Pages of Ecstacy

Chapter Two

Betrothed and Sleep

"W-what the hell…?"Sakura squeaked out taking a half step back in shock or maybe fear. She didn't know, it could have been both.

This could not be happening to her.

"I said are you the owner of this book?" The boy with raven black locks asked again, this time pointing to the brown and silver book laying out open on the kitchen table.

"Wait, how did you guys get into my house?" Sakura asked completely ignoring the boy's earlier question.

"Through the book, how else would you expect us to get here?" The red haired boy answered for his partner

in a deep and dark crackling voice that sounded as if it had not been used in a long time.

"What do you mean through the book, you can't get into my house through a book!" Sakura replied still a bit shaken up that there were two unknown men in her apartment. Two very hot unknown men in her apartment to be more precise. There was no way something like that could happen to her.

"Hn, what do you mean we can't, how else did you think we got here?" The other asked tossing his raven locks out of his face with a haughty flourish.

Sakura stared long and hard at the two, talking a small hesitant steep towards the table. They didn't do anything so she took another steep. When she was only a few feet away she made a lunge for the book and skirted back into the far corner to give it another look over.

The pages that were left open had two pictures of either guy and a long Bio on who they were. The pages looked faded and lighter compared to all the others, as if someone had tried to erase it and had failed to do so completely.

"Holy shit! You guys are from the book!" She cried jumping up and pointing to the two of the like they were demons or mutant aliens from outer space.

"That's what we told you…" The boy with dark onyx eyes said as if it were the most obvious thing. The red head next to him merely nodded in agreement.

Sakura glared at them real quick before looking down at the book in her hands trying to find their names. Pointing to the one with green eyes she slowly read his name. You're Gaara…right."

Gaara nodded a yes to her statement but said nothing. Sakura guess he wasn't someone for conversation. Glancing down at the book again she looked up the other name. And you're …Sasuke."

"Yeah that's my name. Since you know our names it's only fair we know yours. It's be very vexing if we have to call you 'owner of the book' all the time."

Sakura sneered at him and stood up a bit straighter. She wasn't use to people her age talking back to her like this and she didn't like being the meek one. The tone he was using with her was one a master would use with a slave or servant. Someone held in little respect.

Forgetting that he was a creation magically teleported into her room from a book her dead grandma left her, Sakura marched up to the boy and grabbed him by the collar lifting him up to her eye level. Her eyes were hardened into one of her deadliest death glares piercing his soul and making him twitch a bit. She smirked to herself in her mind seeing that she still had the power over this boy.

"You listen to me and you listen to me good buddy, I don't care who you are or where you came from but you do not talk to me in that tone of voice. I will not be disrespected in my own house by someone like you!" She snarled angrily with a wild tone.

Shoving him back onto his butt she let go of his and turned towards Gaara. "That goes for you too Red. I'm not going to take any shit in my house especially by a boy." She spat out the boy part as if it were a curse. She wasn't to found of he opposite gender when it wasn't her father. "You got that?"

Gaara looked over at Sasuke and then back at Sakura and then down at Sasuke and then back at Sakura. His eyes were wide as if he had just witnessed the apocalypse.

"I'm waiting Gaara." She growled placing her wrist on her hips sending him a mini death glare.

"Hai!" He quietly responded, his eyes now glued to Sasuke's trembling form.

Sakura's evil aura and death glare vanished in an instant and her face lit up in a million dollar smile that would give miss universe a run for her money. "Good to hear, no if you boys are hungry I'll fix you some dinner." She chirped skipping into the kitchen like a giddy school girl.

"Sasuke…as scary as that glare looked I think her smile was even scarier." When the raven haired boy did not reply Gaara took a closer look and poked him in the rib cage. "…Sasuke?"

"…So scary." Was all Sasuke could stutter out.

Gaara blinked at Sasuke before stealing a glance at the girl leaning over the stove with a frying pan in hand. A smirk graced his scarcely used lips. 'She's interesting.

