A/N:So I had this story up but deleted on accident. So I'm posting it again. Anyway, just a fair warning. Gaara is OOC(like VERY OOC) in some parts of this. But its kind of hard to keep him completely in character when he's falling in love and stuff. But I tried my best so I hope it works out ok.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, just Ami and her family.


Confusion

My name is Ami Mitzuki. I'm 13 years old and I live in Suna, the Village Hidden in the Sand. I haven't always lived in Suna. Up until I was six years old, I lived in the Leaf Village. I moved to Suna with my dad and older brother Jake, who is 16. My mom died giving birth to me, so I never knew her. I have long brown hair that goes to the middle of my back. My eyes are blue, which is different than my dad and brothers brown eyes. My dad says I look a lot like my mom. My normal clothes are a pair of blue leggings that go to a few inches above the knees, a blue tank top under a gray ¾ inch shirt that's long and goes to just below my butt. I also wear the normal ninja sandals, which are blue as well, and my headband goes around my waist.

A few days after I moved to Suna, I was in the park sitting on the swings holding my mothers necklace. My father had given it to me and told me she wore it on their wedding day and he wanted me to have it. A coulple older boys came over and took it from me, and no matter how much I begged them-even crying-they wouldn't give it back. Then another little boy came over and told them to leave me alone. The boys seemed to be afraid of this boy-I had no idea why-and they immediately ran away after calling the kid a monster. The boy had walked over to me and asked if I was ok. I had said yes and thanked him, along with finding out his name was Gaara. And the two of us have been inseparable ever since.

I walked down the streets of Suna trying to find something to do. 'Hm. I haven't seen Gaara all day.' I thought. 'I wonder where he is.' No sooner had I thought that, did I heard screams coming from around the corner. 'Found him' I thought sighing.

I ran around the corner and stopped when I saw the scene in front of me. Gaara had two boys I knew from the academy in the air in sand coffins and all the people were watching terrified.

"Gaara!!" I yelled running over to him. He looked at me. "Stop!!"

"Why?" he said emotionlessly.

One of the guys said "Ami! Please! Help us!!"

"Gaara let them go! Please!" I begged him. He stared at me for a few more seconds then dropped his hands. The two boys fell to the ground then got up and ran away. I looked up at Gaara. "Now. Do you mind explaining to me why you were trying to kill those boys?" I asked irritated.

Gaara could tell I was mad but he didn't care right now. "They were saying stuff about you." He said in his usual tone.

"What did they say?" I asked angry. All I got was silence, "Well?" Gaara stared at me for a few seconds then he disappeared in his sand thing. (A/N: You know like he did in episode 21 when he got down from the tree he was hanging in. I don't know what its called) "Gaara get back here!" I yelled but he didn't come back. "Ugh!" I walked away.

I walked down the street still irritated and thinking. 'Ugh, I can't believe him! Why does he have to be so...Ugh!' Just then I felt someone put their arm around me. I looked over and saw Kankuro, Gaara's older brother. I didn't really get along with him too well. "What do you want?" I asked him angrily. "And don't touch me." I added taking his arm off me shoulder.

"Jeez, calm down. I was just coming to comfort you. I saw you and Gaara arguing." He said.

"I don't need comforting from you." I said starting to walk away.

"And I also know why Gaara was trying to kill those 2 guys." Kankuro said completely ignoring my last statement.

I stopped walking. "You do?"

"Yep. I saw the whole thing." He said.

"Then tell me." I said. Kankuro stared at me for a second.

"Fine." He said. "But only because you're cute."

I rolled my eyes. "Just get on with it."

"Ok, ok. Well, I was walking down the street when I heard those 2 guys talking and Gaara was walking past them….."

*Flashback*

Gaara was walking past these two boys from the academy who were talking. "Hey, you know that Ami Mitzuki girl?" one said. This made Gaara stop.

"Yea. She's totally hot." The other said. Gaara started to get mad.

"I know. She has a great ass." The first said. Gaara had had it.

"Yeah she also has nice-AAHH!!" the second boy started. Sand had wrapped around him and the other boy like a sand coffin.

*End Flashback*

"And that's where you come in." Kankuro said.

I was in shock. I didn't understand why Gaara did that. "Why would Gaara want to kill them for just saying that?" I asked him confused.

"I don't know." Kankuro said. "I don't try to understand the way Gaara thinks. Well, anyway, I'm heading home. See ya." He walked off.

I was still very confused. 'Why would Gaara care about them saying that stuff? I mean, we're just friends..…Right?'
