1zara-uchiha1 and I don't own the Naruto cast or anything else you might recognize. 1zara-uchiha1 owns Laura and I own Kahlan. Together we own the plot.
Chapter 82
Note: Things will never be calm for long.
~Laura's POV
Silence seems to take over the dining table as Kahlan yells, glaring at everyone but it doesn't last long at all as Tobi… has thrown… a plate of Mac & Cheese which was probably aimed at my brother who happened to move and hit Kahlan… right in her cheek, also hitting me in the forehead.
"That… is… it," Kahlan spaces it slowly as I watch her slowly turn to Tobi who is staring at her, not saying anything.
I watch with glee as she stands up while picking up a plate of mash potatoes before throwing it at him, knocking the damn orange masked man off of his chair and onto the floor with a THUMP! Hooray!
"Yay," I say with a grin as I see some of the members grinning, meaning Deidara and Kisame are grinning.
"Now, calm down," Kahlan says with a small glare directed to everyone before sitting back in her seat as I start giggling, Kahlan seems a little mad at everyone for starting a food fight.
"It's fine, ya know," I say with a smile as she shakes her head, not agreeing with me. I smile a little before picking a bit of food off of my forehead before putting it into a napkin; well I think that was cheese now where is the Mac.
Conversation soon takes over again but it soon turns into fights between Deidara, Tobi and Hidan. Nothing seems to be calm at all around the table but no food is being thrown at least.
I grip Kahlan's hand a little with a smile to show its fine, Kahlan only gives me a tiny smile before stabbing her chicken with her fork before eating it, she still doesn't seem that happy.
Time takes its stroll as dinner seems to take forever~ I want to try this cake~ sooooo much~
I can't help but daydream for a little while everyone finishes eating; my parents and Kahlan's parents will be going home tomorrow and we're most likely going to be going back to training after they have left, probably in the morning, but… once our training is done, the war will probably start and no doubt someone from each side is going to die… I really don't want anyone to die, Tobi / Obito can die for all I care though, but… I have to keep my head high~ probably because if the Akatsuki found out I knew almost everyone's weaknesses, including the Konoha ninjas', very horrible things would happen.
"Laura," I hear my name being called as I pick my head up and out of my palm, blinking my eyes a few times, "get ready," Kahlan says with a smile, standing beside me before walking out into the kitchen with Konan.
I force a smile onto my lips as the remaining of my thoughts linger… why does this have to happen here anyway, I've bonded with most of the members and the Konoha ninjas and the thought of any of them getting hurt or killed… kills me a little.
My smile is soon replaced by a grin as my family begins to sing the song: happy birthday which slowly makes everyone join in as the cake is brought in, it's completely covered in white icing so I don't know what kind of cake it is.
"Make a wish," Kahlan says while bringing the cake in front of me, it says 'Happy 18th Birthday Laura!' on the front of it in purple icing. With a grin I make a wish, I wish that no one dies in the war, or at least no one I care about the most dies in the war to come with the Konoha ninjas and the Akatsuki.
I blow the candles out after making my wish and everyone starts to clap, making me blush a little, this is kinder embarrassing, ya know! Epic people are clapping for me!
"What cha wish for Tiny," my brother asks as I know what he is going to say so I glare, "wishing to be taller," he asks as I glare more before turning my head away from him, ignoring him till I hear and see my mum thump him round the back of the head. HA!
"Don't be rude," my mum says while rolling her eyes, way to ruin a loving moment bro.
I watch with glee as Konan delicately cuts the cake up into pieces that are suitable for each person, giving the guys she knows eats a lot a slightly bigger piece while I get the first piece, I now know that it's chocolate! My favourite cake of all is chocolate with vanilla white icing~
Taking a big bite out of it, I nod my head, this is vanilla icing! Kyaaa~! I love this cake! I would marry it if I could~!
