After she heard that Deidara Left Ino ran to her room and slammed the door. She put her face to the pillow and cried until she had no tears left. ' How could he leave me?', was the thought that entered her confused mind. She could hear her father talking to someone outside the door. They were talking about something called "Akatsuki". At the time Ino didn't know what that was, it sounded like some sort of cake.
………………………………………. Chapter 2………………………………...
Ino shook her head, trying to push the painful memories away. She remembered every detail of that day and considered it the worst day of her life. She sighed and placed her head on the pillow, trying to get some sleep from the long journey, but the laughter of people interrupted her. The noise was coming from out side her window. Frustrated Ino got up and opened the window, ready to scream her head off at the people making the noise. When she opened the window a ball hit her on the face.
"WHAT THE--!", was all she said. ( I'm surprised she didn't curse them out.)
"Whoops! Sorry Ino. Didn't see you there, yeah.", said a voice strangely familiar to Ino.
Ino looked at the speaker and nearly fainted. Standing underneath her was Deidara in black swimming trunks. Ino rubbed her eyes, just to make sure she wasn't seeing things. She looked again and saw Deidara jump into the pool. Ino quickly put on her bathing suit and went down to the pool. When she got there she saw her mother placing food on a few tables with a banner reading: "Happy 16th Birthday Ino!!" hanging over them.
Her mother looked up and a smile grew on her face. "Hey Ino!!" She turned around and saw her pink-haired friend run over to her. "You've finally came out that room! I was beginning to get a little worried." " Well what did you expect me to do? Sulk around on my B-day? You may be smart but sometimes your so dense forehead." Sakura smiled, her friend was back to normal.
Sakura grabbed Ino's hand and pulled her towards the pool. "Guess who's here?" , she said pointing at Deidara. He looked up at Ino. "Hey Ino-chan." "Hi Deidara nii-san."
Deidara was about to walk out the door when Ino saw him. "Where are you going?", she asked yawning. The party had worn her out and it was 11:00pm. Deidara stopped and turned around. His swimming trunks were replaced by a black robe with red clouds on it. " I cant stay here . I'll put all of you at risk, yeah." "Oh.", Ino's voice sounded disappointed, she wanted him to stay a bit longer after all they hadn't seen each other in 10 years.
"Will you ever come back?"
"I don't know, maybe,yeah."
Ino nodded, but didn't look up. She was afraid that if she looked she would start to cry. Deidara walked over to her and gave her one last hug. "I promise I will visit again, yeah."
He let go and walked out the door leaving Ino there in the dark.
