An Artist's Love

It had been two weeks since I had started going out with Deidara. I was living in the Akatsuki’s base since Pein had warned me that living in my sand village would only cause complications. I didn’t blame him one bit. Everyone saw me differently there, even Temari, Kankuro and Gaara. People would whisper about me going out with a pyrotechnic that would blow the village up if I broke up with him. Their words hurt and I eventually left for good. I haven’t betrayed my village but I haven’t stayed there either. My parents didn’t understand why I had to leave. They shot Deidara dirty looks, saying he was taking me away from my home. Exasperated I told them it was my choice to leave. The looks they gave me made feel awful, so I ran away from my parents without a second glance back. I feel better now that I’ve joined the Akatsuki but I miss my old friends like crazy. The good thing is I like a lot of the members here. They’re all nice surprisingly for bad guys who are supposed to be S ranked criminals. Tobi has to be the sweetest. He always gets on Deidara’s nerves though. I guess it was because their personalities clashed or something. I don’t know for sure.
