Sakura closed her eyes breathing in the wonderful scent that occurs after rain has befallen the earth and wiped it clean. She was busy walking towards her home. Sakura did not want Itachi to see where she lived so she jut asked him to drop her off at the town library. After Itachi drove away, Sakura shoved all her shopping goods into a locker she kept at the library. She loved reading so much that she got a locker where she could keep all her library books when she finished reading them. This was the best way not to loose the books when she wasn't busy with them.
Sakura subconsciously rubbed her cheek where Sasuke hit her. It still stung but the pain in her heart was more than any slap could ever inflict. She really hoped that no mark will form on it, imagine what Tsunade will do when she sees it or worse imagine what Gaara, Sasori, Kisame and Deidara will do to Sasuke. Sakura sighted rubbing her cheek again 'Sasuke kun I loved you so much and I will do anything you ever wanted me to. I would die for you, I would even kill for you but now ...' A tear rolled over her cheek 'Now I wont do anything for you'
The houses and environment started to change as Sakura walked towards the place she hates the most in the entire world. The houses grew smaller and smaller. They looked so dark and lonely like a thrown away object that everyone walked past and ignored. The paint on them started to peeled off the walls leaving dark patches, moss and other kinds of plants started to grow on the houses. The rooftops were gray, holes appeared on some of them while some houses did not even have rooftops.
Junkies, whores and druggies littered the streets as she kept on walking towards her home. Trash cans were being used for fire by some bums and others were used by gang members with their pierced and tattooed bodies. Their clothes were tattered from fights and other activities.
Sakura stopped in front of a run down house. The houses once red roof had plates where holes formed on it, rats run up and down the gutters of the house. The front door hung on one hinge while the other hinge rusted away many years ago. Paint peeled off the wooden door that had a covered up hole in the middle. The door reminded Sakura of a scared person who went through one hell of an ordeal. Closing her eyes Sakura walked towards the place called home. 'Home's suppose to bring love and piece but some brings pain and sadness' Sakura thought.
The smell of rotten plants, smoke, alcohol and the sweaty smell of sex invaded Sakura's nose as she pushed through the broken front door. She nearly gagged at the smell as she felt bile rising to her throat. 'all you need is the smell of blood and Whola you have a brothel' Sakura thought in disgust. She had to wait a few minutes for her eyes to adjust to the darkened house before moving further into the 'house of horrors' as she called it many years ago.
Down the light shown a single light from a room. Moaning, screaming and the thumping of a bed post against the wall assaulted her ears. It all came from that room down the hall. The floors creaked as she walked around the house with its dirty white walls and mud covered floor, towards the stairs. She needed to get up the stairs before anyone realizes that she's home.
Eerie silence assaulted Sakura's ears. Her body froze as she realized that the thumping, screaming and moaning just stopped. 'oh no, please don't tell me' Sakura started to shake at the thought of what could happen. She could feel tears starting to form in her eyes.
"Sakura!" Slowly Sakura closed her eyes and turned around. In front of her stood a man with black hair that was sticking against his sweaty face from the 'activities' he just went though. He wore loose fitting sweat pants and no shirt. Sweat glistened from his muscled and tattooed chest.
"So, Where have you been you little whore?" The man asks, stepping closer to Sakura. His green eyes burning into hers. "You should have been back two days ago"
"You know, dad. Fucking around" Sakura said sarcastically. "Just like you" she added, glaring at the man in front of her. Her Father glared at her.
"Sarcastic little bitch" He raised his hand and punched Sakura in the face, making her fall backwards. Sakura fell onto the dirty floor, nearly landing on a fat brown rat. She lay on the floor holding her bleeding nose with her left hand while the right hand was raised as protection from the man in front of her. "I'll teach you some manners you little whore" He started to kick Sakura, landing blows to her face and stomach. He stepped on her arms and legs instead of kicking them. Sakura screamed as he kept on beating her without any remorse. His face had a sick little smile on as he watched blood dripping from her screaming mouth. "From that mark on your face I can see that your clients didn't like that tone either. Whores should not speak and do what their told" He kicked her again.
"Stop it honey" A woman with equally messed and sweaty black hair stood behind him. She only wore a long shirt and nothing else to hide her naked body. She wrapped her hands around his chest. "You know if you beat her so much, people will start to notice and take her away from us." The woman smirked at Sakura "The bitch is useful to us" The woman licked his shoulder as she purred.
