Electra woke up the next morning with her body aching and sore, she didn't realize he missed her that much. She groggily felt around for Itachi's body coming up short, then she heard the commotion outside the room. With her wobbly legs she got up and grabbed clothes from her backpack, settling on loose shorts and a sports bra before heading out to the common area where he was.

"I trust her, Kisame." She heard Itachi say gruffly. Sleep was thick in his tone of voice, he must've gotten woken up by Kisame a little bit ago.

"You don't trust me, dear Kisame?" She said seductively as she ran her fingers down his wrapped blade.

"Darling Electra, oh how I missed your annoying voice." He said sarcastically.

"Be nice." Itachi warned, shooting him a glare.

"Do you even know why she came back? What if she's a spy?!" Kisame said trying to worm inside Itachi's mind, but he should know better. Itachi is the one who manipulates minds best.

"Oh yes, Kisame, my goal was to infiltrate the Akatsuki, figure out your secrets like how you're all hunting down the jinchurikis and then kill you! You got me!" She said as she made her way into the kitchen for cereal.

"You told her?!" He whisper yelled to Itachi. He just shrugged and walked after her with Kisame in tow.

"Everyone in the hidden leaf already knows that thanks to Deidara and Sasori, you idiot." She said annoyed.

"You mean when you killed Sasori?" He asked amused.

"He was trying to kill me first! Besides it's not like we got along, yes his death was extremely tragic and scarred me beyond belief, but even so he never had any regard for other lives. Not even his own." She spoke, she reached for the cereal but stopped herself as she came to the deduction. "If you know I was there when he was killed... that means that clay eating bastard is still alive." She said glaring at Kisame.

"Well— it's none of your business!" He said crossing his arms making a face.

"She was always smarter than you, Kisame." Itachi said with a laugh.

"It is my business. I'm joining back, and I expect my outfit to still be here." She said sternly, making a bowl of cereal and sitting on the counter to eat it.

"Itachi wouldn't let me burn it." Kisame said plainly, grumbling to himself as he left the kitchen.

"So you meant what you said?" Itachi asked softly, walking to stand in between her legs.

"Yes. Why would I lie?" She asked rhetorically, continuing to eat.

"Why did you leave the hidden leaf? Did something happen?" He asked, his fingers playing with the hem of her shorts.

"Kakashi broke it off. I found out from Orochimaru while he was torturing me with experiments that Tsunade isn't my biological sister, your snitch brother got me impaled by a sword and I almost died-"

"Hold on. He broke up with you? What for?" Itachi asked confused.

"Because I spent an entire day allowing myself to grieve for a future without you. So if you still have doubts... there's nothing more I can say." She said with a sigh, setting the bowl in the sink next to her.

"I'm sorry, flower. I really am." He said softly, pulling something out of his pocket and pulling it over her head. She looked down to see the necklace that was in her pocket, he'd checked through her things upon Kisame's request and he found it.

"At least I get to wear it now. Without shame." She said, slumping forward and laying against his chest as he rubbed her head lovingly. She pulled away knowing what needed to be done, someone she needed to talk to. "Itachi?" She said softly.
