Me: Well that was a relatively quick update, thanks to their inspiration~
Kate: Me?
Me: Nope!
Juliana: Me?
Me: Nope!
Juliana and Kate: THEN WHO?
Me: The Cabbage Man
Cabbage Man: MY CABBAGES
Me: Yes, yes they are your cabbages. Enjoy~
Well let's just say the night ended on an awkward note. But you figured that right? After reading the last chapter, I mean. Oh yeah, the fourth wall. Forgot about that thing.
We puled names out of a hat. Hidan went with Kakuzu, but the latter had ripped off the Jashinists head. Either way, Juliana was freaking out. Sasori went with Tobi, though when we opened the door, Sasori was strangling the other one.
"Amanda and…" Kate pulled out my name and then continued to pull out another one, "Deidara."
My face heated up bright red and I avoided looking at him, in fear he'd see my flushed face.
"Now get in the closet!" Juliana jerked my arm toward the closet, which made me trip over myself.
"Watch out, un," Deidara said as he caught me before I fell. Damn his shinobi reflexes.
I muttered a thank you and crawled into the corner of the closet where I planned to spent the entire 7 minutes.
"What's the point of this game, yeah?" the bomber asked and I laughed. For some odd reason, I thought they had 7 minutes in heaven in the Narutoverse. Guess not.
Deidara huffed and I heard him slide down the wall to sit. I blushed. Even though we were both in opposite corners, my closet was so tiny, we were sitting next to each other.
"Well the point is to embarrass people beyond belief," I joked, as that was exactly how I was feeling.
"So it's working," he noticed. Damn him. He must've seen my blushing and general uncomfortableness.
"Shut up," I grumbled.
"Make me."
Only now did I realize our faces were barely an inch apart. Just as we both leaned in, a loud banging noise on the door interrupted us. Our lips touched momentarily before…
"WRAP IT UP AND PUT YOUR CLOTHES ON!" Came the very loud yell of Juliana.
"I'll fucking kill you!" I threatened.
"Le ze loooooovers be~" Kate san in a French accent that made my ears bleed. That's when I opened the door up.
"Amanda, your shirt's on backwards," Kisame commented. I checked to see if he was right. I did this by basically looking down my shirt. Nope. He was wrong. My tag was still in the back.
"Made you look," the shark grinned, so I glared at him.
"I'll go get the cold water," I snarled.
"Calm down, hm," Deidara patted the top of my head, which struck me as odd, as he was 3 inches shorter than me.
"Alright, next two!" I dug my hand into Kate's panda hat and retrieved a name,
"Itachi and…." I could see Kate biting her lip in anticipation. When I pulled out the name, it read 'Zetsu'. Lucky for my friend, I said, "Kate."
"Hn," the Uchiha said as he went into the closet. Kate gave me the biggest grin I'd ever seen. She better love me for this.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Kate walked into the closet, feeling like the happiest girl in the world. She had moments when she appreciated Amanda, when she wasn't a total raving mad violent nagging bitch. But Kate was the same way, she admitted.
To break the awkward silence, she asked, "So, what do you want to talk about?"
"Anything is fine," he replied. Well the Uchiha was certainly a conversationalist.
"How about them cows? They're mooing very loud today," she said the first thing that popped into her mind. This rarely led to good things.
"And how would you know this?" Itachi teased, somewhat enjoying the moment he had with the girl. She was slightly random, and slightly odd, but it was a good random, and a good odd.
"I'm the fucking Cow Yeller, 'cause I can't stand whispering," she whispered (ironically), proudly, before bursting out laughing, "I'm such a dork."
"A cute on though," Itachi said without really thinking. This was something he rarely did, so he felt weird after the words had come out.
"I, uh, thanks. You're pretty damn adorable yourself," Kate replied awkwardly, scratching the back of her head.
"I'm adorable?" Itachi questioned.
"So adorable I'm gonna puke up rainbows and glitter!" She laughed as he inched away, smiling very lightly.
"Please don't" he responded, finding slight amusement in playing with the brunette's hair.
Kate blushed a bit, "Itachi? Do you find the back of my head interesting?"
"No, just the hair that's on top of it," he rested his head on top of hers.
"You have pretty gorgeous hair too, well for a boy I mean. Actually, anybody would kill to have those locks!" she played with his ponytail, eventually beginning to braid it, laughing.
"I hope nobody would actually try killing me for it," Itachi continued to play with the choppy brown pieces of hair.
"Well you'd kill them first, being the ultimately kickass shinobi you are!" Kate smiled, now holding onto Itachi's arm.
He tilted her head up ever so slightly and gave Kate a quick kiss on the nose, "Hn."
"What the hell does that even mean?" she said, trying to distract him from the bright red blush on her face.
"ALRIGHT SUGARS! TIME TO GET OUT~" Amanda screamed, her voice cracking a bit.
"Voice crack…" Kate heard Juliana laugh from the other side.
Shaking her head, she stood up, holding hands with the Uchiha.
Once out of the closet, Amanda started clapping, "Aww, how cute."
"Hey Amanda?" Kate pursed her lips.
"Yeah?"
"You suck."
"10TH TIME TODAY!" Amanda stuck her tongue out at her friend.
