Let's take a deep breath, think about what has happened and... GO TO THE BEACH! Haha some relaxation for the crew. Enjoy guys 3


I was so excited I could almost just explode! Even with so much shit piling up Konan brought up a fantastic idea. Since school was ending, and because everyone was going to go their separate ways, that we all should try and get together as much as possible. Like most of the guys didn't already half way live at my house anyways. That was beside the point, so here I lay on soft green grass of the early summer with Sasuke. We were going to the beach today! The whole group, plus Sasuke and Ino. Kisame had a car load so I decided to get a ride with Itachi. I was instructed to help him move some furniture into the garage 'cause he was getting ready to move. I found out he was going to the same collage as Zetsu. I heard a loud crash come from the house behind me but me and Sasuke just continued to watch the clouds and play with this fun little laser we found snooping through his elder brother's crap.

"I wonder how far the laser reaches."

I questioned as I saw a faint red dot on the leaves of a nearby tree.

"Not sure. Looks pretty heavy duty though. I wonder what it's for."

"Maybe your brother is from a scary underground criminal organization and it used to be on a rifle he used to sharp shoot with!?"

Another loud crash and something breaking could be heard in the house. A loud string of curse words and a scolding from his mother could be heard. Sasuke and I just looked at each other and laughed. What a crazy thought, like Itachi could be a criminal who kills people! I had to admit, spending the night at the Uchiha home was awesome.

I spent most of the time with Sasuke and scheming against his brother. Like the one prank we pulled, I hid around the corner and waiting for my cue. Itachi's father just went into the shower of one bathroom and Sasuke, until he initiated the plan by 'spilling' his drink on Itachi, after a few words he came around and I shut the bathroom door with a devious grin. The look on his face was one I will never let leave my memory. Pay back for taking up my bathroom so many times is a reeeaaal bitch! I chuckled to myself at the memory.

I saw a plane begin to fly by over the clouds, it was pretty low and small, somebodies private plane no doubt. I nudged Sasuke and pointed to it.

"See if the laser can reach the plane there."

He held up the laser and tried to aim it up as best as he could. It was too far for me to actually see.

"Can you see it?"

"No."

"Damn, that would be cool if it reached."

"It's Itachi's you can't expect it to actually be cool."

"Hahaha!"

"Sasuke, Kawako, can you come help Itachi please!"

We sighed in sync as Sasuke's mother called us out on our skip out on work schedule.

I sat in the front seat of Itachi's car, Sasuke, Sasori and Kakuzu were in the back. We are to meet everybody at the beach around 1... It was already 1:15, it seems Itachi was useless and actually spilled all his boxes, so we had to help clean them up which made us late. He of course blamed us 'cause we didn't help him to begin with like we apparently said we would. We didn't dwell on it though, but I'm not expecting to be able to stay at the Uchiha's anymore, well not as long as Itachi is there. His dad caught on to mine and Sasuke's schemes and scolded us pretty bad, making sure one bathroom was empty at all costs unless supervised that one of us wasn't planning something.

The beach we pulled up to wasn't much of a fun beach, small, rocky like so not many people came here, especially since just down the shore there was the actual full of sand beach that was usually crowded. That is why we dubbed this small spec of land our beach! We even have a flag up with one of Hidan's old kick-boxing shirts. Pain, Konan, Zetsu, Deidara were here already, we were still missing, Hidan, Ino, Tobi and Kisame which Kisame would be driving and with Hidan and Tobi in a car together, I'm sure they have crashed and burned somewhere. Hidan causes problems anywhere he goes; I don't understand how Ino takes it. She claims she can fix him, and that he's a real softy behind closed doors, but really I think Hidan probably smacked her in the head a good too many times!

"Hey guys!" Konan chimed as we stepped out onto the beach; I was already in my bathing suit and ready for the water. I wore a red bikini top and a pair of black short shorts, my hair was pulled back into a ponytail leaving my bangs.

"I can't believe you actually were able to bring Pain back here!" I looked over to see grey eyes glare at me as he stood there arms crossed and looking rather annoyed at being here. He was such a party pooper. Konan just smiled and a large beach ball impacted with my face.

"Dibs! You're on mine and Zetsu's team on volleyball! Sasori's gonna be on it as well, right?"

