On to the story!! :)

Bloody Valentine

It was an unusually warm day for February. Sabaku no Gaara was grateful for the slight breeze that brushed past his (Hot as in sexy) face. If only he didn't have to carry the burden of wearing the Kazekage robes (which look SO sexy if he is the one wearing them) while walking down the crowded streets of Kohana.

It wasn't the heat that was making him uncomfortable. Being from the desert (HELLO?! Sabaku means desert you freaks!!) he was used to it. No, it was all the people starring at him that made him feel out of place and uneasy.

Yet like the heat of his home land Gaara found himself becoming more and more familiar in Kohana. He even realized that he was anxious to be back in the city. Yeah, sure, having to do the work of a kage like signing papers, making treaties, keeping up appearances, and making sure his village didn't get blown to pieces was really boring but on the up side he also got to visit all of his amazing friends.

In the years since he had given up the life of a deranged psychopathic cereal (I like cereal!) killer and traded it for the life of a somewhat normal sixteen year old dude he had gained many friends.

He was now on good terms with Shikamaru, Choji, Kiba, Shino, Hinata, Tenten, Neji, Sai, and even Rock Lee and considered them to be his friends even though he was not as close to them as most friends were.

And then of course there was Naruto, the ADHD dude with a reputation of being the number one hyperactive knuckle-head ninja as well as a head-strong idiot with an un-normal alternate ego and a massive apatite for raman.

Gaara (Super kawii which is super cute in Japanese) and Naruto had become great friends in the years since the kyuubi container had knocked some sense into him. And because Naruto also had a demon sealed within him it allowed their brotherly bond to grow even stronger. (Don't you dare think about the Naruto and Sasuke thing you freaks! Remember, Naruto wasn't gay. Sasuke was. And Gaara is anything but a homosexual!! )

But Gaara had to admit that the one thing he was looking forward to the most was seeing a certain pink haired konoichi. He would never admit it to anyone, except of course to Naruto and his brother Kankuro, not that he had mentioned it to either of them yet, but ever since she had saved his life nearly a year ago Gaara found himself becoming more and more drawn to her everyday. (As well as having some very perverted daydreams involving leather boxers and Sakura. –JK-) In fact he was just starting to admit to himself that he might just have a stronger feeling for her then just liking her.

Love. Now that's a sentiment he hadn't thought about in a while. It was something he had craved more then life itself yet at the same time hated beyond imagination, something he never thought he would be capable of feeling. It was an emotion he feared as well as longed to have. It was simply… love. And now here he was, falling into it without realization.

"Hey Gaara!!"

The young (and amazingly HOT) Kasekage turned his head in the direction of the very familiar voice. He tried to move out of the way but he failed. A blur of yellow and orange went slamming into his side and crushed him in a huge bear hug before he could escape.

"Naruto. Let go of me. Now." Gaara hissed, barely able to get the words out through his constricted air way.

"Oh, sorry." Naruto replied releasing him immediately and stepping back to chuckle bashfully with one hand scratching the back of his head.

Gaara sent him a death glare but his (gorgeous) jade eyes softened in an instant after seeing his friend's worried look. Naruto returned his gesture with a huge foxy grin.

"So, what brings you here this time?" Naruto asked as they began to walk towards the Hokage building.

"Something about an exchange of shinobi to strengthen our bonds. Because Suna has many ninja that specialize in elite infiltration Lady Hokage has proposed a trade off for a few of your capable shinobi. Suna may be ahead of you in infiltration but we are lagging behind in categories such a medicine and strategy."

"Wow. Sounds complicated." Naruto said, trying to sort through everything Gaara had said. Giving up he said in his cheerful voice "I'm just glad you will be here for a while! It's been months since we saw each other. By the way, how long are you staying?"

Gaara thought for a moment, sorting though his mind before announcing "Today is the thirteenth, right? So that means I will be here until the twentieth. One week."

"Awwww!" Naruto complained. "You have to leave so soon?!"

"Yes. Suna can't run itself and I'm sure as hell not going to leave Kankuro in charge for longer then that. You remember what happened last time, right?"

Naruto cringed at the very thoughts. Now that was something they could never let happen again.

"Oh well… It could be worse. I could have a mission while you're here." Said the fox boy before they entered the Hokage building, touring above them.

&X&X&XGAARA#IS#A#SEXY#BEAST#X&X& X&

"WHAAAAAT?!" Naruto searched.

"You heard me! You have a mission! Be ready by seven this evening!" The fifth Hokage stated firmly.

"But Grandma Tsunade!!" he wind.

"No buts! This is you mission! Deal with it! You will leave tonight and be back by the evening of the nineteenth and if I hear one more complaint from you I am demoting you back to chunin! Got that?!" Tsunade hollered back.

Naruto quickly shut his mouth. It had taken him over a year to build his way up to jonin and he wasn't about to lose his newly acquired title.

"Now, Lord Kasekage, let us talk." Tsunade said, motioning to the chair in front of her desk.

Naruto sulked off while the two kages began their conversation.

&X&X&XGAARA#IS#A#SEXY#BEAST#X&X& X&

"So what's up?" Naruto asked when Gaara finally emerged from the building around four.

