Jealousy
Chapter 7 / Gaara's strange encounterIno sat quietly at the Yamanaka Flower shop counter in solitude. With hands placed neatly on her lap, she sat without a sound.
Sniff sniff…Her hands reached her eyes as she wiped the tears that were begging to escape. Ino felt like crap. Could she really loose another friend over a guy? How could Temari say such a thing…how could Ino just let it happen? Ino bowed her head as she stared at the counter.
'I let her walk out of here…without me objecting to her confusion. I didn't reply, I didn't say anything. What the hell…is wrong with me?' Ino asked herself.
Whoossshh.
The wind howled outside as Ino's head raised. 'What, is the wind telling me I'm a bad person too?'
Thunder roared and Ino jumped a bit. Ino sat up, and slowly she walked towards the front door. As she came up to the door she froze… 'Temari…' she thought. Without hesitation Ino pushed the front door open and she dashed out the door in the direction of the motel.
Tup tup tup tup…Rain began to pour. She hurriedly continued to run, ignoring the few drops of water she felt falling from the sky.
Tup tup tup tup…More and more…the rain came down. Falling faster and faster, louder and louder, a nevereding shower. But still, Ino didn't care, she continued to run with only her new friend on her mind. "Gah!" Ino cried as she slipped onto the concrete floor beneath her. AS she stood there on her hands and knees, Ino felt more water on her face…but it wasn't rainwater.
"What's…wrong with me?" Ino asked herself.
Tup tup tup tup…
"Nothing." A voice said reassuringly from above. Ino suddenly felt the rain stop, but strangely she still heard it falling around her…and she saw it as well. Ino looked above her to see a big red umbrella sheltering her from the rain. "Ino…pig-chan…" said the voice again.
Sniff sniff…. "Sakura…"

Temari sat quietly at the windowsill, legs crossed as she rested her head on her hand. "Humph." She said as she stared out at the rain falling outside. The rain always seemed to depress her. 'I'm…an idiot.' She thought to herself as she remembered her stupidity with her friendship with Ino earlier.
Tup tup tup tup…sigh…
Temari turned towards her brother Kankuro who lay asleep on one of the beds of their motel room. A bag of chips was securely in his arms. "Heh. I wonder where he got those…" Temari said to herself. Her brother made her laugh…
She then heard a creak from the other side of the motel room. It was a little dark and she wasn't able to see who appeared at the door. "Ah…Gaara?" she asked, sensing her little brother. Gaara switched on the light and it illuminated the room. He nodded as he slowly walked over to his older sister.
Tup tup tup tup…
"Temari." Gaara said sternly. "You done with the Hokage business?" Temari asked as she turned back towards the window. Gaara ignored, "Where's…your friend?" he asked, with a hint of concern in his voice. "Meh…what friend?" she asked…she was serious. Gaara sensed the depression in his sister.
Tup tup tup tup…
"The…blonde one…the kunoichi from before…" Gaara said as he imagined the annoying girl in his mind. Temari remained silent. "Hm…well, whatever conflict you guys are going through right now…" he began as he walked over towards his brother. Gaara sighed as he glared at the fat ass in front of him. Beside Kankuro lay a red towel, Gaara reached for it and headed towards the bathroom door. "Get over it." Gaara said simply, his back towards Temari. Temari felt her face warm…would she take the advice of her youngest brother? 'Hell Yes.' Temari thought.
BAYUM…
The bathroom door slammed shut. Temari stared at the door as she bowed her head.
Get over it…
Her brother's words ringed through her mind. Temari stood up and walked towards the door of her motel room. 'I'm not gonna let a man…come in between me and my friend.' She thought to herself. Temari opened the door and she stepped outside. "Obviously not." She said to herself. And with that Temari walked down the hall determined to make things right again.
Behind the door of the bathroom Gaara stood with a small smile on his lips.
Dipdip dipdip…
The water dripped and Gaara looked up at the ceiling. "Heh." He laughed to himself.
