Me: Well I don't have much to say other than, I started working on this the same day that I posted chapter nine… So hopefully I don't get writers block for this again… Heh… But I really don't have much to say other than……………………………ON WITH THE SHOW/STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Recap:

I stared at Deidara for a minute before looking over to Alex. She had a confused look on her face, but I just waved it off, "Y-Yeah, I'm not pissed anymore…" I was just confused, happy, worried, surprised, and felt like I was about to blow up with everything that happened in just one day of the freaking Akatsuki being in my house.

"Ok then come out!!" Alex said.

Deidara quickly got up and walked right past her and out to everyone else. I didn't blame him…

"What's his problem? Abby did you yell at him too?"

I almost didn't hear her, my head was still spinning. "Huh? Oh…no Alex I-I didn't do anything."

She looked at me funny, "Abby. What. Happened?"

I hated when she looked at me like that. I couldn't ever lie!!

"W-Well, you see, I blame you all for forcing him in here! But…he…well, umm he, er we…well…uhh…you see…umm," I was stammering. Alex caught it—anyone could—and closed my door and came over to sit next to me.

"Did he try to rape you?" She asked seriously.

I laughed, "No he didn't."

"Then what??"

"…If you hadn't had come in when you did we would have…ummm……kissed?" Yes I did put a question mark at the end of my sentence!! Sue me.

Alex's eyes went wide and she stared at me. "H-He what?"

"He should be we first off, and second, nothing happened…because you came in right when it would have. So let's just drop it for right now ok?"

I tried to get up but she just pulled me back down, "No way! You aren't going anywhere until you explain what happened in here!!"

I sighed; there was no getting around Alex when she wanted to know something. If I didn't tell her now she'd go ask Deidara, but he may not tell her, so she'd just ask and ask and ask in front of all of them and make her own assumptions. "Fine! We were just talking and he said that he liked me too and we almost kissed when you came in! That's it!" She still gave me an odd look. I narrowed my eyes at her, "Scout's honor," I held up two—yes two, that's what we do—fingers to her and her face went back to normal.

With Alex and I, when the other is asking you something and they think you're lying you just have to hold up two fingers instead of three for the Scout's honor thing. It also helps when you're explaining it to someone else and if you want to lie you can hold up three and say it, then the other knows you're still lying…yes it is complicated, but that's how we are.

"Ok," she said, "but you know that now it's going to be my mission to get you two in bed together!!"

If I had been drinking I would have spit it out everywhere, "EXCUSE ME?!" I pretty much yelled.

Alex just started laughing, "I'm kidding!! I know you plan on staying virgin forever!"

I laughed with her, "If I do, then you have to, too!"

We were both having a laughing fit when everyone came in to see what was going on—minus a certain blond…hmm where did he go?

"Are they going to die?" Kisame said.

"Perhaps," Sasori put in.

"Can I eat them then? No we can't eat them. But— No. Fine, killjoy." Zetsu said.

We finally caught our breath and stood up. 'Course I had to stand up to face Mason…yippee….

I sighed, "Why the hell are you still here?"

"Abby I thought you weren't pissed anymore!" Alex said.

"Yeah well I wasn't, until I saw him!" I pointed at Mason.

"Tch, whatever."

Then I remembered something: I almost kissed Deidara when I was dating Mason…wow I almost cheated on my first boyfriend…heh…oops?

"HOLY MOTHER OF GRAVY!!!" I yelled.

"What??" Alex asked.

Everyone looked over to me.

Maybe shouting randomly isn't that good of an idea, ne?

Oh shut up!

"Uhhh," I said, "Umm I thought I saw a spider…?"

"Are you fucking serious?" Hidan asked.

"Yes, yes I am!"

"You're afraid of a fucking spider?!" He asked again.

"Yes, yes I fucking am!"

"Abby, are you quoting Phineas and Ferb?" Alex asked.

"Yes, yes I am!!" I said.

"Ugh, shut up!" Kisame said.

"You shut up fish sticks!" I yelled at him. Then I remembered I was still pissed at Mason. "And you," I pointed at Mason again, "I'll ask again, why in fucking hell is your damn ass still in my house?" I didn't wait for a reply as I stormed out of my room and out to the living room. I sat in my dad's recliner. It is very comfy!