"Give us the money, Sakura then you can go fuck more people. All we need is the money you oh so gracefully bring to us every week." The man sneered at the broken and shaking girl. He kneeled next to her, grabbing her bag. "Lets see" He dug through her bags and took her wallet. The books in it meant nothing to him anyway. He just wanted her money. "Good, whore" He mocked, pocketing all her money that she had in her wallet.
"Lets go finish our activities, the others are waiting" The woman who is Sakura's own mother smiled at her husband and the cash he shoved in his pocket.
"Indeed" He kicked Sakura once more for good measures "Talk to me like that again, whore and I swear you wont be able to show your pretty face ever again" He laughed, grabbing his wife by her waist and went back towards the room with the light.
The moaning, screaming and thumping started up again soon after. Tears streaked over Sakura's face as she lay there covered in blood, dirt and dust. Sakura slowly crawled towards the stairs. She used the wobbly railing to pull herself up so that she was standing. Slowly she climbed the stairs that creaked and wobbled. Her whole body racket with pain as she climbed the stairs. She bit her lip and climbed the steep stairs towards the 'tower' or as you can call it the attic.
Sakura pushed through a small door that hung on its last hinge, it opened with a squeak. The little room stood bare, holes assaulted the entire room, windows stood broken and covered up with rotten wooden planks similar to the floor and roof's rotten wooden planks. In the far corner or her room was a make shift bag filled with straw that she called her bed. A dirty blanket filled with holes and reeked of urine lay on the bed where she slept. This was the place Sakura grew up in. She use to spend all her time at home before Kakashi and Tsunade saved her and provided her a home. Her parents thought her absence was because she was off whoring.
'Lets see' Sakura thought as she carefully advanced herself towards the 'bed' she slept on every time she had to come to this place. Sakura pushed the bed aside. Underneath it was a hole with a chest inside. Sakura opened the chest, inside lay a bag filled with all her belongings. She always had to hide it otherwise her 'parents' would sell it for drugs or whatever they usually did with their money or her money.
Sakura pulled out the bag and slung it over her shoulders. Pain assaulted her broken body. Sakura pushed away the chest and climbed into the hole. A torch hung inside the hole against a rusted nail. Sakura took the torch from the nail and crept in the hole along a path she personally dug out herself. She emerged from a hole in the side of the house, next to a huge tree where she climbed into the tree and slid down to the floor from a broken branch. Sakura always use to get out of the house this way when she was little. She never wanted to use the front door for they would have heard her and beat her for just being out of her room without their permission. The route was hard to use to get out of the house but impossible to get in the house. That's why Sakura always had to go through the front door to get into the house.
Sakura looked up to the house. Tears threatened to fall. She sighted, turning away from the house. "I hate you "' Sakura hissed, walking away.

Sasuke pushed through the front door of the movie theater, Ino hanging on his arm, talking some shit that he really did not care enough about to listen to her rambling. 'Stupid girl cant stop talking!' Sasuke hissed to himself. 'Her ramblings are even worse than Sakura's constant ramblings' Sasuke winced as a pain shot up his arm.
Sasuke's left arm had to be incased in a cast after Itachi broke it. Itachi actually broke his arm like he said he would. 'Stupid ass of a murderer' Sasuke glared at the ground as they kept on walking.
Ino wanted him to claim an assault charge against his brother but Sasuke knew better. He was the one who hit a girl and Itachi came to rescue her so in that matter, Sasuke was the one who would end up in deep shit and Itachi knew it. Sasuke had always hated Itachi and Sakura's close relationship. One could swear that Itachi was dating Sakura and not him and that pissed him off. Maybe that was why Sasuke went to Ino. Ino was one girl that Itachi will not take away from him like he did Sakura or was this all just paranoia? Sasuke sighted, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"That was such a great movie don't you think SasukeKun?" Ino fluttered her long fake plastic eyelashes at him. Her bright blue eyes shone as they walked underneath a street lamp. She was dressed in some skimpy blue skirt that was short enough to show her underwear when ever she bend down. Hell she didn't even have to bend down alot to show her ass. Her upper body was dressed in a tight shirt . How she breathed with that thing on was beyond him. 'At the clothes are easy and fast to get out of when I need them off' Sasuke thought. 'Her body is amazing and so soft'
"hn" Sasuke answered in his oh so intelligent way when he noticed she was looking at him.
"Are you still pissed because your brother broke your arm after seeing you with Sakura? That whore was probably doing every member in that sissy band of theirs" Ino said tucking a blond strand behind her ear.
