Sweets Week

Hello everyone. I'd like to give a shout out to hotarusgirforever and bluewolf963 for their reviews. I know a lot of you read my stories, but they are the main ones that give me feed back. Anyway I know you all are probably wondering what my title means, but you'll find out soon enough. Without further adieu enjoy!

Monday. Some look at this day as the beginning of one horrible day. They can't wait for the week to be over. Monday may have to be just about the most horrible day of the week. It's the day people dread. Children have to go to school. Men and women have to drag their carcasses out of bed, and go to an average day of work. Waiting for Friday. Yep, Monday is just about the most horrible day in the history of days.

But, if Monday is as bad as it is, then why are the women of the akatsuki smiling?

Well, I'll tell you why, today just so happens to be the first day of sweets week. You are all probably asking yourselves what sweets week is. Well, sweet week is the one week of the year where Roni gets up everyday from Monday through Sunday to cook. Yes this sounds an awful lot like thanks giving but it is not. From this Monday to next Sunday, all the girls and guys will be eating, is sweets.

It's like Christmas, except it's not year after year, it's a year Santa chooses and then he gives you presents non stop from Monday to Sunday.

Daikirai was the first to wake up on this glorious Monday morning. She yawned and stretched, until hearing a satisfying pop in her tired joints. She looked on the opposite side of her to see hidan was still sound asleep. So she carefully got out of bed, put on some clothes and ran down stairs.

When she got down stairs, she followed the smell of heaven to the kitchen. It seems Roni was already starting. Daikirai walked, but only made it to the threshold of the kitchen when she saw what Roni cooked today.

Cheesecakes.

But not just any cheesecakes

Chocolate cheesecakes

"Am I the first one up?" Daikirai asked. Roni looked up from her work to turn to her daughter.

"I'm just as surprised as you are, I thought Delilah--"

"Get outta my way! Get outta my way!" Delilah said as she pushed Daikirai out the way and slid into the threshold. Delilah eyed all the chocolate. There were so many of them. There was white chocolate, double chocolate, chocolate fudge, triple chocolate fudge. God, Delilah could have had a heart attack just looking at all this.

"Delilah, take it easy." Daikirai said. Delilah glared at her sister.

"Oh please, you don't even need to eat, why are you even down here." Daikirai shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't need to breath either, my heart doesn't beat, and I'm not even supposed to be up in the morning, but that still doesn't mean I'm gonna miss out on sweets week." Daikirai countered. She knew the sugar was talking for Delilah so she couldn't really blame her for it. Had this been any other time, Delilah would be without a tongue

"What's all the yelling about on this joyous day?" yami asked, she, Kimiko, Yasmina, and the rest of the girls were on their way down stairs when they saw the round shaped pieces of heaven on the table.

"What is this?"

The girls looked back to see the guys staring at the table. Unknowingly to them, asking silent questions in their minds. Including, 'why was Roni wearing a frilly pink apron?' and 'why were there so many cheesecakes on the table?'

"Is this what all the girls were so exited about?" pein asked Roni as she pulled out the crust from the oven.

"He asks that because he hasn't had any of mommy's cooking." Kimiko whispered to Delilah. Pein looked at her, then back to Roni.

"I want to see what all the hype is about this food." Delilah raised an eyebrow and scoffed in protest.

"Well, pein-sama, you're gonna have to get in line because I did not come down here to eat my favorite food, second." Delilah said, no one was gonna stop her from eating chocolate, not even the man that can kill her without as much as a sweat off his brow. Oh well, if she died with chocolate cheesecake in her mouth, she'd die a happy woman. With that thought in mind Delilah squeezed past everyone and took a seat at the table. The guys and pein looked at each other before sitting down at the table. Roni smiled at the men and their curiosity and put a slice in front of everyone. The guys looked at their cake, their heads tilted to the side in confusion. It just looked like a regular cake to them.

"Sooo…who's taking the first piece?" kisame asked. The guys said nothing; they just looked at the seemingly bland looking piece of cheesecake. Zahara rolled her eyes and dipped her finger in zetsu's piece of cake.

"Take it." She stated. Zetsu moved his head slightly from her finger, looking at her confusedly. Zahara sighed in frustration and grabbed his face and stuck her finger in his mouth.

"Zahara what're you…" zetsu's words died on his lips as he closed his mouth to savor the piece of decadent, mouth watering, titillating, savory, scrumptious and all around yummy piece of heaven he just put in his mouth.

"Well, how does it taste?" deidara asked.

"There are no words to describe how… how…sweet Jesus." Zetsu said.

"It's as if my taste buds are dancing and singing. It almost makes me not want to eat humans anymore." The guys gasped. Pein included. The guys looked down at the cake, and then to the girls (who are already on their seconds and thirds by the way) and took a piece.

