Sweet Thing

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto I wish I did though.


I paced up and down my living room going around the coffee table trying to avoid running into the television. Itachi was going to be here any minute I could barely stand it. I sat on the cream colored couch put my feet on the table and turned on the television to calm my nerves. I don't think it was working.

My thoughts kept running around about what Itachi said about forgetting the kiss ever happened and being stuck together. I flipped through the channels without really seeing what was on. I talked to him last night it feels like ages ago though. I could still feel the pressure of his lips against mine. I pressed my finger tips against my lips reveling in the remembered sensation.

"Argh, what the hell am I suppose to do?" I yelled standing up from the couch. I stomped around the room trying to get rid of my frustration. The door bell rang during my rampage.

My heart pounded against my chest. I took in a shaky breath, headed for the door, and answered it. Itachi looked amazing. His long black hair was pulled back in his usual low ponytail. He wore tight fitting jeans, my mouth started to water at the sight of them hugging his hips. If he really wanted me to stop liking him and forget, why is he torturing me? His black shirt clung to his body not leaving much to the imagination. I stared wide eyed at the Itachi. He never wears things like this, so why now? This must be a test to see if I'll cave. I'll pass the test. I won't give into my urges. I scoffed inwardly yeah right with him dressed like that he'll be lucky if I don't throw him down on the ground and ravish him right now.

Itachi watched me as my eyes hungrily rove over his body. "Are you going to let me in?" he asked. I stepped aside not trusting my voice not to crack. He scanned what he could see of my house. Moving further into the entrance way he slipped off his shoes. I stood there dumbly not sure what to do next. "Where do we study?" Itachi moved further into the house.

I saw the growing space between us I moved closer to him. He didn't seem to notice. I shook my head and walked through the living room. I sat down at the large wooden table, my feet started to freeze under the cold tile. Gooseflesh covered my arms as I grabbed my backpack that I had put in the dining room before Itachi had come. Itachi sat down next to me. I reached down to get my English book. I didn't want to look at him or I might do something stupid. I grabbed my book and I put it on the table. Neither of us spoke as we sat at the table.

I stared at the knot in the wood listening to Itachi's breathing, it was slow and even lulling me into a sleep like state. A book slammed on the table jolting me awake. A smirk curved Itachi's perfectly plump lips. My eyes almost popped out of my head.

"What did you do that for?" I asked sitting straighter in my seat.

"You were falling asleep. I had to wake you some how." Itachi grabbed my book and set it between us.

"Hey where's your book?" I tilted my head to the side.

"At home. Now we have to go over poetry."

"Do we have to?"

"Yes, now read this one." Itachi pointed the one of the poems on the page. I sighed and started to read it to myself. "And don't forget to do the questions."

"What are you going to do?" I pouted. I grabbed my notebook and pen.

"I'm going to make sure you do it right. Now get to work." He kept an eye on me as I read the poem. I wanted to squirm under his watchful gaze, but I didn't give in.

Itachi helped me work out the poem. I'm sad to say that I had a lot of trouble with it, but Itachi was right at my side helping me. A few hours passed by without ever being noticed.

"I better get going." Itachi glanced at his watch.

"Okay, see you Monday," I said getting up from my seat walking to the door. I turned around when I didn't hear him coming. "Aren't you coming?"

Itachi lifted his gaze to meet mine. I was dumbfounded. Did he want to stay? I was just doing what he asked me to do. He got up and made his way to me. I walked the rest of the way to the door and opened it for him. Night was descending upon the sky. It was a purple gray color with stars beginning to peek through the curtain of the night. I admired the beauty of it. I knew Itachi was next to me when I could feel his body heat. I stole a glance through my bangs. He stared out into the darkness. I cleared my throat he looked over at me. He raised an eyebrow and I smiled.

"I guess, I'll see you later." Itachi put one foot outside. My heart crashed against my chest. I didn't want him to go.

I reached out grabbed his hand and pulled him back into the house.

"Deidara?" Itachi asked. I let go of his hand like I had been scalded.

I had to think fast. What could I say to get out of this? "Uh, I just wanted to know if we were going to study tomorrow." I said feeling like a total idiot. Anyone could tell I was just trying to get him to stay.

"No. Even I need a day off once in a while." The corners of Itachi's mouth turned up slightly. "I thought you were trying to kick me out," Itachi said getting closer to me. My breathing increased. I unconsciously took a step back.

"Who was trying to kick you out? You were the one who said that you had to go."

"That's right, but I thought you liked me," Itachi said with a straight face.

Is he serious? My face flamed up. I can't believe he's saying this right now. The more I thought it about the more it made sense. Itachi is always being told that he's liked, but no one ever showed him. He's trying to see what I'll do or maybe I'm reading too much into this. Itachi could be messing with me.

"I can't believe you brought that up." I slapped a hand against my forehead, I was grinning though.

"You're so odd." Itachi shook head.

"Me? I'm not the one who does nothing, but study."

"True, I suppose."

"You can stay longer if you want to," I said trying to sound casual.

"To study more?"

"Hell no! We could play video games." I closed the door and ushered him to my room.

"I never played before," Itachi said as I opened the door to my room. I gasped when I saw my clothes peppered around the room. "When was the last time you cleaned?" Itachi smiled at the mess before him.

My bed covers were one big ball of never ending blankets. I had tossed and turned all night. I woke up tangled in my sheets. I ran over to my bed. I did my best to straighten out of the black comforter.

"Make yourself at home." Itachi eyed my room. I sighed. "You know you can sit anywhere, nothings going to bite you."

"I know that," Itachi glared. He chose the edge of my bed. Whoa! It's almost my dream come true. Now all I need to do is get him naked and we're good to go. But that's definitely not going to happen, so I better just set up my play station two. I grabbed my two controllers and handed one to Itachi. He turned it over in his hand like he was in wonder of it. I suppressed the laughter that threatening to burst from me.

"Just relax." I thought it was kind of cute the way he stared at the controller like it was a foreign object.

I got the play station ready and turned it on. It turns out Itachi is a fast a learner. He ended up beating me at everything we played. I wanted to bang my head against the wall. I thought I finally had something on him, apparently not.

"Jeez, I don't think I can take another ass whooping." I fell on bed taking note that Itachi was right next to me.

"Who would've known it was so easy to learn?"

"Easy? Boy I chose the wrong guy to play against, but it was fun I'll give you that."

"This time I better go," Itachi said glancing at the clock.

"Ah, but it's only ten." I sat up and sat pretzel style.

Itachi's eyes wandered over to me. My stomach turned upside down when his eyes caught mine.

"You want to me stay that much?" Itachi's eyes were still locked on mine.

"Well, yeah." I thought about how that sounded then threw my hands up in the air. "No, you're right. Time for you to go." I don't want him to get the wrong impression.

Itachi walked out of my room without another words. I scrambled off my bed. Successfully getting off it without tripping over my own two feet.

"Wait! Where are you going?" I caught up to him at the door.

"I'm going home," Itachi said while opening the door. Sasori stood right in front of us with his hand raised ready to knock.

"Hey," I said looking between Itachi and Sasori. Well, this is weird.