"I hope you guys like rice omelets, It's what I was making before the power went out so it was quick and easy to make." Sakura stated calmly walking into the room with two plates in her hands and a third balanced on her arm. She set two of the down on the table and took the third one for herself.

Sasuke pulled himself up like a magnet and thanked her before devouring the food. Gaara nodded his head in thanks as well before following the boy's example.

"Why are you sitting so far away from us? You're at the other end of the table." Sasuke commented after finishing most of him omelet off.

"It's for your own protection." Sakura simply replied as if she were telling him the simplest of things.

Sasuke gave her a puzzled look and decided to scoot closer. Moget instantly reacted scampering up Sakura's back and perching on her shoulder hissing angrily. Sakura blinked in surprise at the extent of malice her pet weasel was showing the young boy. Sure he acted mead towards anyone who got close to her but it was mostly a quick hiss to stop them from advancing. Moget wouldn't stop bearing his teeth or hissing at Sasuke.

Pushing it to the back of her mind she merely shrugged labeling it under 'they're from another world 'thing. "Told ya."

Sasuke scooted back a bit glaring angrily at the animal on her shoulder. "I…Is that a weasel?" He stuttered.

Sakura nodded her head and patted the animal's head trying to calm him down. Moget stopped his hissing but he still gave Sasuke a very sour look with his fangs bared tightly. "Yeah, his name is Moget. He doesn't like it when other people are around me."

"Possessive little thing isn't he?"

Sakura glared lightly at Sasuke. "Nu uh, he's just really protective. He's looking out for me that's all."

Sasuke glared at the animal on her shoulder and her weasel gave him a look of triumph. "Cheeky too…"

Sakura brushed off his comment and pulled the book up onto the table and began to read up on the two boys in front of her. "So Gaara you are from the wind country, a desert like place called Suna am I correct? And Sasuke you are from the fire country more specifically the village hidden in the leaves."

Both boys nodded.

"Now, how do I get you two back there?"

"You can't."

"W-what?" Sakura asked shocked while staring at Gaara with wide emerald green eyes. '

"There is no way to reverse what has been done. You called us here and so here we will stay." Sasuke added trying to edge as close to Sakura as her pet would allow.

"What do you mean I called you here? I didn't call you here, I just left the book open for a few minuets and you guys popped out when the lights went out!"

"That doesn't change anything, we are here now and there is no way for us to go back into the book so we have to stay here. You have no choice in the matter anymore." Said Sasuke.

Sakura felt like she lost a bet…a really big bet. Scooting over to her coroner of woe Sakura began to drown herself in self pity. "It can't be happening. They can't stay with me…"

"Not that I want to interrupt anything but you still haven't told us your name." Sasuke complained appearing behind Sakura with Gaara close behind.

Sakura turned and gave them a lazy sort of stare not really putting enough effort into it in order to make it a glare. "Haruno….no one calls me anything else."

"Haruno? Isn't that your last name. It doesn't sound like a first name." Stated Sasuke.

"It's not."

"Then tell us your first name." Gaara commanded.

Sakura sighed, "No one close enough to me to call me by my first name. Everyone just calls me Haruno or Haruno san or even Haruno sama."

"Who calls you Sama?" Sasuke asked wrinkling up his nose. He didn't like the sound that name had to it.

Sakura turned her head around real slow with a cold serious look. "…Those who fear me…"

"What's you first name?" Asked Gaara.

"You don't need to know that since you will be addressing me as Haruno, we are not that close."

"But you addressed Gaara and I by our first names."

"That's different, you're in my house."

"That doesn't change anything!" Sasuke replied a bit agitated. Sakura smirked to herself labeling him under someone who wasn't use to not getting his way.

"Sakura…" Both Sasuke and Sakura turned to the sleepy eyed red head who spoke out her name only a moment ago.

"What…h-how do you know my name?" Sakura stuttered a bit freaked out at the idea of one of theses boys possible reading her mind.

"Is this not yours?" Gaara asked holding up a work sheet she was working on before she took a break to prepare her dinner. Sakura cursed when she recognized her handwriting spelling out Sakura Haruno next to the little name box.

