Yay! Update! Thanks for the reviews! I love them still! This chapter might seem random; I really don't know what to do?
Disclaimer: Me no own Naruto.
Sakura cuddled with her panda while they walked into a restaurant. It was getting late, and the trio was getting hungry.
They made their way over to a booth. Temari was about to sit with Sakura, but was shocked when Gaara took the sat next to her. The group remained silent. A waitress came over to take their orders. Sakura caught her sneaking glances at Gaara. She felt the tiniest pang of jealousy.
(Just be creative on what they order. I really have no idea what to put.)
No words were exchanged. Silence filled in around them. It was uncomfortable. None of them had much to say. Nothing. Shy glances were exchanged, that's about it.
"Ugh! The silence is driving me mad!" Sakura bust out. She attracted strange stares. She blushed.
"If it's driving you mad, then talk." Gaara said without looking at her.
"I don't know what to say. Do you have anything to say Panda-chan?" Sakura asked innocently. She heard a growl next to her.
She smirked over in his direction. He glared.
"Panda-chan? Where did that come from?" Temari asked in an amused voice.
Sakura held up her panda doll. "He reminds me of a panda. It's so cute!" she said.
Temari examined the doll, then her younger brother.
"You have a point; he does look like the panda." Temari said.
Gaara grew frustrated, and refused to talk the rest of the time. The girls giggled and finished their meals.
Sakura was about to reach for her money, to pay for the meal, when she felt sand restricting her wrist. She looked hover to Gaara and gave him a puzzled look.
"I've got it." He said and put some bills down on the table. She smiled.
"Thanks sweetie."
"Sweetie?" he questioned.
"Yea. I'm your fiancé; I'll call you anything I want." She said triumphantly.
"No you won't. Don't call me that."
"Fine Panda-chan." She retorted. H glared once again. Letting out a sigh he said back.
"I told you not to call me that either." He said. She pouted at him.
"If I can call you Panda-chan, then you can call me whatever you want." She bargained.
"No."
"Please?"
"No."
"Pretty please?" Sakura stuck out her lip and made her bright jade eyes glossy.
"No."
"Pretty please with a cherry on top?"
"No." he wasn't breaking.
"Pretty please with a cherry and hot fudge and whipped cream and sprinkle and caramel and strawberries…"
"Fine!" he yelled, attempting to shut her up. God, he was supposed to spend the rest of his life with her?
"Sweet!" she said happily. "So what are you going to call me?" she asked.
Gaara looked over at Sakura but never said a word. He seemed to be thinking. He looked at her intently.
"Annoying." He stated simply. Sakura frowned and looked down at the table.
"Not that. Anything but that." She said quietly, her voice seemed to be close to breaking. Gaara turned curious. Temari too. How could one word bring a happy girl down so fast?
"Fine. Let me think, and I'll tell you." He said.
"Ok. Let's get home." She said and stood up, picked up her bags and made towards the exit.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
The three walked through the door to their home. They went their separate ways, Sakura went upstairs.
She dropped her bags off in her bedroom and walked back out. She was thinking about what Gaara had called her.
Annoying. Maybe I really am annoying. First Sasuke, then Gaara. What do I do wrong?
She thought about this as she walked down the stairs and into the living room. She didn't notice the body in front of her and bumped right into it.
She ricochet off of the body and looked up, to see Kankuro grinning down at her.
"Oh, sorry." She said.
"Hey. Aren't you that girl from the chunnin exams?" He asked. He studied her more. "Oh yea! I remember you! Sakura right?" he asked.
"Yea, I'm Sakura." She answered.
"Hm. So what are you doing here?" he asked.
"Oh. I'm here on business for my village. I'm going to be here staying with you guys for a really long time." She noted.
Kankuro smiled. "Really?" he said. "Then maybe we can go out sometime." He said. Sakura giggled.
"I don't think that would be the greatest idea." She said. He looked confused.
"Why not?" he asked. She smiled.
"It would be wrong to date your future sister-in-law." She said, and waited for him to process the information.
Kankuro thought for a moment. He scratched his head and burst out. "You and Temari are lesbians?" he shouted.
