(sneaks in quietly and posts)
My first ever chibi fic. I know that, technically, this kind of fic isn't allowed, but the whole cuteness of it would be ruined if I put it in a normal storyline. Hope you like it, Alana.
(wails) I can't post it on AFF!
Teh Neji Chibi lisps on his r's, not his l's. Gaara Chibi…gets jealous easily. Ought to bring up some cute scenes, ne?

Happy Families
- - - - - - - - - - -
Time: Irrelevant. Okay, maybe late afternoon.
ChibiNeji: Gaawa-chan! Lookie who I bwought to play wiv us! (looks around as if for intruders in their happy place, - -because this is their special place and what he's gonna tell Gaara is special, and only Gaara is special enough to hear it- -then looks at his stoic playmate with a grin and whips out a very fat, stuffed bunny in shades of gray) Mista' Hunnybunny!
ChibiGaara: (blank stare at the bunny with a strange name) Gaara dun play with stuffed animals.
ChibiNeji: (seemingly ignoring the lack of response…snuggles his chin onto the top of the bunny's head with his eyes closed) I love Mista' Hunnybunny lots. Coz Mista' Hunnybunny is so soft and cute…(opens one eye to look at his playmate) Kinda like Gaawa-chan.
ChibiGaara: (inwardly melts at the look and blinks…looks doubtfully at the bunny then his friend's face, then back again…bites his lip hesitantly) Gaara dun…dun play with stuffed animals…but…if Neji wants…
ChibiNeji: (he never doubted it…pounces on the redhead without actually pushing him over, both arms around his neck with the bunny held in one hand) Thankee Gaawa-chan! Now we can play the game!
ChibiGaara: (suddenly on guard…he's had some experience with Neji's games and they all end up very embarrassing for him) Wha' game?
ChibiNeji: (lets go and clasps the bunny to his chest) Happy Families!
ChibiGaara: (falls to the ground with a thump, leg twitching and veins popping)
ChibiNeji: (continues without noticing, eyes closed in happiness, one arm cradling the bunny and a finger raised to point out the important bits of his one-sided conversation) I'm Mama, and Mista' Hunnybunny is Baby. Gaawa-chan will be the Papa. We gonna do all kindsa family things, like shoppin' 'n cookin' 'n singin' 'n…um…goin' ta bed togever.
ChibiGaara: (was slowly recovering during the speech, but caught the last bit and fell over again)
ChibiNeji: still ignoring the fact that his Gaawa obviously doesn't want to play this game…starts walking around, humming) Come on, Baby Hunnybunny. We is gonna go shoppin' now, and we need lotsa stuffs if we gonna be a family.
ChibiGaara: (lies on his back for a minute, staring up at the ceiling…his thoughts going slowly but surely into place…he kind of liked being Family with Neji…but…his face sets and the determination is seen in his jutting lower lip, like a very persistent and loyal dog with one thing on his mind…walks after his playmate and trails behind him)
ChibiNeji: (is going around their playroom, picking up random toys and putting them into his pockets, talking to himself as he does so) This is juice…this is choc-mum…this is bikkits…this is milk for Baby…this is cu-wayons…this is… (searches his mind for what he always hears when the family does out to shop)…this is eggs…
ChibiGaara: (surfaces from his plot-making) Eggs not go inna pockets.
ChibiNeji: Oh. (nods at this wisdom and pulls out the colored block masquerading as his choice of market produce) Gaawa-chan hold it, 'kay?
ChibiGaara: (takes the block reverentially and thinks of an appropriate response) Gaara will hold it…Neji-koibito.
ChibiNeji: (stops for a moment, filing the nickname away in his mind…gives his 'husband' a wooden horse) Hold the jello too. (picks up a doll) this is a…a…pwe-went-a-tive.
ChibiGaara: (gets a little wrinkle on his forehead as he tries to process this bit of super cute chibiness) Wassa pwe-went-a-tive?
ChibiNeji: My bwo-bwo buys 'em sometimes…he calls 'em a…a…(frowns at the doll as he tries to remember) a ca-dum. It's wittle-itty-bitty balloons inna box, but my bwo-bwo not evew gimme one. He bad.
ChibiGaara: (nods at this bit of information) If Gaara gets ca-dums, Gaara will give Neji one, if Neji wants.
ChibiNeji: (smiles over his shoulder)
After ten minutes of relative silence, while they shuffle around their playroom, Neji now has to hold up his pajamas with one hand. They go back to the nap portion of their playroom. Gaara, incidentally, is hidden under a towering pile of toys.
ChibiGaara: (sweatdrops, his tiny arms straining from the weight Is we there yet?
ChibiNeji: (nods and sits down with an audible rattle( Yup, we is home. You put the stuffs down now. (is finding it very troublesome to take out all of the things stuffed in his pockets, so he takes his pajamas off instead. Problem solved. His nightshirt takes care of the problem of decency, hanging well to his thighs (
ChibiGaara: (ignores the mini-strip show- -no pun intended- -…dropped the stuff in a pile and is now sorting them out…is now actually dedicated to being a good papa, whatever that means. Neji won't find any problem with himWe got lotsa beanbags.
ChibiNeji: Them's bikkits, Gaawa-chan. (crawls up on his hands and knees behind his playmate and puts his chin on the redhead's shoulder) What we do now?
ChibiGaara: (still in his best-papa-in-the-whole-world mode) Gaara cook, Neji gonna take care of Baby. Maybe take nap.
ChibiNeji: (nods and yawns on cue, rubbing his cheek against his playmate's neck) Nap good. (thinks a minute then presses his lips to his partner's tanned cheek)
ChibiGaara: (blinks and turns to his friend) Why Neji chu Gaara?
