Chapter 13- Apologize (for the way I feel)

-------------

Deidara was none too happy to say the least when he was roughly thrown haphazardly into a chair in Pein's office. He hadn't wanted to come here in the first place, why would he when he had such a willing and naked prize waiting for him down the hall?

This was bullshit, the only fathomable reason that Pein would want to talk to him in his eyes, would be to rub in his face what he had done with Sasori. That was all this was going to be, some new way to torture and make fun of him for his ignorance.

"What do you want, un!?"

"There is no need to be so rude, Deidara I simply want to talk to you"

Deidara crossed his arms over his chest, clearly displeased to be in the redheads presence. The next words he spoke came out almost a whisper, an angry muttered curse.

"The last thing I want is to talk to you, un"

Pein chuckled lowly to himself, such a defiant boy. He must have been such a pain for Sasori to break. Looking directly into the blonds azure eyes Pein chose his next words carefully.

"Are you happy with what you have done, Deidara?"

The blond looked confused to say the least.

"I mean, Itachi of course"

Deidara looked absently at Pein for a moment before shrugging, as if he really didn't care either way.

Pein sighed, rubbing his temples.

"Deidara, Itachi is what caused this whole mess in the first place"

That got the reaction Pein had wanted, as the blond stood up, grabbing him by the collar and inching dangerously closer.

"Don't blame other people for shit that is your fault, un! This is all your fault! You and that WHORE Sasori! YOU DID THIS!"

Pein, just laughed at Deidara's feeble attempts to intimidate him, pushing the younger man off of him and back into the chair with little effort.

"You Don't seem to understand, Itachi came to me earlier this week, and he told me what Sasori had done, it was only fitting that he be punished"

The blonds eyes widened as Pein continued his story, explaining every detail. Right down to what his demands had been, and Sasori's refusal, Sasori offering himself instead. It was at that moment that Deidara realized. It was no ones fault but his own.

He had to find Sasori, right now!

Pein only smiled as Deidara rushed out the door, problem solved.

-------------------------

Konan made her way down the hall, after stopping by the kitchen to get something to drink. Sucking someone off under a desk could really give a girl cotton mouth.

She stopped as she came to Sasori's door, raising her hand and rapping delicately on the hard wood. She stood for several minutes, gaining no answer. Suddenly she heard a loud crash on the other side of the door, she knocked again this time frantically.

Minutes passed again, no answer.

This time there was no crashing, there was no noise at all, just an eerie silence that seemed to consume the whole hallway. After a few more moments, Konan began to hear sobbing.

Without a second thought she kicked the door with all her might, it flew from its hinges with ease crashing to the ground a few feet short of the door frame.

-------------

Sasori just couldn't take it anymore.

All the lies, the betrayal, the stinging feeling in his chest.

Why did anyone like to feel?

It hurt, so much.

This was the exact reason he had made himself into what he was, this half human half puppet....monstrosity. In the end it was all just to be rid of the pain.

What could he do now? He was already inhuman. He slammed his hands down on the wooden desk in front of him, several of the vials of poison that rested on its surface crashing to the ground and breaking. The loud crashing caught his attention, looking to the mess on the floor with disgust he wrinkled his nose, rubbing his temples in frustration. All that hard work, gone.

Suddenly as he watched the broken glass the deadly liquid dripping from the mess and forming a small puddle on the floor, he knew what he could do. He knew exactly how to end this pain, oh holy gods! there was a way to end all of this stupid feeling!

Reaching into one of his desk drawers, he searched through several vials until he found the one he was looking for. The only poison he had ever made that would kill its victim painlessly. He had made it when he and Deidara had first become partners, in case he had ever needed to dispose of the blond personally. Thankfully he never had, and now it was here, all for him.

Pulling a syringe from the same drawer, he filled it slowly with the amber liquid, taking care to tap out all of the tiny air bubbles. Examining it, he smiled wondering why he hadn't simply come to this solution sooner, it was only logical. He silently blamed Deidara for that one, taking away his reason, that is.

He wanted to laugh, to giggle with joy and exuberance, but all that escaped him was a strangled noise. It sounded more like a chocked sob, than a laugh.

