"Everything, un?"

"The whole story. Everything. And if he stays, we propose." Deidara thinks about this for a long moment before smiling at him.

"Deal, un." Kakashi goes a little paler but smiles a little back at him. Deidara reaches for his hand. "Wanna do it before he gets to the sad part, un?" Kakashi nods, stealing his hand to hold tight. He grabs more tissues for them. Obito is only to the reunion scene, so he isn't crying yet. He scoots over so they can sit with him. Kakashi pauses the movie, sitting next to Deidara and taking a deep breath.

"We know you were really unsettled by everything that happened. So- this is your chance to get out. We can- we can tell you everything. Then you decided if you wanna stay or go." Obito nods, looking a little like a deer in headlights. Kakashi looks at Deidara, seeing if he wants to start with his life story. He gives a little nod, taking a deep breath.

"Um- My mother died when I was really little, un. And my father beat and raped me. He started selling me out young, and I ran away and Pein took me in when I was sixteen. I was abused by him, too. He beat me half to death more than once, and you saw what his brother did. I killed him and then took over the club." Deidara can't look at him, staring down at his hands. Kakashi rubs his back soothingly, trying for a smile for Obito.

"I don't really remember my parents. I was six when they dropped me off here. Um- I went back and researched it all though. So it all kinda matches up. My mom was really, really sick for a long time. My dad was ex-military with no education and a low paying job, so we couldn't get a loan and we couldn't pay for it. He went to the mafia's loan sharks for the money to try and save her. And they- they did everything. I've looked through the bills myself. There wasn't an experimental procedure they didn't do. But she died. And he couldn't pay the money he owed. So he shot himself in our living room so they couldn't carve him up as a walking warning to others. I was repayment for the debt." Kakashi takes a deep breath, blinking quickly.

"Um- I was raised by everyone here. Mikoto raised me like her son. They were, you know, strippers, but they were family." He snorts, smiling at some memory. "I didn't actually know that bananas were supposed to be eaten and not used solely for blowjob practice till I was seven or so. So there's... downfalls. I guess. Um- when I met Deidara I was in an abusive relationship. He's dead now, so that's over. But after I started dating Dei I was sold as a sex slave to Orochimaru. Deidara killed him as well. And we're- where we are now."

They explain all their ups and downs, including Deidara abandoning Kakashi, Kakashi cheating with Kisame, and all the other crazy rollercoaster events. Both are teary-eyed by the time they're done. Obito sits in silence for a few minutes, everything slowly sinking in. He chuckles weakly, smiling softly at them.

"You really think I'd just walk out after that? Naw, you guys're stuck with me. Sorry I've been mopey these past couple days." Kakashi just drags him into a tight hug, all of them bundling together. Deidara hugs him too, hiding against Obito with a weak little laugh.

"Jerk."

"Bitch." Kakashi's mumbled "asshats" sets them all off into giggles. Deidara and Obito manage to convince Kashi to make them hot chocolate to celebrate. Kakashi sighs like he's put upon but kisses both their heads with a quiet "love you two" before he heads off. He is followed by a chorus of 'I love you's, his partners cuddling on the couch to finish the movie. Kakashi's the only one who pretends to not be bawling by the end of the movie, hiding his face in Deidara's shoulder to hide his tears. Obito laughs at him through his tears. Deidara hugs Kakashi close, chuckling as well. Kakashi whines, nosing his way further into Deidara.

"You guys're so mean to me."

"But we loooovvvvve you!" Deidara and Obito crow in unison. Kakashi laughs, giving Deidara a wet kiss on his cheek.

"Good thing I love you." Deidara smiles hugely at him. Kakashi leans over him to nip at Obito's lip as well. "Love you too." Obito kisses him, grinning. They all fall into bed after, kissing and having fun. They eventually cuddle close with Dei and Obito fighting over the middle. Kakashi ends up wedging himself in the middle, stopping their argument by grinding his ass against Deidara and kissing Obito.

"Hush, you two." They both groan, moving close to him. They all cuddle close. After lots of positioning, they all pass out together.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

The next morning, neither of Kakashi's boys are in bed when he wakes up and the whole penthouse smells like burnt food. Kakashi coughs, pulling on pants and going to find them.

"The hell is going on-" Deidara worriedly wrings his hands while Obito attempts a smile.

