Chapter 1

. . . . . . .

This is my first time writing a h/c, also my first time writing a story in 1st person, so sorry if I mess up at any point; constructive criticism is welcome. Sorry if it seems like the POV switches too often. I'm also working on lengthening out my chapters, so this story will probably only be a few chapters long. And at times I might forget to put un at the end of Deidara's sentences so just tell me if I do that. The idea for this story was given to me by ilovemyboys, so thanks. :)

Also, any ideas for a different title? This one lacks creativity.

Disclaimer: I own nothing

Enjoy the story. ^_^

EDIT: I was rereading this story and I noticed so many mistakes in grammar in spelling, or some parts just don't seem to flow, so now I'm going back and fixing them. ^_^ Also, I had a few issues trying to redownload everything so I had to completely delete and then repost all of the chapters…

Deidara's POV

Danna and I were walking back to the hideout from yet another scroll retrieval mission. Every time we came back to the base, Leader-sama would give us another mission. And each time the location would be farther away than the last. Not to mention the fact I was with one of the most boring and emotionless people ever. *sigh*

"Hey, Sasori-no-danna un," I said to get his attention.

"What is it brat?"

"Why do you travel around in that puppet un,"

"Haven't we already had this conversation before?"

"No un," I said, although I knew we had already talked about this. But hey, I was bored.

"It conceals my identity and helps me reserve chakra."

"More like being lazy un," I mumbled under my breath, receiving a glare from my danna.

"When will we reach the base un?" I asked.

"In an hour," he said, walking faster. If I didn't know better, I would have thought he was trying to leave me behind. I attempted to make conversation again but he just continued to ignore me.

"I swear un, talking to you is like talking to wood," I said exasperated.

"I am wood," he said, only adding to my annoyance. *sigh*

I glanced up at the sky to notice gray clouds slowly beginning to form. I hope leader-sama lets us take a break before sending us off on another mission. I really did need a break to find more clay and to replenish my chakra. I still had some clay, but it was always good to have extra in case of an attack. Especially if the break is only a small one and then we have to go do something else for leader sama.

I glanced up as we arrived at a large cave with an equally large boulder in front of it. Sasori danna walked up to it and preformed some hand seals, causing the large rock to slide over. We walked inside to the Akatsuki base's living room area.

"Hey," Kisame, who was on the couch, greeted.

"Hey un," I answered back, following my danna down the hallway to leader-sama's office. He knocked on the door and we waited until a 'come in' was heard from inside the room.

"Did you get the scroll?" he asked as we walked through the door.

"Yes sir," Sasori said, handing him said object.

"Good, I have another mission for you. You are to leave in an hour," our leader said monotonously. What!? I screamed inside my head, we just got back and it's already past noon!

"You are to retrieve a kinjutsu scroll from the Land of Snow. It should be sealed away in a cave somewhere in the forest area. You are dismissed," he said, signaling us to leave with a wave of his hand.

Great, that's at least a 3 days trip, I thought bitterly. Sasori danna and I walked to our room to prepare for the mission. I went over to my side of the room and began stuffing clothes into a bag angrily. I didn't even care what I was packing at the moment; I was too annoyed with leader-sama. He didn't even give us time to rest from long mission we just completed; where Sasori-no-danna insisted we only stopped twice a day. Unlike him I'm not a puppet, I can't just walk for weeks on end without rest, but he never noticed that.

"Are you ready brat," I hear him ask from the other side of the room.

"Yeah un," I mumbled grumpily, slinging my bag over my shoulder. Sasori danna raised an eyebrow at my attitude but said nothing.

"Alright, let's go," he said, walking out of the room with me following behind him.

"You guys are going already?" Kisame asked, still on the couch, as we walked through the living room. Neither of us said anything as we walked out of the room. I didn't want to be mean to the shark man, but I was still really angry with our leader and didn't really want to talk to anyone. We exited the base and danna closed the boulder behind us. Once it was shut, he turned and we left for the Land of Snow. Yippee…

Sasori's POV

I don't know what was wrong with the brat. Right after we left leader-sama's office he got all moody. It's probably just hormones, I concluded, rolling my eyes slightly. I could hear him muttering to himself as he walked behind me.

"Hey brat," I said to get his attention.

"What?" he growled angrily. Definitely hormones…

"We'll be stopping in a few hours for the night," I notified him.

"Whatever," he said, still with an attitude. The brat was beginning to get on my nerves already. What did I do to make him so moody and disrespectful? He had better be more respectful by tomorrow. I glanced up at the sound of thunder, to see dark gray clouds blanketing the sky. Just great, the rain would rust up my joints again. I had just finished getting all the rust off only to have it come back. We continued to walk until rain began to drizzle on us through the trees. It was already dark and I had decided it was time to stop for the night.

"Hey brat," I said turning around. He answered me with a glare, which I returned.

"We'll be stopping here for the night," I said sitting down and leaning against a tree. He silently walked over and leaned on a tree next to me.

. . . . . . .

I woke up to the sound of thunder and noticed that the rain was falling heavily. I glanced up at the sky and noticed that it was still dark out.

