"Shut up, Naruto!"
"No! Make me dammit!"
"Fine!" Gaara smirked. He grabbed Naruto by the hair and pulled his head inches away from his own.
Naruto closed the gap, pressing his lips on Gaara's hard. Their tongues battled for dominance. Gaara pulled away.
"Just. . . " Naruto said out of breath, unable to find the right words. "I. . . I hate you."
"Good, I love you. So piss off." Gaara said with a half smile. Naruto grabbed him him by the collar of his black shirt.
"What did you say to me?!"
"Piss off. And I mean it."
Naruto pushed Gaara to the floor. Gaara was blushing a bright red. Naruto slid his hands up Gaara's shirt. Gaara's face grew even redder. Naruto pressed his lips to Gaara's but softer this time. "Don't stop," Gaara whispered.
Naruto chuckled. "Goodbye, Gaara." He whispered in his ear. He licked Gaara's jaw, then started to stand up. Gaara grabbed him by the hand, his face flustered and sad.
"No."
"You told me to piss off, so what's it look like I'm doing?"
"No. I love you don't - "
"You're totally contradicting yourself. Do you love me, or do you want me to leave?" He smirked, sensing a victory.
"What the hell does it matter to you?! You hate me!"
"Do I? Do I really hate you? Is that what I feel? Is that why everytime I look at you, I can't seem to look away? Is that why you haunt my dreams? Is that why when I think of you I choke and get a massive headache? Is that why I desire you so much? No, it's not. Hate is the exact opposite of how I feel about you." Naruto pulled Gaara in for another kiss, sliding his hands to Gaara's hips. Their tongues clashed as the war for dominance continued. Gaara pushed Naruto off of him, and shoved his back to the wall, pinning him by the shoulders. Gaara smiled - victory was his.
"And I am the one contradicting myself?!"
"No."
"Then why did you say that you - " Gaara was cut off by a sweet kiss.
"I hated you because of what you make me feel. I hated you because you were beautiful, and I thought you hated me. But I can't hate you." He whispered. He took Gaara's face in his tan hand.
"Naruto. . . I - " He leaned in and kissed him passionately.
"Love. . ." Naruto whispered between kisses. He moved his hand up to trace over the kanji tattoo on Gaara's head. Gaara's red hair was silky and slipped through Naruto's hand.
"Do you love me?" Gaara asked when he pulled away.
"Yes," Naruto whispered in Gaara's ear.
"I need to hear you say it. . ."
"I love you, Gaara." Naruto kissed Gaara's neck sweetly. "I love you."
