Chapter 12

There is no 12 for you all. Thanks for the Reviews everyone I just love the wacky ones they are really fun to read +. This is a Christmas special I just hope its finished before Christmas.

The stars shone brightly in the nights sky as Gaara lay on the Mansions roof, looking at the lights from heaven. Gaara's green eyes settled on the brightest star knows as the north star. No matter how Gaara changed or how bad everything in his life got, the stars would never change. They would shine bright in the black space that surrounded it. They never stopped shining like Sakura's smile. Gaara groaned closing his eyes. Sakura's face flashed in his head. "She's always on my mind no matter what I do. When I see her smile I just want to smile back in return" Gaara whispered to himself.

The loud ring tone of Gaara's cell phone sounded, snapping him out of his day dream. "What do you want" Gaara answered not even caring to look at the callers ID.

"Wow for someone you age, your always in a bad mood. Now tell me Gaara who stuck that Ice sickle up your ass?" Gaara groaned as Deidara's voice mocked.

"For fuck sakes, just give me that damn phone" Itachi's smooth voice cut in.

"Im not done talking, yeah" Deidara whined

"Like I care" Came Itachi's voice.

"Mind telling me why you are calling me in the middle of the night?" Gaara asked closing his eyes.

"Like you ever sleep" Itachi said " I just called to say that we met that blond girl you were talking about. You know the one always hanging on Sasuke"

"Huh? You met her. Please tell me you run over her with the car" Gaara scratched his head.

"No the bitch is very much alive, I bet you Sasuke and her were…….Hey!" Deidara screamed

"Stop stealing the damned phone!" Sasori yelled in the background.

"That bitch called me a stupid girl!" Deidara yelled

"Deidara hates her" Itachi said "Anyway like I was saying before a very irritating blond took the cell phone. We met her when I came home. She and Sasuke probably had sex or something." He added

"Your lucky Sakura did not go back with you guys" Gaara said

"Sasori would probably choke her to death instead of grabbing her by the throat"

"Holy shit! Did Sasori grab her by the throat?" Gaara smirked.

"Yes he did"

"Damn I wish I could have seen that."

"Yeah it was fun watching the bitch choke. We have decided that were going to help you guys with Sakura. She really needs to move on from Sasuke. He will only end up hurting her even more"

"Sure"

"Damnit Deidara!" Itachi yelled followed by a few crashing noises before the line died. Gaara looked at his phone. 'eh' he thought closing his eyes again with a smirk.

Sakura yawned, stretching out on her bed like a fat and lazy cat. Sakura sniffed the air to smell the fresh smell of coffee drifting from the kitchen. 'need coffee' Sakura climbed of the bed, following the wonderful morning aroma. Tsunade sat at the kitchen table sipping some coffee while working on some papers.

"Alien!" Sakura accused pointing her finger in Tsunade's direction.

"No" She held her cup to her lips to sip some more of the wonderful liquid.

"It must be. I know Tsunade enough to know that she would never sit at home at this hour working on papers" Sakura still had her finger pointing at Tsunade. There lay lots of paper piles all around Tsunade of the desk.

"Shizune blackmailed me to finish up some papers. If I knew being principal was this much work I would never have excepted after the third died" Tsunade placed her cup on the table "Get yourself a cup Sakura"

Sakura walked over to the counter to pour herself some coffee. She added milk and sugar before sitting at the other side of the kitchen table with Tsunade. "So Shizune blackmailed you. She must have hid all your precious sake"

"yeah" Tsunade nodded. "She did" Sakura snickered. She stretched in the chair by putting her hands behind her back and stretching.

"Holy shit my arm hurts" Sakura complained sitting upright again. She held her right arm, examining it for any visible damage but there were none which only meant that it was a muscle that she must have sprained during the bowling they did the previous night.

"Sakura" Tsunade stared at the pink headed girl before her. This must have been the first time that Tsunade have ever heard Sakura swear and Tsunade knew her since birth.

"Oops sorry." Sakura scratched the back of her head like Naruto. The blond also rubbed off her since she knew him. "Guess Akatsuki guys are rubbing off on me" Sakura smiled sheepishly.

"Along as the crime streak doesn't" Tsunade shrugged. She folded her arms over her paper work which she really did not want to finish. Under the table stood a whole box full of papers that needed to be done.

