Yosh! I got my third designated story down! Now all I have to do is finish yesterday's designated third one! Boom! I am on a roll! Pairing is Sasori/OC.

Summary: A childhood friend of Sasori returns in his time of need, saving him from death, giving him a living body…

Okay this story starts with a flashback from before Sasori turned himself into a puppet, just telling you so you don't get confused like I know I would.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.

It was a cool night in Suna. It was quiet and the only light was provided by a lamppost that shined down on the two figures standing in the street. The two were the only ones out on the street at this time of night.

A male and a female stood arm-length apart, deep in conversation. The male, a fifteen year old redhead, was trying to talk the girl out of something.

"Sasori," the girl said. "I can't stay here. Why don't you understand-"

"So you're going to leave me," he accused her. "You're going to leave me just like my parents did!"

"Sasori, I'm not going to leave you," she told him.

"But you're leaving-"

"I'll always be with you," she told him, gently kissing his lips. "In your heart." She put something around his neck.

"A necklace?" he asked, confused.

"It's a vial," she told him. "It has a small amount of my blood in it. If you ever need me, like really need me, break the vial, and I'll be there."

She then kissed his forehead and began walking down the road. The boy—though still in shock—raced after her, stopping her with his chakra strings. "Wait," he begged her. "Don't leave yet."

He wrapped his arms around her slender frame, holding her close. Her breath caught in her throat, never knowing Sasori to be one to willingly touch people. She didn't hesitate to hug him back. "I love you, Sasori. Remember that," she said as she pulled away.

"One minute," he told her, leaning forward and pressing his lips to hers, forcefully. When he broke the kiss, his face was stoic. "I expect you to come back one day."

"I expect you to be here when I come back," she kissed his forehead once more.

"I will…" those two words echoed around in the girl's head…

She bolted upright in the bed that used to belong to Sasori. "But you weren't," she whispered. "You weren't here when I came back." She couldn't help the tears that fell freely down her face.

"Perhaps, Chastity, you kept him waiting too long," came Chiyo's voice from the doorway of Sasori's old room.

"What do you mean?" Chastity asked. "I promised to come back. He promised to be here-"

"Maybe he became impatient, as you and I both know he does," she said. "And he got tired of waiting for you. It's funny how you didn't age in the ten years you were gone," she commented.

"It's my mother's blood," she replied. "I aged fast, but it slowed when I reached the physical appearance of a ten year old, then I began to age normally. When my mother died, and told me to drink her blood—five years later—I no longer aged."

"So how old are you really?" the woman asked the girl sitting in the place of her grandson.

"Twenty-two," she replied, looking down sadly.

"Sasori will be thirty-six this year," Chiyo shook her head.

Chastity nodded sadly at the old lady. "I feel as though this is all my fault," she commented.

"How so, dear?"

"If I hadn't left, he might not have left either," she shook my head. "I have caused both you and him extreme pain and sadness. I humbly apologize."

"Dear, he would've left anyway," she waved away the younger girl's concern. "Whether you were here or not, he would've left. Though you leaving did stimulate him to leave sooner than expected. It just hurt him to stay here, with all the memories of his parents who are gone and then you who willingly left him."

"I still apologize," she said.

"Oh, dear, before I forget," Chiyo interrupted Chastity's apology. "I have to leave the village to help save the Kazekage tomorrow with some Konoha nin. Would you be okay staying here alone?"

"If you don't mind, I would enjoy being there to help you, protect you," Chastity said. "It's the least I could do."

"Do whatever pleases you, dear," the old woman laughed.

"It would please me to be with you and keep you save," she nodded.

"Get some sleep then. We're heading out bright and early."

"Yes, ma'am."
