An Eternal Explosion

N i n e t e e n

Kind of short chapter, sorry about that. It's a bit boring as well, but I'd rather have made it a shorter boring one than drag the boring on and on. The next chapter will start the next mission and stuff. Sorry for the wait, next chapter will be out as soon as possible!

"Deimara, you should be resting." Konan scolded.

My eyes flickered in her direction before turning back towards the cupboard, trying to reach the top shelf. She sighed slightly before coming closer to grab the small cup of instant ramen off the top. I attempted to take it, but she only moved away before beginning to make it up.

"Your fever may be gone by now, Dei, but you've been sick for the past two months. You need to rest."

"I know..." I mumbled, my lips parting in a yawn.

"You've been tired all day, and yesterday. You need to go to bed."

"I...don't want to, hm."

I sat down at the table, resting my forehead on the wood. Another yawn came from me as I simply laid there, making no other movements. My head lifted slightly at the sound of something hitting the table in front of me, only to see a bowl with steam raising from the top.

I took the pair of chopsticks in my hand before beginning to shovel ramen noodles into my mouth. Konan raised an eyebrow at the sight, myself giving her a sheepish smile. Two others entered the room, being Itachi and Kisame. The shark-man cringed as Itachi got out some sushi from the fridge and sat down beside me to eat.

"How are you feeling, Deimara?"

"Horrible, hm."

Kisame sat down across from Itachi, beside Konan, as he munched on a sandwich. My chopsticks moved into the ramen bowl, only to discover a lack of noodles. I used a spoon to slurp up the rest of the soup part before looking to Konan. She only sighed before taking the bowl and filling it up once more.

I began to eat once more the moment she placed the ramen in front of me. The others only sent confused glances in my direction, myself letting out another yawn. My hand moved to my head as a dizzy feeling took over, and I began to feel quite lightheaded.

"Deimara, are you alright?" Itachi questioned.

"I'm just feeling a bit dizzy, hm."

"Hn."

Raising to my feet, three more people entered the kitchen. Pein took his seat at the end of the table, whilst Sasori and Deidara each grabbed something from the fridge before sitting down. Konan placed something in front of Pein and the newcomers each began to have their breakfast.

"How is Deimara's condition?" Pein questioned.

"Not mission ready." Konan replied.

"The brat's almost always sleeping." Sasori joined in.

"And there are certain foods that make her sick, un." Deidara spoke up.

"What foods?" Pein demanded.

"Sushi." Kisame replied.

"Anything that isn't ramen." Itachi corrected.

"I'm standing right here, you know." I mumbled.

"She's eaten nothing but ramen for the past month, and she only drinks water." Konan added.

I put the empty bowl of ramen on the counter before reaching for a glass from the cupboard. I put some water in the glass before taking a small sip of the clear liquid. My eyes then moved to Konan with a slight scowl plastered acoss my face.
