-Homeroom-

"Good morning, Dei-chan." Deidara was pulled out of his thoughts by Itachi's harsh voice.

The blond looked up at Itachi and gave an apologetic smile before saying, "Good morning, Ita-kun. Sorry I didn't get a chance to call you yesterday, I had to run an errand for my mom, and then I had to work on my homework."

Itachi narrowed his eyes as he took his seat next to the smaller teen ignoring him for the rest of Homeroom.

"Soooo, Sasori," Pein started slowly, "I saw you walking with Blondie again yesterday."

Sasori raised an eyebrow in question and said in a bored tone, "So? What of it?"

Pein simply shrugged his shoulders before looking over at Deidara seeming quite uncomfortable next to Itachi. "So are you guys like friends now or what?" Pein looked back at Sasori, expecting an answer.

It was Sasori's turn to shrug his shoulders. He glanced at Deidara then back at Pein. "I guess so."

Pein nodded slowly then went back to reading his manga from yesterday.

Ring!

"Alright class, you're dismissed." Iruka said calmly before the class got up.

"So, Deidara." Itachi stated looking into Deidara's once bright azure eyes. "You're coming over tonight for dinner. Correct?" It was more of a demand then a question. Deidara nodded before gathering the remainder of his things and leaving the class with Itachi's arm around his waist.

"Hey, Sasori?" Pein poked said redhead with his pencil to get his attention. Sasori gave Pein an irritated expression before muttering a 'What?' Pein snickered at Sasori's ability to be annoyed so easily before asking, "We're still on for game night Friday, right?"

Sasori nodded slowly wondering why he asked. They always had game night every other Friday. So why ask for confirmation about this one?

Pein nodded, "Good." He looked around for a minute before asking, "Hey, so since you're friends with Iwa, why don't you invite him to game night with us?"

Sasori looked up in surprise at Pein's sudden invitation. He didn't invite just anyone to game night. So why Deidara?

Sasori tilted his head to the side with a raised eyebrow, "Why?"

Pein shrugged for the hundredth time that day and glanced at the lazy English teacher, Kakashi, before saying, "Because, he seems like he could use a night of fun." Pein's answer surprised Sasori even more. 'He seems like he could use a night of fun'? There had to be more to it than that…

"Okay sure. I'll invite Deidara to game night IF you tell me the real reason you want me to invite him." Sasori gave his pierced friend a challenging look before leaning back in his chair awaiting the older teen's answer.

Pein gave Sasori a small smile before saying, "There is no other reason, really. I mean, Deidara and Konan are good friends, and I think it would be nice to invite him over."

Sasori gave Pein a skeptical look. He knew he was hiding something, but what? He pushed the thought aside for now and nodded. "Okay, I'll ask him today in art then." Pein's smile grew and he nodded his 'okay' and they both went back to taking notes.

-Art Class-

'Why do I have to go over there tonight anyways, un? Doesn't he torment me enough in school?' Deidara let out an exasperated sigh and slammed his head on the desk with a grunt and a 'thud.'

"Something wrong, Dei?" Deidara lazily looked up from the desk top to see Sasori looking down at him with a raised crimson brow. Deidara sighed again before muttering a 'no' and laying his head back down.

"Are you sure nothing's wrong?" Sasori asked again as he sat in the empty stool next to Deidara.

Deidara gave Sasori a small smile before saying, "Yeah, everything's fine." He paused for a moment before saying, "I'm just not looking forward to going to Itachi's house for dinner tonight, that's all, un."

Sasori nodded slowly before frowning. "Aren't you two dating?" Deidara looked down and nodded before Sasori continued, "Then why wouldn't you want to go have dinner at his house?"

Deidara looked back up to make eye contact with Sasori. His chocolate brown eyes held a mix of question, curiosity, confusion, and…concern? Deidara shook his head. "I-I just don' feel like going over there tonight is all."

Sasori raised a brow at the blond's response before shrugging and nodding in understanding.

Halfway through the class, Sasori remembered Pein's request to invite Deidara for game night. Sasori tapped the younger teen on the shoulder, interrupting his painting of a scorpion sunbathing on a rock in the middle of the desert.

Deidara raised his gaze to meet Sasori's before asking, "Yes, Sasori Danna?"

Sasori smiled at the title before asking, "Are you free this Friday?"

