Alright So here's part one
Tell me what you think about it
Disclaimer: I only own Rue
Part 1
"Do you want to play with me?"
It had been an innocent question. But for some reason it earned the little girl horrified looks from all the other children. Rue was confused about why it wasn't okay to try and get along with the red haired boy who was always alone. She kept forgetting his name, but it hurt her to see him all alone.
He looked up at her confused.
"You want to play with me?" He asked, staring up at her.
"Is it really that strange?" She asked as she smiled and sat next to him. "I'm Rue. My mommy told me I can do whatever I want as long as it makes overs happy. And I think playing with you is going to make you happy."
He kept staring at her as she spoke, almost as if it was completely unheard of.
"So what's your name?" She asked, hoping she wasn't coming on too strong. She didn't want to frighten him off.
"I'm Gaara." He still sounded confused, dumbfounded even, about her interacting with him, but it didn't stop him from smiling lightly as he introduced himself.
Rue's smile brightened as he smiled. She was completely ignoring the other children.
"Let's play in the sandbox, Gaara." She suggested.
While Rue and Gaara played the other children went home. Rue couldn't stop smiling as she and Gaara built a large sandcastle.
By the time they finished the sun had begun to set.
"Rue honey. It's dinnertime." A woman called from across the playground.
But the call made Rue frown. She wanted to keep playing with Gaara.
"Okay mommy." Rue called. She could tell Gaara was frowning as well. So she wrapped her arms around Gaara's shoulders and gave him a light kiss on the cheek.
"Night, Gaara." She said as he stared at their creation, blushing.
She released him and ran to her mother
"I see you made a new friend." Her mother said playfully as they walked home
"It's too soon to tell, but I'd like to think Gaara and I will be the best of friends." Rue said hopefully, not noticing her mother stiffen up at his name.
