The sexiest couple in Naruto is Naruto and Gaara and you all know it. :3 hehehe. Enjoyz!!

Gaara had gone quite some time without feeding on anyone. The blonde was all he could think about…All that he wanted. No matter how good anyone else smelled he couldn't...The blonde was all he ever had to have…And he needed him now.

Naruto was sitting at a table off to the side with his band mates but his attention was more drawn to the local bands on stage than his friend's conversation. Their band was going to be up in a few minutes and their new singer wasn't here yet.

Naruto fidgeted and turned to his friends. "How are we going to go on without our singer?" Neji, Sasuke, and Kiba stared at Naruto, all of their faces showing indifference.

"Don't freak Naruto. It's not like we can't come back tomorrow." Kiba waved his hand in Naruto's direction as if to wave Naruto's worries away. Naruto's eyebrows furrowed.

Naruto sighed in frustration and jumped into the crowd. He stood, just watching the band on stage right now. It was an all girls band. His girl best friends too. Hinata, the bass guitar, Sakura, the singer, Ino the guitarist, and Tenten, the drummer.

Naruto grinned at them and waved. They all winked at him and Hinata made a small wave back.

Naruto smiled and closed his eyes, trying to swing with the beat when he felt arms wrap around his waist. Immediately he tensed and his eyes snapped open. He tried to pull away but the arms tightened their grip. Naruto's strength wasn't enough. But for some reason, another part of Naruto didn't WANT to pull away…

Naruto kept his eyes on the stage as he felt the person behind him put their head on his shoulder. He stiffened even more and his heartbeat sped up.

"What's your name?" A slightly husky voice asked. It sounded like this person hadn't had water in days. Even so, the voice made Naruto shudder and his heartbeat sped up.

"Naruto." Naruto's mind was reeling. Had he just told a perfect stranger his name? That wasn't a very smart thing to do on his part.

Naruto's eyes strained to see the person behind him as he heard a growl emit from their throat. "Naruto…I'm…Gaara…" A long pause. "Would you mind if I stood in for your singer tonight?"

"Huh? How did you-" Before Naruto could finish his sentence the arms that were once wrapped around his waist were gone.

For a minute, Naruto stood there, confused. He sighed and dragged himself back to the table where his friends were in deep conversation about how you're supposed to eat a strawberry cake.

"You eat the strawberry first! That's the best part!" Kiba yelled at Neji. Neji's face remained calm as he replied. "Yes, and it's because the strawberry is the best part that it must be eaten last." Sasuke seemed bored of the whole conversation. Naruto doubted he even cared about how to eat a strawberry cake.

Kiba frowned and turned to Naruto. "What do you think Naruto? I'm right aren't I?" Neji stared at Naruto, waiting for his reply.

Naruto saw his opening. "Hey…um…I found us a new singer." Sasuke looked up. "Who?" Naruto's eyes widened and he started fidgeting. "I don't remember his name."

"Let's welcome Jinchuuriki to the stage!" A loud applause erupted. Naruto sighed in relief and he grinned. "Let's get on stage!" Naruto yelled proudly. Before the others could ask him any more questions he had disappeared behind the stage. They looked at each other warily and followed him.

A figure was standing behind some equipment, hiding his face as he talked to Naruto. Naruto handed the person the lyrics as the others ran on stage. "I know it's practically impossible but memorize as much as you can. We'll just play solos over the parts you don't know." Naruto eyed the figure one more time before running on stage.

Sasuke looked at Naruto expectantly. "Where is he?" Naruto shrugged and Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Let's just start. I think he'll just walk on or something…" Naruto said. Sasuke looked at Neji and Kiba who just shrugged. "Whatever." Sasuke grumbled.

"One. Two. Three. Four!" The crowd applauded as their instruments broke out in song. They all smiled at each other, electricity buzzing around them.

And then, suddenly, the red head Naruto had encountered in the alleyway was at the microphone, singing. Naruto's breath caught. This man…was undoubtedly gorgeous…and he was the same man who cornered him in the alleyway…Impossible.

The red head's voice completely shook the crowd. They were screaming, applauding, fainting and all because of his husky yet smooth voice. It was unlike anything the crowd had ever heard.

Kiba and Neji smiled at Sasuke, completely excited about this new singer. Sasuke smirked. He couldn't help but like this singer too.

When they finished their song, the crowd was still jumping and screaming. Naruto didn't notice. His eyes were glued to the red head.

Kiba got up and joined everyone in the front as they all did a dramatic bow. The crowd was still applauding and Kiba was beaming.

Backstage

Naruto was standing in the hallway staring at the red head leaning on the wall directly across from him on the opposite side of the hallway. The red head stood with his arms crossed and one foot on the wall.

"Was it that bad?"

Naruto blinked. "Oh. No." A grin appeared on his face. "That was awesome! The crowd loved you."

The rest of the band suddenly appeared next to Gaara and Naruto. "Yeah! That was awesome! You have to be our new singer!" Kiba practically yelled, draping his arm over Gaara's shoulders. Neji nodded in agreement.

"What's your name anyway?" Sasuke said, his eyes checking out the red head's details. Blood red hair, tattoo above the left eye reading "Ai" or love, and eyes with dark rings of insomnia around them.

"Gaara."

Naruto immediately got a headache when he heard the red head's name. His heartbeat was speeding up and the headache became a stabbing pain.

"You guys were great tonight! We're gonna get a lot more gigs now!" Everyone looked up to see a man with silver hair, a mask on his face, and an orange book glued to his hand. Even though they couldn't see his face they all knew he was grinning.

"Definitely!" Kiba gave Kakashi a thumbs up.

"This is our manager, Kakashi." Neji explained to Gaara.

"Alright. Well I'll see you guys later." Kakashi disappeared instantly. Everyone blinked but waved it off.

"Yeah. I'm gonna be heading home too." Kiba did a dramatic yawn. "I'll drive you." Neji raised his hand. "Mind if I join in this jamboree?" Sasuke raised his hand. Neji nodded. "You need a ride Naruto? Gaara?" Naruto shook his head and waved his friends off.

When they were alone Naruto considered asking the red head about the alley incident. "Um…about the alley-"

"I was lost and was asking you for directions." Gaara interrupted Naruto. A sheepish look appeared on Naruto's face.

"Oh really!? Oh...Alright." Awkward silence. "Um…I'll get going then." Naruto began walking off.

"Hey." Naruto turned around to look at the suddenly talkative Gaara. "I don't have anywhere to stay. Mind if I stay at your place tonight?" Gaara looked at Naruto, his face blank. Naruto shifted feet, wondering if it was wise to let a total stranger in your house. Then again…he didn't want to lose their new singer.

"Uh…yeah…I guess that's alright for tonight…" Naruto muttered. Gaara nodded and followed Naruto out the back door and to the blonde's car. All the time, Gaara was looking at Naruto's neck, imaging how delicious that blood must taste…