"If I can recall correctly, we said If you call Sakura a bitch or anything like that we'd hurt you" Ino and Sasuke stopped dead in their tracks. Sasuke knew that voice. It was one that send him chills down his spine every time he heard it but he just couldn't remember who it belonged to.
"Who's there" Sasuke demanded. His dark eyes moving at a rapid pace to find the location where the voice came from with no luck, it was too dark to see anything.
"Just me, Emo Dick" came the nasty reply followed by mocking laughter which made all the hairs at the back of Ino's neck stand up.
"Show yourself!" Sasuke stood before Ino. To everyone it looked like he wanted to protect her but it was the opposite. He stood in front of her so that she would not get in his way when he had to fight. He really did not need a girl to slow him down.
"Oh look Danna he's got balls after all. Looks like Kisame won the beat, yeah" Sasuke's heart rate spiked for a second. He knew that voice and not to mention that stupid 'yeah'.
"Deidara and Sasori" Sasuke swore under his breath. 'No not Deidara, anyone but him' Sasuke thought frustrated. Deidara may look and act like a girl sometimes but looks was definitely deceiving. The blond was one hell of an opponent who fought with all his fury and who didn't back down easily. Sasuke knew that Deidara would fight without any remorse for he hated Sasuke the most out of all Akatsuki.
"Im amazed. The boy is not as dumb as he looks or acts." Came Sasori's unmistakable emotionless voice.
"What do you want" Sasuke hissed. Sasori's emotionless voice was even worse than the blank looks on the boys face. Sasori looked more like a puppet with his lifeless expressions than anyone who ever lived. Itachi at least didn't act like a doll.
"Just dropping a message off from Itachi" Deidara's form emerged from the shadows as he walked into the light from a nearby street lamp. His neatly tied back blond hair fell over his black and red Akatsuki cloak. His one blue eye that was not covered by hair looked so intense as he mockingly looked at Sasuke and Ino. Deidara's hand kept twitching for his pockets. "Danna cant I just blow them both to hell?" Deidara whined. "No one will find the bodies"
"No" The red head walked up next to Deidara. He had on a black leather jacket with a scorpion logo on the front instead of his Akatsuki cloak. Sasori's emotionless eyes looked at Ino for a few seconds before switching to Sasuke. "Itachi told us just to relay a message and not blow them up or anything" Sasori said with his emotionless voice.
"Fine, yeah" Deidara sulked. "I wouldn't have minded going back to juvy" Deidara smirked at Ino's shocked face. Ino was gripping onto Sasuke's arm.
"What do you want?" Ino glared at Deidara and Sasori "Your wasting our time" Ino hissed bravely from behind Sasuke. Deidara and Sasori both raised their eyebrows at the girl, Deidara smirked at the girl. 'What a stupid girl' Sasori and Deidara concluded.
"Shut up whore or I'll let Deidara blow you up" Sasori's cold voice cut through her like an blade made from ice.
"You just came to give me one stupid message from my ass of a brother." Sasuke smirked "And here I thought you were here because I hit Sakura" Sasuke smirked. Deidara and Sasori both looked at him like he just spoke another language.
"What?" Deidara hissed. His hands were shaking from pure fury. "You.hit.Sakura?" Deidara's visible blue eye was wild with rage as he glared at Sasuke with such an icy glare.
"Now we know why Itachi was so mad when he got back from town" Sasori said. His voice changed. It seemed more cold than any voice Sasuke ever heard in his whole life.
"You didn't know...Oh shit" Sasuke swore. 'Great Sasuke you just went and told the most protective people you hit Sakura.' Sasuke thought 'They're going to kill me...Fuck that im not scared of a pansy and his puppet friend' Sasuke argued with himself.
"Let me rephrase, You Hit Sakura?" Deidara asked again. He wanted to make sure that he heard correctly.
"Yeah I slapped the bitch, so what." Sasuke watched Deidara trying to control himself and it amazed him "She deserved it when I raised my hand and - "Sasuke never finished. He was knocked back with amazing force into the wall behind him. Deidara stood where he stood a few seconds ago, glaring with such raw hate it practically frightened Sasuke.
"SasukeKun" Ino screamed. She ran towards Sasuke screaming.
"Itachi only wanted to tell you that you and your Whore must stop hurting Sakura" Sasori's cold voice mocked. He walked over to Sasuke. "But how are you going to hit her when you cant use your arms?" Sasori smirked. He grabbed Sasuke by his neck and banged him against the wall over and over again. Ino tried to stop Sasori but was knocked back by Deidara. She landed hard onto the ground, a whole meter away from Sasuke.
