"Danna, wakey wakey." I groaned and turned over. "Come on Danna, it's time for breakfast, you need to get up!"
"Five more minutes brat." I said sleepily, digging my face back into the pillow. I felt a gentle stroking on my spine and I immediately tensed a bit.
"Now Danna, or they'll think you're sick again." I sat up gently and rubbed my eyes. Deidara squealed."You're so cute Danna!"
"Don't think all this cute stuff is going to let you keep being seme." I growled. "That was your one and only time brat."
"Whatever you say Danna." said Deidara with a shrug. I decided to take a shower because of last nights fun activities. Soon the warm water was on me, and I half expected Deidara to come in.
My wishes came true about halfway through when I felt someone gently scrubbing my back. I turned to see Deidara frowning.
"Why do you always turn around Danna?"
"Because normal people do not shower together."
"And we're normal, un?" Deidara asked with a laugh. "Now come on un, this time you're washing my hair." He said it as though it would be a punishment, however I loved every single second of it. He used scented shampoo a definitive trait of a manly man, and I swear I got high off of it. However halfway through the wash I noticed him wincing.
"Am I hurting you?" I asked, my fingers gently rubbing his head. He smiled.
"No un, it's from my hair. I constantly lose my hair because of my purging, and new ones try and grow in, but they itch like crazy and I keep scratching them so my scalp is raw in some places."
"Looks like I'll have to keep you from scratching." I said as I pushed him gently in front of the water.
In reality, it was really uncomfortable to shower with him. You just saw how emaciated he was, sure he'd put on a few pounds, but his bones still stuck out enough that his skin looked like it would rip with almost any movement.
"Conditioner too Danna." he said handing me another bottle.
"And you think you deserve to be seme why?" I asked as I squirted the stuff into my hand. He rolled his eyes, yet sighed with delight when I gently began to rub the conditioner in his hair. It was the same scent as his shampoo, so five more minutes of me getting loopy off it.
"Danna gentler." Deidara muttered, and I went softer, making sure to coat each lock of hair with the goop, when suddenly we heard a knocking on our door, not sure how we heard it since the water was running, but Deidara leaned over and turned the water off so we could hear clearly.
"Deidara? Sasori?" At that Deidara started freaking.
"It's Kabuto un! If he catches us like this!"
"What?" I yelled to Kabuto.
"Sasori you have a visitor, is Deidara in there with you?" he asked curiously. I sighed.
"Yeah."
"Danna!" Deidara whispered giving me a shake, I put my hand over his mouth.
"He got some of my paint on him, and I'm the only one who knows how to get it off." I was secretly thankful I'd worked on my puppets yesterday and accidentally left one of my containers of paint open, it was a good cover.
"Oh. Well you have a visitor, finish up in there and report outside as soon as possible." And with that we heard him walk out of the room. To me it didn't sound like he believed us.
"Idiot." I muttered with a laugh, when Deidara smacked me on the shoulder. "What the hell was that for brat?"
"You gave me a heart attack un! I mean I thought you were turning us in un!"
"And why would I do that?" I asked, "When I haven't had the chance to be seme yet?" Deidara giggled, gently pressing his lips to mine happily.
"Go on un, you have a visitor." said Deidara as he stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around himself. In a few minutes I was dressed and stepping outside of our room, I wasn't expecting Deidara's hand to close around mine. I turned to look at him, his hair was still wet and he smiled.
"I'm curious un."
"Sasori!"
"Granny Chiyo?" I asked, staring at the old woman who had been waiting in the hallway. Deidara's hand slipped from mine and his eyes widened.
"Oh right, Granny Chiyo this is Deidara, Brat this is my grandmother."
"Nice to meet you un!" said Deidara happily holding out his hand, my grandmother smiled, taking Deidara's hand.
"I've heard much about you from Sasori." she said with a smile.
"You talk about me alot huh Danna un?" asked Deidara, I glared at him.
"Don't flatter yourself brat." He laughed, then his hand went for mine again which I gladly took.
I noticed a flicker of something in my grandmother's eyes.
It wasn't anger, or disappointment, or anything like that.
It almost seemed amused, like, she was happy for me?
"Sasori, I came to talk to you about next week, I really need you to come Sasori, I can't do that alone."
"But why, I mean every time I go back it hurts me, it does nothing but make me feel worse. I'm not trying to be disrespectful, I'm trying to help myself."
"Sasori please." said my grandmother.
"You should go un." said Deidara with a small smile. I looked at him, wondering if he remembered what happened last night, the entire breakdown. "You have no idea how hard it is to get someone out of rehab for even an hour? Just go, say hi to your parents for me."
I looked at him who was gently smiling, back to my grandmother who was looking hopefully.
"This is the last year." I muttered, earning a hug from my grandmother.
"Thank you Sasori."
I turned to Deidara with a glare in my eyes. "You owe me."
"When you come back, you're seme un." I smirked.
"When I get back, that night."
"Deal Danna."
The next morning I was to leave rehab for a week, only to return for treatment. I'd have an orderly bring me to the airport where I would meet my grandmother. I'd have to call rehab every night and talk to my therapist, but then they'd let me talk to Deidara, and he promised to be sitting by the phone, waiting for my call.
