WW0604: Hi, me again. Sorry I haven't been updating lately. Yesterday was my b-day and I once again lost my memory card, so I am now attempting to do my fanfic work without the info and side notes I use. Haha. I'm so glad a lot of people have been enjoying my stories and plan on continuing them.
I DO NOT OWN NARUTO OR ANY OF ITS CHARACTERS!!
I have started a new Death Note fanfic. It is also my first Death Note fanfic, so take a look at it and let me know what u think. D
Chapter 7: Fret
The two teens, still on the couch sleeping had no idea what was coming for them. 40 minutes has passed since Neji finished his pizza and Temari and Kankuro is now arriving that the front door of their home. The door clicked as it unlocked, but didn't wake the teens. What woke them was the shout of surprise from the older teens.
"What fuck is this shit??" Kankuro and Temari both yelled together. Gaara jumped off of Neji's lap and sat straight up on the couch. Neji also jumped from getting shocked by the yelling and fell off the couch and onto the floor with a thud.
"You guys are home early." Gaara said from his seat on the couch. Temari looked at the clock that was hanging over the T.V. causing Gaara to look also. It read 1:46 pm. Gaara looked back at Temari and Kankuro and did an innocent, guilty laugh. "Okay, maybe you guys are a little late."
"Damn right we're late! And why is that boy in our home?!" Kankuro yelled from beside Temari.
"Once again, the names Neji!!" Neji hollered from the floor. Kankuro rolled his eyes and said, "You still aren't suppose to be here."
"And you are? You two aren't worth being called his older siblings!! You act like he means SHIT to you! Not going after him when he was running off school grounds. He was obviously hurt, but you two didn't do a damn thing to help him, now did you?!" Neji yelled, now past his limit on how Gaara has been treated. Gaara stared at Neji, totally shocked at the sudden outburst that Gaara didn't think Neji had in him.
"Don't you dare criticize how Temari and I raise our brother! We are all he has, so we do what we can!" Kankuro yelled back. Temari was still too shocked from Neji's outburst to say anything at this point. It is an all out yelling battle between Neji and Kankuro at this time. Gaara looked over at Temari who was staring blankly at Neji. He then looked at Kankuro who was way too busy with Neji to even notice Gaara. Finally, Gaara looks over at Neji, who was still yelling back and forth with Kankuro. He too didn't seem to be paying much attention to Gaara, so Gaara took this chance to make an all out run for his room. Neji saw the movement and watched as Gaara ran for his room. Temari and Kankuro soon saw Gaara run shortly after Neji.
"Great." Neji sighed out, feeling bad for yelling like that right in front of Gaara. Neji slowly stood up and started to walk towards Gaara's room. Temari and Kankuro were about to stop him, but Neji spoke before them. "If you want to prove that you care you wouldn't kick me out right now. Instead you should come with me to Gaara's room to apologize."
"Don't tell us what to do brat!" Kankuro was about to rush after Neji to hit him, but Temari held her arm out in front of Kankuro and looked at him.
"Neji's right about everything he said. We haven't been showing how much we love Gaara in the correct way. That's what they meant when they said we don't know Gaara. If we did know him, we would have realized this without the help of his friend." Temari calmly said to Kankuro, now lowering her arm to let him do as he pleases. Kankuro just looked at the floor, ashamed at how he was wrong again. The two teens walked up to Neji. The three of them went to Gaara's bedroom door and quietly decided that Neji should enter the room first since Gaara was obviously more comfortable around him.
"I'm coming in Gaara." Neji said right before opening the door. Neji quickly stepped into the room and shut the door behind him.
-in Gaara's room-
Neji entered Gaara's room and quickly shut the door behind him. He then looked over that the corner Gaara usually sits in and saw him there, once again crying. Neji approached the boy and hugged him in a tight and comforting hug.
"Gaara, sshhh." Neji whispered. Gaara just wrapped his arms around Neji and cried on his shoulder, being sure to not cry too loudly for Temari and Kankuro to hear. Neji also let his own tears free from being held back. The two cried in each other's arms, not wanting to let go of each other any time soon. After the two were done crying, Temari and Kankuro entered the room to see Neji and Gaara sitting on Gaara's bed looking at them
"Gaara, we're sorry for the outburst and for everything we have done wrong." Temari started. Gaara nodded his head and leaned against Neji, resting his head on Neji's shoulder. "Is he okay?"
