Chapter Four - Introductions

--

I looked up from the floor to look at him, "Floor seven" I spoke monotonously.

I saw a smile flash across his slim lips, "That's the same as me, un. Funny huh?" his voice seemed to straight, slightly sounding as if he forced something out of it. His eye seemed to speak to me, it looked at me sadly. I felt like comforting him, I felt like telling him everything would be okay. 'Wait! What am I thinking?! I forgot about Him, I totally dismissed Orochi from my mind!' I didn't respond to the blond and his smile faded. It didn't bother me though, I knew it was fake.

"So, what's your name un? Mine's Deidara." As he spoke, I knew what was wrong with his voice earlier. He forced happiness. His voice was casual now, though his face showed no outward emotion.

"Sasori." I spoke bluntly. Over the last year, I noted my change. I was now more stoic and neutral than before. I hated, no, loathed human contact. It was all Orochimaru's fault.

I stopped. I didn't feel anything. Why didn't I? Konan's words echoed through my head, 'You don't even seem to enjoy visiting Orochimaru anymore! You're treating him like a routine; everything is lifeless to you now.'

Was it true? Was I falling out of love with him? My emotions must have shown on my face, as Deidara asked, "Sasori un? Are you alright?"

I blinked, "Nothing's wrong. I just remembered I forgot to feed my cat." My voice remained toneless.

Deidara appeared worried, yet he had a hidden emotion in his eye that I could not decipher. Another 'ding' sounded and we both exited the elevator. "Where are you going hmm?" He asked me with a fake smile on his face.

"A meeting" I said lifelessly.

"Oh. Same here." He spoke dejectedly.

We both continued to walk in silence and he seemed to understand my anti-social behaviours. It seemed to bother me that this male was so quiet. He didn't seem like the type to be quiet. I shook my head, wondering why I kept thinking about this total stranger.

"I guess I'll see you later Sasori, this is my stop un." The blond said, and I was about to nod in response but I saw the number on the door, and I smirked.

"Looks like you won't be yet Deidara," I said in an amused tone, turning.

The blood looked confused for a second before his face lit up, "You're smiling Sasori!" He said cheerfully.

This time I could tell that his joy was real and I wished it could be preserved forever, sealed within an eternal art piece. His words, though, and thoughts seemed to hit me as I blinked and frowned, "Don't let it get to you brat." I said in an annoyed tone. 'Why was I smiling around a total stranger? Why… why did I see such an amiable beauty in his face?'

"You coming?"

His voice broke me out of my thoughts and I grunted, walking into the room.

There was a circle of chairs and I observed many people, both male and female within this circle. One stood out particularly to me.

He (I wasn't too certain on the gender, for an orange swirled mask blocked their face, but there wasn't any evidence supporting that it was of feminine nature) had dark, black, spiky hair. He seemed to be rather tall in height (though he was sitting) and he wore this odd shirt. On the left side he had these black things (I could never find a way to describe them otherwise) linked together and black gloves. Overall, I thought the guy was rather suspicious and I did not like him.

I then heard a female voice, "And here is the other newcomer, Sasori." I blinked and look at the girl with brown hair and she had a pin with the name 'Shizune' on it.

I sighed and sat down, the blond having to sit next to me.

"Now let's begin…" Shizune spoke, "Let's introduce ourselves."

I listened as each person spoke and their problems were revealed though, I only really paid attention to Deidara and the masked-person.

As his turn came up, he stood up and spoke in a rather unexpected way, "Tobi's name is Tobi, and Tobi is a good boy! Tobi is twenty-five years old. Tobi has a boyfriend named Zetsu and he loves Zetsu a lot. But…" He then looked down a bit sadly or shyly, I couldn't tell which, "Zetsu has two personalities and one of them is evil and bad. He scares Tobi a lot…" The now internally-dubbed 'masked-idiot' sat down.

Though, the male's voice and his actions really did surprise me. So many things seemed to contradict within this 'boy' (though I highly doubted he was). He was just too mysterious.

When it was Deidara's turn, his voice changed drastically.

"My name is Deidara, un. I am twenty-two years old. I have a partner who is a bit umm… bi-polar or something and he sometimes can be… rather…" I noticed Deidara's actions and I could feel his sorrow. This blond, he made me feel so... different. It was if I were bound to him by some invisible string. And, I didn't know why. "Mean to me..." He then sat down. I also noticed that Tobi was paying close attention to Deidara and was carefully observing him. This made me dislike the masked-idiot further, and I really didn't understand why. I just met Deidara for Kami's sake!

I then noticed several eyes on me, jolting me back to reality.

It was my turn.
