Good song Cellar Door – Escape the Fate, though, all their stuff is good.

Kankurou continued to twirl my hair for a moment before stopping abruptly, realising what he was doing and letting my rosé hair fall limp. After a long stretch of silence, in which Gaara had seemed to blank out in, the phone rang and Kankurou dashed away to get it. The phone seems to have brought Gaara back to the present as well as he jolted before looking at me.
I raise an eyebrow at him and he just shrugs and pulls at my wrist encouragingly. I follow him into a corner of the house furthest away from the front door. He leads my into a room next to the last room.
"My rooms right next door, so if you need anything just, yeah…" He finishes in an uneasy way, as though he was unsure how to end his proposal. I drop my bag on the ground heavily and start to turn back to him before stopping.
"Hmm, I left my bag at Itachi's house…" I say in realisation. He looks at my bag pointedly and I answer his unvoiced question, "My other bag,"
"Do you want to go get it?" he asks uncertainly.
"He lives on the other side of town," Gaara merely shrugs.
"That's over an hour away?" Okay, lie, but almost an hour…
He pauses before plastering a bored, almost irritated, look over his face. I sigh slightly.
"Fine," I huff in utter defeat. He smirks a little before gesturing towards the front door with a nod of his head. We walk down the edge of the road and around a corner towards Itachi's house. Halfway down the street a trio of people stand boredly, blocking the path. Gaara envelops his hand with mine and we continue walking. On reaching them we try to keep walking by but Zaku steps in front of us, his arms crossed over his chest, smirking. He's a little bit taller then Gaara and a fair bit taller then me.
"You're that little prick from the other day, aren't you?"
"And his little emo skank girlfriend, tsk, tsk why aren't you at school?" came Kin's sneering voice from the fence she was sitting on next to Dosu. Gaara snarls under his breath before tightening his grip around my hand. Gaara takes a step forward and Zaku takes a step back in imitation. He grins widely and stretches his arms out warmly.
"Group hug!" He cries randomly and before we can protest his arms wrap around us in a backbreaking hug. Quite literally. His large arms envelope us tightly and it feels as though my chest has caved in. My breathing quickens as I try to keep myself alive, at the least. It appears to be the same for Gaara but he holds his breath. I manage to wriggle myself into an (awkward) position. I kick my foot between his legs and push myself back away from him, almost falling over in the process.
"Little bitch," he sneers under his breath. He lunges forward and strikes me hard against my cheek before doubling over in pain. I glance over at Gaara who is breathing heavily and glaring at Kin and Dosu, who sit emotionless on the fence.
"Let's go," he mumbles finally, holding out his hand to me. I take the redheads hand and we continue down the path until we reach a little playground. He tells me to sit down on the swing and I comply, he kneels to be at my level and looks at the red mark on my cheek. His fingertips trail over it and I wince slightly at the contact. A slight gust of wind pushes the swing towards him a fraction, pushing his fingers onto my skin more harshly. I jerk my head away from him quickly and he retracts his fingertips from near my face.
"Sorry," he murmurs.
"Can we go now?" I ask softly. He nods slowly before standing up. We walk along the path together, not touching except for the occasional brush of the hand due to close proximity.
After several minutes of strolling towards Itachi's place I suddenly think of something...
Ever had someone say something to you and not know what to reply with until hours, even days later? I just got that.
"I'm sick of it too," I mumble. He looks sideways at me, then back at the path before returning his gaze to me.
"Please, don't leave me…" he says uncertainly. I smile meekly.
"Not yet," I smile, he returns it apprehensively and a long stretch of silence follows till we reach Itachi's house.
I stop dead in my tracks and shudder slightly. Loud music erupted from the house. It wasn't the music that was bad, in fact the music was very good. Orange Range music belted out from inside the house.
"Hmm?" Gaara drones as if asking what was wrong.
"We should come back later,"
"Why?"
"Guess," I murmur after hearing a loud squeel from inside.
"Oh?" he asks curiously.
"Stop it!! Bakaa!" cried Haku from inside, barely audible over the song transition.
"…Ohhhh," Says Gaara in realisation, his eyes wider then usual. I nod slowly.
"Hn, come on, just knock," he says in frustration.
"Noooo… you knock," I back away from the door slowly.
He sighs heavily before opening the door, not bothering to knock. My eyes widen now.
"Wait, what do you think you're doing??"
"Getting your bag," he said as if it justified everything.
"You know what they're doing don't you?"
"Can't be worse than what I've seen my brother do," he shudders involuntarily before going inside. He reappeared a minute later with my bag. He squeezes his eyes shut. "It was worse than what my brother does." He states.