Right after I sat I saw Deidara sitting on the couch before everyone else came into the living room. We stared at each other until everyone started to come in.

Mason walked over to my chair and sighed, "Can I just talk to you for a minute?"

"Sure," I sat up straight and crossed my arms and legs—you know a girl is pissed when we cross our arms and legs, "Talk."

"I meant alone."

Before I had time to answer he grabbed my wrist and pulled me out to my back porch and closed the sliding glass door.

"What do you want?! Aren't you done criticizing me for one day?? Or do you still want to put down your own girlfriend, hmmm?? You are so lucky that my brain has been frazzled all day to the point that I haven't even thought of dumping your sorry ass until now! You know that actually sounds like a pretty good idea—"

"I'm sorry, ok?"

I stared at him for a minute. "Excuse me?"

"You heard me. I said I was sorry."

I raised my eyebrow and crossed my arms, "Is that so? Well I don't really know how keen I am to believing you right now."

"I know, and you have every right to be angry with me, but I really am sorry."

I sighed, "Mason how many times have you said you're sorry about something to me? A lot. And how many of those times have you been lying? Well let me answer that for you! Every. Single. One. I'm surprised that I'm even still with you!!"

He winced, "I know but this time I really do mean it."

I pursed my lip in a thinking manner before saying, "Explain."

"I'm pretty sure that this goes without saying, but Chris and I are jealous of Itachi and Deidara." He said 'Deidara' almost as if it burned his tongue. It probably did. "So can you really blame us—" I eyed him, he sighed, "Can you really blame me for accusing you?"

"Yes I can! If that's how you're going to act because I have the Akatsuki in my house then you can just leave now!"

Mason took a step towards me, I took one back.

"Unless you can promise me that you won't act jealous or like you think I'll throw myself at them like a common slut I don't want you in this house, or anywhere near me ever again. Can you promise me that?" It hurt when I said 'slut', because the way that he was saying all of that, he was pretty much calling me that. Of course it would make me a little teary-eyed and sting when I finally thought about that. I guess that my anger was fading and the underlying emotion of sadness was finally coming to the surface.

I was sad that the first guy to say that he loved just called me a whore. Who wouldn't?

"I'm sorry, and I promise that it won't happen again." I continued to stand there and let him walk over to me. He pulled me into a hug and whispered in my ear, "Also, I never called you a slut…and if that's how it seemed, I'm sorry. I never meant for it to come out like that at all."

"I know," I murmured, "but you never thought that I'd take it like that, you never thought I'd think you were calling me a whore."

We stood there a minute longer as I let some of the tears overflow, but I quickly brushed them away and at some point the sad tears turned into angry ones. Angry because I was frustrated that I was letting myself cry in front of anyone that wasn't my mom or Alex. Damn teen girl hormones. They are going in my Death Note!!

I finally got under control and broke away from Mason, took a deep breath and said, "Ok I'm good. Let's go back in now."

He nodded and we walked back in. I really did feel better now that Mason had apologized and everything. That is, I felt better until I entered and saw Deidara. I couldn't believe I had forgotten all about the fact that he almost kissed me! I froze on the spot and just stared at him.

Everyone else was off doing something else in the house. Mason went over with Chris and Alex, while I stopped just inside the doorway to the porch.

Alex saw my sudden upset—she was the only one, thank the ninja gods from above—and came over to me. "Abby are you ok? What did Mason do?"

I didn't answer, I just stared ahead at Deidara, he didn't notice though.

"Abby? What did he do?! You can tell me!" Alex put her hand on my shoulder.

I shook my head, "No, it's not what Mason did." She looked confused so I clarified, "It's what I did Alex! Oh God what's wrong with me??" I pretty much fell over and leaned on the wall—if it wasn't there then I'd have actually drawn attention to me by falling on my face. Oh how graceful that would have been!

"Abby what do you mean??" Alex asked urgently.

"Alex, I already told you. I almost kissed Deidara!"

She let out a low chuckle, "Abby are you really getting worked up over that??"

I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Ab," That's her nickname for me, "you all almost kissed! You didn't! So technically it's not cheating. And even if it was, it's just one kiss. Not much trouble."

