Heya, not long winded apologies for missing a day, only the fact my dad is still in Hong Kong and I'm getting pretty fucked off with it now. Not in the best of moods, as the guy I like, despite the sign i saw, said to my friend that he 'didn't like anyone' at the moment. Yeah, bad day, but good news my mate is okay after an op.

Lil bit of clarification on this one. In the first bit, italics mean what Hiashi is saying in Kage speak, and bold is what Gaara is saying in Kage speak. Oh, and I liked the names=insults thing.

Peace out.

~x~

Neji had a death grip on the fork he held, watching the two men talk. Dure, they sounded pleasant, but when you spend almost all your life around big families, you develop a second tongue that Neji liked to call 'Kage Tongue'. "So, Gaara, it must be quite stressful running Suna."

'So, wankstain, do you have any time for my nephew?'

"Of course Hiashi, as I'm sure running a large clan has been, and still is."

'Like hell you ever gave him the time asshole.' Neji could see the look on his uncles face at being responded to in Kage Tongue. Neji had never dated politicians before.

"I must say, I was surprised on finding out that you and Neji were a couple."

'I don't like you two together.'

"Why is that Hiashi?"

'Give me a reason why we shouldn't be dickhead.'

"You two are not the most likely of couples are you?"

'I want grandkids damn it! Quit making him gay!'

"Well we are happy. Provided the feelings between us a mutual." Neji reached out, grabbing Gaara's hand encouragingly. "I don't see the problem with likeliness."

'He's gay. Live with it. And I'm not letting go any time soon.'

"I never said there was a problem. I was merely saying some people may find this unsavoury."

'There is a HUGE problem. Just let him give me a goddamn grandchild!'

"If I am honest Hiashi, I have never been one to care for what others think."

'If I'm honest fuckface, I don't give a shit what you think. Neji is mine.'

"Does Neji feel the same?"

'Bet he doesn't…please say he doesn't.'

"Ask him."

'He's not leaving any time soon either, ask him.'

"Neji?"

'Agree with me or die.'

"I personally agree with Gaara. It doesn't matter what others think."

"You see."

'Eat that!'

"Hn."

'Oh fucking hell.'

At great length Hiashi went back to Konoha. Neji was so relieved that he pulled Gaara straight into the bedroom to make good on the 24 hour romp promise from before he left. Neji was currently involved in one of the most boring meetings he had ever been in. How the hell Gaara put up with his every fucking day he would never know. The elders were whining at the gorgeous redhead about children. They wanted him to make heirs, but Gaara was quite clearly stating he wasn't in a position to have any right then.

Neji smirked as he spoke, knowing the old fools didn't know about their relationship yet. He began wondering why Gaara didn't just tell them he was gay. It would make life a lot easier on them both. Unless…no. No he was just being paranoid. For a second there he had been worried Gaara was ashamed. He quite clearly wasn't, as he didn't care about Neji kissing him in public. He watched the redhead dismiss the elders easily, a smirk creasing his porcelain skin. Neji frowned. Gaara looked at him with a small smile, but his face fell when he saw the frown. "What's wrong?" Neji considered how to answer. He could tell him, but would he like the answer?

"Why did you not tell them?"

"Tell them what?" Gaara looked so innocently confused as he stood there that, had Neji not been worried, he would have dove on him and taken the redhead right there in his office.

"About us." Neji stood, easily topping Gaara in height. Gaara frowned slightly, retaining his angelic look of bewilderment. "Why did you not tell them?"

"I thought they would cause more trouble at the prospect of me never reproducing rather than the promise of me maybe reproducing." He still looked so angelically confused Neji couldn't help but soften. "Why?"

"No reason." Neji sighed, sliding his hands under his arms to rest on his hips. Gaara let his hands drift up to Neji's shoulders, tilting his head. He looked like a puppy. "Are you ready to go?" He asked, voice growing husky at the mere thought of home. Sure, they had been together for nearly six months now, but none of the passion had been lost. Gaara flushed adorably, and Neji smirked.

"Yes." He mumbled, leaning forwards. The note of unhappiness in his voice made Neji frown again.

"What?" He asked, moving his hands up and down his sides.

"Nothing." Gaara sighed. "We should go." He tried to walk off, but Neji gently pulled him back.

"Tell me." He said softly, resting his chin on the top of Gaara's head. Gaara tucked his head neatly under, resting his cheek against Neji's chest.

"You're leaving soon." Neji stiffened. He had almost forgotten about that.

"Oh." Neji scooped the redhead up without warning, making him gasp in surprise.

"Neji! What are you doing?!" He yelped as Neji began carrying him out.

"Making sure I give you enough to think about before I leave."