I glared at the smirking blond standing a few feet away. He was so... fit for the beach. Though, in a total wearing a bikini and slow-mo running across sort of way. His small framed six-pack made up for the gleaming blond hair though.

He wore a pair of blue and white swim shorts. Zetsu wore black and white. Sasori had a pair of blue and red shorts. Konan had a matching white bikini set, Pain had orange shorts with a plain black t-shirt. Itachi had dark blue where Sasuke had a dark red. Kakuzu had the most noticeable shorts, white with dollar bill prints plastered all over... He was strange.

I ran over to the edge of the waves, using the mud to begin making a castle. Making sand castle's was my favourite thing to do on the beach. I was pretty damned good at it as well.

"Your such a child."

"Kawako! Let's have a sand castle contest!" I had enough time to open my mouth before I was tackled into the water by an over excited Tobi. He had his mask on, what a loser. The last of the group came swarming over the hill in less than a quiet fashion. Hidan was yelling at Kisame who was red in the face and pointing at the masked man child hiding behind me.

"What did you do now Tobi?"

"Well, I sorta spilled my pop which caused Kisame to slam on the breaks which than caused Hidan to crack his head off the window and seat giving him a nose bleed. Then Kisame kicked Tobi and Hidan out of the car."

"Tobi is a good boy."

"Don't encourage him to do that moron!"

Zetsu snickered and so did 'Madara'. I glared at them both. Those two probably planned it.

"You fucking broke my nose you cocksucking shark face!"

"Shut your big mouth you worthless religious freak! Go sacrifice a bird or something you asshole!"

"How about I sacrifice you!"

"Fuck off it was Tobi's fault! The bastard almost wrecked my fucking seat!" I sighed. This truly is a day at the beach with the guys.

Tobi wore a pair of orange swimming shorts. Hidan had black shorts, like Kisame. Ino wore a white bathing suit with dark purple Hawaiian flower on the left side of the top and on the back of her bottoms.

"Alrighty than... So contest right! PAIN!" I looked over to see his glare, which meant he was listening. "You're the judge! We're having a sand castle contest!"

"Why am I stuck being the judge of your useless antics?"

"Because you're indifferent, cold and you hate everything, it's obvious you won't pick favourites." Some of the guys chuckled and piled their towels and other crap around a log.

"When it comes to everlasting art, I am the master, this contest is pointless."

"Hah! My speciality is sculpting! Though everlasting art is ugly, yeah, and true art never lasts, sandcastles always get washed away, making them beautiful. hmmm."

"How can y-"

"Alright the rules are 30 minutes to build whatever you can think of that's castle like."

Tobi, Deidara, Sasori, Konan, Kakuzu and I lined up along the beach, waiting for Zetsu to commence the challenge. I'm gonna win hands down! This will be the battle of a lifetime!

"Begin!"

We began, scooping up the mud like sand that the waves created and began moulding.

32 minutes later.

Pain stood looking at the piles of sand we called castles. I could hear Deidara snickering from the other side of the line-up. Pain opened his mouth to speak than...

BAM!

"Holy Shit!"

And the beach in front of us literally BLEW UP! We all jumped back into the water as sand poured down on us. My eyes were wide and we all turned out heads to the source... Deidara rolled on the ground laughing hysterically.

"Th-That was AMAZING! YEAH! Haha! Now the look on your faces was art! Hahaha!"

The rest of the group looked around at one another and we nodded. In a battle cry we all jumped up and ran toward the blond. Hearing the cry his face went pale and he was up and gone in a matter of seconds. I chased after him with deadly intent to kill him. Along with the other 4 dangerous people.

"I'm going to tear you to pieces!"

"Get back here you worthless artist!"

"You'll be a bad piece of origami when I'm finished with you Deidara!"

"You're dead meat blondie!"

"Ahhhhhh!"

We calmed down and sat around munching on the snacks we all assorted to bring. Sandwiches, cracker crap, and somebody brought fruit. Who the hell brings fruit on a hot beach day? Well at least the seagulls were fed.

"Zetsu... do you dance?" I questioned as I hopped up from my seat in the soft sand.

"Are you stupid?"

"Hmm... Deidara?"

He took a drink of his drink and shrugged. He jumped up with a smirk twisting at his lips.

"Depends what to."

