AN: Just six more days until I'm out of hell. Then I can sleep and work on my story(ies).

I DO NOT OWN NARUTO, ONLY MY CHARACTERS AND STORYLINE.


Max

It's been a week and a half since we came. The Akatsuki and four of us were eating breakfast, no particular order in our seating. I was sitting at the end of the table, Sasuke was to my left and Ana to my right, those two sitting across from each other. Pein was sitting all the way to the other end of the table, with Konan next to him. We were all eating together, excluding one missing member.

"WHERE THE HELL IS IT!?"

There he is.

"Where is IT?!" Deidara yelled as he entered the dining room. He scanned the room before his eyes landed on me. He walked over and pulled my chair out, placing both hands on the chair he gave me a hard stare. It took every ounce of power to try and not blush.

"Where is it?" Deidara repeated himself.

All you have to do is say that you don't know. "You wanna make out?" FUCK!

"What? You're fucking weird," Deidara said in a more quiet voice. He pushed my chair back and stepped on the table. He slowly walked on the table giving glares to everyone.

Pein sighed and placed his mug down on the table, he grabbed a napkin and wiped the extra chocolate on his upper lip. "Deidara why are you yelling? And get off the table."

"Where is it?" Deidara asked again. He surprisingly hasn't stepped on anyone's food despite not looking where he's going.

"You're being nonspecific right now," Sasori said. He was looking up from reading this week's newspaper, front cover was Robert Rodriguez in the hospital.

"You seem in a good mood," I pointed out to Sasori as I adjusted my chair. "You're talking in the morning." Sasori nodded. Sasori doesn't talk to anyone in the morning, he's really quiet and uncaring until around ten-eleven in the morning. That's the time he starts talking, all day he's uncaring.

"I bet you took it," Deidara muttered, glaring at Tobi he jumped down from the table.

"I didn't take it…" Tobi paused, "what didn't I take?"

Deidara let out a stressed out breath, he ran his hand through his hair. "One of you took my other pouch!" He yelled as he opened his cloak to show us the missing pouch.

"That's it?" Ana asked, "why do you even need it? Just sit down and eat breakfast, it's already cold."

"Ana's right," Pein agreed. "You're not going to need them, you have another pouch."

"You can look for it after breakfast," Konan suggest. She grabbed Deidara's plate and shoved it in his grasp.

Deidara let out a groan. "Fine, but I'm just warning you guys that I'm getting a bad vibe. Almost as if something drastic is going to happen."

"Is it because I suggested we make out?" I ask feeling embarrassed. "Because that just came out."

Ana let out a forced laugh. "Hidan you should try that!" She stopped her laughter and looked back and forth at us.

"We. Don't. Like. Each Other!" I snapped at Ana. This feels like I've done this before.

She shrugged and continued eating. After breakfast Linda and I helped clean up and wash the dishes. I walked up stairs to the room I shared with Sasuke to grab my phone. I open the second right door and walked in. My phone was sitting on the nightstand charging.

"Let's have a look," I whispered to myself as I checked any notifications.

"What's with the face?" Hidan asked me as I walked back down stairs. I took a seat next Sasuke and looked up at Hidan.

"Just a weird thing, there was an invitation to a house party. Seems like a big deal if nearly everyone in town got an invitation." I looked down at my phone.

I got an email that there was this big house party and nearly everyone was going. The dude who sent it has a friend in California who likes Akatsuki Corporation, making us instant guest. Seems like the dude throwing the party was leaving so he wanted to throw one last party. But the only problem is taking the Akatsuki to a house party. It's going to be like the one's in the movies, only thing is that I'm taking anime characters instead of beer. Speaking of Akatsuki, I hope everyones drunk enough to not be Naruto fans. And if they are then I hope they're really drunk to not remember anything.

"Zetsu! I bet you ate it!" Deidara yelled pointing his finger at Zetsu, trying to accuse him.

"Why would I eat your clay? That wouldn't be very nice of me." Zetsu defended himself. "And why would we eat some dirty clay that's going to explode?"

"I've got my eyes on you, and all of you," Deidara said as did the "I see you" motion. He slowly backed away into the hallway.

"Drake," I snorted. Get it? I've got my eyes on you...no...ok.

"So are we going to this party or what?" Hidan asked referring to what we were talking about.

"Ooh party," Kisame smiled at us. "What are we celebrating?"

"Well-"

"Party? What party?" Pein asked as he walked towards us. He was holding his third cup of hot chocolate. "Who said anything of a party, damn it Max I thought I told you no more parties!"

"Okay damn!" I snapped at them, "I just got an invitation for a party that we got invited to. Some dude has a friend that likes the way we do business and told us to come. But it's just for partying-no business."

The Akatsuki thought to themselves.

"YES!" "NO!"