"We will hurt anyone who hurts our blossom" Deidara hissed, advancing on Ino.
Screams echoed thought the night.

Tears streamed down Sakura's face as she walked or limped down the dark streets of Konah. Her body hurt a lot but she kept on walking as tears blurred her vision. Her heart ached so much that she wished they would just have ripped it out instead of beating the shit out of her. Sakura could still taste blood in her mouth as she limped. She wanted to place as much distance between herself and those monsters knows as her parents.
The houses around her changed again. This time the houses looked filled with love and happiness. No bums, druggies or whores stood in these parts of the city. This was the good side of Konah, the place where most of her old friends lived with their parents...Their loving parents.
Sakura stumbled onto grass. She knew where she was. This was the place she usually ended up when something bad happened to her. The sweet smell of the flowers calmed her nerves as Sakura limped past the many flowers. The park always seemed so full of life, love and fun no matter what time of the day it was. During the day it was filled with parents, children, lovers and dogs while at night it was filled with living insects and other small animals that came out during the night.
'Everyone loves treating me like this these days. I though SasukeKun loved me and that made my heart swell so much but he ditched me like an old rotten tomato.' Sakura sniffed as more tears rolled down her face. 'Tenten and Naruto ditched me too' Sakura's vision blurred as tears filled her eyes. 'Cheer up Sakura, al least Temari and Kankuro treats you really nice and Gaara...Gaara makes you feel so warm and ... loved?' Sakura tried to cheer herself up.
She wiped the tears from her face before searching for a place to sit down. All this standing really put a lot of strain on her broken and beaten body. Every where stood lone benches with lights near them, illuminating the bench. Sakura limped towards a bench surrounded in darkness that stood secluded from the rest with no lights near it. She did not feel like being anywhere near any lights, she only wanted to be submerged in the darkness. 'sounds like my life' Sakura thought.
Sakura sat down in the middle of the bench. There was no one else there so she did not need to sit on one side of the bench. This bench was hers. She closed her tired eyes. The bench felt so nice. It was warm, soft…and moving? Her eyes snapped open in panic.
"Having fun sitting on me?" The bench asked in a very sarcastic manner.
"Sorry" Sakura whispered. She really did not thing that anyone would be here. "I'll go sit somewhere else" Sakura stood up from the warm bench which she just realized was a person. I was probably just some homeless bum or something.
"Hey" The person grabbed her wrist as she started to walk away. Sakura's heart rate spiked. 'This person could be a murdered and kill me or worse he could have been send to bring me back home ' "Sakura?" The person asked. The voice sounded so worried and familiar.
"I guess" Sakura muttered. Her body hurt so much that she really did not care who it was anymore. She just wanted to go and sleep in a hole and never wake up ever again. The person pulled her closer so that she could sit down on the bench next to him. Sakura's eyes caught a glimpse of red. "Gaara?" She asked saying the first thing that came to mind.
"yeah" He answered. Sakura didn't feel like looking at him. She knew his life was bad and did not wish to pull him into her life's problems neither did she want him to see what a mess she was. Sakura could feel dried blood on her face.
"Oh" Gaara looked at her as she turned her head from him. From the tone of Sakura's voice and the winching every time he touched her, he knew she was in bad shape. Gaara was never a person to ask questions, he always waited until the person was ready to tell him on their own time rather than he forcing them.
"I came to watch the stairs" He said pointing up to the stars. They shone brightly in the night's sky. "Also to get away from Temari and Kankuro" Gaara added watching Sakura for any reaction.
"Gaara" Sakura whispered.
"Yeah" Gaara asked looking at her. He was really worried about Sakura. Sakura leaned against him with her body. Her arms wrapping around his neck and her mouth by his ear. He smelled blood radiating from her and felt wetness against his cheek where his cheek and hers made contact for a brief moment. 'Blood and Tears?' Gaara felt his heart beating faster against his rib cage. 'What happened to her?'
"Take me away ... please... Take me away from everything" Sakura whispered. Her body went limb in Gaara's hands after she uttered her last word. Gaara picked her up bridal style in his arms. He walked towards his car that stood underneath a street light at the entrance of the park. After his therapy session Gaara picked up his car from a garage that Akatsuki owned. He wanted them to put on some decals to make it fit his personality. The car was the new Porsche Gemballa Mirage GT. It was a black car with a huge love Kanji on the hood. Crimson blood trails dripped from the hood to the sides, making it look like he hit someone. Luckily for Gaara, Sasori was at the garage when he arrived so he just gave Sasori his bike keys so that he can take the car without worrying about his bike.