I smiled and began to shake my hips and do a waving like motion with my arms. Just screwing around.

"Shawty's like a melody in my head, that I can´t keep out, got me singin´ like. Na na na na everyday
It´s like my iPod stuck on replay replay!"

The guys laughed and Ino and gasped as she jumped up to join me with her own curvy movements. She sung the repeated verse. Deidara just watched nodding. Hidan cat called as we joined each other laughing.

"Remember the first time we met. You was at the mall wit yo friend. I was scared to approach ya, but then you came closer. Hopin' you would give me a chance."

I couldn't believe my ears, I don't think anybody could. Deidara actually sang, and he was GOOD. Me and Ino froze as I stared at him with my mouth hung open.

"What? hmm. I'm more than a pretty face. Yeah."

I shook my head as I continued the song. Kisame, Sasori and Itachi were too intertwined in their conversation to notice the show going on. Ino had left me to seduce her already seduced boyfriend. Kakuzu, Zetsu were just watching me and blondie. I began dancing again, getting into the groove once again. Making my way to the man.

"Who would have ever knew, that we would ever be more than friends. We´re real worldwide breakin' all the rules. He like a song played again and again."

I waltzed around the blond, tracing my finger around his shoulder's. It was more like an over sexy music video... Possibly even a strip show. But, ever since I opened up to Deidara, we've been closer than ever. He was like a flirty doll! Maybe I was just too... flirty myself? I can't help it, I'm around the hotties of high school and I have puberty pumping hormones out of my ears! Deidara grabbed my hand spun me around as he continued our duet.

"That girl like somethin' off a poster. That girl is a dime they say. That girl is a gun to my holster. She´s runnin' through my mind all day-ay"

I ended up my back to his chest and I grind down him. It was that moment when I heard it and received a beach ball to the head... for the 2nd time.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" I looked over to see my attacker, Kisame...FUMING. "Deidara, what the hell do you think you're doing to my sister!?"

"Why do I always get the blame?!" Deidara shouted at my brother who now stood up. He pointed down at me, glaring. "Why don't you ask what she was doing to me, huh?!"

"Hey! Watch it blondie!"

I lightly shoved him before I went and sat beside Zetsu and Kakuzu, smirking devilishly.

"Enjoy the show boys?"

"Such acts are below me, Kawako. As nice as it was." I raised an eyebrow as Zetsu's 'sides' have popped out faster than usual in our conversations. Kakuzu huffed in annoyance as Kisame and Deidara continued to argue.

"Do you plan these things Kawako?"

"Mm?"

"Putting Deidara into situations like that. Knowing the fact that when it comes to you 'growing up' around us, your brother takes it out on us..."

I chuckled as I tapped my chin, "I don't mean too... But, knowing this fun fact..." I grabbed Kakuzu's arm and draped it over me. "Ooh, Kakuzu! That's not appropriate for the beach!"

He flinched back trying to pull his arm from my grasp. His eyes were wide as he looked over at the blue man who was still angry from Deidara.

"You little..." He threathed a whisper in my ear.

"Kakuzu! What the fuck is wrong with all of you?!"

I heard a sighing chuckle from Zetsu as he wandered away from me. I laughed as Kakuzu finally broke free and stood up. "Stupid bitch." He growled at me in a quiet tone.

I winked and he went to explain to my brother about the hands off policy... This 'policy' of his seems to have greatly increased since he found out I actually do notice boys, and even more when he found out about Kabuto. I shuddered at the thought of Kabuto ever running into Kisame.

"Kawako! We should go to the arcade tonight!"

I thought for a moment before smiling at the masked man. "Alright, I guess it has been a while eh?"

"Yay!"

He wrapped his arms around my neck pulling me in a vice grip childish hug.

"Why don't you yell at Tobi?! hmm."

"It's Tobi..."

"Oooh, but he is so wrong... I'm the one who should be kept away the most... eh Kawako." His deeper voice whispered in my ear as he held me in the hug. It caused a shiver down my spine. "I won't give up on you."

I swallowed and bit my lip. Memories of eaves dropping on him and Zetsu replayed in my mind. For a while Madara had been very spacious and barely paid any mind to me. I brushed it off as I jumped up, another juice box and we should begin our volleyball game that has been stalled for long enough. Today so far... was just amazing!