"Um- Good morning. We were going to surprise you with breakfast, but…" Kakashi looks at the blackened mess in the pan.

"... What was that going to be?"

"...eggs?" Kakashi eyes it incredulously.

"How- How did they get that black?"

"Well, I got distracted, and-" Kakashi arches an eyebrow. "I kinda left them too long." Kakashi turns to Obito and levels him with the famous stare.

"What were you distracted by?"

"Well, you see, we um…" Obito attempts to hide behind their tiny blonde. Kakashi looks like he's about ready to start tapping his foot or maybe use his heels for evil. "We fucked against the counter."

"You'll be cleaning my counters. I have to take care of my poor baby." Kakashi scoops up the pan, murmuring little 'you'll be okay, it's just a light scorch' to it as he starts washing it. Deidara huffs, going to clean the stove while Obito starts on the counters because they might have done it more than once. He yelps when he realizes the hard way the burner is still on high. They stick Deidara's hand under cold water and delegate him to washing the pan. Kakashi starts on the stove. Kakashi levels a look at Obito. "No more fucking in my kitchen."

Obito swallows thickly. "Yes, sir." Kakashi nods, pointing at a spot he missed. Obito drops his gaze, returning to his cleaning. After the kitchen is spotless, Kakashi shoos them to bed to try and salvage his pan. When Kakashi goes into the bedroom after putting the now-spotless pan away, he finds them fucking again. Kakashi rolls his eyes, heading off for a shower and to get himself dressed for the day. They convince him to take the day off, dragging him to bed with them. They spend most of the day in bed, Kakashi occasionally flitting off to deal with some crisis or another. Around closing, Obito and Dei fall asleep while Kakashi is gone.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

They wake up at around four pm later that day, Kakashi not in bed with them. They get dressed and look around the penthouse for him. While they don't find Kakashi, there's a note from Shizune about her and Kakashi spending the day at the hospital for one of their girls. Deidara and Obito decide to head to the house, leaving a note for when Kakashi's get home. They spend the day at the house, playing and having fun. Obito is curled up on the couch watching TV when Kakashi gets back, Deidara locked in the cage next to it, still in all of his puppy gear. Kakashi curls up next to Obito, snuggling close. He mutters a hello to Deidara. Obito hugs him close, Deidara giving a little wave since he's been told to stay quiet.

"How'd it go?" Obito asks, gently kissing his head. Kakashi shrugs, nuzzling into his neck.

"She died."

"Oh Kakashi, I'm so sorry." Obito holds him a little tighter. Kashi snuggles right into his lap, mouthing at his neck.

"She overdosed. Her partner- I- I failed her."

"Kashi… I'm sure you did all you could." Kakashi shakes his head, hiding against Obito.

"No. She trusted me." Kakashi always takes it hard when they lose a girl, especially a regular or semi-regular dancer.

"And you spent the whole day there for her. There's only so much you can do, hun."

"But she OD'd because I wasn't watching her!"

"Did it happen at work?" Kakashi nods, glancing away from him.

"We had- the issues with Neji the other day? It was drugs. So we kicked him out. But he still… He was selling to customers. And she OD'd with one of them."

"Then it wasn't your fault. Not at all."

"I knew she had issues. I knew it. I normally spend more time with them but I've been distracted and… Fuck." Kakashi hides in his neck when tears start coming. Obito lets him cry, rubbing his back and murmuring reassurances that it was not his fault and that he loves him. Kakashi eventually moves out of his lap, apologizing for interrupting the scene. Obito pulls Kakashi back into his lap, kissing his head.

"It's alright." Kakashi shakes his head.

"No. Go play with our puppy. I'm okay." Obito nibbles at his neck.

"You're not." He pulls away just enough to unlock the cage. "Dei, sweetie, come help me cheer up Kashi." Deidara climbs up on the couch, crawling in Kakashi's lap. Kashi gently pets his hair, wanting Deidara to have a good scene.

"I'm- I'm not up for- Love, I'm just going to go sleep." Deidara looks like he's been kicked when Kakashi moves him off and leaves. Obito pulls Deidara close so he doesn't feel sad, kissing him softly. Deidara just isn't up to it, whimpering 'red' and hiding against him. Obito helps him out of all the puppy stuff, holding Deidara close. They eventually head to the bedroom, Deidara locking himself in their bathroom. Kakashi peers up from the blankets, eyes red-rimmed. "I thought you guys were doing a scene?"

