Ryley sat up in the middle of the night, yawning she got up and made her way down the stairs to grab a snack.
As she entered the kitchen she began to search around.
Finally sighing she filled the kettle with water and put it on the stove, glancing around she began to rummage through the cupboards.
Frowning Ryley looked up at the higher cupboards she couldn't reach, pulling up a stool, she climbed up onto the counter and reached into the cupboard and successfully pulling out the spoils hot chocolate.
Making to step down Ryley missed the tool her foot slipped and she fell backwards, closing her eyes she waited for the impact but it didn't happen, instead she landed in something squishy.
Opening her eyes in confusion, she looked down to find she was sitting in sand, it floated around her too.
Furrowing her brows in confusion, she decided.
"I am insane." Taking a glance around she realized the sand was moving into the shadows, "Yup insane, sand is moving and there is no wind and my mind is once again trying to make me stop eating chocolate. Laura told me to stop eating chocolate or my brains would melt and look where it got me."
Frowning slightly she sat up and began to move to the kettle muttering about how chocolate should be her friend and not melt her brain.
Ryley tended to do this when she thought she was alone, she let herself slip and be goofy and question everything so she didn't feel like she was alone, spending most of her time with Laura meant she did it very, very little.
Grabbing a cup from the counter she poured hot chocolate mix and hot water in, then moved over to the kitchen table sitting down at the table and began to drink.
"Are you blind?" Green eyes lazily drifted up from her cup to the red head who had stepped into the moonlight that Ryley had been working in.
"No." She replied plainly.
"Then you are not a shinobi." Looking confused Ryley looked at him.
"What's a shinobi?" the boy seemed shock.
He did not reply but stared at Ryley who found it rather awkward.
"Listen I apparently hit my head when I fell, I think and I lost all memory of everyone but my sister. She is the only thing in my head, I learned of people who can heal called medic Nin and people who fight called ninja like Tenten and what's their face." Ryley sighed as the red head continued to stare at her, her hair was slightly lighter though not blood red but kinda fall leafy red.
"Are you afraid?" Ryley looked at the red head.
"For my sister, I am afraid for." Ryley whispered staring into her cup.
"Are you afraid of me?" Ryley looked at him confused.
"You sure do ask a lot of questions and no I am not." She said taking a sip of her hot chocolate.
"What if I hurt your sister? Would you be afraid?" he asked.
"Persistent much? Yah I would be afraid for her but don't expect me to stand and watch if you do, I will do everything in my power to stop you, I think- I think I did that before, taking the pain away so she wouldn't have to feel it or something like that, the images are only vainly there." Ryley sighed, staring into her cocoa drink.
Suddenly sand clouded her vision and she was in the air completely wrapped in sand, the boys hand was stuck out.
Ryley stared back at him evenly; she opened her mouth and let the song pour out:
Sparkling
angel I believed
You were my savior in my time of need.
Blinded
by faith I couldn't hear
All the whispers, the warnings so
clear.
I see the angels;
I'll lead them to your door.
There's
no escape now,
No mercy no more.
No remorse 'cause I still
remember
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my
heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams;
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke the promise and made
me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Sparkling angel, I
couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen
angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I
see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape
now
No mercy no more
No remorse 'cause I still remember
The
smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart,
Deceived
me right from the start.
You showed me dreams;
I wished they'd
turn into real.
You broke the promise and made me realize.
It
was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have
reached the end.
This world may have failed you;
It
doesn't give you a reason why.
You could have chosen a different
path in life.
The smile when you tore me apart.
You
took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me
dreams;
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke the promise
and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been
forever.
Now we have reached the end.
Suddenly the sand dispersed and Ryley landed with a thud on her butt.
Standing up and rubbing her bum she looked and saw Gaara his head turned down, hiding his eyes.
"Oh sorry if I had known the song was going to hurt you I wouldn't have sung it." Ryley said apologetically as Gaara's hand gripped his heart.
"Where did that song come from?" Gaara growled his voice husky as his other hand went up to his head.
"It came from where everything else I sing comes from, why?" Ryley asked suddenly the sand shot at her pinning her to the wall.
Her eyes widened slightly as the boy walked over and glared her right in the eye.
"Your head." He growled his eyes wide, with something Ryley remember vaguely in her mind.
"No, where does feeling come from? Everything I sing, both I and my sister sing come from our hearts. What's the point in singing it other wise?" Ryley said plainly.
