A/n: First I would like to warn that there may be slight spoilers from Eclipse in the following chapter. I'm not going to get into it completely, but they will most likely be making fun of certain parts. Thanks again for all the faves, story alerts and reviews! I would also like to apologize for using Eclipse once more. I'm not really a huge Twilight fan, but it's the only movie I've seen recently and I didn't want to choose some random movie.


Gaara glanced over at Hinata as the two exited the theater to see tears in her eyes and a look of disbelief on her face. "What's wrong?" He said it so quiet she almost didn't hear it. When her eyes met his, she let out a laugh.

"It was just so… Bad. I mean come on, what kind of romance is that? And who would fall for him? Rob Pattinson is weird," She shook her head. "And that actress is so emotionless… Who in their right mind would hire her?" Hinata let out a laugh and held her ribs. Gaara nodded and she bit her lip to keep from laughing at his serious expression.

"I would have chosen Jacob myself," He told her with a joking look in his eyes. Hinata shook her head and smacked his arm lightly. "Yeah, that was definitely a waste of money. I'm sorry," He apologized with a laugh. Hinata shook her head and gave him a soft smile.

"I should be apologizing. Maybe we should have seen that new Ashton Kutcher movie instead. I didn't even see it there… It would have been a better waste of money. 'Killers' seemed kind of interesting," She shrugged and gave him an apologetic smile. "I am so sorry for wasting two to three hours of your life. It was never ending… We should have just walked out," She added with a giggle.

Gaara nodded and shook his head. They paused by the door and glanced out the window to see if it had started to rain yet. She smiled as she watched the rain fall down and form puddles. "I love it when it rains," She admitted softly as Gaara looked over to see her smile. "It's so peaceful," Gaara nodded and glanced back as he heard a groan. Naruto, Sasuke and Kiba were walking ahead of three girls. He only recognized Sakura and Ino, and noticed another girl with them and shrugged it off.

The girls were babbling excitedly about the stupid movie and Naruto cringed at the death glares Kiba and Sasuke were shooting him. "How many times can I say I'm sorry?" He asked with a groan. Kiba clenched his teeth and punched Naruto in the arm.

"Not enough. I feel like I lost brain cells watching that movie. All the horrible acting, and the stupid scenes. Especially the scene where she's trying to take her clothes off. No guy says no to that! What the hell?" He rolled his eyes as Naruto sighed. Sasuke agreed, although he would never vocalize that thought.

"The fight scenes were kinda cool?" Naruto asked trying his best to find something that could be considered a good part of the movie. When he realized he could find none, he sighed and held his hands up. "I know… I know. I deserve to have the shit beat out of me," Sasuke smirked at the invitation as Kiba just punched Naruto in the arm again. Much harder than the first time. Naruto glared at Kiba and rubbed his arm.

"Hey… Isn't that Gaara and the Hyuuga girl?" Ino's cousin asked with a curious expression on her face. The five other peoples' heads snapped up and glanced over. "She's pretty," Ino's cousin, Akiko mentioned with a small smile on her face. Everyone stared at her for a moment until they heard Gaara speak.

"If you want we can wait it out here," He was looking straight at Hinata as he spoke. She smiled at his politeness and then shook her head. "Alright, would you like me to take you home… Or?" Hinata once again shook her head. "We could hang out at my house, but it's a mess since Kankuro doesn't know how to clean up after himself," Hinata shrugged. Anywhere but home sounded like a good idea. "Oh, and you can meet Temari, she came to check up on me," He chuckled softly. Hinata smiled and then looked at the door with a determined look.

"Well, it's now or never," Gaara nodded in agreement and the two opened the doors and headed to the parking lot. Hinata smiled when they stopped by his bike. He handed her his helmet and got on first. When she was done putting the helmet on, she got on and wrapped her arms around his torso. Within the next five minutes they were on the road and headed for his father's Konoha house.


"I… I can't believe that out of all the people he would make friends with… It would be a freak like Hinata," Sakura mumbled as Ino nodded. Naruto looked back at them with a frown as Kiba clenched his fists angrily. Even if he hadn't been a good friend to her as of recent years, he did still care about her. He growled under his breath as Naruto scolded the two.