It was a pretty sucky morning, I woke up before Deidara and gave him a kiss on the cheek before I left, making him smile, then turn around and cuddle his pillow tighter. I smiled, running my finger through his hair, reluctant to leave him, but stepped out of the room with my bag. The bag contained the essentials, except for one thing.
Hiruko.
I figured he could keep brat company.
To make my morning even better Kabuto was going to drive me, which was so fucking perfect. We were taking one of the little cars the place owned. I was welcome to sit in the front, but instead preferred to sit in the back. Soon we were on our way, it was about a half hour trip, and I was just leaning on my bag, when suddenly Kabuto started talking.
"I'm sorry about this Sasori, honestly I really am."I looked up dazed and confused, what the hell was he talking about.
Suddenly the car began drifting.
Into the other lane.
So cars were coming straight at us.
"Kabuto!" I shrieked, immediately trying to get into the front and grab the wheel. He grabbed me by my shoulder and violently threw me back, not that it hurt, but still.
"You ruined Lord Orochimaru's specimen." he said glaring. "You ruined his fuck buddy, his little angel. I'm afriad I can no longer allow you to interfere, Lord Orochimaru will forgive me."
My eyes glared at him, when I noticed another car coming straight at us, trying hard to swerve but I knew they wouldn't make it. I placed myself between the back and the front seat, tucked up my knees and cradled my head, just as the other car smashed into us, the force causing both cars to go off the road, or something.
I'm pretty sure I got knocked out for a while, because I woke up a few, no I can't say that, I wasn't sure how much time had passed. I moaned, the pain was intense in my head, although the true agony was when I tried to move my knee. I'd managed to get my door open, it hadn't been smashed in or anything, and tried to escape, only to have complete and utter agony meet me, and almost black out when I tried to move my left leg. Must've been from the impact of my knee hitting the seat in front of me.
I was alive.
I fucking lived.
I'm starting to think I'm immortal, and now I sound like Hidan, just freaking perfect. Soon the pain was too great for me, and I felt myself blacking out once more, but before I did, I was able to see one sight that gave me pure satisfaction.
Kabuto was laying back in the driver's seat, I noticed that the front of the car had been packed in, in short Kabuto had been crushed. Blood was running out of his mouth, and I had no doubt he was dead.
Orochimaru had lost his little fucking spy.
I woke up in a place that I'd seen before. The hospital, same annoying beeping monitor, same ugly colored walls, although as a nice surprise my wrists weren't chained down this time.
"Sasori!" I turned to see an elderly woman sitting next to my bed. I was scared.
"Who are you?"
"Sasori it's me Granny Chiyo." she said, reaching out a hand calmly to touch me. I backed into the sheets and started screaming.
She could've been a pedifile for all I knew!
She looked hurt and confused at the same time, and soon doctors had rushed in. Now I was crying because I'd tried to get out of the bed, but my knee was so out of it that it had hurt like hell to move it that tiny inch. I felt a small tingle of pain in my arm, and then I blacked out again.
When I came to the second time, I didn't wake up fully at first. My limbs were still numb, but I could hear and feel. I felt something cold on my head, and short jerks every now and then.
"Hurry up you idiot!" Now that sounded familiar. "If we get caught."
"We won't un, and besides, he likes this." I groaned softly, and the voices stopped.
"Is he waking up again? Deidara if he wakes up and starts screaming we're busted!"
"Hidan shut up un!" My eyes opened, at first the images were bleary, but then the images of two teens came clear to me. They both glanced at each other and I frowned.
"Hi Sasori." said the blonde one softly, and he gently touched my cheek. "I'm just washing your hair un, you liked that remember?"
"Who are you?" My face became afraid, and the boy's voice became unsteady.
"Remember Danna, I'm Deidara. Anorexic, blind in one eye?" He made it sound like a joke, but I could hear his voice unsteadying. "You loved me un."
"I don't remember." I said trying hard to think, and the boy began to cry, not just cry but sob hysterically. The boy next to him patted his back. I knew I'd gone to far then.
"Geeze brat, you really need a sense of humor." At that his head immediately picked up and the other boy stared.
"You, you remember me un?"
"Yes brat I remember you, and I'd like to ask you and Hidan what you two think you are... Owwww!" I yelped as Deidara literally launched himself on me, of course hitting my knee, and started nuzzling and cuddling me, kissing my lips every chance he could get.
"I knew you wouldn't forget me Danna! I knew it!" he said, sitting back on the bed. At that moment the door opened, and a few doctors came in, along with Itachi, Kisame, and Nagato who all shared the same expression as a puppy who got caught chewing the slippers. Then Dr. Sayra came in.
"Deidara what are you?" she asked shocked, when Deidara cut in.
"He remembers me un! And Hidan too."
"Why is everyone questioning my memory!" I asked angrily, gently shifting to make room so Deidara could lie next to me, and seeing stars when I moved my leg.
"Sasori don't move." warned one of the doctors. "You dislocated your kneecap, we had to operate on it, and it's still unsure if a second operation is necessary.
Oh this sounded like fun. Suddenly the old woman walked in again.
"Why is she here?" I asked, and Deidara looked at me.
"She's your grandmother un, remember?" I shook my head.
"Are you playing with me un?"
"No brat I seriously don't know her." I said, rubbing my head.
"I don't remember her."
