Well, this is it! I have finally been able to type this up! With my stupid wal-mart job and babysitting, I never have any time to type up my story. I hope that this story will be just as big of a hit as the first one. There is more romance in this story, and there will be a larger time scale. Once again I would like to thank the people who have reviewed from the last story:

Thanks to all of you! Thanks to the people who wanted to see this sequel. Once again I hope that you will enjoy it. There is one more person that i didn't mention that helped me in the last story. I'D LIKE TO GIVE A BIG THANKS TO MY LITTLE COUSIN FOR BEING SUCH A GRAMMER NUT AND POINTING OUT THE MISTAKES IN MY STORY. When i went back to re-edit, i started making some changes in the story and made it longer, also re-writing the ending. THANKYOU KAITLYN!!!

Anyway, without further ado, here is the introduction to the sequel; Did You Wait for Me?

Gaara was laying motionless on his back in the middle of the forest path. Rain drops fell upon his cut-up, bloody body, making his ripped up clothes stick to his body. He was wearing a chocolate brown long sleeved shirt with matching long pants and a long blood-red cloth that was used to hold the gourd to his back. He laying in the remains of the gourd, which had turned into sand. Surrounding him were the dead bodies of his enemies, as well as the dead bodies of the people who were escorting him to Konohagakure. The battle would have probably ended differently if it hadn't been raining. That was what made him so weak and have to put forward more effort in order to defeat the attackers.

Gaara was completely exhausted, barely having enough energy to stay conscious. Even so, he wouldn't let himself fall asleep. He just laid there with his eyes closed, softly mumbling to himself. He wasn't talking about anything in particular. He was just saying whatever came to his mind, as long as it would keep him awake. He knew that he wouldn't last much longer, and he knew that Konoha probably wouldn't send anyone out to look for him until morning. After-all, he wasn't expected to arrive until early the next morning.

"Poor Kazekage-sama," a female sneered. Gaara groaned, thinking that it was another enemy. The voice seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn't be certain. Gaara opened his eyes and was shocked to see who he saw standing over him. "You baka! You're lucky we decided to meet up with you!" Gaara saw other figures standing around him, but focused his vision on the female standing write in front of him.

"Nice to see you too," Gaara said with a smirk before he finally passed out.