---------
Tup tup tup…
The rain poured as Temari walked the streets in solitude. The sky was dark and gray due to the dark clouds hovering in the sky. The Yamanaka flower shop soon came into view. Temari was fully soaked…but she didn't seem to notice. The whole time she was walking down…she just couldn't seem to stop thinking about…non-other then Shikamaru Nara.
Koff koff…
Temari coughed. "Ugh…I'm getting sick." She complained. "Duh." She heard a voice say. Temari's head rose as she followed the familiar voice. "Temari…you know it will be very troublesome for you, me and your brothers if you catch a cold." The voice said simply. "Sh…Shikama-ATCHOO!" Temari sneezed.
Sniff…
"Ahhah…" Shikimaru chuckled a bit as he quickly walked over towards Temari and sheltered her with his umbrella. "C'mon…let go over to my place to warm up." Shikamaru offered. Temari nodded as she felt her face grow warmer. Shikimaru just chuckled again as he watched Temari blush in embarrassment. The two then walked slowly together towards the house of the Nara's.

Gaara stepped out of the bathroom as mist followed with him. Gaara turned towards one of the motel room's bed to once again see his "idiot" of a brother sleeping on it-with the bag of chips still in hand. Gaara shook his head and threw the towel on top of Kankuro's face. He didn't seem to notice. Gaara then noticed the sudden light that lightened the once cold and dark motel room. Finally the sun had come out.
Gaara stepped towards the windowsill to see nothing but sunshine in the air. It brought a small smile to the future Hokage's lips. Gaara then took a u-turn and walked towards the door and out into the fresh air.
As Gaara walked down the streets, he took time to look at all the shops and such that he passed. For once, he felt relaxed.
Put put put put…
Gaara heard little footsteps in the distance, but he ignored them as he continued to walk.
Put put put put…
They got louder and louder as each second passed by. Gaara sighed…they were starting to really irritate him. That's when he heard a squeakly little voice yelling in the distance. Gaara wasn't quite able to make out what the voice was saying…so he continued to wait in his spot until it became clear-Gaara was for some reason curious…the voice was drawing him in…or something.
"g…out…o…wa…!" the voice was getting a bit clearer. "Get...outta my way! …Please!" Gaara was confused. He quickly spun around to see what the problem was but as he turned he met the face…
WAHHH!
…Of a really cute girl. "UMPH!" Gaara moaned as he felt impact and was suddenly on his way to the ground.
Gaara opened his eyes to meet with the shining sun. "Ugh…" he said in pain as he felt some strange weight on his front side. "What the…" he said but suddenly paused. "Nuyuu…" he heard the squeaky voice groan. The girl opened her eyes to reveal a pair of beautiful ocean-blue eyes.
An awkward silence suddenly overcame the two, as both just continued to look eachother straight in the eye. As each second passed by, Gaara listened to how clearer his heartbeat sounded, and also at how faster it had become. His cheeks slowly began to heat as Gaara continued to examine the girl's face. She wore her blonde locks in pigtails, and also had a sand headband around her neck. Gaara suddenly snapped as he realized what he was doing. He quickly got up and turned away trying to hide his flushed face. The girl giggled as she looked up at the boy. "Gaara-sama." She said quickly standing up beside him. Confused, Gaara turned to the girl. Her head was bowed…he wasn't able to see her eyes.
"You don't have to bow…" Gaara said…sort of embarrassed. The girl giggled again as her head rose. "Uhm…nuyuu…my apologies Gaara-sama-" she began but was suddenly cut off by Gaara. "And no need for formalities." He said sternly. "Ah..okay then. My apologies…Garaa..kun." she said with a smile.
Gaara nodded, but that's when he noticed a small brown bag near his feet. He slowly bent down to grab as he noticed the delicious aroma that came from the bag itself. "Is…this your property?" Gaara asked as he handed the bag over to the girl. Gaara looked up at the girl's face…to see a look of…utter fear.
The girl's eyes were opened wide as her hand began to shake, slowly reaching over towards the bag. "Nu...nuyuu! We-We have to r-run for it!" she whispered. In an instant she grabbed the bag and with her other hand reached towards Gaara's collar. They were soon off with Gaara being dragged behind her.