"Dei used his safeword. He's really upset." Obito climbs in bed with him, gently pulling the blankets away enough to snuggle underneath with him. Kakashi hides in the pillows guiltily, not looking at Obito.

"My fault?"

"Who knows." Kakashi makes a pathetic noise.

"Can you go sit with him? When he safewords he needs someone to cry on and a lap to sit in."

"I'll go see if he wants to cuddle with us." Kakashi nods, scooting all the way over for Deidara to have some room. Obito leaves, coming back with a whimpery blonde who immediately clings to Kakashi. Kashi holds him close, shaking like a leaf against his sub. He hides his tears against Dei's head, clearly not up to comforting someone else right now. He's trying his best, though. Obito hugs Kakashi from behind, trying to comfort him while Deidara sobs apologies against Kakashi's neck. Kakashi gently pets Deidara's hair, trying desperately to sooth him. Deidara manages to shut himself up when Obito hisses at him to be quiet, guiltily pulling away.

"Nonono. It's okay. C'mere. I- I've got you. I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset." Deidara hugs him again, pulling him close instead of hiding again. He bites his lip hard, nuzzling gently at Kakashi's head. Kashi apologizes quietly, letting Deidara hide against him. "Shh… I love you. It's okay. I love you. You're perfect." Deidara shakes his head.

"Are- Are you okay af- after what- what happened today?" Kakashi just holds Deidara closer, stopping his questions with a kiss and rather rapidly trying to compose himself.

"Are you okay? How the subdrop? Are you- did I hurt you?" Deidara tries to change the subject.

"Did 'Bito tell you what we did today?" Kakashi's face crumples.

"Oh god, I hurt you. I'm so so sorry."

"No. No, you didn't- I just- I'm sorry. I know you're upset about today, and I- I'm so sorry."

"I- I can't- Deidara, I can't- I swear I'm trying, I- I can't do the Dom thing right now, I-" Deidara hugs him tightly, nuzzling at him.

"I know. I am so sorry." Kakashi breaks down in his arms, sobbing into his shirt. Deidara holds him close, rubbing his back. He looks at Obito helplessly over Kakashi's head as he comforts their boyfriend. Obito gives a little shrug, mouthing "Do you want me to take him?". Deidara shakes his head, waiting until Kakashi has cried himself out and fallen asleep against Dei to gently squirm out of his grip without waking him up. Obito pulls him close, kissing Deidara's head.

"How're you doing?"

"He- He pushed me away. He never pushes me away." Deidara sniffles, trying to keep the sobbing from starting again. Obito gently rubs his back.

"He just had a rough day. He loves you, especially as puppy."

"He doesn't though!" Obito murmurs his next "why?" into Deidara's hair. "He- He always loves it when I sit in his lap. He- He pushed me away like I was nothing."

"I don't think he could handle taking care of someone else right then, baby doll. He adores you. Just give him till tomorrow, okay? He loves it."

"O- Okay, 'Bito. I'm- I'm sorry for stopping our scene."

"It's okay. You were upset." Obito kisses his head, giving Deidara lots of attention now. Deidara shakes his head, hiding against him with a pitiful little whimper. Obito pulls back a little bit, enough so he can kiss Deidara. "Do you want to take a bath with me, puppy?"

"What if Kashi wakes up while we're gone though?"

"He'll be okay. You need aftercare." Deidara drops his gaze, guiltily shaking his head. Obito gently pets his hair. "Hey. It's not bad to need aftercare. Promise."

"'Kashi's upset though. He's more 'portant." Obito shakes his head, kissing his forehead.

"You're equally important. And we can always hop out once he wakes up, if you're really concerned." Deidara just hides against him with a little shake of his head. Obito settles for cuddles, holding him close and whispering praises. Deidara breaks down, sobbing quietly into his chest. Obito just holds him close, letting Deidara sob. The pair eventually wake Kakashi up, Deidara instantly shutting up when he feels the other man move. Obito pets Deidara's hair, kissing over his head.

