'Ｆａｋｅｒ 偽り者 ' {Naruto Various}

' 4 '

(Y/n) sat at the end of the table, a heating pad wrapped in a towel on each of his cheeks in an attempt to heal the cramped and pulled muscles on his face.

The other Akatsuki were still on edge due to the mashed potato incident, Hidan especially as he fidgeted with his hands and had a nervous grin plastered to his face. Avoiding all direct eye contact with the leader, Kakuzu and (Y/n).

The discomforting silence wanted to make itself present as Deidara gave a small stiffled cough.

God this was awkward.

Atleast most of the mashed potato from his hair and face was gone, all thanks to Sasori and Konan who helped clean him up with a damp towel.

No one touched their food really, Deidara poked with his chopsticks the food he had served himself, Sasori didn't need to really eat so he sat there with a glass of water instead, Zetsu was eating peacefully compared to everyone else, Pein was still irritated and holding his head as he wasn't in the mood to eat, Kakuzu had his arms crossed and didn't seem interested in eating honestly.

Kisame ate normally, eyeing everyone as they seemed utterly embarrassed and anxious. Itachi was still doing no good, sulking in his seat as he ate the noodles. Tobi ate happily though, scorfing down the food in his bowl at a rapid rate as Konan drank from her glass, eyeing the new member.

"So. . . ." The shark Akatsuki started as he recieved no reply,

not a yawn, not a cough, not a sneeze.

"Why don't we explain to (Y/n) to why he's being welcomed?" He suggested.

"I second that" (Y/n) replied monotonous as he twirled the water in his glass, stripping off the heat pads from his face since they started to grow uncomfortable.

Pein groaned exhausted before pulling his hands away from his face, "We'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm too tired for this shit" He stood up from the table, leaving the room and into the hallway.

"You really fucked up Hidan" Deidara chuckled with a malicious smirk,

"I know, stop rubbing it in!" Hidan growled back, "I'm sure that he's also going to be at your neck considering that you started this chaos with your arguements with Sasori!" Now it was his turn to smirk as Deidara scoffed.

"Back off Jashin's shit!" He bit back as the pair glared at one another from across the table.

(Y/n) stood up as he handed the heat pads to Konan with a grateful nod, "Thank you Konan" He turned his attention back to the group, "With who am I staying with for tonight?" He asked as the red head raised his hand.

"You'll be staying with me tonight, just don't be too loud" Sasori warned as (Y/n) nodded, signaling that he understood.

The pair grouped up at the entrance as (Y/n) bowed and waved goodnight to the rest of the criminals, he was still trying to wrap his head around it all since nothing seemed to add up to this point, was there some sort of bounty on his head since his escape from the village? did they want him to join? why was he here exactly, what did he have to do with the criminal organization?

Well, all of that was supposedly going to be answered tomorrow morning apparently, so answers had to wait.

The walk towards the puppeteers room was silent pretty much, the occasional faint yell or chuckle from the dining room being audible as the pair walked.