"Im too much of a good girl even though I just sweared " Sakura replied. "I need to take a shower. You may continue your work" Sakura stood up from her chair taking her cup with her where she dropped it off in the kitchen sink. Sakura washed the cup. Sakura smiled at Tsunade as she walked towards the bathroom. Sakura took a nice long shower washing her hair with bubble gun smelling shampoo that she got for Christmas by Kakashi. He even commented that her hair reminded him of bubblegum. Smiling Sakura washed her body with the same liquid soap that came with the shampoo. When Sakura was finished she towel dried her pink hair and brushed her teeth. Sakura opened her cupboard that held the new clothed Temari gave her. Sakura quickly selected a pair to wear before walking back to the kitchen where Tsunade sat writing on a paper.

"I should probably go home today" Sakura sighted looking at the floor. She really did not feel like going back home but she couldn't do anything against it. She had to go home.

"Are you sure" Tsunade sat down her pen. She had a serious frown on her face. Tsunade really felt her heart gave a jolt at the mention of Sakura going back to them.

"Yes. You know how they get when I don't return" Sakura replied looking anywhere in the room than Tsunade. She really did not like the look in Tsunade's eyes every time she mentioned going home.

"They called the cops and reported you missing" Tsunade sighted.

"Three days it took them before calling the police just because they didn't get their money" Sakura looked for her messenger bag that held her homework for the weekend.

"Bloody loafers." Tsunade sweared under her breath. She felt like knocking all their teeth out and backing her car over them for a minutes before dumping their bodies into a hole where they belonged. "You should take them to court." Tsunade added. She tried convincing Sakura to take them to court over and over again but the pink head always refused.

"You know I cant, Tsunade Sama" Sakura slung her messenger bags strap over her shoulder "I need to go to town before going home So I guess I see you on Monday"

"Okay. Remember to call me when something happens even if its just a little thing" Tsunade stood up from the table, following Sakura to the front door.

"You worry too much, watch out or you will have plenty of wrinkles" Sakura joked. She hugged Tsunade goodbye before setting off for a whole Saturday in town.

Sakura was calmly walking down the street. It was a bit hot out today. Sakura played with the hem of the shirt. She just couldn't believe that Temari would spend so much money on new clothes. Sakura was fitted in black cargo pants with a red T shirt that was made out of net. To describe it, it was a normal T-shirt in the front her neck to under her breasts where it became a black net until just above her bellybutton. Temari had insisted that Sakura wear the shirt because Sakura had the body and beauty and should not try to hide it. Sakura never worse Shirts that exposed her stomach nor did she ever wear short skirts or tight pants. On her feet she had black flip-flops decorated with skulls. 'Temari sure had a fetish for skulls' Sakura thought as she stared at her feet. Gaara even selected a choker that he liked. It was just a black string with a red heart on it. The heart had a black skull inside of it that was covered in blood. Sakura really was not a person for this kind of stuff but it looked so cool and reminded her of Gaara's tattoo.

Sakura kicked a small rock in front of her. She was caught up thinking about going back to them. The idea of just going back home was enough to scare Sakura. She felt a pang in her heart. 'That place only brings me pain and sadness' Sakura thought. Sighting she decided to think about something less depressing than them. A red balloon in the sky reminded her of Gaara's unruly red hair that stood up in every direction.

Sakura's thoughts went to the red headed boy who made her heart beat at a rapid pace. Not even Sasuke could ever make her heart jump like it did when she even thinks of the red head. Sasuke's handsomeness was a typical pretty boy who's the most popular and the best n everything he did. He got instant fan girls as he grew even better looking each year and even more praises as his skills in school developed. Gaara was different. He had many bad experiences in life. His red hair reminded one of blood with heavy eye lined eyes that made his eyes seem even colder when he glared. His skin was so unusually pale but not too pale. Gaara was truly handsome. His handsomeness surpasses that of Sasuke's.

Sakura closed her green eyes thinking of the way Gaara's lips moves when he speaks and the way he would roll his eyes at Kankuro's stupidity. Most of all was the way Gaara's lips would twitch when Kankuro and Temari's fought about stupid things. She crossed the street without even thinking about cars or any moving vehicle could end her life in a matter of seconds. Her focus was fully on the red headed bad boy.

A loud screeching sound of tires against tar snapped Sakura right out of her daydream. She watched as a black and red bike skidded over the road towards her. Frozen in panic Sakura did not move. She couldn't even close her eyes as she looked at the driver who had a fitting black and red helmet. The front tire of the bike stopped a few inches from Sakura's body before it finally stopped. Sakura coughed as she remembered to start breathing again for she did stopped breathing the second she saw the bike sped towards her.

