19. The Deceitful Plot
Hidan was about to open the fridge when two strong arms wrapped around his waist, holding him back. He turned to shoot a curious look up at his partner.
"What the fuck do you want? I'm fuckin' starved!" He pouted as Kakuzu nuzzled his face into the other's shoulder.
"Mmn, I want a permanent face as lovely as yours." He purred- Hidan tensed a bit.
"Was that supposed to be some sort of pick-up line?"
"Did it sound like one?"
"Ummm..."
"Then yes, it was." He breathed against the smaller male's ear, dragging him over to the bed.
"I wonder... have you seen what's under my mask?" Kakuzu spoke into Hidan's clavicle (collarbone).
"Of course not, shit-head! You fuckin' choked me each time I tried to find out. Now I realize I honestly don't give a fuck so long as I get one." He replied with a shaky laugh.
"Do you know how old I am?"
"No, do you know how old I am?"
"Just guess..."
"Forty-something? Now guess mine!" Hidan smirked.
"Twenty- And you are way off."
Hidan was about to retort but was confused when his partner pulled back. He looked up at him, curious, innocent.
"You claim to know me yet know nothing about me."
'But you never let me learn things about you!' Hidan wanted to protest but Kakuzu's odd expression and aura kept him silent.
"You are worthless and nothing but a decent fuck." Hidan's eyes widened in surprise and Kakuzu continued, "Your face is being wasted- You are the reason I was sold." Hidan's cocked a brow, utterly confused. "I want your face- then he'll be all mine, but first..."
–
A scream echoed throughout the empty floor of the hotel.
–
"That sounded like Hidan! Let me go, Atari!" Kakuzu snarled at his former companion from the whorehouse.
"Why should I? Kuro's just doing as I instructed. You would only get in the way, love." Atari sighed, pulling his face close to Kakuzu's.
"What are you plotting?" Kakuzu snapped.
"Well, I want you, to tell the truth." Atari started.
"Why leave Kuro alone with Hidan though?"
"Well... you love Hidan and therefore... he is an obstacle to be removed- Kuro is just the one to remove him." Atari explains, all the while rubbing against Kakuzu.
"Hidan is immortal." Kakuzu simply says.
"There is no thing as complete immortality- but who said I wanted him dead? Kuro wants revenge, Kakuzu-danna. He blames Hidan for the fate you had given him. If you hadn't used the poor kid for his false face, he might never have been lured into a false sense of security. Of course, I suspect he plans on using Hidan's face against you... that's why I'm offering you protection. Come with me back to the brothel and make all the money you want while having someone like me at your side for anything." Atari whispered seductively in Kakuzu's ear. Kakuzu shivered involuntarily.
–
A scream resounded through the hall of the hotel.
–
"Shit- We're coming, Hidan!" Suki rushed ahead of Deidara and Sasori to the door of Hidan and Kakuzu's suite.
He froze at the sight. Deidara and Sasori entered the room, passing Suki then noticing a figure looking over the bed. The figure took no notice of them, his hand inches from Hidan's face; a face frozen in terror on a stripped (naked) body. Deidara shouted, throwing a clay spider near the figure. The figure started and cursed, rushing past the three at the door just before the clay exploded.
–
A scream followed an explosion in the hall of the hotel.
–
Kakuzu sighed, looking sadly down at Atari's unconscious form.
"Sorry, you forced my hand..." He sighed again then perked up at the sound of his love's voice from the doorway.
"Oi, Kakuzu, you shit- so weak letting that heathen drag you out." Hidan laughed, moving closer to Kakuzu whom backed away.
"Don't look at-"
"Your stitches? I don't give a fuck."
Kakuzu started and glared suspiciously at Hidan, searching for any of the slightest flaws. He saw none and smiled, wrapping his arms around the Jashinist. Said Jashinist hugged back and buried his face in Kakuzu's shoulder.
