"Y-you do…?" Deidara nodded. "Oh my Jashin! I'm so sorry, Deidara! I didn't mean to…! I…was being a brat."

"Brat my ass! Those bastards!" Hidan shouted. He knew about Deidara and he got worked up and practically went berserk until he heard that Deidara had killed them and it was over, but still, Hidan was mad.

"They're gone now, some misfortunate accident happened and the house just so happened to blow up." Deidara sighed.

"I have a feeling you had something to do with that, un."

"Well, what'd you do?"

"Blew them up, un." Rix giggled.

"My point exactly." Her tears were gone and she stifled a yawn.

"Sleep, now that you've talked about it, you might not have the dreams again, un." Rix nodded and lied back down with her back against Hidan's chest. He pulled her closer, in a possessive way, saying 'Touch her and you die.' She snuggled into him anyways, knowing that he's thoroughly pissed.

"Thank you, Hidan…" She slipped away and woke up the next morning to Hagane entering her body again. When he does that it's like pouring ice water all over her. Rix sits up, Hidan's arm falling off of her limply. Sasori and Deidara seemed to have been awake already.

"Morning, guys." They turn to her and Deidara smiles.

"How'd ya sleep, un?" Rix nodded, saying it was nightmare free.

"Hn? Oh, Rix, you're awake…" Hidan's voice was heavy with sleep but he sat up anyways. "I'm glad you're feeling better…" Hidan patted her back and in turn it causes another coughing fit. Hidan hissed through his teeth, realizing he just screwed up.

Her coughs start off dry but become laced with more blood. She recovered soon and started gasping for air. She hugged Hidan. "I don't want to die." Rix whispered.

"You're not going to die, I'll make sure of it." Hidan whispered to her. Rix sighed in contentment and snuggled into his arms.

"You better." Rix whispered back. Hidan chuckled and tightened his grip on her then loosened it, like in a hug, but kept his arms wrapped around her. Hidan finally woke up all of the way and started to remember yesterday's events. The news and how angry he had been all rushed back into his body. He gripped her and pulled her closer to his body. "Hey, guys?" The other two men in the room looked up to her, though both had been watching her from the corners of their eyes. "I just wanted to thank you, I can't believe that you could put up with me this long without trying to kill me or something of the sort." Deidara chuckled.

"Killing you would be the exact opposite of we want to do, un." Rix smiled back and looked to Hidan.

"Thank you, I'm glad you're here for me…" Hidan locked eyes with Rix, gazing into her deep brown orbs.

Oh, Jashin, forgive me for this! Hidan captured Rix's lips gently with his. She was stunned and froze before easing into the kiss, their lips moving in time with each other. They broke away from the other with their faced painted red.

"I'm sorry." They apologized simultaneously, looking down and away.

Was that my first real kiss…? Yes, it has to be, the others weren't meaningful, only lustful. Or was that lust too…? I don't know anymore! Rix felt a hand caress her cheek and faced Hidan as he did so.

"I'm not sorry, actually." Hidan's eyes begged for more and Rix scanned his eyes for that one glimmer she knew too well. It never showed, only an emotion she didn't think she knew. Rix's eyes answered his begging. Hidan pushed her down so that she laying beneath him. Sasori was about to go berserk and make Hidan with he could die when Deidara gripped his wrist, pulling Sasori back towards him.

"Danna, un, calm down, he's not going to ravish her, she'll rip him to pieces if he starts to do anything. I know it. Remember when you started to go too far a long while back, un?" Sasori nodded, still watching the two only look into each other's eyes, nothing else. "I freaked out, she'll do the same, un." Sasori nodded again. Hidan finally planted a single soft peck on Rix's lips. He went back for another longer kiss, Hidan begged for entrance but Rix denied. He softly bit down on her bottom lip and she gasped, Hidan taking this advantage and pushing his tongue into her mouth.

Hidan enjoyed the taste that was uniquely Rix's, it was bittersweet. Hidan massaged Rix's tongue with his own and a soft moan vibrated through his mouth but got lost in Hidan's throat, only Hidan and Rix knew she made it. They broke for air, panting slightly.

"Hidan…why are you doing this?"

"Yeah, that's right, why is he doing this…" Sasori grumbled.

"I…I think I-" Hidan got stopped by a book that Sasori had been reading hitting him on the head.

"BULLSHIT!" Sasori shouted.
