"HOTARU! GET UP! YOU BITCH!" A voice yelled, pulling me from my sleep. I opened my eyes, feeling pressure on my chest. I opened my eyes to see Temari sitting on my chest. "Fuck you Temari" I said, closing my eyes. "Was that really necessary?" Gaara's voice asked. "Yes. Yes it was. Come one Hotaru, time to get up" I glared at her. "Why?" I asked looking at the clock. 8:35 am. "Coz." I gave her a death glare and pushed her off of me. She landed on the floor with a satisfying thud. She grabbed my arm and pulled me on the floor, wrapping her legs around my waist, holding me to her. "TEMARI!" I shouted. "Kankuro! Now!" She yelled. Kankuro ran in throwing a bucket of water over me. "OH YOU ARE SO DEAD!" I shouted, whipping my head back and slamming into temari's nose, who yelped, letting me go . I got up, sprinting after Kankuro. Gaara stepped out of my way, giving me free rein to kill his brother. Kankuro was laughing his ass of, running up on the next floor. I jumped up in front of him, tackling him to the ground and punching me in the face.
He laughed, blocking my attacks, which pissed me off further. Time to play dirty. I kicked him in the balls and he screamed out. "Bitch!" I said grabbing himself. I jumped off of him, looking around for Temari. She was down the hallway, holding her nose. She screamed and began running as I took off after her. When I was close enough, I jumped on her and we fell down the stairs, hitting each other in the process. She was laughing. WE came to a stop at the bottom of the stairs, in front of Gaara's feet. I pulled my arm back and went to punch Temari's face. I hit her once and she yelled, rolling us over and pulling her arm back for a punch. She landed her fist right in my nose and pulled back for another, I shut my eyes, but the blow never came. I opened my eyes and looked at Temari, who was holding her fist close to my face, laughing. I giggled and kicked her off of me, before glomping gaara. He caught me skilfully. I kissed his lips, which he returned happily.
"You realise, you are covered in blood, some one is gonna think either A) You commited mass murder, or B) I am abusing you." I laughed and shrugged. "Temmie, why did you wake me up?" I asked her. She shrugged getting up. She had blood on her nose and upper lip. She had some on her fist too. "I think we should take a photo!" She said. I nodded. "Kankuro! Come here! We are taking a bloody photo" I giggled. "Pun intended?" I asked. "Very much so" She said smirking. Kankuro was at the bottom of the stairs within seconds and Temari and Kankuro came to stand next to me and gaara. Gaara put me down and smiled at the camera the Temari had set to go off in twenty seconds. I stood behind gaara slightly and was doubled over, Temari was on my back, making the peace sign with her tounge out and one arm resting on my head. Kankuro had Gaara in a head lock, and gaara was glaring at him. There was a flash and the picture was taken. Temari jumped off of me and I jumped onto Gaara again, cuddling him. He chuckled. "Shower time missy" He said. I shook my head. "No! I want to hug my Gaara" I said stubbornly.
"Gaara, Kankuro and I are going for our mission now that we had out fun" Temari said. Gaara nodded and they walked out the door. "Shower. Now" He ordered like the Kazekage he is. "No!" I said like the stubborn bitch I am. Gaara raised an imaginary eyebrow at me and chucked me over his shoulder, walking up that stairs. "Hey! Gaara! No fair!" I said hitting his back. His chuckled at me, putting me down in the bathroom. "Have fun" He teased. I frowned and nodded as gaara left the bathroom

I wandered out of the bathroom in a towel, clean of blood. Gaara was sitting in the chair in the corner of the room reading a book. I smirked and got dressed. He wasn't really reading it, I could see him watching me, that and the book was upside down. I giggled internally, getting dressed. "You know, you must be having a hell of time reading that book" I said. "Whys that?" Gaara questioned. "Well, for one, you're watching me, Two, Its upside down" Gaara looked at the book and flipped it around. "No it isn't" I laughed at him and walked over, jumping in his lap. "Hey sexy" I said. Gaara chuckled and wrapped his arms around me. I looked up into his eyes. It was easy to get lost in them. "Your eyes are pretty" I said. He did the same thing any guy does when you say anything about them is pretty. He made a face and rolled his eyes. "Right" he said. I laughed. "They are" gaara shrugged and broke the eye contact, kissing my cheek.
