Chaper One- Unknown Screen name
I sat on my large velvet black chair, huddled with a blanket reading my latest book "Thirst" with a large lamp towering over me, shining as the only source of light in my dark comfindment of a room. The only sound that filled the air was the light droplets of water tapping on the window. I loved nights like this, The sound of the rain soothed me and took my mind away from the stresses of the real world. I hoped that it would continue like this through out the week but I knew that the sun would shine soon enough.
Most 17 year olds would be at the movie with friends or dates, or at the mall on a Friday night even in the light rain. But Im not, I stay here away from the world reading my books. I glance over to my vacant computer desk and sighed softly. I have tons of friends online, friends from different states, even countries, but I dont have many friends in real life. I sit my book down on the arm of my chair and walked over to my computer. I turned it on and signed into messenger. I glanced at my buddy list and sighed when I saw no one on. I turned up the sound on my computer slightly and walked back over to my chair. I picked up my book and started reading again. A loud pinging noise broke me from my thoughts and I glanced up at my computer.
A white IM box appeared on my computer screen with the sound of another pinging noise. I got up and walked over to my computer. I sat down on my chair and read the messages.
FallingForHer: Hey.
FallingForHer: Are you there??
I bit down on my bottom lip, wondering who this person was.
Cherryblossoms: Yes.
Cherryblossoms: Who is this?
FallingForHer: Are you Sakura Haruno?
Cherryblossoms: Yes...
FallingForHer: Okay good.
Cherryblossoms: ...Who is this?
FallingForHer: My name is unimportant right now, I need to know something.
Cherryblossoms: Alright..
FallingForHer: Do you know someone by the name of Gaara?
Cherryblossoms: He goes to my highschool...I never talk to him...
FallingForHer: I see. Alright Thanks.

I stared at my computer screen trying to figure out what just happened. I added the screen name so I could get information on why they asked me about Gaara. I trailed back to my chair and sat down, totally forgetting about the open book beside me. Why was I asked about Gaara? It didnt make any sense. He was in my French class but I knew absolutly nothing about him.
I knew that he was quiet but almost every girl was in love with him. Everytime I walk to French class I hear his name and some giggles from a group of girls standing by the lockers or the restrooms. Guys feared him, They found him scary. He was pale with fire red hair that seemed to be his natural color. His empty emerald eyes were always focused away from people and everyone commented about the blood read tattoo on his forehead, above his right eye. The Kanji meaning ''Love''. Some people found it disgusting and some people found it impowering.
Even though he was siblings with my best friend Temari, I knew little about him. He was mysterous and seemed to have an aura of cautiousness and anger but it seemed like no one noticed but me. Even though I was always with Temari, he doesnt even know I exsist. I know that Temari, Gaara, and their brother, Kankuro live together. Even though i've known Temari for almost 6 years, i've never been to her house. Infact I dont even know where she lives.
Another ping from the computer snapped me out of my thoughts. I walked back over to my computer and yawned softly.
XxWindMoonFirexX: Hey Saku-Channn!!
Cherryblossoms: Hey Tem-Tem.
XxWindMoonFirexX: Whts up??
Cherryblossoms: Not much, I got a weird IM earlier.
XxWindMoonFirexX: Rlly?
Cherryblossoms: Yeah.
XxWindMoonFirexX: From who?
Cherryblossoms: Not sure, I asked them for their name and they said it wasnt important.
XxWindMoonFirexX: How stalkerish.

The phone rang and I picked it up. "Temari?" I spoke into the phone.
"Saku-chan!!" She chimed. "How are you?"
"Good.."
"Thats great." She beamed. "I have something important to tell you." She said in almost a sing-song voice.
"Okay..tell me?"
"Alright, I cant tell you though. But im going to come to your house tomorrow and ill tell you in person okay?" She whispered into the phone in a hush voice.
"Yeah sure, What time tomorrow?" I questioned.
"Around one, I'll see you there. Oh yeah, and wear black lipstick." And with that she hung up.
Wear black lipstick? She acted like I wasnt going to do that anyways. I walked over to my vanity and looked in the mirror at my icy pale skin. I adjusted my long pink pig tails and looked at the fading black tips. I needed new dye. I picked up my silver lip ring and put it through the small light pink hole under my pale lip. I looked at my snakebites and picked up a silver eyebrow ring with black sparkly balls on each end and put it under my right eyebrow. I walked back to my computer and saw three new IMs pop up on my screen.
FallingForHer: Hey.
FallingForHer: I can see you added me.
FallingForHer: Do you have a myspace?
Cherryblossoms: No, I dont.
FallingForHer: Oh. What do you think of Gaara?
Cherryblossoms: I dont know him at all. Hes in my french class and hes quiet.
FallingForHer: I see. What about Sasuke? Do you know him?
Cherryblossoms: Yes I know him. Hes a jerk.
FallingForHer: Haha I see.
FallingForHer: May I ask you something?
Cherryblossoms: Sure, Go a head.
FallingForHer: I like this girl but I cant get up the nerve to talk to her. Im afraid she might think im a freak or something.
Cherryblossoms: Well if you really like her then find some way to figure out if she likes you. Im bad at giving advice.
FallingForHer: Haha its fine. Well bye.