Afterwards, Konan and Zetsu were forced into a closet together. Then came the next draw, "Juliana and Pein!"
Pein's eyes looked over to the Lebanese girl, who was trying her hardest not to express her growing excitement.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"Well this is awkward," Juliana commented as she somehow managed to fall inside the tiny closet. A bucket of gloves toppled on top of her, along with a few coat hangers.
"Here," Pein held out his hand, pulling her up. He didn't really know why he was helping her out, but it just felt right.
She smiled, revealing her bright white teeth, "Gracias!"
"What?" he asked, confused by this new word.
"It means 'thanks' in Spanish," she explained in a 'duh' voice.
"What's Spanish?" he asked, no less confused in this situation.
"Let's just say it's one fucking annoying foreign language," Juliana sighed, and started taking the gloves and coat hangers off of herself.
Pein helped her a bit.
"I have an idea!" Juliana exclaimed and began collecting hangers, "Take out your earrings."
"Why?" Pein asked, cautiously, his hands drifting to said earrings.
"Please~?" she begged. He sighed and began taking them out, placing them into the pocket of his jeans.
Just as one ear was earring-free, Juliana started to push the tiny hangers through.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" he grumbled.
She shrugged, continuing her work, "I've always wanted to try this."
"Any point to it?" the Akatsuki leader asked, still taking out the remainder of his piercings.
"No, but does there have to be?" she wondered aloud as she shoved another hanger through a hole in his ear.
"Well yes, there does," Pein responded stoicly.
"Not in this world, poochyena," she pinched the edge of his cheek, while he remained unamused.
"Is poochyena another Spanish word?" he asked, slightly amused by the whole situation.
"Nope, it's Pokemon!" she exclaimed, "I have to force you to watch it sometime. It was my favorite cartoon growing up. I watched at least 4 episodes a day, and see how well I turned out?"
Pein looked at her skeptically. She wasn't a bad person, he knew that from the moment he saw her. She was just…..innocent. Well, at least she appeared that way at first. Then when he heard her, Kate, and Amanda discussing male genitalia, he knew better. But still, their was a cute naivety to her.
"Time's almost up~" Kate started drumming on the door.
"THANKS CHILD!" Juliana yelled, banging her side of the door.
Amanda commented from the other side, "Someone likes it rough."
Juliana's face heated up as she fumbled to try to find the doorknob. She was now on a mission to kill her best friends. A mission that she would succeed.
"Here," Pein held her hand and found the doorknob.
She opened the door, and with a running start, tackled Amanda.
"GET OFF!" her friend yelled.
"NEVER!" Juliana replied, before getting put into a headlock by Amanda.
"Don't tackle me again," the light brunette narrowed her eyes.
Juliana held her hands up as a sign of peace, "No promises, sweetie."
"Whatever," Amanda let her go, but obviously still pissed, "Who wants dinner?"
Kate stood on the couch she was previously cracking up on and raised her hand, "I do."
"You always do," her friend laughed.
"Yup! Eating like a dude," Kate smirked and flopped back onto the couch.
"How about….uh….any ideas?" Amanda looked to Juliana for help.
"Ice cream!" she suggested.
Amanda shut that idea down, "Another."
"Grilled peanut butter sandwiches," Kate gave her own thumbs up, which was the unofficial seal of approval for food.
"That's disgusting."
"How about some sort of noodles?" Konan said, already going through the pantry and freezer.
"Sounds fine by me!" Amanda agreed, pulling out some of the pastas that were hidden in the deep crevices of the pantry, "There's only macaroni, though."
"Got any cheese sauce?" Kate asked, despite the fact she was looking into the fridge.
Juliana moved her seat to the counter that was right in front of the fridge and nonchalantly pushed her friend in.
"FUCK YOU!" Kate screamed, though you could only see her butt sticking out of the fridge, "Oh look, found the cheese sauce."
Deidara shook his head, "You're all insane, un."
"Yeah but that's why you love us!" Amanda said without really thinking. She covered her mouth, "Never mind. We're insane. And I didn't say that."
"Say what?" the bomber asked, still confused.
"Exactly," Sasori responded for Amanda, as he had heard the whole conversation, unlike the two participants in it.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The rest of the night was fairly uneventful. We had mac n cheese, which Kakuzu oddly liked. I though he would eat….you know…..not tasty things. All of us ended up watching Spiderman, throughout which Juliana and I were yelling at the television. Kate was sitting next to Itachi, and I was really happy for her. They weren't doing anything, but I have a feeling something happened in the closet she didn't tell me about...
"Night guys!" I yawned as I left the living room, following the end of the movie.
"Me too," most of the room said in unison. The night ended on a peaceful night for the second day of this mayhem.
The remainder of the week, was fairly normal, you know for somebody with 10 criminals in their house. The next interesting thing that happened, came the day school returned.
What is it you ask? Well, you'll just have to read the next chapter to find out! Oh wait, fourth wall again. I have to remember that.
Me: I do need to remember the fourth wall *facepalm*
Juliana: Idiot~
Kate: REVIEW PEOPLE, OR I'LL SIC MY DOG ON YOU!
Me: Zoey isn't that scary. She's my little Zoe-Bear!
Juliana: Not even going to ask.
Me: Good thinking.
