Blood Is Blood Ch 9
It was now Wednesday at school. Haku and Deidara were sitting in study hall and talking about likes and dislikes. Sasori had given Deidara the slip the passed couple of days. All Deidara could do was pretend like he didn't care. Which was a lie. He did care, ever since Sasori had kissed him and well tried to eat his face? Or whatever the hell it was he had tried to do. It bothered him regardless. He was even more pissed that he cared at all.
This guy had been a pain in the ass for weeks. All Deidara had wanted was to keep going on in his normal yet drably dull life. Okay so Sasori had added some excitement. But that didn't mean that Deidara cared for him at all. Or maybe he did and that's what was pissing him off. He cared and he wanted to see that insufferable red head. He wanted to see him badly. Haku waved a hand in front of Deidara's face to get his attention.
Deidara looked up as if he had just come out of a trance and laughed. Haku smiled back and asked. "Who are you thinking about?" Cocking his head to the side as if he really didn't know. "No one, un." Deidara said as a heat began to creep up his neck to his cheeks. Haku smiled knowingly and nodded. "I understand." He said as he thought about his own lover. A smile played at his lips as he was now the one to zone out. "Who are you thinking about, un" Deidara asked teasingly.
"My boyfriend." Haku said shyly. Deidara's eyes widened a fraction. "You have a boyfriend, un?" He asked in astonishment. Haku nodded sheepishly. "Wow, un. What's he like" Deidara asked now curious as to what kind of guy Haku could be into too. The rest of the hour was spent talking about Zabuza and Haku's relationship. Meanwhile Sasori was leaving the mansion, to go look for a meal considering that he had decided to play with the blonde instead of kill him immediately.
Not to mention that he was slowly and steadily falling for him. He had realized it the night he had almost lost control with him. Once he had gotten home he realized what a big mistake he had made and had laid awake, feeling guilty. Ugh. Why did this have to happen He was Sasori not a sniveling little high school boy! He was a vampire and well known for his preference to be alone. Now all of that changed in just a few weeks. He walked across the grounds and shook his head to clear it. Dammit he had a victim to kill.
Deidara and Haku made it to science just as the bell rang. They had been too caught up in conversation to realize that the bell was about to ring. They slid into their seats and sighed in relief when the teacher was a couple minutes late. The class went on with the students all pairing up for an experiment. Haku and Deidara carefully mixing the vials to perfection. The experiment went off without a hitch with the teacher and the kids congratulating Haku and Deidara for a job well done.
Sasori chased the girl further down the ally she had great stamina. He took her for a health freak that ran all the time to stay in shape. She ran further down the ally and turned the corner and right into a dead end. She turned around and put her back to the wall. Her eyes were wide but no sound escaped her. She looked around, desperately looking for something to arm herself with. As luck would have it there were pieces of steel pipe on the ground with a pile of trash. She quickly picked up one of the pipes as Sasori moved towards her with a sadistic smirk in place.
He moved at her quickly as she began to swing the pipe. He grabbed it easily stopping it from hitting him and yanked the pipe forward affectively dragging her towards him even more. She gasped slightly at the jerking motion and connected with his chest. He wrapped his hand in her hair and locked his fingers in the soft brown curls to stop any struggle. He yanked her head to the side and moved to her neck quickly. He's not quite sure how it happened but it did. She reared back and smashed her forehead into his.
Something he hadn't been anticipating. She easily managed to make him let go as he grabbed his now aching head. She took that opportunity to slip around him and grab another of the pipes off the ground. Swinging it with everything she had, she connected with his ribs, making him double over in pain. She dropped the pipe and ran as fast as she could manage out of the ally way. A very dazed and pissed off Sasori followed suit. He ran out of the ally and was surprised to find that she had managed some distance.
He smiled the game of cat and mouse was on. She ran faster and took a detour through the park. She kept looking back over her shoulder as she ran. Sasori was grateful that the park was empty today. Of course it looked as though it might rain at any moment, and who wants to get caught In a downpour? She ran as far as she could go through the park and to a small building that housed the parks sprinkler system controls. She made a mad dash and ran into the building and sat down trying to control her breathing.
The bell rang and school was out finally. Haku gathered up his books and followed Deidara out the door. They stopped at their lockers trying to decide which books they needed and said their goodbyes. Haku walked out and made a right as Deidara walked straight across the street. He walked towards his apartment building when it dawned on him that he needed to go to the store to get more ramen. He made a right down a side street and headed towards the park. He was just about to pass the park when he noticed something odd and familiar at the same time.
Sasori was standing by the parks only building looking at the door as if he expected something to run out of it. Deidara was too far away for him to hear if he yelled so he walked closer. Sasori grabbed the door and opened it. He stepped in and disappeared from Deidara's view. Deidara jogged closer to the building and slowed just before reaching it. Sasori smirked down at the brown haired girl who again said nothing but glared up at him in contempt. That was until Sasori bared his fangs and sunk them into her neck.