I glanced at my alarm clock. 1:40 AM. I put my messenger on idle and trugged over to my round bed. I fell ontop of it and covered up with my black comforter. I closed my eyes and curled up, listening to the sound of the rain hit against my window until sleep consumed me.
The Next Day;;
Beep
Beep
Beep
Bee-
"GOD DAMN ALARM CLOCK!" I yelled as I yanked my alarm clock and threw it against the wall, breaking it. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I blinked and looked out my window. The sun peaked slightly through the dark grey morning rain clouds. I stood up and yawned. I walked over to my computer and looked at the clock in the corner. 9:36 AM. I sighed and argued with myself that this was way to early in the morning to be up. I looked through my closet and yanked out a plaid black and red mini skirt and a tight short sleeve black shirt and a black long sleeve fish net shirt to go underneath. I walked into the bathroom and slipped out of my pajamas. I turned the shower on hot and jumped in letting the hot water prick my skin causing it to slightly turn red from the heat. I scrubbed my strawberry body wash into my skin and then washed my hair with my strawberry shampoo. I turned off the water and dried off. I put on my clothes and straightened my hair. I put them up in long high pig tails and washed my face. I put on my heavy black eyeliner and black lipstick then i put in my two silver lip rings and my silver eyebrow ring. I brushed my teeth and jogged
downstairs. I put on my mid-thigh black boots and laced them all the way up and tied the black shoe strings in a bow at the top.
After munching on a peice of toast I heard Temari honk her car horn impatently. I threw the peice of toast away and walked outside. Temari sat in her black convertable and honked the horn again. She stuck her head out the window "Hurry the fuck up!"
I got in the car and looked at her "You have horrible eyesight, infact I dont trust you behind the wheel that much..." She looked at me and smiled.
"You look really good today Saku-Chan." She complimented as she drove out of my driveway.
"Yeah, thanks. Where the hell are we going?" I watched the trees fly by as she drove down the street.
"I have a suprise for you." She beamed. I looked at her. Her blonde hair was in four short messy pony tails. She was wearing a short black strapless dress and black fishnet leggings with her black combat boots. She had on shadowy grey eyeshadow and her nose stud was a small- almost invisable diamond.
I sighed and gave up while I was a head. I knew I wouldnt win against Temari in an argument like this so there is no point in trying. I watched outside the window as she pulled up to a large Barns & Nobles book store. She parked and turned off the engine. We got out of the car and walked up to the large building.
"Why did you bring me here?" I questioned.
"You'll see" she chimed. I sighed and followed her inside, dodging all the people that were crowding around the magazines. I followed her to the back of the store to the chairs and the shelves of drawing books and manga. She sat down in one of the soft dark blue chairs and I sat in the one across from her.
"Where is he..hes late..." I heard her mutter. I looked up and stared at her.
"Who's late?" I asked, confused.
She ignored my question and continued to look around. She stopped looking and stared at something, her eyes not leaving it. Before I could look for what she was staring at she grabbed my attention.
"Saku-Chan, I'll be back. I have to use the restroom." And with that she jolted up and scurried away. I stood up from my chair and traveled over to the drawing books. I looked at the spines of them and sighed, not finding anything intersting. I turned around and almost fell over when I saw someone standing at my seat, staring at me.
"Gaara...?" I looked at him and blinked. I couldnt even feel his presence there, He was to quiet to even notice. He continued to look at me and nodded slightly. He sat down in the seat across from mine and motioned for me to walk over there. I did as he wanted and sat down in my seat. I felt myself blush as he continued to stare at me.
"Sakura, Would you like to go get coffee with me?" He asked softly.
I nodded. "Sure.." We stood up and walked outside. The cool wind hit my almost bare skin like needles. I shivered and Gaara looked at me. He took of his long black trench coat and draped it over my bare shoulders. I looked at him. His fire red hair blew in the wind showing some of his red tattoo. His skin was pale and looked cool to the touch. A black short sleeve shirt hugged his well toned body tightly. He was wearing black and lime green baggy trip pants with chains hanging off of the sides. Original black converse peaked out from under the flare at the end of his pants.
"Thank you." I said tearing my eyes away from his flawless body. He nodded and walked down the side walk twoards Starbucks. I followed behind him silently, watching people pass us by. Soon we walked into the Starbucks and the smell of coffee and cakes filled the warm air. People bustled about minding their own business either reading the paper or typing on laptops. Gaara sat down at a table near the back and I sat across from him.
"What would you like?" He looked at me.
"Im fine.." I whispered, smiling slightly.
"Are you sure?" He question cocking an eyebrow at me.
I nodded and looked down at the table shyly. Gaara silently got up and walked over to the counter. he came back with a cup of steaming coffee. He sat down infront of me and placed the coffee down.
"Do you know someone with the screen name FallingForHer?" He asked. I looked up at him in surprise and nodded. He stared at me, silent and then I realized what was going on.
FallingForHer was Gaara. He must of gotten my e-mail from Temari's list...
"Im him." He stated still staring at me with his beautiful eyes.
Okay, I know this is kinda long but yeah. Reveiws and opinions would be nice.
Oh yeah, just so some people dont get confused the screen name Cherryblossoms is Sakura.
