CHAPTER TWO

They both followed behind Temari and Kankuro to the hotel, shivering and hand in hand. Once there, Temari ordered them to take warm showers and then meet them down at a diner down the block.

(GAARA P.O.V.)

"Gaara," Temari announced, "Kankuro and I are going to the diner now. You and Sasuke meet us there when you guys are done with your showers, okay?"

I nodded and waited 30 seconds before unveiling my plan. I snuck into the bathroom; Sasuke was already in the shower. I saw a shadowed image of him through the curtain. He was just standing there with his head hanging low. I quietly undressed and got ready to step in the shower with my boyfriend.

Slipping inside, Sasuke lifted his head sharply and I laid a soft kiss on his pink lips. I moved him so his back was up against the wall and started to kiss and nip at his pale neck and shoulders. Sasuke straddled my hips and ground his hips into mine. I let out a soft moan. Sasuke pressed his lips upon mine and started to slip his tongue into my mouth. I allowed admission and soon slid my tongue into his warm cavern.

(NORMAL P.O.V.)

Gaara stepped back and rested against the other shower wall. Sasuke stepped towards him and kissed him gently before running a finger along the red head's organ, making it erect. Gaara pushed his boyfriend away.

"Don't do that," commanded Gaara, "I-I…I'm not ready for that…yet."

"Alright, I won't. I'm sorry. I thought you were ready." Sasuke lathered some shampoo into Gaara's hair.

"Thanks for understanding. You mean so much to me."

They finished their shower and quickly dried off. Gaara lent Sasuke some of his clothes. They were a tiny bit small.

"Come on, we have to meet Temari and Kankuro and a diner."

They walked to the diner and met up with Gaara's siblings.

"Pull up a chair you guys," suggested Temari, "What took you two? We had to hold off the waitress twice. I didn't think that you two took such long showers. Maybe you should have showered together."

Gaara lowered his head to try and hide his blush. Sasuke lifted the blushing teen's chin and turned it so he stared straight into lovely jade eyes.

"Don't hide that blush from me," Sasuke kissed Gaara's soft lips, "Why, you're simply adorable when you blush!"

Kankuro and Temari leaned towards each other and in unison said, "Awww…"

Gaara blushed even brighter. The rest of their lunch went well except that Gaara's siblings argued about Sasuke's idea of letting Gaara stay with him for the time being. Kankuro didn't agree and Temari thought it was a good idea. Gaara ended the argument by saying that he will be staying at Sasuke's. Soon they all finished their lunches and headed back to the hotel where Gaara packed up his duffle bag and followed Sasuke out the door.

"Wait! I forgot to give you something!" shouted Temari as she ran out the door after them, carrying a medium sized, white rectangular box. She handed the box to Sasuke. "Now Gaara, Sasuke knows what's inside the box and when he tells you to open it, you have to obey what he says."

Temari walked back into the hotel.

"Can you please tell me what's inside that box?" asked Gaara.

"Nope, sorry, but you'll figure out what's inside soon enough."

Gaara pouted all the way back to Sasuke's house. The rest of the night was spent with Gaara in the guestroom reading and Sasuke in the living room craving a figure of Gaara out of a piece of wood with a kunai and then painting it. Sasuke fell asleep on the floor and Gaara on his bed with his pale face plastered to his book.

Time Change: the next night

Sasuke was putting the fishing touches on his wooden doll and Gaara was back in the guestroom, reading. The raven haired teen glanced at the clock on the wall. It read half past nine. Putting the finished manikin on the coffee table, he walked upstairs, and stood in the doorway of the guestroom. Gaara looked up from his book and at Sasuke.

"Gaara…It's time to find out what's inside that box. Take it into the bathroom, okay?"

"Ugh…fine." Gaara grumpily picked the box up off the floor and walked past Sasuke and into the bathroom. He shut the door hard. Sasuke walked into his own room and changed outfits. He moved back to standing outside the bathroom door.

(GAARA P.O.V.)

Once inside the bathroom, I placed the white box on the counter and lifted the top off.

"What? Temari must be crazy! Sasuke!"

"Yeah?"

"Must I wear this?" I yelled.

"Yep. If you need anything, I'll be right outside the door."

I stripped myself of all my clothes except for his black boxers. Pulling out the first item in the first item inside the box, I pulled it over my head. It was a silky black tank top that showed a little bit of my stomach. Next in the box was a pair of black, leather like pants. The rest of my outfit consisted of a pair of dark purple armbands with black stripes that went from my wrists and coming short of my elbows and matching studded bracelets and necklace.

I looked in the mirror. I had to admit, I didn't look too bad. I opened the bathroom door and noticed my boyfriend had changed outfits as well. My jaw dropped, he was wearing a clingy dark blue t-shirt and a pair of black pants. He wore a studded bracelet on his right wrist and a black wrist band on his other.

"You like it?" Sasuke asked me.

"You're a hottie!"

"Yes, I knew that already. You on the other hand, you are sexy beyond reason! The way your clothes hug your shapely body…mmm…" Sasuke licked his lips, "Come on, we are going out tonight!"

(NORMAL P.O.V.)

Gaara and Sasuke walked down a couple blocks and stopped in front of a building with loud music coming from inside.

"Where are we Sasuke?"

"At a party! Naruto lives here and he throws a party once a month on a Saturday. He told me that I have permanent access and that I can bring a guest anytime. Now come on! I promise you'll have fun!"