"Why aren't you at work?" I asked. "Because it's Saturday" I nodded then did a double take. "It is?" Gaara nodded. "Yup" I shrugged and put my head on his chest. "So what are we doing today?" I questioned. Gaara shrugged. "Whatever. I don't care" I sighed. "Real help Gaara. You're supposed to be smart". "You get that" I glared at him and poked out my tongue which he grabbed. I bit down on his fingers and he pulled away wincing, making me laugh. "Suck That Kazekage" he glared. "Hey Gaara?" he looked down at me. "Yeah?" He questioned. "You still afraid of your own blood?" He glared. "I'm not afraid of anything and I never have been" he said. "Yeah, tell that to everyone who watched the Chunin exams" I scoffed, earning myself a smack over the back of the head.
"Why did you ask?" He said. I smirked and pointed to his hand, which was bleeding from my bite. Gaara's eyes went wide. "Its...its...it's..." He started. "Blood" I finished for him. Gaara started hyperventilating. "Hey! Its only blood!" I said using my shirt to stop the blood. He slowly started calming down.
"Not scared of your own blood at all" He glared at me and stood up, making me fall on the floor. "Hey!" I yelled throwing fire at him. His sand blocked it and he turned to glare coldly at me. "I was joking Gaara! You didn't need to have a fit!" He glared harder at me. "Get up" He instructed coldly. I gulped and stood up. Gaara walked over to me threateningly and pushed me backwards, making me fall on the bed. My eyes went wide. I wasn't expecting that. Gaara crawled on top of me and sat on my stomach, so I couldn't move. "Gaara, What are you doing?" He smirked evilly at me and I gulped. Shit. "I'm getting payback" he said as he began tickling me. I screamed. "No! Stop! Not Fair!" I said between laughs.
His fingers were making my sides ache and it really sucked. "Gaara-ahahahah-stop-ahahahha-Onegai-ahahhah!" Gaara didn't stop. "If I wet the bed, you are cleaning it!" Gaara stopped abrutly and kissed my neck. "I'd rather not" he said when he pulled away. "So would I, but you know" he said as he kissed my neck again, making me giggle. "Why are you laughing?" gaara asked curiously. "Because it tickles" Gaara chuckled against my neck and kissed down my jaw line, to my lips.
"Hey Hotaru?" Gaara said. "Hm?" I asked. "Will you marry me?" He said looking me in the eyes. My breath hitched in my throat "A-are you serious?" I asked when I could finally talk. Gaara kissed my lips. "Deadly" I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. "yes! Yes! Yes!" I said hugging him to death. Gaara smiled huge at me and hugged me to him. "Fantastic" he said kissing me everywhere. I laughed at him.

Temari smiled brightly at me as she pulled me down the street to hers and Shikamaru's house. "Thank you so much Hotaru" She said. I smiled at her. "its not a problem" I said as we walked into the house. "Sakura, Ino, tenten and Hinata will be here tomorrow" I nodded. "Ok" She said as she got me to try on her bridesmaids dress. It was purple, her favourite colour. Temari was at the bottom of the dress, doing something that I wasn't bothering to pay attention too. "Hey Temari?" I said. "What?" She mumbled as she had a pin in her mouth. "Gaara asked me to marry him last night" Temari froze and hugged me tight. "Oh My god! Awesome! Tell me the whole thing" She said. I giggled at her. "Well, I pissed him off a bit and he pushed me on the bed and began kissing me, then he asked me. At first I thought he was joking so asked him if he was being serious and he said he was being deadly serious and I said yes and we kissed and hugged and that was it" I said. Temari smirked at me. "That was it? Or that is all your willing to tell me?" She asked looking up from the dress. I made a face at her making her laugh. "I'm not answering that. God you are as bad as Kankuro" She giggled. "Runs in the family. Gaara included" I laughed. "I'm well aware of his perverted ways" She laughed at me and directed me to the bathroom to take the dress off.
