looks outside for flying pigs nope, I still don't own Naruto.
Ino was having a very good dream about chocolate covered French fries (A/N yes I like French fries dipped in chocolate sauce, sue me if you like, I could care less) when she felt a familiar chakra source. Her eyes shot open and she looked around, sensing someone in the room. She pulled a kunai out from under her pillow and looked around. She sighed when she realized it was just her blonde friend.
"Deidara, you scared the crap out of me," Ino said, sighing and putting the kunai down before going to give him a hug.
"I was testing your reflexes, un," he said, smirking.
"Gee, I'm flattered," she said sarcastically. He rolled his eyes and picked up her bags.
"Are you ready to leave, un?" he asked her. She nodded and grabbed her phone and charger. She smiled at him and they walked out of her house, Deidara going into a henge of a villager. They happily walked out of Konoha, Deidara having gotten quite used to how easy it was to sneak by the supposedly 'sharp' ANBU guards. Deidara and Ino conversed as they walked to the heart of the forest where Deidara had left his clay bird.
The two blondes made it to the Akatsuki base very quickly, seeing as they flew the entire time and did not take breaks. It only took them about two hours before Deidara finally landed the giant bird and helped Ino carry her things inside. She took them to Itachi's room and thanked Deidara before going to greet all of her friends. She walked into the living area and was immediately glomped by an over-excited Tobi.
"Ino-chan! Tobi missed his Ino-chan very much and hopes his Ino-chan has missed him, too! Tobi has kept his promise and been a good boy, too, Ino-chan!" he said, squeezing her tightly.
"Cough….Tobi….I….can't breathe….." Ino somehow managed to choke out, slightly returning Tobi's hug before trying to push him off. He hugged her for a second longer and then stood up, saying something about going to get something for her before skipping off happily. She stood up, shaking her head, and looked around. There she saw Kakuzu and Hidan fighting over something she probably didn't care about on the couch, Deidara and Sasori starting up a game of chess she knew would probably take a while, and Pein and Konan eating each other's face off in the corner. She shuddered, deciding she didn't want to say anything in case Pein kicked her out or something. She sighed and went to watch Deidara and Sasori, giving Sasori a small one-armed hug before sitting on the floor to watch them play.
"Deidara, when is Itachi-kun going to come back?" she asked after a while of conversing and friendly teasing between the three.
"I think he should be coming in a little bit…" Sasori answered, taking out yet another one of Deidara's pieces.
"Hm," she mumbled in response, sighing and resting her head in her palm. Tobi walked into the living room and looked around, running towards Ino once he spotted her. He plopped himself down next to her, looking around expectantly.
"What is it, un?" Deidara asked him.
"When Ino-chan is here she always plays with Tobi but she is playing with you guys so Tobi is going to be a good boy and wait," Tobi answered matter-of-factualy. Ino snorted, trying to suppress her laughter and Deidara and Sasori rolled their eyes and continued to play.
"Tobi, it's alright. I'm not playing with them," Ino replied after calming down.
"So can Ino-chan play with Tobi?" He asked hopefully. She chuckled a little bit and nodded.
"Yes, I'll play with you Tobi. What would you like to play?" she asked him, turning so that she was facing him. Even though she couldn't see him behind that orange swirly mask, she knew his face lit up with excitement.
A/N Okay, so I know it's horribly short and not very good, but I was reading the reviews and I felt so horrible that I hadn't updated in so long that I figured you guys would want something rather than nothing, am I right? So yeah, I've been really busy lately with all this testing going on and then I have a competition in May and so I've been practicing like a bitch and I can't sleep anymore because I'm so worried and I'm always thinking about something, so please please forgive me if it is a while until I update, but I will not abandon my stories, I promise you that.
And ah yes, this chapter is dedicated to my wonderfully loyal reviewers:
