Title: A Mother's Touch
Characters: Gaara
Summary: Selfish and Selfless. Want to please but with every bit need in return. A single touch. Gaara's thoughts, his equation of a warm embrace.
Rating: M
Note: This cam from a discussion amongst my friends and I about the need for touch. Gaara's a character that never seemed a hug, but seemed to form his own kind of bond over blood and his "mother" this is me poking at the thought process how a child who knew that shedding blood was wrong would rationalise that on his own.

Touch.

Warm, soft. A lover's moan.

Blood rushing under skin.

Fingertips clawing at backs, rough against smooth.

Desperation and pleading.

'please, oh please, more -'

Touch. Touching. Touches.

'please, oh please - '

Selfless want to please. Selfish need to have it returned.

A bitten lip, blood running down. Silence the vocalization of want.

Want of what?

The feel of blood under nails, blood that makes it -

touch

- warm.

The blood undone.

Need. Hate. Want. Forget it.

Moans. Cries. Of need. Need of what?

'please... mm - please sto - '

Want. Want and can't stop. Selfish, selfless.

Blood to heat. To make warm. To make a touch.

Rain it down.

Let it pour down -

touch

- upon me.

Hot and sticky.

Red and sweet, under not over.

Warm, soft.

Want or need of?

'please, oh please. Just stop- mmm.'

Rough against smooth. Need not want.

Desperation and pleading.
