This one is annoyingly fluffy in my opinion.


21. First Scar

"You got in a fight?" Kakuzu said, reaching out and touching Hidan's ear thoughtlessly. The albino made a small noise with the back of his throat and Kakuzu jerked his hand back, assuming he had hurt the boy. The boy shifted uncomfortably. "Yeah, he cut my earring out, can you believe it? I liked that one..." He lightly touched the notch on his ear. "It'll probably never grow back. I donno though... It looks kind of cool. We match now Kuzu!"

22. First Reminder

Kakuzu was by no means a generous person, which was why it confused him when he told Hidan that he could stay at his place for a bit after the mugging. Perhaps, he mused it was the sight of Hidan bruised and cut, broken. Yes, he thought, touching his own scars.

That was definitely the reason.

23. First Defense

Kakuzu quickly decided he did not like hanging out with Hidan's fake school friends. (He knew they were fake because Hidan had listed his friends before; a blond artist who moved away 4 months ago, a shy rich girl whose parents hated him, a glasses-wearing lesbian, and him.) His fake friends were rude and annoying, but Hidan insisted.

Still, their endless harassment grew tiring.

"Why don't you ever drink?" bitched one particularly annoying fake friend at Kakuzu, some bastard named Suigetsu. "What are you a pussy or what?"

Kakuzu was about to retaliate when he felt a smaller body lean against him.

"Kuzu's a straight-edger," said Hidan through his cigarette smoke. "You know, clean parties and that shit."

The annoying man snorted. "That's fucking lame."

"Hey, at least Kakuzu doesn't have any blackmail worthy moments on film, Suigetsu."

Suigetsu paused, snorted, then walked away.

Hidan grinned up at the taller man, still leaning heavily on him. "See man, I got your back."

24. First Surprise

Kakuzu was not easily surprised, but his new friend's apparent love of classical music definitely did it.

25. First Bandage

By the time Kakuzu had pulled all the glass out of Hidan's hand the smaller boy had stopped crying and now resigned himself to silent shaking. As he bandaged the white, delicate, mutilated hand he asked as gently as his scarred mouth could muster "What happened to you?" but the boy just whispered "Nothing. Nothing happened," over and over. So Kakuzu remained silent and concentrated on remembering the first-aid classes he took several years back, because he was sure neither him nor his homeless friend could afford a trip to the hospital.

It wasn't until almost a week later that he would learn from a fellow party-goer of the confrontation between a snake of a man and the tipsy albino, where the man had said things, things about Hidan's personal life, very loudly and very rudely. He would learn that Hidan had seemed fine at the moment but then had taken a bottle of beer and disappeared.

But for now he just bandaged.

26. First Purchase

"No Hidan."

"Why not?" whined the silver haired man. "C'mon, I'm hungry man!"

Kakuzu frowned again. "No Hidan."

"You're such a cheap ass bastard! I'm anemic man, I need to keep my energy up!"

There was an awkward silence which Hidan broke abruptly, never able to leave a silence for too long.

"Fine, whatever, forget I fucking asked!"

"You passive aggressive bitch, just pick a damn flavor!"

Pink eyes lit up in surprise and a scarred mouth twitched as money was pulled out to purchase an ice cream cone.

27. First Sleep

Kakuzu had grown so use to Hidan leaning on him he didn't notice anything until Suigetsu had snapped at him "Hey, he falls asleep on you you carry him home. That's the rule."

And sure enough Kakuzu looked down and the albino was sleeping. He had almost assumed Hidan didn't sleep considering how he had never managed to wake before him when he slept at his house but that couldn't be true could it?

He carefully picked up Hidan with a gentleness that felt unnatural to him and carried him to his home without waking him.

28. First Hate

He had never seen Hidan so angry.

Sure the albino wasn't saying anything but he was shaking violently and the look in his eyes disturbed Kakuzu extremely.

It was amazing what an old picture album could do.

"I hate him." whispered Hidan. "Why would he... He took this when he... Why would he send it to her? What kind of a sadist... Lucky I found it or she would have found it and..."

The boy's voice kept cracking, fury lacing his voice raggedly.

"I hate him."

Kakuzu said nothing as Hidan attacked the photo album, ripping a family portrait to peices.

"I HATE HIM! I HATE HIM! I FUCKING HATE HIM! I FUCKING HATE HIM SO MUCH!" He pitched the photo album across Kakuzu's room.

"I HATE HIM!"

He crumpled and Kakuzu could hear him sobbing "Hates me... Hates me..." and he silently comforted his albino friend.

29. First Like

"You like me!" cheered the albino, jerking Kakuzu from his sleep.

"What?" he snapped, surprised to find Hidan kneeling above his sleeping bag.

"You like me! I just realized that!" Hidan grinned, flashing his surprisingly white teeth. "At first I thought you just felt sorry for me, but that's not it! You like me!"

Kakuzu stared at Hidan for a minute then turned around.

"Go to sleep or I'm taking my bed back and you can sleep on the damn floor."

30. First Encounter

Kakuzu shifted uncomfortably, wishing Hidan were more... sober at the moment.

"Mom, this is my friend, Hidan. Hidan, this is my mom."


21. Hidan's first scar. Um, annoying fluff. I like the ear notch.

22. Hidan reminding Kakuzu of he got his scars.

23. The first time Hidan defended Kakuzu. Lol , and his real friends are: Deidara (the fact that he moved away resolves plotholes only I probably noticed.) Hinata (SHUT UP IT COULD BE CUTE) and Karin (Mentioned in last chapter. I like her.)

24. The first time Hidan really surprised Kakuzu. Lol. For some reason I can really picture him listen to classical music, playing air piano...

25. Right after the one from the last chapter where Kakuzu found Hidan. Yeah, I am talking about Orochimaru. Use your imagination (and context clues) for what he said.

first time Kakuzu bought something for Hidan. More annoying fluff.

27. The first time Kakuzu saw Hidan sleeping. Even more fluff.

28. The first time Hidan ever expressed hatred for someone. His father mailed his mother an old photo album but he found it before his mom could. That reopened some wounds.

29. The first time Hidan realizes Kakuzu actually likes him. Okay, I like this fluff.

30. The first time Hidan had an encounter with Kakuzu's mother. Because she exists, he's not just conviently an orphan or something.


I want to continue this, but I'm running dangerously short on First scenarios. If anyone could suggest words like that I'd be soooo grateful. (Just please no horribly cliche ones like "Kiss Date Etc"

Please review, no flames.