"Oh…"

"My…"

"GOD!" everyone said in unison. And with that, they nearly dipped their faces on to the plate.

"You guys like it?" Roni asked. Pein looked at her with a look she has never seen before. He looked at her as if he was seeing her for the first time since they met. Like he was reborn.

"Roni…this…this is…why didn't you tell me you have this wonderful gift?" Roni chuckled at him.

"Because you'd all weigh 200 pounds if I cooked regularly."

"But it would be worth it." Hidan said. Everyone nodded their heads, their mouths all filled with cheesecake.

"Alright enough. Hurry up and eat your stuff, it is Monday, which means we have to find suki's sell out." They didn't have to be told twice as they ate more and more of their sweets.

At about 12 noon, itachi and sesshomaru come strolling in the akatsuki hideout. They are on their way out for the day when itachi realizes he left his keys in his room.

"You wait until we're at my door to say you left your keys. You're lucky I tolerate you, uchiha." Itachi shrugged his shoulders.

"It's not like I meant to leave them, and I didn't ask you to come. You came because you wanted to. And because you wouldn't be my friend anymore if you didn't." itachi joked. Sesshomaru smirked at him. As they kept talking sesshomaru stopped. His nose caught scent of something. Something…sweet.

"Itachi?" sesshomaru asked.

"Yes?"

"What's today?"

"Monday. Why?" for a fraction of a second, sesshomaru's eyes widened.

"Where's your kitchen?" itachi raised an eyebrow.

"My keys aren't in the kitchen." Sesshomaru resisted the urge to roll his eyes.

"Just take me to the kitchen, I have to see something." Itachi rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders and lead his friend to the kitchen.

When they got there, sesshomaru's and Itachi's eyes widened, not caring to hide it.

"What's with all the cheesecakes?" Sesshomaru turned to itachi sharply.

"You mean…you don't know what today is?" itachi raised an eyebrow.

"Monday?"

"Oh my god, Ms. Roni hasn't told you about sweets week did she?" itachi raised his other eyebrow.

"Am I supposed to know about it?" itachi asked.

"Wait, how do you know about this 'sweets week' if you don't eat human food?" sesshomaru smirked.

"I don't eat human food."

"Roni's food is human food."

"No it is not. That woman takes pieces of heaven and bakes them in the form of sweets." Itachi bit his lip to keep from bursting out laughing.

"What?"

"There wasn't a manly word in that sentence." Sesshomaru rolled his eyes and grabbed Itachi's hand and dragged him into the kitchen. When they got to one particular cheesecake, sesshomaru cut a slice. He handed itachi the plate.

"Taste it." He stated. Itachi looked down at the cheesecake and then to the demon in front of him.

"I don't eat sweets." Itachi stated back, pushing the cake away from him. Sesshomaru rolled his eyes and pushed the cake back to itachi.

"Have I ever been wrong itachi? Would I give my friend something poisonous?" itachi gave him a look.

"You'd give your brother poison." Itachi said. Sesshomaru shrugged.

"Yes. Is there a problem with that Mr. 'kill my family and leave my brother scared for life.'?" itachi smirked.

"He'll get over it." Sesshomaru shook his head.

"He'll over it when you're dead. Didn't that happen just recently? Your brother just finished beating you within an inch of your life?" itachi shrugged again. They both do this all the time. Had this been anyone else, they'd be dead by now.

"That may be, but he stopped when he was positive I was dead. And thank god for that. I wouldn't want to lose a leg or…" itachi leaned in "...You know what I mean." Sesshomaru smiled this time.

"Yeah. But thank god my limbs regenerate. Hey itachi can I ask you a question?" itachi raised an eyebrow, giving sesshomaru his undivided attention.

"When a tree falls in the forest and no one's around to hear it. Does it make a sound? I've always been curious. I hear the blind have great hearing, so I just wanted to know." Itachi and sesshomaru looked at each other for a while after that comment.

"But on a serious note, eat the cheesecake, it's delicious." Sesshomaru said. Itachi rolled his eyes and snatched to the cheesecake from him and took the tiniest piece possible. At first he chewed to get it down quickly but a moment later when the divine piece of morsel slipped down his throat, he found himself wondering that maybe if he stuck his tongue down his throat, the up chuck might taste like it. A sick thought, yes, but you have to taste the cheesecake.

"Well?"

"Okay. You were right. This isn't human food. This is other worldly. Why doesn't she do this every year?" itachi wondered aloud. Sesshomaru scoffed.

"If she did this every year, I'd move kaze and the kids in here. C'mon, we have to go." Itachi nodded, took two cheese cakes, got his keys and left.