"Hey brat, wake up, we need to find better shelter to wait out the storm," I said as I stood up. I was about to leave when I noticed that he still hadn't gotten up. I knelt down in front of him, ready to shake him awake when I noticed something. He was shivering and his teeth were chattering. This rain must have been getting to him, I thought.

"Brat, wake up," I said nudging his shoulder. He opened his eyes to glare at me, still shivering slightly.

"What un?" he snapped.

"We need to find better shelter to wait out the storm," I said, narrowing my eyes at his attitude. He sighed and stood up next to me. I stood back up and we began walking in search of a cave, or something similar, to spend the night in. After a few minutes of walking I spotted what we were looking for, and just in time. As we ran for the cave the rain began to pour down even harder.

Once we got in, the blonde walked over leaned against one of the cave's walls and went back to sleep while I stayed up to work on one of my puppets. I had already gotten the sleep I needed to replenish my chakra.

The rain was relentless and it was really beginning to grate on my nerves. I sighed in annoyance and noticed that my partner was shivering again. It must have been the wet clothes, but things like that didn't bother me. I tried to ignore him at first and continued to work on my puppet, but it was beginning to get hard; his teeth were chattering which was preventing me from concentrating. Sighing, I got up and pulled a thick wool blanket out of my bag. How come I was the only one who was actually ever prepared for a situation like this? I thought dryly. I walked over to the blonde and draped the blanket over him. Shortly afterwards he stopped shivering and relaxed, so I got back to working on my puppets. Even the rain was finally beginning to let up a little.

Deidara's POV

I cracked my eyes open only to have sunlight shine in them. I squinted and sat up while rubbing at my eyes, a blanket falling off of me. When did this get on me? I wondered. Must have been Sasori danna; I guess he does care…

"Get up brat, we're leaving," he said grabbing the blanket and shoving it into his bag.

I looked over at him before doing as he said and walking out of the cave after him. Thanks to this delay we probably wouldn't stop again until we got to the Land of Snow.

. . . . . . .

I was right, much to my chagrin. And I was completely exhausted; I don't even know how I'm still walking. I was half asleep and didn't even notice it when Sasori danna stopped until he grabbed the back of my cloak, stopping me.

"I told you to stop, didn't you sense the shinobi approaching?" he asked, glaring at me. Of course I didn't, we've been searching for that scroll for a day now and still haven't rested since the cave back in Amegakure.

Now I had to fight, just wonderful. At that moment about ten ANBU jumped out from the trees, effectively surrounding us in two separate circles.

"You take those five and I'll get these," Sasori danna said jumping out of the circle he was in. I nodded in response and did the same. I shoved my hands into my clay pouches; I was running low since Sasori-no-danna didn't let me stop to make more on the way.

I guess I'll have to stick with smaller techniques. My hand mouths spit out the clay and I began to mold some spiders. While I was still working, two ANBU came running at me with katanas. I jumped out of the way then threw my now finished spiders on them.

"Katsu!" I shouted, causing my little creations to become art and effectively defeat the two ANBU. This seemed to make the other three angry, as they came charging at me creating shadow clones as they ran. I decided to buy some time to make more sculptures by running into the nearby forest. Dodging their attacks, I ran past them into the thick trees. They chased after me, throwing several kunai and shuriken. I thought I had dodged them until I suddenly felt a sharp pain on my left shoulder. I turned my head to see that one of the ANBU had got me with a kunai.

The other one began to do several hand seals but nothing seemed to have happened. It was then that I noticed it was beginning to snow heavily and the wind was picking up. He had cast some jutsu to cause a snowstorm! I reached one hand into my clay pouch and began to work on more clay spiders and grabbed a kunai with the other. I fought with the ANBU closest to me then remembered, I had three following me. There were only two here right now. I cursed under my breath as I suddenly sensed the hidden third one behind me. I tried to jump out of the way but was still hit by a hard kick to my back. I gasped in pain as I slammed into a tree and fell off of the branch I was on to the ground below. As the three jumped down at me I sat up and flung my clay spiders on them.

"Katsu!" I shouted, effectively defeating two more of the ANBU and knocking the third one back; only one more to go. I reached down into my clay pouch to make even more spiders my eyes widening when noticed I was out of clay. Cursing my luck I pulled out two kunai, one in each hand.

The last ANBU jumped down swinging his sword at me. I blocked it and before slashing at his side with my one of my kunai, but he dodged. I threw the other kunai at his head which he also dodged. But before he could react, I ran up and stabbed him in the chest, finally defeating the last ANBU. Now all I have to do is find Sasori-no-danna.

I began walking towards where I thought the forest edge was, starting to feel kind of dizzy. It must be the blood loss or exhaustion, I told myself, grabbing my shoulder where it was stabbed. I don't know how long I had been walking; everything had become a blur as the snow storm continued to rage on. Strange, I thought defeating the ANBU should have stopped the jutsu. As I walked, I suddenly I tripped over a root that was protruding from the ground and fell face first into the snow. I tried to push myself up, my shoulder crying out in protest from the effort. Failing back onto the ground, I began to slip into unconsciousness. All I could see was white until that became black and then, nothing

What do you think? Hate? Love? Like? Please comment and tell me what you think, I will try to fix any problems.

This is actually probably the longest chapter I have ever written for something, yet it still feels so short. I will try to make the next chapter just as long or longer.
