The last time in Paradox, two Sand Jounins were here to urge Gaara to come back to the village with them and to forget Hinata forever. What will he do now?


Chapter 3

Will I Stay?

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN FORGET THIS WOMAN AND HAVE AS MANY WOMEN AS YOU WANT ONCE YOU GET BACK? THIS'S SICK I TELL YA! THIS IS JUST SICK!" Naruto scolded Gaara.

Hinata could only watch and shed her tears. Her problem was yet to begin.

"Gaara…" she calls out to him.

"Sorry, but………" Everyone paused and silence fills the room.

Naruto grabbed him by his collar and shove him against the wall while Gaara jerked in pain. Sasuke tries to hold back the enraged Naruto and the two sand shinobi join in and try to assist Sasuke to hold back Naruto.

"WHY YOU LITTLE SON OF A BITCH! How can you do something like this? Hinata has suffered a lot for you and now you want to leave her because she is some kind of a black memory of yours? What about your son?"

Gaara looks down at Naruto and let out a sigh and then he chuckled lightly. "Naruto, I didn't say I was going away."

Everyone stared at him and let out a questioned look.

"Then, why did you say sorry?" Naruto cocked his head and let Gaara go. As soon as Gaara landed safely on the ground, he punches Naruto.

"GAARA! YAMETE KUDASAI!" Hinata shouted at him.

"It's alright, Hinata. Gaara and I are just giving each other a 'friendship sign.'" Naruto smiled while holding on to his aching stomach.

"Who created this stupid thing anyway?" Sasuke pouted his lip and asked.

"It was this Kitsune. He punched me last time accidentally and claims that it was a 'friendship sign.' He thought I'm too stupid to know," Gaara explained and walks over to Hinata.

"Hey, it's really a 'friendship sign' you know?" Naruto lied.

"Hinata, I'll stay here with you." Gaara then looks at the two sand Jounin. "As for you two, tell the Lord that I quit. You can find someone more suitable."

"But Kazekage-sama, who will be more suitable?"

"Well, I guess you'll have to choose the first runner up." He smiled to them and whispers something to them.

Sasuke and Naruto saw it and whisper to each other about the first time they saw him smiling.

"Yes, Gaara-sama. Right away." With that, the two shinobi disappeared in a whirl of wind.

The room was once silence again. Sasuke nudged Naruto, telling him that this is a time where Gaara and Hinata should be alone. Naruto nodded and they walk out together closing the door behind them.

Hinata looks up at her man. She was happy that he stays with her. But, did he really mean it? She couldn't care less. She was just happy to see him here with her again.

"Gaara, I love you so much. You don't know what I have been through."

"I love you too Hinata. I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you at a time where you needed me most. I'm so sorry." Gaara hugged her as passionate as he can to make her feel safe and warm in the inside. He looks at her again as he felt his cloth getting wet. Hinata was crying on his chest. It made Gaara cried as well to see her in such pain.

I will stay with you now and forever. I promise I'llbe a good father to our child, Hinata. I'll promise that I'll never leave you again. I love you so much...
