Since I finished one of my three essays I decided to update. I'm adding the chapter I skipped to this chapter.


(Week later)

Sakura was walking home from training with her team and she wanted to strangle Sasuke. "Why am I stuck on a team with an arrogant prick."

"Who?"A voice

Sakura turned around and saw Gaara. She sighed. "Sasuke."

Gaara growled. "Damned Uchiha upsetting our mate."

Sakura heard the whistle of a kunai. She reached her hand up and grabbed it before it could reach its target. She started to spin it around on her finger. "Hey Gaara want to come over to dinner tonight? My parents want to meet you."

"Should I?"

"She is our mate. We might as well meet her parents."

Gaara nodded his head in response. "Great come by at around 5:30." Sakura gave him a kiss on the cheek then ran home to tell her parents.

(Skipping a few hours)

It was 5:20 and Gaara would show up in about 10 minutes. Sakura was helping her mom set the table when the door bell rang. She ran to the door and opened it. "Hey Gaara come in." She moved aside so he could walk in. "Mom Gaara and I are going to my room!"

"Alright dear. I'll call you guys down when dinner is finished."

Sakura grabbed Gaara's wrist and dragged him up the stairs. They walked into her room and Gaara looked around. Her walls and floor were a dark green color. All of her furniture was either dark green or black. She sat on her bed. Gaara removed his gourd and set it on the ground. He then leaned against the wall.

"So Gaara what's the mission that you have?" Gaara looked at her with shock. "Yes I know that you are here for a mission. I heard Temari and Kankuro talking. So whats your mission.?"

Gaara looked at her. "I can't tell you." He said quietly.

"Yes you can."

"The mission is." He stopped for a second then continued. "To destroy Konoha."

Sakura looked at him with shock. "Why?"

"I was ordered to."

Sakura was about to say something else but her mom called them for dinner. They both got up and went downstairs. They walked into the dining room. She sat across form her mom and Gaara sat across from her dad. Sakura's mom set a bowl of spaghetti and a plate of garlic toast on the table.(a/n That sounds really good right now) Everyone got some food and started eating.

Sakura's mother decided to break the silence. "Gaara were do you come from."

"Suna." Gaara said.

"Why are you here?"

"He's in the chuunin exams dad. He's in the finals."

When everyone finished with there food Sakura's mother gathered up the dishes. "Sakura will you help me with the dishes?'

"Sure mom." Sakura followed her mother into the kitchen. Her mother started washing the dishes while Sakura dried and put them away.

"Sakura is he your boyfriend?"

"No." "I'm technically not lying since I'm his mate but she doesn't need to know that."

"When did you meet him?"

"A day before the chuunin exams started."

Sakura was about to but a plate away but the room started spinning. Sakura dropped the plate and fell. Someone caught her. She could hear her mother calling her name before she went unconscious.


Wonder what's going to happen next. Well I don't but you guys probably do. I'll update as soon as I finish the second book and get another essay written. R&R
