Blood Is Blood Ch 3

Zabuza and Tobi walked through the door as the sun was beginning to set. Pein was there to welcome the two. He hugged his brother and grinned that all knowing grin that was only for the two of them. He looked at Tobi and smiled. "Welcome to the family, Tobi." Pein extended his hand and Tobi shook it shyly.

A screech came from out of nowhere as Tobi saw someone with long brunette hair running at full speed towards Zabuza. At a glance one would have thought they meant to attack the larger man, but when the larger male saw this, he opened his arms as the small brunette jumped into them, wrapping his legs around the other males waist and giving him a passionate kiss.

Haku he presumed. Pein took Tobi's arm and led him to the living room to be introduced to the family as they called them. He looked around the room, taking in the appearance of everyone, hoping he would be able to pick them out by the descriptions Zabuza had given him. On the couch was the shark looking guy, he presumed to be Kisame. Next to him was a black haired guy with blood red eyes, Itachi if he remembered correctly.

Sitting on the love seat was a guy with silver hair and soft pink eyes, Hidan the Jashinist and another guy with brown hair and a lot of scars, Kakuzu, their accountant and a werewolf like him. Sitting in a chair in the corner, reading a book was the man he'd been told about. Zetsu was even more interesting than he had imagined. The vampire had green hair and was actually, if you looked close, was black on one side and white on the other, making him more beautiful in Tobi's eyes.

Feeling as though he were being watched, Zetsu glanced up from his book and standing before there looking at him was a boy with black hair and brown eyes. He was beautiful, Zetsu thought. Probably one of the most beautiful boys that he had ever seen. All at once heat collected in his lower regions and he crossed his legs to properly cover his issue up. 'Wow that's one hell of a boy.' He thought to himself as he pretended to go back to his book.

Turning his attention away from the green haired vampire, before the blush on his cheeks could give away his thought; he let his attention fall on a redheaded male and a blue haired female. Sasori and Konan, he presumed them to be and congratulated himself, when Pein confirmed everyone to be who he had thought them to be.

Zabuza entered the living room a moment later with a rather flushed looking Haku in tow. "So did you meet everyone?" Zabuza asked. Tobi nodded and a pain gripped his stomach. He wrapped an arm around his stomach as if it was a security blanket and a small groan escaped his lips. Zabuza smiled and motioned for him to follow him.

They entered the kitchen and Zabuza opened the refrigerator and handed Tobi a bloody steak and sat at the table to watch him eat. He calculated when he had been bitten with how long ago he had turned and came to the conclusion that his appetite would decrease within a day or so.

Tobi finished quickly and went to the sink to rinse the plate and wash his hands. He sat back down at the table and looked at Zabuza, knowing he wanted to talk to him. How he knew he couldn't say, but he knew just the same. "How do you like it here so far?" Zabuza asked. Tobi smiled and answered. "It's definitely interesting." He looked down at the table as a blush crept up as his thoughts went to a certain Vampire with green hair.

"Okay ask." Zabuza said a grin breaking out. "Ask what?" Tobi looked up in wide eyed surprise. "About Zetsu." Zabuza said the grin turning into a smirk. Tobi opened his mouth and then closed it. How could he know that he had been thinking about Zetsu? "Okay if you won't ask, I'll tell." Zetsu is single and has a fetish for dark haired boys." Zabuza laughed at the look Tobi gave him.

Haku, who had followed and had been, standing there quietly, spoke. "Zabuza you're going to freak him out. You make it sound like Zetsu is a mass murderer with an M.O. for certain victims." Zabuza laughed again as he tightened the hold on Haku's waist. "Haku you're so dramatic." He chuckled lightly at the pout on Haku's face. "And very cute." The pout quickly turned to a blush.

"What about the red head Sasori? Where is his mate?" Tobi asked. A look of confusion on his face at the giggles that came from Haku and the chuckles that came from Zabuza. "Akasuna no Sasori, doesn't have a mate and as far as anyone's concerned, he never will. Zabuza stated.

"Why?" Toby asked interestedly. "Because Sasori don't like anyone. He's rather selfish. He believes a mate would be a nuisance and nothing but trouble." Haku answered. "Wouldn't that be lonely?" Tobi asked. "One would think so, but not Sasori." Zabuza said. Tobi sat back and thought about how he would be if he had that attitude. He knew that he wouldn't be able to handle it. If he didn't die of old age he would surly die of loneliness.

At that moment, Zetsu entered the kitchen. He walked to the sink and washed his hands, glancing over his shoulder at Tobi. Zabuza smirked and grabbed Haku's hand, leading him out of the kitchen. Zetsu walked over to Tobi and smiled. A blush crept up on Tobi's cheeks as Zetsu placed a hand on Tobi's cheek. In one fluid motion he leaned in and kissed Tobi softly on the lips. He pulled back and smiled, and then in a few graceful steps he left the kitchen.

Tobi sat wide eyed and dumbfounded. Zetsu had kissed him, and he didn't even know him. But he would soon enough, he thought as he touched his fingers to his lips and smiled. He loved it here already!
