Sakura was sitting with the Akatsuki in her home in Suna, she was truly happy that she could see them but was worried about Gaara. She looked to Tobi, she felt him squeeze her arm, "Yes Tobi?"
Everybody looked over at the two, "Is Saku-chan alright? Saku-chan looks sad."
Sakura looked at Tobi and gave a small smile, "I'm fine."
"Is Saku-chan not happy to see us?"
Sakura shook her head, "No, I am happy to see you guys, it's just that I'm worried about Gaara. He didn't seem happy when he saw you guys and I really don't want him and you guys to fight. I care about him, and I care about you guys." She said looking down at her hands.
"Don't worry about him Sakura, he understands why we're here, I had a talk with him." Sakura looked up and saw Pein walking to her.
"Pein..."
He sat in front of her and grabbed her hand, "It's alright Sakura, I promise, everything will be fine."
Sakura shook her head, "That's a lie, nothing will ever be fine or good, life isn't that great." She said holding his hand.
Tobi hugged Sakura, "Saku-chan, Tobi wants to talk with Saku-chan alone."
Sakura looked to Tobi and nodded her head, "Alright come on, you guys make your self's comfortable." Sakura got up and lead Tobi to her room, she closed the door behind him and felt arms wrap around her waist and a darker, lower, heavier voice whisper in her ear.
"Talk to me."
She turned and looked into Madara's red eyes, "About what?"
"Anything, tell me what's bothering you, what can I do to help you?"
Sakura smiled at him and put her hands on his cheeks, "You're different from what everyone says about you. You're sweet, kind, caring, you're not evil, mean, and cold hearted." She moved her left hand and ran it through his hair.
"Sakura, tell me what's bothering you." He said pulling her to her bed and sitting her in his lap.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and laid her head down on his shoulder. "I don't want the Akatsuki and the sand village to fight, I really don't."
Madara nodded his head, "We aren't going to fight, don't worry." He ran his hand through her hair and made small circles on her lower back. He felt her relax in his arms and lean into his body; he looked down at her and saw her staring at him. "What?"
"Why hide? Why not expose yourself?"
"I like watching things unfold, although Pein does know about me, and so does Konan, she doesn't talk to me though, she hates me a lot."
"Why?"
"I know of her secret."
Sakura's eyes widened, "Secret? What secret?"
Madara chuckled as Sakura sat straighter in his lap, "You can't tell anyone, especially Konan that I told you." He watched as she nodded her head and smiled, "Alright, well one day, me and Pein agreed on a mission that Konan could do since during around that time she was getting really moody and other stuff. Well, I walked into her room after a few nocks and saw her and this other man naked, having sex. After he walked out and told me of their relationship, their dating, whenever she said that she was going out to shopping, she was actually meeting up with him going on dates and has some fun. I confronted her and she told me to keep my mouth shut, I did and since she would glare at me and watch me closely since. I have a feeling though that if he asks her to marry, then she might be leaving the Akatsuki, she never really liked being in the group, she only did it because Pein, in his own way, begged her to stay, he didn't like the idea of having a group of S-rank criminals all being guys and no girls. So she stayed, but I have a feeling that now that you're in the Akatsuki she will be leaving soon." Madara said looking around her room.
"What, she's going to leave me alone with you guys?" Sakura asked pouting a little.
"What do you not like us?"
"It's not that, it's just that, then I'll be the only girl in Akatsuki then, then I'll go crazy. That's not right." Sakura said crossing her arms.
Madara smirked, "Well just remember, I didn't tell you."
Sakura nodded her head, "Got it, a little birdy told me, not Madara."
"That's right, so feel better?"
"Yeah, I guess so, Madara, thank you." Sakura said hugging him and putting her head in the crook of his neck.
Madara smiled, "Anytime Saku-chan." He hugged her tightly and laid his head on hers.
They heard knocking at the door, "Sakura!! You alright in their?!"
Sakura got up while Madara put his mask on, she opened the door, "Yes, I'm fine, what's up?"
"You are alone with Tobi; I have a right to wonder if you're alright, un." Deidei said walking in and glaring at Tobi/Madara.
"Well, did you want something or are you being mean to Tobi?" Sakura asked a playful glint in her emerald eyes.
Deidei spun and looked at Sakura, his lone blue eye wide, "What?! I'm not mean to him, he just annoys the hell out of me, UN!!"
Sakura raised an eye brow, "But he didn't do anything to you, yet. You just walked in and glared at him for no reason, now Deidei, that's not very nice." She said cocking a hip and crossing her arms.
Deidei's mouth opened and he looked at her, then he pouted, "Sakura, you spoil Tobi, it's not far, I always get punched by you but then you go and hug Tobi, shoving his face in your breasts."
Sakura blushed as she looked from Deidei to Tobi then back, "I do not."
"Do too, all the time, it hurts you know."
Sakura shook her head, "Deidei, I don't mean to show more attention to Tobi, it's just that everyone always picks on him, I know how it feels to get picked on, I for one don't like it. I was just making sure he knows that I care about him and that... that... Damnit Deidei... I was only trying to be nice." She said looking down feeling bad and embarrassed that she was unknowingly shoving Madara's face in her breasts.
Deidei smiled as he watched Sakura blush more and look down at her feet, "Well you know Sakura, a kiss on the lips always heals a wound."
Sakura snapped her head up and starred wide eyed at Deidei, her mouth opened as what he had just done clicked in her mind. "You said all of that on purpose, you were planning on me kissing you because I felt bad and embarrassed! You were trying to take advantage of my feelings."
Deidei smirked and shoved his hands in his pockets, "Almost worked huh?"
Sakura's whole face grew red, she clenched her hands into fists and punched him in the face sending him out the window screaming, "ASSHOLE!!!!!"
