A/N: Great. Just great.
Friend?
Suzy came to visit Gaara for a few days now. Gaara became quite found of her being around. She only had two demands. One, he didn't glare at her all the time. And two, he didn't kill in front of her. Gaara met them easily. Soon after he found the need to kill less and less. The time they spent together was no longer limited. They couldn't go in public because everyone got scared when they saw Gaara and Suzy would not allow Gaara to nock down a restaurant door just so they could eat. So little was known of there relationship. Only Kazekage knew of it.
Today they decided to meet at Suzy house. Gaara didn't really have a house or home because he didn't sleep so he didn't need to go to a home. He's sometimes eat with his siblings and occasionally his father but that's it. Gaara had to do that any way or he would get to eat.
Gaara pounded on a apartment door labeled 306. It was a four story building and they were on the third. A thought hit Gaara hard, 'Isn't this one of the building were they give one room apartments to orphans old enough to live on the own?' After a few seconds of knocking a yell came from inside, "I'M COMEING DAMN IT!!!" Gaara smiled. Suzy cursed a lot. Not because she was mad, usually she was joking around, but she did it cause she could.
The door swung open, "Well come in Gaara. Ya didn't come all this way to stand outside."
Gaara walked in. He was now in a living room with a very small TV on a table a radio next to that. There was a two person yellow couch and yellow chair facing them, separated by a table. On the table, even though they were in the dearest, were some lilies in a white and blue vase.
"Welcome to my sucky one room apartment . You'll she the Kitchen slash dining room over there," she pointed to a door way by the couch, "And over there's the bathroom," she pointed at a door net to the radio, "And down the hall way is my bedroom and a one out of two closets," she pointed at the hall next to the TV, "Selia sort of has a bed room down there meaning a scratching post and a huge pillow so-"
"Selia?" Gaara asked.
"Oh… just my cat. HEY SELIA!!! GET THE HELL OUT HERE!!!!" she yelled. They heard a meow in reply and soon where were joined by a cat with tan-ish fur and yellow eyes. She brushed against Gaara's leg and purred. Suzy threw herself on the couch, "Damn I'm so poor. I get a allowance that some of my relatives send my and that's it. I was murder getting all this furniture," she said.
"Aren't you a ninja?" he asked.
"Yah and that's it. I don't have a team or squad or any missions anymore since Kazekage made me watch you," she told him.
"Sorry."
"HOLY FUCK!!! Did you just apologies? Amazing," she said, "But you don't need to worry about it. I could of said no if I wanted too," she paused and looked at Gaara for a bit with a sad look in her eyes, "Are we friends now?"
Gaara thought back. He never thought of her as a friend just someone his father wanted him to spend time with and someone he didn't he to kill, "No. I don't need friendship. Love makes fools weak."
"Then why did you come here in the first place?" she asked. From her voice Gaara could tell his words didn't hurt her. For some reason, that hurt him instead.
Gaara tried to do his best to change the subject, "Where are your parents?"
Suzy's look changed. It seemed as if she was going to cry, "Dead."
Gaara stared at her, "How?"
"Killed."
"By who?"
"NO!!!" she avoided his eyes, "It doesn't matter. I can't hold a grudge anyway. So it doesn't matter."
Gaara looked at her then had a scary thought, 'What if? No.' He walked over and grabbed Suzy by the shoulders to make her look at him, "Who?"
She bowed her head in defeat, "Why should you care?" she sobbed a little. Gaara heard Selia hiss.
"Suzy…"
"It was," she paused, "You."
