Truth Doesn't Make a Noise
Ch.3
I stuck my long nail under the clipper, I prepared myself for pain. But instead it just felt like pressure, no pain at all. After an hour of sitting there filing them to smooth pointless nails I was finally done. The machines were dead from all the filing, good thing we bought two.
When I came out Deidara was passed out on the couch. He looked so odd sleeping, like something was troubling him but he was still peaceful. I looked for a moment longer and then put the blanket on him and went to sleep too.

(Dream sequence)
"Did you put the morphine in her yet?" The red headed doctor said.
"No, I have it now..." said another coming out from a room with a needle.
The needle came closer to my skin again but instead I jumped up and tried to get away. But the room spun, there was blood everywhere. Then everything went black.
-
I woke up this time on the floor and my foot tangled in the blanket instead of tearing up the pillows. I laid there a minute and waited to see if he woke up too or not.
Oh he'll wake up to a little box falling but when a grown human falls off the bed he doesn't move.
I slowly untangled myself, got up and fixed the bed. Then silently I tiptoed into the living room. The clock read seven in the morning. I looked from Deidara to the T.V. and then plopped in front of him.
"ABOOGABOOGABOOGABOOGA!!!" I yelled, "hmm....ERRAWRMFLAAAAGERYUMO!!"
Deidara just snorted and turned on his other side. So I crawled to the T.V. and flipped through the channels. But I was stopped by a cartoon of a little girl and a talking monkey with red boots.
Why is a monkey wearing boots?
"Where are we going?...."Lake, Hill, Party." The cartoon girl went on. "We went to the lake; we just climbed the hill..."-
The show was stupid already, but I couldn't turn away from it.
"Oh no Swiper the fox!" the girl exclaimed.
"We have to stop him!" the monkey said.
Then in unison they said" Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping, Swiper no swiping!
Then the fox said "Oh man" and ran away.
Does that actually work? Hmm...
"Deidara! Deidara! Wake sleepy head! I have to ask you something!" I yelled shaking him back and forth. Sleepily he got up.
"Huh? Yea what do you have to ask me? Hmm?" He rubbed his eyes.
"Ok, stand right there and try to take this remote from the table."
"Ok...Un." He reached for the remote but as he did I shoved my hand out in front of him and said
"Deidara no swiping, Deidara no swiping, Deidara no swiping!"
He stopped a minute and gave me a weird look, then snatched it from the table and turned off the T.V. Then he went back to sleep.
I guess it doesn't work ...stupid brain cell killing show.
I went to the kitchen and looked through the cabinets for food. There was a box of "Fruity Pebbles." They looked good so I ate them. The only thing was that I ate the last of the cereal. I hope he won't be mad. They were amazing! The second best thing I have tasted since I woke up. But I accidentally ate the rest of the box.
Crud I hope he doesn't notice.
When I finished eating, and since he wasn't getting up anytime soon, I started looking threw that closet again. I found that mysterious little box that fell out last time. I opened it and there was a ring inside. There was a light blue gem in the middle and a black marking in the middle of it. I didn't know why he would keep it in the back of this closet. It brought many questions to me, like if he was in some kind of gang? Maybe they all had rings like this as their symbol. Or maybe I'm just jumping to conclusions.
I put it back in the closet, and then I decided to make his bed. I should somehow repay him for helping me, even if this is just a little thing. About a minute passed and I was already bored just sitting there on his bed. I went back to the living room and started poking at Deidara's side. He made some weird snorting sound and turned his head towards me. I fell over laughing at him, and I was a little loud because he slowly pick up his head and looked at me.
"What are you laughing at? Hmm?" he mumbled.
"You!" I giggled.
"Huh? Why? Hmm?" he said becoming more alert.
"You snorted when I poked you." I smiled.
"You poked me? Hmm?"
"Yea I got bored and was going to try to wake you up again but instead you made a funny sound and I fell over laughing." I said.
"Oh...ok then." He said putting his head back down.
"Sorry it was funny."
"Its fine, I should get up anyways. Un." He pushed himself up and sat for a minute staring at the floor. Then he got up and went to the bathroom. I fix the couch, and he came back putting on a t-shirt.
"Thanks. Yeah." He said coming back in, then made his way to the kitchen.
