"I'm that interesting, h'mm'" he said with a mock of indignation.
"Oh shut up!... and come here-" her voice lowered dangerously as she leaned into his ear, whispering "- I have something for you" She grabbed his hand and led him into her room, once they were inside she closed the door and started rummaging through a pile of things on the table. Deidara sat on the bed, as he looked down noticing several pieces of paper, doodles here and there, dragons and… was that him? He picked it up by mere instinct, it was definitively him. She was still going through her stuff and hadn't noticed what Deidara had seen, he placed the picture on the floor again and laid down, smiling dreamily.

"Here…"- she threw a large green bottle at him and stepped closer bringing two small glasses and a metallic box. Aline sat down next to him and took the bottle, pouring some on each glass, she put a beautiful slotted spoon on top of each glass and then placed a sugar cube on each spoon.
"Now check this out"

She placed her hand in front of her face leaning on to the glasses and blew through her thumb and index finger. A small shot fire shot through them and melted the sugar, which fell into the glass.

"Nice, h'mm"
"Here's to us"

Deidara smiled broadly and drank up, the green beverage burning his throat leaving a fuzzy feeling behind that stopped in the pit of his stomach, the thing he felt though had nothing to do with alcohol.

The same process repeated itself three more times during that night, through laughs, and stories shared, the whole world seemed to be asleep completely shut off away from them. The red candles that were lighting the room slowly started to melt, until they were replaced by the faint hint of sun rays that started to announce morning.

"Damn, I didn't realize it was so late already!"
"I hadn't realized it was so early, yeah. But I should probably go to bed, sleep your poison off, h'mm." He smiled suggestively at his last sentence, gesture that was mimicked as a response.
"Yeah, I should too."

Deidara sat back up from her lap and she crawled next to him.
"Nite"

He leaned in to kiss her cheek goodnight, but to her surprise they both leaned in for each other lips.

"Nite" she said blushing deeply and killing herself mentally.
"Fck fck fck, how can you be SO stupid!" she thought. He stood up with a dumbfounded look and made his way out, a cheesy grin on his face.
