Chapter Six

Veronica woke up in a cozy bed. When she opened her eyes, she saw blue. Not like when she was Kisame's room, but a light more her blue. Not that dark oceany blue he had. It was the color that most new mothers got their new baby boy. It pleased Veronica. Her bed was a queen sized bed, and extremely confortable. Ten feet forward from her bed was a door, she thought maybe it was the door to leave. The bed was placed against the far wall, and in the middle of it too. To her right were two doors side-by-side. Most likely a closet... She thought looking oevr at it. The doors were white and matched the ceiling. To her left was a brown wodden dresser. It was beautiful.

When she stood up off the bed, the main door opened. It was Deidara. "You're up, un." The blonde man said smiling. "You're robe fits you well, un." Deidara made a head motion to her. Veronica glanced down and noticed she was still in the Akatsuki robe. It did fit her well. You could tell she was a girl, that's for sure. She looked back up at Deidara. "Like your new room, un?"

"My room?" Veronica asked smiling and gaping.

"It's not much... I painted it beacuse it was just white, un." Deidara said smiling. Veronica ppounced the blonde. She through her arms around his neck and gave him a big bear hug. "It wasn't that.. that big a deal." Deidara said hiding off a blush.

"I love it." Veronica said smiling. "I actually have a place here! I thought I'd be staying with someone!" She was happy. No, she was ecstatic. "I've always wanted to be in the Akatsuki." Veronica walked back to her bed, and plopped down. Deidara looked at her in confusion.

"Why did you always want to be in the Akatsuki? Didn't you hear bad things about it?" The blonde man asked. Veronica knew of his past. He was more or less forced to joining the Akatsuki.

"Of course I've heard bas things about you guys, but you all look so happy when you're together. You're like a family." Veronica frowned. "At my home... I'm usually alone. My mother's usually at work all night and my brother's don't want to play with me because I'm a girl. The only person I have in my life is..." Veronica frowned. "Violet..." She whispered.

"Hey, cheer up. Like you said, 'We're family here.'." Deidara sat down beside the girl on her bed. Her put his arm around her and hugged her. "Now you're part of our family too." He grinned. Veronica smiled, holding back tears. She nodded, bitting her lip. "So how about you call me 'Deidara-niisan'?" HE offered. "Or maybe 'Aniki'? I can call you 'Veronica-neechan' or 'Imouto'. What do you say?" Veronica nodded, and hugged the blonde with both arms.

"Thankyou..." She whispered.

"Anytime, Imouto." Deidara pulled away from the hug and stood up. Veronica looked up at him. "Come on, you've been sleeping past dinner. How about we go make you some food." Veronica nodded and followed.

A/N: Nothing will go on between Veronica and Deidara. Just a brother/sister love. I wanna put Deidara with Sasori, but maybe not... Depends... What do you guys think? I know... Haven't updated in forever! Sorry! I'll try to update Violet soon.
Lot's Of Love,