"Hey, where did all the Fruity Pebbles go!? Un!" He asked.
"Um...what would you say I f I said I ate the last of it?"
" Did you? Hmm?"
"Maybe..."
"It's ok but don't eat all of it again. You can eat some but they are my favorite food so save me the last of it next time. Un."
"Ok sorry."
"It's fine but get dressed were going to the store. Yeah."
"Why?"
"I'm getting more cereal. Yeah."
"You mad?"
"No, but nobody comes between me and my Fruity Pebbles! Un!" He half smiled.
I laughed, "Ok."
We got dressed and instead of driving, thank god, we walked two blocks down to the little food store.
"Does my head look weird in this hat?" I asked him. I always feel like people are staring and they probably are.
"No not really. There's a little bit of a bump but it could pass off as the hat being weird. Yeah." He said.
"Alright." I sighed.
We turned the corner to the store and I almost slammed into a man. He was tall and skinny with spiky orange hair. He had a worn out mad look to him. I also felt like I have met this guy before, something seemed familiar about him.
"Whoa sorry." I said
"No problem just..." The man looked at me strangely, "just watch were your going next time."
"Oh, hey Doctor Hiuko. Un." Deidara said extending out his hand.
"Deidara! Haven't seen you in a while, how have you been?" Dr. Hiuko said shaking his hand.
"I been around, just been busy with some things. How bout you? Hmm?"
"I've been well there's been a lot of work at the hospital. Who do we have here?" He looked at me down then up and stopped at my hat. I felt my cheeks and ears get hot as he stared.
"This is NeeChee, she's and old friend of mine. Yeah." Deidara said putting a hand on my shoulder.
"H-Hi," I stuttered, "nice to meet you." I said shaking his hand.
"So, you went to school with him" he asked.
"Uhh, no I- um we just-"
"We just ran into each other a little while ago. She was a friend of another buddy of mine, and I haven't seen her in a while. Yeah." Deidara said saving me.
I don't know why I was getting all nervous around this random guy but something didn't feel right about him and he wouldn't stop staring.
"Well it was nice seeing you again doctor but we have to go. Un." Deidara said.
"Oh yes I better be going too. Nice meeting you NeeChee." He smiled and walked away.
The moment we got into the store Deidara looked at me and said:
"Are you ok? Hmm?"
"Um yea I'm fine it's just something about him wasn't right. Something was off." I twirled a piece of hair around my finger.
"Oh, why? He is real nice, been my doc since I got here. Yeah." He led the way down the cereal isle.
I sighed. He picked up a couple other things along with the cereal, and went to check them out. I really just wanted to go back to his house i feel like somebody is watching me or following us. I also want to rip these pants off; it's so uncomfortable with my tail.
It was and awkward silence between us on the way back, or at least it felt weird to me.
"I had another one of those dreams again..." I said
"Is my bed ok? Un." He said jokingly.
"Yea it's fine" I smiled," but it was with those guys again."
"Do you think they might have something to do with what happened to you? Hmm."
"I think so because there is no other reason for me to be dreaming of them."
"Do you remember what they look like? Hmm."
"Umm...one had long light blond hair, and the other had short raven colored hair with glasses. They were both tall and skinny too."
"They don't ring a bell. Yeah."
"Oh...great."
When we got back to his house he had a bowl of his cereal and I just sat on the couch thinking. After a minute he came and sat next to me. It was silent except for his loud crunching on the cereal.
"Deidara? Can I ask you something?" I asked.
"Go ahead. Yeah" he said.
"Um...ok I wasn't really snooping but when I was getting pillows out of your closet that time a little box fell out and there was a blue ring with a symbol on it. If it's not too personal to tell then what was it from?" I bit my lip.
He stopped chewing for a moment and then said with a mouth full of food, "Um well its nothing really, un. It's just a ring my parents gave me a long time ago, and I wanted to keep it safe so I put it in the box in the closet, yeah. That symbol on it just means blue, un."
"Oh, that's all?"
"Yeah what did you think it was? Hmm?" He looked up at me.
"Nothing, just wanted to know." I smiled.
There was something hidden behind his words. Something he wasn't telling me, not that I was going to hassle him for it. He obviously doesn't want to tell me but it feels like it's not very good.
Mizu!
