great…time for dr. phil! chuckling, hidan pushed open the door to the theater taiyo was cleaning…well was suppose to be cleaning. “tai?” the boy walked in further, but froze.
Little child, be not afraid
The rain pounds harsh against the glass
Like an unwanted stranger
There is no danger
I am here tonight

the boy sighed and walked up to the small stage where the movie screen fell on. He took a seat a few feet away, listening to the song.

Little child
Be not afraid
Though thunder explodes
And lightning flash
Illuminates your tearstained face
I am here tonight

And someday you'll know
That nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
And forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

Little child
Be not afraid
The storm clouds mask your beloved moon
And its candlelight beams
Still keep pleasant dreams
I am here tonight

Little child
Be not afraid
The wind makes creatures of our trees
And the branches to hands
They're not real, understand
And I am here tonight

And someday you'll know
That nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
And forest and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

For you know, once even I
Was a little child
And I was afraid
But a gentle someone always came
To dry all my tears
Trade sweet sleep the fears
And to give a kiss goodnight

Well, now I am grown
And these days have shown
Rain's a part of how life goes
But it's dark and it's late
So I'll hold you and wait
'til your frightened eyes do close

And I hope that you'll know
That nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
And forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning

Everything's fine in the morning
The rain will be gone in the morning
But I'll still be here in the morning

Hidan sat there for a moment, making sure she was done. the girl sighed, and pulled her legs up to her chest. “tai?” the girl jumped and let out a loud yelp. Hidan jumped forward, and grabbed her wrist before she fell off the stage. “careful!” the girl gulped, then looked up and saw hidan. “w-what are you doing here?!” “listening to you sing” the girl blushed and looked away. “r-raven taught me” “ah…and I remember that song….cho use to sing it to you during a thunderstorm” taiyo gave a soft nod, but her gaze was at her feet. “hey kid, you ok?” he sighed and put a hand on her shoulder. “taiyo, you wasted to much time on that blonde” “t-that’s why you think im sad?” the girl looked up, and hidan could praticly see the tears. “sure…I ahte the fact that he’s out with the girl I hate, but so what? That’s life….b-but that thing that hurt me most is…t-today….is that day…h-he died” “hm?” “r-roji” the girl barely got out the name, before falling against the silver haired boy.   hidan gulped, and looked down a the girl. “taiyo? please don’t cry!” the girl let out a muffled noise, and pulled away form the jashinist. “i-i…..i gotta go!” “wait!” hidan grabbed her arm and hugged her. “taiyo, you do this every year! Once you rember what day it is, you run off!” the girl gently shook him off. “i-I just wanna be alone! Im sorry!” with that, the girl ran from the theater, leaving hidan confused, and worried.

pein was just about to go into the back room th change, when there was a loud yell outside. The boy quickly ran outside, and froze.
Ayame had a man pinned to the hood of his car, his arms pinned to his back. “ayame!” pein ran over and pulled the girl away from the man. “what the hell?” “he kpt hitting o me, then slapped my ass. And just now when I tried to go in, he tried to lift up my dress!” pein raised an eyebrow. “really now?” the boy relised her, and walked over to the man. “hey ass, kept your hands off MY girl” he smirked and lunched a fist in the guys gut, causing him to fall to the ground. Ayame blinked for a moment. MY girl?! pein turned, and wrapped his arms around the girls shoulders, leading her to his car. “come on, lets just go home” the blonde nodded, a blush on her face.
When they got in the car, it was silent for a few mintues. “um…p-pein?” “hm?” the boy looked over at the blonde. “what is it?” “back there….you said MY girl….why?” pein smiled and looked back at the road. “easy…ive been thinking lately, and truth is, even though I hate commitment, I cant stand the thought of someone else taking you. I just cant get rid of those memorys. Im so sorry….but….i love you” he stopped the car, and lend over, catching the girl in a kiss. Caught off balance by the kiss, ayame slipped, and they both crashed onto the passenger seat, pein kneeling over the fallen girl. “I cant help it aya….i NEED to have you as mine, cause I get so angery anytime I see a guy close to you, like itachi…I cant stand how he’s so close to you, I want that to be me!” the blonde blinked, then smiled. “fine by me” she wrapped her arms around the boys neck, and kissed him deeply, which he happily returned.
Till the passenger door opened.
Pein pulled away and looked up, while ayame tilted her head back to see who it was.
“a-ashley?!?!?!?!??!?!”
the said girl and sasori were looking into the car. “wow….um…we should go” sasori gently shut the door, and led ashley away. when they were far enough, both burst out laughing.

