~ Let me go - 3 doors down

Chapter 4

Gaara's POV.

It wont stop. It's to loud. I cant see. It's all blurry.

I am silent now. Silently screaming. No one could hear me now. No one could help me.

There is no one to blame. Not even Shukaku, I was too weak.

Sitting in the corner of my room, the full moon breaking through the window, I pulled my knees into my stomach hiding my face behind them.

Waiting for the pain to surpass.


Morning had broke and the sunlight burned my eyes. My head was pounding like drums as I was barely apple to stand straight without using the wall as support. I had just finished cleaning up the mess (and myself) before forcing myself downstairs hoping that some food would strengthen me up. Once I only used to eat two meals a day but gradually I began to eat more like a normal person would, and of course with the help with the help of my siblings, no matter how hard I attempted to tell them I'm fine, they always constantly over worried about my health. I guess that was what family were for.

It was a routine to see Temari cooking in the morning and Kankuro yawning every few minute. I had become apart of the routine now. I sat down on the kitchen chair, I guess my attempt to hide my weakness failed because the expressions on their faces showed sheer worry.

'Don't look at me like that, I'm fine.' I simply said as controlled as possible.

Kankuro, who was cleaned of make-up, sighed. 'Gaara, you make it pretty obvious that you're in a bad state' As emotionless I tried to be, my siblings were always able to notice even the slight changed in my emotions, even If I couldn't tell myself

Temari stopped cooking and was the second to talk. ' We've here if you ever need to talk Gaara. You're not alone anymore.' Temari tone was serious yet soft.

'I know that.' I never realised how hard it was to speak to my own siblings about my problems but I wish not to be a burden to them, especially these problems.

'Does it have something to do with that girl,huh?' Kankuro spoke which to my surprise sounded serious but the thing was that I had never even mentioned Sayuri to him or even hinted, my guess what that the white rose was still present in his mind. I could see Temari raise an eyebrow but said nothing on the mater which I was glad of. ' I aint gonna let that go, little brother' This time his tone of voice was a little lighter this time.

'Head's up!' Temari said cheerfully as she placed tree bowls on the table of miso soup and green tea for me since it was my favourite. Temari and Kankuro chatted between each other which I wasn't too bothered about joining in because my head still felt dizzy. They noticed.

After a few minutes of only eating a few mouthfuls, I stood up and placed my bowl in the sink and left the kitchen.

' I'm worried, sis.' Kankuro said

' Me too. I don't want to lose him.' Temari said.


Later on

I had tree meetings which lasted two hours until and some paper till I had some free time to relax. The first meeting was with the counsel without my siblings for a specific reason. They asked me how I doing, apparently some of the counsel had noticed my strange behaviour such as being disconnected and less social than normal. I wish they'd just leave me alone and stop pestering me.

I leaned back in my chair after a few hour of doing some paperwork. I closed my eyes feeling the sunset fall on my pale skin. It was so peaceful and calm, finally I was able to relax. Simple moments like these was what I treasured the most. But sadly the moment didn't last long. My head pounded and my body felt too weak to move. I stayed still, not wanting to move hoping this feeling would pass again. The pain increased rapidly. I moved slight forward but my body had over plans by falling to the floor. Closing my eyes, I felt myself becoming lighter and slowly disappear. The last thing I heard were the panicking voices of my siblings. My eyes refused to open.


The next day

My eyes flashed open wide to open up to my new current surroundings. The Suna Hospital, the one place I never wanted to be. I remembered what had happen last night but for now my head felt fine. Sitting up against the bed I silently gasped, realising I was in a hospital gown were my arms were completely exposed, I quickly placed my arms under the covers. The nurses must of seen what I had been doing. I hoped and prayed that my siblings were not informed. Scanning around the hospital I realised I was not alone, a particular braided blonde haired girl was on the opposite bed next to me. Sayuri. She was still unconscious (or sleeping).

'Miss Shi- Sayuri?' I called out, my voice sounded raspy. All I got was a slight movement, nothing more. I wondered what had happen to her?

'Gaara!' My siblings rushed through the door with panic spread across their faces.

Kankuro spoke first; 'For the love of Suna! You nearly gave us a heart attack' He's breathing was out of place as he tried to calm himself down.

'The doctor said you passed out from lack of food..' Temari voice was serious and almost angry towards me. This wasn't the first time that this has happen, in fact, when I first became Kazekage I often forgot to eat due to being busy but after a while of getting used to the position of Kazekage I began to eat normally again. I haven't passed out from lack of food in years and they both knew that.

Temari sat herself on the end of my bed. 'Look Gaara.. something's up and we need to know.' She raised an eyebrow holding her arms around her chest in my direction. Right this moment, I didn't feel like telling them the truth quit yet. Instead, I looked over towards Sayuri, my siblings also.

'So that's the lucky girl,huh?' Kankuro commented with a grin on his face.

' I barely know her,Kankuro' I let my eyes close involuntary hoping they would leave me alone for a little longer but I doubt it from Temari's facial expression.

Kankuro shrugged. 'Let him rest for a while,sis' Kankuro ruffled my hair before leaving.

Temari stood up reading to leave and turned around heading to the door, before she left she turned her to the side.

'When you're feeling better... I want you to tell me why your arms are coved in scars' With those final words, she left. My secret was revealed.


Yay, Chapter 4! With more mystery xD I'll write chapter 5 when I reach 5 reviews