I shook my head, "But it's Deidara. And Mason's my first boyfriend! What would it say if I were to cheat on my first boyfriend Alex??"

She sighed, "Well you didn't kiss so just forget it for now, ok? As long as it doesn't happen again, then you're fine!"

"But—!"

"You will be fine if it doesn't happen again, ok??" She stared me down.

I was about to reply when the phone rang. Thank Kami that the Akatsuki had already been here a week, so it didn't really startle them a lot, but they all did jump somewhat.

I ran over to the phone and looked at the caller I.D. It was my mom. All concern over what had just happened left my mind to be replaced with joy that I'd be able to talk to my mom and dad before they leave…and that the Akatsuki were being as loud as can be.

"GAH! SHHH!! PEOPLE SHUT UP IT'S MY MOM! IF SHE HEARS YOU ALL THEN YOU ARE ALL DONE FOR!" With that they all quieted. Wow, I have the power of the force!!

Oh shut it! You've never even seen Star Wars!

Your point?

Just answer the phone!

I hit the 'talk' button and put the phone to my ear, "Hello?"

"Hey hun, we finally made it to the ship and got settled. Just called to tell ya." I heard my mom say.

"Oh yeah! Ummm thanks for the call, mom. I hope that you all have fun on the cruise! I guess I'll talk to you all when you get there?"

"Now hold on! You're father and I want to talk to you before we can't for a week. Just let me put it on speaker." I waited until I heard her again, "Can you hear us?"

"Yes mom."

"Hey Abby." I heard my dad.

"Hey dad! So are we good now?" I just wanted to hang up already so as not to risk them hearing the Akatsuki.

"Is Alex there yet?" Mom asked.

I groaned, "Yes mom, Alex is here."

"Put in on speaker so we can talk to her." My dad said.

There was no way I could put in on speaker! If the Akatsuki slipped up then it was all over. Especially if it was on speaker phone—on normal phone I could just blame it on the T.V. "Umm she's…umm…in the bathroom right now. 'Could be awhile. You'll just have to talk to her when you finally get to Hawaii." I saw Alex twitch while Mason and Chris chuckled. I rolled my eyes.

"Oh well then I guess we'll just talk to you all once we get there." Mom said.

"Yeah I guess so."

"Hey, Abby you two are being careful without us right? I don't want to come back to find the house burned down." Dad said.

I laughed, "No the house is still alive." Of course when he said the thing about burning down the house that just made me think of a certain blond blowing up my house…which made me sad…again…damn…damn, damn, damn!!

"Abby, are you ok?" My mom asked. Moms could always tell when you were sad…damn mom superpowers!!!

"Huh? Oh yeah I'm fine mom, really." I hated lying to my mom, but it's not like I could tell her everything. Especially not in front of everyone—they had all re-entered the living room from wherever they were.

"You know that you can tell us anything right?"

I could almost feel my heartstrings being pulled. I know that it's really cheesy and cliché, but my mom has always been the one that I go to about everything. If she doesn't know something, then Alex does, and if neither of them knows something about me, no one does. My mom not being here for two months is going to be hard, I knew that, but I never expected this to happen! If I knew all this was going to fall in my lap then I'd never have let them go. "Yeah, mom, I know. Don't worry. If anything happens I have Alex, ok?"

She sighed, "Alright, I love you Abby, be safe."

"I love you too, and be safe," dad put in.

"I love you both too, and don't worry; I'll be as safe as I can with Alex here." I laughed and me and my parents finally hung up. For the first time in my whole life I wouldn't be able to contact either of my parents for a whole week. Sure I've been over at my cousin's house for over a week without my parents, but I was still able to talk to them whenever I wanted to. Now, I couldn't talk to either of them during one week of what will probably be the most important two months of my entire life.

As I put the phone back into its charger and looked at everyone I smiled and said, "Let's get you all in some clothes now, shall we?" And walked out to my dad's truck with Alex, Mason, and Chris, got the bags, brought them in, and started the long task of remembering what article of clothing went with which murderer.

After finally getting clothes for all of them, we sent them into rooms and made them change. It was quite an experience whenever we finally got the correct pair of boxers for each person. Chris and Mason laughed at Alex, my, and Konan's expressions whenever that came up.