"What are you still doing here? Aren't you supposed to be preparing for your mission?" Gaara asked.

"Already taken care of. So I have a few hours and since we won't be able to hang out later because of the mission I guess we should start hanging out now." Naruto grinned.

"Alright then, where to?" Gaara questioned.

As is he had to ask. "Ichiraku Ramen!" Hollered the blond.

They sat and talked about random things for who knows how long, the main topic revolving around what Gaara had been up to.

"Naruto, what's going on?" the red head (drop-dead-gorgeous) boy finally asked his companion.

"What do you mean?"

"You haven't said one thing about what has been happening around here so spill. What's up?"

Naruto hesitated and bit his lip before answering. "Well… You see… Sasuke is back."

Gaara's became even more emotionless then he usually was. "So?" he questioned. "What would I want with Uchiha?"

Naruto hesitated yet again. "Well… he has been back for a while now and… well… him and Sakura are kind of… Um… dating."

The blond shielded his face from the explosion he was sure was coming but none came. When he opened his eyes again he saw Gaara sitting there, his face just as calm and passive as ever.

"And why would I care about something like that? Haruno and Uchiha are of no interest to me." Gaara said his tone unusually even and smooth.

Naruto's eyes clearly stated he pitied his friend. "Come on Gaara. You mean to tell me you haven't admitted it yet?"

"Admitted what?"

Naruto rolled his eyes. "Don't try to deny it. After the chunin exams every time you see Sakura there was something different in your eyes. It intensified after she saved you from the Akatsuki and you can't deny it. You love her."

Gaara cringed at the word love.

"Ok…" Naruto compromised "So you have strong feelings for her. You even told me you thought you might be falling in love with her-"

"When did I say that?" Gaara asked, mortified.

"Remember that one time, we had a party, what was it? A few months ago? And Sai spiked the punch?"

Gaara turned as white as a sheet.

"Yeah well, you told me then, but don't worry. I was the only one you mentioned it to. I think…"

The young Kasekage's face turned as red as his crimson hair with the knowledge his secret had been let out.

"Don't you see?" Naruto questioned. "Sakura… She dose not belong with Sasuke. I still don't trust him even though he has said he changed his ways. And you two are just so perfect together. You deserve each other.

Gaara snorted. "Sakura does not deserve me. The Akatsuki had been unsuccessful. Shukaku still remains trapped within me. I'm still nothing more then a murderous demon."

"Don't say that! You have changed!"

"That may be, but just because someone alters their actions and attempts to make themselves a better person it dose not change what they are inside. I'm still a demon inside and I'll always be. I don't deserve such an angle as Sakura. And she certainly dose not deserve to be trapped at the side of a demon like me. She has earned better then that for her life."

"But Gaara…"

"Naruto. Drop it. If Sasuke is what she wants then he is what is best for her. A traitor ninja is surly still a much more worthy person then I am. Deranged mass murderers are still less valuable then Sasuke."

And so Naruto dropped the conversation and they walked out of the Raman shop. Instead they talked about a subject the two were quite fond of; their demons.

"I never knew how perverted Kyuubi could be, but now, it's like all he ever talks about is girls and finding a mate." Naruto complained.

"Tell me about it. Shukaku is probably just as bad. I swear some of the things he puts into my mind would frighten even the strongest of shinobi." Both boys shivered involuntarily before continuing.

"At least Kyuubi has only been acting up around one girl. I would die if it was more then that."

"Really? Who?" Gaara asked, interested.

"Oh, no one!" Naruto insisted as his face turned redder and redder.

"Naruto." Gaara said in a threatening tone.

"Well, it's… It's Hinata! There. Ok. I said it." Naruto whined.

Gaara smirked. "Took you long enough." Naruto was about to question what he meant by that when the two of them ran into some very unexpected company. There, in front of them stood Sakura Haruno, and Sasuke (cough cough Sasu'gay') Uchiha.

"Hi Naruto, Gaara-sama." Sakura greeted happily yet shyly. Gaara suspected the shyness was because she happened to be on Sasuke's arm.

"Gaara." The Kasekage corrected her.

"Gaara." She repeated back, still quite flustered.

"Hn." Sasuke said.

He stole our word! Shukaku complained.

Drop it and shut up. Gaara told him. Then he replied to Sakura. "Hello Sakura." As a greeting to the gay chicken-butt hair dude he glared.

"Hi Sakura-chan! Sasuke, baka." Naruto said, his tone changing from happy to annoyed in between greetings.

"Loser." Sasuke replied.

Let me at him! Let me at him!! Kyuubi growled.

Let me at him! Let me at him!! Naruto agreed but held himself in place for Sakura's sake. (And no! Sakura doesn't drink. Think English people!)

"Sakura, would you mind if I talked with Gaara and Naruto alone for a moment?" Sasuke asked sweetly. Dazed, Sakura had no other choice but to accept.

"Ok." She said, even though she would have rather not leave Sasuke's side. He gave a seductive smile and a kiss on the cheek before slipping some money into her hand and telling her to go buy anything she wanted from the surrounding shops.