"Fuck!" The guy yelled as he almost got thrown off the bike as it finally stopped moving. He looked up at Sakura for a while. The driver had on black leather pants with straps and buckles everywhere, silver chains dangled on the belt. His feet were covered with black and silver boots that had a skull on the front side. A red shirt with a bloody skull holding a electric guitar with the words 'Fuck you' carved on the skulls head.

"I'm so Sorry! I really didn't meant to –" Sakura started but was cut off when the driver held up his hand motioning her to stop.

"As long as your okay. You are okay aren't you?" The driver said. He raised both his hands to the helmet. When he took it off, Green eyes met green. Gaara's teal eyes locked with Sakura's jade ones. A smirk adorned Gaara's face.

"I'm ok" Sakura smiled at Gaara. She always felt her heart leap just by being around him. Gaara smiled a small smile at her. Sakura's heart nearly went on over drive as she saw him smiling. It was a small smile but that did not matter along as he smiled.

"You should really look where your going or pay attention when your walking over a street." Gaara had a very serious expression on his face as her sat his helmet down onto his lap.

"Yeah true and you should stop speeding" Sakura replied, placing her hands on her hips to get the message across.

"I could, I should but I don't wanna" Gaara Smirked at her.

"Weirdo" Sakura laughed at him. Sakura completely forgotten about home as Gaara's presence made her feel warm and safe.

"Why, Thank you" Gaara said in a playful manner as he smirked at Sakura. Gaara just loved it when Sakura laughed. Her laugh was soft, sweet and feminine not like some girls who sounded more like they swollen a toad that got caught in their throat.

"Hey Gaara, since its so hot today, you want to get a ice cream with me? There Is a nice place right around the corner that sells the best ice cream" Sakura asked. Gaara sat there thinking for a while before he answered

"I could go for one" Gaara got off his bike

"Cool!" Sakura smiled. Gaara and Sakura walked along each other while Gaara pushed his bike into a parking lot in front of the place. He and Sakura both went inside the place. The place was really colorful and smelled cold with a flavor. Sakura took a seat in the front of the place and Gaara took the seat right in front of her. The seat they sat in was bright red with yellow stripes. The tables were green.

"Sasuke hates this place" Sakura sighted looking around at the place. It was so colorful and nice. Made her remind of a kindergarten. The walls were each a different color, pink, yellow, green, orange and red assaulted her vision as she took the whole place in.

"What to colorful and happy for emo boy?" Gaara asked mockingly. He looked around the very colorful room. This much color could really blind a person like Gaara who was not so very much into bright and happy colors but colors really did not matter to him just as long as he did not have to live with them. What is a stupid color really than a color?

"No he hates sweets" Sakura Laughed at Gaara's tone concerning Sasuke. "In fact Sasuke hates most sweet things" She added.

"Stupid gay prick" Gaara muttered thinking about the raven-haired asshole who he really wanted to level with the floors surface.

"You really hate him don't you" Sakura asked watching Gaara read the menu before him.

"There is no word stronger to describe my hate towards him. Sasuke was like this when I first met him a while back." Gaara replied still reading the evenly colorful menu.

"Everyone in Akatsuki hates him. I know Deidara wants to hurt him the most out of all of them. Deidara cant even be in the same room as Sasuke before trying to strangle him. Back when they were in school together, Deidara would try to kill him if it wasn't for Sasori or Kisame holding him back, he'd be dead a long time ago." Sakura laughed at the memory "Sasuke hates Deidara and that is why he keeps on calling Deidara a girl and stuff like that"

"I wouldn't mind if Deidara beat him up. People who stoop so low to use stupid name calling are real losers" Gaara said "This looks good" Gaara pointed to a picture in the menu

"Cookies and cream?" Sakura asked looking at the picture Gaara shown her.

"Its my favorite flavor, Temari says im obsessed with cookies" Gaara said looking at Sakura as she started laughing at him.

"Nice. I would never have thought you were a cookie person. So that's why you liked the cookies I brought to class that day!" Sakura laughed again "That looks good by the way. Guess I want it too" Sakura ushered the waiter over and ordered two cookies and cream milkshakes. Nodding the waiter walked off to get their orders.

"I never told you why I went to juvy. " Gaara suddenly spoke up. Sakura looked over at him.

"No, you didn't and you really don't have to. I really dot mind. Itachi told me his side of the story after the rumors of him killing his parents spread through out the school" Sakura smiled a reassuring smile at Gaara.