Gaara walked up to his car. He felt a sudden urge to look down when he reached the light and he wished never did. As his eyes trailed on Sakura's face he felt his heart tugging in his chest. Sakura's face was covered in bruises, dirt and dried blood. Her lip was busted open with dried blood sticking to them. Her arm that swayed limply at her side were black and blue with various bruises. Some of those bruises were bleeding badly. Sakura's clothes were torn and dusty just like her pale skin that looked even paler than usual.
Gaara held her in one arm when he opened his car door. He gently laid Sakura down in the passengers seat of his car lastly he bucked her in with the seat belt so that she will remain safe. Gaara closed the door, making sure none of her limbs got in the way. Gaara climbed into his own side of the car, casting one more look at Sakura he drove off to his home. 'Temari will know what to do' Gaara thought.
When Gaara arrived at the Sabaku mansion, he parked his car in a special designed garage. The garage was built to be under the house. where all the expensive cars were suppose to be kept by rich people who probably owned the house before they did. Gaara scooped the broken and bruised Sakura into his arm again. She had her eyes closed when he took a glimpse at her. He was currently pushing through the garage door to the kitchen.
"Temari?" Gaara called. No one answered him "Kankuro?" His eyes scanned the living room to find no one in sight. 'Guess they went out" Gaara thought. He decided that he would be the one to take care of Sakura. He carried Sakura to the white and gold guest bathroom. The bathroom was big and fancy just like the expansive mansion they lived in. The floor tiles were a dusty gold color while the wall tiles were pearly white. The bathtub, sink and toilet were also white like the walls. The sink was designed to be built into a dusty gold marble counter. A long mirror was build behind the counter. The sides of the counter were covered with tiles while the front had gold colored doors. Gaara placed Sakura onto the counter, next to the sink.
"Gaara" Sakura muttered, opening her eyes to look at the red head. When his wonderful body heat left her, she felt so cold and empty without his heat. Gaara took her arms in his hands to examine them. He nodded after a few seconds.
"We need to clean your wounds Sakura or they will get infected" Gaara replied. He knelt down before the counter to look through the contents of the build in cupboard under the sink. "Your arms aren't broken so we just need to wrap them."
"I need a bath first, Gaara" Sakura whispered looking up at him with her sad green orbs. She wanted to get all the blood and dirt from her body. It reminded her too much of the house she went to a few hours ago. "You can clean up the wounds after I get all this dirt and blood from my body" She added. Gaara stared at her for a few seconds like he was contemplating on her request.
"Fine then." Gaara pulled a red bag from under the sink. A white cross was marked on the top of the bag with the words 'first aid' written underneath the cross in white. He placed the bag next to Sakura on the counter before walking over to the big, round bath tub. Gaara opened the warm and cold water taps and made sure the temperature was neither scolding nor icy. "You take a bath...and get cleaned up "Gaara scratched the back of his head. He was really not sure what to do. It was not everyday that Gaara helped anyone. 'Damn where's Temari when you need her' Gaara thought frustrated. "I'll bring you some fitting clothes...ok?" He asked uncertain.
"Sure that sounds like a plan" Sakura send him a small smile. Her lip hurt too much to give anything more than just the small smile. She knew that Gaara did not really know what to do. Gaara nodded at her and helped her from the sink.
"I'll get you some pain killers for your pain" Gaara walked towards the bathroom door. He grabbed the door knob to close the door behind him. Before the door fully closed behind him he heard her soft 'Thank you' form inside the bathroom. "I'll be right back" Gaara called. He closed the door with a click. Making sure the door was closed; he went to the kitchen to get her some pain killers.
Sakura watched the door close behind Gaara. She whispered him a soft 'Thank you' before he fully closed the door. She heard him reply that he will be right back. Sakura sat on the edge of the bathtub; she listened to his fading footsteps as he walked away from the bathroom door. 'I need to get out of these clothes' Sakura took a hold off her shirt and tried to pull it over her head but pain shot through her whole body before she could pull them off. Her arms felt so heavy and still that it was almost impossible for her to lift them higher than her shoulders. Sakura kicked off her shoes. It was the only thing she could get out of in her current state without feeling any pain.
