Hearing Demons Chapter 3- The room
Gaara carried the kunoichi to the room he knew Tsukasa was and kicked the door open none to gently.
"Kazekage-sama!" the large man said, jumping up from the table he was sitting at.
Gaara laid Sakura down in a chair, careful not to wake her. "Tsukasa, I was told that you were rude to this girl"
"No sir. I was simply"
Gaara didn't give him a chance to explain, his sands jumping to suround the man.
"If I ever here of you mistreating any woman ever again..." the sands became tighter as Gaara held out a hand, fingers outstreatched. One finger closed and there was a loud crunch
an arm was shattered.
Terror and pain filled Tsukasa's face as he screamed. "Never again Sir!" he managed to sob out.
The sands dropped and Garra once again picked up the still passed out Sakura, leaving the now former ANBU to sob on the floor.

When they were some ways down the hall Sakura opened her eyes. "I heard screaming," she said in a still sleepy voice.
"It was nothing of importaince"
HE GOT WHAT HE DESERVED.
She narrowed her eyes in suspicion. "Did you do anything to that ANBU that was showing me around"
Gaara and Shukaku stayed silent.
She sighed but wrapped her arms around his neck to make things on him a little easier. It didn't. Her body was light enough that he could lift her with one arm and all her arms were
doing were making a slight blush appear on his ears.
They were both silent for a while but Gaara didn't even realize untill her arms went limp around his neck that she had fallen asleep again.
YOU SHOULD PUT HER IN THAT ROOM ACROSS FROM YOURS.
'Where else would I put her'
KNOWING YOU IN SOME SMALL UNFURNISHED ROOM 2 FLOORS AWAY.
Gaara scowled, causing a young maid to squeek from across the hall.
When they reached the room where she was going to be sleeping, which was so convieniently right across the hall from Gaara's, he gently pushed the door open, not wanting to have
to replace 2 doors in one day.
He walked over to the bed and used one arm to hold sakura up and the other to throw the sheets back. He then layed her down.
Since none of this woke her he left, going to his own room.

Sakura shivered in her sleep. Her eyes fluttered open to reveal sleepy jade eyes.
'Suna is so cold at night'
She looked around for an open window but didn't find one. 'It must be really cold'
Well duh, it's the middle of winter and you're in the desert, Inner Sakura said.
'But it's so hot during the day!'
So do something about it.
Sakura lay in the huge bed, a small thought in the back of her head wondering how she got there. She shivered again. Climbing out of the bed she slipped silently through the big doors.
Was everything about this place huge? She looked around the hall. When she sensed no one she quickly ran across the hall and when silently into the room there. She turned the handle
so the door wouldn't make a clicking sound.
'Oh yea. This room is much warmer'
She walked on tiptoe to where she thought the bed would be, leaving the lights off so she wouldn't be detected. When her legs hit the soft, comforter covered side of the bed.
'YES' she inwardly congradulated herself. She tossed back the blankets and climbed in. She was asleep in moments.

Gaara stiffened at the sound of his door opening. Of course he was wide awake but the sound of the door brought him out of some stupor. Quickly masking his chakra he brought
a kunai out from under his pillow.
"Oh yea. This room is much warmer," came Sakura's voice.
He so badly wanted to think, 'Oh shit,' but resisted the urge. He kept his thoughts silent.
"YES," came her voice again.
He stayed completely still as he felt the comforter being thrown back and another weight settling into the bed.
When he heard the deep breathing signaling her sleeping he relaxed, just a little.
He looked over at the sleeping figure. All he saw was a lump due to the extream dark. Leaning in closer he made out her face.
SHE'S BEAUTIFUL.
'I know'
THEN WHY DON'T YOU TAKE WHAT YOU WANT LIKE YOU ALWAYS USED TO.
'I don't know. I want this one time to be different'
ARE YOU ADMITTING YOU FEEL SOMETHING FOR THIS GIRL?
'I think I am'
GOOD.
'What's that supposed to mean'
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET YOU TO SAY THAT. NOW IF SHE'LL DO THE SAME.
'Wait, you've been playing both of us since the beginning'
OF COURSE.
'Why? What do you get from my happiness'
CAN I DO ANYTHING WITHOUT YOU BEING SUSPICIOUS?
'No'
THAT'S GOOD TOO. WHAT I GAIN IS MORE POWER. WHEN YOU'RE HAPPY AND HAVE SOMETHING TO PROTECT YOU'RE THE STRONGEST YOU CAN
EVER BE. WHEN YOU HAVE POWER, I HAVE POWER. I GAIN THROUGH YOU.
'I knew you were after something'
YOU DON'T SOUND LIKE YOU CARE.
'I don't'
They went silent then. Gaara slowly reached foreward and caressed her cheek.
"Sleep well my cherry blossom"
