Chapter Four: Finishing Touches

I met up with Deidara and the quiet Itachi picking up the clothes from the floor. They were nearly finished so all I really needed to do was fold a black tang top and put it in the shelf. I crossed my arms and smiled at the two of them.

Itachi nodded back and headed down the hall while Deidara slug an arm over my shoulders as if we were old friends instead of only having known each other for like a day. I blushed red but smiled anyway looking at him in the corner of my eye. We walked back silently at first.

"We have to all paint our nails before tomorrow hmm," he muttered as if talking to himself.

"What?" I asked thinking I heard wrong.

"It's part of the uniform that we paint our nails black, dark purple, or green un," Deidara explained and I raised a brow.

"That's odd," I muttered smiling.

"Yea I know humph," Deidara chuckled. It was a soft low sound that made my insides flip a few times. He let go of me as we entered the dormitory and he literally flew to the bathroom. I have never and may ever see again a guy running to find nail polish.

I went over and sat down next to Sasori on his bed reading off some stuff on his myspace. His fingers moved quickly over the keys and he didn't look once at what he was writing. He smelled odd too, kind of like freshly cut wood. My eyes drifted from his hands up his arm, half way up his forearm was a tiny groove it seemed to go all the way around his arm too. I was about to ask him about it when Deidara re-entered the main room.

"Okay Jenny hmm what color do you want?" Deidara asked shacking the three nail polish bottles.

"Err… black?" I shrugged watching his lips curl into a wide smile. The blond threw Sasori the bottle of greenish blue, which the red head caught without even looking up.

"Alright un you do mine and I'll do yours. Mm, k?" Deidara asked sitting down on the middle bed that I guessed was his. I nodded and hopped over next to him. He passed me the bottle of black and I opened it, skillfully whipping the extra paint off the rim of the bottle.

"Thumb," I ordered and he put his hand flat onto his knee his thumbnail facing up. I leaned in and painted over the nail taking in his clean sent of earth and vegetation. What's with me smelling guys? Well anyway I finished with his hand and went to the other as he wagged the left one to dry the polish faster.

It was two something in the afternoon when I started feeling hunger wash over me. Deidara was watching TV and Sasori had been on the computer all morning like a zombie. I looked down at my onyx nails then suddenly remembered my mother. She would be at work but I needed to call her so badly! I got up off the sofa and sprinted to my bedside getting my bag from under it. I pulled out my cell phone and snapped it open. My face fell seeing that I had zero bars. I snapped it close again and turned seeing that the two boys had been staring at me.

"Our cells don't work on campus," Sasori answered my unsaid question. "They only work if you pass the sign in front of the school."

"Of course," I sighed sitting on my bed "I'm really hungry."

"It's two forty five Deidara we should go get something to eat," Sasori said shutting his laptop.

"Mm huh," he grunted turning the TV off and getting up. "Lets go then hmm."

I cheered my hands up in the air as we headed for the door. Sasori locked the door and we headed for the exit. Down the glossy marble steps and headed for the middle of town/campus thing. We passed other temples that were similar to ours but was made in a different kind of stone.

"So what's the point of the temples?" I asked looking up at the cloudless sky.

"I don't know really," said Sasori who seemed to have all the answers "I know that when the school first started it was only the Towers."

"The temples came after ward when the Academy became more popular to other counties the temples were added so more students could be taken in yeah," Deidara explained as if he were reading it from the text. Sasori gave him a sideways glance but said nothing. "Were do you want to eat Jenny-chan? Un?"

"Um," I looked at the three small restaurants we stood in front of. One a café, the next a ramen place, and the last was a sushi house. "How about ramen? I've never tried it."

"But Fire Tower stu-," Sasori stated but was interrupted by Deidara.

"Sure I haven't had any for ages hmm," Deidara said showing me in. I heard Sasori sigh very loudly behind us. As we walked in heads popped up some eyes in curiosity others in a glare. We found a free booth and got in, me sitting next to Sasori and Deidara across from us.

"What are Akatsuki doing here?" I heard someone growl.

"Shut up Naruto!" yelled a girl and I looked up at the people sitting at the bar area. There was a blonde boy, the pink haired chick from the bus, and the black haired boy too. There were other people whispering too but they were the loudest.

"How rude," I grumbled looking at the menu crossly. Deidara smirked while Sasori said something along the lines of 'I told you so.'

"Oh my god Jenny!" I heard the familiar voice of my best friend squeal. I looked up from my menu and saw her run over from the booth she had been sitting at with a boy.

"Hi Loren," I said with a smile as she booted Deidara over so she could sit. "What Tower are you in again?"

"Wind," she chirped "I see you're already in uniform."

"Yeah isn't it the hottest?" I asked talking as if the boys weren't sitting with us.

"Hell yes," Loren said. She is a year younger then me but a half an inch taller. She had a much more womanly form then me also but it didn't stop us from practically sharing a brain. "And who are these guys?" she asked giving me a Cheshire cat smile.

"Deidara and Sasori they're my roommates," I replied with a just as devilish grin.

"Ooh I see," she cooed. The two boys had been very quiet but seemed to enjoy our childish conversation. Well at lest Sasori seemed amused, Deidara on the other hand had a deep blush across his cheekbones.

"So whom were you sitting with?" I asked looking up at the guy still sitting at the booth Loren. I could only make out the guy's blood red hair and the creamy skin on the back of his neck and ear. This school seemed to be full of nice looking guys.

"Oh that's Gaara he's my roommate," she said with a sly grin "He's quiet but I'm sure I can get him to smile." Not wanting to be rude to her new friend Loren left us and went back to her roommate.
