It was 6am, barely anyone had even awoken from their slumbers yet. Not even the sun had the audacity to rise at such an early hour. But somehow, Gaara found himself sitting on the edge of the bed barely awake and watching as an energetic Lee rummaged through the closet like a maniac.
Gaara would have kicked Lee out of the room for waking him up so early but he was sort of getting used to it by now. Since the two of them have been dating for a couple years, they decided to move into a small apartment together. At first, neither of them were too happy with each other's living habits but they managed to adjust after a while. Gaara still becomes aggravated at times but all it takes is a hug and a kiss from Lee and he gets over it rather quickly.
Gaara sighed as he watched Lee dig through his clothing, tossing aside unwanted shirts and pants. Gaara figure he must've been looking for something since he had been tearing the closet apart for almost a half hour now.
"Lee..." Gaara started "Why are you going through the closet so early? You do realize it's almost 6:30 in the morning, right?" Gaara questioned, rubbing his eyes and yawning.
"I am looking for something nice for you to wear." Lee stated, assuming Gaara knew what he was getting at. Gaara raised a nonexistent brow in confusion.
"For what? We're not going on another date until next week." Gaara replied. Lee crossed his arms and turned to face Gaara with an admonishing gaze.
"Do not tell me you have forgotten about your meeting today!" Lee exclaimed. Gaara mentally facepalmed himself.
"My meeting isn't for another 5 hours." Gaara stated laying back on the bed.
"You still need to be prepared for it." Lee retaliated.
"Yes, and I'll prepare for it in a few hours." Gaara mumbled crawling back under the covers to go to sleep. He could use as much sleep as he could get, considering he barely ever gets any to begin with. Lee sighed and crawled up onto the bed, tugging at the blankets. Gaara gripped at the blankets unwilling to let them leave his body. Lee got on top of Gaara and leaned down to his ear, softly pleading for him to get up. Gaara squirmed underneath of Lee and attempted to, unsuccessfully, push him away.
"Gaara, please get up! I cannot allow you to procrastinate! If I do, you may end up being like Kakashi-sensei! Please get up!" Lee begged, Gaara huffed in frustration and shot him a death glare.
"Fine." Lee sighed crawling out of the bed "If you won't get up on your own, I'll help you."
Gaara knew what was going to happen next, and he was definitely not in the mood for it.
"You better not." Gaara warned, Lee smirked and wrapped his arms around Gaara's waist lifting him up away from the bed and placing him on the ground. Gaara looked up into Lee's eyes and glared.
"I hate you." Gaara grumbled. Lee snickered and placed a kiss on Gaara's forehead.
"No you don't." Lee retorted, ruffling Gaara's hair and returning to the closet. Gaara couldn't help but smile a bit, he supposed that's just the effect Lee had on him. In almost any situation he could find a way to smile as long as Lee was there smiling with him.
After a few more minutes of sitting in silence, Lee had finally put together an outfit for Gaara to wear. He held it up in front of Gaara proudly displaying it as if it were his greatest accomplishment in life, which it wasn't. It was a pretty nice outfit, a navy blue suit with no tie. However, Gaara wasn't exactly a fan of suits (in fact, he wasn't even aware he even owned a suit).
"I'm not wearing that." Gaara asserted, Lee frowned.
"Why not?" Lee asked, Gaara cringed.
"I hate suits." Gaara uttered crossing his arms, Lee pouted.
"Come on Gaara, I spent a long time looking for it please wear it for me!" Lee whined holding the suit out in front of him. Gaara turned away.
"I refuse." Gaara stated, Lee sighed.
"Alright, I guess I'll just have to help you again." Lee muttered, Gaara flinched.
"You wouldn't dare..."
"I would." Lee retorted walking over to Gaara and tugging at his shirt in attempt to remove it. Gaara wrapped his arms around his body and squirmed.
"Alright! Alright! I'll change on my own!" Gaara yelled as Lee backed away smirking and taking a seat on the bed.
"Thank you." Lee replied, Gaara got up and grabbed the suit from Lee but paused in the process.
"Can't you step out for a minute?" Gaara questioned blushing slightly. Lee shrugged.
"It is not like I have not seen it before Gaara." Lee giggled. Gaara flinched and escorted Lee out of the room with his sand, making sure the door closed behind him.
Yes, they had seen each other without any clothes on at all before but Gaara was still very timid about exposing himself. He doesn't even like seeing himself naked, even if nobody else is around to witness it. He's still surprised he's ever allowed Lee to remove his clothing when they're going at it.
Gaara took a deep breath and slowly slipped out of his pajamas and into the suit. Taking a glance in the mirror, he did have to admit he actually looked halfway decent. The suit fit perfectly around his figure it was neither too tight or too baggy and it was perfect the the meeting he was going to. Gaara glanced over at the door and debated on whether or not to open it. He figured Lee would end up barging in here eventually anyways so, he decided to open it and let Lee back in. When he did so, however, he almost immediately regretted it. In less than a minute Lee had him engulfed in a tight hug, showering him with kisses, and was practically screaming in his ear.
"Aww, Gaara! You look so handsome! I knew it would look good on you! Are you not glad I found that?! Of course you are! Who am I kidding?! I love it!" Lee exclaimed in between kisses practically mashing every word into gibberish.
"Lee..." Gaara mumbled trying his hardest to not obliterate the green clad ninja. Lee softened his grip around Gaara and backed away slightly to make eye contact, flashing his trademark grin at Gaara.
"I am sorry, love, it is not my fault you are so charming." Lee complimented, Gaara blushed slightly and glanced to the side.
"B-be quiet." Gaara snapped, flustered by Lee's compliment. He swore, no matter how many compliments he receives in his lifetime he will never be used to it. Lee chuckled, tilting Gaara's head up and gently kissing the love tattoo on Gaara's forehead. Gaara was sure his cheeks were nearly completely red but he no longer cared. He simply sighed and rested his head in Lee's chest. The two stayed just like that for a few minutes until Lee realized what time it was.
"Oh! It's almost 9 o'clock!" Lee started, "How about we go out for breakfast? And then I can drop you off at your meeting afterwards."
Gaara pondered about the offer for a few moments and nodded in approval. Lee smiled and strolled over to one of the dresser drawers to retrieve his wallet. Gaara knew enough to allow Lee to pay by now, if he didn't Lee would simply continually insist on buying until he got his way. Sometimes he could almost be a little too polite if you asked Gaara.
"Alright Gaara, let's go." Lee declared, offering his hand to Gaara. Gaara smiled shyly and hesitantly accepted Lee's offer. Despite the fact they both have a lot of physical contact with each other, Gaara was still a bit hesitant about it at times. Lee understood this though, Gaara has barely had any physical contact in his life at all (before Lee came along, that is).
After breakfast Lee took Gaara to his meeting, as promised, and they were exactly on time. Gaara thanked Lee for this morning and gave him a quick hug and kiss before nervously walking off into the meeting room. Lee wished Gaara the best of luck and turned to walk away. When he tucked his hands into his vest pockets, however, he froze. Just as the meeting began, Lee burst through the door.
"Gaara! I nearly forgot to give you your tie!"
A/N: I don't know where this idea came from, and I have no idea why I had this idea but it happened, I kind of just wanted Lee and Gaara to argue over clothing xD also, I kept imagining Lee bursting into one of Gaara's meetings for a completely unimportant reason and just completely embarrassing poor Gaara xD oh well, he'll get his revenge.