I took it off and she got into hers. It was really pretty. Gaara was paying for it and the whole wedding, because when Gaara wants to do something, you don't tell Gaara no. It was long and had a short train because Temari isn't that excessive. "Wow" I said. She smiled at me. "I know" She said. "Don't tell Gaara, but I am really glad that he wanted to pay for the wedding otherwise my dress wouldn't be this amazing" I smiled at her. "Yes, I don't know why you tried to argue with him. Gaara always wins" Temari shrugged, taking off her dress. "I have a reputation to uphold" I giggled at her and helped her put our dresses away. "When the girls get here, I will let you know when we are gonna do there dresses" Temari said. I nodded. "Alright, what do you want to do now?" I asked. "Flowers?" I nodded and Temari locked up while I waited for her.
"So, its about time Gaara maned up" She said. i giggled. "yeah, I thought he was never going to ask" I said smirking. Temari giggled. "We should just look at flowers and wait for Ino before we by any. She is a pro with flowers" Temari nodded. "I want her expert opinon" I smiled at her teasingly. "What? mine not good enough?" Temari laughed.

"I'm gonna go see Shikamaru, what are you doing?" Temari asked. "Oh, I was gonna go see if Gaara wanted to get some lunch" Temari nodded and hugged me tight. "Thanks for helping me today sis" I smiled. "It's not a problem" I said as I turned to walk towards the Kazekage tower
I pushed the doors open and made my way up the first flight of stairs. "Hello Hotaru" A familiar voice said. I looked up to see Itachi walking down the stairs. "Hey Weasel!" He glared at me as I hugged him. "Got a mission?" I asked as I let him go and continued up the stairs. "Yes, I will see you around Sis" I smiled and waved good bye to him, continuing up the stairs. I stopped in front of Gaara's door and knocked. "Come in beautiful" He said detecting my chakra signature. I pushed the door open and skipped over to his desk, where he was sitting leaning back in his chair with his arms crossed over his chest, smirking at me. I pecked him on the lips. "Want to go get lunch?" I asked him. He shrugged. "Sure" He said standing and taking off the Kazekage robes, where his usual clothes were underneath. "Let's go" he said grabbing my hand and pulling me with him out the door. We ran into Baki on the way. "Hello Sabaku No Gaara, Hello Hotaru to be Sabaku" he said winking. I looked up at Gaara who was scratching the back of his neck nervously. "I kinda asked him for advice" Gaara said doing something with his hand, gesturing to Baki. I smirked. "Really? Baki You are perverted" I said. Baki smirked and crossed his arms over his chest and Gaara chuckled nervously. "Ah ha hahha ha- Whoa" Gaara said. "Gaara didn't do a thing I said. He told me this morning" I smirked at him. "How much did Gaara tell you?" I asked with an eyebrow raised. "Alright lets go" Gaara said covering my ears and pulling me down the stairs.
Damn Perverted Kazekage
Gaara uncovered my ears when we got to the stairs. "Everything!" Baki shouted at me. "Baki~!" Gaara groaned. I shook my head and walked down the stairs, not bothering to hide the smirk beginning to form over my face. Gaara saw it and sighed in relief, knowing I wasn't going to kill him for telling Baki. "So how are Temari's dresses?" Gaara asked. "They are really pretty. I like them" I said. Remembering Temari's words. Don't tell Gaara but... "Good. Just asking so I know you and my sister aren't throwing my money away" I smiled up at him. "Me? throw away your money? Never!" Gaara chuckled and kissed my cheek.
