Oh Darling

Chapter Three:

"Oh," I groaned, "so you've come back to play me so you won't screw up your own plans in the future?"

"Someone give the lady a prize," the one with black hair smirked.

I tried really hard not to burst out laughing because obviously they didn't realize what I said about them. Then again, I probably don't want them to realize what I said. I'm just digging my own grave here, but then again this is a lot more dangerous than all those other times I dug my own grave.

"You dumb ass," their leader replied to the one who just admitted that they were pretty much stupid.

I smiled innocently trying to prove that I didn't say anything. Even though my sarcastic comment had bought me some time; it wasn't going to save me. I was trying to calm myself down and think of a way out of this mess.

The leader had taken hold of my wrist roughly, "Well now, we best be on our way, princess."

I looked to my side and saw that there were at least some ninjas around that could help me, "You're not my brother!"

I was hoping that comment was yelled loud enough and was smart enough to get at least one person to come and help me. I groaned. Well I attracted some attention but everyone was just watching. These people honestly call themselves ninjas? They suck at it. I looked around trying to see if Gaara was here yet.

I let out a sigh and looked at the ground in defeat. For some reason I just did not feel like fighting them myself. I knew I had some skill to do so, but I just didn't have the willpower. So I decided to give in, "Alright, fine. What do you want now?"

"I think that's a bit obvious, don't you think so too?" The leader said looking back at his henchmen.

"Great, well if you want I can give you some candy," I smiled hoping that my optimistic attitude wasn't too stupid.

The large hand of the man that was standing in front of me reached out towards my neck. Well this isn't the way I always imagined how I would die. Then again it's now or never right? Though that isn't really the proper way to look at death, but in this situation it's a nice way to see things.

My eyes closed hard. Shutting out any light that tried to creep in. I didn't want it to end like this but in all honesty, out my years I spent here; it was fun. When I didn't feel the ice touch of my predators around my neck I decided just to peak open and see what was going on without my knowledge.

Sand had found its way around the two back up and soon they disappeared into the sand in an explosion. I looked at the surrounding people who did nothing to help. Well they were all scared now and not curious to the event that was taking place. Served them right; not helping out a comrade of their village just because they thought watching out be more intelligent.

"Who's there?" the one left standing alone breathed out in a raspy afraid voice, "she isn't part of your world! Why protect her?"

I saw sand slowly creeping up the man's leg. It was a wonder why he didn't notice anything. I breathed out slowly and nervously hoping he didn't notice. Or well it'll be a pain to fight him. Then again if he didn't notice that would be too easy; well I also never saw Gaara fight before. Since he was the Kazekage I just assumed he wouldn't let a middle ranking man from my planet beat him.

I closed my eyes not wanting to watch anymore but the thoughts kept flashing through my head. I felt a few pieces of sand hitting my face. I flinched at the cold feeling on my skin. I slowly opened my eyes to see the familiar red hair rustling through the wind. I stared into his aqua blue orbs. I can say at least that I'm happy I can't see my own face since I probably look like a dumbfounded idiot.

I smiled slowly at him, "You know, I could have handled them myself."

"By the way you were standing there looking afraid," I felt the soft penetrating gaze on me, "I couldn't help but step in and protect you."

I breathed out in relief that he did step in because I was just lying to me by saying that. I stared back into the eyes that were on me, "Thank you, though," a soft smile graced my lips.

"There was something I wanted to ask you today," I could tell easily that he was getting nervous. I tilted my head in confusion.

The soft smile was still evident on my face, "You know, if you ask me for my heart, there's no way that I'll say no."

I continued to smile at him as his eyes widened with shock. Not the scary kind of shock, the surprised and happy shock, "Then will you have my heart as well?"

I shock my head, "There's no way that will do," I saw a sad expression cross his face but I continued before he could do anything else, "I already gave you mine, so what gave you the doubt I wouldn't accept yours?"

I felt warm and yet cool hands cup my face. I blinked at the shinobi in front of me wondering what he was planning to do. He pressed his mouth against mine. I felt the tenderness of the kiss seep in. I wrapped my arms around his neck unknowingly. We both smiled into the kiss.

Once we parted for air a kind gentle smiled crossed his lips, "So where did you want to go first?" I giggled at him saying anywhere with you is fine as we continued on with our date.
