Chapter 10: Kids and Fund Raisers!
Time went on and Gaara and Sakura were still going strong. Of course having fights about Gaara being to oblivious and Sakura being to stubborn still happened, but they loved each other no less than before. Sakura had a baby girl and named her Akira. Gaara had hoped for a baby boy first, but was surprised when Sakura had Akira. She looked like a miniature girl version of Gaara. She had short red hair that she let fall over her right eye. From the day she started walking Gaara had began to train her, teaching her many new jutsus. They were both surprised to see that Akira had gained the ability to control sand just like her father. It appeared that controlling sand was becoming a new bloodline limit. When Akira turned five she was presented with two gifts, a gourd just like the one her father had just smaller and a baby brother who would be named Taku.
Ten years have passed since that day, Akira was now fifteen while Taku was ten. She was Jounin already, and Taku was a genin soon to be taking the test to become a Chuunin. They were both in their respective rooms when their mother called them from the kitchen.
"Kids come down here, your father and I need to talk with you." Sakura called. Taku ran down the stairs and was first to get their, everyone new he was mommas boy as for Akira she took her time to leave her room and get to the kitchen, she was daddy's little angel.
"Yes mom?" Taku said from the doorway with Akira behind him leaning against the wall.
"Your father and I are going out to a fund raiser tonight to raise money for the village, so that means you two are going to be alone tonight, Kiki you're in charge. Dinner is almost done so as soon as i serve you two your father and i will be off for the night." Sakura said while stirring the pot.
"But mom you said you would train with me after dinner." Taku yelled from the hallway.
"Come on Taku you should learn to grow up your already ten. You should be used to mom just leaving us and breaking promises its not like its anything new." Akira said while walking away.
"Akira, please respect your mother." Gaara said without even looking up from his paper.
"Yeah whatever." She said as she continued to walk about to her room.
"I know I'm sorry Taku, but we didn't know about the fund raiser until after i had that promise. Maybe if you ask Kiki nicely she will train with you." Sakura said while serving the plates and setting them down on the table.
"Kiki come down and eat." Sakura yelled from the kitchen to Akira's room.
"Not hungry." Akira yelled back making Sakura sigh and look at Gaara. She never listened to her, only her father.
"Akira please come down and eat and wish you mother and I goodbye." Gaara yelled from the table.
"Ill eat later, bye dad." She yelled back in a nicer tone than before. Sakura just sighed again she couldn't figure out why her daughter didn't like her.
"Taku, sweetie could you make sure Kiki eats something tonight." Sakura said while giving him a kiss on the forehead.
"Hai." Taku said while eating the food his mother made. After that Sakura and Gaara left for the fund raiser. Seeing their parents gone Taku ran up to Akira's room.
"Hey Kiki will train with me." Taku asked while Akira was laying on her bed reading a book.
"Go away brat, i didn't have anyone to train with so don't think your going to get special treatment from me." Akira said in a cold voice.
"Not true dad always helped you with the sand." Taku whined from the doorway.
"Fine go ask dad when he gets home not me." Akira said not even looking at him.
"But Kiki i wanna train now. Please." Taku said continuing to whine. Akira was getting tired of this so she took a kunai from her side pouch and threw it at him which he barely managed to dodge.
"Hey mom says your not aloud to do that. I'm going to tell her when she gets home." Taku yelled
"You cant tell her if you cant talk." Akira said while getting up from her bed and moving towards him. This scared the little red head and he ran out of the room back to his own. Akira just slammed the door shut and locked it.
With Sakura and Gaara.
Sakura and Gaara were walking down the road towards the building where the auction where a bunch of villagers would buy different ninja to help them with odd tasks for a day.
"You seem awful quiet tonight Sakura, something on your mind." Gaara asked
"Its just Akira seems to hate me, while she loves you so much. I can't figure out why i don't think Ive done anything to make her mad." Sakura said starting to tear up.
"Well if you think about it Taku clings to you like theres no tomorrow, while half of the time hes afraid of his own father. He would rather train with you than me even though i would be able to help him control his sand better. When Taku was born, All the attention that Akira used to get was now cut in half and she had to share it with Taku. While you fed and changed Taku, i trained with Akira. She probably resents you for giving some of your attention to Taku rather than all to her" Gaara explained to her.
"Yeah i guess your right." Sakura said while jumping in front of him and giving him a kiss. "You know that why i love you, you always make me feel better."
"Sakura-chan your here! Good now we can get started!" Naruto who was now Hokage said. "Come on Sakura all of the other kunoichi are now on the platform were waiting for you."
"I'm coming." Sakura said while running onto the stage and seeing some of her friends. "Hey Tenten,Hinata,Ino. How are you guys doing." They were about to respond when Naruto interrupted them with a speech.
