Chapter 10: Preparation for Christmas!
For some strange reason- which worries me, Deidara and Sasori are more excited then usual, Hidan and Kakuzu are more relaxed, and everyone just seems... happier.... I just don't understand!
"Sachi," I turned around when I heard Deidara call me. "Sachi-Chan, do you know what the date is?" I turned to the calender- we were in the kitchen, and it said December eighth.
"December eighth... why?" I asked half-hazordlesly, I considered, what could be so special about this date?
"So you don't know...? Well, un, today we put up the decorations for christmas!" I stared blankly as Deidara spoke, I honestly didn't have a clue what he was talking about... Christmas? A holiday I presumed. After a moment, Deidara regestered the look on my face, and his eyes went like, HUGE!
"You don't remember Christmas, un?" I shook my head at him, he screamed- I mean it, he balso began to point and wave at me and run around the kitchen like a headless chicken. I sighed, sitting down waiting for them to blame Tobi.
"SASORI-DAMA!!! HELP!" Deidara screamed, I had to plug my ears with my fingers he was so loud. I stared at my untouched breakfast, knowing there would be a meeting soon enough to explain to me. I liked what was in the bowl too, coco-pops!
"What? What happened? Was it Tobi?" Sasori said, running in and stopping when he noticed Deidara pointing. At me.
"Sachi-Chan," He began in a softer tone, "Are you alright? Did Tobi do some-" I shook my head standing up, looking at the still panicking Deidara.
"Dei-Kun, relax. Tobi didn't do anything, I don't know what Christamas is." I said quickly, hoping he wouldn't notice the blush that was starting to fall across my nose.
"Y-YOUDON'TKNOWWHATCHRISTMASIS??" I stared as he composed himself and began again.
"You don't know what Christamas is?" I nodded to him, Sasori-Kun was alot easier to speak to the Dei-Kun at times, especially when it came to not knowing things.
"Okay, well, looks like its time for another meeting!" Sasori said running out of the room excitedly, why couldn't he just explain it to me? It would be so much easier!
"Get comfy, un." I looked at Deidara and then cocked my eyebrow at the empty glass on the table, and then his dripping wet hair.
"I thought it would calm me down, un."
"Did it?" He nodded and sat down, and patted on his knee's for me to sit with him, I complied, why wouldn't I sit with Deidara!
"This will probably be long,un" I shook my head.
"It's just a holiday right?" I watched as Deidara's eyes sharpened, okay so it wasn't just a holiday!
"Christmas is big at the base, we rarely gather all together for a meeting, but we do for Christmas." I nodded, still not getting why it was such a big buzz about the holiday. Deidara and Sasori over the past few months had become my best friends, they were kind and definitly cool. But, when they went on missions together, I felt so alone, even if the others were here.
- --------------- --------------------
"Well, Sachi, today we put up the Christmas decorations." Pain sighed, finishing up on the prolonged meeting, due to Tobi's sudden hunger for a certain plant man. It was sort of funny in my opinion, Tobi had decided he wanted to be a vegetarian from now on, so he thought that it would be alright to eat Zetsu!
"You're still giggling, un. You found it that funny?" Deuidara whispered into my ear, I nodded swiftly back to him, unable to control my laughter when his hand began to trace up the back of my spine. It was awfully tickleish!
"Say, un... Do you have the tickles?" I looked at Deidara, managing to keep a straight face- to my amazement!
"No.." I murmured, unsure of what would happen from Deidara. My worries and fears were confirmed when I seen Deidara's sly grin appear quickly on his face and suddenly disappear when he seen me look at him.
"Dei-Kun...?"
"What, un? Come on lets go put up the decorations!" I nodded, getting off of his knee's and stretching.

I stared at the pretty lights, that twinkled on the fir tree, I smiled so widely as I looked at the Christmas tree. Tinsel wrapped around the trunk and the fairy lights were in multi-colors, pink, blue, green, red, orange! There were so many! The decorations were beautiful! I looked at the baubels and the balls that hung from the tree, black and silver painted ones. Small little puppets that were definitly made by the expert in the puppeteering Akatsuki, all of them were there, I wasn't but I didn't mind!
I stared at each one, looking at Itachi's in particular detail, his even had thos lines that were ion his face, but what I was looking at was the amazing detail, well- in his eyes. The mangekyo was there definitly! I seen the red and black, it was cool, yet frightening at the same time.
"Sachi-Chan," I looked around, sad to lift my eyes from the little figurine, I stared at them all who were gathered in front of me, and seen the small box in Sasori-s hand.
"Here's an early Christmas present." I lifted my eyebrow, as the box was put into my hand, it was wrapped so neatly,
"Kisame-san wrapped it, un. The only thing he can do right." Deidara said, Sasori and Itachi chuckled.
"Don't ruin her moment." Pain said, glaring at Deidara.
"Th-Thanks!" I looked at the box, not wanting to open it, but was being goaded by all of their eyes staring at me. So I began to open the wrapping paper. I watched as the two layers fell, little "Santa Clauses" as Pain had said earlier, hit the floor. I opened the box...
AND I WAS IN IT!!
"Wha-" I stammered, going red, I looked up at the eyes and faces, that were all smiling (even Itachi- score!).
" Now their is one of you as well for the Christmas tree." Itachi said, I smiled at them all, unable to believe what I was seeing.
"'Cause you're part of this fucking fucked up family now." Hidan said, grinning widely.
"Just don't spend to much of the budget, got it?" Kakuzu said, glaring at Hidan- he was still mad at Hidan even if he didn't say it aloud for the bottle of wine at Holloween.
"So where do I put it on the tree?" I felt someones warm hand grab my own, and tug it near the top, I had blinked so when I had opened my eyes, my heart lept when I seen it was Itachi!
"Itachi-sama?" He glanced at me, pulling my hand beside his own figurine, and placed mine beside his- score again!
"I'm sick of being put away from everyone else, you'll join me on this part of the tree?" He looked at me and I couldn't say anything- for once I've had nothing to say, my mind was completely blank, so I did what anyone who couldn't speak for the moment would do, I nodded, and boy did I nod!
"It's SNOWING!!" Tobi yelled, running to where we were- funny I thought he'd been here this entire time... haha.