"How much do you love me?" Hidan mumbled.
"Very much." Kakuzu replied.
He didn't notice him tense in anger.
"Then fuck me now." He mumbled again.
–
All was silent save the sound of footsteps on a floor of the hotel.
–
Deidara bursts into the room first to find Kakuzu's lips locked with Hidan's. The real Hidan stormed past, half naked as the imposter now was. Sasori was taken aback by the likeness of the two. Every detail was the same- down to every scar littering their upper bodies. Kakuzu saw past Hidan's head noticing... "HIDAN!?" He broke away from the one he had been about to fuck senseless. Said male noticed the flaw in his plan and soon improvised, jumping up and spinning himself and Hidan abruptly to hide which was the imposter. He made sure to mute Hidan before violating him and almost stealing his face. Would have succeeded had it not been for that wood-loving bomber.
"Which one is Hidan and which is Kuro?" Suki cried from over by Atari's unconscious form.
The imposter made sure to mirror Hidan's expressions exactly. Kakuzu stood, scrambling over to his other Akatsuki cohorts.
"Kuro's jutsu has improved, I see." Kakuzu praised in hopes it would spark a reaction, yet both of them scowled at him in accusation.
"I have an idea, hmm..." Deidara turned to whisper something in his former master's ear.
Kakuzu's eyes widened and he nodded enthusiastically before approaching the first Hidan. They both kept a curious face even when Kakuzu reached for his pants. He looked down a startled Hidan's pants then frowned before moving to the other. This one flinched away, scowling and even growling. He shot a nervous glance behind at Deidara whom urged the miser further. His hand shot out, grabbing at this Hidan's pants as well and looking down only to pull back abruptly.
"You're right, Deidara! Kuro's still sloppy. However... a final test..." He gave no explanation, only slamming the man in front of him against the wall (the 2nd Hidan he checked).
Hidan gave out a gasp and blushed fiercely as Kakuzu continued to choke him. Sure enough, a familiar moan of pleasure reached the miser's ears and he released Hidan before turning to Kuro who was starting to back away.
"Kuro- don't even think you're going to escape. Do you realize the bounty over your head?" Kakuzu glowered, stepping towards the imposter threateningly.
"H-how did y-you know I wasn't-"
"He has my name on him." Kakuzu replied, pulling his former partner off the ground, against the wall.
"What?" Kuro and Hidan exclaimed in unison.
"Before Deidara and I left Sara's little business and Hidan- Deidara carved my name just below his navel. The scar's still there having been traced so often. Of course- Hidan also gets hard when choked, so that was my confirmation in case you copied the scar... and for my own enjoyment, I suppose." (Kuro didn't copy the scar & Kuzu noticed on his 1st check)
He brought back a hardened fist and it slammed against Kuro's gut causing him to double over, coughing up blood. He was about to continue but that damned imposter had looked up at him with Hidan's pleading face. The imposter smirked then darted for the nearest window, jumping out and landing like the cat he was. Kakuzu was about to follow but Atari held him back.
"He is no longer a threat, Kakuzu."
"He has a bounty over his head that will end my mission though." Kakuzu was pouting.
He calmed down long enough to notice Hidan ogling at him and that he wasn't wearing his mask. His eyes widened and Hidan held something out to him. Kakuzu took his headgear and slipped it on without a word spoken by anyone.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO YOUR FACE?" Hidan shouted, clearly fuming. Deidara's palm introduced itself to his face.
"Hidan-"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP BLONDIE! How could you fucking keep this from me?!" He growled, pointing at Kakuzu's face. Atari rolled his eyes and Suki hid behind him- all former bitterness against his danna forgotten.
"I'm sorry that I want to live more than I want my looks." Kakuzu choked bitterly- his anger slowly bubbling. Hidan was too busy shouting at the bomber to hear.
"I mean, just FUCKING LOOK AT HIM!"
"HIDAN!" Deidara pleaded but he continued.
