Hey peeps who read this fic, I'm apologizing for all of the stupid endings on all my chapters, so I will put more cliff hangers and I will no longer tell my update dates because I always seem to get caught up in something so I am not saying anything anymore.
Jonin610: sry for the overreaction but it is my first fic with Gaara being the main point of view. Thanks for reviewing though, I will try and tone it down next time I make a Gaara fic.
Forcystus: Thanks for reviewing, I will proofread and spell-check this time. Thank you for your advice and keep reviewing.
YamiKitsuneKami: Thanks, I can't believe I only have 3 reviews as well. I guess I have to kick it up a notch I guess ;) so yea…. Thanks and Please review next time.
As I have said in previous chapters PLEASE review! Only 3 reviews in 3 chapters? Come on show me some love! Ok, on with the story.
Gaara sat in his room. He felt strange; he had never really been popular before. He really felt anxious to get to school. It was 6 in the morning, he had a half an hour until he woke everyone up and the did the routine: Get up, pancakes, pile in the car, go to school, practice, home again, drink or do stupid stuff, and, finally, watch T.V. until 6: 30 in the morning. Just then he heard a noise.
"Gaara are you up?" It was Matty, he seemed tired.
"Yea, what's up, man?"
"Nothing, I just got up. So can I chill in here?"
"Yea, of course, you never have to ask that."
"I know, but I like to be polite. So you can control sand?"
"Yea, it is pretty sweet."
Matty sat down on Gaara's big green bed. He was wearing a Taking Back Sunday shirt and checkered pajama pants.
"Ew, ha-ha, you like Taking Back Sunday?"
"Eh, not really it's just a cool shirt I think. Some of their shit is ok."
"So you like any girls in school?"
"Maybe, So what do you think about that pink haired girl?" Matty asked.
"Oh, she's funny. Um, she's smart; she's a great soccer player, she's never even made out with a guy, she used to be in love with Sasuke but after she saw him with Ino last night it broke her heart." Gaara explained. Matty seemed sad.
"I like her." Matty said blushing.
"Really? I would never have guessed." Gaara said sarcastically.
"Fuck you." Matty said snickering.
"Well, whatever. Hey, I have a good idea!" Gaara said enthusiastically.
"What?"
"There is a carnival in town this weekend, why don't you ask Sakura there?"
"Oh, god no. I barely know her." Matty said blushing furiously.
"Well, now is the time."
"I mean, I guess I could." Matty said.
"Good, you'll ask her today."
"What? No that's too soon, I need time to prepare." Matty exclaimed.
"No you don't, just do it today so you won't be nervous later."
"Fine." As he said the last statement, Rage against the Machine came on the radio blaring.
"Oh, I have to get a new alarm clock." Gaara explained.
"Gaara turn your fucking alarm clock off!" Kankuro screamed. Gaara thought he would toy with him so he put it on maximum volume. Soon enough there were 2 pairs of footsteps trampling to the door.
"Gaara you better turn it off or else!"
"Or else what?" Gaara said with ferocity.
"Erm, I guess I will take away your T.V.!" Temari said, sounding like someone's mother.
"You wouldn't dare." Gaara said staring her down..
"Oh, I would."
"Hn. Fine I'll turn it off." Soon enough Aiko was up.
"Hey what's going on?" She asked. Everyone had blank expressions.
"You didn't hear that?" Gaara asked.
"No, what?" Everyone was puzzled but just brushed it off.
"Uh, people are we eating breakfast?" Temari asked noting it was 20 minutes until they leave.
"Oh, shit. Ok, I'll be right back; I have to take a shower." Matty said.
"Hey are we all going to the carnival tonight?" Temari asked.
"Well I think all of us are going, but we may all stray away, Matty is asking Sakura, so if you want to stay together without Matty, its cool." Gaara explained.
"Well I have a date with Neji, so I will be happy, and I might stray from the flock." Temari said.
"So Aiko, do you want to go with me?"
"Oh, sorry Gaara I am going to try and go with Sasuke. He is so cute! But I will hang with you after if you don't mind."
"Oh, ok that's fine." Gaara felt horrible, the familiar pain in his chest from when he was a child was back again. Everyone quietly finished breakfast and it was time to go. Gaara didn't speak for the whole ride. And when they got to school, they had a big banner congratulating the football team, and the girl's volleyball team for winning the first game in the season.
When Gaara walked out of the car, he was in a barrage of hugs and arms, school newspaper journalists asked him questions, and even the teachers were getting in on it. Gaara felt a little bit better, but he still had Sasuke in the back of his mind. And he realized he would be spending the night with Kankuro. Gaara noticed no one congratulating Matty, he seemed quite down.
"Hey, Matty, you ok?"
"Yea, sorry, I'm zoning out."
Gaara realized he was zoning out on Sakura.
"Matty, go over there and ask her now. Now is your chance."
"Ok, I'll try."
Matty walked mechanically over to Sakura.
"Oh, hi Matty, Great game yesterday. I made you this." She handed him a collage of pictures of him during the game, primarily the one when he caught the ballot win the game.
"Wow! This is awesome Sakura, do you take Photography?"
"Yea, I like it a lot." She said smiling.
"Oh, well Sakura, Would you umm…."
"What?"
"Do you want to go to the carnival tonight with me?" He said blushing furiously.
"Yes! When can you pick me up?"
"Um, around 7?"
"Yea, that is fine."
"I will see you there."
Sakura ran off with Hinata and Ten Ten, and started giggling. Matty stood frozen, when a hand clapped against his shoulder.
"Nice job champ, just woo her tonight and you're in." Kankuro said while giving a thumbs up.
