Title: The Power of Love: Take 2
Author: Evandar (yamievandar / hikarievandar)
Fandom: Naruto
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Deidara/Lee/Sasuke
Warnings: Crack and mild shonen-ai
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto and I am making no profit from this story.
Summary: Inviting a member of the Akatsuki to stay in the village was bound to have consequences.
Notes: This is the sequel to The Power of Love. It's unplanned, probably multi-chaptered, and I have no idea why I wrote it. I'm on a bit of a crack writing spree at the moment.
Being a member of Team Gai meant that Neji had seen more than his fair share of weird things. He had a loud, large and inhumanly strong spandex wearing Sensei, a kunoichi team mate with a weapon fetish, and…Lee.
Neji had underestimated Lee at first, but he had grown to respect his team mate’s enthusiasm (even though it irritated the Hell out of him sometimes) and his dedication to his ninja way. He respected Lee’s talent in the field of taijutsu. In short, he respected Lee. He just didn’t understand him sometimes.
Lee’s…attachments were another thing that he didn’t understand. It hadn’t remained a secret for very long after Lee dragged Sasuke Uchiha and the ex-Akatsuki member Deidara into Konoha and in front of the Hokage. It was hard to keep a secret in a village full of ninja, after all. Neji was just amazed that Lee had ever been able to keep something like that a secret, especially from his team.
Lee had two lovers. He had two S-classed missing-nin lovers. Male lovers.
Neji never thought Lee had it in him.
The…revelations about Lee’s love life were hard to ignore. Neji knew that very well: he’d been trying not to think about Lee, his love life, and the logistics involved ever since the rumours had started to spread. (That they had been confirmed just made it worse, in Neji’s opinion, as he’d been unable to stop himself from trying to figure out just how the threesome worked.) And as one of Lee’s old team mates, he’d been one of the people who’d had to deal with these new changes directly.
Lee had taken it upon himself to bring his lovers to one of the team training sessions.
Fortunately for Lee, Maito Gai was an open minded man, who had decided that his quirky relationship was just another way of showing how ‘youthful’ Lee was. Lee and Gai had then proceeded to hug, weep and cry out each other’s names just as they had done ever since Lee had been placed on Gai’s team as a Genin.
Uchiha had apparently remembered the displays of affection Lee and Gai-sensei were accustomed to, as he simply twitched slightly at the sight. Deidara, on the other hand, had never been exposed to the sparkling hugs of manly youthfulness before. He stared; slack jawed at the scene, before raising his hands to massage his temples.
Tenten chose that exact moment to lean over and mutter in Neji’s ear: “He’ll need to be ‘youthful’ to keep up with both of them in the sack.”
Neji choked on his own saliva, earning himself an odd look off Uchiha. He really, really hadn’t wanted to think about that. He also hadn’t wanted his brain to come up with new uses for Lee’s flexibility or the mouths he’s spotted on Deidara’s hands. He really hadn’t.
He doubted he’d ever be able to look at his team mate in the same way ever again.
After the sparkles and the sunset glow of youthful manliness had faded, and Lee and Gai had pulled apart, they finally got round to the full introductions. And the training, and after that, they got round to having lunch and relaxing together. Deidara lay sprawled on the ground, his head on Uchiha’s lap chatting inanely about art while fiddling with a lump of clay and eating grapes that Lee fed him. Uchiha looked, as always, unbearably smug as he ate his bento, while Lee just looked…happy. He was grinning like a loon, and shooting fond looks in the direction of his two partners.
Then Tenten had to break the peace. “How did, er, this, um, happen?” she asked, waving her hand at the happy and almost obnoxiously loving scene.
Neji looked at her warily. Why did she want to know? He had to admit to being slightly curious himself, but he was quite happy to live in ignorance. He would do just about anything to stop himself from thinking about how useful Lee’s perfect muscle control would be in bed. Unfortunately, clapping his hands over his ears and shrieking “LALALA I’M NOT LISTENING!” was not something that he, a Hyuuga – Neji Hyuuga at that – could get away with.
The answer to Tenten’s question was less insane than the situation might have suggested.
“We were all on solo missions,” Uchiha said.
‘You met, fought and then fucked,’ Neji thought, his mind automatically filling in the blanks. ‘Possibly out in the open.’
Thankfully Tenten didn’t ask for details of how that turned into some sort of lasting relationship.
“I thought the Akatsuki moved in pairs,” Gai pointed out.
Deidara waved one grinning hand absent-mindedly. “Sasori-danna was killed, yeah,” he said “by his Granny and some pink-haired chick.”
Neji stared at him in horror. If he’d looked, he would have noticed similar expressions on Gai and Tenten’s faces. Even Lee had winced slightly.
“You’re one of the ones who kidnapped the Kazekage,” he said.
“Yeah,” Deidara said.
Neji didn’t listen to the rest of his rambling ‘yeah’-punctuated answer. He didn’t care. His insides had just gone very, very cold. He’d been peripherally aware of the effects inviting an ex-Akatsuki member into the village, but he hadn’t really thought about that. About the attack on the Kazekage. He hadn’t thought that Tsunade-sama was suicidal enough – or stupid enough – to invite someone who had hurt one of Naruto’s friends – more like ‘killed’, actually – to stay in the village.
Naruto was going to be pissed.
Oh fuck.
Neji didn’t have to be a genius to know that this was going to end badly.
