A/N: I'm so stuck XD This fic didn't really have a plot from the start. It's probably going to end sometime soon. I just have a few more loose ends to tie up and stuff.

I'm glad everyone liked the NejixDeidara pairing! I just thought it would be hot 8D

Disclaimer: Nope. Not mine.

Welcome to Life Chapter 11 – Life is Good GAARA POV

Neji and Deidara got caught. I'm physic. Apparently a teacher walked in on them with Neji's hand down Deidara's pants. I personally think she handled the situation very well. Apart from a minor nosebleed, she was extremely composed.

Neji's complaining about the punishment at our "gang's" table in the dinner hall.

"An hours detention, a fucking hour!"

"It could've been worse, yeah."

"Dei-Dei's right!" Haku gushes from Zabuza's lap. Everyone seems to have taken a liking to Deidara already.

"I've only just met you and you've already given me a dodgy nickname?"

"Don't worry," I console, "it's happened to all of us."

"Damn straight, Gaa-Gaa!"

I groan and fall against Sasuke. He's recently taken up sitting with us, much to the disappointment of the popular kids.

"Are you sure you want to sit here?" I whisper into his ear.

"Trust me," he whispers back, "it's a hell of a lot more interesting than where I used to sit."

He gestures over to where the popular people are sitting, people like Kabuto, Naruto, Ino and Kiba.

"All they do is bitch about other kids behind their backs."

"Sounds like fun."

He snorts and gropes my thigh discretely with one hand. I blush but don't move it away.

Sakura's been quiet all lunch time and I'm really worried. What if she truly hates me? She said she didn't mind about Sasuke! Was she lying, or was she just shocked when she found that we were actually together?

Sasuke's hand is creeping higher…I hope he's not planning on doing this here. I refuse to have sex in my goddamn school canteen.

Anyway, about Sakura-

"DEI-DEI STOP MOLESTING NEJI!"

I think I should just explain everything-

"ONLY IF SASUKE STOPS RAPING GAARA, YEAH!"

I should take her aside sometime and-

"YOU CAN'T RAPE THE WILLING!"

Oh dear God. It's impossible to think when you're sitting on this table! I stand up, effectively preventing Sasuke from 'raping' me as Deidara so kindly put it, grab Sakura's arm and walk out of the canteen. I pull Sakura all the way outside to the tree.

"Sakura, we need to talk."

"Don't give me the silent treatment."

"Pleeeease!"

"Don't whine Gaara, it makes you seem more pathetic than you really are."

Hmm, I can't quite work it out. Was that a compliment or not?

"Uh, yeah, whatever."

"Get to the point."

"I told you about, you know-"

"Yeah-"

"And um, it's all, like er.."

"Huh? Oh yeah, I think I um, yep."

It's emotional breakdown time.

"Sakura I'm really sorry! I know you've always liked Sasuke!"

"No! Gaara it's my fault! I got jealous even though you'd told me!"

We're hugging on the floor now and Sakura's crying.

"I'm sorry for everything!"

"I'm sorry too!"

"Oh for the love of- get up." Neji suddenly appears behind us. He nudges me in the side with his foot. Sakura releases me from her grip and throws herself at Neji.

"I'm sorry for everything I've ever done to you Neji!"

Things can get so emotional…

"Get off me!"

…until Neji ruins it that is.

TIMECHANGEBECAUSEICAN!

I've made things up with Sakura, and I'm feeling great. I have good friends, a boyfriend, two great siblings and life is good!

Yeah, I'm still slightly emotional from earlier. Sue me.

I'm sitting outside on a bench. It's after school and I'm waiting for Neji. He usually gives me a ride home on a Thursday. I'm not sure why, it's just become tradition. He's 20 minutes late and I'm bored. I let my head fall backwards against the wall with a smack and sigh. He better not be getting it on with Deidara somewhere.

"Yo Gaara."

I open an eye.

"Hi Sasuke."

"What are you still doing here?"

"I'm waiting for Neji."

He looks at me quizzically, "you do know he has that hour detention right?"

"Oh bloody fucking hell!"

He laughs and holds a hand out to me.

"Come on, I'll give you a ride home."

I take the hand and he leads me to his car. My nose is itchy. One hand is clutching my bag, the other is holding Sasuke's. Oh dear, I have a dilemma. At this point, any normal person would probably just drop their boyfriend's hand and itch their nose, but I, under no circumstances, am normal. I bring the hand holding Sasuke's up to my nose and use my knuckles to itch my nose. Sasuke stops and turns around slowly, one eyebrow raised. I give a lame apologetic smile and carry on towards the car.

He unlocks it and climbs in. As I sink into the soft seat he turns to look at me.

"Sooo, we're that far on in the relationship that you let me assist you in picking your nose, yet I can't feel you up?"

"Oh shut up, smartarse."

He grins and starts the car.

AAAANDANOTHERTIMECHANGE!

We're outside my house, but I don't wanna get out of the car yet, so I'm not going to. I'd pick Sasuke over Dad any day.

Plus I've not had any real action in a while.

Sasuke's looking at me like he's waiting for me to get out. Tough crap boy-o.

I crawl over the gear stick and straddle his lap. Sasuke looks mildly surprised, but I don't think he's about to complain. He pulls me further into his lap and brings one hand to my face. I lean further forwards and our lips connect. His free hand moves down to my arse. I lick Sasuke's lips and he gladly parts them, allowing me to deepen the kiss.

After pulling away for air I move straight back in, this time placing gentle kisses down his neck, starting at his ear and ending at the collar bone, which I nip and suck. Sasuke groans, grinding our hips together and I bite down slightly harder.

There's a crash.

"OH MY GOD GAARA!" Kankuro's dropped the bin lid and is hiding behind his hands.

Whoops.

I kiss Sasuke one last time before climbing out of the car and walking casually into the house.

I think I get extra points in life for mentally scarring my brother, right?

A/N: -sigh- The next chapter will probably be the last. I might try a sex scene, the last one I tried when disastrously wrong.

Reviiiiiew pleeeeeeeease?