"Kankuro you jerk!" Temari exclaimed. "If he goes in to soon she will think he's a perv!
The beginning of the day flew by and it was time for lunch. Lunch flew by and the end of the day flew by as well. Soon they were going into the car and heading home. Matty hopped in the shower right away and started putting on cologne and dressed up in all Hollister today.
"Ha-ha your style is so gay!" Gaara teased.
"Yea, but at least I have a date tonight!" Gaara immediately gave Matty a "don't fuck with me" look. Gaara found Matty to be his best friend. He never had a best friend before, and even though he could still be hostile to everyone, Matty was one person he would never want to disappoint. Maybe because they were somewhat similar.
"Well it doesn't matter anyway. Just go on the roller coaster and you will forget all about, try to get Ino, she is so slutty, and has the nicest tits!" Matty was saying. But Gaara did not want Ino he wanted Aiko. Temari signaled that it was time to go as Neji and Sasuke were going there now, and Matty said Sakura will be ready in 5 minutes so they should leave now. Gaara grabbed a mysterious bag and was off.
"What is that bag?" Matty asked, but Gaara didn't answer.
"Well, wish me luck." Matty said unconfidently. "Heh, this is my first date with anyone. I feel so pathetic." Temari just laughed and got him into the car. They drove to Sakura's house to pick her up. Matty walked to the door. He knocked on the door.
"Hello, who is it?" An older woman answered the door, around a mother's age.
"Oh, is Sakura home?"
"You must be Matty, you are adorable. Here, come in. She is getting dressed. So, you looked impressive in the football game the other day."
"Oh, you were there?"
"Yes, Sakura's father is a sports nut, and is in love with any sport in association with Konoha high school. He went ballistic when he saw you guys out there. I hear you live with Gaara and his brother and sister."
"Yea, actually I just moved in this week." Sakura soon came down the stairs, in a red T-shirt, and a denim mini skirt, and black converse low tops.
"Wow, you look great Sakura." Matty said forgetting her mom was in the room. Sakura's mom just giggled, and Sakura blushed.
"Remember Sakura, call me when you get there, and call me if you decide to stay over Matty's house tonight."
"Ok, mom, I will bye!" Sakura and Matty left hand in hand and walked into Temari's, beaten up SUV. They seemed to get there instantly and Matty and Sakura said their goodbyes and parted ways.
"Matty, remember to pick up when I call so we can meet up and go home." Temari said, holding Neji's hand. Matty nodded and left.
"You think he will mess up?" Gaara asked Kankuro.
"I'm going to saaaaayyyyy……Yes, but the thing about Matty is you never know what is going to happen. So let's spy on them and see how he does." Gaara agreed and they were off.
Matty and Sakura decided to go on the tunnel of love to get things started. She laid and nuzzled into Matty's shoulder breathing on him. He liked it. It was all peaceful until someone screamed.
"Ew, Kankuro get your fucking hand off of my thigh, you dumb faggot! What are you gay?" Matty heard Gaara say, he was laughing to himself. They then decided on the roller coaster, which again he heard Kankuro screaming from the back row, he seemed to not like roller coasters. And finally they went on the Ferris wheel (yes I know very cliché but I like it ;)….yea). They rode on it very peacefully and he noticed Gaara wasn't yelling. He wondered why.
Gaara had spotted Sasuke with Aiko and him all over her in the back.
"Gaara calm down. It's ok, she can handle herself." Gaara was starting to growl almost. He couldn't stand seeing his friend getting taken advantage of like that. He went over to them.
Matty saw Sakura starting to blush.
"You, know I have never been on a date before, I have never even made out with someone before." She said.
"Really? Me too, I thought I was weird for that." They were both blushing
Sasuke was now all over Aiko, and she was telling him to stop. He started to go up her shirt. She shrieked.
"Hey, scumbag! Get your fucking hands off of her." Gaara said quite calm, in a monotone voice.
"Who the fuck do you think you are, Gaara? I'm Varsity quarterback, I'm Mr. big shot, and what are you, some anti-social hell child, who gets respect because you choked some gay kid on a bus."
"He is not gay, He is my friend. And she is to, and I won't stand here and watch you touch her like that, especially when she wants you to stop." He said again surprisingly calm
"What are you gonna do about it?"
Gaara stared at Sasuke wit ha menacing smile, ready to fight.
"You know, I have always liked you since I first met you, Sakura." Matty said. She was blushing furiously. She tilted her head and started to come closer. He did the same, they were halfway there.
"So if you think you're so tough, why not fight me?" Sasuke asked.
"I will, you won't even be able to touch me."
"You forget you don't have your gourd on you."
"I don't?" Gaara asked as he turned the mysterious bag he grabbed earlier into sand and then it turned into his gourd.
"Well, I will still beat you!" Sasuke said as he did some hand signs.
"We'll see about that!" Gaara said as he threw sand at Sasuke.
"Chidori!" Sasuke screamed as he ran at Gaara.
Sakura's lips were almost touching Matty's, he could feel her hot breath against his lips, and he could feel his lips pulsating as he reached to kiss her….
Sorry I know it wasn't the best cliff hanger but I mean I do my best, so yea…. Yea please comment it makes me do better and I could mention you next chapter if you want ;)… Also I know I said I won't give set times, but plan to have this next chapter within the next 3 or 4 days because it has been hectic as my grandparents have some conditions that kept me from writing. So yea, plus I have to read the book "brave new world" for school… (Which starts in 4 days.)…Also, I know you may think that in my high school fic they can't use Ninjutsu or Genjutsu but they can, it is just that, the first few chapters are more introductory, so don't act as if I just threw it in there…PLEASE REVIEW!