Ayame gulped, and looked back at pein, he too was blushing. “well, there wet that moment….oh by the way, we’re infront of your house.” The blonde sighed and watched aspein sat up, then carefully climbed out. “um pein?” “hm?” the girl lend into the car and kissed him. “the only one I want to belong to IS you” with that, the girl left. Pein smirked and started the car.
                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“itachi!” raven called to the bot form across the kitchen, and hurried over to him. ‘your coming over for diner right?” “nah I cant, but tomorrow I am, remember, I still gotta help you study” the boy gave a soft smile, and ruffled the girls hair. She blushed and gave a soft wave, before going into the girls changing room.
itachi was about to go into the biys changing room, when he heard voices
“damn it gaara! I told you NOT to talk about that! If you did, it would have caused problems, and many for you! remember that!” itachi heard a sigh, and it went quite. Itachi sighed and walked into the room. “hey guys”
gaara and konkuro were sitting on the couches. The brunette stood, and walked out of the room. itachi raised an eyebrow, but said nothing. The uchiha rolled his eyes, and went to go get changed.
After the task was done, the boy put his uniform in his locker, and left the shop.
Many thoughts filled his head as he walked to the small hut owned.
“young uchiha come in” the boy was a bit surprised she knew it was him, before he even walked in, but brushed it off.
The boy took a seat, and right away spilled everything.
The woman sat in silence, clinging to every word that came from the boys mouth.
When he finally finished, the woman smiled. “child, its quite simple. Look deep, deep down. Can you really see your self with that girl?” “well…i…uh…” “exactly. You know it shall never be, so why press on? Here, ill give you these words. Try on last time, and if you are reject again, move on. There is another heart that has fallen for you my boy” the owman stood and gently patted his head. “you just have to open those naive  eyes of yours, and see the world for what it is….now hurry home, your parents will worry if your out too late”
Itachi stood, and bowed his head, before hurrying out of the hut.
open my eyes?