"Thank you all for coming. We decided that since we need some funds for the village for different repairs and other stuff that we were going to auction off some of out best nin for a day to help you with any task that you made need them to do. Up First we have a special lady, especially to me. My wife and mother of my child, Hinata." Naruto said as Hinata stepped forward. The bidding started mostly men bidding to get Hinata to themselves for a day. Finally it was over when an old man that would need help with some gardening made the highest bid for Hinata. This continued with all the girls till it was finally Sakura's turn.
"This is also a woman close to my heart, one of the best kunoichi you will ever find, and also one of my closets friends, Sakura. Let the bidding start."
This time there were a lot more bids going on, Sakura had easily brought in the most money. She was finally auctioned off to a Fifty year old man who claimed he needed someone to take care of his son. After the auction was over Sakura went over to the guy who had won her.
"Hello I'm Sakura, you had the highest bid on me for babysitting? When did you want me to come over?" Sakura asked
"Yeah and my names Miko. I have a three year old boy named Kami and he can be a handful sometimes, so i need you to watch him tomorrow for the whole day, i will be out most of the day, and i cant trust that boy alone at the house." Miko replied
"Ok i think i can handles that. I have a five year old daughter myself, so i think i can handle another little boy." Sakura said. Gaara then came up behind her. "oh Gaara this is miko, ill be babysitting for him tomorrow. Miko this is Gaara, my husband." Sakura said with a smile.
"Come on Sakura its getting late we need to get back and make sure the kids are in bed." Gaara said while dragging her away.
"Ok i will be over tomorrow!" Sakura called over her shoulder and followed Gaara back to the house.
When they reached the house they realized that Taku's light was off meaning he was probably asleep, but it looked like Akira was still awake.
"I'm real tired can you make sure Akira gets to bed?" Sakura said as they entered the house.
"Yeah sure ill come to bed after i make sure shes in bed sleeping." Gaara said while kissing her on the forehead. Sakura and Gaara went separate ways, and as he Gaara started to come closer to Akira's room he heard giggles coming from inside her room. He figured that she had one of her friends over, but when he opened the door he was surprised to see a guy he had never seen before kissing Akira's neck.
"Dad what are you doing home." Akira yelled while pushing the boy off of her.
"What is he doing here?" Gaara yelled
"Look dad calm down we weren't doing anything." Akira said trying to convince her dad.
"Whats going on." Sakura said from the hallway, she came to check and make sure everything was ok when she heard yelling.
"Your daughter had a boy over and he was kissing her in inappropriate places while we were gone." Gaara yelled the sand starting to swirl around them violently. Akira seeing the sand begin to swirl knew this was getting bad, her boyfriend would most likely get hurt if she didn't calm the sand or her father down soon.
"Dad calm down will you your making the sand get violent." Akira yelled from her bed.
"Oh believe me this isn't violent ill show you violent." Gaara yelled and made the sand start going at a fast rate towards Akira's boyfriend. Sakura saw what was going on and immediately got in front of Gaara's attack. When both Akira and Gaara saw what Sakura did they both tried to stop the sand, but it was coming to fast. She still got some damage done to her some cuts and bruises, but it wasn't anything bad.
"Leave." was all that Sakura said to the boy, who quickly complied and ran from the room and then from the house.
"What the hell were you thinking, you cant send your sand at the boy because he was kissing our little girl. You could seriously hurt him or worse Akira." Sakura yelled with her hands on her hips while looking at Gaara.
"Sakura I." Gaara for once was speechless, he hadn't meant for Sakura to get hurt, or even the boy for that matter, but he was still Gaara and he still had his temper.
"Mom I'm so sorry, i shouldn't have let him come over." Akira said while hugging her mom and crying. Sakura just ran her fingers threw her daughters hair, and told her everything was fine. Gaara took this as a cue to leave. The girls stayed up for a couple more hours just talking about girl things, eventually Akira fell asleep and Sakura left for her own room. When she got there she found Gaara pacing across the room. Sakura was still slightly mad at him for over reacting, but wasn't mad enough to yell at him again.
"I thought you would have gone to sleep by now." Sakura said making him turn around and face her.
"Sakura you know i didn't mean to hurt you or Akira or that boy, i don't know what happened." Gaara said trying his best to apologize.
"Dont worry about it its all over with now, and i don't think that boy will be coming over anymore. I talked to Kiki about him. Apparently hes also a Jounin and hes from get this the sand village." Sakura said and laughed at his expression.
"From Suna?"
"Yepp hes here to help watch the genin that our taking the Chuunin exams. She told me that they met a while ago and have been writing letters to each other for about a year now."
"Interesting, does he know that shes the daughter of the old Kazekage?" Gaara said with a familiar smirk.
"I don't think he did but I'm sure he does now." Sakura said laughing. The couple continued talking about their daughter growing up and thought about tomorrow and having to babysit for the old man.