"I mean- He's fucking GORGEOUS! You gotta tell me if he's got any elsewhere!"
Everyone only stared at the overenthusiastic Jashinist. Stare. Stare. Stare.
"...You... like... them?" Kakuzu felt faint- being a ninja, however, prevented him from swooning. He kept a straight face. One that was redder than Sasori's hair.
"Of course I fucking do! I dunno why- but now I wanna take you to the bedroom and-" Hidan didn't get to finish and was dragged out of the room by the stitched man who told Atari and Suki, "You two get Sasori and Deidara a room- no one disturbs us til tomorrow afternoon."
"Looks like you'll be able to fix that hard-on after-all, Deidara-senpai."
"........Shut up, Suki..."
20. Spouse
Kakuzu shut the door behind himself and Hidan and led the latter to the bed. Hidan remained standing and wore a frown.
"What's wrong, Hidan?"
"I'm still hungry..." Hidan explained, looking back to the fridge.
"What did he do when he threw me out?" Kakuzu stood, wrapping his arms around the smaller.
"He told me I knew nothing about you- I was worthless... and then he fucking tried to rape me... He showed me what was under his- your- mask... That's when he got me... I couldn't help but look."
"Do you want to go out and find something to eat?" Kakuzu asked, his arms tightening at the word rape.
"Meh- I'd rather just lay down while you get something." Hidan scoffed.
"Alright," Kakuzu laughed then leaned close to his ear to whisper, "we should have a password-"
"How about a fried dumpling rice bowl?" Hidan purred, wriggling out of his partner's arms and throwing himself on the bed.
"How about you get off your lazy ass and set up that table and we'll dine in here."
Kakuzu didn't wait for Hidan to get up before heading out to buy dinner. Once down in the lobby, he spotted Suki and Atari talking together. Once he got closer he realized they were fighting. Suki wore a scowl and accusing look on his face while Atari was pleading and failing to seduce the little blonde Jashinist to peace.
"Suki, you can't seriously be thinking of leaving the brothel!" Kakuzu couldn't help but hover nearby, unnoticed to eavesdrop.
"Shut the fuck up, Atari- I'm through! I'm only a burden to you!" Suki snapped and he noticed tears threatening to flow.
"You're not a burden. What would make you think otherwise?"
"I never bring in much of your precious money because I don't have sex with any of the clients. Fuck, the only person I've ever had sex with is Hidan! We have never had sex with each other even!" Salty tears overflowed.
"Wait... when did you have sex with Hidan!?" Kakuzu shared Atari's jealousy, anger, and question.
"Why the fuck do you care?" Suki snapped, yet a sob racked his body.
"Tell me!" Atari made a move towards the other but stopped, hanging his head, "Please, love, tell me about it."
"I-It's a J-Jashinist's initiation..." Suki started, wiping his eyes with an arm, "Y-you's'posed ta join another Jashinist- Hidan and I were paired together. Now we're sorta like spouses- only until we find someone else willing to reconvert with us..."
Kakuzu started and turned, not wanting to hear anymore. He hurried to a food stand nearby offering rice and fried gyoza. He ordered the same thing Hidan had ordered. Once he had the food, he hurried back to the hotel to find Atari and Suki heading upstairs. He followed quietly.
"Are you sure you want to do this, love?"
"Of course, bastard! I've been waiting for this since that bastard Kuro stole you from me!"
"He never stole me- I was, and still am, yours and yours alone."
"Yeah right, you stupid whore..."
"Ah, c'mon, I have a heart, y'know. Tell you what- if it makes you feel better, we'll just cuddle tonight."
"I'd like that but-"
"You spoke the truth, I am indeed a whore. My religion makes me so by your definition of a whore. However, we have a rule for us and our own spouse."
"What's that?"
"We aren't expected to have intercourse with the one we truly love. Really, me not taking you is because I love you... if that makes any sense."