'Well at lest they can't read minds.'

"Sakura eh? It suites you. I mean with you hair and all." Sasuke snickered leaning back against the wall with his hands behind his head in a relaxed manner. Sakura hated the way he looked like he just won a bet.

"I really don't like you two you know that?" Sakura hissed hugging Moget tightly for comfort.

"Get used to it love, we'll be living here from now on I guess." Said Sasuke

"…."Sakura blinked and a moment of pregnant silence clung heavily to the trio.

Seventeen miles away a pair of bluebirds hastily fled their perch as a loud noise rocked the earth.

"WHAT?!?!" Sakura screamed forcing the two to cover their ears from the volume of noise coming from the scared beyond hope girl in front of them. "Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no way! There is absolutely no way in hell you two are saying here! I won't allow it!"

"What do you mean you won't allow it? You mean you won't house us?" Sasuke asked a bit shocked that a girl was rejecting them so much. Back where he came from all the girls would kill to have him stay in their house for a single night, let alone the rest of his life.

Gaara looked down completely used to this treatment. He didn't expect her to welcome him in open arms or anything like that. Not many people liked the fact that he was even alive. "…hn…"

"I can't have guys staying in my house, my father would kill you….after Moget killed you. You guys both have to go back into the book, now!"

"We told you we can't. Once we are summoned from the book there is no going back, and since you were the one that got us out it's your responsibility to take care of us." Gaara calmly replied looking down.

Sasuke smirked seeing her calm down a bit and release a now breathless Weasel pet. "Not that you mind now that you know it's not trouble to us 'eh love?" Sasuke asked in a deep husky voice wrapping an arm around Sakura's shoulder. He had to admit he found a certain attraction to the girl now in his arms. When she grabbed him by the collar and yelled at him her eyes (eve through they were fixed in a death glare) were hellishly captivating. He couldn't look away from her icy emerald gaze. He liked this kind of aggression in a girl, especial one so attractive.

Sakura growled at his closeness and hardened her eyes. She never had a boy this close to her before for three reasons. One: her father would bash their skulls in if he saw a boy looking at her. Two: Moget wouldn't let anyone near Sakura. Three: no boy wanted to be this close to her. Her father was away and Moget was almost passed out on the floor from lack of air. No, scratch that he was passed out.

"You…pervert! Get your filthy hands off me!" She cried punching him in the jaw and sending him to the other side of the room with a bloody lip.

Gaara chuckled at Sakura's actions towards the Uchiha. Not many people had ever rejected Sasuke in any way but Sakura had rejected him with a bloody lip and a pound in face. She truly was a special one. He had the ghost of this idea from the moment he saw her and only had it grow when he saw they way she resisted Sasuke unlike 99.9 of the worlds female population…(and .01 of the male.) Gaara had finally made up his mind. He liked this Sakura girl and he would make sure she saw past his demonic past and felt the same way towards him.

"Such a brutal welcome…" Sasuke gasped holing his bleeding lip. Thankfully his nose was not injured. He stared at Sakura a moment and she stared back…until her eyes narrowed and she yelled at him again.

"I wasn't welcoming you, baka, stop acting so haughty. Jeez the way you act it's as if the universe was made purely to serve you."

Sasuke simply smirked and stood up brushing away the blood like it was nothing. "Sakura chan… after much thought….I have decided to make you ."

Sakura almost fell over at the statement… "Mine? What do you mean mine?" She squeaked out in surprise.

"My betrothed of course." Sasuke replied as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Gaara shot up from his position on the floor and glared angrily at Sasuke. "You can't Uchiha, I have already chosen her to be the one for myself!"

This time Sakura really did fall over at the statement. "B-but I just met y-you guys…."

"It doesn't matter, when a Shinobi meets the one that is meant for him he knows it in an instant." Sasuke replied not taking his dark glare off his rival in love that stood before him.

"That's correct Uchiha, and I know that Sakura chan is the one meant for me and only me!" Gaara replied with venom lacing his words.

