Artists' Perspective [Deidara x Reader]

Art Project-Chapter 19

(Y/n pov)

It was later in the afternoon of the shopping day when I remembered what I had told Deidara. 

"Hey, you know how I told you we could do an art project?" I say.

"Yeah what about it-un?" Deidara says.

"Let me show you something" I say standing up. 

I dragged him into my room and he sat down on my bed. I pulled my sketchbook out of my desk drawer. I sat next to Deidara and opened my sketchbook to the one of the pages.

"So the other day I was drawing this" I say.

 I  show him a picture of himself but cover his face with my hand.

"Then I remembered that neko exists" I say moving my hand. 

It was a neko Deidara that I had drawn.

"That is amazing!"Deidara laughs "One question why were you drawing me in the first place. Not that I mind or anything-un" 

"Um....... not relevant" I say turning the page to reveal a neko Itachi and Kisame.

"There's more-un?!" He said laughing. 

"Oh yeah" I say showing him another page with neko Sasori, Hidan and Konan.

"I love it! You're so talented, Y/n-un" Deidara says adoringly.

"Thank you. It means a lot" I say smiling.

We sat there in awkward silence.

"What is this feeling?! I think I love him! But why he's one of my best friends?!" I yell in my head.  "He probably doesn't think of me that way! I shouldn't say anything or risk hurting our friendship" 

I felt Deidara's arm wrap around my shoulder. I tensed up at this action not knowing how to react.

"I'm so glad to have met you-un" Deidara says.

"I am too" I say relaxing into him.

"That reminds me I have something for you-un"Deidara says. 

He reached into his pocket. 

"Here, I made it and it made me think of you-un" He said extending his hand. 

I reached out my hand and he dropped a clay lightning bolt necklace. 

"Really?! Thanks!" I say excitedly, I clasped it around my neck and smiled. "How's it look?!" 

"Awesome! I made it remember-un" Deidara says arrogantly. 

"Uh-huh" I say sarcastically.

"EVERYONE!" Pain yells from the kitchen.