Deidara jumped as a scream tore from the building. His eyes widened in terror of what might be going on in there. He made a mad dash towards the door and gripped the handle, yanking it open in one swift motion. Time stood still as he became frozen in place, eyes wide mouth dry and a fear that gripped him tightly. He could see Sasori looking at him with a shocked look on his face, but it was too late to do anything now. Deidara blinked as reality began to set in.
What he was seeing wasn't supposed to be real. He'd heard about monsters and demons and vampires in books and ghost stories. But not in reality. Sasori didn't have fangs and Sasori wasn't gripping an unconscious woman in his arms with blood all over her neck and his mouth. This was a nightmare and he just needed to wake up from it is all. He blinked again as if in a trance. Sasori dropped the girl on the floor and swiped his hand across his mouth effectively ridding his lips of the woman's blood.
He stepped out of the building and grabbed Deidara's shoulders, shaking him slightly. Deidara only blinked again as his eyes remained glued to the door of the building. Sasori shook him again once more trying to bring him back to reality. Deidara began to come around as he looked Sasori in the face. All at once his knees gave out and his world went black. He slumped in Sasori's hold and Sasori picked him up and carried him to his apartment as quickly as possible.
Deidara opened his eyes to see Sasori sitting on the floor against the wall staring at nothing in particular. Deidara sat up and reality flooded in once more. He had seen Sasori, fangs bared, and the woman's neck torn open as blood flowed from her open wounds. He had seen something that shouldn't even exist but did just the same. He stared at Sasori for what seemed like ages only to realize it was only a minute or two. He was about to jump up and run as the reality of the situation crowded his already full mind.
But as he looked at Sasori all he could see was sadness. Why, he didn't know but it compelled him to go over and sit on the floor with the red headed vampire who could easily rip his throat out if he really wanted. And for some reason he didn't care. All he cared about was making that look disappear. "Sasori, why didn't you tell me what you were, un?" Deidara asked softly. "You would have ran away and never spoke to me again." Sasori said quietly not making eye contact with him.
"I didn't though, un. I stayed and even came over here to talk to you, un." Deidara said shrugging matter of factly. "Only because you pity me." Sasori said as he closed his eyes. Deidara frowned and leaned closer to Sasori's face. He couldn't say why he did it other than he felt he needed too. He closed the space and kissed Sasori's lips lightly. Sasori tensed but didn't move away. He liked it but was scared to give in to it for the fear he would lose control with Deidara again.
Deidara pulled away and asked calmly and softly. "Do you not like me anymore, now that I know what you are, un?" Looking into Sasori's face for the answers. Sasori looked at Deidara, a questioning look on his face. "How could you even want me too, knowing what I am?" Deidara bowed his head as if in shame. When he looked up into Sasori's face again, tears were evident in his eyes. "I don't know, un. I just don't care what you are. I like you and I want you to like me too, un." He said feeling depressed.
He hugged his knees to his chest and cried into his knees. Sasori rolled his eyes a little annoyed at how easily human's can break. He grabbed Deidara and pulled him into his lap, holding him against his chest as he stroked the long blonde silky locks. "Dei, you don't know what you are asking. I am a vampire and you are a human. If we were together, I would have to change you. You would have to be like me." Sasori said calmly.
Deidara looked up into Sasori's eyes and nodded. "I know, un. Maybe it's what's supposed to happen, un. I don't feel like I belong here in the mortal world, un." Deidara said sadly. He laid his head back on Sasori's shoulder and closed his eyes. If Sasori wanted him to be like him then he would do it. Because now he knew that he was in love with Sasori. He had known Sasori was different but not this different. But then whoever said different was bad?
Sasori sighed and hugged Deidara to him. "You would have to live off of human blood Deidara and I saw the way you looked at me when I took the girl's blood." Sasori said now feeling guilty somewhat. Deidara nodded not opening his eyes. "I was just shocked, un. But I know why you do it. To live, un. You have too, it's not your fault, un." Deidara said as a yawn took hold of him. Sasori sighed shaking his head. This blonde had him hook, line, and sinker.
Just as Deidara began to drift off in Sasori's lap, he mumbled, "How old are you, un?" Sasori chuckled and said "two hundred and twenty two." Deidara gasped slightly and then settled down slowly. "Hm, goodnight, Danna, un." He said sleepily. 'Danna? Where the hell did that come from?' He thought as he looked at the now sleeping blonde in his lap. He would have to ask him later. He picked him up and carried him back to the mattress. He laid him carefully on it and slowly headed for the door. Now to go finish his meal, that he knew would still be there and then come back here and spend the night with his now future mate.
