"You—you two… are you really going to corner me like this?!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's head practically smoked with rage. Hidan shamelessly flaunted his "maid," Konan, and the two of them bantered as though the Hokage himself wasn't even in the room.
But he had no choice. With a weary sigh, Hiruzen waved his hand.
"There's a small courtyard next to Sasuke's residence. Go there. And get out...stop disturbing an old man's peace!"
Hidan grinned. "Thanks, old geezer. Oh...by the way, my beautiful maid doesn't need any paperwork or identification, right?"
"No need!" Hiruzen snapped, his teeth grinding.
His eyes burned with jealousy. This brat walks around with a perfect maid at his beck and call, and yet as the Third Hokage! I don't even have someone to pour me tea…
As Hidan activated his Mangekyō, ready to warp away, Hiruzen roared:
"Use the main gate like a normal person!!"
"Eh…" Hidan scratched his nose.
"Fine, fine. If the old man's that insistent, I'll give him face. Let's go, Konan, don't talk to this single old man."
Konan obediently carried him on her back and left, leaving Hiruzen fuming in the office alone.
"Next to Sasuke's house, huh? The old man probably wants me to 'guide' him," Hidan mused, lounging on Konan's back. He even suspected the courtyard had been prepared long ago.
A crooked smile curled his lips. "Very well. Sasuke Uchiha… I'll tweak your fate myself."
Konan carried him through Konoha's streets.
Passersby gawked...their eyes filled with envy or jealousy at the strange pair, a boy perched smugly on the back of a beautiful woman.
At a small playground, Hidan's gaze landed on a familiar figure: a timid girl with pale eyes and long dark hair.
Hinata Hyūga.
She stared at him with longing. For days she hadn't seen him, and loneliness weighed on her small shoulders.
"Hm? Hinata! Haven't seen you in a while, you've grown prettier," Hidan teased with a grin.
Hinata blushed scarlet, fingers fidgeting at her chest. The sight made him laugh.
Jumping down, Hidan pulled Konan closer and introduced them.
"Hinata, this is my personal maid, Konan. If I'm not around, she can keep you company."
"Hello, Konan-san." Hinata bowed politely, but her gaze lingered on their joined hands, and her heart sank. Summoning courage, she tugged at Hidan's sleeve.
"Hidan-nii… will you play with me today?"
Her soft plea and shy eyes melted him instantly.
"Play? Sure! Forget that...if you wanted, I'd even catch a tailed beast for you to play with!"
Hinata giggled, warmth blooming in her chest, even if she didn't know what a tail beast was.
And so the three of them ended up at the swings.
Hidan and Hinata sat side by side while Konan deadly kunoichi of the Akatsuki, became their swing-pusher, running back and forth like a coolie.
"Ha! This is fun!" Hidan laughed. With a maid like Konan, even a swing felt divine.
The playground filled with laughter, Hinata's sweet voice, Hidan's smug chuckles, and Konan's silent grumbling.
At dusk, Hinata waved with reluctance.
"Goodbye, Hidan-nii! Let's play again tomorrow!"
Hidan smirked, noting the wary Hyūga guard hovering nearby. Sooner or later, they'll forbid her from meeting me…
--
That night, Konan carried him to their assigned courtyard. On the way in, Hidan's hands wandered shamelessly over her hips and thighs until she finally escaped when someone knocked at the door.
Opening it, Konan blinked at the boy outside.
"…And you are?"
"I'm here for Hidan. Uchiha Hidan." Sasuke's voice was cold, his eyes burning.
"Let him in," came Hidan's lazy call from inside.
Sasuke entered, Konan following with a doubtful glance. The boy's aura of hatred was impossible to miss. What happened to him in Konoha? she wondered.
"I want to be your student," Sasuke said bluntly.
"Teach me how to gain strength."
Hidan chuckled. "Oh? Finally decided, huh? …Fine. Starting tomorrow, I'll train you. Go home for now."
Without hesitation, Sasuke turned and left.
Hidan stretched and smirked at Konan.
"Well then, my maid, time to rest."
"Rest? But it's still early…" she mumbled shyly.
"Not early at all. Besides...my maid sleeps with me." His gaze pinned her, heat in his eyes.
"W-wait—" Konan squeaked, but he pulled her into the room, ignoring her protests.
With a devilish grin, he locked his arms and legs around her and buried his face against her chest.
Konan's blush burned hotter than fire as she whispered, half-angry, half-embarrassed.
And Hidan thought, smugly...Life really is good.
