Chapter 21: Thinking of You

Sasuke POV
It's been a week since I left the village. A week since I last saw her. A week since I last held her in my embrace. For some reason, Tsuki's been on my mind lately for the past few days. I still remember the look in her eyes when she looked up at me. A look of happiness, trust, and slight sadness. Her scent was so intoxicating that I still remember it, the smell of flowers.

I wonder where she went because she never told me anything, but it doesn't matter right? I mean I'm supposed to cut all ties with the village, but she's not a part of the village anymore.
I still remember the day I first met her at the dock. She was so happy, but she had this cautious look around her. Even though she seemed happy on the outside, I spotted sadness and hurt in her eyes. She was the first girl to ever talk to me without trying to own me like all those annoying pests of fangirls.

A knock interrupts my thoughts. I let out a sigh of annoyance and walk over to open the door only to meet Kabuto on the other side.

"Lord Orochimaru wants to see you" the medic nin says with slight annoyance.

"Hn" I grunt.

He always needs to see me, but it's for training. So it's not that bad.

-_-_-_-

Tsuki POV
It's been a week filled with annoying episodes. Hidan is still mad at me, but he tries to hit on me. Which is completely gross. Deidara and Sasori keep fighting about what's 'real' art. It's either, Art is a Bang or Art is Eternal. But to my opinion they're both wrong. Everyone has an opinion of art and they get defensive when they get told differently. So these arguments are utterly annoying. Tobi, I can't describe him. His act is so annoying so whenever I see him, I just want to smash his head against the wall so he can finally shut up. Zetsu, he scares me slightly.....okay a lot. I mean he showed up in my assigned room on the first night trying to eat me. I get that he's a cannibal, but he can't go around trying eat people who just arrived.

I guess the only ones that are okay and tolerable are Kisame, Itachi, Kakuzu, Konan, and Leader-sama.

Other than that, the place itself is pleasant. The sound of rain against my window always draws me to sleep. The way everyone keeps to themselves, not like the Leaf Village where everyone wants to be a part of your life. Here I could be myself, not some picture perfect girl who tries to win everyone. I could be my cold, antisocial, and taunting self as long as I do whatever mission they give me.

But there's one thing, or rather person I miss. It's him. I guess Cerridwen was right about me liking him. I still can't get that hug out of my head. The moment was both perfect and miscalculated. We were both leaving so we didn't get to stay like that forever, we were on limited time. I just want to drown in those dark pools he has for eyes. I just want him to hold me like the day of our departure. I want to suffocate in his intoxicating scent. I want to hear his voice as he talks to me for an endless amount of time.

Is this how it feels to be in love?

' So you finally admit that you like the Uchiha'

I jump startled, falling to the floor below me as I hear Cerridwen in my head. Groaning, I sit back on my bed.

'Did you really have to do that?' I ask the Goddess in my head.

'Of course, it's always funny to catch you in the act and watch you fall to ground. Its entertaining' she explains.

' So do you?'

'Yes, I like him. You happy now, that you were right about my feelings' I say.

'Yes. Now I don't have to hear endless questions you ask about having feelings towards the Uchiha'

Before I get to retort, she cuts the mental link off, leaving me to myself again. What was the whole point of this, if she just shuts me out.

I wonder if he misses me. Nah, he has other things on his mind besides me. But why can't I stop think of him! Leaning back, I lay on my bed as I look up at the ceiling.

I wish I could just see him, but I don't know where to find him. Anyways, should I even follow these feelings even though my sister likes him. She'll hate me more if she finds out, but she already hates me. I'll just ignore Sakura and follow my feelings.

Getting up from my bed, I walk out of the room with a smile on my face. I turn through the maze like halls and meet the 'living room' which is filled with every member. Ignoring them, I make a direct turn towards the kitchen since I'm hungry.

"Hey bitch, make me a sandwich" Hidan shouts over at me.

"Why don't you come make it yourself you old man. Or are your legs not working?" I insult him.

This is the usual conversation that happens between the two of us. We insult each other until someone gets butt hurt and angry. No one stops it, either they're scared that we'll turn on them or it's entertainment for them to watch.

"What'd you say, you bubblegum bitch! How about instead of insulting me, why don't you take your useless self and make me a sandwich" Hidan retorts.

That kind of stung in the heart to be called useless. It's a name I never grew fond of, but I'm not going to lose to him.

"Why don't you get your stupid God that you freakishly worship to make it for you" I say as I make him seethe in anger.

