Chapter 3:

Naruto POV

I never knew my parents, and to this day I have no clue who they even are, but I never can get rid of the feeling that my mother died while cradling me in my arms. I try not to let it bother me; I ignore the glares and accusations I sometimes receive from everyone who I come in contact with. I'm used to it.

Something in the green of his eye tells me he knows the same feelings. That maybe the only difference between him, and me is a simple difference in experiences. I found people, and Gaara pushes them all away.

I don't know if he stayed, or if he left and I don't want to know. I don't want to be disappointed. I told myself it didn't matter anymore anyway; I was in the kitchen with all my friends.

Shikamaru was sitting on the counter next to the fridge and the door where I came in at, Choji was going through the fridge of course. Kiba and Lee were in a heated discussion over sports, while Sasuke and Neji were having a staring contest. All was normal.

"So, how did it go with the closet case?" asked Shikamaru, nonchalantly opening a soda that Choji tossed to him.

"He's not so bad." I shrugged, trying not to sound doubtful.

Shikamru shrugged back "Whatever, the guy's nuts. If we were in a scary movie, trapped in a hospital I would bet anything that he would be the guy trying to kill everybody. And I'd probably be stuck with you, the brave idiot who has to go check out everything, and then BOOM. I'm stuck in a hospital room with a psycho!"

"Where would I be?" asked Choji, pausing his search for food.

"In another hospital room, because you ate too much barbeque." Shikamru smirked, "Why else would I be there?"

"Who says it has to be a hospital? Why not somewhere else?" asked Sasuke still in a staring contest with Neji.

"Just for that, I'm putting you in a hospital bed to. You can be unconscious are something." Shikamaru retorted, taking another drink of his soda.

"What about me? Can I be there?" Lee asked, jumping excitedly.

"Sure, you can be the guy in the hospital bed in the room we're stuck in." Shikamaru replied, throwing the can into the garbage from where he was.

"That doesn't sound very youthful." Grumbled Lee.

Shikamru shrugged, again, "Yeah well shit happens when you're a little to "youthful", but don't worry that would probably never happen."

"Yeah." Said Choji, who finally found something to munch on.

Kiba walked up and looked into Shikamaru's eyes, "Have you been drinking?"

"Just a little." Smirked Shikamaru, "How could you tell?"

"You always get imaginative." Neji replied, I decided to poke Sasuke out of nowhere to make him lose. He was chasing me around the kitchen when Ino walked in.

"Time to go!" she smiled. Ino, who apparently decided to go all out, had called a limo to haul us around. I jumped in first, excited to be riding in one, when I came face to face with Gaara.

I smiled, but I didn't get say anything because the others shoved me in. On top of Gaara, I got up and sat down on the other side of him yelling "Oi! What's your problem?"

Sakura, who pushed me in, glared daggers pulling at my hair. "Just who do you think your talking to!"

"No one Sakura!" I replied, man she can punish people. But she was so pretty!

Temari climbed in, Shikamaru and Choji behind her, and sat down on the other side of Gaara. She didn't notice him until she looked up, "Oh, your still here?" she smirked. Temari was wearing a pretty purple outfit of Ino's, she looked pretty herself.

Gaara nodded at her, glancing in my direction then looking away when I looked back. I'm glad he came.

By the way, incase you were wondering what happened with the babies; well, Ino took care of that. Her family doesn't own a technology company for nothing, she has some skills, and she ridged our kids.

I just hope Kakashi doesn't find out.

"We're eating at Yakiniku Q's!" she exclaimed, and we began to pull out when suddenly Kiba yelled.

"Wait! We left Shino! He was using the bathroom!" Kiba climbed out since he was closest to the door, yelling, "He's never going to forget this!"

When he came back, Shino was sulking behind him. As they got into the car, Shino asked, "How come you guys always forget me? Half the time you don't even remember who I am…"

He continued to grumble until Kiba suddenly kicked Lee, "Lee, why did you forget Shino? I told you to go get him!"

"You did?" Lee asked, beside him Neji smirked and Sasuke snickered.

"Yeah Lee, how could you? That wasn't very youthful?" Shikamaru added, smirking to.

"I left him? It's my fault?" said Lee, looking frantic, "I'm sorry Shino."

"And I'm your partner. " grumbled Shino, Tenten glared around at all of us.

"You guys are all jerks." She said, smacking Neji as he whispered something under his breath.

And with that we left to celebrate Temari's birthday.

Gaara's POV:

Why am I stuck in this limo again? Oh, right because an idiot decided to have a genius moment right when I was about to leave.

We were eating in a restaurant I've never been to, a barbeque place. It seemed like everyone in the group are regulars here, and were taken strait into a private large room without any questions or anything like that.

Just smiles and greetings.

I sat next to my sister, and Naruto sat on the other side of me. Some kid with huge eyebrows sat next to me, and a kid with upside down triangle tattoos sat down on the other side of him whispering, "Hey Lee, why don't you take some of your eyebrows and give them to Gaara? Charity is always a good thing."

Everyone who heard, excluding me, snickered a little.

"Hey dobe?" said Sasuke suddenly, the only one besides Naruto whose name I know. "Don't be an idiot."