"It's okay, love. You can still cry or be sad." Deidara shakes his head, clinging to Obito and shrinking away from Kakashi because shit, I woke sir up, don't let him get me. It rather hits Deidara that his normally dominant and in control partner definitely isn't Dom, as Kakashi simply kisses both their heads and stumbles off for a shower. His eyes are still red and puffy from his earlier crying jag. Deidara whimpers, hiding against him again. "Shh... What're you scared for? It's Kakashi, baby. Why's he scare you?"

"I- I woke him up."

"I think he just woke up. No fault of anyone's."

"No. No, he's gunna be mad." Deidara trembles against Obito. Bito holds him close, rubbing his back.

"He's never been really mad at you for that before."

"Still. Still. Sir doesn't like it." Obito pauses a moment.

"He's not your Dom, sweetie." Deidara looks up at him in confusion.

"But…" Obito kisses his head.

"It's almost like when you were both subs. I'm in charge of you, okay? Except tonight, he's even under you, instead of the other way around."

"But he's Kashi-" Obito nods, gently petting Deidara's hair.

"I know. Can you do that, pup? Or would it be easier for you to not play tonight?" There's no malice or anger in Obito's voice, just concern if his sub will be okay.

"Master- Kashi doesn't like that though."

"He needs it tonight."

"Okay… What do we do?" Obito smiles at Deidara, clear praise.

"When you've had a really bad day and you wanna be sub to Kashi and I, what do you like?"

"I like… You two taking control so I don't have to think, yeah?" Deidara looks up at Obito through his lashes, unsure if this is the right answer. Obito nods and kisses his head, nuzzling at him.

"Good boy. We're going to try that. And if it doesn't work, we adjust." Deidara gives a little nod, biting his lip.

"Master?"

"Yes, cutie?"

"Can- Can we ask him first? Just to make sure?" Deidara flinches a little, never having quite gotten used to voicing his opinions and asking questions. Obito nods, kissing his head sweetly. Kakashi comes out of the shower, a towel around his hips. He simply finishes toweling off his hair and climbs in bed nude, hiding under the covers. Deidara frowns, a worried keen escaping. "M- Kashi?"

The muffled "mm?" that comes back isn't quite reassuring, but it's better than earlier. Deidara looks to Obito for help, not knowing what to do. Obito carefully moves Deidara on Kakashi's other side, gesturing for Deidara to touch him. Deidara carefully touches his shoulder.

"Love? Um- well…" Kakashi pushes just the tiniest bit back into his hand, the tension in his shoulders easing a little bit. Deidara manages a little smile, looking to Obito for the explanation. Obito just touches Deidara's hair reassuringly.

"Kakashi, love. Sit up for me." Deidara pulls the blankets away helpfully as Kakashi sits up. Kashi curls straight up to Obito, hands clutching at his shirt. Deidara hangs back, and Obito holds Kakashi close. Obito tugs Deidara close as well, Kakashi immediately clinging to his love as well. Deidara hugs Kakashi too, taking Obito's lead.

"Thank you." Kakashi mumbles quietly. He looks a lot better, smooshed between them. They give him lots of attention, letting him be their sub. Kakashi eventually pads away, coming back with a small arsenal of puppy and kitty-cat stuff. He holds it out to Deidara like a peace offering. Deidara could not have looked happier, dragging Kakashi to their bathroom to help him get ready for Obito. Kakashi helps Deidara with all the puppy stuff, making sure he looks perfect. Deidara uses Kakashi's collar to pull him into a deep kiss. Kashi kisses him back with a little whimper, melting against Deidara. Deidara kisses him for a while before pulling away with a huge grin.

"Come on, Kitten. Master's waiting, yeah." Kakashi pauses just a moment, fidgeting with an ear like he's going to take it off.

"I- um. I'm sorry. About earlier. That was rude and I pulled you out of subspace badly then fell asleep. Do you want me to be Dom again?" Deidara shakes his head, fidgeting a bit.

"I- I like this compromise, yeah." Kakashi nods, giving Deidara a hesitant smile.

"You alright?" Deidara nods, gently fidgeting with Kakashi's collar. Kashi ducks his head to give Deidara another kiss, smiling happily in the carefree headspace. Deidara smiles back, leading him back to where Obito is waiting. Kakashi bounces into the bed, making sure that Deidara gets up fairly easily as well. It's a rather high bed. Deidara just barely manages it, snuggling up to Obito. Kakashi sprawls instead, waiting for instruction. Deidara also looks to Obito for what to do. Obito gently pets Deidara's hair, giving him a deep kiss. Deidara kisses him back with a little moan.