"I want to "

Flash back

It was a normal sunny day in the city of Suna. The sun was blazing its natural heat down on everything that stood open to receive its rays. A lone figure walked through the streets. He was dressed in black, white and fishnet. The figure's bloody red hair bounced up and down as he took each step. The boy named Sabaku no Gaara had his messenger bag slung over his shoulder. He had both his hands shoved in his pockets as he walked, kicking a stone every few steps. School ended a good hour ago for the students of Suna on this sunny Friday afternoon. Gaara glared up at the sun with his heavy eye lined green eyes. The dark circles were those of eyeliner and also a sign of insomnia. 'Stupid loud people' Gaara thought angrily. School usually made him grumpy for school were filled with loud people who thought screaming and acting like fools were cool. It only annoyed Gaara. The more talkative a person is, the more Gaara hated them. Gaara sighted taking an alleyway as a shortcut. He really did not care about being at home but the only true place for piece and quite and being alone was his room.

"Im not scared of Gaara" Gaara stopped walking as he heard people talking on the other side of the corner he was just about to take. By the loud noises and lots of screaming He could only assume that they were a group of people. Gaara leaned against the corners wall, closing his eyes. He decided to listen. It was not everyday that Gaara heard people sound so brave. "Really?" Gaara heard a second boy ask. Loud mummers and some giggling confirmed his suspicions of a group of stupid teens. Gaara assumed that the first one was between brave or stupid. "Gaara is just one person and he's younger than me. Why should I be afraid of him" The first voice stated in what was suppose to be a tough guy voice. Gaara snorted. Only idiots made their voices seem tougher for they were just all spineless shit heads. "Haven't you ever heard what happens when you go against him?" A girl's unmistakable squeaky voice asked. Gaara could tell that she was very frightened because of the topic they were discussing. "Tch, rumors,. I'll believe it when I see it " The stupid first boy said again. "I could take that stupid monster on anytime anywhere" Gaara's eyes snapped open. He glared at the floor, his green eyes filled with unmistakable hatred. "Proof it" Gaara's cold and cruel voice boomed through the alleyway. Gaara walked around the corner, shadows overlapping his form as he walked through the shadows towards the group of teenagers. "Who's there" a girl asked. From her tone one could workout that she was the previous girl who spoke up.

"Just a monster lusting for some blood" Gaara mocked. He walked further into the light, shadows pulled off his form. Bright red hair stood put, cold green eyes flashed as he smirked at the group.

"Its Gaara!" The second boy's voice sounded as he yelled. The group grabbed their bags and scattered away from Gaara. "What? No one want to fight me?" Gaara asked mockingly. He watched as one boy bravely stood there in front of him. He had a seniors, football jacket on. "Im not scared of you, Gaara" The boy said. "oh?" Gaara asked smirking. He could feel his blood start to rush. This boy in front of him was the same boy who just a minute ago called him a monster. A sickening smile made its way on his face. "Fine then show me" Gaara cocked his head to the side, mockingly. The boy attacked. He threw a punch at Gaara's face. Gaara ducked the punch grabbing the boy's arm and breaking it. Loud screaming echoed through the dark alleyway. Gaara slammed the boy against the wall, grabbing him by his throat. Sputtering the boy screamed, trying to rid himself of Gaara's hand on his neck. "Monster, eh?" Gaara hissed, tightening his grip on the boy before him. "I'll show you a true fucking monster" Loud screaming of pain and agony were heard by the group of people who were running and tripping over each other to get as far away from Gaara as possible.

Temari was laying on the couch of their Suna home, making out with the football teams star, Chris. He was a handsome black-headed boy who had a thing for badass girls. He was known as a man with a short temper who loved getting what he wanted. Slowly he sneaked his hand up Temari's shirt. He lifted up the sports bra by an inch, trying to take the whole thing off. Suddenly he was pushed back by Temari. Chris landed on the floor with a thud.

"What the hell!" Temari yelled. She pulled her shirt down to cover herself.

"Come on baby, you know you want it" He said smirking, crawling toward Temari.

"No. I don't want this. You are trying to go to far."

"Come on you want it"

"Im not a slut." Temari hissed at the black haired boy, crawling towards her.

"Whatever you say" Chris pushed her down on the couch. Temari screamed, trying to kick him off. Chris just chuckled, running his hand over Temari.

"Get out!" Temari punched Chris in the face, making him fall off the couch. He was screaming while holding onto his face.

"Bitch!" He swore holding his nose. Blood gushed onto his hand as he held his face. Temari, jumped up from the couch not caring if she broken his nose or not. She just wanted to get away from this guy. A hand grabbed onto Temari's ankle, pulling her back. Temari fell, making contact with the hard floor. Chris crawled up to her, pushing Temari on her back.

