Gaara fidgeted nervously, taking yet another glance at his new roommate. Neji sat completely oblivious to the attention he was getting on the cream bean bag that he'd brought over from the Huuga estate. He was curled up like a cat as they sat watching TV together. Gaara however was anything but relaxed and sat ridged on his seat. The reason Gaara was so uncomfortable was the numerous thoughts going through his head, one being how beautiful his new roommate was, secondly was how come he'd never noticed this before 'I mean we've both been Naruto's friends for years and we've seen each other enough times,' and thirdly was why the hell was he getting so worked up over a guy?

Neji suddenly stood and muttered absently. "I'm going to have a shower."

Gaara took a sharp breath and blurted out before he could stop himself. "and why would I care about that?" Oh very sly he thought cringing.

Neji blinked looking slightly freaked out. "I was just saying so you know where I am." And with that he left taking his hair down as he went.

Gaara began fidgeting more than ever when he heard the water turn on. After about five minuets of fidgeting Gaara fell off the chair. "Damn." He muttered angrily, standing up. He took a look around for no reason in particular before making up his mind, the red head walked towards the bathroom door, pausing when he reached it. It's probably locked. He thought but pushed on the wood anyway. Gaara blinked as the door opened o yeah we don't have a lock. Gaara quickly slipped into the bathroom, closing the door before any steam could escape.

Squinting through the mist the red head soon spotted the elegant figure of Neji in the far corner of the bathroom, even thought the brunette had his back to him Gaara could tell something was wrong. Abandoning all attempts of being quiet the red head walked up behind Neji and wrapped his arms around the thin boys waist. Neji's head spun round. "G-Gaara?" He asked, his voice quiet and broken from where he'd been crying.

Gaara didn't answer and instead pulled Neji to the floor and onto his lap. The red head made sure to stay sat under one of the main water flows to keep Neji warm. Said boy took a deep breath to try and calm himself but his tears carried on falling. They sat in silence for a while before Neji let out a small whimper, cringing as soon as he did so, but that was it the tears came faster and he began shaking.

Gaara manoeuvred Neji so that the boys head was on his chest, the brunette closed his eyes as Gaara started to rock from side to side, shushing and stroking his stomach in an attempt to calm him. "It's okay, it's okay." the red head whispered running a hand through Neji's wet but glossy hair. Neji sighed finding himself relax into Gaara's touch. The red head didn't seem to mind in the slightest that he was getting completely drenched infect he hardly noticed it, he just simply waited with Neji constantly trying to calm him.

The gentil rocking and soothing touches helped make a sleepy sensation fall over the thin brunette until he couldn't remember whether he was awake or asleep. Absently reaching up he placed a hand around the back of Gaara's neck, looking up at hem Neji allowed his breath to ghost over the red heads face before he fell asleep his lips inches from Gaara's own.
