A/N: DON'T EXPECT TO MANY UPDATES!!!! I am really sorry that I've failed to stick to this story. I'm lazy. There you have it. That's my excuse. I didn't lie. Besides. I'm going on a lot of vacations soon. Dad planned a New year's vacation and I might go to the Philippines to see my family. It may seem shocking to you people but… I HAVE A LIFE!!! It's a very uneventful life due to my laziness but I have one. Case closed.

Left Without Words

Suzy was normally a light sleeper and usually didn't have dreams. This was due to the fact that she became a ninja at a very young age and had to learn to be alert at all times. Not that Suzy liked it. Oh no. Suzy loved to dream… It was the only time she could have what ever she wanted. But tonight may have been the first dream she had in years. In fact it wasn't a dream. It was a dark disheartening dream.

"Where am I?"

The girl stands in darkness. At least she think she's standing…

'No really… where am I? I can't see a damned thing!!! Shit!!!'

She takes a few steps forward and sighs.

'Just a dream. Nothing to worry about.'

But for some reason she can't convince herself. Suddenly she felt herself falling.

'Wait… that's not right! I Shouldn't feel at all!!!'

Suzy landed on a soft surface but soon it turned hard and steady. She got up and peered through the darkness. There was nothing except…

"What's that?" she asked herself.

In the darkness, Suzy could make out a red blur. Her look brightened as she ran toward it only to have darkness hold her .

'Wait! Darkness can't hold you! What is this?'

She was beginning to forget she was dreaming. Suzy reached out toward the mysterious blur and soon the shadows lat her go. Soon her eyes adjusted to what it was… a small redhead boy dressed in greens and blues, sitting with his knees against his chest, crying into clenched fists.

Suzy with a playful attitude, walked over with a ball in her hands that was blue with a red stripe. Not caring how she suddenly got it neither noticing her change in height, she squatted down in front of the boy and held out the ball.

"Hey…" Suzy said in a attempt to stop his muffled wails, "Would you like to play ball with me? If you don't it's okay. I normally play with the wall anyway…"

He looked up and Suzy saw aquamarine eyes that seem very familiar, "W-w-what are y-you doing h-ere? H-how did y-you get here?"

Suzy tilted her head in confusion, "What do you mean 'How'd I get here'? Am I not allowed to be here?"

"I know you… but from where?" the boy looked the girl over then suddenly panic came across his face, "Watch out!"

Suddenly Suzy's gaze is torn from the boy as she is taken in the firm grip of a sand hand.

"No…" the boy says as he races after her.

Suddenly Suzy comes face to face with a pair of large eyes, they were yellow and the part that was suppose to be white was black.

"SHUKAKU!!!! LET HER GO!!!"

Suzy turns her head back toward the boy but he's not quite a boy anymore but the teenaged Gaara.

Suddenly Suzy was sitting up in her own bed. Strange dream, how could something like that scare her?

Suzy decides to see Gaara since he never sleeps. It wouldn't matter if she paid him a visit in the middle of the night.

Gaara stands there and stares. She's gone. Where did she go. Of course. It must have been a trick by Shukaku so he could take over more easily, but it wasn't going to work. Gaara glared at the beast but suddenly a tapping noise started breaking through his thoughts.

'What is that?' Gaara thought.

"Damn it!!! I know your not sleeping!!!" Suzy yelled as she rasped on Gaara's door.

Gaara blinked. Was this a trick too? If it wasn't, Suzy was bond to get hurt. He was fighting with Shukaku for dominance and Gaara wasn't sure he was winning.

"Damn it Gaara!" Suzy hissed.

Suddenly he was awake on the floor in a unbelievably uncomfortable position. He got up in a sitting position and looked around the room.

"Ah… Forget it," Said a voice on the other side of the door.

Gaara quickly got up and opened it. There stood Suzy who looked like she was ready to walk away. She turned back and gave him a big smile.

"Yo Gaara! I was beginning to think you weren't home," Suzy said with a smile.

He looked at he and sighed, "What do you want?"

"Well… I had a bad dream and…" what was she to say, 'I wanted comfort… Brilliant idea going to him for that…Geniuses Suzy, pure geniuses.'

"And what?" Gaara asked with much impatience.

"Well…" Suzy started, "I just figured since you're always awake I'd come and see you, and you were in my dream anyways," she looked down embarrassed.

"Oh. Well… uh…" Gaara wasn't used to this kind of situation. What was he supposed to say?

"Um… So… Can I come in?" Suzy asked slowly.

"Uh… Sure," Gaara said and she came in, walking right passed him.

She sat on the bed and looked back at him, "So…" she looked for words to say, 'Damn it Suzy!!! Why are you always creating situations for yourself?!'

Gaara came over and sat next to her, "So… um… what was your dream about?"

"Oh… Well it started out in complete darkness then I saw this boy and asked if he wanted ball with me then he got all scared. Then I was in the hands of… a demon or something…"

Gaara stared at her. That was the exact description of- No. It was just a coincidence… "You said I was in it…"

"You were. Suddenly the boy turned into you and you yelled at the demon and I woke up," Suzy said.

Gaara blinked. That would explain a lot that he should tell her all about later.

Suzy leaned her head onto Gaara's shoulder. When he didn't object, she closed her eyes and drifted to sleep. Gaara sighed. Looks like he'd have to stay there the whole night.