Soon the boys came out dressed in proper attire. Most of them just had on some sort of t-shirt and a pair of jeans—I say most because Zetsu just had a big coat on. He said that it was just fine for him. Good!

By then it was about dinner time and I realized that I hadn't eaten since breakfast—Alex said that while Mason and I were gone she made them Mac'n'cheese. It took about five boxes—the rest of it—to feed all of them. Well at least we know they like that….

Actually cooking dinner and eating it wasn't all that bad, it was what happened before and after dinner that was a pain. Two words: Alex—no duh—and youtube. She pretty much showed them every single funny picture video, fanflash, Caramelldansen, Numa Numa, and AMV that she could fit into the small span of time she had until dinner. She turned up the volume so I'd know what was going on while in the kitchen. I was laughing through all the cooking of frozen pizza.

When I came over to see what they were watching once I saw that it was the video of Tobi and Deidara Caramelldansen. Only me, Alex, Chris, and Mason laughed. Everyone else was scarred for life—course that happened with every video but still.

Once the food was ready I handed out slices and we went back to watching what we could on there. We couldn't watch things that hadn't happened yet. For instance we couldn't watch any AMVs about any of them that had video in it. That would give away a lot of stuff since they hadn't even reached Shippuuden yet and that's where pretty much all of them made their debut.

Some of the things that they saw they liked. Most of the AMVs they liked…but most of the fanflashes……they wanted to find the people and kill them. Who could blame them? They were funny! So that means that they'd have to be horrible to the people they are about, right? Well you are right.

Soon it was 8:00—no clue how time could have passed so quickly—and Chris was getting a text saying that they had to head home.

Alex and I walked them to the door and while Alex was saying good-bye to Chris I asked Mason, "You remember what we talked about earlier right? That you won't think anything of leaving them here alone with us."

He smiled and nodded, "Yeah don't worry ok?"

I smiled back and said, "Ok good. Well I guess that I'll see you all tomorrow?" I looked to my side to see that Chris had dragged Alex off somewhere…well shit. Now don't you go thinking that Chris is trying anything on Alex or vice versa! Oh no! Of course this has to happen the day that my mind is the most confused it's ever been….

In one short explanation: Mason and I have been going out for a few months now—I don't know how that happened either—and like I said before, my lips are still virgin. Odd ain't it? Well we usually never get any time alone sooooo yeah…but, hey, look! We're alone now! Any other night before now and I might have been fine with it…but considering recent events I find it amazing that Mason would try anything…men…odd creatures they are!

Oh, hey, look again! Once again the guy's face that is in front of me is getting closer…. Well you know what I have to say to that? Fuck…just plain old fuck…

Before he can really get any closer I jump away like he's a vampire about to suck my blood. Though that would be awesome!

He looks at me confused.

"Eh heh, heh, heh, I bet you're wondering why I did that" Well no chizz Sherlock! "…well…" I sighed, "Mason today has been a very long, very confusing day. I'm sorry."

He sighed an irritated sigh…men! I will kill them all!!! Heh…

I sighed too at his irritated sigh, "Ok what's the freaking problem now??"

He didn't even hesitate to get to the point…odd…no wait, that's not odd…I think…hmmm…oh yeah, what he was going to say, "We have been going out for how many months? And we haven't even kissed yet!" Geez he sounded like the girl in the relationship here…wait…that would make me the guy!!! Nooooo!!!!

I growled at him—yes growled, got a problem? "I have had the most stressful day ever, so please, not now."

Mason smirked, "You know what could relieve stress?'

I went over and flicked him in the head, "Get your mind out of the gutter or you'll never get anything out of me."

He rubbed his forehead, "Ow, geez I was kidding!"

I giggled, "Right, of course you are. Now get back to Chris's before his parents kill you two." With that I went back into my house to see that Alex was already there. "Where'd Chris go?"

Alex sighed and rolled her eyes, "He pushed me in here and told me to stay and then left. I tried to tell him that now wasn't good, but you know them."

"Yeah I know, so I guess I don't really have to tell you what happened out there?"

"Nope."

After that I decided that we could just watch a movie until it was late enough for sleep. I popped in Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl and we all took a seat somewhere in my living room.

