Akatsuki's Possession ✗

part 10. new friends? frenemies?

"Shut up, sushi. I just got done dealing with one fishy cunt, don't start now. Bitch, this is your stop. Science." He halted before the classroom door.

"Hm, Suigetsu is still bothering you?" The tall guy asked Hidan in a monotone, though his gaze was directed at me, scanning me over. Okay, creep.

"Yup. Go deal with him, I'm tired of his shit." Hidan stretched his arms before giving me a solid pat on the back, causing me to trip forward almost. "Anyways, see you both around. Kakuzu is gonna be testing my sanity in Economics today." With that, he wandered off and mingled into the other students.

"So. You're his new.. ya know, bitch?" The guy seemed to wince slightly as he hesitated the curse word out, seeming uncomfortable with it.

"You don't have to force yourself. And no, he just shows me the way around sometimes, he's pretty chill. Besides.." I finally glanced up at the scary man before me. "I don't even think he's into girls."

We both walked into class, students already present and on their desks, chatting up in the teachers absence. "Wanna be lab partners?" He suddenly asked me and I nodded before I could comprehend his words fully.

I took the seat next to him, getting my books out as he had already took his out. Quick guy.

"I'm Naoyuki. What's your name?" I decided to introduce myself in the spare time.

"Kisame Hoshigaki." Is all he replied, staring into nothing.

Silence. The teacher was late.

"So, why does Deidara hate you?" Glancing nervously at Kisame I calmed down a little. I mean, it wasn't like he could do something in the middle of class, and to be honest he didn't even look mad or, angry, just curious and maybe even a little well... friendly?

"Pardon?" I blinked a few times.

"Ah, so you do speak, and so politely too. Deidara, what'd you do to piss him off so much?" This surprised me, I hadn't expected him to be curious.

"It's... well it's kind of a long story," he nodded towards the empty desk.

"Well, um... we met in a cafe, oh no, but uhm.. it was dark outside and..."

"Stop." I glanced up at his blunt response, worried I'd said something wrong.

"Stop? What?"

"I don't care about the details, just sum it up,"

"Well... I umm..." I was nervous under his scrutiny, and really just waiting for the teacher to come in so I wouldn't have to answer. "You see... I thought that... but.. Umm.... It was..."

"Just get to the point," I could hear annoyance in his tone, so I just blurted out the truth.

"It's not my fault... I thought... was a..." I mumbled the last part, and Kisame leaned in closer.

"I'm sorry, what? Speak up, louder."

"I said, I thought... was..a..." again my voice strayed too embarrassed to admit it.

"Oh just spit it out all ready,"

"I thought he was a girl!" Kisame stared at me for a second before taking in what I said, and instead of getting angry or offended, he just burst out into laughter, and boy could he laugh. His voice echoed around the room, and soon everyone was staring at us, or more accurately at him, as tears came to his eyes and he tried to catch his breath. He'd pause and take a gulp of air before breaking down into hysterics again.

"I'm so done, you're one hell of a chick, probably also the first one to call him a woman to his face." Kisame snickered, trying to catch his breath.

"I'll be your teacher, you can refer to me as Orochimaru-sama, or Orochimaru-sensei. I demand respect and obedience in this classroom, science is a difficult and complicated topic that requires dedication and effort. I do not tolerate slackers, disruptions, or outburst. My classroom is a place for knowledge, not for petty socializing, now- let's get into it."
The dark haired individual who walked in had interrupted the moment, turning out to be the teacher. Everything about him seemed almost creepy and borderline unsettling.

Kisame and I shrugged, before doing as told. We both exchanged other information like he was a Senior and how I should have lunch with him if I didn't have friends yet.

Class had only started and it was already a bore as Orochimaru went on bragging about snakes this, snakes that.

I nearly banged my head on the desk and waited for this class to be done already, this wasn't my idea of college clearly. Ugh.
