Hmm I might make 2 chapters but they are going to be short. I MIGHT! You know one for today and one for Christmas day. (nods) Or I should do an extra scene with Gaara and Hotaru. Gah never mind. I'm just rambling nonsense again.
His eyes were soulless. No heart in his blindness. He should no sympathy to others even if he tried.
His eyelashes were long dark blue stems that would glitter if in a full moon. His skin of white cream and smooth.
He was like angel.
Hinata, Sakura and TenTen blushed. "He's beautiful." Sakura mumbled, making Sasuke look at her weirdly.
Ezekiel continued to smile at Gaara, his blank eyes as to devour his gleaming blue-green ones.
Gaara felt colder upon seeing the figure, a small tingle crept down his back which only ignited a flare of anger, "Humph." He just replied.
Ezekiel had super long hair, so long it probably touched the floor. No one would know. Not yet. His white hair disappeared beneath his robe.
TenTen gazed, "His eyes are so-"
Neji finally looked up, he narrowed his eyes at him then suddenly his Byakugan activated. Short veins pulsed on the sides of his face. Impossible. He couldn't see the chakra of either one. Hotaru if he focused but Ezekiel was hard.
Ezekiel didn't like to be studied and walked over to the girls. He softly held up their hands and bowed in respect, kissing the middle by the wrist. "Such exquisite ladies at my existence. I am most honored." He stopped at Hinata and raised his eyes, "Very… honored."
And she blushed even more, taking a step back to Naruto. "U-um.. Thank you sir…" Isn't he blind?
Naruto pulled Hinata close to him by her waist, "They're all taken buster!"
Hotaru whacked him on the head, "Stop it!"
Neji couldn't relax. He didn't mind Ezekiel swooning the girls with his charm. He didn't even care. (His confident for himself is over the top. Duh.) But something about this guy. "Will you be accompanying us at the tarn this week?"
Naruto scratched his head, "The what? Is that a good place to eat?"
Neji ignored him, waiting for the reply of the pale Ezekiel.
"If consent before my sister." He looked at her.
Hotaru raised an eyebrow, "M-me?" Given by the look in his eyes, that meant a yes. So it wasn't her decision. It was still his, "Oh yeah. Whatever. We'll go."
"Consent?" Naruto had a hard time even keeping up with the conversation. Hinata giggled.
Neji scoffed at him, "Foolish baka Naruto. Go read the dictionary."
"Dic-tion… ary?"
"Ok wait a minute… first you hang up on me then you EXPECT ME TO DO YOU A FAVOR!"
Gaara shook his head, "Temari…" He was getting annoyed with her. Did she forget he could still easily kill her? Just because he was being 'nice' didn't mean he couldn't kill anymore. No.. Bad thoughts… "Temari its just two people. So do it."
"OK GAARA! THAT'S IT! YOU'RE GROUNDED!"
Gaara raised an eyebrow, "Excuse me?"
"YOU HEARD ME!"
"Temari.." Gaara said again, this time in a low growl. He was pissed off now, it wasn't like he wasn't before. Ezekiel made sure of that. "You do not tell me what to do.."
Temari seemed to calm but she didn't back down, "Well, you're living in my house so-"
"I wonder what your head looks like backwards?" Is what he wanted to say. Stop it! Every now and then Gaara would have an urge to kill but somehow he controlled himself, he sighed out to himself then closed his eyes, "Its just for a couple days. Its for Hota-"
"Hotaru? The girl you like! YES OF COURSE!… Wait a minute… Is she from leaf village?"
Gaara rose his eyes halfway, "What has that got to-"
The phone was suddenly snatched away from him. Quick, painless and smooth. "I assure you my lady, we are none from Leaf Village."
"Who the hell is this? Put Gaara back on this-"
"Language my lady."
"I can say whatever the hell I want! Put Gaara ba-"
"Your voice sounds of the wind. You are much too lovely, I'm sure, to be glaring through the phone right now at someone you do not know."
"Fine! Who is this anyway?"
"I am Ezekiel."
Gaara rolled his eyes. If I hear him say that one more time.. I swear I will KILL HIM.
Ezekiel's eyes glanced at him and smiled, "Brother of Hotaru. Tell me Tamari." His attention went back to the phone. As if he was facing her in person, "You are from the Sand Village Genin correct?"
"Y-yeah.."
