Warriors Of Peace [Akatsuki x Reader]

You Like Them?

Pein

It had been a little longer than a month since I first came to the base. I had gotten used to Pein and his tendencies after working with him most days. Currently, I was sitting in his office, since he requested assistance with filing documents. Becoming bored, I sat on the door, leaning back and zoning out. I was admiring Pein's features, my eyes lingering on his odd piercings. I knew they were somehow connected to the Rinnegan, but I didn't know the details. 

Pein brought me back to reality when he cleared his throat. "(Y/n), why are you staring at me?" He asked, glancing at me before returning to his paperwork. 

"Huh? Oh, oh sorry! I zoned out!" I sheepishly confessed, blushing and fidgeting with a few papers. 

"Well, get back to work." Pein ordered. I apologized again and continued filing. I couldn't help but steal glances at Pein while I worked. Most people found his piercings to be scary or intimidating, but I liked them. He looks so interesting.. And badass! 

That's when I noticed that my face was burning due to blushing and my heart was fluttering. Do... Do I like him!? I might have a crush on my leader...

Konan

Konan was in the living room of the base, folding origami flowers. I was admiring her skill when she invited me to join her.

"I've never done origami before." I admitted, lightly blushing at Konan's gentle smile. She didn't smile often, but it was a beautiful sight when she did. 

"It's okay, I can teach you." Konan replied, handing me colored paper.

Several crumpled papers and irritated groans later and I was thoroughly frustrated with my inability to fold paper. 

"How are you so good at this!?" I yelled. Konan chuckled before once again giving me step by step instructions for making a crane. Unfortunately, I once again failed, practically pulling a wad of my hair out as I complained. My skin tingled when I suddenly felt soft fingers maneuvering my hands. Blushing, I watched as Konan directed my hands and made me fold my first successful crane. I thanked her, then mimicked the movements, finally creating my own. Jumping with glee, I blushed as Konan laughed at my antics.

Why do I feel like this? Could it be that I.. Have a crush on her?

Itachi

The base had a room that resembled a library, filled with ancient scrolls and books about various materials. I entered, searching for a scroll that would help me learn a new jutsu. Once I found it, I made my way towards the exit, softly humming to myself. Noticing a light glowing on the other side of a bookcase, I peeked around to find a lamp on at a desk. The red velvet chair was gently pulled back, allowing someone to sit behind the desk. That someone happened to be Itachi. Resting my chin on the shelf, I became entranced as I watched the man read a book bound in black leather.

"(Y/n), you can have a seat if you'd like." Itachi offered, keeping his attention on the book. 

"Oh! Yeah, okay.." I awkwardly mumbled after getting caught. Blushing slightly, I took a seat across from Itachi and started studying my scroll. I found myself stealing glances at Itachi more and more, to the point that I was flat out staring at him.

Itachi sighed, but still didn't look up from his book. "(Y/n), is there something I can help you with?" He asked. 

"Hmm..? Wha- No, no. I'm fine. Sorry.." I quickly apologized, forcing my attention back on the scroll. I could feel my face burning as I heard Itachi chuckle while he stood up.