"What the fuck is this?" Hidan asked.

"A movie about cursed and sexy pirates." Alex said matter-of-factly.

He raised an eyebrow but I shushed him before he could say anymore, "Shh! You'll like it if you just shut up, listen to it, and give it a chance!"

"Aren't you just the little bossy girl?" Kisame said.

"Yeah and if you really want to see her bossy just wait about another week!" Alex said.

I threw the remote at her head, "They don't need to know about those things!"

Konan gave me a knowing look while all the guys looked at me oddly.

"Owww Abby that was my head!!!" Alex said and broke the silence.

"Oh don't worry I don't think that anything too important is in there." Kisame said and Hidan chuckled.

She smirked, "Itachi! Kakuzu! You're partners in crime and love are being mean!!" Oh how Alex loved being blunt.

All four men twitched while everyone else laughed.

"Tobi doesn't get it." Guess who said.

"Is he even old enough to know these things, hm?" That's when I finally realized where I was sitting. I was on the floor sitting between Alex and Konan—Alex was next to Itachi and Konan was next to Pein…awwwwww—but guess who was sitting on the couch behind me? Yup…ORLANDO BLOOM! Whoa how'd he get out of my T.V.?

Yes Deidara was behind me. I was pretty much, more or less, sitting between his legs…enter awkward silence for me. I felt my face heat up and I was so happy that we turned off the lights for the movie.

"Who fucking knows? He probably isn't." Hidan said as he recovered from his momentary shock.

After that we all watched the movie and Alex and I quoted certain parts, such as when Jack Sparrow finally enters and he comes sailing in on his sinking ship and does all his funny stuff. Oh how we love this movie. Of course I never forgot that I was sitting right under Deidara. I tried to forget throughout the movie, but after quoting something or another I'd let my mind wander and then I'd feel the leg beside me and remember. I didn't really know how to feel about this though….

I didn't know what time it was—it was around when Jack and Elizabeth were on the island alone—but I started to nod off. I could feel it, but I didn't say anything. I was too tired. So naturally my head started to go to one side…along with the rest of my body and soon I felt myself leaning against Deidara's leg almost asleep…. Oh dear lord kill me now! This could be one of the most embarrassing things ever…or at least it would be if I were more awake and could hear everyone's snickers at the scene of me leaning against his leg.

Well to me it felt like I was just leaning, but you know how you sleep with a second pillow that you hold on to at night? Well his leg was my pillow right now. I was pretty much clinging to his leg like a Koala bear.

The reason he didn't kick me off was because he was also nodding off…hmm.

I have to remember to thank Konan because she apparently got tired of them making fun of us and poked me awake.

As I say again, thank you dear ninja lords for making me turn off the lights!!! Though I bet my face was its own light being as red as it felt.

Hidan, Kisame, Sasori, Zetsu, and even Kakuzu were chucking/laughing at my expression and Deidara's. Oh I'll never live this down with them! But at least he wasn't still in his towel…heh. Wouldn't that have been something? Espicially since at one point in the movie when I quoted something he asked exactly how many times I have seen this and I looked up at him from my spot to tell him that I didn't rightly know. Kami if he had had the towel…IMAGES!!!

I looked over to the clock to see that it was 10:30 and the second Pirates of the Caribbean was playing. So I just ignored them and leaned against Alex and watched. Oh how hot Orlando Bloom could make a pirate!

Nothing too exciting happened through there…unless you count the fact that Tobi finally had to go to the bathroom for the first time that day—most of them hadn't yet though…pfft they were afraid of the toilet! Wow they really are cats! So when he went in, I don't know now, and I don't want to know, but he somehow managed to overflow the toilet before he even went! That takes major skill….

So after we mopped that up and Alex and I comforted Tobi telling him that he was still a good boy I finally decided that it was time for bed. This rose a question that I hadn't thought about yet today: Where were they all going to sleep?

"Shit." I said when we all made our way back to the living room.

"What?" Alex said through a yawn.

"We're all tired and we need to get to bed."

"Ok, well let's go then…"

"Tell me Alex, where are they all going to sleep?"

Silence. No one said anything.