"It doesn't." Kakuzu finally spoke.
They stopped cold and turned to look at Kakuzu. They both blushed causing the miser to smirk and laugh.
"S-Stupid miser! Don't make fun!"
"I'm not, you two are just so cute together. It's about time... Although both of your religions suck."
"Better not let Hidan hear you say that."
They reached their floor then parted ways. Kakuzu paused at a sound coming from a door nearby. He walked off with a small smile, leaving the artists behind to hurry to his own lover. He still had questions to ask him though. He reached the door, expecting to find Hidan still lazing about and the table unmade. He opened the door and froze in the frame. Hidan was lazing about, yet the table was set as if done by a skilled busboy. The table was set for two and Kakuzu set the food on it before making his way over to the man lying on the bed, spread-eagle.
"I'm back, Hidan." Kakuzu cooed, supporting himself to hover above the back of the addressed.
"No shit." Hidan groaned, flipping to lie on his back and looping his arms around Kakuzu's neck.
"Did your sister teach you how to set tables?" He asked absentmindedly.
"Mmn... one of them. I'm fucking hungry, Kuzu." Hidan whined, using Kakuzu to pull himself up.
Kakuzu chuckled and helped the immortal to his feet and over to the table. Hidan gave a yawn before dropping his gyoza into his bowl of rice and mixing it. Kakuzu, on the other hand, was hesitant in bringing the dumpling to his mouth, still hidden by his mask. Hidan noticed.
"Oi, just take the damn thing off. I like you better without it." He scoffed, pulling a vial from one of his nearby bags.
Kakuzu obliged, pulling his mask down to reveal his stitched jaw. Hidan uncorked the vial and poured the red-orange liquid over his food. Kakuzu quirked a brow, unnoticed when the other replaced the near-empty vial back in his bag.
"What was that?" he asked, nibbling on his gyoza.
"A special spice."
"What kind?"
"One of mine..." he didn't seem too keen on talking for once, bringing a clump of the now-stained rice to his mouth.
"Do you know how old I am?" Kakuzu let the previous question go, asking this instead.
Hidan didn't answer, suddenly tense, statuesque. Kakuzu looked up from his food, startled. Hidan gave a small shudder with the inhale of breath.
"N-no..." Kakuzu wasn't sure he should tell his partner. When he told Atari and Deidara his age, they were shocked, even scared at first. Kuro didn't give a damn...
"Over a hundred." Kakuzu said at last, waiting with baited breath for his reaction.
"Heh... Kuro's right... I was way off. I really don't know you after all." Hidan choked and Kakuzu started, looking to his teary eyes.
"That's alright, Hidan... I don't know how old you are..." Kakuzu smiled lightly, reaching to stroke his partner's cheek.
"I-I'm twenty..." He answered, averting the miser's gaze and instead leaning into his caressing palm.
Again, Kakuzu let his suspicions slide. He sighed before taking a bite of another gyoza. Hidan also returned to eating once his partner's hand withdrew. The silence stretched.
"Hidan... I overheard Suki telling Atari about his spouse..." Kakuzu started awkwardly.
He prodded at the remaining dumpling. Hidan tensed once more and slowly raised his head from his own empty bowl. Their eyes bore into one another.
"I can explain," Hidan started, "I've known Suki since I first became a Jashinist. I needed a reason to keep myself from snapping for reasons I really don't want to discuss- ever. I heard about religion and their savior and my family's savior is Jashin. I went to join. In order to join, you must have a partner- a spouse, but not in a loving sense- and if both you and your partner are new you must be watched, but that's not important."
"Who watches what, Hidan?" Kakuzu urged gently.
"An initiation ritual, sex... Suki was the only one I actually got along decently with and... we didn't know what was to happen until we were led to a room with a Preist watching. We don't exchange vows, like I said, it's only sex... more friendly sex though..." Hidan clearly was having trouble yet Kakuzu understood and nodded.