I glance round the room while looking up from my cake to see Zetsu, Sasori, Pein, Sasuke and Mr. Ward not eating, maybe they don't like cake, and I know Sasori can't eat; Zetsu can only eat… humans… Sasuke doesn't like sweets and I don't know why Pein and Mr. Ward aren't having any, maybe they don't want any.
I smile slightly to myself while standing up, I shall get the sweet hating Sasuke to eat this cake~
"Saaasuke~!" I sing while jumping up from my seat and stand beside him, his seat is four down from me. "Try~" I sing with a childish tone as he eyes me carefully along with my cake, probably thinking I am planning something with the cake.
"No thank you," he says politely as I pout and pull the spare chair beside him out before plopping down on it with my pout.
"Pleeeeeaaaasseeee~"
"No,"
"Pretty please with… umm… what do you like… with… pocky and ramen and rice and tomatoes on top~" I sing with a pout as his eyes snap from the table and then to me… opps… he has never told me he likes tomatoes.
"How do you know I like tomatoes?" he asks while narrowing his eyes a little, I can feel his eyes and some others eyes on me right now… think fast! Faaast!
"I was being random but thanks for the future info~" I say with a giggle as he sighs slightly, dropping his head a little like he just gave out information that I didn't know about.
"Say 'Ahh~'," I say with a tune as he eyes me again, slowly getting the idea that I'm not giving up till I get him to try this awesome epic cake.
With a long pause and sigh, Sasuke finally closes his eyes and opens his mouth; finally letting me feed him the cake of awesomeness.
With a smile of victory, I continue to eat my cake beside him as he forcefully… forces
I finish off my cake with a big sigh of happiness as I stand up from my seat to stretch.
"Laura~ don't forget the family tradition," my brother sings with a hint of amusement as I slowly turn my head to him, daring him to continue because I have already planned to fill his pillow with whip cream tonight… no really… when he goes to have his night bath I am doing it~!
"What family tradition," Konan asks while looking between me and my brother, maybe wondering what our tradition.
"The person in our family whose birthday it is has to sing to karaoke, showing how their voice has changed over the year," my dad says with his grin as I really wanna run right now, knowing my brother he's gonna make me sing embarrassing songs!
"We can do that now," my brother says while standing up from his seat, picks me up OUT of my seat before carrying me off into the living room where I can see the karaoke game already set up, it's from England and you just put in a song and artist and it looks up the song online, the karaoke one of it before putting it onto the game… wait its already set up… HE PLANNED THIS!
"John! Put me down damn it! I will murder you-you horrible excuse for a brother! Hidan would make a better brother!" and that is saying something!
"I don't fucking want a fucking sister!" Hidan yells into the room as many people seem to be following as well as my dad who is bring the alcohol which is a very bad idea… that I know! Drunken ninjas spell trouble though it will be entertaining to record for later!
"Let's start with Kesha, Cannibal," my brother says with glee while putting me down before handing me the wireless microphone… I am going to hurt you, Kahlan has only let me listen to this once when we both heard it first time then she… banned me from listening to it so it must be bad.
"Oh no, she is not singing that," Kahlan says while following everyone in before glaring at my brother.
"She can sing that," my dad says with a grin, whoa, I forgot my dad is a Kesha fan… damn it to heck-sin-key! "Laura is eighteen now, making her a full adult, she can do what she wants now," he says with a smile before giving me a serious look, "no kids before your twenty though," he says with his serious look which makes me react horribly.
"Ewwww," and that is my response.
"Let her sing it, I want to hear this song," Kisame says with a grin while plopping down on one of the sofas as many of everyone finds a seat, making me stand in the middle of the room with the microphone as my brother starts the song… damn you brother… damn you and your soon to be whipped cream filled pillow. Kahlan gives one last sigh before sitting down beside Konan. She is probably letting it go for now since what my dad said is kinder true, I am a legal adult now.
