Chapter Five: We're alone

Deidara walked toward Orochimaru's hideout, not caring what would happen if he got caught. He didn't even have an escape plan.

I've gotta him what happened. Deidara thought of his secret lover as he walked on. He had clay-in-hand and was nearing the hideout when-

"Why are you back here?" called the worried voice of Kabuto, the man he loved and the father of his child. Deidara's eyes lit up and he ran to the gray haired boy as fast as he could.

"You know it's dangerous for you to be here," Kabuto spoke into Deidara's hair.

"I had to come. I just had to,hmm," The blonde looked up with tearful eyes. "There's something I need to tell you. It's just I-"

"Shh," Kabuto put a finger to Deidara's lips, a predatory look coming into his eyes. "I sense another chakra... someone's here."

"That's what I-" Deidara began.

"Did you bring someone with you? Who? Why?" Kabuto shot the questions at Deidara angrily. Was their love no longer a secret? What if Orochimaru found out?

"No. I..." Deidara was crying now. Tears poured out of his eyes as he sniffled. "I'm-I'm..."

"You're what?" Kabuto had to know. Was his love dying? Had he gotten AIDs from Orochimaru? Was it something he could cure?

"I'm pregnant."

Silence.

"What?" The docter stared, shocked.

"I'm pregnant," the blond repeated. "And it's your child, hmm."

"That's-that's impossible! You-you're a g-g-guy! I know! I s-saw!" Kabuto began walking back and forth, running his fingers through his hair repetitavly. His medical mind was going faster than the speed of light. He turned to Deidara. "You're joking, right? This is all a prank. Ha-ha. Very funny. I laughed." He looked around. "Where ever you are, come out. I know you're there."

"I'm not joking!" Deidara's eyes filled with tears and his voice squeaked. "Orochimaru did something to me and...I don't know how, but now I-"

"No! This is why I don't like girls!" Kabuto stepped away from Deidara as if he was some deadly plague. "Get out. Now. You filthy... You're discusting...No...That's not my child...it isn't...it can't be..." With every word, Kabuto took another step backward. "YOU BITCH!" He spat, and then he ran, back to Orochimaru's hideout, crying tears Deidara couldn't see.

Deidara fell back and watched the one thing that he thought he had loved run away into the shadows. The one person he thought had loved him back. Warm tears fell from his eyes and painful sobs ripped throughout his body.

Am I that awful? He thought, I finally find Kabuto and I get shot down, hmm.

He stood and ran from that spot as fast as he could, barely even navigating his own path. Trees and bushes were obstacles that he didn't care if he ran into them or not. Kabuto had refused.

Who will take care of me and help me raise this… Monster inside of me, hmm? How could this have happened to me. Deidara, the youngest member of the Akatsuki, hmm? Why?

Night fell quicker than expected and soon Deidara was wandering blindly in the dark. He didn't care, the one thing he wished for right now was death. He didn't watch his back and he let his guard completely down, hoping some enemy shinobi would happen upon him and try to kill the young Akatsuki. He ran, not sure where he was or caring and when he finally tripped and fell, he didn't get up. It had started to rain soon after Deidara fell, but he stayed in the same spot, not even caring…

OOOOOOOOOOOO

Deidara had told Pain that he would be back by sundown, so when he didn't return by dark Pain used his Rinnegan to find the young Akatsuki..

"Itachi," called the leader, "Go to sector 4-9 and retrieve Deidara, I think he has been injured." Itachi nodded and disappeared from the hideout.

Hot, cold, crowded and alone. He was in the dark, yet blinded by light.

Will I die? He thinks, Can I? I wish I could, this life is too much, hmm.

"Please don't die!" A voice pleads, "I want to live!"

"Yes…" Replies Deidara, "But I don't, hmm."

Heat, sweat, moaning with pleasure, crying in pain. Wanting to die, wanting to live, why was he so conflicted?

Now warm and safe, arms wrapped around him.

"You can live," a soft voice said sweetly, "We can live here together, just us. Safe and sound, you'll never have to worry."

Deidara saw a large building that looked like a shrine with red walls and a curling roof. It was on a mountainside with tall trees that kept it hidden from view.

"We'll live here? Just us, hmm?" Deidara asked. He felt warm arms wrap around him from behind.

"Yes…"

Deidara woke up but kept his eyes closed, hoping that he could fall back into the later part of his dream, however, he could not seem to fall back asleep. He felt uncomfortable, like he was being carried bridal style. He slowly opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the emblem of the Akatsuki, the blood red rain cloud. The second thing he saw was the face of the member that was carrying him.

"Itachi, hmm!" He wanted to struggle out of the Uchiha's arms but he felt too weak to move.

"Yes, Deidara?" Itachi looked at him, his Sharingan de-activated. "What do you want?"

"Put me down…" Deidara suddenly felt sick. Itachi, sensing the situation set Deidara on his feet and held his long blonde hair out of the way as the teen retched. Itachi place one hand on the blonde's fore head fore a moment.

"You're getting a fever, we have to hurry." The Uchiha stated. He picked Deidara up again, not giving the teen time to protest and ran towards the Akatsuki hideout.

Itachi stared at the unconscious teen in his arms sadly.

If only you knew, Deidara, he thought, I wish that I could tell you the way I feel about you. Itachi had felt something for the blonde teen ever since he had joined the Akatsuki, and he only wished that the teen felt something back...

Well, there you have it! Does Deidara feel the same way about Itachi? Will he survive Kabuto's betrayal? Is pie really a delicious treat? Find out in the next chapter!