After she was out of ear shot Sasuke turned back to the two boys, his face hardened. "Alright here is the deal. Gaara," he said turning to the red head "First of all, I'm warning you to stay away from Sakura." Gaara was about to ask why when Sasuke clarified.

"I've seen the way you look at her. Don't try to deny it for my eyes see everything. Just now you looked at her with a certain emotion in your eyes. An emotion I did not think you would be capable of feeling let alone expressing. Never the less, I want you to stay away from her. She's mine now and I don't want you anywhere near my property." Gaara's eyes filled with hate and his quickly rising temper but Naruto beat him to the punch.

"Sakura is not your property! She is a human being and you can't own her! Gaara can talk to her if he wants to! There is no law that says he can't!"

"Actually, there can be a law. It's called a restraining order. All I have to do is ask for one and I'm sure to get it. Sakura would not dare to argue with me. After all, I am her faïence." Gaara and Naruto's eyes widened at his words.

"What?!" they both screamed. Some of the people passing stared at them before continuing on their way.

Sasuke smirked. "What? Don't tell me you two didn't figure it out? Sakura is the perfect person to help me revive my clan." Sasuke said (the sick Bass-terd! Get it?) "I guess you do have a point when it comes to the property part. I should remember not to call her that to her face in the future. She would think it rude so instead I'll just call her my Cherry Blossom." Gaara clenched his fists.

Kill him!! Kill him!! How dare he!! Sakura is our Cherry Blossom! Rip his throat out! You better watch out Uchiha because… I KILL YOU!! (Ackmed rules!)

For once Gaara found himself in agreement with his demon.

"And one more thing, since human beings can't be my 'property' does that mean you two can? After all, you not even human." (You EVIL son-of-a-bit-cough chough female dog!! We can't believe we have to make you say these things!! Oh well… Were going to kill you anyway!! Literally! –Evil smiley face-)

That was it. Both Jyunuki snapped, their demons screaming to come out and kill him. Sasuke's eyes widened realizing he had crossed the line and was about to get beaten to a bloody pulp when something brought both boys back into control of their demons.

"Sasuke! I'm ready to go!" Sakura called from across the street, her purchases secure in her arms. Naruto and Gaara restrained themselves, for her sake.

"You go on ahead. I'll catch up." Sasuke called sweetly. Then he turned back to the two shinobi before him, his face and tone hardening.

"Don't worry. If you really feel that strongly about her Gaara you can have her, that is, after she has outlived her usefulness and will no longer produce my heirs." (How evil and twisted is that?! I can't believe that came out of our minds!)

"Do you really think Sakura would do that for you? You're not even engaged yet! I know you're not yet or else Sakura would have had a party or something. So you lied when you said she was your faïence!" Naruto said.

"So? She will be one day." Sasuke said.

"No she won't now let me finish!!" Naruto hollered. "Right now, Sakura is blind to your evil deeds because she thinks she is in love with you. Just you wait! Give it a few weeks and she will see right through your rouse!"

"Naruto, I had no idea you had such a large vocabulary." Sasuke said sarcastically. "Besides, come tomorrow nigh she will have no choice but to become my bride."

"What do you mean?" Gaara (Me LOVE Gaara!!) questioned, curious to know the dark intent hidden in his words.

Sasuke smirked again. "Don't you know what tomorrow is?" Neither jyunukis indicated they had any idea what so ever.

The raven haired (butt-head) boy rolled his eyes and continued. "Tomorrow is February 14th Valentines Day. The one night of the year when very cautious, shy girls will give us their virginity no matter what. And since I am going to ask Sakura to be my valentine that means she should find herself pregnant with my child in little more then a month from now." Both Naruto and Gaara tensed, clenching their fists.

"Come on, boys. Be a good sport. After all that's the nature of things. Bitches were meant to have kids." And with that Sasuke went bolting down the street before Naruto and Gaara could grab a hold of him. They both started racing down the street after the evil baka, but before they had caught up to him, Naruto's wrist watch started beeping.

"Crap! I have to go!!" he said, his eyes filled with horror. "If I'm late Grandma Tsunade is going to kill me!" He turned to his friends and put a hand on his shoulder. "Listen Gaara," he said sternly. "Don't do anything until I get back."

"What?! But by then it will be too late!" he growled, his demon nature showing through.

"Then go tell Grandma Tsunade about it! Just don't try and solve it yourself. We both know how rash you can be. Now, I have to go before the old bat sends me back to the academy!" And with that Naruto went racing down the streets towards the gates to Kohana, hoping he was not late fore his mission.

As soon as he was out of sight Gaara turned on his heal (which is a totally sexy thing to do if it is Gaara doing it! ) and walked down the street. Headed in the direction Sasuke had gone.

Naruto's words had not penetrated him at all. His efforts were futile and in vain. Ever since Sasuke had disrespected Sakura like that he had been planning, plotting. He wasn't even Gaara anymore. Shukaku had completely taken over. Screaming in his mind, clouding his judgment. Nothing mattered anymore. Nothing. Nothing except getting to Sakura and freeing his love from her future with the Uchiha.