With a sigh, I turn to the television, the lyrics soon appear on the screen, "I have a heart, I swear I do,
But just not, baby, when it comes to you,
I get so hungry when you say you love me,
Hush if you know what's good for you,
I think you're hot, I think you're cool,
You're the kind of guy I'd stalk in school,
But now that I'm famous, you're up my anus,
Now I'm gonna eat you, fool!" I sing while getting some whistles from the people behind me on the sofa before hearing two yells, probably in pain from the punches they probably got from Kahlan and Konan, the two girls always keep everyone in line~
I sing the chorus which doesn't really interest me then the next verse starts.
"Whenever you tell me I'm pretty,
That's when the hunger really hits me,
Your little heart goes pitter patter,
I want your liver on a platter,
Use your finger to stir my tea,
Then, for dessert, I'll suck your teeth,
Be too sweet and you'll be a goner,
Yep, I'll pull a Jeffrey Dahmer," this only makes me wonder… who the heck is Jeffrey Dahmer? The song continues till the end with small remarks here and there which I ignore to sing to the song~ the tune is pretty good though I don't' understand most of the words of this song.
"Now for a duet~" my brother says with a glee as I look to him as he has a bottle of beer in his hand as he chooses a next song before throwing a random microphone at the group of Akatsuki members. Unlucky for Deidara, he catches the remote which makes my brother point a finger at him, "Go sing Blondie," my brother says with a smirk as Deidara glares at my brother before taking a swing of his own beer bottle before standing up and calmly walking over to me, it seems Deidara can handle his drinks from the look of it but I think that is his first drink so I cannot be sure.
"Random!" my brother yells while clicking the random button as the song 'Love like Woe' by The Ready Set appears. "Begin my minions!" and it looks like my brother has had too much to drink… he must have drunk a lot then.
I nod my head before singing the beginning verse, it seems Deidara and I take turns with the verses.
"I'm thinking baby you and I are undeniable,
But I'm finding out love's unreliable," I sing with a smile as I know this song well, it's one of my favourites.
"I'm giving all I got to make you stay,
or am I just a roadblock in your way?" Deidara sings with a tune as I notice something, he has a pretty good singing voice. He takes another hugeee swing of his beer as I begin my next verse.
"'Cause you're a pretty little windstorm,
out on the boulevard,
something like a sunset,
Oh, you're a shooting star," I sing with a grin as Deidara takes the next verse.
"And I might drive myself insane,
if those lips aren't speaking my name," he sings with a drunken tune before pulling me towards him with his arm…
I… umm… ehh… Ahh… he… umm… k-k-kiss…es… me… which makes me drop my microphone… he… pulls away from me with a huge grin… before he is soon whacked over the head by a pillow which soon becomes barrage of pillows… many… many pillows
"Get the fuck away from my sister!" my brother yells while grabbing every nearest pillow to him before throwing them at Deidara, Deidara seem to be getting hit by a few before throwing them back at him, creating a war with pillows.
"Laura," Kahlan says while pulling me over to the sofa and hugging me… I let her as she slowly pulls away and cover my mouth… well… aha… there goes my first… kiss. "That's it, she's not playing now," Kahlan says while glaring at Deidara who grins while holding up his hands who only grin as well.
"Neither is he, Tiny still can later," my brother says while glaring death at Deidara who seems to be glared at by many people, Deidara plops down beside Sasori who shakes his head at Deidara, sighing for some reason. "But someone is~" my brother says while regaining his drunken state, "Snow Cone here and Itachi there can~!" he says with his drunken tone while choosing the song by random, Fireworks by Katy Perry.
I can hear Deidara whisper something to Sasori which causes Sasori to glare at him and whisper something back… I notice something… he doesn't sound so drunk now… kinder weird.
I bite my lips slightly while looking between Itachi and Kahlan, hopefully nothing turns into fights. I'll try to stay quiet till I forget that… event… Deidara is drunk… he won't remember… so I shouldn't either, a kiss has to be remembered by each person for it to be valid.
