"Deidara, could you put those in the puppet section, hm?"

"I'll do it. This brat will probably drop them."

Sasori took the wooden arms from Deidara with a smirk, ignoring the obvious glare being sent in his direction, before heading a few aisles down to put them away. Deidara pouted slightly as I looked down at him from my position on the ladder, setting up the canvases on the top.

"Deimara, where do you want the water colours?" Konan questioned, poking her head into the aisle.

"In the paint isle, there should be a label that says water colours. Under that."

"What about this fucking shit?"

"Hidan, call my art fucking shit one more time. I dare you, hm."

"Fucki-"

"Hidan, don't even think about it." Konan growled.

Konan turned away towards the paint aisle, dragging the silver-haired bastard after her. I giggled tauntingly at the sight before beginning to climb down the ladder, Deidara looking at me worriedly from the floor. I backed up when reaching the ground and looked upwards towards the canvases, nodding in satisfaction at the display.

A soft humming caused me to turn my head, watching as Sasori was gently rocking Deikara back and forth in his arms. He simply stared back up at Sasori as the redhead continued to hum. I moved away from Deidara and went to my son, Sasori gently putting him in my arms. The tiny redhead looked at the two of us before his eyes moved over to me, and his lips formed a smile.

"Sasori, he smiled at me! His first smile, hm!" I exclaimed.

"Who wouldn't smile at a brat like you?" The redhead teased.

"You two make me sick." Deidara grumbled.

"Don't be rude, Nii-san."

"Yeah, whatever, un."

Deikara yawned tiredly before his eyes slowly began to close. I leaned into Sasori with a yawn of my own, and my head rested on his shoulder. An arm wrapped around my waist just as Konan and Hidan approached. Konan squealed at the sight of us and Hidan seemed to be staring at Deikara with some sort of excitement. They'd seemed to have worked out the baby issue now, meaning they were doing just fine.

"I can't believe we've actually done this, un." Deidara spoke.

"Yeah. It seems like fucking yesterday we were back at the base with the Akatsuki bastards."

"Still, I think we made the right choice." Konan piped in.

"I agree, hm. Especially now with Deikara, and a little one on the way for you two." I nodded.

"I never would of thought that I'd end up becoming human again and settling down. But hell, I'm glad it happened, brat."

"Me too, Danna, hm."

"I'm not, un."

"Shut up, Deidara." Myself, Sasori, Konan and Hidan said together.

Deidara through his arms up in surrender and took a step back, not wanting to start a fight with all four of us. But as I reached out my hand, the blonde skipped over and stood on my other side to join our little family cuddle. I grinned up at Deidara and he returned it before throwing and arm around myself an Sasori. The redhead sighed in annoyance but allowed his arm to remain there.

"I'm not glad it happened, un. But I'm glad that it happened. You get what I'm saying, un?"

"Ew, Nii-san, gross! Why would you say that?"

"Brat, our sexual life has nothing to do with you. Stay out of it."

"Danna!"

Both elder males looked to me, and I could feel my cheeks burning. Hidan burst into laughter and Konan into giggles, before the rest of us slowly joined in. Unfortunately, the louder volume woke Deikara up and little cries began escaping his lips. I went to shush him but Sasori beat me to it, taking the little redhead from my arms. He rocked Deidara gently back and forth and began to softly hum like before.

"I'll put the brat to bed."

Sasori exited the main part of the store and went to the back. We'd set up somewhat of a living space, as we knew that we'd likely spend a lot of our time here and we'd need a place for Deikara and Konan and Hidan's future child while we worked. Of course someone would have to take care of them, but this way that person would still be here, and it would be easier to switch off when needed and there was backup if something went wrong.

"Alright, we've still got a few things to do, un."

"Before we fucking continue, Sasori has a fucking surprise for you."

"A surprise, hm?"

"Yep! We'll show you when he comes down, un." Deidara agreed with Hidan.

After a couple minutes, Sasori returned and they all began to lead me outside. We exited the shop and I looked to the others in confusion. But then they stopped and turned around, looking over at the shop. I shrugged rather confused, before turning and following their gaze towards the shop. And what I saw was absolutely stunning. They'd put up a sign with a store name on it, but not the store name we'd original agreed on.

It was in large, light-up letters and stretched across the store above the door. The letters were a bright and vibrant yellow, easily sticking out amongst the street. People were looking at the sign as they passed, seeming rather interested, before they continued on their way. Looking to the others, they were all looking at me with some sort of a smirk on each of their faces.

"You guys... named the store after me, hm?"

"You've put so much work into this, and have been excited about it since day one. We were talking about it, and Danna suggested the name. We all agreed, un." Deidara replied.

"R-Really? You're all okay with it?"

"Of course we are, brat. So, welcome to Deimara's."

My arms tightly wrapped around my brother, lover and friends, and the five of us shared an awkward group hug in the exact middle of the street. People walked around us and, although some stared, I could hear some people saying little things like it was cute or sweet. They were little things, but they made me happy, and I was glad to hear them. And the closer we got to opening time, the less I could wait.

Seven days went by of setting up and hanging fliers and getting word about our shop out there. Each day we got so much closer to our opening, and it grew difficult for me to be patient. But I managed, and finally we were on day eight. Day eight, otherwise known as opening day. Everything was perfectly in position, and everyone was ready for our first day of business after so much advertising and putting ourselves out there.

We'd definitely generated a lot of hype.

As I twisted the key, the door unlocked and I pushed them open to reveal the large crowd of people waiting for us outside. Konan approached from behind me and the two of us opened the doors up wide, smiling and waving to the villagers. Some waved back, some smiled, some spoke a greeting.

"Hello, everyone. Thanks so much for coming!" Konan exclaimed.

"Welcome to Deimara's, hm!"

THE END

--------------------------

Hey guys, I'd like to thank you all SO MUCH for sticking with this story. I've completely fallen in love with it, and I've had so much fun creating it. Don't be sad that it's over, because we're coming back with a sequel!

It won't be coming out right away, as it will take place in Boruto and I want to wait for more episodes to be out, but It's coming.

Also, can't get enough of Deimara and Deidara? You'll be happy to know that Deimara is getting a new story in the future, but not a Sasori pairing. Instead, she will be paired with the one and only...

Itachi Uchiha!

Stay tuned for more details!