"Let me go you stupid jack ass!" Temari screamed, trying to hit him again. Chris punched Temari in her face. He grabbed her hand, pushing it on the floor above her head. Temari tried to push him off but couldn't. He was just to strong for her. Her cheek stung where his fist made contact with her face.

"I'll show you, you bitch" Chris ripped Temari's shirt off her body. He was running his hands over her body. Touching her everywhere. Chris pulled his belt from his pants. He pushed both Temari's hands together, tying them with the belt. "Don't move" Chris stood up, leaving her lying there in the middle of the living room. He came back a while later with a knife in his hand which he probably got from the kitchen. "Now we can have some fun" Chris snickered crouching down. He started cutting Temari's pants with the knife.

"Stay away you asshole" Temari kicked him against the head. He wiped the blood from his lip. He punched her again over and over again until Temari couldn't move. "I hope you fall and cut your dick off" Temari spat out blood. Chris stabbed the knife into her side making her scream, tears rolled over her cheeks.

"Shut up, wrench" Chris stood up kicking Temari. She coughed up blood. Chris started to cut the material of her pants again. The material fell away revealing her smooth, silky legs. Chris licked his lips as he left her laying there in only her underwear, slowly he started to cut her panties away inch by inch. Temari tried screaming but it was hard to breath at the moment.

The front door opened, interrupting Chris. He held the blade a few inches away from the last piece of material that would have revealed what he was lusting for.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Gaara stood in the doorway of their house. He saw his sister lay on the floor in a pool of her own blood, tears streaked her face as she was whimpering. Gaara's eyes met the black haired boy. No emotions showed on Gaara's face as he watched the scene in front of him.

"Sabaku no Gaara" Chris chuckled looking at the red head. "Im happy you're the one who came here first. That brother of yours would have killed me if he saw what I did to her" Chris motioned towards Temari with his head "But you wouldn't do anything, you don't care for anyone but yourself" He laughed.

"Gaara" Temari moaned in pain. She stretched her tied up hands out towards Gaara. Her eyes pleading for help.

"Shut up!" Chris stabbed her in the leg. "Im talking you bitch" He hissed. Blood ran over her legs from the wound. "Now im going to fuck you over and over again, It would be no use asking for help from that monster you call brother" He laughed. He lowered the knife to cut the last string of her panties.

Crash

Chris landed on the glass coffee table. It shattered, cutting into his back. Chris looked up expecting to see Temari glare at him while having her foot raised but he couldn't believe when he saw Gaara standing over his sister, glaring at him with those dead green eyes.

"Come near her again" Gaara hissed. His blood was boiling, his heart was pounding and his adrenaline levels shot up after he saw his sister on the floor. " and I'll fucking kill you"

"Wow, the monster has a heart after all": Chris laughed "What can you do punk? A 13 year old cannot take someone 5 years his senior on. Plus" Chris brushed his hair from his onyx eyes. "Im a black belt in karate. Im the champion 5 years running" He mocked.

Gaara's lip curled up in a smile "and im a monster" Gaara lunched at the boy. Chris eyes widened at the boys speed as Gaara slammed him back into the wall. Gaara didn't hesitate as he ripped out his own knife as stabbed Chris against the wall right through his shoulder. Blood gushed from the wound. Slowly Gaara walked back where the kitchen knife lay that Chris used on Temari. His green eyes flashed with excitement as Gaara laughed. "Lets play" His voice sounded almost inhuman. The red head held up the knife as he advanced on Chris.

"No don't!" Chris begged as he pissed himself in fear. Gaara advanced raising the knife above his head. He kept on laughing as he brought the knife down on Chris. He stabbed him over and over again, laughing as he kept on stabbing the boy. Blood splattered against the wall, the floor and all over Gaara.

Sirens filled the air as a police car sped down the road towards the big house of Mayor Sabaku. 911 got a call from the neighbors who claimed they kept on hearing a girl scream for help. The police ran into the house after they knocked don the front door. The sight before them made them want to throw up. Blood was everywhere, a red head was laughing his mind off while covered in blood. Before him hang a piece of meat that was suspected of being a person. Scared out of their mind they called for back up and ambulance.

It took 5 cops to restrain the out of his Mind Gaara. Kankuro had come home a few minutes before back up came. He had to stay with Temari before Gaara calmed down. The red head wanted to stab every one who came close to his sister. A straight jacket was pulled onto the red headed boy before they threw him in the police car. Temari and Chris was send to the hospital.

