Inspired by song: I can be your hero, by Enrique Iglesias

At first this was a songfic but thank you TheRealGoodyTwoShoes (haha ironic name or what?) for pointing out to me that songfics break the rules. I think my story is better this way anyways! Thank you YellowMittens for your comment as well.

Beautiful song that will help create a beautiful scene. Nikkaya is my OC and I don't own Gaara but I do own her.

I looked around the room for him. He wasn't at his desk, so I knew where he had to be.

Usually at this time he was either home trying fall asleep or in his favorite place.

I ran out of the Kazekage's tower, using chakra to run up the side of a building and to the top.

My feet were quiet as I ran, hopping easily from building to building

Today had not been a good day for me and I needed to see him.

I sped up as I saw his building.

The tallest building in all of Suna was a regular spot for him to stargaze.

Running up the side of his building I smiled, excited to see him.

I got to the top of his building and found him exactly where I knew he would be.

I stood near the edge of the building, opposite from his spot.

My eyes were glued to the back of his beautiful head which was tilted up to look at a crescent moon.

It seemed too nice of a picture for me to ruin it but I did by slowly walking up to him.

I walked until I was next to him and sat in my usual place, "Hello Kazekage-Gaara," I said looking at his breathtaking face.

His aqua blue eyes moved away from the sky as he turned to look at me, "Hello Nikkaya," Gaara said.

I stared into his eyes for too long and then he was looking at the stars again.

The strong desire to hit myself came over and I wished that I was a star or the moon so he would look at me like that and come to me when he needed comfort.

I pushed these thoughts away and smiled at the moon as I thought, 'At least we are together.'

My desire for him was still there, still going strong.

All I wanted was to help him and love him.

Either way I knew that I would always be there for him, even if not in the way I wanted to be.

I thought of how sprung I was even from the first moment I saw him.

I really wanted to touch him right there

My hands itched for the feel of his skin and I fought to control them

But I knew that it was crazy, that he would hate me for trying anything because he didn't feel anything like that for me.

So for now, it has to be enough to just be next to him.

I could see it all work out in my head.

He would love me back and we would be so happy together.

We would make a great team and I would never leave him.

I glanced at his lovely face and smiled at my fantasy.

My face saddened at what would never be.

He looked at me again, noticing pain in my eyes, "Are you alright Nikkaya?"

I sighed, "It has been a long day without you Gaara-kun." I started slouching closer to him without noticing.

He frowned at my calling him 'Gaara-kun' but the frown went away when he saw how tired I was, "You should get some sleep," he said.

My head slumped the rest of the way and was now on his shoulder, my eyes closed.

Gaara sighed but allowed it. He looked down at Nikkaya and couldn't help but notice her beauty even more as she slept, her usual strong air replaced with a complete look of innocence. Gaara would have to stop letting her get to him, he had a job to do. But for now, the Kazekage gently picked up her sleeping form bridal style and took her home.

Hope you liked this, it was just for fun but I may continue this or something. There is a whole story behind the two; it explains how they know each other and all that so please let me know if I should post it. Thanks so much for reading and please review. :)