"Kashi, love," Obito mumbles against Deidara's lips, thumbs circling the blondie's nipples to tease him, "Go head out to the living room for me. Wait there with the lube." Kakashi runs off and Deidara pulls Obito closer.

"Nn... Master..." Obito pinches them roughly, clearly in a sadistic mood tonight for Deidara.

"Hush, pet." Deidara whimpers softly, then falls mostly quiet. Obito pushes him to the bed, pinching and biting at his nipples harshly. By the time he's done, Deidara's completely hard and his chest is sensitive beyond belief. Deidara keens when he pulls away, nearly yelping when one of his nipples is flicked as punishment for making sound. Obito snaps his fingers toward the door, giving Deidara a look when he doesn't move right away. Deidara hurries towards the door. Obito shoos him to the couch where Kakashi is waiting, ass in the air and cock heavy between his legs. He's picked up a blindfold on the way. Deidara heads over to the couch, looking to Obito for instruction. "Go open him for me, baby. Whatever way you want."

Deidara gives a little nod. He smirks, reaching out to part Kakashi's legs a little. He lightly licks Kakashi's entrance. Kashi hides his face further in a pillow, the muffled sounds still escaping. Obito settles down to watch, gently petting his hair. Deidara thoroughly stretches Kakashi with his tongue, then with lubed up fingers. Kashi moans out a soft "Deidara... Please...", moving against his hands by the time Dei's got three fingers in him. Deidara slowly pulls his fingers out and looks over at Obito for instructions. Obito arches an eyebrow.

"Is that all you want to do to him?" Deidara shakes his head. "Then go ahead. I want him thoroughly stretched." Deidara nods. He runs off and comes back with Kakashi's tail, pressing the large plug into him before cuddling up to Obito. They watch as Kakashi eventually peeks up from the pillow, the sub obviously wondering what to do now. Deidara looks up at Obito as well, awaiting instructions.

"You don't want to fuck him? Cause this is your only chance to get off all night."

"Can I, master?" Deidara asks, giving Obito his best puppydog eyes. Obito nods, kissing his head. Deidara fucks Kakashi hard and fast the way he likes it, both of them cumming and Deidara pulling out of him after a shorter amount of time than usual. Kakashi goes pretty much limp on his stomach and Deidara sits back on his heels behind him, the pair panting and listening for instructions. Obito gags Deidara, locking him into the underside of the couch. His feet and arms are locked in place by the preplaced handcuffs. He presses a buzzer into Dei's hand.

"This is your safeword, okay?" Deidara sets it off just to make sure it works, nodding with something that looks like a smile around the gag. Deidara feels when Obito climbs back on the couch, listening to the quiet gasp that Kakashi gives. Deidara gets to listen and fidget uncomfortably as he gets hard off listening to his lovers fuck. He struggles against his bonds a bit as he listens to the moans the other two give each other, whimpers drowned out by them. Dei has to listen to them cool down and whisper sweet phrases to each other, standard care when Kashi's kitten. He's a bit of a sensitive sub, and would be more so after the outburst earlier. Deidara tries to wait patiently, knowing all of this, but he can't help the frustrated tears that pool in his eyes as he slowly calms down all by himself.

Dei's left alone for only a few more minutes before Obito climbs onto the floor. He unlocks the gag and all the handcuffs, helping Deidara onto the couch for cuddles. Deidara clings to him, trembling a bit as he hides against Obito. Kakashi adds himself to the cuddle pile, wrapping himself around Deidara. Once Deidara has calmed down a bit, Kashi and Dei take off their gear and get water before the pair both cuddle up to either side of Obito in bed and they all fall asleep in a snuggly pile.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Deidara wakes up first, all wrapped around Obito. He snuggles closer with a little content sound, looking to see if Kakashi is awake yet. The shower's running, so it seems that he's up. Deidara slips out of bed to go make tea, shivering in the cold night air and murmuring a curse about the heat. The tea is nice and warm in his hands, sending billows of steam into the air. He hums lightly to himself, starting the task of cleaning up their gear from that morning. It's not the most fun, but keeps him busy. When he's finished, Deidara wanders back into their bedroom to put everything away. Kakashi's just toweling off his hair, already in his club clothes. He always looks so different without makeup. Deidara leans in the doorframe, whistling lowly.

