Yay! Here's chapter two! I personally I find this one funny because of Deidara's off and on jerkish attitude. XD He's a really easy character to figure out with his love of explosives, art, and his full of himself personality. He's my type of guy XD
Once again I would really appreciate a review from you guys. You just to see how I'm doing.
Thanks again


Chapter II

'Cause Life's Like This'

"Hi, un" the person stepped out from behind the next to Kakashi. At first it was hard to make out his form because of the shadows but when he stepped into the thin ray of sunlight that came between the trees it was easier to see.

At first glance you might mistake him as a girl but it was obvious he was indeed a boy because of his boyish tenor voice. His long blond hair came over his left eye and the back was pulled int a ponytail. This boy's eyes were incredible! They were a deep crystal blue, almost like the ocean. He wore a circle of dark black eyeliner which made his eyes even more appealing and enchanting. The boy apparently didn't care much about his appearance because dressed comfortably. Just a casual black tank top and pants, but he didn't wear any shoes which intrigued her.

"Tinnara this is Deidara. He will be part of our squad while Lord Hokage looks for a less crowded one." Kakashi explained.

Deidara walked up to Tinnara, upon which she discovered he was a little taller that she was, about one or two inches.

Deidara just smirked and held out his hand and said, "Hi Tinnara it's nice to meet you, un" Tinnara took his hand and shook it.

"Nice to meet you too Deidara." She smiled. Deidara's smirk just grew.

"You are very interesting. Where you in such a hurry this morning that you forgot to brush out your bed head?" He commented with a straight face. Tinnara immediately let go of his hand and took out the compact from her skirt pocket. He was right, her hair was sticking out all over the place. A blush spread across her face and she let her head drop so her blush wasn't visible.

Then she felt someone lifting her face up. When she realized it was Deidara she was even more reluctant to hide her face.

"You shouldn't be so embarrassed. We all have our blond moments, and take it from a true blond, un." his smirk quickly faded into a friendly smile and his eyes softened. Tinnara could see he was being sincere. She nodded.

"Thanks." She returned his smile. 'When you get past his cocky expression his smile actually seems kinda cute.' she thought, the blush growing darker.

Deidara smirked at how he made her body react. "Oh and a... nice bra, un."

"Huh?" she asked. 'What is he talking about?' Becoming curious Tinnara trailed her eyes down to her shirt. "Oh my god." she said covering herself. Apparently her shirt had slipped down just enough for just about god and everyone else to see her black bra above her hot pink tank top.

Narrowing her eyes at him Deidara just laughed, "Your a funny one, un."

"Eh hm. I don't mean to interrupt your conversation but don't we have some training to get to, Tinnara?" Kakashi said coming between Tinnara and Deidara. Tinnara's face turned into a scowl and she began to glare at Deidara but he just smiled. "Tinnara?" Kakashi raised and eye brow.

Tinnara shook her head and snapped out of it. "Oh, sorry Kakashi sensei. I'm ready to train." Kakashi stared Tinnara off by doing simple chakra exercises. Once she easily got a hold of those they moved on to more experienced Jonin type exercises, and that's where the trouble stared. Everytime Tinnara tried one of her medical tequnices her chakra started acting up. It was almost like it was short currceting or something. And this entire time Deidara sat there watching and observing. He never missed anything and he took mental notes down to the smallest detail. After all that was his mission. Strictly recon and retrieve, not to flirt and get emotionally involved.

"Kakashi sensei I can't do this. I don't know what's going on but I'm pretty sure it's only temporary." Tinnara smiled at the last part of her statement. Kakashi placed his hand on her head.

"Way to be positive. And I'm sure you right, whatever is happening is most likely only temporary, but if you don't mind I'm going to tell Lord Hokage. Maybe she will be able to give us an answer." Tinnara wrapped her arms around the older man and hugged him.

"Thank you so much." Kakashi was a little shocked at first but than softened and hugged back. Tinnara and Kakashi were like siblings, except they weren't related. And they could always trust each other with anything.


Hands in her pockets, shoulders layed back and staring at the sky Tinnara started on her way back home. She sighed. There were dark circles around her eyes and a dazed look on her face. For the past week she hadn't gotten any sleep or when she occasionally collapsed from exhaustion those red eyes would appear. It was like torture in her sleep.

The streets of Konoha were packed with people. Well it was a nice day what did she expect.

"Hm?" one of her eyes twitched open.

Someone was following her.

The sound waves that came from the incoming steps made it sound like the person was about five meters away and closing.

"Hey Tinnara wait up a sec, un." she sighed in frustration and turned around.

"What do you want Deidara?" there was a slight twist of anger in her voice. Deidara smirked, 'This girl is a riot.'

"I was hoping you would be able to show me around, I mean since I just moved here, un." Tinnara was amazed.

"Umm, well, umm..." she twiddled with her fingers until she felt a familiar arm drape over her shoulder.

"Hey Tinnara! What's up?" there was a blush that appeared across her face as she turned to face Kiba. He had his world famous smile on and his hood was down for once. Just then an idea popped into her head.

"Hi Kiba-kun!" she said happily as she wrapped her arms around his chest.

"What are you doing? Are you okay?" Kiba asked with a confused and concerned look.

"I'm perfectly fine Kiba, dear." she smile, "Just play along." whispering the last part so only he could hear, then winked.

He smiled to show he got it and began to cuddle her. "That's good to hear Tinnara-kun."

"Oh excuse me but are you two dating, un?" Deidara asked suspiciously.

"Yes we are." Tinnara stated her arms now around Kiba's arm. "You see that's why I can't show you around today, because Kiba and I are going somewhere today. I hope you can understand and forgive me."

"Oh yes I understand completely, un." Deidara smirked.

Tinnara could tell he wasn't buying it so she took it a little further. Gently pressing her lips against Kiba's she gave him a soft kiss. Kiba was stunned at first but then went with it. After fifteen seconds they separated and Tinnara returned her gaze to Deidara.

"Well I guess I'll let you be and get going. See you tomorrow at combat practice, un." He turned away and held up his hand.

Tinnara smirked, 'Yes he bought it!' she thought. She turned back to thank Kiba but he was in a daze and a smile had appeared across his face. "Hey Kiba are you okay?" Tinnara asked. Kiba nodded dreamy eyed. She sighed and rolled her eyes, "Boys."