"You are mistaken, Sakura chan is mine, you can't have her!" Sasuke shot back.

"No Sakura chan is mine! I will not allow such a precious flower to fall into such cold hands. You are not worthy of her."

"Look who's talking about worthy badger boy. You really think I would leave such a delicate blossom to someone like you, demon."

Gaara took a steep back and frowned darkly. That was low, real low for him. Gaara and his demon were a no, no subject that was always avoided in any and all conversations. Sasuke smirked in victory knowing he had won the argument.

Sakura meanwhile was under the low built table reading up on the two boys' profiles and their bios. She read about Gaara and his demon and looked up when he heard what Sasuke said about Gaara. "You're a demon container?" She asked crawling out from underneath the table.

Gaara looked down at Sakura and nodded slowly knowing it would be pointless to deny it since she had the book with knowledge about him in her hands.

"…Wow that's so cool! Just like Inuyash, 'except he's only a half demon but his father and brother are still full blood demons so they count… What kind of demon is it? Is it dog? What color is it? Dose it resemble an animal? Can I see it? Dose it eat humans?"

It was times like this Sakura seemed to transform back into a child. Whenever she got lost in her fantasy and fiction, or manga and anime to be more accurate. She seemed to forget her cold heart and worries and fall back into the days she were a carefree child full of innocence.

"Uhh he is a Tanuki, his name is Shukaku…" Gaara stuttered surprised that someone would find such an interest in his curse. Most people hated him for it.

"Oooo a raccoon dog. That's so cool! How long has he been with you, dose he help you out and give you powers and make you strong or something?" Sakura asked staring up at him with big glistening eyes.

Gaara looked down at his side and found a mini gourd keychain dangling from the side of his black pants. His normal sized gourd must have been left back in his word since it was so big. Focusing on the small object it began to dissipate and melt into sand, from there he commanded it to take on various shapes. Before settling into a cherry blossom flower.

"Wow that was so cool." Sakura cooed watching as it settled back into a gourd shape hanging at his waist.

"Thank you Sakura chan. I'm glad you liked it." Gaara replied sending a smirk at Sasuke who merely snorted and looked away with his hands crossed over his chest.

"Well I guess since nothing can be done about it now you guys can stay here for the time being. No real harm in it anyway…" Sakura concluded placing her hands on her hips and looking down the hall towards the spare bedroom. "My mom and dad are away so I have two empty rooms you guys can use."

Sasuke and Gaara looked down the hallway and looked over the two available beds. "Dibs on the double." Sasuke cried rushing into the master bedroom.

"Hey I wanted that one, you can have the other one Uchiha." Gaara replied with a heated glare.

"Too bad, you don't even sleep remember?" Sasuke shot back while sticking his tongue out.

"Yes I do! Ever since the seal was finished I have been able to sleep baka."

"Well you don't need that much room. I do."

"Will you two stop your bickering! For Pocky's sake you both sound like little three year olds fighting over a toy. If both of you can't work this out on your own I'll sleep there and you two can both get single beds." Sakura interjected pounding them both on the head.

Sasuke and Gaara both gave her dejected looks before crawling out like little whipped puppies.

Sakura sighed and removed a sleeping Moget from her shoulder and hung him in a hammock in the living room before returning to her parents bedroom to change and get ready for bed.

"Here are some of my dad's old Pj's from when he lost a lot of weight from food poisoning. They should fit you guys." Sakura said handing both boys a nightshirt and a pair of pajama pants.

Gaara and Sasuke both mumbled a thank you with heavy blushes staining their cheeks refusing to meet her eyes. Sakura found this confusing but finally figured it out when she saw what she was wearing. One of her dad's old collage shirts with a low neck line and a pair of knee length shorts. Sakura laughed nervously and with a quick goodnight dashed into her parent's room.

Sakura sighed pulling out a spare uniform she had stashed away in her parent's bedroom and set it out next to her black messenger bag with all her completed homework.

