"Deidara?" Kira asked poking the unconscious man. "I think I killed him." I wouldn't be surprised. "Well he's alive, but thankfully I have a backup plan." "Yoohoo wake up!" She said just as he opened his eyes. She smiled, "Seriously dude you need to stop doing that."

Deidara turned bright red, "How long have I been out?" He mumbled.

"A whole day," Kira said rolling her eyes, "Kisame and Itachi are coming back today, unfortunately."

Deidara smiled broadly at the fact that Kira was just as unenthusiastic about Itachi's return as he was, but as he went to stand a throbbing pain emerged in the back of his skull, "Ow!"

"You must have hit your head when you fell." Kira lied, knowing she had purposely triggered the nerves at the base of his neck as a part of her newest scheme. "Come to the kitchen I'll help you out and make you some tea." She smiled like she was innocent and led him into the kitchen.

Deidara's head was spinning and not from the pain, "Hey Kira thanks a lot. I mean this is the nicest you've ever been to me." He snapped his mouth closed regretting his words and cast a glance a Kira as she brought over his tea, placing it gently in front of him. "Sorry I didn't mean it like you know."

Kill him. "I will eventually." Kira laughed and said, "No I get it, it's just that I'm the new kid and I'd heard rumors about Akutski, I just didn't want to be underestimated and walked all over you know. Sometimes the best way to gain respect is through brute force."

"Yeah I get it," Deidara said feeling guilty for opening his big mouth.

"No problem," She said as she began relaxing his nerves until she completely erased the pain and tension. "Feeling better?" Kira asked leaning towards him letting her breath sweep across his neck. "Come on, be a man for once, we're running out of time."

"Almost," Deidara said reaching a hand out and pulling her closer, gently kissing her just as the kitchen door opened.

"Damn sweetness! You sure work fast don't you?!" Kisame laughed. Itachi just glided, and yes he had the nerve to glide, right past them.

"Damn it didn't work!" You don't know for sure child. "Well I'll just wait and see, I guess." "Um I'm gonna go now." Kira mumbled and walked off to her room leaving the two men alone.

"Well you're really robbing the cradle aren't you?" Kisame said winking.

"What's that supposed to mean. I just kissed her Itachi did too," Deidara said, still giddy from the kiss.

"Uh hello you're 26, Itachi is 19, and sweetness, well do you know how old she is Diedara?" Kisame said, his grin growing bigger.

Fear began to gnaw at Deidara's gut as he guessed, knowing that since he wasn't on her team, he knew a lot less about Kira than Kisame and Itachi did, "18?" He said hopefully.

"Nope do you want to guess again?" Kisame said evilly. Deidara gulped and shook his head. Kisame smiled and moved extremely close to his face, "She'll be 16 in two months."

He groaned, "That's just great, are you telling me I just kissed a 15 year old?"

"Yup! Practically illegal! Isn't that hilarious!?" Kisame shouted laughing as he walked off, feeling extraordinarily proud of himself.

Meanwhile Kira never actually made it to her room.

"I can't believe he actually kissed me," Kira mumbled to herself smiling, "Who knew he actually had a pair." Just as she was about to laugh someone grabbed her arm and shoved her into the wall of the dimly lit hall. "What the hell?!" Kira looked up to see to swirling red eyes. "What do you want-" But she didn't finish her sentence as Itachi kissed her. And it was nothing like before he was actually kissing her, and let's just say she wasn't trying to stop him. And suddenly she remembered that perfect night with Sasuke. His kiss brought on an electric spark, Itachi's was like a raging fire, and he was a much better kisser than Sasuke.

As he pulled away his eyes were still swirling, "You kiss me you belong to me. Stay away from Deidara, Sakura." He said coldly and began to walk away.

Kira was frozen in place, dazed, happy, confused, and scared. "He called me Sakura." Correct him quick. Pretend you don't know what he was talking about. "Kira!" She called after Itachi, her heart pounding so hard it hurt, from the fear or happiness she didn't know.

Itachi whipped around, "What?" He said.

"You," She took a deep breath regaining her composure, "You called me Sakura, my name is Kira." Sakura couldn't breathe, terrified she'd been found out.

Itachi was quiet for a moment before turning while saying, "I don't k now what you're talking about I called you Kira." And with that he disappeared down the hall.

"So you're Ino?" Hana said interestedly.

"Yup and you're Hana, right?" Ino said, while Kiba looked at her strangely, a red mark still present from their last breakup.

"Yes" She said laughing.

"Kiba's older sister, right?" Ino continued suspiciously.

"Ino seriously, do you really not trust me!?" Kiba said angrily just as a fist crashed into his skull.

Strangely enough it was Hana's not Ino's, "Kiba how dare you talk back to your girlfriend and try to humiliate her! Mother and I have taught you better than that. She has every right to be suspicious and exert her authority as your girlfriend! You should be thankful you could even get such a strong woman to date you. Keep that in mind for the future." With that Hana let go of Kiba's ear turned to a smiling Ino and shook her hand, "It was great meeting you Ino, I'm sorry I have to leave so early. We should get lunch some time."

"Agreed, it was great seeing you two." And with that Hana left and Ino turned to Kiba who was just getting to his feet, "I love your sister Kiba!" She said cheerfully and Kiba suddenly realized what kind of future lay ahead of him.

"Hey" whispered a voice in Hinata's ear, arms wrapped around her waist. She smiled turning bright red.

"Hi Gaara" she squeaked out. He smiled and kissed her neck, causing her to turn redder than humanly possible. "Stop, we we are in a a hospital!" She stuttered out.

"So?" He murmured dragging her into a supply closet, where he continued his fun, when suddenly he stopped. "You look tired." He said suddenly worried.

"Whose fault is that. You've been here two weeks and haven't let me sleep at all!" Hinata declared before turning red again.

Gaara laughed, "Fine, fine. I won't come over tonight." He said before heading towards the door.

"Wait!" Hinata said grabbing his arm, "I have to go check on Tenten."

"So go." He said raising a nonexistent eyebrow.

"But I just wanted to say, that I want you to come over tonight." Hinata whispered still red. Gaara laughed gave her a quick kiss and left.

"I'll see you tonight." He said. Hinata giggled waited a few minutes after he left and went to Tenten's room.

"Tenten? Tenten?"

"Hmmm?" Tenten opened her eyes stretching happily, feeling the best she'd felt in weeks. "Neji, is that you?" She looked up to meet to violet eyes. "Oh, hey Hinata" Tenten tried to hide her disappointment and failed.

"I know I know, Neji's waiting in the hall. You passed out you were a bit anemic is all. So you two can head back and discuss things." She smiled shyly and hurried out.

Just a moment later Neji was at Tenten's side. "You need to take better care of yourself," He said before she could even say hello.

"I love you" Tenten said instead.

Neji looked taken aback for a moment but then smiled as well, "I love you too." He then leaned down and kissed her, "Marry me."

Kira had been sitting in the hall for several minutes after her and Itachi's little discussion, and she just couldn't seem to move. It was only when she heard Kisame's whistling from down the hall that she quickly forced herself to walk into her bedroom and collapsed on her bed, the happiest she'd ever been in her life. She was so happy she completely ignored the voice's warning in her head,

Enjoy it while it lasts child.
