Feline and Fox

By: Silverwolf

Deidara looks surprised to see Kimimaro make an appearance from a car far more expensive than the platinum blonde could ever own. The platinum teen looks towards Deidara, "Pack up, you said you'd paint it... that's your ride." Deidara blinks and looks at Konan, "want to travel with, yeah." The azure haired female nods. She grabs Itachi along with her steps towards the car, "in case we need a good lawyer." Deidara laughs loudly.

Itachi blinks as Konan pulls him along with her. Deidara throws a bag towards the female. Konan grins, "you're going to let me help?" The blonde nods. Itachi shakes his head, "I have this feeling I'm in for a headache." The trio watch as someone stands silently as if waiting on them. Deidara blinks, "I get a freaking driver, yeah." Konan giggles. "Come on Dei, let's go all ready." Konan pulls Itachi into the car with her. Deidara shakes his head as the Mercedes pulls away.

Deidara laughs as Konan sits playing with every button she can find. Itachi shakes his head at a comment of how the car reminds the pair he's with of minature limosine. Konan looks at Deidara, "just think we're about to paint on someone's else fancy walls." Deidara laughs loudly, "hellz yeah!" The pair seem giddy as the car stops in front of Heaven's Curse.

Itachi shakes his head lightly as Konan pulls him from the car. The driver is certain to make sure he opens the door for the trio. Deidara grins as he hears the lyrics of a band called Sick Puppies. Konan grins a bit, "someone has decent taste in music." Konan drags the older Uchiha along as the driver of the car opens the door for the group carrying their supplies. "The young master will be with you in moments."

Konan is the first to spot the blonde sitting in the restaurant doorway. The driver briefly bows to the cobalt eyed blonde. The response he receives is a wide grin. Konan smiles, "you haven't changed much Naruto."

The female watches as Naruto disappears from view. The blonde appears at a raven male's side. Sasuke smirks slightly, "well it seems you've arrived just fine." Deidara and Konan glance around the restaurant in awe. Sasuke looks towards Deidara, "the agreement you've chosen is to split the money in half with your female companion, correct?" Deidara nods lightly, "I said that, yeah." Konan looks towards the magazine that eded up brought along with her and then back at the raven. "You're..."

"I am Sasuke Uchiha. Now if you don't mind I don't have time to waste." Sasuke motions for the trio to follow him. Deidara looks at Konan, "I thought the owner was arranging this, yeah." Sasuke glances towards Deidara, "I am the owner, don't believe that statement ask Itachi. Oh, and, hello brother." Itachi's response to Sasuke is a silent nod. Konan watches as Sasuke point towards a far wall. "You can paint whatever comes to mind, however; do remember this is a business. The only reason any idea wasn't all ready chosen is because my fox stated that artists need to follow their own style." Konan look towards Naruto briefly. Deidara blinks a moment, "so I can just paint..." Sasuke looks towards the long haired blonde, "paint can always be covered by more paint." Deidara narrows his eyes.

Sasuke looks at the pair, "is there anything that needs to be moved farther away?" Konan shakes her head. Sasuke nods lightly, "well then I'll leave yu both to paint." Onyx eyes go towards Itachi, "did you come along for a social call?" Itachi shoves his hands in his pockets, "not exactly. Though I do have something to say. Despite the fact I've been quite busy. I do love you Sasuke, after all you are my younger brother." Sasuke gives half a smirk, "nice to know you still care Itachi. To answer your question I'm doing well. Along with the fact I'm actually happy in my niche of life currently." Itachi nods slightly.

Naruto remains watching the Deidara and Konan as a charcoal pencil goes along the wall lightly. Konan grins a bit as she watches the blonde tilts his head, "you're curious about what we're about to pain then?" Naruto nods slightly. Konan smirks and then shows the blonde a piece of paper tucked into the magazine she had with her. The picture shows a pair of animals in the miiddle of a bakery basket. One a sable feline, the other a small fox. Deidara makes a face, "I shouldn't have let you pick what I'm drawing, yeah." Konan laughs a bit, "oh come on Dei, you know you have no idea of what you could do for a mural." Deidara wrinkles his nose, "and you had to pick that of everything I've ever drawn, yeah." Naruto laughs a bit. Crystal eyes narrow at cobalt eyes. "What's funny, yeah." Naruto tilts his head giggling a bit, "the way you end a sentence." Deidara makes a face as he continues drawing. "why don't you try your knees far away from me." Naruto narrows a pair of cobalt eyes, "you're either a girlish looking guy, or a guyish sounding girl. I haven't decided which yet."

Konan grabs Deidara as the long haired blonde starts towards Naruto. The blonde tilts his head slightly as Konan places herself between Deidara and Naruto to does her best to get Deidara to return to drawing the mural instead of attacking Naruto.

The blonde continues watching as Deidara returns to drawing. Konan sighs lightly, "Dei, you have to draw it, I'm just along to paint remember." Deidara nods lightly, "fine, hm." Naruto watches as the azure haired female stands folding a candy wrapper while watching the honey blonde. Cobalt eyes go slightly wide as Naruto sees the flower Konan is slowly creating, "Konan?"

The female turns with a smirk, "I'm happy to see you're finally safe Naruto. I'm even happier to see you're so loved. I noticed when he looked at you." The blonde looks at Konan, "it's been a long time." Konan nods, "it certainly has."

Naruto goes to Sasuke as the raven comes back into sight. The blonde puts his arms around the raven's neck as Sasuke kisses him. Konan smirks, "I'm happy he's loved." Sasuke looks at the female, "you know my fox?" Sasuke doesn't release his arm from around Naruto's waist as the blonde turns to look towards Konan. "We've crossed paths before. I guess you could say we know each other."

Naruto places an arm back around Sasuke's neck as the raven kisses the side of the blonde's neck. Naruto points towards Deidara with a pouting look, "Sasu, that one was mean to me." Onyx eyes narrow towards Deidara until Konan speaks, "I'm terribly sorry for him. Deidara isn't one for social graces."

Sasuke waves a hand, "able to paint or not I won't tolerate someone bothering Naruto." Deidara glances over his shoulder between drawing, "your blonde started it." Deidara lowers his head slightly as he notices Itachi glaring at him, "Deidara, leave it alone... before you learn Sasuke's temper."

Konan watches Naruto waves slightly before Sasuke lifts the blonde from the floor and spins him in a circle. Naruto laughs some, "not so fast; I'll throw up." Sasuke waits until the blonde's feet are under him before lowering him to the floor. "If you did, I'd just clean it up." Konan slowly steps towards the completed side of the mural to begin painting. "I notice the place is empty." Sasuke shrugs, "I have certain days I choose not to make any reservations. That way I still have time to have a life." The raven pulls the blonde back towards him gently. Naruto nuzzles against Sasuke's neck a bit as the raven watches the pair continue the mural. Itachi watches his brother in silence.

A/N: And that's the mural. Also Naruto's past seems to be catching up to him a bit, hn? Thanks for reading and thanks for the reviews.