Deidara raised both brows in surprise at the question. "Uh, I don't think I have anything planned, un. Why?"

"We want to invite you to game night this Friday." Sasori stated casually.

Deidara cocked his head to the side, "We?"

Sasori nodded, "Yeah. Me, Pein, Kisame, Kakuzu, and Konan. Oh, and we all talked it over, and it'd be okay if you wanted to invite Hidan, too."

Deidara looked up in thought then smiled brightly. "Okay sounds like a plan, un. Can't wait!"

Sasori couldn't help but smile back at his friend's cheery grin.

Ring!

Ring!

Ring!

"Alright class, paintings on the drying shelves and I'll see you tomorrow." Kurenai dismissed her class with a sweet smile.

"Are you serious?"

"Of course! I wouldn't make something like that up, ya know?"

"Your granny sounds like a total nut job, un!"

"She is!"

Sasori and Deidara were walking down the hall to the exit of the school talking and laughing about how crazy Sasori's grandmother, Chyo, was.

"Wow, un. She sounds really weird, but awesome at the same time!" Deidara let out another fit of laughter at the story of Chyo trying to put linger on the dog while trying to clean up some of the glitter she used to make the house 'doggy strip club.'

"She is, but she's a really good granny. You should come over and meet her sometime." Sasori flashed Deidara a bright smile causing the blond to blush and smile back.

"Okay! I-I mean sure. Sounds like fun, un." Deidara blush darkened slightly at his enthusiasm and his smile grew causing Sasori to smile even more too.

"So, how about sometime next week then?"

"Okay I'd love to! Maybe after scho-" Deidara stopped mid-sentence when he was abruptly grabbed and harshly jerked to be pressed up against a strong chest. Itachi.

"Who are you and why are you talking with my Deidara." Itachi's voice was harsh and his onyx eyes were cold.

"Akasuna Sasori." Sasori answered casually.

Itachi narrowed his eyes even more, "I don't want you to ever talk to him-" he yanked on Deidara's already bruised arm making him wince, "-ever again, understood? He is my property and you will stay away from what's mine."

He turned his harsh gaze back onto Deidara, "And you," his grip tightened around Deidara's arm making him yelp in pain, "You know the rules which I have given you." He leaned down to Deidara's ear and whispered, "Do I need to punish you again?" Deidara's eyes grew as wide as dinner plates and he shook his head vigorously. "Good."

Sasori didn't know what came over him, but after seeing Deidara in pain, and having the damned Uchiha cause it, he lost it and landed a swift punch to Itachi's jaw.

"Shit," Itachi hissed out. "How dare you lay a finger on me!" Instead of fighting Sasori right then and there, he grabbed a fistful of Deidara's long, golden hair and practically dragged Deidara away.

"Wait, Uchiha! We're not finished here! Where the fuck do you think you're going with Deidara?" Sasori was red from anger and was ready to pound the Uchiha into the dirt.

"We're going home for dinner." Itachi said much calmer than before. "Right Dei-chan?" He looked to Deidara who glanced at Sasori before looking down and nodding reluctantly.

Itachi smiled crookedly, "Good boy." He looked back at Sasori's enraged face and smirked before turning away and walking home.

On their way to Itachi's house, the raven haired teen looked down at Deidara's miserable face and smiled another sickly sweet smile. "We're going to have a nice dinner tonight aren't we Dei-chan?" Deidara glance at Itachi then averted his gaze, not uttering a word.

Itachi growled and pulled hard on Deidara's hair making him cry out in pain. "You look at me when I'm talking to you!" A loud crack echoed through the empty street they were on.

Deidara's imitate reaction was to grip his throbbing cheek in pain. His eyes watered, but he refused to cry, especially not in front of Itachi. Not again.

"I'm only going to ask one more time: we're going to have a nice dinner tonight, right Dei-chan?"

Deidara swallowed hard and nodded while muttering, "Yes, Ita-kun, un."

Itachi smiled again, "Good boy." They continued on their way to Itachi's house; Itachi smiling and Deidara dreading every step closer to that damned house of nothing but pain and agony.

Oh no poor Dei! D: Next chapter will be the dinner and what happens at the Uchiha house.

So I hope you all liked it and updates will be soon for this and Akatsuki's Easter Adventures too so look forward to that! :D

Have a beautiful day~