Temari had scarring on her body that would not disappear but she was alive and well thanks to Gaara who showed up in time to stop Chris. Chris on the other hand was stabbed a total of 47 times. The boy was immediately send to the ICU. He's unable to use his right arm for the rest of his life and he's been confined to a wheel chair.

Gaara was charged with two accounts of attempted manslaughter. The police found a boy in an alleyway who had two broken arms and a fractured shoulder. Gaara's sentence was cut short for he was found to be mentally ill and sentenced to a special mental ward in Juvy, where all the mentally disturbed criminals went. Gaara also got only 3 years of Juvy for he was using self-defense to save his sisters life but he almost killed a boy.

Three years went by and Gaara was released on good behavior. He got off with a warning that if he ever harmed another person like he did with Chris he would be thrown in prison for the rest of his life.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sakura sat there listening Gaara's story with wide eyes. She just couldn't believe that Gaara was so close to kill another person.

"So do you hate me now?" Gaara asked. He played with the last bit of his ice cream that stood in front of him. People hated and was terrified at Gaara after the incident. "When I was released, no one wanted to be near me. My teachers were afraid of giving me class. It took one year before they refused to have me in the school so my father send me to this place. He bought a house that was secluded from everyone. Its funny really. No one wanted me in their school except Tsunade who accepted me, knowing of my past"

"No I don't hate you" Sakura whispered " You are a hero in my eyes. You saved Temari from that awful person.- "

"I would have killed him" Gaara cut in. He and Sakura got up, paying the bill for the ice cream. The two of them walked side by side out of the parlor. They walked and talked not even caring where to they walked.

"Its normal for a person to snap like you did." Sakura said. They both walked into the park. The park was empty with not a single person or dog.

"I knew my father hated me before since I took her life when I was born" Gaara sighted. "He hated me a lot more after that incident. He nearly lost his position as major of Suna.

"Parents don't always understand" Sakura whispered ". A single drop ran down her cheek. Another drop fell on her shoulder. "They – ahhhh" Sakura screamed as it started raining harder and harder by the second. Gaara grabbed her arm and pulled her underneath a small tree with thick branches that stopped most of the rain.

"Where the hell did this rain come from" Gaara asked looking at the falling rain. He held Sakura in his arm as they were pressed against each other in other to stay underneath he small tree. Gaara could feel her breasts pressing against him, her curves underneath his fingers and her breath against his cheek.

"Your amazing, Gaara" she whispered looking at him. "You saved Temari from such a bad faith. There is nothing worse than that for a girl" Gaara looked at her. Her eyes were so beautiful.

"I don't know what the Uchiha see in Blondie, your so beautiful" Gaara whispered. It felt like he lost his voice as he stared at the most beautiful person he have ever seen. "I Wouldn't want to lose someone like you"

"Your even better looking than that Damn Sasuke" Sakura whispered, captivated by those green eyes. Their lips touched softly as if they were both making sure it was not just a dream. The kiss became more passionate after their lips touched. Sakura ran her hands over Gaara's chest while Gaara's hands played with Sakura's hair.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Sasuke had to stand and wait underneath a umbrella outside the restaurant after the rain started to fall hard. He watched as the rain fell every where. 'The rain looks so beautiful falling over the grass, over the trees in the park and over Gaara and Sakura kissing' Sasuke thought.

"What the Fuck!" Sasuke sweared. People who stood close to him inched away from the screaming Raven haired boy. "Why is she kissing that, that scum and why the hell is he kissing her!" Sasuke glared at the couple. "Sakura is mine" Sasuke hissed. He his teeth clenched in sync with is fists.

The rain stopped falling so hard. It started to fall less and less until it stopped raining. Funny how weather can come so quickly and just go away just as quickly.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Sakura" Gaara whispered when their kiss ended.

"Hmm" Sakura looked up at those beautiful green eyes.

"Can I – I set my friends on fire!" Gaara's cell phone screamed as it played Aidens – I set my friends on fire.

"You have to get that" Sakura smiled at him. She really did not mind him not finishing the sentence. Nothing could destroy her good mood now. Smiling a real smile, Gaara answered his cell phone.

"Yeah its Gaara" He listened for a while before groaning. "Fine. I'll be there in a sec" Gaara closed his cell phone before stuffing it back into his pocket. "That was my psychiatrist who I have to go see every month as a part of my parole. Im not allowed to miss a session" Gaara said.

"Then go" Sakura smiled "I'll see you around" She said letting her hands fall from his chest.

