A/N: Back! Still do not own Naruto!
Thanks for reviewing! I'm glad you guys like the story. Oh and I actually didn't know that. How interesting.
Red Sand"Gaara. It's a pleasure to see you." Tsunade said with a bow. Gaara did not reply but bowed.
"I hear you've recovered nicely. Now, please tell me how you ended up in the Konaha forest, poisoned.
Gaara paused, and Tsunade swore she saw a blush. He shifted from one foot to the other and cleared his throat.
"Well…as my mail stated, Suna is running short on medic ninjas, most are away on missions. I let my guard down yesterday and I inhaled some poison that Kankurou
(A/N: I think that's how his name is spelled. I'm too lazy to check. Xx) was developing. Unfortunately, my brother left to find herbs in Konoha's forest a few days ago, so I thought I could catch up to him and get the antidote. I did not succeed as you can see."
" I can send some medic Nin to Suna if you would like." She suggested. Gaara nodded. 'Yeah sure..." He replied to the Hokage.
"But on poision, the next best thing to me would be Sakura. I'll send her to check up on Suna every week." She said writing down this mission on a scroll.
Gaara nodded and turned to left, as he realized that the meeting was over. He approached the pink haired medic sitting on a chair. Pausing, almost about to say something but not, he kept walking.
"Goodbye Gaara-san!" She called out with a wave. Gaara turned, slightly confused. The people who had once respected him purely out of fear stopped when he was rescued and no longer contained a demon. Now, he was even more alone then before.
He waved back and started to walk once more, a small smile residing on his face. Taking a run, he had made it back to Suna within two days. Where his sister and Brother, who thought he had killed him with the toxins, greeted him
"Gaara, this is why you don't touch my stuff..." Kankurou said with a grin. Gaara ignored him, as usual and left to go to the Kazekage tower.
"Still a prick I see…" Temari muttered sighing but also headed towards the tower. She needed to have a talk with her little brother about behavior.
"All right Tsunade-sama." Sakura said with a nod, accepting her mission. Boy was she pooped.
Walking out of the office and into her own house, she turned on the lights and threw her bag down.
Walking down the hall, she started to take off layers of clothing until she was almost completely nude and had made it to the bathroom, turning on the tap; she got in for a steaming hot shower. How relaxing.
Humming to herself, Sakura then wiped her body off with a towel. Putting on her clothes once more, she walked into the kitchen.
"Let's see…tomatoes…eggs, rice… She said out loud, hmm, maybe she could make steamed rice and eggs, along with a side of tomatoes.
Flipping the heat on, she started to cook, when a knock at the door interrupted her. Walking to the door, she was surprised.
"Haruno…" He said, the voice was almost lust filled, and gave her shivers.
"Yes…" She asked him with a slanted up eyebrow. What was Gaara doing there?
"I need help." He said simply, extending his arm, which was badly cut, and blood was pouring out.
"Holy Shit!" She called out and healing it with her chakra, before noticing he hadn't left yet.
"Would you like to come in?" She asked him not wanting to seem rude. Gaara entered the building. He noticed the smell of shampoo almost instantly, as Sakura shut the door and left for the kitchen.
"Come in Gaara-san." She motioned to the kitchen door, and Gaara followed. Almost like a lost puppy.
"Why did you travel all this way to get help from me? Tsunade sent some medics over to Suna." Sakura asked him cutting up the tomatoes.
Gaara shifted uncomfortably. Why did he? Not a fast thinker, he said the first thing that came to his mind.
"They were away." Sakura raised an eyebrow. 5 medics, on top of those in Suna were all away on missions? Sounded suspicious.
"All of them?" She asked and threw the tomatoes into the frying pan.
"Yes." He said simply, not feeling he needed to clarify himself anymore. Sakura left it at that, and started to stir the frying pan. Sighing, she glanced at the clock.
"Would you like to stay for dinner?" She asked him, he was already there anyways. How could Suna's guards just let the Kazekage leave as he pleases? But then again, most people feared him.
"I can't." He said and stood, starting to leave. Sakura turned and was about to wave, but sadly, his steps were a lot lighter then she thought, as he was right behind her. Slamming her face into his shoulder, she whimpered slightly in pain.
Gaara almost laughed at this but raised a hand to brush her hair slightly. "Thank you once again Haruno…I'll see you next week." He said in the same voice as before and left the house.
Sakura stood there, a blush creeping onto her face. Was Gaara-san flirting with her?
Shaking the feeling off, she started to eat.
"Where were you?" Temari asked her bother as he made it back into Suna around midnight. She was on guard duty and the city was in a panic when the people heard their Kazekage was missing. Again.
"None of your concern." He said simply, walking down the streets, ignoring the muttering of the people.
"You can't leave Suna when you please Gaara!" She shouted following her younger brother.
"Remember what I said Temari? Even if you are my sibling… I'll kill you if you get in my way." He hissed out once more, before proceeding to walk away from her.
Temari's eyes widened and she glared. Impudent runt. Brushing a hand through her blonde locks, she walked away in the opposite direction back to guard duty.
That night, or I should say, early morning, Gaara got a firm speech by the council about leaving the land. Finally, they let him go around three am.
Gaara sighed and stepped into his house, it was lonely, dirty and plain. But it sufficed. He didn't need much. Lord knows Gaara wasn't much of a materialist.
Washing off the mud and dirt from his face in the sink, Gaara changed into a pair of pajamas and climbed into his bed, where he slept and did not dream. He never did.
A/N: Another filler. Sigh, I'm getting really tired of those. Oh well, next chapter will be lots of fluff…you'll see.
Please review, I won't update until I reach 10 reviews. That or someone will have to beg.
P.S-I wonder how many people read the A/N's.
