Sakura had had a long day at work. Several broken bones, a fractured pelvis, a damaged liver, a few punctured lungs, infections from people who refused prior wound treatment, five snake bites, and three burn victims. Apparently a team of genin had attempted a new way to start a camp fire. It was routine work but filling out the paper work afterwards with Lee talking about how youthful she was after she had healed whatever he had broken this time was what made it seem long. She went 'home' only to find Deidara just sitting around waiting for her to make dinner. Would she rather he try to blow the place up? No weapons of any kind were allowed in the vicinity, but he could be creative and try something new. Perhaps she should be thankful for small blessings.
She decided to make something easy. A simple vegetable soup would do. As she was chopping up ingredients with a chakra scalpel (no knives), she asked him, "Who is your leader?" "Leader-sama, un." As if Sakura could have expected anything else. "What is Leader-sama's name?" "Leader-sama, un."
She divided the soup into two bowls and placed them on the table. Deidara kept looking at her gloves while she asked him if he would rather stay a prisoner or answer her questions.
"If this is being a prisoner, I'll take both it and you if you want, un."
"That's it! You are not going to get another bite of food this evening!" Sakura reached over to take his bowl from him only to find that it was empty.
"That's okay, un. I already finished eating while you were talking, un." And another day had passed.
As time went on, Deidara showed increasing interest in Sakura, or rather her hands. It was rather unnerving. She supposed she could use this to her advantage as seduction was a method of extracting information, but she preferred not to. They were already getting too close for her comfort. He surprised her as she was getting ready for work one morning by saying "You have nothing to hide, un."
Sakura responded by nervously stating, "I don't know what you're talking about." Instead of letting the conversation end with that, Deidara just continued. "See? That just shows that you are hiding something, un. If you weren't, you would have said something along the lines of 'Of course I don't' or 'All ninja must know how to hide', un."
"Look, it's my life, okay? I don't need something else for people to make fun of." Deidara was starting to become upset at the fact that she seemed to be ashamed of her power.
"And I repeat, you have nothing to hide, un."