"Hey, Hot Stuff." Kakashi looks up, smirking at him and giving him a little salute.

"How'd you sleep?"

"Well since I had you two, un. You, un?" Kakashi nods, his own version of a "decent". "Are you working late tonight, un?"

"Probably. Um- We're gunna do a thing. For Ginkii. So- yeah. I'll be home really late."

"Do you want me to come pick you up after, un? Or for us all to meet up in the penthouse, un? What will make it easiest on you, un?" Kakashi gives a little shrug, drifting into the bathroom to start on his make-up. Deidara follows him, perching on the counter. Kakashi starts on a pretty dramatic style, fairly focused on it. Deidara watches him, always rather amazed at his skill. It looks effortless and quickly transforms Kakashi into something ethereal. Deidara hops off the counter when Kakashi leaves the bathroom, following him like a lost puppy and frowning when he's pretty much completely ignored. "Kashi?"

"Yeah?" Kakashi tugs on a pair of high boots, finally looking satisfied with his reflection.

"Are you okay, un?" The tall man looks up at him, nodding.

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"

"You're being really quiet, yeah."

"Oh. Sorry?" Deidara shakes his head.

"It's fine, un." Kakashi starts lacing up the boots, falling silent. Deidara kneels in front of him, stealing his other foot and doing that side for him. Kakashi thanks him with a smile and a kiss, heading off to make breakfast. Deidara follows, clinging to the back of his shirt like Kashi'll try to leave. Kakashi lets him come with, working around Deidara easily. Deidara doesn't let him go, even when breakfast is ready. Kakashi gives him a soft kiss.

"Can you go get Obito?" Deidara shakes his head, hugging Kakashi around the waist and hiding against him. Kakashi hugs him close, kissing the little blonde's head. "What's wrong, love?"

"I'm sorry about what happened to your friend, un. Please don't be sad, un." Deidara sounds upset, and the way he clings to him reminds Kakashi about how distant he was the last time one of his girls passed. Sure, it was an understandable reaction to seeing his best friend shoot himself, but Deidara had been left alone for weeks. And he had injured himself dancing after hours on top of it.

"... Is this because of how I was after Kisame?" Deidara gives a guilty little nod.

"I- I know it's selfish, un." Kakashi gathers him close, giving him a soft kiss.

"I loved Kisame. He was my best friend, one of my only confidants, and I slept with him. And he shot his brains out on me. I don't-" Kakashi's voice cracks softly, the dancer not really over it. "He- was different. I won't this time. And you've got Obito if I do check out again." Deidara nods, hugging him tightly.

"I'm sorry, yeah." Kakashi gives a little shrug, holding him tightly. Deidara gently pulls away when Kakashi finally lets go, going to fetch Obito. When Deidara pulls a sleepy Obito back in, Kashi's got the table all set and food is ready. Deidara gently nudges him towards a chair. Obito sits down, still groggy. They eat breakfast, Dei shooing Obito back to bed and starting on the dishes. Kakashi says good-bye, kissing Deidara and heading off.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

After a late night of dancing and mourning and a few too many drinks, Kakashi staggers back to the house. After a couple of tries, he manages to get the blurry lock to turn and stumbles his way inside. Deidara is asleep on the couch, head in Obito's lap. The other man is also asleep, head tipping back on the top of the couch and snoring softly. Kakashi doesn't want to be around anymore people, heading straight to bed.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Kakashi wakes up very hungover that night, Obito practically pushing him out of bed. "You. Go shower. You're making the whole place smell like booze." Kakashi grouses at him but goes to take a shower, hiding in the bathroom for a long time. He comes out to a surprisingly good breakfast on the bed with a little note from Deidara that reads "We're all staying in tonight, and I've sent Obito to get a few things. Don't tell him I can actually make food." and is signed with the kanji for teal. Kakashi thanks him silently, curling back up in the bed. Deidara comes in after a while to fetch his dishes, turning the lights out for him and quietly closing the door until it is open just a crack.