"Ryley… What kind of name is that?" Ryley raised an eyebrow.
"I don't know, like I said no memory and how did you know my name anyways?" Ryley asked surprised.
She got no response; suddenly it dawned on her, "You were spying?"
No response.
Frowning Ryley decided to ask something different, "So what's you name then?" not very different but still different.
"Gaara." He replied.
"Well Gaara would you mind letting me down my hot chocolate is getting cold." Ryley asked smiling at him; slowly the sand retreated to a big jar attached to his back.
"It's already cold." Frowning Ryley made her way over to the kettle and began to heat the water again.
"Hey, um Gaara would you like some?" a grunt came from across the room, Ryley took it as a yes and if he didn't want it she could always have it.
Putting more cocoa in her cup and in Gaara's she waited for the kettle to boil.
"I am a monster you should run away screaming." Gaara's voice was slightly pained and expecting.
"Kay Gaara, prove it." Ryley said simply, she felt the air shift.
Pouring water into the cups she turned around to find yellow eyes with black diamond shape dots in the middle.
Ryley simply walked past him and put the cups on the table then offered Gaara one.
She felt something against her back, turning with Gaara's cup in her hand she let out a yelp of pain as Gaara rammed her into the table, the tables edge was sharp and cut into her back.
Fighting back tears that tried to escape her eyes she placed the cup on the table and turned to look at Gaara.
Her green eyes darkened as they met yellow, amber speckles appeared in her dark green eyes.
"That hurt." She hissed her voice like venom. "If you're going to beat me up, do it out side so my sister doesn't know."
The yellow eyes widened slightly, "Why do you care so much?!" he growled fiercely.
"What else have I got?! She is the only thing I can remember! All I will probably ever have is her! I don't want to hurt or to loose her!" Ryley growled tears streaming down her pale face.
Ryley's eyes were becoming more and more engulfed with the amber fire of her fighting spirit.
The sand drummed on the inside of his giant jar, "Why does it matter, she'll just betray you in the end."
"No, she won't." Her voice had calmed down considerably and the amber in her eyes receded.
"How do you know?!" Gaara was calming down slightly but his eyes were still yellow.
"Because she needs me as much as I need her." Ryley whispered, Gaara released his grip and stepped back.
Ryley's head fell forward hiding her eyes in her bangs, she turned and sat down in a chair, picking up her hot chocolate she sipped at it quietly, Gaara was now leaning against the counter.
Picking up Gaara's hot chocolate she held it out to him, not even looking at him.
She felt it leave her hand, letting her hand drop t her side she continued to stare down.
"What was it in the song that pissed you off?" Ryley asked.
She felt his eyes on her but she didn't move.
"Yashamaru," Gaara whispered.
Ryley looked at him and a sad smile graced her features.
"Thought he loved you? Made you think he was your friend? Faked caring? I know that feeling." Ryley sighed and stared at the bottom of her cup.
"How?" Ryley turned and looked at Gaara he was looking out the window.
"It's a vague memory like all of them but its strong because Laura's in it, there are people and I feel trust until they start throwing things at Laura and me but they weren't satisfied. So they beat me to a bloody pulp then they just leave." Ryley said sighing; putting down her cup she made a move to get up but was stopped by the sand.
"You didn't fight back." Gaara growled but his voice was softer.
"Of course I didn't! I knew I didn't stand a chance and that- that if I did fight back all I could throw at them were words." Ryley whispered, her eyes far away as her eyes turned a kind of wilted green color.
She could feel Gaara's stare at the back of her head, once again trying to sit up to avail she grabbed her cup and put it in the sink.
When she turned around Gaara was right in front of her again, he gripped her shoulders and was looking at her dead in the eye.
Reaching up she poked him in the forehead, his stared showed shock, his eyes showed confusion.
He stepped back and disappeared in a whirl of sand, Ryley stood there kind of shocked.
"What the… Ugh! I am never going to get this stuff… AND NOW I have a headache! Stupid brain."
Walking up the stairs she was about to open the door to Temari's room when sand shot up in front of her and she felt two strong hands on her shoulders, then with wide eyes she felt Gaara right in front of her face, the next thing she knew was something warm on her lips, it was rough and gentle but one emotion rang from the kiss confusion.
Then he was gone, leaving a very confused Ryley in front of the door.
Opening it she entered, closing it behind her she decided sleep was the best thing for now.
She didn't even realize the eye watching her as she drifted off.
