I grumbled as walked towards the freaking Kazekage's tower, that man sure does wake up early- 5 in the morning! And not telling me he work at that hour really annoys me. How am I supposed to do my mission? I know, his all high almighty, powerful Gaara, does tricks with his sand. But I was suppose to protect him...I sounds like a male version of a couple. Well, if he wanted to do this, then let me have a chance that I 'tried' to protect him, then he can die later for all I care.

Woke up about 5.50 am-hungry. I saw Temari, and told me that the arrogant brat was already off. So I set off, without breakfast!

I opened the door of the Kazegage's office, he was there alright. He should be prepared for what's coming next.

"What the hell?!" I yelled. "You were gone at 5am, you didn't tell me! How am I supposed to do my mission huh? Look I know you don't like me tagging along, and personally I don't like your attitude either, but seriously!" I know I didn't made any sense; my mouth started blabbering without the full consent of my brain. I was blowing of steam, this guy really need to face the facts that people sent me to do a certain mission, which hopefully won't get hard. And plus this is what you get when I don't have breakfast.

Gaara, who stopped at what he was doing, glared at me. He rose his eyebrow... skin, what happened to his eyebrows anyway?

"Please, just work with me here!" I pleaded. "Your making this harder than it seems." I pouted.

"Fine, you should know that I can't sleep, therefore I go to work at 5am, and got back home at 6pm. And I apologise that I made you worried." He smirked and carried off to do his work.

I huffed; stunned that he could make such comment. And yet stunned that the high almighty Gaara, apologise and smirked, a nearly smile, at the same time!

"It is true that you were worried though." My inner self giggled. Oh for the love of what's all holy, my inner side had to side with Gaara. I made my way to the chair that I was sitting before, day dreaming about home, and watching the sun rise. It was breath taking. I was disturbed by my growling stomach. As a reflex I clench my stomach, hopping he wouldn't have to hear that. He starred at me for a moment and went back to do his business. Seconds later, it growled again, this time it was louder than before. Gaara dropped his pen and rested back into his seat, starring at me and my expression.

He sighed, "Your stomach is annoying and disturbing me.' He commented, in the same boredom tone.

"Well, sorry if I didn't have breakfast, Gaara!" I snapped.

He smirked, again. Then sighed removing his, almost, smile. "Go get something to eat." He ordered.

"I can't do that," I replied, "and plus I don't know where to go."

He stood up and walked through the door. I hate having to follow him around, but I did, unfortunately.

"Where are we going?" I wondered.

"Get you some breakfast." He growled, annoyed by my presence.

"Oh, I didn't know you are nice, Gaara." I teased, giggling at that thought. Seriously, who thought Gaara was kind?

"Hn." He murmured. Why, Oh, Why? Why does he have to remind me of Sasuke all the time?!?

XXxxXXxxXXxx

We reached a coffee bar, and took the chairs that were outside the building. A waitress came asking for our order. She was gawking dreamily at Gaara, giving her full attention to him, and acts like I was mute and invisible. I was basically shouting my order at her, so she can actually write it down. I swear she might be deaf, before or after I ordered my food. She could be deaf before, since she didn't heard me the first time, or might be deaf after, since I practically have to yell in her ear! When she went off to fetch our order, Gaara was eyeing suspiciously at me.

"What?" I asked rudely, wondering what he might be thinking.

"Jealous much?" He smirked at his own ridiculous comment.

"WHAT!" I asked again, this time with a hint of anger and annoyance. Now I regret wondering what he was thinking! I didn't know how loud I was, until I noticed the evil eyes that people around us was giving. Whoopsie!

XXxxXXxxXX

After the nice breakfast, we went back to the tower. As we went on our way, I picked up 3 pebbles of the floor. Gaara went back to his work, and I went back to my jolly o' chair. There, I set the stones I picked up earlier, and place them in the armrest. I focused my chakra to the tip of my fingers, and tried to move the pebble gently forward, without touching the surface of the pebble. At least I could do training, rather than being bored to death.

"What are you doing?" He eyed at the pebbles curiously. He squint his eyes, glaring at me. This made his jade eyes smaller, and the black thing around his eyes increased. And, what is that stuff anyway? Eyeliner?

"I'm focusing at my chakra to my fingers; this would help me practise my chakra control more." I explained to him, ignoring my thoughts.

He nodded, a sign that he understood.

"Gaara? Why did you agree being the Kazegage?" I wondered. I don't know if I was invading his personal life, but I was bored, I need someone to talk to. And also I was curious, and if I keep popping questions like this to him, curiosity will definitely will kill me!

"Why do you want to know?" He mumbled, still signing a paper.

"I'm curious." I replied truthfully, well half truthfully. The other, I decided to leave out.

"I agreed because, I want to show the village that I am better than my father. I want to gain their trust, and show them that I have changed." He seemed not to care of his remark, just still signing papers. But in his eyes I can see the emotion behind those words. I can't believe that I feel sorry for Gaara, that I sympathise him. And also I didn't expect him to be honest to me, I expect him to say 'You're annoying me.' Or something like that, which would divert the conversation to another.

"Gaara you have changed." I muttered, going back to my mini training.

XXxxXXxxXXxxXXxx

"Guys! Dinner!" I yelled, placing the plates down the table. Seconds later, Temari and Kankuro raced down the stairs, shouting at each other, pushing and shoving. It sounds like wild animal stampede!

They both settled down, munching away with the food. I wondered where Gaara was and how he is taking long.

"Guys? You know where Gaara is?" I asked.

"Nope." Kankuro said, food showering out from his mouth.

Temari swallowed, 'No, but I guess he is in his room. I wouldn't go there if I were you.'

But I did. I quietly opened the door, hoping that he wouldn't notice me, instead of doing that, I trip over something; it was too dark to see anything. I feel over something hard, yet soft and warm. No point looking for Gaara. There he was. Right... in... Front... of me! I tripped over to him! Out of all people HIM! For how many years I have been a ninja, and creeping out to someone unnoticed. For all those years, all those years! Pointless!

"G-Garaa..." His head was leaning in towards me...

Sorry for the romantic cliffy there.
