A/N: Can someone, please, tell me what went through my head when I wrote this? I was thinking to write something with a sad Gaara and this just made its way out...
Reviews will be appreciated. A lot.
Gaara hurt. A lot. It wasn't the same pain as when you cut yourself, when the blood flooded over the pale skin. That pain went away. This pain wouldn't, though. Gaara had tried, in so many ways had he tried to make the pain go away. But it just wouldn't go away. The pain made him cry, silently in the night when no one was there to see his tears.
His heart gave a painful twitch as a person entered the training ground. The other wouldn't see Gaara where he sat hidden on a branch in the tree, but Gaara was still worried that the dark eyes would look around and spot him.
The jade green eyes of the red-head followed every moment the other did, the kicks, the punches in the thin air. All the determination to get better, the power the beast already possessed mesmerized Gaara and he couldn't stop watching.
He had spent many days just watching, without the other knowing he was there. The hurt in his heart got both better and worse as he watched. He longed to jump down from the branch and talk to the other teen, but he wouldn't. He just sat there, silently watching as the sun changed, from morning to midday to night, and when the other teen left he did too. And the morning after he sat there, once again, and the other came and Gaara watched in silence.
The cloud over them where dark grey and Gaara knew that it would start to rain soon, but he also knew that not even rain would stop the creature beneath him. Nor would it stop Gaara from watching. He had sat there through storms and heat; nothing could take him away from this.
"Lee-kun!" a sudden voice said.
Both Gaara's head and Lee's snapped up to look at the voice, Lee with a small smile and Gaara with a frown. A pink-haired girl with green eyes smiled at Lee as he straightened up and walked up to her.
"I don't understand why you always train" she said. "You're already one of the best."
Lee rolled his eyes and Gaara glared at the pink-haired girl. She had been coming here a lot lately. Gaara loathed her. Everything about her. He hated how she made Lee smile in that way. No one should make Lee smile like that, no one but Gaara.
"It will start to rain soon, why can't you just skip training today?" she said and tilted her head a bit to the side. "Please? For me?"
Lee chuckled and watched around in the clearing.
"Just for today?" he said and she nodded hopefully.
"Okay, then" he said and she turned and left.
He stayed, just a little longer, then turned around and ran up to the girl. He placed his arm over her shoulders and she snuggled closer to him. Gaara watched as they left and it took all his strength not to run after them and kill that bitch for ever touching something that belonged to him.
The rain started to fall and mixed with the tears that ran from a pair of jade green eyes.