"I'll be seeing you Sakura and thanks for the Ice cream and my first kiss" Gaara kissed her on the cheek. Sakura stared at his back as he walked away waving at her. She smiled at his retreating back.

"Well I guess I have to continue my shopping" Sakura walked away from under the tree. She walked over the wet grass towards a small shop that sold her favorite shampoo since the shampoo she had was nearly finished and at home there wasn't her type of shampoo.

Sakura was about to open the stores door when she heard a voice. "Having fun" The voice hissed. Sakura turned around to see Sasuke leaning against the wall of the shop, glaring at her.

"Yeah until you showed up" Sakura said with distaste. So much for having a great day.

"Really?" Sasuke pushed himself from the wall as he walked over to Sakura. Sasuke stood in front of her, still glaring at her with pure hatered. "Whore" Sasuke slapped her. Sakura's cheek burned where he hit her. Tears started to form in Sakura's eyes as she looked down.

"If Im a whore Sasuke Kun." Sakura said looking up at him. "What the fuck are you?" Sakura hissed. Sasuke glared at her bringing his arm up to slap her again. Sakura closed her eyes, waiting for the burn but it never came. She opened her eyes to see Sasuke's hand inches from her face. His hand was being held by someone else's.

"Call her that again and I'll fucking break you arm" Itachi said. His voice was filled with so much malice.

"Yea right" Sasuke hissed at his brother. "Your just jealous that Sakura loves me and not you!" Itachi's grip tightened on Sasuke's arm.

"I care for Sakura unlike you. Tell me little brother, how many times a week do you fuck that blond bitch?" Itachi asked.

"Sakura is nothing but a whole" Sasuke hissed smirking at the pain shown on her face.

"Foolish little brother" Itachi smirked. Itachi moved so fast that Sasuke dint have time to react as Itachi broke his arm. Sasuke let out a blood-curling scream as he fell onto the floor clutching his arm. His left arm was bend in a awkward angle with a bone sticking out of the flesh. "Touch her again and I sweat I'll kill you even if you are my stupid little brother" Itachi took Sakura's hand. "Come on Sakura. I'll give you a lift"

"Okay" Sakura whispered. She touched her burning cheek. She followed Itachi as they walked away from the screaming Sasuke who lay on the floor, clutching his broken arm. Tears slipped down Sakura's cheeks. Sasuke shattered the last piece of her heart. Her heart was officially broken.

Ino and her gang of screamers in skirts all sat in a fancy hair salon. They were having their hair and nails done. Ino sat in the middle with Aimi and Kim on either side of her.

"I met Sasuke's' older brother. He had a re head, a pale looking guy with blue hair and this one freak who wanted to hurt me." Ino started the conversation. Both her friends stopped talking about what eyeliner is the best.

"Did the blond look like a Girl?" Aimi asked.

"Yea." Ino shrugged. To her this wasn't a big deal what did it matter really.

"That's Deidara. The red head is Sasori ands mr blue is known as Kisame. Sasuke's brother is Itachi" Rin said.

"Wait you know them?" Ino sat up straight listening intently to her friends.

"Everyone in the school knows the. Those four went to the same high school a few years back. They were knows as the Akatsuki group here. "Rin went on

"Akatsuki?" Ino asked confused. She admit, she has heard that name a few times at school but never cared enough to listen to them.

"Yeah. The meaner, cruelest and also the dangerous group ever known in school history." Aimi chipped in.

"Ive heard each and everyone of them killed someone" Rin whispered.

"Ive heard they are all criminals who broke out of prison" Aimi whispered.

"Anyway No one ever dared to piss them off back before they graduated and went to collage but I do hear that they come home every break to live in the Uchiha mansion. Its something to do with Itachi having to be at home until Sasuke Kun turns 18" Kim waved off the thought of whispering and spoke in her normal tone.

"I've also heard that Sakura hangs out with them a lot. Sakura use to always be with them around school and during breaks. They are really touchy about her" The one hair dresser said. She was a young girl who presumably went to Konah high when Itachi and his friends were still there.

"I've also heard of that one guy who called Sakura a teachers pet no….no it was something about her and Kakashi. They said that they will report her because of her and Kakashi's 'intimate' relationship." The assistants friend chimed in. She looked just as young as her friend next to her.

"Come to think of it. It was the last time I ever heard of that boy. He just gone missing. His house were empty and no one ever heard of him ever again. "Rin answered.

"So If you like diss Sakura in front of them would they be pissed" Ino asked uncertain. She could feel her body go numb already.

"Pissed will not cover it. Sakura is like their younger sister. They will eat you alive" Aimi said looking at Ino with wide eyes.