cera finally finshed her shift, and just returned home. The girl yawned, and collapsed on the couch. Hidan came in, and sighed. “what?” “I thought you were taiyo” cera sat up and streached. “where is she at?” “I don’t know....thankfully ayame fell asleep so I don’t have to hear her bitching, and so did ravn. That just leaves us. I hope she’s ok
cera sighed and pulled out her phone. “ill call her”
the girl dialed her friend, and waited for an answer. “hello?...deidara? why do you have taiyo’s phone? she left it at work?....um…well…no she’s not home we don’t know where she is….oh could you? thanks” the girl hung up and smiled. “deidara’s gonna look for her.” “hmp” hidan looked down at his feet, then at the girl. “um….so…your and kakuzu going out now?” cera blinked, then shook her head. “no! hat makes yo say that?” “well he’s always fucking kissing you!” cera stared at the boy. “hidan…that’s the first tome you’ve curse all day!” the silver haired boy thought for a moment. “jashin damn it! Im hanging around you fucking woman too damn much” cera sighed and fell back on the couch. “all good things come to an end” hidan walked over and looked down at her. “what about love? Isn’t that a good thing?” cera nodded and looked up at him. “but love ends as well, always does….you should get to sleep” cera sat up, and walked up the stairs to the guest room, that was slowly becoming her room.
on the way, she passed ashley. “hey, kid you better get some rest” the girl blinked and looked up. “um….sure” she stood and threw out eh paper in her hand, before walking back to her bed. “night” “night ash-chan”
                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
after saying goodbye to sakura, deidara went out looking for his lost friend. “where could she have gone?” he sighed and looked around. he had been searching for the last 2 hourse, and nothing.
The blonde walked up to a old store owner, hoping for some luck. “um sir, have you seen a small black haired girl, probely in a red top and black jeans?” the man nodded and deidara let out a sigh of relief. “where did she go?” “across the street, but I don’t know why such a seeet girl wold go there” confused, the boy turned, and his jaw dropped.
The downtown bar.
“thanks you sir” the blonde hurried across the street, just as rain started to come down. “crap un” sighing, he walked inside, looking for the girl.
“hey, arnt you abit young to be in here?” the boy looked up at tall man and sighed. “im here for my friend, nothing more” deidara walked past, and up to the bar. Then he saw her. on the other end, sure enough, was the kumori girl. her head was laying on the bar counter, the bartender laughing and gently patting her head. “come on kid, cheer up! how bad could your da have been?” “ugh” taiyo lifted her head, and shot the man a glare. “you have no idea jeff, so stop petting me” the man chuckled and moved his hand. Taiyo sighed and grabbed the small glass infront of her, taking it in one gulp” the bartender stared at her. “that was strait liquor” “bad day!” he chuckled and shook his ehad. “I shouldn’t even let you sit here, none the less give you drinks” “ya, but Im this places secrecty, so ha” the girl stuck out her tounge, before taking down another glass.
“taiyo!”
deidara walked over and stared at the girl. “taiyo….are you…drunk?” the girl blinked, and let out a small hiccup. Yep, she was drunk. “damn it….come on tai” deidara put the girls arm around his shoulders, and led her outside.
Once they were in the street, deidara led them to a bus stop, setting her on the bench. “hey…why are we here?” “cause un, im taking you home” taiyo giggled and smiled. “your girlfriend will be M-A-D” “don’t have one, oyu know that” taiyo gasped an sat up. “a guy like you? but your so hot!” deidara blinked, he knew too well he was blushing. “i-i..uh…” taiyo giggled again, and lend over, falling against his shoulder. “looks like we’re in the same bout kid, im in love as well” deidara gasped, then looked down at the girl. “with who?” “a beautiful boy….he’s amazing, but the thing is….he’s my close friend…and I don’t want to hurt him by telling him how I feel….plus he’s popular…and someone a great as him would never go out with trash like me….oh well, ill just have to stand on the sidelines, watching my love go one loving another. But….atleast he’s my friend…and he lets me see his art….he’s an amazing artist….he has so much….no wonder everyone wants him….b-but me…I have nothing….n-nothing but a tainted soul” it took deidara a moment to realize she was crying. Before he could say anything, she layed her head on his shoulder, and passed out.
she’s on love with her close friends? well….theres sasori, itachi and hidan….but the only artist is….sasori-danna?!?! the boy blinked, then thught of how long those two have knowen each other, and all the time they spend together. Suddenly, he felt a bit of anger towards the redhead damn it…he has everthing doesn’t he?!...wait…a-am i…jelious? the blonde froze, and looked down at the sleeping girl.
tainted soul?
the boys thoughts ended when the bus drove up. picked up the girl bridal style, deidara carried her on, and set her in his lap. I wonder why she doest just tell him….oh wait…loves another…sakura!...but….does he know that me and her are going out now?.........................damn it! Tomorrows gonna suck!
                                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the next day, was quite odd.
Everyone was a bit ackward.
Itachi was zoned out all day, deidara seemed to have a cloud of gloom over his head, ayame was deep in thought, ashley was unnarutal quite, and taiyo was downright depressed.
Great day!
And to top it off…………

“DENETION KIDS REPOT TO ROOM 210!”
sighing, the whole group headed to that room. they all had gotten pinned for something that day, as usual.
“all right kids, your all gonna be cleaning the classrooms got it?”

Hey Ash-chan can I ask you a favor." Asley  tilted her head to the side."Sure Sasori what is it?” the boy took a deep breath and looked at the girl "Can you help me get Sakura to go out with me?" He asked her. She turned to face him with an hurt expression
"Whats wrong? What did I say?" the girl blinked, her gaze falling to the ground. "YOU IDOIT SHE'S USING YOU!!"Ashley shouted at him. "SHE IS A GOD FORSAKEN SLUT!!DONT YOU SEE THAT!!" without thinking, the boy shouted back "HEY DONT CALL SAKURA THAT SHE ISNT A SLUT!!" ashley let out a soft growl, and glared at him. "SASORI FACE THE FACTS!! IM CERTAIN SHE IS!!! I HAVENT BEEN HERE LONG BUT I KNOW THAT SHE ISNT GOOD I MAY HAVE ONLY MOVED HERE AT THE BEGINNING AT THE YEAR HELL I MAY DONT BE THAT SMART BUT IM SMART ENOUGHT TO KNOW THIS KINDA STUFF!! SHE IS USING YOU!!" ashley couldn’t help herself from yelling. Sasori stared, his anger raising. "HOW WOULD YOU KNOW!!???!?!?!" Sasori shouted at her. She looked up at him. Tears in her eyes. "BECASUE IVE BEEN HURT LIKE THAT BEFORE!!" She shouted at him as she ran away down the hall.