Ezekiel lulled his eyes and turned his back to Gaara. Gaara could hear him speaking softly but he couldn't quite understand. Ezekiel then turned back around, graceful and sophisticated,he hung the phone up with a soft click, "She said yes." He said, also soft. Then his eyes glowered down, "Gaara…"
Gaara crossed his arms, anger rising from his own name, "What?" He managed to say that calm.
Ezekiel smirked, "Nothing. I just wanted to say your name." He straightened, stood for awhile then turned to head toward Hotaru. He closed his eyes and flipped his hood back on, "We will be waiting. Gaara."
Gaara narrowed his eyes as Ezekiel walked off, What the hell just happened here? Is he gonna have a fucking orgy cause of my name?
(Oh my..)
Hotaru eyed the table then nervously took a salt shaker and started twirling it around.
Ezekiel sat down, "Pathetic." He seemed to stare straight ahead.
She kept her head down, glancing toward him. What are you planning? She tried her best for him not to hear. But he did.
Neji, who was pulling Hinata with him, took a seat across from Hotaru and Ezekiel, "May we join?"
Hotaru nodded, smiling a grin, "Hey where the others?"
"Well TenTen and Sakura has a part time job with Ino. Umm Naruto promised Sensei he would clean something… uhh"
"And Sasuke is right here." Sasuke came up behind, answering for Hinata.
She blushed, "Oh yeah."
Sasuke glanced at Gaara, who was glaring at Ezekiel,he caught a look at him, We want to go too..
Gaara, with a slight nod, understood. "Lets go." He said, "Its almost sunset and a sand storm will be heading."
They all stood.
Hotaru waited till Ezekiel stood then she followed. (Only Gaara and Sasuke noticed this.)
About 30 minutes into walking, Gaara stopped and waited till Hotaru was next to him. He pulled her up with a sharp jerk and was, once again, leading the way.
"H-hey!" She glanced back nervously at Ezekiel.
Although no one could see his face, cause of the large hood, she sensed his patience was beginning to crumble. "Damn Gaara. You could've just asked."
He looked straight ahead and continued walking, "I know you Hotaru. You would've said no."
Hotaru frowned, "Whats up your butt?"
Gaara glared down at her, "Can it Hotaru. You haven't talked to me since we saw each other."
"I'm.." She looked away, a little embarrassed, "at loss for words.." A small blush rose up from her neck.
Gaara gulped and looked away, he was officially turned on. Damn it..
"What?" She heard his thoughts, "Damn what?"
"Nothing." He breathed out, You were just turning me on. Nothing much. He smiled, "How have you been Hotaru?"
Hotaru looked at him in surprise, "Me? Shouldn't I be asking you that?"
"You seem.." He softened his look, "Different."
She chuckled, "Well my hair IS white. And my eyes-"
"Are beautiful." He looked ahead, seeing where they were, "Shows who you really are. I'm glad I got to see you again Hotaru. I really do… I missed you." And I still do…. You're right here… but I can't feel you..
"Missed…me?" He…was thinking.. About me…Hotaru felt as if she would cry.. "I mi-"
"Hotaru."
She straightened and tensed. "I uh.. I need to go back to my brother. I don't want him to feel uncomfortable." Before she headed to her brother he gripped her arm.
"No not yet. What were you going to say?"
"W-wha…"
"Hotaru.. Do not test my patience.."
She jerked away, frightened and wide eyed. "Uh. I-I'll talk to you later." She went past Neji, Hinata and Sasuke and walked to her brother. (Who was behind them.)
Sasuke went by Gaara.
Gaara growled to himself, "You sense it too?"
"Oh yeah." Sasuke glanced back, "I have an urge to kill… for no reason.. And my Sharingan is acting up for some reason.."
"And Neji?"
"He said he didn't activate his Byakugan himself. It took control."
"MMmm.." Gaara narrowed his eyes, "Well...No doubt about it… I want to kick that Albinos ass."
The kicking of the Albinos ass is dedicated to BLaCkMOonSLavE. Lol she made me laugh so hard when she wrote that to me.
Err anyway! Another good Gaara story would be "So this is love." By Gaara-Kaibutsu. I defiantly recommend it!
Oh yeah. I did a bonus chapter cause I missed a day of writing. Its about Hotaru's and Ezekiel's past. (Ezekiel was not always blind you know.)