She raised her hands to her face. "I smell like them "Sakura said slowly. Without thinking she slipped into the bathtub with her clothes still on her body. Sakura gasped as the heat from the water assaulted her pained body making the wounds burn and sting. Tears formed in her eyes. Her body hurt so much. "Why me?" Sakura cried. Tears fell from her eyes and rolled over her cheeks. "Why do I have to feel all this pain? What did I ever do to deserve all of this" Sakura covered her face with her hands as she sobbed.
"Sakura?" Gaara knocked on the bathroom door. He had a pair of his loose fitting black boxers and a normal red T-shirt in his hands. He would have asked Temari to borrow some of her clothes but she was not at home so he decided to use some of his own clothes. In the Sabaku household there was a rule that no one may enter another's room without their permission. "Hey Sakura" Gaara knocked onto the door again. He pressed his ear against the door. He heard sobbing coming from the inside of the bathroom. Fearing for her safety, Gaara opened the door and took a small peek inside. He saw Sakura sitting in the bathtub, fully clothed. Her face was in her hands. Her shoulders shook as she sobbed in her hands.
"Sakura" Gaara placed the clothes onto the counter. Gaara walked over to the bathtub where the sobbing Sakura still cried. He knelt in front of the bathtub. Slowly Gaara took her right hand into his hands. "Sakura, I brought you some clothes of mine that you can wear. You have to finish bathing then put them on. I don't want you to fall ill"
"Gaara, it hurts to take my clothes off. Please help me" Sakura looked up at Gaara. Tears still rolled over her cheeks. Some of the dried blood on her face mixed with the tears making the crystal clean tears turn into bloody red tears that trailed down her face.
Gaara stared at the sobbing girl in front of him. "Sure" Gaara nodded. He wanted to help Sakura no matter what. He could not bare to see her cry. It pained his heart too much to see her in the state she was currently in. Gaara reached for Sakura's shirt. He removed it slowly and with so much caution. Sakura had to keep her hands in front of her while Gaara tugged on it from the back. He pushed the shirt up so that he could pull it over her head. Lastly he pulled the remaining shirt from her bruised arms. Sakura tugged on her pants in order to remove them from her body also. Gaara helped her pull them from her legs. Black and blue bruises were visible on her semi naked pale legs after Gaara removed them. He took both her shirt and her pants in his arms. Walking over to the sink, Gaara squeezed them to remove the water from them as much as possible before he hung them over the shower's glass door. Gaara walked over to Sakura and knelt in front of her. She sat in the bathtub with only her underwear on to cover her body. Her pale skins were covered in dirt, blood and dark bruises. "Ill just wait outside for you to finish" Sakura grabbed his arm as he started to stand up.
"Please don't leave me. " Sakura held his harm with her tint hands "It hurts too much to move" she sobbed "I don't want this sent on me. It reminds me of what happened" Tears rolled over her cheeks. Gaara's heart tightened in his chest as he watched her.
"I wont ever leave" Gaara whispered at the sobbing girl. He kicked off his shoes and removed his shirt in case they were to get soaked when he washed her. Sitting back down next to the tub, Gaara reached for a bar of vanilla scented soap and a wash cloth. He washed her arms, shoulder, back and legs softly. He did not want to hurt her more than she was already hurting. Gaara rinsed off her soapy body with the wash cloth after he applied soap to it. Her skin looked even paler without all the dirt and blood that covered it not a moment ago. Gaara washed her bloody pink locks last. "There" Gaara smiled after he cleaned her. "You smell like vanilla"
"Gaara" Sakura whispered. She leaned out of the bathtub winching as she hugged his neck.
"You will hurt yourself" Gaara whispered.
"I don't care" Sakura sobbed. "I need to feel your body heat"
"Then I'll help you" Gaara removed her arms from his neck. He climbed into the bathtub behind Sakura. Sakura grabbed his hands and pulled them around her. Her head fell back onto his chest.
"Thank you for being my friend." Sakura whispered. She felt so safe and warm in Gaara's arms. His heart beat was so melodic in her ears. She closed her sore eyes. It didn't take a full minute before she fell asleep. Gaara noticed her breathing pattern changed and knew immediately that she was asleep. Not wishing to disturb her, he stayed in the bathtub holding onto her as she slept.
"Your welcome" Gaara whispered. 'Your my special friend and I'll always protect you' Gaara thought smiling down at the girl sleeping in his arms