ChibiNeji: That's what Mamas do to Papas because they luv them. (nods sagely and kisses his partner's cheek again before crawling off and flopping on the pile of pillows that serve as their bed, cuddling Baby…the last thing he sees before he closes his eyes is Gaara sorting the beanbags by color)
ChibiGaara: (fiddles around with things as he waits…divides everything by color…green…blue…purple…red…stares at the red beanbag that Neji had one of his sisters make to look like a very pissed off version of his Gaawa-chan, then at the still form on the pillows…and the bunny…walks up and kneels beside Neji…carefully, very, very carefully, he raises the small arm and eases out the stuffed animal, putting the beanbag under the softly rounded chin instead…looks around, then puts the bunny under a pillow and strokes the fine black hair, not noticing the fact that he's left a long fluffy ear out for all and sundry to see)
ChibiNeji: (shifts in his sleep and mumbles softly) Mmm…Gaawa-chan…
ChibiGaara: Gaara is here. (lowers his face until it's just inches for the shell-like ear…whispers protectively) Gaara always gonna be here, so it okay…
ChibiNeji: (talking in a person's ear, however softly, will wake them up, especially when you're saying something you don't want them to hear….blinks and looks up into deeps pools of green…smiles and raises his head a little to rub his nose against his partner's) Hi Gaawa-chan…
ChibiGaara: (pulls away, a slight blush on his cheeks…tears away from the opal gaze and looks at the miniature beanbag mounds) You only sleepded for five minutes.
ChibiNeji: it was a vewy westful five minutes. (smiles) that what my mama always says. (suddenly realizes the loss of bunny-ness in his arms and looks down at the small Pissed!Gaara-chan beanbag) Thif not my Mista' Hunnybunny…(bestows a soft kiss on it all the same then looks at the redhead expectantly) Whew my Mista' Hunnybunny?
ChibiGaara: (sets his face in grim determination to see this out and make his partner see it his way) He not here. No more Mista' Hunnybunny.
ChibiNeji: (patiently looks at him) Why?
ChibiGaara: He growed up and he big now. No more need Mama and Papa. (mentally pats himself on the back for thinking of this)
ChibiNeji: (as patient as ever) So we not have Baby?
ChibiGaara: (as cheerful as he can get without smiling) Nope, no more.
ChibiNeji: (points at the floppy ear lying conspicuously on the ground) What that then?
ChibiGaara: (looks behind him and eeps…thinking quickly, he flops himself down over the ear) Nothing!
ChibiNeji: (crawls over his friend's body…and suddenly he doesn't look so chibi, but more like a hungry sexual predator) Gaawa-chan bein' a bad boy, hidin' things fwom his Neji-chan.
ChibiGaara: (eeping in his mind) Gaara not bad boy…nothing here…
ChibiNeji: (pulls the pillow away, uncovering his prized bunny and looks triumphantly at the redhead, who, with a sour look, rolls over so Neji can get his bunny…gives Gaara another expectant look while cradling both bunny and beanbag in his arms…speaks in a Mama tone) Gaawa-chan, asplain wyt now.
ChibiGaara: (sitting in a sort of defeated lump, looking away from his 'wife') Gaara not like Mista' Hunnybunny.
ChibiNeji: (persistently) Why?
ChibiGaara: (his voice is now mumbling, like that of people very embarrassed to being admitting something) Gaara wanted to play with just Neji today, not with stuffed animal. Gaara want…Gaara want only Neji. (softer mumble) But Neji only want play with Mista' Hunnybunny, not with Gaara…
ChibiNeji: (blink…blink…blinkblinkblink…thoughts: so cute!…puts his bunny down, arranging the beanbag in the fluffy arms before crawling over to the redheaded lump and pushing the longish hair back to kiss his temple…smiles sweetly at the teary eyes and kisses his forehead)
ChibiGaara: (sniffling…mumbles in a small voice) Chu?
ChibiNeji: (nods…pushes himself into his playmate's arms as the redhead unfolds and gently licks at the tear trails like the kitten he is) The Mama can't let the Papa cwy, wyt?
ChibiGaara: (puts his arms around the tiny waist as he falls back against the pillows, carrying his armful of Neji with him) Gaara sorry he hidded your bunny. Not gonna do it again, promise.
ChibiNeji: (shakes his head) Want difwent pwomise fwom Gaawa-chan. Want…when we is bigger…we play Families again, 'n I be Gaawa-chan's wife for real. That gonna be a long time fwom now…you still gonna want Neji only?
ChibiGaara: (nods fervently while playing with the long strands of ebony) Gaara always gonna want Neji, always, always. (holds out his pinky) Pinky promise.
ChibiNeji: (shakes his head( Not pinky pwomise. Difwent. (gives the redhead a quick peck on the lips)
ChibiGaara: (blinks, surprised) You gave Gaara a different chu?
ChibiNeji: (nods and tilts his face up) Now you hafta kiss me too, and that means you is pwomising me.
ChibiGaara: (blinks and slowly lowers his lips to the slightly parted ones( Gaara promises, he will marry Neji. (kisses clumsily but sweetly, his hold firm on the long hair)
ChibiNeji: (rubs his partner's flawless skin with his knuckles after they part…smiles in his cutest way) Gaawa-chan is now Gaawa-koibito, and I'm Neji-koibito, like you said while we was shoppin'.
ChibiGaara: (agrees, nodding fiercely) Gaara your koibito.
ChibiNeji: (happy smile while snuggling deeper into his 'lover's' embrace) Na, Gaawa-chan, we still playin' Families.
ChibiGaara: (now that the excitement is over and he's all contented with his own Hunnybunny in his arms, he feels sleepy) We is?
ChibiNeji: Mhmm… we is officially Sleepin' Together.
