Deidara frowned and replied, "You're cold because you've been out in the rain for so long. You'll have to tell me what you've been up to once we've warmed you up, hmm."
The blonde turned towards the gate and quickly turned back to Sasori. "Ne, Sasori. Keys?"
The red head mechanically reached for the keys in his pocket. They weren't there. Damn! He must have left him in his pants at Tobi and Zetsu's apartment when he switched his clothes from something in Tobi's closet.
"I dropped them," came the response from the frail boy after a moment or two.
His eye twitching, Deidara pressed the buzzer once more; he would have to talk to Chiyo again. "Chiyo-baa, Sasori's home."
The gate slowly slid open and Deidara ushered Sasori inside the courtyard. The rain still fell down in heavy sheets, if Deidara had gotten any dryer talking to Chiyo inside, he was wet again. The blonde cursed the weather for turning for the worse.
Reaching the cover of the house, Deidara rapped on the door and Chiyo let them both in. She raised her eyebrows at Sasori but did not scold him or speak to him. Instead, she addressed Deidara, "Take him to his room. Remember our talk, boy."
Sasori's eyes narrowed. He didn't particularly like that Chiyo and Deidara had talked without him present. His hostility faded when he figured that Chiyo would probably be on his side. It was lucky for him that Chiyo was looking out for him at the least since Deidara had a hard time putting his priorities straight...
"What's wrong with you?" Deidara's voice interrupted his thoughts. "I repeated myself twice and you didn't answer."
The smaller boy glanced away when he felt Deidara's gaze on him. "Please say it once more. I'm listening now," he courtly replied.
Deidara huffed and swung the door to Sasori's room open. "I was saying, for the third time, that we're going to have a talk, hmm." The blonde looked about Sasori's room. A few art tools sat in the middle of the floor. Strange for Sasori since he always kept his room spotless. He strode over to them, picked them up, and placed them in their rightful place. He turned to see Sasori still in the doorway. A worried look fluttered across Deidara's face and he spoke to his boyfriend, "What are you doing, hmm?"
Sasori seemed startled. Deidara sighed at how jumpy Sasori was. He crossed the room and helped Sasori to his bed. Sitting Sasori down on the bed, Deidara sat next to him and touched Sasori's shoulder. He seemed to be shaking.
"Sasori...?"
Dark, mournful eyes looked up to him and Deidara felt his heart skip with pain. He didn't know that going to Gifudai meant so much to his boyfriend. He'd decide by the end of the night what he'd do...
"Yes, Deidara?" was the reply.
Deidara inhaled deeply before continuing. As much as he hated it, he was putting his choices in stone now. He was making life changing, eternal decisions. The thought scared him, he quickly continued before he knew he'd chicken out. "Convince me to go to Gifudai, hmm."
Sasori's dark brown eyes bore into his own blue eyes; Deidara shivered slightly. But Sasori's voice was soft as he said, "You should go because I'll be there." To Sasori, this was as sarcastic as any reply could be. To him, Deidara shouldn't have any kind of internal debate about going to Gifudai because that is where he would be. And because Sasori would be there, Deidara would have to go, too. It was so simple, but Deidara didn't realize it.
"Yeah, Sasori-danna, I know... That's why I'm considering it, hmm," Deidara leaned backwards on the bed and rested his elbows behind himself, propping his body up. He glanced at Sasori, he remained where he sat.
"It'd be a mistake if you didn't go, brat," the words were chilling.
Almost surprised at the tone, Deidara became defensive. "A mistake? How do you know that it would be? Zetsu and Tobi don't think it'll be, hmm."
A small smile came to Sasori's face as he answered, "Do they now?"
"Yeah, they do!" Deidara was losing his temper. "You know what Sasori-danna? I tried so hard to get you to hang out with us and you would just go quiet and I could tell you hated them. You would just... sulk around instead, hmm!"
Rage and hate flared deep inside Sasori at these words. Of course Deidara would find a way to make him look like the one in trouble. How backwards that was! But then there was a pause and then Sasori simply stated, "What should I do then, Deidara?"
"Be normal or talk to them or just... something, hmm," he was still fuming. He looked Sasori up and down once more. "You're even stealing Tobi's style, you two could talk about clothes and..."
Deidara's eyes grew wide as Sasori cut him off, pressing his lips to his. While he had went on his rant, Sasori sensed that Deidara was reaching a bad topic. He'd have to stop Deidara from speaking nonsense like that. And besides? How could Sasori talk to the problem since it was eliminated...? Silly Deidara wasn't making any sense.
The blonde's eyes were wide with confusion as he stared into Sasori's eyes as they kissed. He quickly pushed him away.
"Sasori... you're really... off tonight, hmm," he managed to speak mumble quietly.
The red haired teen's mouth curled up into a smirk, "I'm following your advice. Now I'll really try to convince you and I'll act normal." He inched back closer to Deidara and ran his hands up the blonde's thighs. He slowly moved himself onto Deidara's lap. The blonde still propped himself up on his elbows and warily watched Sasori's moves. "You know I'd do anything for you..."
"I know, hmm..." Deidara cringed but allowed the comment to slide. He'd go along with whatever Sasori's plans were now and see how the night went. Sasori was so fragile and... deep down, he couldn't bear hurting Sasori. He knew Sasori would do anything for him, so the least he could do was go to Gifudai. He had agreed to it in the first place.
Sasori pressed his body up against Deidara's and wrapped his arms around Deidara's shoulders. "I'm glad that's one thing we can agree on," he whispered in Deidara's ear.
The blonde shifted his weight to one side and brought the opposite arm up to stroke Sasori's back. He still sensed that something was wrong but he said, "Me too, hmm."