"I guess I'll just have to leave those two here with Moget while I go to school. I could ask to be let out early but I don't want to fall behind in my studies. At least tomorrow is Saturday, Sunday I'll be free to watch them."

Sakura stopped in her tracks when she realized what exactly she just said. "Watch them… Yeah I'm totally looking forward to that. Who am I kidding? School will be like a release for me. I still can't believe what those two said…"

Sasuke simply smirked and stood up brushing away the blood like it was nothing. "Sakura chan…After much though….I have decided to make you mine."

Sakura almost fell over at the statement… "Mine? What do you mean mine?" She squeaked out in surprise.

"My betrothed of course." Sasuke replied as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Gaara shot up from his position on the floor and glared angrily at Sasuke. "You can't Uchiha, I have already chosen her to be the one for myself!"

"And I'm only sixteen. What would my father think if he knew two complete strangers decided that I would have to marry them? No scratch that, what would my father think if he knew those two are living with me now?" A mental image of her father beating up the last guy that looked at her perversely with a giant mallet that he seemed to pull out of thin air flashed through her mind. "Great…."

Sakura sighed setting her white and red strawberry dotted toothbrush down and turned out the light before pulling back the cover's and snuggling into her parent's large queen size bed. She liked all the extra room and made a mental note to use their bed when they were away more often. Her eyes became heavy after a few moments and her mind began to drift when a weight settling down at her right brought her back to reality. She felt the covers being pulled back a bit and a body sliding in next to her. She jumped when she felt something snake around her waist possessively.

"What th- S-Sasuke? What are you doing here?" Sakura hissed surprised to find him snuggled up next to her. Her face currently taking on a deep scarlet blush at the contact. 'T-too close! Way too close!'

"Couldn't sleep." He mumbled in a husky sleepish tone snuggling deeper into her back.

Sakura squeaked when she felt his grip tighten around her waist and his warm breath fan across her exposed neck. "Y-you c-can't. Go back to your bed." She hissed only to be met with silence. Sasuke was asleep.

Her panic only increased when another weight was set on the other side of the bed. She looked up to see a drowsy Gaara climbing in under the covers on her free side. "G-Gaara? Why are y-you here?"

"Hn…" He mumbled clearly closer to sleep that Sasuke was. Burying his head in the crook of her neck and snuggled his well toned body up against hers he wrapped an arm around her waist as well. His hold on her no less possessive that that of the raven haired boy's.

Sasuke seemed to sense another presence moving in on his precious treasure and pulled his equally toned body closer to Sakura's while draping a leg over her own with a low growl. The red haired sand man flinched in his sleep and drove his head deeper into the crook of Sakura's neck while entwining one of his legs with her own. His grip on her waist tightening as a growl of his own escaped his lips.

Sakura shivered as his breath sent shiver down her spine. "Y-you g-guys need to go back to your own beds and l-leave m-me alone." Sakura stuttered trying to break free only to meet with defeat. Their grips on her small petit body were too strong for fear of someone else stealing their precious flower away from them.

She mused trying to break free of their grasp however possessive and overly protective it might be.

"A-are you guys e-even awake anymore? I need my room and you guys n-need to go back to your beds." Sakura stuttered only to meet with the two boy's silence once again.

The petal haired daughter breathed out in defeat giving up on trying to break free of the iron grasp. Being as short and thin as she was Sakura was no match when it came to their strength. It wasn't uncomfortable in their arms, in fact it was very warm and protective, like a big fluffy blanket. She hadn't felt this secure in something in a long time…it was a nice change.

"Okay you guys win, but just for tonight. After that back to your own beds." Sakura mumbled settling down and allowing herself to drift into a sweet dreamless slumber. 'I just hope Moget doesn't wake up and find me before I get out of here.' She though before the rhythm of their breathing completely lulled her in to sleep.

Sakura yawned softly and opened her eyes trying to roll over out of bed only to be pulled back and run into a rock hard chest. "Eep." Sakura squeaked looking up to meet with tousled raven locks.

"Morning love." Sasuke yawned huskily, cracking open a single obsidian colored eye.

