Hey all of my amazingly lovely readers! Sorry that this chapter is so short! But not sorry enough to make the next chapter long either ^-^' But hopefully I can get the other chapter updated today too! Sooo two short chapters in one day? Sounds good to me! Enjoy~

'Deidara…' Sasori shook his head and ran home as fast as he could. He knew he had to do something, and fast.

"Mother, I'm home!" Itachi shouted to his mother, Mikoto, while taking off his shoes at the door. Deidara doing the same, then following Itachi into the living room.

"Hello Itachi, dear! Welcome home." Mikoto smiled sweetly at Itachi before glancing over his shoulder to Deidara and flashing the same smile to him. "Hello Deidara, sweetie. How have you been doing?"

Deidara smiled halfheartedly at her and muttered, "I've been better, un." Before being escorted out by Itachi harshly grabbing his wrist and pulling him down the hall to his room.

Itachi opened his bedroom door and shoved Deidara inside before closing and locking the door behind him. He glared daggers at the smaller blond with hate filled onyx eyes.

"Deidara," Itachi stated coldly, "Do you remember my rules for you?"

Deidara lifted his head just enough to catch a glimpse of Itachi's intense glare. He abruptly looked down to his hands resting in his lap and nodded.

"I can't hear you!" Itachi snapped

"Yes Ita-kun. I remember the rules, un."

"So you deliberately disobeyed me then?"

Deidara shook his head, "No, Ita-kun." He continued to look down at his hands just wishing he could go somewhere, ANYWHERE but there.

Itachi slowly stepped closer to the blond and kneeled down in front of him before firmly gripping Deidara's chin, jerking upwards so their eyes met. Itachi leaned in and whispered into the younger teen's ear, "Are you lying to me, Dei-chan." Itachi's voice was so calm it was scary.

Deidara shook his head again, "No, Ita-kun, un."

Itachi growled before slapping Deidara as hard as he could, sending Deidara tumbling across the floor.

Deidara gasped in both surprise and pain. He gripped his heated cheek and felt tears well up in his eyes threatening to spill out at any second.

Itachi grabbed a fistful of golden hair and yanked, hard. Deidara cried out in pain again and a few tears slipped out and trickle down his heated cheeks.

Itachi looked at Deidara distastefully before throwing him to the ground. "What do you think you're crying about, Dei-chan?" He spat the last word.

Deidara tried to blink away his tears in vain. They wouldn't stop coming and Deidara knew from past experience that Itachi would give him something to cry about if he didn't pull himself together, quickly.

"Maybe I should punish you again. Would that help you to learn my rules I've set for you, Dei-chan?" Itachi advanced toward Deidara and his eyes widened in fear. He knew how Itachi liked to 'punish' him and he knew Itachi's mother would never hear or find out what had been happening.

Deidara violently shook his head, "No! Please don't Itachi! Please, un!" Deidara pleaded in hopes of Itachi changing his mind.

Itachi looked up in fake thought before smiling another crooked smile. "No. I don't think I will stop. You WILL be punished for your disrespect and bad behavior." Itachi laughed cruelly at Deidara's horrified and helpless look.

By now Deidara was sobbing and pleading with Itachi not to do it. But it was too late.

Ring…

"Common dammit, pick up!"

Ring…

"Pein, please pick up!"

Ring…

"Shit!"

Rin-… "Hello?"

"Thank Kami you answered! I need your help with something."

"Oh really? And what might that be?"

"Deidara's being abused by Itachi and I need your help to stop him."

There was a long pause on the other end. "…when did you find out?"

"YOU KNEW?!"

Another pause. "…yeah. For a while actually."

"How the fuck-?!"

"Konan." Pein took a deep breath, "Deidara and Konan are good friends, remember? Well, they were hanging out at the park one day and Konan noticed a bruise on his arm. It was a really dark purple bruise, she said it looked like it hurt. She also noticed the way he winced or hissed when he sat down, so she asked him what happened and…"

Sasori almost couldn't take the silence anymore and shouted into the phone, "WHAT?! HOW THE FUCK DID IT HAPPEN?!"

Pein took a shaky breath and answered, "Sasori…Itachi rapped Deidara."

Sasori dropped the phone and ran as fast as he could to the Uchiha house praying to every magical deity out there that he wasn't too late.

See? Super short! It wasn't even 1,000 words! :O But the next chapter is on its way so bare with me! :D

Oh noes poor Dei! And Pein knew but didn't tell Sassy!