"You're both just friends- the sex was only a ritual to you two. I understand, Hidan." Kakuzu smiled.
"If I can find someone I really love and is willing to convert- then I will be aloud to convert the person myself, only vows will be exchanged." Hidan exchanged further.
"Don't expect me to convert any time in my lifespan." Kakuzu snorted.
"Wasn't plannin' on it you fucking shit-headed miser!" Hidan snapped with a slight pout when silent.
"Want my last dumpling?" Kakuzu laughed lightly, Hidan's pout irresistibly cute.
He held it to Hidan's mouth whom rolled his eyes, taking a bite from the food and pulling it out of the tan hand with his mouth. Kakuzu stood, picking up the empty bowls and carrying them to the sink while the Jashinist polished off his fried gyoza. Kakuzu pulled off his cloak for the first time in front of his new lover. Hidan stood from the table and upon seeing the broad, tanned chest laced with stitched scars, he couldn't help but ogle once more. The larger noticed and snatched his wrist, dragging him over to the bed once more. He pulled the gray-haired male on top of him as he lay on his back.
Hidan giggled and placed his forearms flat on either side of Kakuzu's face. Kakuzu brought their faces together, drawing them into a passionate kiss. Hidan tried to win the tongue battle and almost succeeded- however was distracted by hands ghosting their way south. Kakuzu's mouth smirked against the zealot's before slipping his hands in his pants, resting them on his lower cheeks. Hidan's blush increased and he pulled from the kiss to let Kakuzu regain his breath. Slowly, Hidan's pants were slid down.
Kakuzu rolled them so he now hovered above, successfully yanking off the obstacle and throwing it to the side of the room. He bent and let his tongue mix with threads, dipping into his belly button. Hidan giggled, wrapping his bare legs around Kakuzu's waist, pulling to have the groins tease one another. Kakuzu moaned and stood, rolling out of the bed and hesitantly pulling his pants down with his boxers before hurrying back on top of Hidan. There weren't many stitches running past his waist line, yet Hidan couldn't care less as Kakuzu positioned himself accordingly. A shudder passed through Hidan as the other began to ease into him, unprepared. Kakuzu paused once Hidan winced and his grip on his partner tightened.
"You like it rough, right?" Kakuzu sounded a bit unsure but grinned when Hidan replied with a grin of his own.
"Bring it on, bitch."
"You asked for it- and you're the bitch." Kakuzu added, thrusting all the way in without care.
Hidan moaned out and Kakuzu withdrew a bit before slamming back in. A rhythm was made; it was like music to the lovers' ears. The moans increasing as the end was near. Hidan arching whenever his sweet spot was hit (quite often ;9)
"H-Hidan..."
"Ah! Wha-a-t?"
Kakuzu gave no answer, instead releasing deep within. Before giving in to exhaustion, he helped the Jashinist finish. He was satisfied with the moan as Hidan released, splattering the miser's hand, and any other obstacle nearby, crying his name. Kakuzu heaved a sigh, rolling to lay on his back besides his partner. They lie panting for awhile before Hidan turned to bury his face in the crook of the tan neck.
"What did you want to say... or were you just crying my name 'cause I'm fucking awesome?"
"I was going to say I love you- but you just ruined the moment." The miser growled halfheartedly, moving so they were facing each other, lying on their sides.
"Fuck- I love ya too, miser." Hidan smirked, his eyelids drooping.
"Please don't start rubbing in my age like the others." Kakuzu sighed, drooping his arm over his lover and drawing him close to his chest to rest his chin on the gray locks turned silver by the limited moonlight.
"No promises- although... we didn't get a chance to use those chains..." Hidan struggled to stay awake a moment longer.
"I have chains and much more fun awaiting at the base... Hidan... if you want."
"Mn, fuck yeah..." Hidan trailed, slipping into the world of dreams, wrapped in Kakuzu's loving arms.