Sakura sweat-dropped. Boy, no one had hope in Gaara did they?
"No. I'm marring your other sibling." She said. Kankuro looked bug eyed. He didn't believe her. She just didn't want to go out with him. But she didn't have to make up this excuse to say no!
"You could have said no to going out with me. You don't have to lie. Lying is bad you know." He said. She looked at him. Nope, no one had faith in Gaara to get married.
"Well, unfortunately I am getting married to your brother. Against my will may I add. Go ask him if you don't believe me."
Kankuro thought for a moment, and then went off to find Gaara. He wanted to know if this was true or not. Maybe she was lying. Oh she was going to get it if she was. But if not. He almost laughed at the thought of Gaara getting married.
After searching the house, the red head was no where to be found. But there was one place he didn't look. Gaara's room. He knew very well, that no one was allowed in there, and shuttered at the thought of what Gaara would do if h went in without permission.
Kankuro knocked on the door. "Gaara? You in there? It's Kankuro."
No answer came. Should he open the door just a crack. Gaara could be in there, or not. Maybe he could take a quick peek. And if Gaara was in there he would close the door really quick. Or he could fake amnesia and ask countless questions. No Gaara would never believe him.
Taking a deep breath, Kankuro opened the door a bit and looked in. Looking around he didn't see anything. Where could he be? Suddenly, Kankuro felt a grimy substance brush across his face. It wrapped around his arm holding the doorknob. Kankuro whipped around to find Gaara standing behind him.
"Oh…Gaara…uh…I was…just ah….I was looking for you." Kankuro stuttered out. Gaara glared at his older brother, and remained silent. An awkward silence filled around them, until Gaara broke it.
"What were you doing?" he asked coolly.
"I was just looking for you like I said."
Gaara's sand made its way around Kankuro's arm and down his sides, spreading around his torso.
"I…I didn't go in." Kankuro defended himself.
The sand made its way down his leg.
"I promise I didn't. Gaara let me go!" he pleaded. He knew Gaara had no mercy. He would have hoped since his brother had been lightening up over the years, but maybe that didn't mean anything. He could probably still kill without another thought.
The sand was now covering his whole lower body and most of his torso, and continued to make its way around. Kankuro felt pressure being applied as the sand started squeezing harder.
"Gaara?" A small female voice rang out behind him. Kankuro looked to see Sakura walking up the steps. She gasped as she saw what was going on.
"Gaara put him down!" she demanded. Gaara didn't even look at her, and didn't release his sand.
"Gaara! Please just put him down! Kankuro what did you do?" she asked at the same time.
Kankuro just looked at her pleadingly.
Sakura ran next to Gaara and yanked on his arm. He didn't budge. Well that didn't do anything.
"Come one Gaara!"
He didn't even move. He just kept glaring at Kankuro.
"What did he do?"
She still didn't get an answer. Sakura grew frustrated. He wouldn't even tell her why he was doing this. But she knew what to do to get his attention.
"Panda-chan stop it!" she yelled loudly. Kankuro was released from the sand, and Sakura was shoved up into the wall.
She was now looking into angry green eyes. She gulped and looked right back at him, fear burning in her eyes.
Gaara's voice was cold and threatening. "I told you, not to call me that."
Gaara's arms were on either side of her body. She could just slip underneath them, but then what? Gaara would stop her easily. And where would she go?
"Gomen, Gaara-san." She said quietly. His glare burned through her. She could see his anger and frustration burning in his eyes. The flames burnt through her.
He removed his arms and made his way to the stairs. "Don't do it again. That goes to both of you."
Sakura took a deep breath and moved away from the wall. Kankuro walked up behind her. She gasped as she turned and found him standing there smiling.
"Welcome to the family!" he said semi-cheerfully and rubbed the back of his head. Sakura sweat-dropped and walked pass him to her room. This family was really weird.
So. Did you like it? Give me suggestions! It would be nice. Tell me if I did something wrong. Or if I should improve something. Or just review me! That would be nice too. The more reviews I get, the fast I update!
