Jaymaru walked sadly to the Itachi's Room. She hadn't seen him since she'd arrived at the Hideout and she needed to speak with him. It was strange for them to be living in the same building but rarely seeing each other. Then again they had no reason to see one another. Giving a sigh she rubbed the side of her arm and knocked lightly on his door. She hoped she wasn't distrubing him. She'd seen what happened when she angered a leader of the Akatsuki. She still had the memory stuck in her head.

Itachi opened the door. When he saw that it was Jaymaru he motioned for her to come in. "Come," he said as he closed the door behind her. He then sat on the couch and looked at her from the corner of his eye. "What do you need?" He asked. He hadn't spoken to her since she'd arrived. That was okay with him, but he guessed she was feeling as though she'd done something to upset him. It wasn't like that, he just needed some time. He was used to her being a spy in a village, not in the same building as him. Plus he had Akatsuki stuff to handle.

Jaymaru walked in and plopped down on the bed like it was something she did every time she visited Itachi, but this was her first. "I um...just wanted to talk," she said. "If that's okay. I mean there's no problem, I'm settling in fine, but...." She fell silent. "I just wanted to know if you were made at me or something."

Itachi looked at her for a moment. Then he smiled. "Jaymaru, why would I be mad at you. You've done your job and that was to retrieve valuable information. My feelings for you have not changed, if that is what you're trying to get at," he said as he stood up and walked over to her. "Nothing's changed, I'm just busy is all."

Jaymaru listened to Itachi in silence. She felt like a kid. Shaking her head she nodded. "I...I understand," she said. She looked to the floor as he finished. Her face slightly red with embaressment. "Thanks, Itachi," she said as she stood up and started for the door. "Sorry to bother you."

Itachi nodded. "You weren't bothering me," he said to her. "It was nice to speak to you, on none formal matters." He then turned away from her and went to sit on the bed but stopped. "Oh and Jaymaru," he said as he turned back to her and went and grabbed her by the air.

(Is that suppose to be arm, or hair. I'm hoping arm. but if not i'll change it.)

Jaymaru smiled as he said it was nice to speak once more with each other. It was true. Leaving out she stopped as he called her name and grabbed her by the arm. Slowly she turned feeling like she was in one of those romance movies. It was a stupid idea, but why couldn't a girl dream. "Yes Itachi?"

(lol sorry, I was rushing. It was arm)

Itachi shook his head as she turned around. "Nevermind," he said."Just stay out of Deidara's way." He then shrugged and went back to his bed. "Close the door on the way out," he said. He needed some time to think. Alot of stuff was about to happen. It was only a matter of time before Deidara started on the move agin. And once he was there'd be no stopping him. Itachi would have to be right along with him. Deidara could get reckless at times and that meant Itachi was there to keep him sane.