"What do you know about her anyway? Have you taken the chance to talk to her and get to know her? Or is she just a freak because she's smart and keeps to herself?" Naruto asked trying not to let his anger get the best of him. Sakura gasped, she hadn't seen Naruto get so angry about her and Ino being rude in awhile. The last time he'd gotten that angry, they had made a comment about his cousin, not knowing she was his cousin. They shook it off and shrugged.

"It's not like she's letting us get to know her," Sakura tried to defend their actions. Naruto scoffed and shook his head as Kiba walked away so he wouldn't hit anyone or anything. Sasuke was shocked that Naruto had been able to put up a good argument, and even more shocked that he hadn't noticed that the subject of the argument had come and gone.


Gaara pulled into his garage and turned off his motorcycle. Hinata released her grip on his upper body and got off of the bike as he put the kickstand down. He got off and shook his hair, sending little droplets of water everywhere. Hinata giggled as she pulled his helmet off and handed it to him. "Well that was fun," She told him while referring to the ride over. He shrugged and smiled as he hit the button to close the garage door. He opened the door connecting to the garage and walked in, holding it open for Hinata to walk through.

She glanced around the hallway she had stepped into and smiled and how it felt more homey than the hallways back at her own home. She shook off her random sad thoughts and followed Gaara into a living room that seemed to be never-ending. The huge room had a few windows that gave a look at the front yard. There was a huge entertainment center with a big flat screen TV. She took the towel Gaara offered her and wrapped it around her to warm up and continued looking around the room. There were video game systems hooked up to the TV, a cabinet that had many video games and DVDs, a stereo, a large comfy looking sofa, a comfy looking recliner and a coffee table. She could only guess how much this room alone cost. "Wow."

"Yeah, dad wanted us to stay entertained while he had meetings with important people. The walls are actually sound proof too," He said with a chuckle. Hinata looked up at him and tilted her head to the side. "Oh, I said you'd meet my sister. She's probably making something in the kitchen. Let's go," He took her hand without a thought and lead her towards the kitchen.

Hinata swallowed the lump in her throat as she noticed the little shock that went up her arm as he took her hand in his. She felt her cheeks heat up and looked at the floor as he lead her to his kitchen. She shook away the thoughts. When she looked up again, they were in a beautiful kitchen, and there was a girl standing in front of the freezer looking on in disgust. She had blonde hair down to just past her shoulders and was in a purple t-shirt and black jeans. "Is this all they eat?" She grumbled to herself sounding irritable.

"Hey Temari," Gaara greeted with a smile on his face. The girl turned and walked over with a bright smile on her face too.

"Hey Gaara. Is this all you guys eat?" She gestured to various frozen dinners. Gaara shrugged before looking up at Temari with a deadly serious expression on his face.

"You've eaten Kankuro's cooking right? You'd rather I went back to that?" Temari cringed and shook her head. "And we both know I can only cook out of boxes so, yes frozen meals are all we eat," He stated with a small smile on his face. Temari shook her head and gave a sad smile.

"I just wish you still lived close enough to run some food over when I wanted to. Oh well, guess I'll just have to make you dinner tonight to make up for it," She said with a chuckle before finally noticing Hinata. "Oh Gaara," She smiled happily. "Who is this?" She walked over to Hinata and offered the girl her hand.

"This is Hinata Hyuuga, she goes to Konoha high with me," Temari nodded and smiled at the girl, very happy that Gaara had been able to make at least one friend.

"I'm Temari Sabaku, his older sister," She said as she pointed at Gaara. Hinata smiled and shook Temari's hand with a small smile.

"As he said, I'm Hinata," She smiled shyly before she let curiosity get the best of her. "What are you going to make for dinner?" Temari shrugged before getting a knowing smirk on her face.

"You like cooking?" Hinata nodded with a small smile.

"I don't get to cook very often. My father usually has our chef make something, and then I clean up," She said with a frown on her face. She had once been scolded for making breakfast and glanced away from Temari feeling upset.

Temari frowned as well and shook her head. "Why don't you help me make dinner. We can talk and Gaara can go find Kankuro," Temari stated as she smiled sweetly at Gaara. Gaara frowned and rolled his eyes before nodding and walking out of the kitchen, and leaving the two girls alone to talk.
