Match Made in Suna

Chapter 7

What's your name again?

A/n: I couldn't do it. I was having withdrawals from not writing for you guys. I love you all soo soo much, and I don't really mind if I don't get hundreds of views. I get more ones for lemons and stuff. TY all so much!!

Oh, btw, Twisted love story is coming by slowly, but it will happen don't worry.

I sat down at my desk sifting through old paper work coming across a small folded paper lying half open on my desk. A messy scrawl of my name was on the front.

"Naruto you dobe," I shook my head smirking and unfolded the card reading the chicken scratch inside.

'Gaara! I'm so exsited for yur wedding dayte! Isn't she amasing? I kno you'll love her lots.

Sighned Naruto, Belive itt!'

I lifted my eyes to the green ones in front of me watching the girl who was re-dressed crossing her legs and chewing on an apple, her medium length straight hair hung over one shoulder.

I looked her over a few times her hair hanging down, bangs covering one eye.

She leaned over chewing annoyingly in my ear on her red apple. "kawaii Naru-kun!"

She picked up the card and swung it around holding it against her chest and smiling.

"Isn't that sweet kazekage Sama?" She smiled lightly at me opening it and running her fingers softly over the lettering.

I nodded keeping my mouth shut my stomach tightening in a knot. She sounded so familiar; acted just like kuurio…

I opened my mouth to speak again, but she began to talk again so I closed my mouth and stayed quiet tending to my work.

I might as well make the best of the situation…"Hey, you."

She stopped spinning around and looked at me her hair swooshing to the side slightly.

"I have a name y'know." She stuck her tongue out playfully

I sighed, "Well what is it?"

She thought for a moment. "Don't wanna tell ya." She laughed again and I gave up.

"Okay, fine, come here. I have a few questions to ask."

She nodded and came over to me sitting down on the desk crossing her legs.

"Like twenty questions?" I nodded slowly watching her bright smile grow, green eyes twinkling.

"Awesome! Me first,"

"Okay," I said quietly getting back to work.

She thought for a moment. "Oooh Okay, what's your name?"

I shook my head. "Kazekage sama,"

She was quiet for a minute. "Kay you're turn!"

I sighed. "What's your favorite color?"

She smiled and sat straight up. "That's easy, blue!" She closed her eyes.

"Ah, mines, err red if you're wondering…"

"Nope" She shook her head, "I figured from your hair color."

"Of course you did,"

This was awkward; I don't know how to make small talk. That's when I heard a bang and closed my eyes knowing instantly that it was naruto judging by my headache forming by my left temple.

"Open up!" Naruto yelled through the wooden door.

"I can't," She yelled back. "Kakashi-kun locked us in here!"

Naruto laughed and opened the door.

Her and I stared dumbfounded at the blonde.

"Naruto," She ran towards him both of them hugging each other in a death grip.

My stomach tightened again but I think it was for another reason…

Kakashi followed him inside. The gray haired Nin watched them. He crossed his arms, smirking under his face guard.

"Come on Naruto," She yelled. "I'm free!"

They both ran out and Kakashi watched Gaara with a measuring eye.

"Jealous yet gaara," He asked, and I frowned.

"Why would I be jealous?"

It's not like she was all that pretty.

It's not like I was watching her.

I wasn't jealous at all. What's to be jealous of?

"Aren't you jealous about her and Naruto?"

My stomach seemed to tighten yet again, more painful.

"No." I answered curtly.

The gray haired Nin must've known something I didn't.

"The reason she's so close with Naruto, is because he saved her life from the Akatsuki."

I sat rod straight. "Akatsuki…" I said my eyes watching him for any signs of lying.

"Exactly, she is a jinchurriki Gaara…"

My eyes widened, flashing to the spot where the girl had just been standing.

It seemed the more I learned, the less I understood about women.

I should really stop listening to my sister.

(line Break)

Gaara walked down the orange walkway to his usual thinking place.

But he wasn't there to think. He was there to find.

He'd been looking for Kuurio's ghost ever since he'd seen her dipping her feet in the water.

It was meaningless to believe that he would see her again.

But, as he rounded the corner, his breath caught in his throat.

There she was, dipping her feet in the cold lake water. His heart beat uncontrollably in his chest as he walked closer.

"Excuse me, miss?" Gaara said quietly. "What is your name?"

She looked up at him and smiled lightly her green eyes shining. "I'm kuurio…"

He shivered. "Ah, Ms. Kuurio, may I ask why you're here?"

She opened her mouth to speak but then gaara heard a familiar yell.

"Kuurio Chan! Where are you?!"

Gaara turned to watch the blonde get up and run down the orange walkway towards another blonde.

"Naruto!" She yelled and threw herself into his arms.

Gaara watched them quizzically. The boys arms wrapped protected around her waist.

His blue eyes stared down back at hers and they seemed miles away.

But before Gaara could understand what was happening, the shared a passionate kiss.

(Line Break)

My stomach dropped as I saw his lips against hers, and my heart sped up.

I tried all I could to muster up my voice but it was low and scratched.

The two parted, held hands and walked towards me.

"Kazekage-sama, I'd like you to meet my friend. Kuurio…"

The blonde girl blushed.

"This can't be happening." I managed to say.

"Well, why not gaara-kun?" She said her voice like a melody.

"You're my husband remember?" (holy crap I'm a slut!) She leaned up and kissed my lips softly.

"You just don't know it yet."

(Line Break)

I had never awoken from a dream so abruptly.

I threw my blankets to the side of my bed and strode out of my room, not even to grab a shirt.

I understood now. The reason she was so like her.

The reason Temari actually put up with her behavior. Why her and Naruto we're so close.

I turned the corner and made my way down the hallway.

It was because of her hair being curly I didn't recognize her before. It's because she was wearing a dress that she seemed so insignificant.

It was because she was so grown up she didn't remind me completely.

I opened the door and stared down at the blonde asleep in the bed, long hair thrown over one shoulder, and green shimmering eyes covered by light lids, and long feathered lashes.

I walked to her and squatted down to her level running a hand over her hair.

Her eyes fluttered open. "Kazekage-sama?" she said her voice cracking from sleep.

"I have one more question…" She looked at him confused but nodded.

"What is your name, please I need to know,"

She watched me confused seeing the serious look in my eyes.

I'd never thought I'd be so happy to learn some girls name…

"I'm Kuurio…Kuurio Sarunaga."

"That's what I thought…"

"W-what is yours?" She asked, seeming confused.

"My name is Gaara…Gaara Sabaku."

Her eyes widened. "Gaara…It's really you?"

I nodded. "We have a lot of catching up to do miss Sarunaga…"

(Line Break)

OMJ, I need to finish this story. But there is so much for you guys to learn!!

Everything will make sense, including why I didn't remember Gaara immediately, and the next two chapters are yet again fillers. But that's because I do that to buy time :D

TY!