"Yeah, just tired." Neji answered, softly stroking Gaara's hair to drift him off to sleep. Neji then laid Gaara down and walked up to the older teens. "I should go. If I'm any more late I'm going to have an even more worse yelling battle with my parents." Temari and Kankuro moved aside and let Neji leave.
The next day was a Saturday. Temari and Kankuro were out at their part time jobs, so Neji thought that he and Gaara should go out on a little date. Neji thought this would be a good time to learn a little more about Gaara.
"So, where are we going?" Gaara questioned. He was in a pair of black, lose fit jeans and a white t-shirt that said 'Two siblings. Buy one get one free!' He also had a black jacket on over his t-shit to hide his arms.
"I though we should go get something to eat first and have a little talk to learn a little more about each other." Neji answered who was warring black shorts with a tan type shirt. Gaara just smiled and reached for Neji's hand. Neji also reached over and grabbed Gaara's hand and held it in his own. They soon reached their destination and ordered their food. Gaara had just started to eat when he noticed Neji's serious face.
"Is something the matter?" Gaara asked. Neji looked in Gaara's eyes and sighed.
"I guess. I want to ask you a few things, but you might take it offensive or something. I don't want to risk our relationship, so maybe I shouldn't say anything."
"You can ask. It's probably not the first time I heard the question."
"No, I'm sure it will be the first. Unless someone else knows about your secret." Neji quickly pointed at Gaara's arm. Gaara looked at it and placed his hand on it.
"You are the first to know. You can still ask, I'll just let you know if I don't like to topic." Neji hesitated for a moment, still not sure if it's worth the risk. He really liked Gaara regardless of what his way of handling things are.
"Alright. Who got you into doing that to yourself?"
"They're my decision." Gaara quickly answered.
"Okay, but who influenced you?"
"No one influenced me. Didn't I already tell you that?"
"Umm, yeah I guess you did. Why do you do it?"
"It's what I want to do when I'm down or whatever."
"That's your only reason why you do it?" Gaara nodded his head, taking another bite of his food. Neji did the same before continuing with the questions. "Don't you want help or anything to make it stop?"
"No, I can make it on my own." Gaara said as he started to remove his jacket and hang it on the back of his chair.
"Umm, people will see if you have your jacket off."
"I'm not afraid to let my scars be shown. As long as it's not my brother or sister." Gaara said in a bit of an irritated tone. Neji took that as a sign to stop the questions. He asked what he wanted to know most, so he was glad to get that at least.
"I just worry, that's all. I'm your new boyfriend after all." Neji said. Gaara blushed and hid his head in his arms. "Sorry, did I embarrass you?" Neji laughed.
"Yea a bit." Gaara said as he nodded his head. Neji smiled and got up off his chair and went over to Gaara. He placed a hand of Gaara's back, causing Gaara to jump out of his seat a bit. Neji laughed at Gaara's reaction and kissed the boy. Gaara kissed back and leaned into the kiss a bit. The two drew a bit of attention, but they didn't mind. They soon parted from their kiss and left money for their food.
After leaving the restaurant, Neji started to take Gaara home since it was getting too late for Neji to take him to where he planed.
"Where were we going to go today?" Gaara questioned. Neji looked over at him and smiled, giving Gaara a little kiss on the cheek.
"I'll show you tomorrow. Hey do you like to take pictures? I saw a camera in your room and thought that you might like photography."
"Yeah I do like it a bit. I mainly use photography as my cover up for my art. Temari and Kankuro think that photography is my most favorite thing to do, but really I like to draw more. I use the camera to take scenery photos for my artwork though, so it's not like a dust collector or anything." Neji nodded his head in understanding manner and led Gaara to the front door. He leaned forward and kissed Gaara passionately before letting Gaara get his keys to unlock the door.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow so we can do the rest of our date. How does that sound?" Gaara smiled one of me biggest smiles Neji as ever seen and nodded. Gaara then opened the door and went inside, too anxious to wait for tomorrow.
WW0604: Oh yea!! This chapter may be the longest one in the fanfic so far!! Woohoo and this chapter turned out so good. I'm glad on how it turned out. Please let me know what you all think.
Man I don't know if I'm suppose to feel different after my b-day, but oh well. I still enjoy typing up fanfics just the same as ever.
