Chapter 8
Sakura stood in front of the mirror and removed her clothes, dropping them on the floor quietly before stepping into the water. She moaned in satasfaction as the warm water hit her feet.
She sunk in lower until she was seated in the tub. It was as close to peace as she would receive without Gaara. She enjoyed the warm water agaist her skin for 15 minutes or so, but she began to be eager to see Gaara, and she unplugged the tub.
She wrapped a towel around her, shivering as the now seemingly colder air hit she wet shoulders. Damp hair fell around her face, and was still dripping aaround her face. The door clicked and opened quietly. She saw Gaara walk in. He looked down at her with big panda eyes.
Sakura chuckled, "Close your eyes." He did as he was told but pulled her around the waist, her partially bare back his his chest. She rested against it, and was in absolute peace now. No hot water. But Gaara. She was in peace while resting in his arms. "So, weren't you with Kankouro?"
He whispered to her, cool, sweet breath fanning across her skin, "I missed you, is that so bad?"
She turned around facing him, "No, it's not so bad I missed you too." She giggled and pressed her lips to him lightly before pulling them away.
He glared at her not liking the small kiss, he picked her up and placed her on the bathroom counter. She lifted one leg around his waist, and he lifted another to tie it around his waist. He pressed his lips to hers eagerly and began to nibble on her bottom lip, beggin desperatly for an entrance which she allowed.
His toungue battled hers, winning dominince. She brought her hands up to his face delicatly stroking it again and again, kissing him back with every peice of passion she could muster. He wrote love letter after love letter on her lips.
The towel began to fall, and she cought it breaking them from their kiss. She lifted it back up again and he was about to continue, when they heard Temari, "Gaara! Sakura! Where are you?"
He kissed her on the forehead and exited quickly. She put her feet back on the floor, and adjusted her towel then got dressed for the day. She walked out to greet Temari, Gaara and Kankouro at the table.
Temari smiled strangely at Sakura, and as Sakura sat down she noticed Kankouro looking at her the same way. She glanced at Gaara who sighed in an annoyed manor, "Temari! Kankouro! Lighten up the looks guys!" He muttered into the table.
Temari giggled, "So... you and Gaara, huh? I must say I'm pleased you two are perfect for eachother!"
Kankouro just sniggered.
Sakura sighed and looked at Gaara, he tried a smile and nodded at her, "So now you now." Sakura smiled. "Other than these two who are we telling now?"
Kankouro burst into fits of laughter, "The moment we found out, I sent a message out to all workers of Gaara. Umm, let's see: By about 12:00 everyone in Suna and Konoha will know. Then by about 4:00 every other village, rain, mist etc... will know."
Sakura couldn't help but laugh, "News travels fast doesn't it?" She smiled at Gaara's expression.
He nodded, "But that will mean we have to be extra careful. When the Akatsuki finds out they're going to try to get to you. We have hired extra security around Suna and in it. But you also have to be on watch." He was in serious Kazekage mood, but lightened up after finishing, and despite the fact Temari and Kankouro were with them, was still kind towards her, "Also, I couldn't handle it if something happened to you..." He smiled weakly at her.
Temari and Kankouro took two deep breath before screaming loud "Awwww's".
Gaara glared, and Sakura began to laugh.
Sakura and Gaara walked out to his office not bothering to stop holiding eachother in the presence of the secretary. They both walked quietly to his office, and Sakura sat there for the majority of the day just watching him do work. They went out for lunch, but came back quickly to finish work.
At about 4:00 Gaara looked up from his desk and walked over to her, he cupped her face in his hands, and brought his face closer to hers, "Now... everyone knows that you are mine."
She smiled at him, "You like that don't you?"
He nodded and looked at her strangely then kissed her passionatly, hugging every inch of her to him, he bent his lips to her ear, "Very much."
She blushed and melted into his hold, "That's fine..." She whispered, "I like being yours."
The door burst open, and Kankouro stood there smirking, "Sorry to break up the love fest, but Gaara you have to finish these files, and I'm sure Sakura wants to get out of this office. Temari is waiting in the lobby for her. I'll stay with you until you finsh your work. Then you guys can continue anything you started here." He smirked.
Gaara glared at him, and loosend his hold on Sakura frowning as he stopped holding her.
Sakura stood up and ran her hands through his hair childeshly, "See you later Gaara-kun."
She waved goodbye and went to meet Temari down in the lobby.
"Hey Sakura!"
"Hey Temari! Where are we going?"
"I was thinking of doing some shopping then going to eat. Sound good?"
"Sounds great!" They both ran outside, and began inspecting every boutique, tourist shop and such along their way to the down town. They reached the downtown area, and the real shopping began. They both oo'ed and awww'ed at the little trinkets and evetually they stopped to a familariar noise. the grumbling of stomachs.
It neared 7:00 and they both walked into a small reastaurant.
A young waiter walked up to te lady's, "May I be of assistance?"
Temari nodded, "A table for two please."
He nodded and showed the way taking there orders, (I'm bad at coming up with food, so be creative)
They reminisced about all the others, Temari asked about everyone: Naruto, Hinata, Kakashi, Neji, Tenten, Lee, Ino, and Shikamaru. A little bit about Gai too but that conversation didn't last long because it was a tad frightening.
Neji and Tenten together didn't come as a surprise to her, but she seemed a bit peeved to know that Shikamaru was with Ino, but she let it go easily on hearing the news of Naruto and Hinata.
"They're getting engaged apparantly! Naruto told me he plans on asking soon!" Sakura squealed in excitement.
"Ohhh, they are so adorable!!!" Temari joined in on the squealing, and they both began to laugh.
It neared on 9:00 and the two girls walked out into the night air, they began to walk back to the house, when Gaara walked around the corner. He waved at Temari, and came and took Sakura's hand.
"I'll take her from here thanks. " Gaara nodded politely to Temari.
"Sure thing! See you guys later!" Temari winked at them and ran off back to the house.
Gaara smirked at Sakura and led her down a more deserted path, "I like being in quieter places with you..." His voice was slightly sinister and Sakura winced. He seemed colder to her somehow and it frightned her. She tried to seperate from him, but his hold on her was too tight.
Gaara smirked again and pulled her against him so hard it hurt, "Remeber when I told you about how the Akatsuki would find out you were here? How they would come to steal you away?"
Sakura nodded.
Smoke suddenly surround them, and cleared quickly. Sakura sighed to herself seeing that they were in the same place as before. The hold on her began almost unbearable and she tried to turn around to see him.
The minute she did, she wished she hadn't. She stared into the cold dark eyes-not Gaara's eyea, and looked down to see the dark cloak billowing around their feet. A familiar cloak, one with red clouds.'
"Guess what Sakura-Chan????" She winced at the voice.
She gritted her teeth, "What?"
"They found out."
She gasped, and her entire world went black.
Tada!!!
