Chapter 7: Leader-sama Say What!?

Itachi was on his way to Deidara's room when he saw Tobi.

"Hey Itachi-san!!!!"Tobi yelled running over to the Sharingan user. Itachi sighed heavily before Tobi finally reached him.

"Tobi can you tell Deidara-san that Leader-sama wants to see him..."Itachi said. He waited for Tobi to nod enthusiastically like he usually did. This time he didn't. Itachi's alertness kicked up a notch, if that was possible...

(you ppl kno Itachi nevers lets his guard down anymore...)

"It's about that Ino girl isn't it?!"Tobi asked, his voice grew dark and evil. Fear almost crept into Itachi. Itachi backed up a little, before clearing his voice and said.

"I don't know, Leader-sama just said to tell Deidara he wants to see him..."Itachi said, backing up a little more.

"Ino-chan is in for a rude awakening. I must take matters into my own hands..."Tobi muttered very quietly, but not so quietly that Itachi still heard him.

"Well...I just be going now..."Itachi said, starting to back away from Tobi. Tobi's demeanor just suddenly perked up and he waved very enthustically to the freaked out Uchiha.

"Bye Itachi-san!!!"

'I should watch out for him...'Itachi thought heading back to the living room to see if Konan and Ino had shown up yet. Leader-sama said they should been home soon. He was surprised to turn the corner and see them in the living room already.

"Konnichiwa, Itachi-san."Ino and Konan both greeted. He offered a small nod and sat at the stool at the kitchen island. They sat across from him. Ino looked at him intensely as if she was trying to figure him out.

'I wonder What hair product he uses....his hair looks so soft and lucious.'Ino thought.

Itachi just stared back at Ino. Konan looked at both and pulled a sucker out of her robe. She sucked on it trying to figure out What the two were thinking, it seemed they were thinking separate things but on the same concept.

"Itachi-san, What shampoo do you use?"Ino asked.

Itachi looked up in thought before answering,"I actually use Silk Elements."

Konan looked up in surprise, she didn't even know Itachi knew the name of the stuff he used most of the times. She thought he justed used them to use them.

"I do too!"Ino smiled. Itachi nodded and rested his head on his shoulders.

All 3 people turned their attention to the door when Tobi skipped in. He looked at Ino and yelled.

"Ino-chan!!! Leader-sama wants Deidara-sempai to talk to you!! So cmon!!"

Ino shrugged before shrugging her shoulders and getting up. She saw something flash in Itachi's eyes before it disappeared.

"What does he to talk to me about?"Ino asked.

He shrugged and said,"Deidara-sempai didn't just said to get you. Now cmon!!"

He grabbed Ino by her forearm and nearly dragged her to Deidara's door. Tobi pushed her to it and opened the door for her.

'Maybe sempai will start hating,'He thought as Ino blushed ferciously when she saw Deidara wrapped up in only a towel. He slightly looked flustered but it disappeared after a second.

Leader-sama indeed did talk to Deidara so Deidara knew What was coming up next.

"Gomen,"Ino said, her blush intensifying. Tobi seemed to be enjoying this....Ino noticed Deidara wearing only a towel didn't hae any effect on Tobi. 'I guess this was normal to him.'Ino thought.

"It's okay. Come in, Leader-sama wanted me to talk to you, yeah."Deidara smirked, he noticed Ino's eyes were on his abs. He liked that!!! 'Winning her over already, who knew Tobi's mistake would be helpful to him.'Deidara thought.

Ino just could help it, she couldn't take her eyes off of his abs...they were sooo hawt!!!!

She quickly walked over to the window seat and turned her attention outside to the lone Sakura tree. She listened as Deidara got dress.

"All done, un, you can look now..."Deidara said, before Ino turned around. He had on his usual blue midriff with a mess shirt under it.

"So What did you want to tell me?"Ino asked, crossing her arms.

"Look long story shot, Leader-sama decided for you to join us. We need another member, and you're capable of being one. You'd be of need to us, yeah,"Deidara answered. Ino's eyes widened in shock first, then narrowed in anger.

"What!? I don't wanna be here!!! I wanna go home!!!!"Ino shouted, clenching her fist in anger. Deidara's head dropped in disappointment, he wanted Ino to stay with him, to be his.

"You have no choice."A voice came from the doorway. Both the shinobi and kunoichi looked up to see Pein standing in the doorway. Neither had sensed him, both were at ease. They don't know why, but they felt comfortable around eachother.

"What do ya mean I have no choice. There is always a choice in something."Ino said, recalling What Ibiki taught her. You always have a choice, no matter the situation.

"Simple, you have no choice. You're joining whether you like it or not. I could use another member."Pein said simply, before adding,"That's the uniform you are to wear but I don't have a ring for you yet."

"Doesn't matter coz I don't want any part of this..."Ino said, closing her eyes and crossing her arms in the typical stubborn fashion.

"Doesn't matter if you don't want to coz you are...anyway where did you get that necklace?"Pein asked, finally noticing the glint of it on her neck.

"Some lady at the flower shop, said it was calling out to me."Ino answered, fingering it.

Pein shook his head and left.

"Why don't you wanna stay, un?"Deidara asked, speaking up.

Ino turned around towards him and said,"I just wanna go home and see my friends and family. Something important is coming up in a few days."

"Oh, yeah."Deidara sighed.

(i have Ino playing hard to get...lol tough girl act when she really likes Deidara somehWhat but can't have that coming out. XD)

"Well..I'll be going now..."Ino said, waving and leaving his room. Deidara sighed and thought....'Well I'll have to make her swoon head over heels for me....and I've got the perfect plan!' He smirked with that.