We walked into the restaurant and Gaara picked a seat at the back. We sat there quietly for a few moments. "Can I take your order?" A woman asked breaking the silence. "Oh, Um I will just have a tea" I said the waitress nodded, writing it down. "And for you Lord Kazekage?" She said sweetly batting her eyelashes at him. I glared at her. "Ramen" Gaara said coldly not looking at her. "Okay" She said walking away. "Bitch" I muttered under my breath. Gaara chuckled at me. "Yeah I know" He said grabbing my hand. "Don't worry. Are you not hungry?" I questioned. I shook my head. "Whores make me lose my appetite" Gaara chuckled at me. "Come sit here" Gaara said gesturing next to him. I picked up my chair and mover next to him. He turned towards me smiling. "What?" I asked as he began playing with my hair. "Oh nothing" I raised an eyebrow at him but left it at that. The waitress came back several minutes later and handed Gaara his food and me my drink. "Here sweetie" She said to Gaara. "Thanks" He said and tightened his hold on my hand. "How about we do something later?" The waitress said to Gaara. I glared at her. How about no? Gaara shot her a look. "If you don't mind, I'm trying to enjoy my lunch with my fiancé, and would appreciate it if you left us alone" Gaara said coldly throwing her a glare I haven't seen him wear in a long time
The waitress gasped and looked at us wide eyed. "Sorry" She said and walked away quickly. Gaara looked down at me, his glare softening into a smirk. He leant down and kissed me softly. I rested my head on his shoulder as he began eating. I wander what Sasuke is doing? I shrugged internally deciding I didn't care. "I love you" Gaara said. I smiled at him. "I love you too" I said. He smirked at me and went back to eating. "I don't know if I want to drink this..." I said suspicious. Gaara chuckled. "Don't worry, it should be fine" I shrugged, trusting his judgment, and took a sip. It tasted fine, But that's how it all starts...
Gaara wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into his lap. He was done. Already. I smiled and leaned into his chest contently. He rested his head on my shoulder. "You don't have to drink that If you don't want to" Gaara said noting my expression. I smiled and set my cup down earning a laugh from Gaara. He pulled some money out and set it on the table. The waitress came over and took the money, giving Gaara something. I glared at her as she walked off swinging her hips in a provocative way. Gaara was looking at the folded note in his hand, raising an eyebrow at it. I snatched it out of his hand -which we both know he let me do- and opened it.
Hey sexy, screw your fiancé and come see me later
Xoxo Yumi
I glared and flipped it over, reading the address on the back. I growled and walked over to the front desk. "Hello, is there a problem?" The guy asked me. I nodded. "very much so, Can I please see the manager?" I questioned. The guy nodded and disappeared somewhere through the doors behind him. He returned moments later with another taller man, he looked to be in his forties. "Hello Miss, I'm Aki, the manager. What is the problem today?" He asked all official. I handed him the note and he read it. He sighed and shook his head. "Who is your finace? Could we speak with him?" He asked. "yes you may. And he just so happens to be Lord Gaara" I said. The manager's eye went wide. "Are you serious? She said this to the Kazekage?" I smiled at his little panic attack. "that would be correct" Gaara said coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist.
"Please don't shut us down Lord Gaara!" Aki said. Gaara shook his head. "I'm sorry, but Hotaru is the one calling the shots right now. If she wants me to...then I will..." He said. Aki looked really freaked out. "Don't worry. I wouldn't dream of shutting you down, however, I would dream of that bitch being fired and never working as a waitress again, though I doubt anyone would want to hire someone who flirts with a Kazekage in a relationship" I said. Aki's eyes softened and he smiled huge at me, sighing in relief. "Consider it done" He then turned and whisteled. "Yumi!" He called out and she looked over at us, running over. "Yes sir?" She questioned. Everything in her movement shoed that she was nervous. She was sweating, her voice was squeaky and she was gripping nervously at her dress.
"You. Are. Fired!" The manager said angrily at her. She started complaining to her boss and I turned to Gaara, who was smirking. "What?" I questioned innocently. He smirked wider and shook his head, pulling me out of the restaurant behind him.
