Hey there! There will be a chapter immediately after this one. I wanted to keep each chapter for different members. Deidara and all the guys who have a short chapter will have another one to make up for it.

Disclaimer: I don't and never will own Naruto.


After school, Sakura thought back to yesterday with Deidara and blushed.

"No, no, no, I have to think about something else!"

"Sakura, what are you talking about?"

"Kakuzu! Perfect timing, let's go shopping!" She needed some sort of distraction.

Kakuzu paused and asked:

"You want to go shopping with me?"

"You're the best bargainer I know! Pleaaaassee?" she replied, puppy eyed.

Kakuzu couldn't say no.

"Alright, let's go."

"Yay!"


They walked to the nearest mall.

Sakura immediately went into a fashion shop, finding a Chinese dress with a slit on each side. It was red with white and pink cherry blossoms twirling around it.

"How much is this?" she asked.

"100$" replied the shop keeper.

"Ack! So expensive!" her Inner said.

"45$" said Kakuzu.

"80$" he answered, used to bargainers asking for a lower price.

"50$"

"75$"

"No, 50$ and that's final." glared Kakuzu.

"65$" dared the shop keeper.

Kakuzu shook his head, signaling to Sakura to leave. Just as they were exiting the shop:

"Okay 50$!"

Kakuzu smirked.

As they really left, Sakura exclaimed:

"Wow Kakuzu! Thank you, I'm so glad you came."

"No problem, cherry blossom."

"Come on, next store!"

They walked around some more, buying things here and there.

After a while, Sakura, tired, asked to go home. Kakuzu nodded, escorting her home.

"Thanks Kakuzu. I had a lot of fun!"

"I enjoyed it too." He slightly grinned.

"I'll see you tomorrow then."

"Wait, I have something for you."

"Huh?"

Kakuzu pulled out a bracelet.

"Did you make this?" asked Sakura, shocked.

"Yeah. I have thread, so why not, since it's free."

"Thank you so much!"

"You say thanks too much."

She smiled.