“danna un? I hear shouts” sasori sighed and ran a hand through his hair. “ashley’s mad at me” “why un?” the redhead shrugged and looked up at the blonde. “I asked her to help me get a date with sakura, then she called her a slut, and we got in a fight.” Deidara stared for a moment. “your kidding me! of course she’s mad! Your using her!” “I am not!” raven sighed form the desk she was sitting on. “deidara, your on to talk….your using taiyo for the same reason” “n-no un! she said she wanted to help!” “your using taiyo?!” sasori glared a the blonde. “that’s just wrong, you know she’s trust’s you!” deidara gritted his teeth, and glared at the ground. Everything the girl said a the bar last night came back into his head. “damn it danna! you cant even tell that someone love you?! and how could you try and use ash-chan? No wonder she’s hurt!” “ your doing the same thing!” raven blinked and jumped off the desk, hey guys, come on, don’t do this, please” ayame turned and saw the scene. crap…good things ashleys not here
deidara smirked at sasori for a moment. “anyways danna un, she’s already going out with me, so why don’t you start chasing after one of your silly fangirls huh? Oh wait, I forgot! You’re a player! You break peoples hearts for fun. Hell un, im surprised you havnet flirted with these girls yet! Its just matter of time till you feel like hurting someone again right un?” “that’s enough!” sasori clentched his fist, and swung it, getting deidara in the stomache, casugin him to gasped. The blonde grabbed saosri’s arm,a nd swung back, scrapping the redheads jaw.

