Disclaimer- Hmmm. Well, the last time I checked I didn't own Naruto so what would ever make you believe that I do now? .- It's been sooooo long since I updated Lost and Lonely. I feel kinda bad but I don't think any of you actually care. I only got a few reviews telling me to continue. -Sad face- I barely get any reviews at all. Do you guys even like my stories or what?

Good Hearted Soul

"I kinda feel bad for the kid. I know how he's feeling, except I didn't have far to fall. Him... He fell pretty far, pretty fast." Gaara said during lunch. Naruto and Hinata gaped at him as though he was insane. He felt bad for the person who had almost beaten him to death!

"Sure he fell, but he almost killed you! He needed to be brought back down to Earth!" Naruto argued. Gaara nodded slightly and glanced over at the lone boy sitting at the other side of the cafeteria. He stood without thinking.

"Stay here," he murmured, walking over to the Uchiha. Sasuke glanced up and stiffened. Gaara took the chair opposite him and stared at the ruined raven-haired boy.

"What do you want?!" He snapped coldly.

"You know you don't disserve this."

"So you're here out of pity?! Why not just leave me be?!"

"Because, even though you almost killed me, I think you could be more, should be more! You can't keep going like this. Stop hating the world! It's not going to make a difference!"

Sasuke looked away and balled his fist. A small growl escaped his throat before his fist lashed out, connecting with Gaara's cheek.

"I don't need your Bullshit! No one cares about me anymore! What would make you so different?!" The Uchiha spat at Gaara. Gaara raised his hand to his bruising cheek. This wasn't the reaction he had been expecting. He noticed slowly that he was lying on the ground with Sasuke standing over him, poised to attack again. A large group of people began to surround them.

"So you're saying you're too good for help?!" Gaara snapped from Sasukes feet. His answer was a swift kick to the ribs before the boy ran through the crowd, head-first into Naruto.

"What the hell is your problem Sasuke?! He's just trying to help!" Naruto yelled in Sasukes contorted face.

"I never asked him to! You guys should just forget about me like everyone else has!" Sasuke screamed back.

"It's kinda hard to forget someone that almost killed you." Hinata spoke up. Sasuke glared at her.

"No one asked you, Bitch!" He punched her in the face, knocking her to the ground, her lip split and her nose bleeding.

"You Bastard!" Gaara roared, springing at Sasuke, growling and snarling. He brought Sasuke to the ground, rolling on top of him. His breathing came in sharp gasps, a rib being rebroken. He pulled his fist back. "You. Bastard! You. Fuckin. Bastard!" Each word brought his fist down upon Sasukes face.

Gaara was still shaking five minutes and breathing heavily 5 minutes later, sitting in the office with Naruto, Hinata and Sasuke. His lip was bleeding slightly. Sasuke had been able to get his fist up to Gaara again, but only once. Naruto was the only one of the four that didn't have any injuries. He was just there as a witness.

Shizune had looked up at the sound of the office door being opened during lunch. Her eyes had widened with shock when she seen Kakashi and Jiaraya hauling in the bloodied mass.

"What the heck happened here?!" she gasped. Sasuke glared, but the other three looked away. They sat, waiting, for Tsunade to call them in. Gaara held Hinata delicately, favouring his broken rib.

Tsunade came in ten minutes after they arrived and looked at them each in turn.She folded her arms across her chest and half smirked.

"what type of mess have you gotten yoursleves into this time?"She asked harsly. Gaara glanced at her, but said nothing. Naruto wa sthe first to speak.

"Gaara was just being dumb. He thought he could change Sasuke again. Of course, with Sasukes temper a fight broke out. Sasuke punched Hinata which set Gaar off."

Naruto lowered his head when he noticed all the eyes staring at him. Sasuke was now shaking with anger. That true, Gaara?" She asked needlessly. Of course that's how it happened, Gaaras nod was proof enough. Sasuke growled. Tsunade sighed.

"What am i to do with you, Sasuke? I think you need to be suspened for a while. Unless you show a little more self-control that is the only option, i think." Tsunade put her hand on her forehead. "You people can go now. I suggest you go see the nurse about that rib of yours, Gaara-san."

Gaara nodded. They all left the office and it started again. Sasuke grabbed Gaara loosely by the throat. Tears of frustration were stinging in his eyes.

"If you had just left me a-alone I wouldn't be getting suspended!" He pushed his head down on Gaaras chest. "If it wasn't for you I'd still be the heaed of the school. If it wasn't for you ... I would still be happy. It's all because of you!"

Gaara just stood there. He wasn't expecting that. He was expecting to gte the shit beat out of him. He looked at Naruto who shrugged. What a great help he was.

"If I wronged you that much, why not let me make it better? I could help you get better." The words flowed from his mouth before he even thought them. Sasuke looked up. Kindness? That had never truely been shown to him. He thought for two seconds before nodding slightly.

"Would you really help me? I've hurt you really bad though!"

"But you said i hurt you. i think that evens it out. I don't thinkit's right that you still have to hurt for stuff i did in the past. Sorry."

At that, Sasuke let go of Gaara and his control. He sank to his knees and began shaking with silent sobs.

'Thank you, Gaara-sma. I don't have to hurt anymore.'