"W-what?" Sakura stuttered as the events of yesterday came crashing back to her in an instant. She was cut off from uttering anything else my another pair of strong arms pulling her away from to boy to her right.

"Back off Uchiha." Gaara growled darkly pulling Sakura back against his well toned chest.

"Gaara, let go of Sakura chan." Sasuke hissed sitting up and glaring his famous death glare at the said boy.

Gaara simply smirked and sat up, pulling Sakura on to his lap. "Maybe I don't want to…Uchiha."

"I said let go badger boy. When did you get here anyway?" Sasuke hissed angrily while brushing a few stray raven locks out of his line of vision.

"Baka, I've been here all night. I snuck in right after you did. Did you honestly think I would leave my Sakura chan alone with you for an entire night?"

"What? You were here all night with Sakura chan and I? You can't do that, that's stealing my idea."

"So, that doesn't mean anything. You weren't suppose to come into her room in the first place. I told you Sakura chan was mine. You can't have her Uchiha."

"Shut up, I claimed her first so Sakura chan is mine."

Sakura's face was covered in a deep scarlet color as she listened to the two toss insults at each other over her. Struggling out of the red haired sand man's embrace she crawled off the bed and picked up her uniform. Looking back she smirked seeing that both boys were too wrapped up in their argument to notice her departure. Taking her uniform she heading into her room's bathroom and proceeded to take a quick yet refreshing shower before either of the two noticed her missing.

"Moget should be awake by now." She mused to herself steeping out of the shower and drying herself off with a dark black and red stripped towel. Dressing in her uniform in record time Sakura wrapped her towel around her dripping wet pink hair and exited the bathroom.

She could still hear the two boys dukeing it out with their words in her parent's room and continued to brush her damp hair before pulling it back into a loose braid. "Ugh Time for a haircut, it's getting long."

Then Sakura head something she hadn't before. Silence. "Maybe the killed each other off." She mused hopeful. That hope was killed with the chaos that erupted seconds later.

"Damn it she's gone!" Gaara cried finally noticing the absent weight in his lap.
"It's your fault badger boy. You must have scared her off with your morning breath or something."

"Me, it had to be you. No one would want to wake up and have to see you first thing in the morning."

"Yeah only 99.9 percent of the female population. (and .01 of the male.) It had to be you."

"Shove it Uchiha!" Gaara cried tackling the rave haired boy to the floor in an attempt to either strangle him or deliver a giant bear hug to the neck. Most likely the first.

"If you two are done playing homo there on the floor you could join me for breakfast you know." Sakura stated in a dry voice from the doorway. They looked and acted like little kids when around her.

"Sakura chan!" The two exclaimed in union separating as if the other were on fire.

"I hate that name." Sakura muttered turning towards the kitchen to prepare some breakfast for the three of them as Gaara and Sasuke stumbled out of the bedroom behind her.

Her pet weasel scampered out of his hammock and scurried up her back and wrapped himself around her neck nuzzling his cheek against her own, as if asking where she was last night.

"I'm sorry baby, You were already asleep when I went to bed." She cooed pulling out various ingredients needed for their breakfast. Sasuke took one look at Moget and glared at the cheeky little animal. He wished Sakura would talk to him that way.

"Why are you dressed like that? Are you going somewhere?" Gaara asked from behind the petal haired girl, eying her uniform with uneasiness as he was poured a cup of green herbal tea.

Unlike the rest of the girls in her school Sakura had requested to wear a boy's uniform instead of a girl's. The skirt scared her too much. It was against the rules for a girl to cross dress but for Sakura they made an exception (after she unleashed her death glare upon her superiors.)

Her Uniform consisted of a white long sleeved shirt tucked underneath a dark gray vest and a long button down jacket with silver cufflinks in the shape if a star. Her necktie was a dark gray color secured tightly by a more elaborate Silver star. There was a pocket over her left Brest with her school's crest sewn in silver thread. Gaara noticed that her jacket was tailored to fit her small slender frame in a flattering way since it was so long and tucked in. "It's a uniform. I have to wear it whenever I go to school. My mom and dad want me to go to this fancy privet school that makes you wear such a fancy get up." Sakura replied calmly.