Ashley secretly watched from the closed door .It was open a small amount. Her eyes went wide.
"GUYS CUT IT OUT!!" taiyo shouted and went to stop them, but raven grabbed her. “you could get hit to!” "YEAH CUT IT OUT!!" cera shouted.
Damn it if Ashley finds out about this...she will lose it ayame sighed and  bit her lip.
Thats when the door opened. Ashley burst into the room her fists clenched at her sides.
Everyone turned to look at her when a scream lifted the room.
"STOP IT JUST STOP IT!!!"
Taiyo looked and was worried now. Ashley had tears streamning her face. Only the Kumori girls had seen her cry. It wasnt a good thing when she cried.
Because she was sent into alaps of broken memories. Some of them she wanted to forget….for good. "You shouldnt be crying its what boys do." Sakura spoke.Thats when Taiyo along with a bunch of the others glared at Sakura.
WHAM
ashley grabbed sakura’s shirt and pushed her aganst a desk.
"ASH DONT YOU DARE!!" cera screamned, but they went unheard. "You think you're so smart..dont you." the girl asked sakura. Her hand raised, and swung at sakura’s face.
Blood splatterd from Ashley's palms.
She had dug her nails so hard into her palms it started bleeding.
"YOU BITCH YOU PROBABLY LEFT A MARK!!" sakura holloared, hlding her soon-to-be bruised cheek.
"I dont care. I dont give a fuck."Ashley said.
Small splatters of blood hit the floor.
Everyone looked.
Blood was forming out Ashley's mouth.
"Stupid me."Ashley mutterd as she walked away her head lowerd. Taiyo turned to Sakura once Ashley was out the room. "BITCH IM GONNA GET YOU FOR THIS I SWEAR YOU I WILL!!! The black haired girl glared at the pinked hiared one, nothing but hatred as in her eyes.
in the time being Ayame had run out the classroom to see if Ashley was ok.
Sakura rolled her eyes and glared back. “im gonna get the bitch back”
“LIKE THE HELL YOU WILL!” taiyo grabbed the girls shirt,a dn pulled her close. “if you EVER, and I mean EVER lay a finger on ash-chan, so help me ill make you WANT to die, got it?! Don’t you EVER hurt her! or ill kill you myself!” taiyo threw the girl down, and turned to face the boys. “AND YOU TWO!” she clencthed her fist and walked over. In one swift move, she clonged both their heads together. “your both MORONS! Your best friends and your fighting over some slu who’s just using you! all she wants is to use you guys to get to sasuke! But your too blind to see that! UGH!” the black haired girl turned, and ran from the room.
hidan let out a loud whistle. “you gusy pissed of two of the worse girls just now….have fun fuckers!”
                                              ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ash!” ayame let out a sigh of relief when she found her. Ashley was in the girls room, she was leaning over the sink as she washed her face with some of the water. “Dont bother Ayame." She said as she wipped her eyes. "You have been withdrawn latley. Are you ok." Ayame asked. Ashley took a deep breath, and decied to tell ayaemt he truth.
"He...he wants me to move back in with him."
Ayame stopped her before she could continue.
"DONT YOU DARE!!!YOU KNOW IF YOU DO HE MIGHT EVEN—“ “I know, but...all I have ever wanted was....a family that loves me Ayame.He...he said he met someone...that..wants to start a family..including me in it." The girl looked up, and ayame saw longing and pain in her eyes. he blonde froze. She knew those eyes too well. They use to be hers. "Ashley your a idoit. You have us. We have been here even when we found out about your dad being a alcholic child abuser. We helped you get away. me Cho, Taiyo. Hell even Hidan considers you family. Listen who was the guy who killed your mother? Who was the guy who beat you to where you knearly died one time hm? The reason you cough up blood? The guy who left you with so many scars?" the blonde  asked these questions, knowing they were painful for the poor girl before her.
"He did. Your right Ayame. Im sorry.I was being stupid." Ashley admitted. Ayame smiled and hugged the girl "No you where just confused. Dont worry about it." The blonde tightened the hug, and softly let her go. “come on, lets get back.”
                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“damn it!” raven threw the boys a glare, then walked over to sakura. “this is all YOUR fault. If you weren’t using these boys, this wouldn’t happen!” the girl smirked and stood. “whatever” sakura pushed passed her, and walked out the door. Cera sighed and walked over to the boys. “your both in deep shit, you better go make it right…OR ELSE” the two boys gulped, and ran from the room.
                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
sakura smirked when she found the black haired girl. “HEY YOU” taiyo turned and rolled her eyes, “what?” “listen, I KNOW you like deidara” taiyo blinked, a small blsh on her face. ‘w-what?” “oh come on! Its so clear! But, you better stay away from him. I mean, he’s happy with me, and I can keep him happy. But you on the other hand, you cant. Your just a lo life orphan. I mean, your fucking parents didn’t even want you! why would someone like deidara?” “s-shut up!” taiyo clentched her fist’s, trying to keep some self control. Sakura smirked. She knew the girl was sensitive about her parnst. “that’s right dear, they’re GONE, they left you cause they knew you were worthless form the begunning, and personally, I think they made a good choice. They kenw you and your sisters were nothing but trash” “SHUT UP!” taiyo glared at the girl, who’s smirk grew.
“aw, is the orphan getting mad? Hell, im surprised you have friends….i mean, how did you even offard that house? I bet your sisters sell themselves so they can keep up the money.” “SHUT UP OR ILL FUCKING KILL YOU!” the girl panted, trying to control her anger. If she lost it, that would be VERY bad. “hmp, what ever, but you better stay the hell away from deidara, and my sasuke you got that?” taiyo rolled her eyes. “please, I hate sasuke, and deidara’s my friend” “well back off, stop talking to them, and sasori to….or else” “or else what?!” the pink haired girl smiled, and pulled something form her bag. A dark yellow notebook. “or ill give this to the school newspaper.
m-my journal! That has information about roji-sama and gato-sama in there!
“give it back!” the girl stepped back, keeping the notebook away from taiyo. “not till I see you completely stop talking to them, and then you’ll have this back. “y-you bitch! Give it back!” “hat, is it a dairy?” ‘no! give it!” taiyo went for the book, but sakura was too fast. “leave, now….oh, whats this?” sakura pulled something off the back of the front cover of the book. ‘my my, who’s he?” taiyo froze when the girl held up a picture of rjoi. The only picture the girl had. “n-no! please don’t touch that!” sakura smirked and put it back in her bag. “remember, stay, away”
as soon as the girl left, taiyo punched the wall. “UGH! I cant take it anymore!” the girl turned and ran form the school, she didn’t even seem to care that he knuckles were bleeding bad.
                               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ayame and ashley returned to the room, and found only a few in there. “m ayame?” itachi walked over, and grabbed the girl arm. “may I have a word?” before she could argue, itachi led her away.
the rest of the group took seats on the floor, making sure ashley was ok.
“what is it uchiha?” the boy sighed and loward his head. “please ayame, hear me out.
Just give me on chance to prive, that I CAN be someone that you will love” the blonde froze, then glared. “no itachi! We’ve been over this! The boy sighed. “but…what about that night?” the girl gasped, then balled her fist’s trying to keep herself from slapping him. “you bastered! You know i said never to repeat that! “but…ayame…are you sure you didn’t enjoy it? Not even a bit?””damn it I was drunk!...ugh itachi drop this already! I was drunk ok?!?! It was a drunk mistake!” the boy tried to spea, but her anger took over.
“ITACHI! I was too drunk to walk, and it was a one night stand! oK?!?!”
suddenly the girl gasped, and covered her mouth.
She turned and saw everyone staring at her. raven gasped, and looked from itachi, to ayame.
“um…excuse me, I need some air, its stuffy in here”
as soon as she was out of the room, raven took off, wanting to be anywhere but there.