Kakashi just hides in the room and reads and sketches and is still. He hears a muffled argument in the other room and the door slamming as someone storms out. Deidara brings him some take out for dinner. Dei doesn't say anything to Kakashi, leaving it just inside the room and closing the door again for him. Kakashi eventually comes out, takeout clutched in his hands.

"... Dei?" The blonde jumps a little when he hears Kakashi voice, giving him a tense little smile.

"Hi, Love. I thought you were in bed, un." Kashi holds out the takeout and the Princess Bride like a peace offering. One of their old pastimes was to simply eat dinner and watch their favorite movies and chat. Deidara takes the movie, going over to put it in. He sits on the couch with Kashi but ignores the food. Kakashi insistently feeds him, managing to get some of the Chinese into him.

"Where's 'Bito?" Deidara can't help a little flinch.

"He, um, went back to the club." Kakashi coaxes another bite of lo mein into his mouth, waiting for Deidara to swallow before talking.

"Why?" Deidara shrugs, falling silent. He doesn't eat any more and after the movie he disappears into the bathroom. He turns on the shower to hide the sounds of him throwing up dinner but the running water isn't sufficient to cover up his vomiting. Kakashi's waiting with a toothbrush and a cup of coffee when he's done. "We talked about throwing up when you're upset." Deidara brushes his teeth but passes on the coffee, guiltily shaking his head.

"If you are passing because it has calories-" Deidara drops his gaze, that act alone telling him he's right. Kakashi presses the coffee into his hands, pulling Deidara back to the couch to talk. "So what happened?"

"Bito was upset and asked why I wasn't mad and I said you just had a rough night and he asked if I thought 'they' were skinny and I just-"

"They? My girls?"

"He said he thought you were hanging out with the hookers instead."

"They're all my girls, now especially. Why does it matter?"

"He thought you were sleeping around. With skinny girls." Kakashi blinks. And blinks again. Then he grabs the phone and calls Obito. Obito answers totally drunk.

"Wha'?" He says angrily as a greeting.

"Come home."

"Huh? W'y?"

"Shall I list the reasons for you? You made Deidara feel bad about his weight and told him that I might be fucking my girls because they're thinner than him? I'm sorry, but it gets better because then you left to get drunk!"

"Kash' shhhhhh..." Obito slurs. "'m drunk."

"Put Hinata on the phone." There's a mumble of 'Kashi wants yeeww' before the phone is shifted over.

"Where are you guys?" Hinata asks. "He's scaring away my customers."

"Put him in the penthouse. Let him dry out." Hinata says a goodbye, calling one of the girls over to take Obito downstairs before hanging up the phone. Kakashi hangs up the phone, going back to Deidara to cuddle his love. Deidara shies away from him a sad little sniffle. "Love, I didn't sleep with them."

"But 'Bito said..." Kashi gently cups his face, Deidara seeing his longtime partner just looking at him.

"You and Obito are singularly the most handsome people I've ever seen. I don't want to be with anyone but you and him. Thinner or not."

"Promise?" Deidara asks softly, his voice that of someone who's been broken too many times to trust blindly. Kakashi murmurs a 'promise', kissing his forehead. Deidara hugs him tightly, hiding against him.

"I'm sorry I believed him, yeah." Kakashi pulls Deidara into his lap, nuzzling at him.

"It's okay. You love him too." Deidara snuggles a little closer.

"Yeah, but I love you, un." Kakashi kisses at his head, peppering them all over him.

"It's fine. You didn't do anything wrong." Deidara hides against his neck.

"Kashi?" Kakashi murmurs a 'yeah?' in between kisses, determined to cover every inch of his face in kisses. Deidara mouthes at Kakashi's neck. "Are you still sad, un?"

"Yeah. And she'll be missed. But I'm better. It's easier." Kakashi helpfully tilts his head for Deidara. Dei nibbles a bit.

"Can I help, un?" Kakashi shivers, a hand slowly tracing his back.

"How d'you wanna help?" Deidara looks up at him with big blue eyes.

"Puppy cuddles, un?" Kakashi stretches them out on the couch, kissing Deidara soft and slow. He wraps a hand around his pet's throat, occasionally giving a little squeeze but mostly just happy to kiss him. Deidara mewls softly, kissing him back a little desperately.