I looked between the ones who wanted to go and those who do not. Kisame, Hidan, Linda, Tobi wanted to go. Pein, Sasuke, Sasori, Deidara, Ana, and Kakuzu don't want to go. Zetsu didn't say anything because he has to go with what Pein says, same goes for Konan. As for Itachi and I, we didn't know.

"It's six against four, so no party."

"Wait," Deidara cut in, "This is for not going to the party?" He looked around and took two long strides to the other group.

"You're dead to us," Sasori muttered as he glared at Deidara.

"What do you two think?" Pein asked Itachi and I. We looked at each other and shrugged.

"I think I do want to go and party, because I like partying. But the no side has members that will kill me when the yes side gets drunk. But I do like partying."

I rubbed my chin as I thought long and hard…for like two seconds. "I'm going yes."

"Okay, it's five- five."

Itachi looked around as everyone stared at him, waiting to what the Uchiha had to say. His eyes found Kisame's and they stared at each other for about minute before Itachi spoke.

"Yes."

Pein's eye twitched. "That was enough to get you to agree?!"

Kisame looked over at Pein surprised. "How did you know what I said to him?"

"I have chakra rods, I got your little chakra messages."

"What did you tell Itachi, Kisame?" Linda asked.

Kisame leaned down to whisper to her, I leaned to my right to also hear what Kisame said to Itachi to make him go.

"He'd get candy."

"That makes a lot of sense," I said.

Pein let out a sigh, "fine, we're going to this party. We just arrive late."

With that said Pein walked out the room with his hot chocolate. I should probably cut some of his hot chocolate consuming, he drinks more than any of us. And I hate it more because he can't gain weight...asshole.


A little before ten, I walked up to my room to start getting ready. Sasuke and Linda were both in the room doing crossword puzzles. I ignored the two and walked over to the bathroom to fix my hair up. I pulled my curling wand out and plugged it into an outlet to let it heat up. As I let it heat up I applied heat protection.

"What are you doing?" I heard Linda's voice from the room.

"I'm fixing my hair," I answered back.

"Okay."

I grabbed the wand and began fixing-and making-my waves that my hair already had. After twenty minutes of making my hair nice, and having a loud conversation with Sasuke and Linda, I walked back into the room to change. My only problem was that it's pretty cold outside, but the party is going to be hot because of everyone dancing and hanging.

I looked through the closet until I pulled out some black skinny jeans that were pre ripped at the knees, and a nice white t shirt. I walked back into the bathroom to change.

"Well aren't you looking all dressed up," Linda complimented me as I walked out again.

"Nice outfit," Sasuke said without looking up from his cards. He and Linda had switched to playing cards.

"You aren't even looking at me!"

"Do I have to?"

"Yes!"

Sasuke looked at me up and down before looking back down at his cards.

"Like I said, nice outfit." Sasuke said before placing a card down. "Hit me."

Linda gave him a blank look before smacking his forehead. I bit down on my lip.

"What was that?!" Sasuke snapped as he got mad.

"You said to hit you!" Linda yelled back in confusion.

"I-" Sasuke sighed and rubbed between his eyes. "I'm done playing with you," Sasuke muttered as he got off the bed.

"Good, now you can get ready," I said. I grabbed the blue bag from the closet and tossed it to Sasuke. I reached under the bed and took out a big box. "C'mon Linda, let's go dress the others while Sasuke gets ready," I called.

Linda opened and closed the door for me as I walked out and into the hallway screaming for the Akatsuki. All ten of them slowly walked out of their rooms, and others from downstairs. Ana walked out to see what the deal was. I dropped the box on the floor and kicked it open.

"Boom!" I yelled, I began tossing clothes at the Akatsuki at random. "Go change out of your cloaks and into these, you have fifteen minutes."

After shooing the Akatsuki away Ana walked over to me with a questionable face.

"Explain," she demanded.

"There is no explanation, I just don't want the Akatsuki in their cloaks. We are going to a party aren't' we?"

Ana opened her mouth but closed it. Sasuke walked of the room.

"Nice outfit," I said as I kept my eyes on Ana.

"You didn't even look."

"Do you want me to?"

"Tch."

I looked over at Sasuke, I looked up and down eying him. "Nice outfit," I smirked.

He walked away rolling his eyes. "You're welcome," I said to Sasuke and Ana.

I walked down stairs to the front door to put my gray boots on. I looked up to see the Akatsuki walk down. "Heyyy…" I said with a smile. "God damn, lookin fine," I muttered through my teeth.

"We heard you," Kakuzu said with his glare.

"And I'm not taking it back," I laughed. "Hey, Hidan. Where is the key to the cabinet?"

"Under the couch cushion," Hidan said. He walked over to the smallest couch and lifted the cushion grabbing the key. He tossed the key to me and I went to a cabinet next to the fridge.

I pulled out a bottle of tequila and a shot. I poured for one and took the shot, letting the liquid burn down my throat.

"Is that safe?" Ana asked me.

"It's the only thing I'll be drinking tonight."