"Fuck" Ino breathed out. The numbness in her body spread from her feet up to her neck.

"Don't tell me you did" Rin asked. Her eyes were wide even the hairdressers stopped brushing and grooming their hair. They both had their brushes a few inches above the girls hair while their faces expressed shock..

"Yeah. But Sasuke will protect me"

"Don't think so. Itachi is the cruelest of all them and his love for Sasuke is not high." Aimi muttered.

"Why?" Ino asked.

"Ok its like this" Rin started.

Flash back

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Little Sasuke pushed open the front door. He poked his little head into the house. Usually his mother would greet him when he returned home from a day of school. "mom, dad?" He stepped inside the house, his school bag on his back

"Nii-san?" Sasuke walked into the kitchen where it stood empty. The living room and even the study all had not a single live form in it. 'Brother" Sasuke began panicking. His footsteps echoed as he walked. "MOM, DAD, BIG BROTHER!" Tears started to streak down his face. No one responded to him. The only thing he heard was his own voice echo back to him.

A blood-curling scream sounded through out the Uchiha mansion.

Sasuke's heartbeat began rising at a rapid pace. 'That came from mommy and daddy's room' Sasuke slowly walked up the stairs towards their room. He walked silently, taking small steps. Another scream pierced his ears. 'is mommy crying?' Sasuke panicked as he heard crying following the screaming. Sasuke he ran towards the telephone dialing 911.

" Hello, what is your emergency" The operator answered. She sounded so bored.

"Im scared. I cant see my mommy or daddy. I can hear screaming in their room. Help me im so scared the place is so cold and empty" Sasuke whimpered.

"How old are you?" The operator sounded more awake and a bit worried.

"Im nine" He said.

"Just stay there we will send a squad car" She said.

"O ok." Sasuke whispered in his tiny little voice.

Another scream sounded. "please done. Don't hurt Sasuke. NOOOOOOOO" Sasuke dropped the phone on the floor. The operator's voice sounded through the receiver.

Panicked stricken Sasuke did what most kids would do. He ran up the stairs to his parents room. Opening it he watched with wide eyes as his mother lay on her stomach choking on her own blood as her throat spilled blood from the long cut. His father lay there with a knife in his heart. Sasuke screamed and screamed at the sight.

"Don't come in Sasuke!" A cold voice yelled.

Sasuke looked up to see his older brother, Itachi covered in blood. Itachi was just thirteen years old but his maturity level was like that of a sixteen year old. Itachi looked toward the balcony window. The Door to the balcony stood open. The curtains in front of the balcony door had blood on them.

"Nii San" Sasuke watched his brother. Itachi sat in front of his dying mother as the blood trickled down her mouth. Itachi looked down at his mother as she still chocked on her own blood. Her eyes were wide as tears leaked out. Sasuke was about to walk into the room when Itachi's head snapped up.

"Stay out!" Itachi yelled. Sasuke ran away from the door crying. He ran down the stairs, through the front door and collided into a blue clad police officer.

"Help Daddy and Mommy" he screamed. Tears ran down his cheeks as his whole body shook.

"Look after him" The police officer gave the crying boy to his partner who was a woman. She nodded at him, her blond hair falling over her eyes. The officer ran into the house.

Sasuke sat on the floor, next to lady as she talked to him like a mother would to their frightened little child. Footsteps made them both look up to the front door. The officer walked out leading the blood covered Itachi out in front of him. Itachi's hands were cuffed as he stared forward. His eyes were cold and hard as he walked past Sasuke.

Itachi was interrogated at the station but no matter what they said, Itachi just looked forward. His face and eyes were blank. He didn't utter a single word even after they threatened to pin the death on him. The police investigated the scene to find that there was an intruder who killed Itachi's parents. It was believed that Itachi came back home after school to find his parents in their room being tortured. Itachi tried saving his parents but he failed as they both were killed by the intruder. Itachi slit the intruders throat in rage. The intruder sputtered in his own blood. He was trying to get away from the room, thus he ran towards the balcony. Itachi had watched as the intruder fell over the railing, disappearing from sight.

In the end Itachi got sentenced to 3 years of juvy. He was put into the Psychiatric ward after being diagnosed as being mentally ill. It was said that Itachi suffered a mental blow after failing to save his parents. Sasuke blamed Itachi for his parents death as he grew up, he started hating his brother for taking his parents away.

"Your jealous because they loved and cared for me a lot more than they did for you!" Sasuke screamed that night when Itachi returned from Juvy.