"School…? Are you going there today?" Sasuke asked eagerly hoping she would say no.

"Oh course I have school, It's Saturday. We have to go to school every other Saturday of the month. I have tomorrow off though since it's a Sunday. "

"But what are we suppose to do while you're gone? Can't we come with you?" Sasuke asked or more liked whined, he sounded so desperate. Almost like a totally different boy from the dark mysterious man that held her possessively last night. A skiver ran up her spin at the memory of him holding her so tightly while he breathed down her neck…

'No bad Sakura, bad dirty evil thoughts. Bad.'

"No you guys have to stay here. I'll by back by 3:45 maybe 4:00, not too late."

"What are we suppose to do with you gone?" Gaara asked dryly as Sakura placed a plate of food in front of them after they were seated at her table. You could tell he was irritated about Sakura leaving them, or mainly him, he could care less about her being away from the Uchiha.

"I don't know, watch T.V. or something. Channel seven usually plays old Sailor Moon repeats until noon then it's those newer anime shows I only watch T.V. at night so I don't know what they play after that." Sakura mumbled stuffing her text books into her black and gray messenger bag.

"Why can't we go with you to school?" Sasuke asked finishing off the last of his breakfast.

"Because you can't that's why."

"D-demo That's not a real answer!"

"It's the answer I'm giving you now shut up." Sakura replied turning to glare at Sasuke who was currently eating away her reaming patience.

"Well I guess we'll see you around 3:45 then." Gaara calmly replied politely sipping his green tea.

Sakura instantly brightened up and Smiled towards the red haired sand user. "Thank you for understanding Gaara. I'll see you soon. Dewa mata suguni ne, Gaara, Moget. And Sasuke…." Sasuke brightened up thinking Sakura might just give his a special goodbye. …Abayo."

Sasuke fell over and Gaara smirked at the rude goodbye Sakura gave the raven haired boy. "S-Sakura chan, why did you have to give me such a rude goodbye?"

"Because you are being annoying and I think I told you I don't like being called that." Sakura stated slipping her shoes on and opening the door. Moget scampered into her room to watch from the window.

"Oh, and there is one more thing. If anyone comes to the door don't answer it, if anyone calls for me don't respond and above all do not leave this apartment to go outside for any reason what so ever. I can't let anyone find out that two guys from a book are living with me for the time being. That would not be good. You guys understand?"

Both foreign males nodded a yes in her direction and Sakura breathed in heavily. "If both of you guys are good I guess I could take the bus home so I could get here faster."

"Whatever is easier for you Sakura chan." Gaara replied politely setting his tea cup down.

"Yeah…just hurry back." Sasuke added in a more mature tone. Before Sakura could blink Sasuke had appeared behind her and wrapped his strong arms around her waist drawing her back into his embrace. "Because I'll be missing you like crazy until you get back."

Sakura tried to struggle out of his hold only to feel another pair of arms wrap around her chest and a face nuzzling up next to her own. "G-Gaara?"

"I can't wait till my betrothed returns to me." He darkly stated whispering in her ear. She yelped slightly when she felt a tug on her earlobe and found out it was Sasuke.

"S-SSasuke?" She squeaked as Gaara continued to nuzzle into her neck with an animalistic grow rippling through his throat as he grabbed her tighter. Her collar was getting in his way and he didn't like that.

"Sakura chan you will belong to one of us soon enough, don't forget that when you are away." Sasuke purred burying his head in her scented locks. Her scent was severely intoxicating and he was having a hard time restraining himself from the sweet bliss of jasmine and cherry blossoms.

"Y-you guys, I need to get to class now." Sakura squeaked slipping out of their hold just barely with a crimson stain covering her cheeks. "I-I have to go now."

"Remember Sakura…" Sasuke started looking up through his low hanging raven bangs.

"…don't forget us." Gaara added gazing at Sakura with a intense look in his sea foam green eyes.
