I looked at Konan and saw her cooking some stew, typically I don't eat this kind of stuff with the guys, I like soup and salad as much as the next girl but… I live with boys. "This is to help us lose weight after all the fattening stuff we ate yesterday." She said with a smile.
"Yeah… it sucks being a girl sometimes." I sighed knowing that unlike my men… I'll get fat if I eat like they do. Good guys but… high prices to be like them. I sat down on the couch and listened to Silversun Pickups. She has no guy band C.D.s at all in her house. I don't know why… unless she hates men as much as I think she may.
"Especially that time of the month." Konan sung making me groan. Yep being a girl can suck, pretty bad. I leaned back on the couch and closed my eyes relaxing the warmth of the house. This is cool, I get to hang out and just have fun being a lazy girl with all the time in the world. I really hope they pay for the classes I missed, those classes don't really matter since I'm taking them now to get rid of the stupid hours I need to get in order to graduate. I still want money to retake them though.
"What do you want to do today?" I asked knowing the day is still young and I want to have as much fun as possible with her since she's my first girl friend in a long time. Ino-pig doesn't count. She shrugged but smiled over at me. I could imagine being friends with her, but lovers… that's a little awkward.
"How about we go to the park?" I asked curiously but I noticed her eyes tighten. I learned quickly that there are some places you just don't talk about around Konan. She still has her wounds from Pain. I can understand this since I've had my own break up experience. It doesn't mean I agree with her avoiding places like this. She needs to keep going and get over it with new memories. This is good and all but I don't know which places are worse than others.
"Are you sure you want to go? Didn't the weather mention it raining?" she asked but I looked past her out at the clear blue sky.
"No clouds." I said simply and she sighed I knew she's going to give in to me, like she really should always remember to do. I don't care if she's a criminal and insane. We all know she needs to give in. The world is just picture perfect that way.
Plus she wants to get in my pants.
"Fine." It was funny seeing her frown over something that just seemed so simple and easy. When we were eating I thought about Pain and Konan. I can't choose them. They belong together, and there's no way I can get between them like how I'm already forced to do. The two of them love each other. Why should I interfere?
"Thank you so much!" I said showing gratitude. This is going to hurt her, but since I'm here why don't I try to help out just a bit? She seemed a little pissed off but I ignored it as we ate lunch. When we were done I drove us to the park in her car, it was nice to drive for once in a long time. Men tend to take the wheel so I'm always stuck in shotgun or the back.
I got on the swings immediately but she hung out on the spinning wheel looking so sad, but I let her be alone to understand that it's over. It could come back, but for right now it's over. I smiled at her and continued to swing. I love this. Just hanging out and being with someone, Naruto and Sasuke just don't get that.
Konan… is hot she really is, but I don't think I'm gay. I really don't. We hung out for a little while longer until it started to get dark, instantly she grabbed my wrist and hurried me to the car, but it was a bit too late. Two guys walked in front of us, so there was no way to get to the safety of the car.
"Hello lesbian and new girl." The leader nodded looking sinister. I glared at him head on and noticed Konan doing the same. She has to be tough if she's joined up with the Akatsuki. If not then we're as good as dead. The guys were cackling to each other acting like they were tough. I can take one but without Konan I'm a goner.
"Back off and leave us alone Sound!" Konan hissed looking extremely mad. I knew that meant she had something to back it up. One of the two guys grabbed my wrist making her punch him and then steal a knife in the leader's pocket. I hadn't even noticed it.
She held the knife in her right hand and had her left fist pulled back ready to fight. The leader glared at her and motioned for the guy to come with him as they left. I watched them go and instantly took her hand feeling a bit nervous. The scene had changed. Konan was now crying.
"I was scared… if I was on my own I don't know what I could do, but if they touched you-" She cut herself off and hugged me tightly. My eyes were wide, I didn't really doubt her at all when they showed up, I was nervous during it but not scared. Comments about death don't mean I'm scared or upset. I'm a practical person.
"You should just worry about getting back together with Pain." I said softly looking into her tear filled eyes. Konan smiled softly but shook her head.
"I only have eyes for you." She informed me.
