Hi! I have my account here since 2002, but i only posted one story, that had one chapter, and i already deleted it lol. I'm not english, so i'm sorry for the english errors that you may find!!

Ok. This story is about Gaara and my Oc Ayaka. It's a love story ) it will also have TemarixShikamaru, NarutoxHinata. I nerver read the manga, hopefully i'll do it soon, i only saw the anime. This happens some time after Gaara being kidnapped by the Akatsuki, and i will not mention any other event that happens after in the anime so i can have total freedom.

I do not own Naruto!! Naruto is property of Masashi Kishimoto.

Hope you like it :)!

The person i love doesn't exist

The person I would love and would love me back doesn't exist.

At least that's what I think.

Despite of the friends I had; I was always sad because I had no one important to me in the sense of love.

Sometimes I think that I will never love someone that way.

Sometimes I think that no one will ever love me that way.

Why was I still so crushed inside?!

Why did I wish that someone would come and say that they would love me for who I really am?!

Why did I wish I had someone that would stay by my side and protect me?!

Well… I suppose it isn't that bad, I do have friends that care for me. There are people who don't even have that.

Still, since that time that you betrayed me, I can't help but feel empty.

The only times that I feel truly happy is when I am with my friends. I wish I could be with them everyday, because when I'm alone I feel that I'm falling into the darkness.

It was another hot day in Konoha, wonderful blue sky, the citizens were walking calmly and the children were playing. Peace was really a blessing.

All of the sudden, Tsunade-Sama passed by in an insane speed.

"Okay… The Hokage is in a hurry to get to the gates?! Weird…", I though to myself as I rushed to catch Tsunade-Sama.

As always my curiosity got the best of me, although this time I was more worried than other thing.

When I finally caught Tsunade-Sama I was surprised and relieved; everything was okay, it was just a committee from Suna that had arrived. Still, the Hogake herself rushed here, so it had to be a pretty special thing going on.

"WHY DID YOU ONLY BRING TEMARI AND KANKUROU WITH YOU?!" ,Tsunade screamed.

By that time Shizune arrived and as fast as she could she put a hand covering the mouth of the impulsive Hokage.

Damn, I got to admit, Shizune was a hell of a brave woman.

I could see wrath appearing in Tsunades'-Sama eyes, as could Shizune who started chuckling nervously while removing her hand the fast she could, luckily for her Tsunade only looked at her with an assassin look, as a vein popped in her forehead.

"Tsunade-Sama – Shizune whispered– despite is age, Gaara is the Kazekage, you must control yourself" – Shizune had a firm tone, although she was a little scared.

Temari and Kankurou were both shocked but at the same time amused, they just couldn't hold a small laugh.

"Huff" – sighed Tsunade-Sama – "I'm sorry Kazekage, please, accept my apologies… But... why are you only bringing those two with you?!"

"Apologies accepted." – Unlike his two brothers Gaara didn't show any emotion at all, he only remained calm and it seemed that the rudeness of Tsunade-Sama hadn't bored him at all.

As I heard that voice I instantly looked at the direction it came, such a nice deep voice, it had to belong to a good person. That's when I saw him for the first time. Gaara from the desert. The first thing that crossed my head was that he was hot.

Hot?! I'm saying that the kazekage is hot?! Well… I can't help it! He really is… and he seems to be about my age… How can such a guy be the Kazekage?!

Wait… I can't have these kind of thoughts about the Kazekage!

I shook my head uncontrollably in the hope that those weird and kinky thoughts would go away. What I didn't expect was that that action would bring attention on me… And of all people, when I stop shooking my head, my eyes met with the eyes of the kazekage. My heart started to beat as fast as ever, my stomach seemed to have butterflies inside it, my legs started trembling, and, as I feared, I became red as tomato.

What is this feeling?! Am I falling for the kazekage?!

I wanted to run, but I wasn't able too, my legs wouldn't move.

My thoughts ran wild - "C'MON!! MOVE!!" – I shouted in my head to my legs.

Not taking his eyes off of me the kazekage continued, "Akatsuki already has what they wanted from me, honestly I don't think I'm in that sort of danger anymore."