Naruto glared at him, but Sasuke ignored it. "Shut up."

Everyone seemed to continue on in their own little conversations, fighting over the cooked food or doing other things that seemed normal to them, and eventually I learned everyone's name the more I eavesdropped.

Shikamaru was the one paired with Temari, the one with the ponytail whose friends with the fat one whose name is Choji.

Neji, a guy with long hair who looked like the quiet girl sitting next to triangle kid, seemed…. quiet, a little like me, so I wondered what he was doing with this group of loudmouths in the first place?

Maybe Naruto had something to do with that to.

The pink haired girl, who always argues with the blonde bimbo Ino, is named Sakura and she is in "love" with Sasuke.

That's about all I've got for now, excluding Lee and Kiba.

"Hey, bushy brows! Tenten's trying to talk to you!" called Naruto, waving down Lee.

The girl named Tenten smiled at Naruto in thanks, she was sitting next to him and I only just noticed her, but Naruto is distracting, "Lee, when we go to the club I want you to behave. No fighting and especially no drinking."

"Can I dance?" asked Lee, looking at her with pleading eyes.

"Yes, but someone has to supervise you!" Tenten smiled back, "I don't want to have to embarrass you in the rumor column on Monday."

"Ill watch him, but I'm not wearing that jumpsuit." Neji said, crossing his arms "All of those that have ever been made need to be burned."

"I second that!" Replied Kiba, giving Neji a high five.

"Hey, I like them and I would wear them only Kakashi and Iruka wont let me." Naruto said, Lee beamed at him happy to know his wardrobe wasn't as horrible as he thought.

But it was.

"Naruto I really don't know what to think about you sometimes." Said Sasuke, shaking his head, "Remember what happened when you got caught wearing one of those at home, Kakashi grounded you for a week."

Naruto grumbled, apparently remembering as he pouted. It was kind of adorable…. stupid that he would pout at something like that or at all.

It's weird being around so many people in such a friendly environment. I'm not used to it, but its like Naruto said.

I would be bull shitting myself if I didn't try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time skip~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You can just crash here." Said Ino, giggling as she up the stairs, "I have plenty of rooms."

She was replying to Kiba, who was way beyond drunk and asked to stay the night.

"Forget the guest rooms, or the stairs, I'll be on that couch over there." Said Shikamaru, making his way into the front living room and curling on a couch.

Lee, Neji, Shino, Tenten, Temari, Hinata and I were the only ones not drunk. While the others were taking care of the drunken idiots, I went to get my stuff from the dinning room.

But there was a tug at my wrist; I turned around ready to attack when I came face to face with a very serious Naruto. "I'm glad you stayed, Gaara."

We remained frozen like that for a little while, his eyes seemed lighter almost clear, before he released my wrist and started making his way to the stairs.

I wonder if he'll be all right?

Whatever, its not my problem. I opened the door and called Kankaru.

It wasn't Temari's birthday anymore.

Naruto POV

When I woke up I was laying on Ino's parents bathroom floor. Good thing they were on vacation.

I went downstairs everyone was in the kitchen drinking Ino's specialty hangover tea.

"My mother is going to kill me when I get home." Grumbled Shikamaru who was sitting on the same counter as yesterday, it was his official spot in the kitchen, "but those are really good couches."

"You think your mothers going to kill you?" said Kiba, rubbing his head "Have you meet my mother?"

"Who cares, we're all dead." Said Sasuke, "So dead."

I shuddered thinking about Iruka.

"Well, what do you guys want to do now?" said Shikamaru, "Why not prolong our deaths a little?"

"Nothing involving noise." Said Kiba, lying on the floor randomly.

"How about we just laze around here?" I offered, taking a cup from Ino.

"I can do that." Agreed Shikamaru, getting off the counter and walking out the door "You guys know where to find me."

I wonder what Gaara's doing, and why he stayed. Or better yet what we are going to do about our project. Ino would have to fix all of our babies by the due date. In that second I realized that having the baby off meant one thing, less time with Gaara.

My stomach squeezed together, and I shuddered at the feeling. "Ino I have a favor to ask you."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Monday~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was grounded. Heck we were all grounded, excluding Ino, Shino, Lee and Hinata. I don't know why Neji stayed; he wasn't even drunk, unless he just wanted to be out of the house or something.

Either way it was Monday, the worst day of the week, and to top it off I had been kept up all night by my electronically functional child. It's what I had to do to talk to Gaara though.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen him all day because we don't have a single class together except for health at he end of the day. Which means I end up taking care of the baby by myself for another couple of hours, because I cant find him anywhere.

When I finally made it to Health Kakashi was beaming at me over his book. Asshole.

I ignored him though, because Gaara was already in the classroom "Hey, can you take over? I'm beat."

Gaara looked over at me questioningly, then noticing a peeping Kakashi decided to take the baby. In some ways the asshole can be useful.

"I have karate after school, so your going to have to take him back the next day." Gaara said, I never noticed how deep his voice was before now. It was smooth to, like you could melt away in it.

Wait a second.

"I'm starting practice, I have it on Wednesdays and Thursdays, so please don't forget." I yawned laying my head on my desk, "I can't let Sasuke beat me."

And then it was lights out.
