Kakuzu ate too many cupcakes the night before and he was currently laying on the couch in pain. He kept whining about how strawberry flavor was still stuck in his mouth. Kisame and Zetsu were starting their morning slow with coffee and the daily paper. Hidan was still pissed about the whole strawberry cupcake thing and so he was still in bed avoiding the stupid Kakuzu. Tobi was very content snipping the little strings off the tea bags in the kitchen. Itachi would probably kill him for that later. Itachi hated it when the strings were missing on the tea bags.

At another apartment, Marisol had just opened her sleepy eyes.

"Good morning, baby." She said happily wrapping her arms around Deidara. Deidara didn't really say anything that was comprehendible he just wrapped her up in his arms and refused to let her go.

"I had fun last night, yeah." He finally whispered to her.

"Me too!" Marisol said already gitty. "You know what, I know my roommates are here….but I really don't care how jealous they get…I'm going to kiss you until you make me moan." Marisol told him. Deidara truly had no trouble resisting her that morning. It was only a matter of time until Marisol started screaming Deidara's name and her roommates would grit their teeth in jealousy. As for our other happy couple?

"Oh my god, Itachi! It was such a good idea to come to breakfast here, yeah." Dana beamed as she and Itachi were overlooking the mountainous range before then as they awaited their waiter.

"Yeah, I heard this lodge had excellent breakfast so I called before we got here. So baby, are you sore from last night?" Itachi asked her through dark seductive eyes.

"Oh god, Itachi I swear…" Dana paused and got very serious. "Like, the way your hair fell in my face and stuff, yeah. Oh god, I could so tell you used that new Paul Mitchell straightening cream because it smelled like so amazing, yeah. And the way you made me scream when you shoved your…."

"Hi! How are you two today!" Thank god Dana was interrupted by the waiter at the lodge. "Can I start you two off with a beverage this morning?"

"I would like to have an espresso double shot." Itachi said.

"Cappucino, no cream, foam only, yeah." Dana said. And with their drink orders the waiter took off.

"I'm really glad we got a room here for the weekend." Itachi told Dana.

"Me too, yeah. I mean we couldn't have done what we did in a public Jacuzzi, yeah!" Dana said with shining eyes. Itachi smiled a moment.

"You're right, I never thought of that."

Back at our favorite apartment….Hidan had finally finished cramming all his deserts into various places so the kitchen wouldn't look like a bakery had exploded. However, he had stuck the 4 tiered chocolate wedding cake on top of the washer. It hadn't yet been planned how they would do any laundry with a cake in the way.

"Hey, check out my new ring tone! It's that Pussycat Dolls song about the buttons." Sasori said.

"Sasori, you shouldn't get ring tones that you aren't even sure what the names are." Zetsu said.

"What? I know the name it's that song about…you know loosening my buttons." Zetsu rolled his eyes. He wasn't going to argue with Sasori over such a trivial matter.

"I'm going to take all of these Seinfeld DVD's back to the video rental place. Does anyone need anything while I'm out?" Kisame asked.

"Oh! Oh! Oh! Kisame! I need stamps!" Tobi beamed.

"Tobi, why do you always need stamps every time we go out?"

"I mail things to 'the leader'." Tobi answered.

"Whatever." Kisame picked up all the DVD's and mumbled to himself. "Someday we'll discover that Tobi's a true evil genius mastermind and he'll make Itachi look like a Sesame Street character." And Kisame left. The apartment was actually very calm that morning. Well, at least it was calm until Deidara came falling through the door. He literally stumbled through the door and was now leaning up against the door breathing heavily. No one said anything at first. Deidara dropped his overnight bag on the floor beside him.

"Deidara, your skin is really pale and blotchy right now. Is his something we might as well not know about?" Sasori asked. Deidara didn't say anything for a moment.

"So did you run over here, seriously?" Hidan asked. Still no response.

"Deidara what the fuck is wrong with you!" Sasori demanded.

"MY GIRLFRIEND IS SO HOT, YEAH! OH MY GOD…I need to lay down, I just need to lay down, yeah. Just need to get off my feet before I collapse, yeah. Going to lay down, yeah." Deidara kept talking as he slowly walked down the hall and closed his bedroom door behind him.

"Well, I think it's no secret what Deidara's been doing for the past 24 hours." Sasori said spitefully.

"Dude, he left his clothes unpacked in his bag right there by the couch…Deidara never does that!" Kisame said pausing for a moment. "That girl must be an absolute wild piece of…"

"You know Kisame don't even finish that, I think we get the idea." Zetsu remarked.

"I swear I think that's the first time I've ever seen Deidara's hair so…messy." Sasori had just realized. Needless to say, no one saw Deidara for 6 more hours. However, by 8:00 that evening….Itachi came barreling through the door.

"Hey, how was your trip!?" Itachi didn't answer at first. He looked around with his piles of luggage surrounding him. "where's Deidara."

"He's been asleep for the past six hours, seriously. I would love to know exactly what he did last night." Hidan said.

"Okay, good, now I can REALLY tell you how my trip was! God, Dana is so amazingly, INCREDIBLY…." Itachi was interrupted by a still exhausted Deidara.

"Oh my god, you are like so back, yeah. You really need to come with me and let me tell you about my last 24 hours, yeah. Oh my god, what's with all the baked stuff in the utility room, yeah? Is that a chocolate wedding cake? I want some, yeah!" Deidara said getting a fork out of the kitchen drawer.

"Well, I want some too. Come on Deidara we'll close the door and I'll tell you what an amazing lover your sister is." Itachi said dropping his bags and heading for the cake that Hidan had won.

"I want to come too!" Kakuzu whined.

"Kakuzu! There is absolutely nothing you could contribute to their conversation that would be worth while, god!" Hidan yelled at him.

"But I want to eat the cake with them!" Kakuzu whined some more.

"You know what let him come, the minute me or Deidara start talking about a woman's anatomy he'll be running back out here screaming." Itachi said.

Well, it had been a great Valentine's Day after all. It seemed that everyone had spent it exactly as they wanted it and now life was back to normal….although it was filled with cake…

Sorry it took me so long to finish this. I've been sick. Just to let you know the next adventure with our favorite criminal organization will be rather short, because I'm making plans for a very large adventure. Up next: Akatsuki Job Interview. Look for it soon!
