------------------------------
The sun began to rise as a soft light gently creeped over the Akatsuki hideout. All was content. Silent and content.
Deidara felt good that morning as he slept in his bed. His nightstand held a few clay models needing to be finished. On the other side of the room, Tobi lay on his side, face to the wall, and mask on his nightstand.
Each room was shared by partners, due to cutting back cost, thus in each room, two beds were found. Sasori, however, being a puppet, did not require seep, and so, Tobi got his bed.
As a few early morning rays shone through the window, the blonde grumbled. He didn't want to wake up yet.
With that thought in mind, he got up, shut the curtains, and crawled back in bed. His eyes slammed shut and slowly he relaxed into the bed.
This peace did not last long.
Deidara was so groggy, he didn't notice the sound of paws walking in. Nor did he notice the sudden heaviness on him. And he certainly didn't notice the panting mouth inches away from his face.
However, he didn't even need to open his eyes to see this unnamed visitor, because in a matter of seconds he was being attacked in another onslaught of licks.
"GAH!" he fell out of his bed and got tangled up in the covers. Tobi snapped up from the sudden commotion and threw his mask on before facing a very agitated sempai.
"Tobi! What the hell is Dog doing in my room!?"
"I let him sleep with me!" Tobi chirped. Deidara let a quick twitch.
"No one else would let him in so I did!" he continued.
Deidara was about to scold Tobi, but rather decided against it and went on with his daily morning routine.
The masked man shrugged, got, up, and headed out to the kitchen for breakfast.
Dog was soon bored by the now empty room, and bounced off to, what was on the places you didn't want to go in the morning, Konan's bathroom.
------------------------
A very sleepy, messy blue haired kunoichi stumbled into the bathroom.
Now since each partners shared a room, they had no problem sharing a bathroom, with the exception of hair-care products. However, being the only female there, she was sure to steal the bathroom before Pein woke up.
She took a good look in the mirror. Her hair was down, no flower, she still needed to put on her makeup, and her single lip piercing sat shimmering close to her partner's multiple piercings by the sink.
She took a deep breath and splashed some water on her face. After blindly grabbing a towel, she opened her makeup drawer and pulled out a stick of blue eyeliner.
As she was carefully tracing over her left eye, a small pounding of paws could be heard. She stopped and turned.
At the doorway, Dog was looking expectant.
Now normally, Konan would be pleased to see the adorable bundle of fur, but it was morning, and Konan was not a morning person.
This was made extremely clear three months ago when Hidan kept pestering her early that morning.
Needless to say, it wasn't pretty.
She let out a grumble.
"Go away."
He didn't budge.
"What do you want?"
Dog whined.
He must need to go out. She thought.
She took a quick look at her appearance, a baggy white shirt with equally baggy navy blue pants. Suitable enough to be seen outside besides she would only be out there for five minutes.
As she started dragging her slippered feet to the backyard, she grabbed her sweatshirt realizing how cold it would be.
Of course Konan had to go out with Dog! There were wild animals, and a few stupid shinobi always thought they could catch them off guard in the morning. After a few dead ANBU, they tended to stop coming, but better safe than sorry.
Dog was ahead and scratching at the door. She groaned out a small 'I'm coming' and reluctantly opened the door.
The cold air hit her as hard as needles.
Just five minutes, she kept telling herself. Dog flounced out and did his business at a nearby tree.
Konan pushed her freezing hands in her pockets when a large gust of wind blew her hair in her face.
-thunk-
She froze and, to her growing horror,, the door had been blown shut.
And she forgot to bring out a key.
She was locked out.
So there, in the chill morning air, with eyeliner only on her left eye and still in pajamas, Konan could only think of one thing to say, which nicely summed up her predicament.
"……fuck."
-------------------
As Pein woke up that morning, he was surprised to see the bathroom door wide open, and no Konan in it.
Now to him, this wasn't normal. He knew Konan would take the bathroom before he did, and even then he still had to wait a good hour or so before she got out, depending on what mood she was in.
He brushed off the question and went on to get ready.
Must be some sort of chick thing…
Even as he was cleaning and putting in his seemingly hundreds of piercings, he noticed that his partners single lip piercing sat there, and so did her flower, and her Akatsuki jacket still hung on one of the hangers.
This was strange.
She never went anywhere without her flower or piercing.
Where on earth did she go? I swear I'll never understand women…
--------------------
Konan was panicked. Composed but still panicked.
She kept trying to turn the handle as if after some time it would magically have the door swing open.
But it didn't.
She mentally smacked herself for not remembering the key and looked around for some other way in. A thought occurred to her.
Where's Dog?
And as if listening to her thoughts she heard a 'Bark!'
She turned to the source of the sound. Dog sat there, tail wagging, inside the house.
She could only stare through the window Dog was at.
She noticed the small makeshift doggy door that Kisame had so graciously 'shaved' through the wall last night. And yet, Dog still made her go outside with him, regardless of whatever wild animals or thickheaded shinobi there were. He made her go out. The one member that would kill someone for looking at her wrong in the morning.
And she was locked out.
That dog is so dead.
She tried to fit herself through the doggy door, only to be licked in the face by Dog as soon as she got her head in. She recoiled and wiped her face off, her eyeliner smearing.
She tried again, pushing Dog away this time, but she wouldn't fit.
Muttering a few curses and brushing off the wood chips that now stuck to her sweatshirt, she looked in the window to see if anyone was there. No one.
Shit.
But being the intelligent kunoichi she was, she got an idea. Out of the sleeve of her sweatshirt came a piece of paper, which folded itself into a butterfly.
The origami butterfly few into the doggy door in hopes of catching one of the other members attention. This plan was flawless.
Or so it seemed.
The minute Dog saw the butterfly, he jumped up, grabbed it in his mouth, and proceeded nibbling on it. Konan sent another, and once again, Dog caught it like a chew toy.
She tried sending a swarm, but Dog had chewed up all of them.
She stopped, not wanting to waste any more paper in case of an attack and, once she was done giving every death glare she knew to the poor pup, ran off to find another door.