I guess making fun of his religion is a big No No.

"What!! You can't say that about Jashin, you bitch! Never mind you, you're just an unwanted piece of trash. No one fucking likes you and never fucking will, why do you think they fucking kicked you out of your own God damn village for no reason? Because no one fucking loves you" he insults me.

As he said those words, I realized that it was true. They did kick me out for no reason and it breaks me apart that no one fought for my stay. I bite the inside of my cheek so I could stop the flow of tears that are about to spill. I won't cry in front of them. I won't show them how weak I am. Instead I keep my cool and fight back.

"At least I'm not a perverted old geezer who kills for fun because he has no life as he follows a fake religion" I say with the calmest voice even though I want to run back to my room and cry myself to sleep.

By his reaction I could tell that he sees red. All red as he imagines my guts spilled all over the floor.

"That's it you bitch!!! You're dead! No one, I mean no one disrespects Lord Jashin! I'll show the true meaning of fucking pain! Aaaahhhhh" he screams with anger before he charges at me.

Damn I left all my weapons in the room.

'Cerridwen?'

'Yes. You annoying child'

'A little help, please' I say as I ignore her insult.

'Okay. Repeat what I say. Dead Man's Grip. Now say it'

"Dead Man's Grip" I say as I feel a rush of power envelope me.

In a split second hands shoot out from the ground. They attach themselves to Hidan's legs, making him stop in his tracks. The hands themselves are a sickly pale like a dead persons skin. Traces of dirt and rips of flesh are decorated on the skin. So the dead man of Dead Man's Grip are actual dead people. I guess she's the Goddess of the Underworld for a reason. I look back at the hands and find them gripping Hidan's legs so tightly that the nails are beginning to make Hidan's legs bleed trails of blood.

"What the fuck is this?! Get these hands fucking off me, you bitch!" Hidan exclaims as he freaks out.

"How did you do this" asks another voice.

I turn and find the same cold look of Leader-sama as he asks me of the action I just pulled off.

"Um, Cerridwen just told me to repeat the words she told me, so I did. So this is what happened" I explain myself to him as I gesture to the hands.

"Hmm, very interesting. Have you ever considered to fully controlling Cerridwen? Her power will make you exceptionally strong" Leader-sama explains.

In truth, I have not thought about it. I always thought that she'll be there to help me.

"No, I haven't. Anyways if I did, who would train me?" I say asking no one in particular.

"Well that's easy. Everyone will train you, we'll take shifts everyday" he explains with his stoic face not changing.

"W-

"Get these fucking hands off me. They're cutting off my fucking blood circulation" Hidan shouts cutting me off.

"What? Hidan, I thought you liked your women handsy" Deidara says as he makes the rest of the members snicker.

"Shut the fuck up, you transy" Hidan retorts with obvious anger.

"Tsuki" Leader-sama orders.

"Fine. Release" I say.

Not a second later the hands return back into the ground, making Hidan face plant to the floor as he lost feeling in his legs. As he lays there he glances up at me, shooting daggers in my direction. I guess I made him hate me.

"So when do we start with the training to control Cerridwen" I say as I look back at my silent leader.

"We'll start tomorrow" he says before heading to his office with Konan trailing behind him.

I stand in the room doing nothing as the members go back to what they were doing before. So that makes Deidara and Sasori arguing about art. Itachi reading a book about who knows what, Kisame rebandaging his sword as he watches television. Kakuzu sitting at the table as he counts his bounty money. Zetsu, he just sank into the ground to go somewhere that I don't care. Tobi he's running in circles being his annoying self. And Hidan is still lying on the floor since his legs are useless.

I turn to the kitchen to do what I was originally going to do. I walk into the kitchen and open the refrigerator, I peer inside and find some left over riceballs. So taking them out and reheating them, I suddenly remember that stupid Uchiha.

I reminisce about how he always ate riceballs. God I'm so head over heels with that boy. I keep picturing that stupid smirk he always has plastered on his good looking face.

Why is he on my mind?

Why can't I stop thinking about him?

I just want to repeatedly hit my head against the wall so I could get him out of my head, but at the same time I want him to invade my thoughts.

Again, is this how it feels to be in love.

So irritating yet addictive.

Well that was Chapter 21. I know it's short, but it's all I had. Anyways how did you like Sasuke's POV? Or how he feels about Tsuki? What about Tsuki and Hidan's fight? Or what about how Tsuki can't keep Sasuke off her mind? What are your opinions about SasUki?

Anyways don't forget to
