So, it's been about a month since then, and things are going pretty boring.
First, we'll start with Hinata and Naruto. They both have my cell phone number, and when Gaara is officially asleep, I sneak over to their house. We talk about how everything's been, and how we might be able to get Gaara's memory back-no exact plans/ideas yet.
Then, we move to Raido. He really shouldn't even be on this short list, but he has created a problem. He likes me. And I don't mean just a tiny little lusty crush-oh no. It's a full on, want to ask me out crush. He's already tried multiple times, but each time, I catch it, and I end up bringing something up that drowns out the topic. Also, it's getting quite annoying. I could deal with all that; Hell, Naruto even thought it might help Gaara remember something. But…it doesn't exactly have that effect…'Cause Raido is starting to…be-grudge Gaara. I make it farely obvious that I have feelings for Gaara-not the fool extent of course-but I don't care how obvious it is. And Raido is getting jealous.
As for my precious Gaara…nothing. He hasn't gotten a single memory back-as far as we know-yet. The closest we get is a once in a while déjà vu. But the good thing is, I'm positive Gaara likes me. He's showed the obvious things already: the need to touch me-but inconspiculously, talking to me constantly about anything and everything, carrying my books when they look heavy-which I refuse to let him do-and lastly, he's shown signs of jealousy. Which is one of my favorite things.
"Alright class, today-and for the rest of the month-you will be working with a partner of your choice, and I want you to write a song. Now, it doesn't matter if you have a singer or not, just as long as you both contributed to this assignment. Also, I realize that some of you will finish well before the month, so, I advise you to just practise then. Any questions?"
Some dude raised his hand. "Can I be partners with Sakura?"
What?! "That's completely up to Ms. Kuran, not me." The dude looked at me, and I looked away. "Now, within the next ten minutes, I want you all to find a partner. Once you have one, I want both of uou to come up and tell me what you'll be using." And with that, he went to his desk and sat down.
I looked at Gaara automatically, and I saw him already staring at me. "Partners?" he asked, thoughts of rejection already in his voice.
I smiled at him and shook my head. "Of course."
His eyes lit up with happiness, and it took all my self-control to not hug and kiss him.
"Sakura?" I turned around, and saw that one dude. Ah, crap. "Um, I was wondering…do you wanna' be partners?"
I was about to speak, but Gaara interrupted. "Sorry dude, but she's mine."
My eyes widened as I heard that statement. That's something Gaara would've said! My Gaara! My beautiful, strong, over-protective Gaara!
I looked at him, feeling the blush reach up to my cheaks. "So, um…you gonna' do the guitar?"
He looked at me, as if realization hit his face. Not the realization I wanted, but still some, at least. "Yeah, I-"
"Gaara?" a girly voice sounded next to Gaara, and we looked at the petite female. I flared up in jealousy and fury as I saw how cute she was. Sure, she was in pink, and Gaara hates pink, but still! She was hot! "Um, I was wondering…do you want to be partners?"
His eyes widened in shock; after a slight pause, he was about to say something, but this time, I interrupted. "Sorry, but he's mine."
Easy enough.
But, I was wrong. The little bitch glared fiercely at me. "Excuse me, but who asked you?! I asked him, not you, you stupid little goth freak! You don't talk for him!"
I felt my fury grow, and I was about to tell her off, but a surprising, squeeky yelp was heard.
And that's when I realized Gaara punched her.
It wasn't some tiny little slap either. It was a hard punch to the nose; probably breaking it.
"Don't you ever say something like that to my Sakura again, got it?!"
His Sakura? Does he remember? What? Does he?
"G-Gaara?" He turned around and looked at me. He looked at me with something I haven't seen in Kami knows how many years. "Gaara!" I screamed, and I chucked myself at him.
Hey everyone, this is important news, so please read!
So, originally, I wasn't planning to have him remember so quickly. I originally had it taking much longer, but I really want to get to the third of this story. Already lots of ideas have popped into my head for that, and I really want to start on them. Plus, this story is getting boring for me to write, and I'm sure boring for you to wait on it. So, I do apologize for the long wait, and for the shortening of this story. But I promise! The next one will be even better!
Thank you,

PS. There will be…no more than five more chapters of this story