At least until, "I am not turning back into that fucking cat form! No way in hell!!" Hidan said.

"I agree with Hidan, I am not going back to that form unless it's absolutely necessary." Pein said.

"Ok well let me think about this for a minute," I said.

Apparently Alex had been thinking about this for some time, because she shook her head and smirked a very evil and perverted smirk, "Well we should keep them with their partners, I mean they're used to sleeping together after all." I face palmed, but that wasn't even the least of the meaning of her smirk, "And how about two to a room? For example: Tobi and Zetsu can sleep out here, Pein and Konan can sleep in her dad's bed, Hidan and Kakuzu can sleep on the floor in there, Itachi and Kisame can sleep on the floor of her mom's room, they can't sleep in the bed because that's where I am, and Deidara and Sasori can be in Abby's room."

I went over and Abby-Gibbs-Slapped her. "Baka you just want to make me suffer and you just want to sleep in the same room as Itachi!"

She blushed but continued in a whispered voice to me, "And get Pein and Konan in the same bed."

I laughed but was still annoyed, "Well why the hell does Deidara of all people have to be in my room??"

"Because Pein and Konan need to be in the same bed, I want Itachi in my room, Kisame needs to be in the same room as him because I'm just OCD like that, and do you really want Hidan or Kakuzu in your room when you're asleep??"

We both looked over to Hidan who heard the last of what we said and was smirking the most perverted smirk ever.

"I'd rather Jiraiya be in there! He at least has some decency!" I said.

"…True."

Hidan fell over anime style, "You all are so cruel!"

"OMFJ HE DIDN'T CUSS!" Alex and I said in unison.

He narrowed his eyes at us, "You want cursing? Ok then: (This has been censored to the fact that this is a T rated fanfic and the authoress can't curse out anyone to save her life. Thank you for understanding.)

We all stared at him in awe. After we recovered and I argued with Alex a bit more I finally gave in as did everyone else.

Alex and I went to change into PJs and left Konan in charge until we got back.

Once we were done we got them all bedding for the ground and set that up, then went to bed.

Not before telling all of them that they were only to get up if they couldn't sleep—and if that was the case to go outside—, if they had to pee—Alex and her bluntness—, or if they wanted water or something, and not to go into anyone's room—Alex's and mine—unless it was absolutely necessary.

Pein, Konan, Kakuzu, and Hidan went into my dad's room, Tobi and Zetsu went to the living room, Alex, Itachi, and Kisame went to my mom's room leaving me with Deidara and Sasori in my room.

I just walked over to my bed and told them to sleep wherever they wanted.

Right after I got into my bed I heard Sasori say, "You do know that since I'm a puppet I won't be sleeping?"

My hand paused on its way to turn off the light, "As long as you don't try to rape me or do anything criminal I'm fine with it, ok?"

He nodded.

"Oh and," I said, "Since you won't be sleeping, if I can't sleep I may just talk to you until I can sleep." I turned off the light with a smile before he could say anything.

It really didn't affect me as much to be sleeping in the same room as Deidara in Sasori when the lights were off…which that should just make me more afraid…but I'm just odd like that.

My first night sleeping with full-out Akatsuki members in my house was pretty quiet. It's what happened in the span of the next few weeks that will leave me almost fully drained of everything that I have.

Me: Ok well first off, yes there was fluff between Abby and Mason but that is important for later!! And sorry if this seemed like a rushed chapter…it's the longest yet!!! DEAL WITH IT!!!

Deidara: There wasn't much with me in here

Akatsuki: Or us!!

Me: I know, I know! I need to develop things with the OCs! It's vital to the plot of the story! Don't worry people…this will not turn out to be like those AkatOC stories where it only focuses on the OCs! I hope you all can patiently wait for everything!! Trust me it will all be worth the wait for what I have planned…x3

Oh and suggestions are still appreciated! I will listen and consider each one! But some may not be usable!! I have to say that right now! Yours may not be able to be used! Send them in anyways! And…REVIEW!!! And I shall say this again: Sorry if it seemed rushed!! This is a very long chapter! Longest yet! Please understand!! I really just want to get to the plot already—Whoa there's a plot, o.o?—but in a non-rushed way XD. So please don't say anything about the rushed feel of this!!
