Deidara/Tenten
Tenten had never understood why Shikamaru enjoyed watching the clouds until now. She laid next to the redeemed Akatsuki member that she was given charge over for the day, and let the wind blow through her unbound hair, mingling it with the blonde locks of the once-missing nin.
"What do you see in that cloud, Deidara-san?" Tenten asked idly.
"It looks like a kunai, un," Deidara replied lazily.
Tenten smiled faintly. "Does everything look like a weapon to you?"
"Mostly, un. Should the clouds look like other things?" Deidara asked, curious.
"Well, I think that one over there looks like a rabbit," Tenten answered.
Tenten could feel the frown that crossed Deidara's face and chuckled. "You're still not used to peace, are you?"
"It is...different, un. I spent so much time hiding and fighting that it's difficult to adjust to, un," Deidara answered.
"I see," Tenten replied.
Silence fell between the two of them, and Tenten closed her eyes to the sun. Cloud-watching and lazing in the fields was a wonderful way of wasting time.