Bringing the syringe to his heart he gently pricked the needle into his flesh, his thumb pressing the plunger down. He almost felt warm as the deadly amber liquid seeped into his bloodstream, he could feel it resonating throughout his veins, lulling him into a deep sleep. It was like art, dying, like a bittersweet symphony of defeat, an opera of lost hope. It was beautiful. Finally he could be free.

Suddenly the door flew off of its hinges. He didn't care, he could barely move anymore anyway, the poison was supposed to take a couple hours, but injected straight into the heart, he only had minutes left. Turning his head slowly he smiled up into the worried face before him. Konan looked terrified at the scene before her.

"Heh...Konan...tell...tell Deidara...goodbye for me..tell him...that I still loved him.. I'm sorry..I"

Everything went black before he could even finish talking, this was it. This was the end of Akasuna No Sasori, it was a shame that something so trivial as love was what finally killed him. He could have laughed at the irony.

----------

Konan was shocked as the door fell and the scene before her unfolded. Entering the room, she found Sasori hunched over on the floor leaning against his large bed, a spent syringe protruding from his chest. The moment she saw him, she knew what he had done. She rushed quickly over to now unconscious puppet master, he looked peaceful and serene, a smile spread on his lips.

When he had asked her to tell Deidara that he loved him, she had almost broken into tears. She knew she had to find the antidote, Sasori had to live! He and Deidara had to work this out, they had to make up, it was obvious to everyone that they loved each other. This had to be a happy ending, it couldn't end like this!

Speeding over to Sasori's desk she pulled out several different antidote vials, hoping that one of them would work and counteract whatever he had injected himself with. Choosing one of the vials, she loaded another syringe she rushed back to the redhead and without hesitation stabbed it into his chest.

Deidara was terrified when he came to Sasori's door and saw that it had been kicked in. His heart was racing as he crossed the threshold and into the room, where he saw Konan, hunched over an unconscious Sasori. Immediately he knew what the puppet master had done. Rushing over to the puppet master he knelled on the ground next to him, tears threatening his vision, how would he say he was sorry now!

No!

God damnit no!

Instinctively, he picked up the discarded vial that laid next to the redhead, inspecting it he knew exactly what the poison had been. Rushing past Konan he began tearing through the drawers of Sasori's desk.

Fuck! Where the hell had Sasori put that antidote!

ha!

He could have jumped for joy as he came upon the vial he was looking for, popping it open and rushing back to the man he loved, pushing Konan out of the way. He put the vial to his own lips, holding the bitter tasting liquid in his mouth, before crashing his lips against Sasori's. Forcing the unconscious redhead to swallow all of it.

Wrapping his arms around the scorpion, all he could do was wait for the effects of the antidote to start. He held Sasori close, running his hands through the short fiery hair he had missed so much, he could feel tears brimming in his eyes, and he didn't care. Was it a crime to cry while the man you loved was dying in your arms?

He could feel Sasori start to breathe a little more evenly, and his heart skipped a beat. He had to make it, he had to live!

"Please.....please wake up"

He let his face fall to rest on the redheads shoulder, he couldn't hold back the tears anymore.

"heh...I didn't think you'd cry over me like a woman, brat"

Deidara's teary cerulean eyes snapped up to meet the intense honey eyes of his master.

Thank god, that snide comment told him that Sasori was going to be okay. He was pushed back to the ground as Sasori stood up, still a little wobbly from the poison.

"What did you come here for anyways, brat I thought you had made it pretty clear that you hate me"

Deidara looked up from where he had fallen on the floor, a look in his eyes, almost as if he knew everything. Almost as though he blamed himself.

"I....I'm..so sorry Master,un!" he stood slowly opening his arms to embrace the puppet master, and pulling him close.

"It's my fault, I saw you with Pein...and...I just...I should have let you explain, un. And so I...it was stupid..."

"I love you, Sasori."

Sasori could feel tears threatening his own vision. Finally this was all going to be solved, everything was going to be alright.

"I forgive you Deidara, and I love you too"

Konan could have squealed, this was such a kodak moment.