"Why is that?" Kisame asked me as we started walking out the front door.

"Trust me, I want to drink as much as you guys. But I'm the only one who knows how to drive, I'm not an idiot...most of the time. Driving after drinking is never safe, especially how I get," I said. I slipped in the driver's seat and pushed the key in the ignition.

Hidan took the passenger seat while the rest went to the back. I started the car up and began driving. Don't worry. I've been practicing.


After driving for about twenty minutes, I slowed the Volkswagen to a stop in front of a big house. I managed to get a parking space that was close, and even then we were still far from the house. I turned the car off and got out letting the cool air touch my face. It was now that I realized that I forgot to grab a jacket.

I walked up the sidewalk with the Akatsuki and other three following. I opened the front door, it looked exactly how I imagined it. There were people dancing, strangers making out, alcohol and laughter. Now this is my kind of night. We all walked with no one staring at us. The house was enormous, two giant stair cases going up and opposite directions. The floor seemed new, but that wasn't to important. What was important was some of these babes, god damn.

I turned around to the Akatsuki and said, "See ya, we'll check up on each other in an hour. We'll meet up at the front door in three hours!" I screamed over the music. The others nodded.

Giving them a thumbs up, I walked away. First thing firsts, I need to locate non-alcoholic beverages. Trying to push through groups of people I found the kitchen. I opened the fridge up and saw nothing but beer. I sighed and grabbed a plastic cup. Pushing the water button, I silently prayed that it wasn't vodka. After sniffing it, I could tell it was plain water.

Bodies were rubbing and pushing each other. Music blared and people laughed. I was walking around when I saw Hidan was already flirting with a big group of girls. I couldn't help but smile, he's already getting it on. Good for Hidan, bad for the girls, they just might get to know Lord Jashin by the end of the night. I continued walking. I really need to make friends, my social life is shit.

I walked along minding my own business, sipping my water. I had stopped dancing after about twenty-thirty minutes. I wandered off and found Tobi dancing around to, Don't stop the party by Pitbull. I ignored him and continued wandering around until I found the back porch. It was filled with people.

I raised the cup to lips only to see that I was out of water.

"Sup dude!"

I turned around to see an stereotypical frat boy. He was wearing shorts and old tennis shoes, his shirt was rainbow color dye and he was wearing a NASCAR hat that cover his long dirty-blond hair.

"Hey," I awkwardly greeted.

"Enjoying the party? Names Todd by the way," He stretched his hand out to me.

Oh god. "Max," I answered while shaking his hand. "Yeah great party."

"Seems you're out of fuel," Todd said noticing my empty cup. He reached in a nearby cooler and handed me a canned beer. "Here you go, bro."

I stared at the cold can in my hands. It's okay to drink one, I've been drinking water this entire time. I opened the beer up and took a sip letting the flavor sink in before I could start drinking it.

"So what's up dude, having the time of your life or what!" Todd exclaimed with a lot of excitement. His voice sounded as if he'd just smoked weed, and his face.

I couldn't help but laugh.

"What's so funny?" Todd asked.

"Drunk people make me laugh," I said through my laughter.

"I'm not drunk," He said in dential, but started smiling. "I'm the soberest one here, no drinks no drugs."

I raised an eyebrow at the beer in his hands. "Right."

"I'm serious bro, totally sober," Todd said again, only smiling harder. "...okay maybe you're the sober one here."

I nodded and accepted the beer he handed me.

"So where you from?"

"Just on the outskirts of town," I answered truthfully.

He nodded and said, "nice. I live here."

"Wait, you're the one throwing the party?" I said in surprise. I tipped the can a little farther to get more from the drink.

"Yeah, man," Todd grabbed another two beers. "I'm moving with my friend."

I slightly frowned. "If you don't mind me asking, but why are you moving?"

"We're actually cat therapist, believe it or not."

I finished the previous beer before opening the one I just got. "Huh? I don't believe you."

"Believe it my dude. I can feel the cat's energy, and that's how we speak. I guess it's more telepathic." Todd explained. I barely tipped the can back as it was just opened.

"So you're going to follow your dreams to be a cat therapist?" I asked him.

Todd nodded his head, "That's right bro, it's what I've been asked to do by the heavens. Tequila?"

I stopped mid drink and stared at Todd. He reach from the cooler and pulled out a Tradicional. I subconsciously gulped feeling the hair on my body stand. It all felt like time was flying.

"Here you go my dude," Todd laughed as he set four shots of tequila in front of the both of us. He linked his arm with mine as we took a shot. "Whoo!"

I let out a laugh. "Todd my man, you know what tequila is," I complimented him. He bowed and we took another shot.

I grasped my hands around the now warm beer can. Todd continued talking and I just nodded and laughed-and that's where I remember.

Seriously. That's as far as my memory goes. But I'm pretty sure I didn't drive the Akatsuki back because I think we stay at the house, furniture were arranged differently so that must be what happened.
