I watched the familiar trees and houses go by as I watched out the window of Itachis car. I wonder what would happen if we were dating and I was going to visit his family.

I wonder what it would be like to be introduced to them as his boyfriend.

I sighed even I haven't told my parents mostly because I am unsure of who I am I like Itachi but I'm sure I could find the opposite sex attractive too.

"What's wrong?" Itachi asked me. I looked at him and stared at his face as he looked at the road. Not much concentration going on but definitely something happening in his head.

"Nothing" I smiled as best as I could I don't feel uncomfortable or out of place with him and I wonder if him doing this means he likes me at least a little.

"Itachi why are you bringing me here?"

His eyes never left the road "You said you wanted to go"

"And I do want to go there but.... we're not even friends" I rubbed my hands together and crossed my legs maybe I shouldn't have asked.

"I suppose you're right. I guess the only solution is us being friends" he smiled his dark eyes seeming a little brighter.

I couldn't help but laugh I mean if we're going to be friends then that's good and bad. I'll think about the good stuff though.

"Friends with the guy with friends that bully me" I shook my head as I listened to myself yeah "this isn't going to turn out good"

Itachi looked st me and raised an eyebrow "Why do you like art so much?"

I sat up and looked at him "I love art. I don't like it. I love it. I don't think I'll ever get tired of working on art, looking at art or anything. The artists are inspiring and the art work it just" I happily sighed "it makes me feel like someone understands me and I love that"

Itachi didn't say much after that we talked a little and listened to music I quietly sang along to some songs I liked. When we got to museum I got out and ran straight inside I didn't even wait for Itachi.

"Deidara!" One of the workers shouted and waved at me I smiled back and made my way over.

"Hi! Any new displays?" I eagerly asked of course I have to wait for Itachi to come in here but whatever.

"There are two when you walk around you'll see them they're in the left wing though." I thanked her and watched as her red hair moved when she walked. She was an old lady very nice I believe she's married to Mr. Senjus brother.

I turned around and moved my eyes around not many people were here I spotted Itsachi's hair and ran over to him.

"Why do you walk so slow?" I wonder where we should go first.

"Why did you run in here like someone was chasing you?" He hissed back Itachi gets mad a lot well maybe not mad but definitely annoyed.

"Let's just look around there are two new art displays your eyes have the pleasure of seeing" I smiled and walked towards the left wing I'll look at the new pieces and then show Itachi some of my favorites.

We walked next to each other and talked this was so nice and peaceful. Itachi actually knew a few of the pieces and that just made me like him even more.

I realized just how much we have in common. We like art, we like a lot of the same music, he reads a lot more than me but that's fine. I draw more than him. Well it may not be a lot in common but its a start.

He maybe smarter but I'm better at art.

He understands what I'm saying and how I feel when I look at an art piece. This isn't something you make up, he's talking to me like an actual human like I'm not some punching bag or someone people make fun of.

I'm me and he gets that. He's nice to me. He makes me smile. We're friends.

"Friends" I whispered to myself. I couldn't help but smile I wonder what this means in school I mean we don't really have a lot of classes together so we only see each other in the morning at lunch and during art.

"Do you have a problem with us being friends?"

"Not at all" I smiled at him but he was looking else where, I saw a small smile form on his face.

How wonderful a new friend. Let's see how this plays out I've always been told I trust too easily. Itachi feels different he gives me this reassurance just by standing here, next to me not ashamed of how different I am.

"Want to see my art?" I blurted out not even thinking. I'm supposed to be home right now.

"Right now?" He raised his eyebrow. I took out my phone and looked at the messages.

Mom: Assuming you're home you probably saw we're not. We're at a business meeting Naruto is at Kibas be home later. Eat dinner.

I smiled this is just the luck I thought I didn't have. I got lucky.

"I mean I guess" I grinned and grabbed his hand "but first I want to show you my favorite art piece"

He didn't pull his hand away he just calmly walked with me. Maybe he wants to be here with me. Maybe he really does.

We walked upstairs to the clay sculptures there are so many different art pieces in this museum but the sculptures have always stood out to me. Maybe because I love clay.

I walked over to the giant sculpture it was where I got the inspiration of little birds. This was a huge type of bird dragon thing. I don't know what it is but it fly's with its wings.

"This is your favorite piece?" He looked so confused.

"Yeah! Isn't it amazing. It's cool and all made out of clay imagine doing all of this!" I danced around the giant bird.

"Why is it your favorite?"

I stared at it and then at Itachi. "It has something, just look at the other pieces in here"

Itachi looked around there were some pretty amazing ones like clay statues and small buildings.

"But this is the biggest, it's the only one with wings, it's so" I looked at him and held his gaze my heart did a little stutter "different."

"Like you? Different from everyone else in the school" I guess.

I slowly nodded, "You don't get it because you're not different"

He shook his head "I am different. I'm nothing like these people we go to school with"

"I don't even belong in this school, I could've easily graduated in 8th grade" he's a genius. The most misunderstood people out there always are.

"You're smart." I agreed. "You're well beyond your years" I took a deep breath. No wonder he can read situations so well he's so smart.

"So are you. Look at how you think, what do you want to do with your art Deidara"

My face plastered with a huge grin "I want to change the world with it"

Itachi nodded his head, "Can I see your other art work?"

I excitedly nodded my head. He's going to see my art he's going to see the most important thing to me.

My art.