"Shit" – I thought – "Why won't he stop looking at me, it's only making things worse!!"

Yes, I did believe in love at first sight, and I instantly knew that I was experiencing it in that moment. I wish I could know what's going on in his head...

"Know what he's thinking?! This isn't the time for that Ayaka!! You have more important problems, like, you're blushing like crazy!! OMG! I'M SO GOING TO DIE OF SHAME!!", my thoughts seemed to be running at the speed of light.

Then, as my face started to show my distress, I saw a little smirk on the kazekages' lips. It was so small and fast that only a person that was staring at him, like I was, could get a glimpse of it. Was he amused with my situation?! He's he mocking me?? Little by little I felt my shame turning into frustration.

"Yes I know, but still I don't know why you insisted to come here personally, we could have treated this matter trough letters, after all it's only some arrangements and corrections to our treaty of peace and aid" – Tsunade-Sama pointed out. She was a bit annoyed, I could tell by her right eyebrow that was higher than the other.

"Yes, but still, I think that's important to resolve personally, Baki is in my place while I'm here, I trust him", while saying this he didn't even move an inch, didn't break the gaze and I was about to fall on the ground because of the weakness that he was provoking in my knees.

I was saved, or not, by Tsunade-Sama that realised that Gaara wasn't looking at her for a while.

"Hm?? AYAKA WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!", Tsunade yelled as soon as she turned back and saw me staring at Gaara all red and weak.

Gosh… She was already annoyed, I was already preparing myself to receive a storm… It wasn't going to be pretty.

"Do you think that is nice to overhear others people conversation! Geez, you're just like Naruto! No wonder you so two get along so well!!"

For my surprise she didn't overreacted at all, I wondered why…

Gaara widened his eyes at the name Naruto and I can swear that I saw a little smile forming on his lips and a look of respect and friendship lingering in his eyes.

"AYAKA! What are you still doing here?!" , Tsunade snapped.

Guess I was too fast to judge the calm words she said a while ago, she was still mad … I nodded, turned around and was about to start running for my life, literally, when Gaara spoke,"Wait…"

Upon hearing his voice my heart went crazy and for a second I lost balance…

YES I FELL FLAT ON MY FACE!! IN FRONT OF TSUNADE AND WORSE IN FRONT OF GAARA!! I could even sense Tsunades' eyebrow twitching with anger, as Shizune ran tome to help me to get up.

"Yes, you do really seem a bit like Naruto, but I think that he's not so clumsy anymore… It seems you didn't grow as him" ,Gaara stated.

Now my face was red, but it was of pure fury, this so called Kazekage, was making fun of me, how could he!

I though that a person like him would be more… more… Ok… I don't have any arguments here; I just remembered that Tsunade is our Hokage…

"WHY YOU!!" , I yelled as I held my closed fist in the air. I only saw one of Gaaras' invisible eyebrows arching.

"What?" he said calmly.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITH WHAT!!"

I could see that he was having fun, I could even ear a bit of sarcasm on his voice, apparently this guy likes to piss others off… I totally lost my crush for him; he's such a jerk, treating people like that, people that he doesn't even know.

I was about to vent my anger on him when I fell on the floor again.

WTF!! Something was on my back, and it was heavy… AGHHH WHY DID I EVEN WOKE UP THIS MORNING!!

"GAARA!!" , yelled a grinning Naruto, that apparently was sitting on the top of my back.

"Naruto you're so going to pay for this!!", as I vented my frustration silently, Naruto got up and ran to Gaara and Tsunade.

Tsunade just shook her head as Kankurou laughed and Temari let out a shigh. As for Gaara… he was still looking at me with an amused face.

That jerk! He's so going to pay!!

Naruto interrupted my thoughts as he turned back and told me he was sorry… Yeah as if Naruto!

Naruto and Gaara shook their hands enthusiastically and smiled. I could really see a warm aura surrounding them. I never knew that Naruto and Gaara were such good friends. I knew that they got along, but they were really close; I guess it's all due to the fact they are both (or were in Gaaras' case) Jinchuuriki.
