Deidara buried his head in his arms and began to cry again. Sasori's mind was racing. Hidan? He had never thought that the guy would stoop that low. Raping and mutilating someone who probably had no idea what he was doing. Deidara probably thought that Hidan was going to kill him. He wanted to stop Deidara crying. The very sound was pouring with grief, making even Sasori's cold heart ache. He touched Deidara's hand softly, withdrawing it almost immediately when Deidara shrunk away in fear.
"You're cold. We should be getting back."
Sasori got up and began to walk out of the cave. He wasn't expecting Deidara to follow, but a small shuffling alerted him to the trembling figure walking behind him.
They soon got back to the clearing where Deidara was the other night. Sasori walked relatively quickly, and Deidara didn't want to get left behind. Deidara looked in his pockets. It was gone. His key. The tiny one, to his room. it must have dropped out.
"Deidara. What's wrong?"
He shook his head, rummaging through his pockets once more, muttering the word 'key' to himself.
"You've lost your key?" Sasori asked. A small, involuntary sniff told him he was right. "That's alright. You can stay in my room until you get a new one."
Deidara looked up. Stay in Danna's room? He couldn't possibly...but he had no other option. He hung his head.
"Thank you, Sasori no Danna."
Sasori led him in.
"You can sleep on the couch. I hope you don't mind. my room is full of puppets."
Deidara shook his head. "You're too good to me."

Deidara remained cold and silent for the rest od the day, but at least he didn't shrink away when Sasori brushed against him. And he wouldn't let him take a look at the injuries Hidan had inflicted upon him. When Deidara took a shower, he could see the amount of blood coming out of the drain. He could hear him whimpering in pain as the hot water touched his skin. Sasori wanted to stop his pain. But he couldn't.
