Akatsuki Oneshots (Based on A Taster of Modern Living and Akatsuki's Shadow)

Repair

"Tobi, stay awake please" you hummed with a wary voice. You hoisted him back up your body, carrying the wounded Tobi on your back. His arms slung around your neck loosely and his head rested on your shoulder covering his exposed face. He grumbled little slurs out that were inaudible to you. The clanking of his cracked mask in his hoodie's pocket behind you reminds you of his little incident today.

You sighed out, "You're a lovable idiot. You know that? Emphasis on the idiot right now.."

"I'm sorry.." he pained out.

"Don't apologise to me, you have to convince Deidara to fix your mask. You also need to let someone look at your head if you won't let me take you to see a doctor"

You managed to get to your front door, panting in exhaustion for carrying him. No way could he walk, you were certain he has a concussion. Tobi pressed the doorbell as your hands were occupied with his legs. Itachi answers. He looks back and forth between you and Tobi, he moved to the side and lets you take the last few steps into the house.

"Tobi, I'm going to put you down now okay?" He pulls the drawstrings to his hood to cover himself as you sink to your knees, lean forward and roll Tobi ever so gently onto the sofa in the living room. You grab a pillow and place it under his head, steal a blanket from the basket by the side and give him in to cover his face.
"I'm just gonna get something to clean you up"

He gurgles out a thank you and groans at the pain on his head.

Deidara scoots closer to him, "What the hell did you do?"

Tobi doesn't respond but reveals his broken mask. You return with an icepack and something to clean his head. "We went to the nature reserve. There are a few animals there and Tobi thought he could pet a baby deer." You kept your voice low for his aching head but sounded slightly scolding. It was a silly move, even for Tobi.

"A little bambi can't do something like that." Kakuzu stated from the desk in the room.

"Oh no, not the bambi.. You'd think it's mother, but the father got there first." You pulled the blanket down to reveal his forehead and dab the blood away.

Deidara hissed, "Antlers?"

"Antlers" you confirmed. "I yelled for him to get out the way but by the time he turned around it was a little too late"

Kakuzu sighs, intervening when seeing he needs a few stitches. Once done you put the ice pack gently on his forehead, telling him to hold there.

"This doesn't look like a little hit either" Itachi says looming over to inspect the damage.

"Nope. He went for Tobi a few times, even bated him around in between the antlers. Tobi can run fast but...not as fast as it did" you explain with arm movement demonstrations.

You have to admit although it's one of the biggest secrets of the Akatsuki, no one tried to look at Tobi's face at this moment. He thanked Kakuzu under his breath and held onto his mask, "[Y/N]-chan is it bad?" he moped.

"Nothing that a little clay won't fix?" you say hoping Deidara would offer his services.

"Tch, no way. Tobi deserves this. Hm"

"Oh come on" you pout at him.

"Why should I after he buried all the clay I bought the other day? That was good quality stuff!"

"But we were playing scavenger hunt, senpai" he moans out.

"With my damn - - " he begins to yell and aims to flick Tobi in the head but you slap his hand back and scold the pair, "You're like children! Partners my ass, jeez"

Tobi eventually was aided to move into the bedroom for some rest where he spent the rest of the day and evening sleeping in your bed. With no help from Deidara and lack of superglue, you had no way of fixing his beaten up mask. Problem was that you didn't have all the pieces either.

"Hey, I sorted Tobi out a mask" you hear Hidan say from the hallway walking into the kitchen as you jigsaw the pieces up. Your eyes lit up at his voice, "Really?" you say hopeful that Hidan has actually saved the day. However, he is already laughing before he even reached you which is giving you the confirmation that he's joking around. Of course, as he turns the corner he's got a paper bag in hand with a single eyehole. The wrong side as well. The back having a middle finger drawn on it. After another 30 minutes or so, you gave up for the rest of the evening and headed for bed. You very quietly opened the door to your room, seeing Tobi curled up on the edge of your bed with the covers cocooning him. Edging to the wardrobe, you grab your pjs and set up a mini bed on the floor. As your stealing a pillow or two from his fort, his grumbling sleepy voice arises, "What are you doing?"

You whisper back, "I'm going to sleep. What's wrong? Do you need anything?"

"For [Y/N]-chan to sleep comfortably in her own bed."

You sigh out a little chuckle, defeated by the known pout in his voice that you would even consider sleeping on the floor. "Alright you win"

"Tobi only wins when he gets cuddles"

You chuckle at the cheekiness. "Big or little?" you ask as you climb in.

"Tobi is the little spoon~ Tobi needs taken care of"

He shuffles into a comfier position as you set yourself behind him. Bringing your arm around him, he immediately intertwines your fingers with his and brings it to his chest. Your face gets pressed into the back of his shoulder blade, warming into the embrace. "I'll fix your mask for you tomorrow, okay?" He replies with his immediately light snoring

**

Tobi woke up alone in the afternoon. He must of slept in, he thought. Still feeling a bit sore and worse for wear he chose to get up anyway and try to go about his normal day, just a bit more quietly and slowly. He went into the bathroom to get himself ready for the day with a shower.

You got up early this morning with an idea in mind and searched everywhere to get Tobi's mask complete. After 6 hours of hunting and achieving your goal, you ran back home. "TOBIIIIIII" you squealed in excitement. You ran around until you banged on the bathroom door, "Tobi Tobi Tobi Tobi, I fixed your mask!!" you were so happy with yourself. Tobi made a little chirp from the other side of the door, filled with eagerness and curiosity. His arm reached out as the steam from the shower seeped out the doorway. You waited anxiously for a sound anything to say that you did well, that he likes his mask.

"[Y/N]-chan did you do this?" his voice not letting on emotion or thoughts.

You nodded with a long "Yeeeees"

The door opens as he sweeps back his wet hair, grinning behind the mask. "[Y/N]-chan its so cool! It gives Tobi a mysterious look! What cha think?"

You smiled widely that he liked it. The Kintsugi method was tedious but great fun. The gold seam shined against the orange and gave it such a unique look. He hugs you strongly, "Thank you [Y/N]-chan"

"SENPAI!!! TOBI FEELS BETTER NOW, LET'S PLAY SCAV- - -"

"NO!!"
