I re-edited this to the best of my abilities.

Enjoy.

Kankuro drove at a normal speed down the crowded streets of Tokyo with cautious eyes, not at the pedestrians but at the passenger in the back. The car windows were all rolled up and the doors were tightly locked. The AC was on at a very, very cold temperature, which he did not like. But if he didn't want to be accounted for the death of his little sister then he'd have to man up. He nervously tapped the steering wheel with his trembling fingers and glanced up in the rear view mirror to look back. Instantly, he felt a shiver pang of fear when he saw a pair of grey eyes stare right back at him. Quickly he averted his eyes and concentrated on the road.

"I'm not going to kill you."

"I-I know that, I'm just being precautious."

"For what reason?"

"You tried to jump out of my car three times already; I'm still a little shook up after that accident you caused."

"The driver didn't hit me, unfortunately. So I don't see your need to be afraid."

"I don't understand why you want to kill youself, you're going home now. Away from the 'bad' hospital as you put it, shouldn't that make you feel a little better?"

"Nothing will ever make me feel better until the seeping pusses of this world are all eliminated. The hypocrite politicians and prostitutes that run this filthy city will always be there to ruin my life. They stink up this place with sex and lies, and you're telling to feel better?"

"Alright, alright, continue being angry at the world. You know, some people surprisingly, still manage to be happy. I know that may come as a surprise to someone who hasn't smiled since the day they were born. But people do learn to put up with things like that and move on with their lives."

"In there lies the problem, what is the point of living if all you do is let the evil man has created walk all over?"

"What's the point in not living?"

"An escape to your own paradise."

"I really need to get you into the sun sometimes."

"And burn my skin off? You are a sick person."

Kankuro leaned into the mirror, "I'm going to teach you how to act like a normal human being when we get home."

"If your definition of normal is getting drunk, having sex, and finding a job; then you'd have a better chance at teaching a pig. If you people won't let me die, then at least let me live my own life."

"Can't wait to see how this turns out."

"Maybe I'll end up being governor of Tokyo; I'd clean this place up and get rid of all the dirty vermin."

Kankuro shook his head, "If demons could dream, they'd have nightmares about you."

"I know."

Sakura checked the temperature of her patient and opened up the windows, the smell of wet earth splashed into her face. It was refreshing and calming. After spending another whole sat at the studio, she wanted a break and start being a nurse again. She walked over to the patient and took out the thermometer. As she took out a need and injection another came in and dropped off a note.

"Give me once second Yoko,"

She opened the note and read;

Sakura, I want you to report to this address: 632 Suna Boulevard in the Private Saisei Neighborhood I'm assigning you to house call duty for a daily check up on Kyami Sabaku. Please report there after your afternoon shift is over. Bring her medication and monthly injections -Tsunade

Sakura's re-read the note over again, realizing whose house she had to pay a visit too. Her eyes were popping out of their sockets. She had never been to Gaara's house before, he never said anything and she never asked. Now, she had to be daily visits. Her heart was racing, but calmed herself down, trying to be professional about this. Hopefully Gaara wouldn't think she was stalking him, she wondered how this would affect their work at the studio. She tucked away the note and picked up the needle again, "Alright now let's see that arm."

"Where's Mr. Giggles?" Kyami asked as they pulled into the driveway.

"We moved him."

"What, why?"

"Because he's like a sponge soaking water! If I knew pythons grew that fast I would have never bought it for you."

Kankuro parked the car in the garage as Kyami jumped out and started looking for her snake, "Where did you put him?"

"He's over here," He took her outside into their greenhouse, past a bunch of wild plants, "See how big he got? And I only feed him once."

She carefully took the top of the cage off and gently picked up the snake, giving him a peck on the head, "I'm sorry I left you here with these people, I'll never leave you again."

"Gaara's home, why don't you go say 'hi' to her?"

"Fine," She wrapped the snake around her body and went into the house.

"Wait, I don't think you should bring him inside, you know how he is with snakes."

"We know." A slight smile flickered across her lips.

Gaara was lying in his bed with his eyes closed, dreaming again about Sakura. She was sleeping on his chest as he gently stroked her soft hair. They were at peace, something he wanted in real life. He looked down at her and relished her natural beauty, feeling her soft skin. He would do anything for a moment like this, to just relax with her in his arms and forget about the hassles of daily life. Her eyes fluttered open and she smiled up at him, her lips opened to say something but nothing came out. He tried to listen closer but instead of hearing her voice, hissing came out. Her skin started to feel slightly wet and smooth like plastic, and her eyes were fading from green to yellow.

Suddenly the hissing became louder and something started crawling down his chest. Gaara could feel light flickering every now and then on his bear skin, it was making him squirm. He opened his eyes and to his utter horror a snake was slithering down his chest and onto his legs. As he tried shoving it off, he noticed Kyami crouching barefoot on his drawer with the rest of the snake wrapped around him. She merely waved at him.

"Kyami, what the hell are you doing?"

"Kankuro said I should say hi," She pulled her snake back, "It seems Sakura isn't the only one who loves you."

He got out of bed and backed away from the snake, "When did you get back?"

"I miss you too," She rolled her eyes, "Just now, didn't expect be back so soon?"

"Why did they release you so early?"

"For good behavior, now I'm just under house arrest. They're sending a nurse for daily house checkups. The doctors came up with this idea since I refused to go to an institute."

"Glad you're back,"

"Missed your sarcasm."

"Why don't you go see Temari and leave me at peace?"

"Are you that desperate to get rid of me? And I thought we'd be one big happy family again." She teased him with the snake a little before leaving.

He checked his clock, it was the afternoon. There was no point in going back to bed; his day was going to be constantly filled with noise starting now. With Kyami back, he was going even busier suicide proofing the house and hiring someone to watch over her. It was too much hassle, but he would rather be doing something rather than sitting around doing nothing. There was a loud crash in the hall way.

"What was that?" He called out.

"Who put this ugly painting next to my room?"

He popped his head outside his door, "It's a picture of you."

"Yeah, so why put it here? I know what my face looks like." She kicked open her door and slammed it shut.

Gaara gritted his teeth and went back inside.

After Sakura was done with her last patient at the hospital, she left the building and called a friend.

"Hello?"

"Temari?"

"This is she,"

"Hey it's Sakura."

"What's up?"

"I was wondering what you are doing at the moment,"

"Nothing much, just picking up some groceries."

"Do you need a ride home?"

She laughed, "No thanks, I live, like, only a block away."

"I don't know how to get to your house, and I need to you help me."

"Why?"

"Because I'm Kyami's house nurse."
