I have nothing to say for taking so long to update.


Neji frowned at his cousin as she started giggling. Walking towards the edge he grabbed what little clothes he had and threw them on.

"Hinata." Neji called. Causing her to look at him with smiling eyes. "Im going."

Hinata smiled and nodded.

Standing up she left, heading towards the cooking house. Neji on the other hand turned and headed for the house. He wasn't sure what he was going to say to Gaara, but he was pretty sure that the man wanted an apology. Walking up the steps he opened the front door.

Neji stepped into the living room and looked around. "Gaara." He called.

"He's not here." A voice called out.

Neji looked around only to see the girl with the twin buns from before, walking in from the kitchen. He frowned at her and narrowed his eyes, turning on his heels he headed up the stairs. Neji opened the door to Gaara's bedroom and walked into the bathroom. Spotting the steaming bubble filled water he smiled to himself.

Gaara likes bubbles.

Neji took off the skirt given to him and stepped into the water. Sighing softly he leaned across the edge allowing the water to cover every inch of his body, leaving his neck and head free. Neji allowed the water to carry him to dream land as he waited for Gaara to return.

Gaara POV

I am such an idiot. Now I can't even find the damn boy. I walked to the cooking house to ask the two opening the door every one bowed before turning back to their tasks.

"Where's Hinata?" I asked one of my workers.

She pointed in the direction of the oven, "Over there sir."

"Thanks." I said walking towards the oven.

Seeing the girl I tapped her on the shoulder.

"Yes?" she said a hint of smile on her face.

"Where's your brother?" I asked her frowning.

"He left for the house to talk with you." She said.

I nodded before walking away. Leaving the cookinghouse I headed for the house. I walked up the stairs and opened the door.

Now to be honest I'm not sure what I'm going to say to Neji. I know well enough that I shouldn't have hit him. Yet I knew it was necessary to help him trust me. I get the feeling he's spoil but that has nothing to do with it. Knowing Neji the boy wants an apology.

"Ten-Ten?" I called.

"Yes sir?" she replied rushing from the kitchen.

"Did Neji come back here?" I asked.

"Yes he did, he ran up the stairs to your room." She said lifting her eyebrows.

"Good. Have you started dinner?" I asked pulling off my shoes.

"Yes sir."

"When your done have someone bring it upstairs." I told her at the foot of the stairs.

"Yes sir." She replied bowing and walking off.

I headed up the stairs and walked down the hall to my room. Opening the door I looked around frowning when I saw no one. I was about to call Ten-Ten when I heard water splashing. Walking to the bathroom I pushed the door open to see Neji napping in the bathwater.

Kneeling at the tub I tapped Neji on the shoulder.

Normal POV

"Hmm." Neji murmured as his eyes fluttered open.

"Hey." Gaara said helping him sit up.

"Hey." Neji replied rubbing his eyes.

The moment was little awkward as they sat in silence, that is until Gaara broke it.

"May I join you?" Gaara asked even though it was his bathwater.

"Yeah." Neji said shrugging his shoulders.

Neji blushed as Gaara stripped in front of him removing his shirt and pants. When he got to his boxers Neji turned away as the blushed darkened.

"You've already seen me naked." Gaara said catching the blush on Neji's face.

Neji looked up as Gaara stepped into the hot water and scooted forward so Gaara could sit behind him.

"I'm sorry." Neji mumbled.

"What?" Gaara asked. Reaching forward he pulled Neji back towards him so that he was leaning against him.

"I said I was sorry." Neji repeated.

"Don't be. Im the one that hit you." Gaara said tightening his hold on Neji, he really was sorry.

"That's only because I said all those stupid things to you." Neji replied, turning slightly to looked at Gaara.

"That means we're both sorry." Gaara whispered against his lips looking Neji in the eye.

"You know, my cousins say they like it here." Neji whispered.

"Hmm. That's good. Do you?" Gaara asked.

"I guess so." Neji smiled.

"Good. Now do you like me?"

"I, well yeah, you're okay." Neji said smiling.

Gaar smirked at this, pulled Neji closer and kissed. Neji's eyes widened before he closed them and opened his mouth to allow Gaara entrance. Gaara snaked his tongue into Neji's mouth and explored. Neji allowed himself to melt into Gaara's arms.

Even though the water had gone cold he felt warm in Gaara's embrace. Suddenly that moment was interrupted when the servant came in.

"Sir dinner is ready." she called.

Neji jumped slightly causing Gaara to stop.

"We should get out." Neji said standing.

Gaara followed suit and headed into the bedroom. Walking over to the drawers Gaara pulled out a dress and a set of black silk pajamas. Giving the dress to Neji, Gaara began getting dress.

"I am really getting tired of these dresses." Neji stated holding up the black satin dress.

Gaara looked his way and smirked. Shrugging his shoulders Gaara helped Neji put the dress on. Neji gave Gaara a hard look before sitting on the bed near the tray of food.

"Smells good." Neji commented.

"Mhmm." Gaara responded. He removed the lid revealing one plate.

Neji stared at the plate.

Not Again.
