Chapter 14

Deidara's POV

I Grinned sadly at Sasori, "she's better off with you, you could protect her better than I can." I brushed a piece of hair from Hinata's face.

Sasori shook his head, "No," he said quietly, "She loves you, she only loves me as a sibling." He checked her tempurature again, "Its gone down, but she's not out of the woods yet."

I nodded then looked at Itachi who was sleeping in the chair across the room, "Why did he save her? I thought he hated her."

Sasori shrugged and scratched his head, "I have no clue, maybe when he saw that Hinata would risk herself for the Akatsuki he decided that she wasn't some traitor." He yawned and streached, "I'm going to sleep now, wake me up if anything happens." He then shuffled off into his room.

I looked at Hinata, her face was cut and bruised, sweat plastered her hair to her face, her breathing was shallow and pained. I took my headband off and laid my head on her hand.

"I love you," I whispered as I fell asleep.

Hinata's POV

I opened my eyes slowly, everything still hurt but it was bearable, well, phisycally it was. I started ot shake, he left me, my mind screamed as tears streamed down my face. It was dark in the room, I didn't recognize where I was.

I felt something on my hand, it was warm, human. I thought it was Sasori, I reached my other hand over to touch his head but his hair was long. I reached down to touch his face, he woke up.

"Hinata?" Deidara exclaimed, sitting up and squeezing my hand, "You're awake, I was so are you feeling?" He kissed my forhead.

"Deidara," I said painfully, "You left me... Itachi came to get me... you left..." I shifted painfully to see him better, his eyes were filled with pain.

"I'm sorry," he mumbled, "I didn't know, I thought that you weren't coming back, so I left..." he put his hands on his head,"I'm so sorry Hime, I really am."

"I thought you would come for me," I said staring at him, "Not Itachi, you..." The light came on in the room and I saw that guit ravaged his face.

"Hey brat," Kisame called walking over to where I was laying, "I see that you're awake, how are you."

I grinned at the shark looking missing nin, "I hurt, but I'm OK." Deidara got up and walked off to his room," I stared after him. Kisame came aroung and sat where Deidara was.

"You really shouldn't be that hard on him," he said looking at me.

"He.." I started but he interupted me.

"...left, I know," Kisame rolled his eyes, "But he came back, and he hasn't left your side for the two days you were out." He stood up and walked over to Itachi, "Well, I'm gonna go to get Itachi into bed, see ya," he shook Itachi roughly until he woke up, then the walked down the hall.

"Sasori..." I called weakly, he walked out of his room and sat down next to me with a tired expression on his face.

"You're awake," he said touching my face, "thats good, we didn't know if you were going to make it." He smiled softly.

"Yeah," I said quietly, "Can you take me to Deidara's room?"I blushed sightly, the old me coming out, "I don't want to stay out here by myself."

Sasori nodded and picked me up gently in his arms, he started ot carry me down the hall. " How long was I unconsious?" I asked checking Kisame's story.

Sasori laughed quietly, "About two days. You had a really bad fever and deep cuts everywhere, your fever is gone but the injuries are still there." He opened Deidara's door, he was in he usual spot next to the window. He turned around and looked at us, I smiled apologetically.

"Put me down Sasori," I said still looking at Deidara. He started to protest but I silenced him with a look. Sasori put me on the floor gently and I walked, or rather limped to Deidara. I put my arms around his waist and put my head against his chest, he slowly put his arms around me, I heard Sasori walk out and shut the door.

Tears started to streaming down my face, "I'm sorry," I whispered, he put his arms around me and buried his face in my hair.

"I'm sorry," he said quietly, "I should have come for you. You have no reason to be sorry," he picked me up and put me on his bed, "looks like wheelchair again?" He joked. He laid down next to me, trying not to hurt me, I laid my head on his chest.

"Not funny," I mumbled falling asleep again, "I love you Deidara." I said yawning.

He kissed my forehead as I fell asleep, "I love you too, Hime."

Three months later

"Itachi we have to go!" I called pounding on his door, we were late as it is. HE finally opened the door and walked out.

"Happy?" he grumbled, crossing his arms.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed his arm, "Lets go, Leader said hurry." We started to run down the hall.

"Hinata," he sighed, I grinned back at him.

I opened the door to Leaders office and ran in, everyone else was there and I took my place next to Deidara who took my hand, Itachi took his place against the wall. Deidara kissed my head softly.

"Ok," Leader started, "Since everyone is here we can start," he looked at me and Deidara, "we are here to announce the engagement of Deidara and HInata," Everyone looked at us suprised.

Sasori smiled at me, no jealousy in his eyes, he was truly happy for me, he was the first one I told, he told me that he wasn't mad, instead he said You know you love someone when you can let them go to be happy even when it doesn't include you. I grabbed him and pulled him into an embrace, "It does include you, you make me happy too Sasori."

Deidara put his arms around me, "I love you Hime." He whispered quietly over the clamor of people.

I turned up my face and kissed him, "I love you too." I said and I meant it.
