Thank you to everyone who hit follow, favorite and review. Means a lot to me! ^_^

Oh I wanted to clarify. Gaara is 6 in this (currently) and Rin is younger than him by a few months. I think when the whole assassin thing happens Gaara is around 7 or 8 if not that's how it's gunna be age wise.

"Gaara!" Rin called. Gaara looked over as she ran towards him with her stuffed cat tied around her neck so it flowed behind her like a cat-cape. She giggled as she sat down on the swing next to him and he smiled before looking down shyly at his bear in his lap. "How are you?" Rin asked.

"I'm okay." Gaara said. "How are you?" he asked glancing over at her.

"Great!" Rin said as she kicked her legs to start swinging. Gaara smiled.

"What do you wanna do today?" he asked.

"Hmm…" Rin hummed as she leg her feet skid in the sand to stop her swinging. "Let's build a sand castle!" Gaara smiled.

"Okay." The two got off the swings and Gaara put his bear where he'd been before the two got on the ground in front of the swings.

"Wait, we'll need water to make the sand stay." Rin said with a frown. "Oh if only there was some way we could still make a sand castle. If only one of us had magic sand powers." She said dramatically. Gaara giggled. "That he refuses to teach the other." Rin added quietly before sticking out her tongue with a giggle. Gaara stuck his tongue out at her making the two start laughing. Gaara held his hand out and the sand moved up shakily and started to form a square but soon crumbled. "Awe."

"I'm sorry." Gaara said as he looking down at his hands with a frown. "I'm still figuring it out."

"It's okay." Rin said with a smile. She turned her head and her face under his to look up at him. He gasped and fell back with wide eyes. Rin started giggling again which made Gaara start giggling as well. Rin suddenly tackled Gaara in a hug making him yelp but start laughing as the two rolled on the ground. They ended up on their backs next to each other as their giggling faded. Rin's hand found Gaara's and held it making Gaara close his eyes and smile. A thought popped into his head and he quickly sat up and looked down at Rin.

"Do you wanna meet my uncle?" he asked. Rin sat up.

"Your uncle?"

"Yeah." Gaara said nodding with a smile.

"What about your mom and dad?" Rin asked. Gaara's smiled faltered.

"Um… I don't have a mom." He said quietly.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Rin said with a frown. Gaara shook his head. "And… your dad?" Gaara looked down into his lap.

"He… he doesn't like me." Gaara glanced at Rin since she'd been quiet for a while and his eyes widened when he saw her lip quivering and her eyes watering. "D-Don't cry! What did I do?" Rin sniffled and suddenly hugged him.

"I'm sorry." She whimpered.

"Don't cry, Rin." Gaara said hugging her back. "My uncle's really nice. You'll like him." Rin sniffled again and moved back. Gaara stood and held out a hand for her. "Come on. I'd really like you to meet him." Rin nodded and took his hand.

"Uncle." Gaara pushed open the door and walked inside. This time he was leading Rin by the hand. His uncle turned around and smiled when he saw Gaara but looked surprised when he saw Rin.

"Gaara." His uncle said. "Who's this?"

"This is Rin! She's my friend." Gaara said with a smile. Rin hid behind Gaara shyly, holding onto his shirt with her other hand. "It's okay, he's nice." Rin peeked out from behind him.

"Hello mister Gaara's uncle sir." Rin said quietly.

"Hello." Yashamaru smiled at her. "Your family just moved here, right?" Rin nodded.

"Yes sir."

"Please, call me Yashamaru." he said with a smile.

"Okay Mr. Yashamaru." Rin said. He chuckled. Gaara smiled and looked back at Rin.

"Hey, you wanna sleep over?" he asked. Rin blinked. Gaara turned to his uncle. "Can she? Please?" Yashamaru blinked.

"If it's alright with her parents I don't see why not." He said.

"Yeah, we already asked them." Rin said.

"Really?" Yashamaru asked.

"Uh-huh." Rin said nodding but not looking at him. Yashamaru looked at Gaara who nodded.

"Yeah we asked them." He said. Yashamaru sighed.

"Alright, if you two say so." He said. The two grinned and Rin hugged Gaara who started to blush. Yashamura couldn't help but smile at the sight.

"You think your parents will be mad?" Gaara asked as he and Rin sat criss-cross on his bed facing each other.

"Probably." Rin said. "But I don't care." She said crossing her arms. Gaara frowned and looked down. "I wanna stay with you." Gaara peeked up at her with a shy smile. She grinned at him. Suddenly she gasped and pointed behind him. "Gaara, what's that?!" Gaara's eyes widened and he whirled around. When he didn't see anything he frowned.

"I don't see any-Woah!" Rin suddenly tackled him and started to tickle him. "H-Hey!" He laughed. Rin giggled as he tried to squirm away from her wiggling fingers. Yashamura opened the bedroom door and knocked on the door frame with a smile. The two stopped to look at him but were still grinning and giggling under their breath.

"Time for bed, you two." Yashamura said with a chuckle.

"Okay." They said. Gaara grabbed his bear and Rin grabbed her cat before they crawled under the covers of Gaara's bed.

"Night you two."

"G'Night!" The two called. Yashamura chuckled before closing the door. Rin giggled and poked Gaara in the side.

"Rin." He whined with a slight giggle. "Go to sleep." He whispered.

"Okay." Rin said before rolling onto her side to face him. He rolled over and faced her too. They smiled and giggled quietly before closing their eyes.

"Hey Rin?" Gaara asked quietly. Rin opened her eyes but Gaara still had his closed.

"Yeah?" Rin asked closing her eyes again.

"Do you promise you'll always be my friend?" He whispered. Rin giggled.

"I already said we'd be friends forever." She whispered back.

"But we didn't promise." Gaara said opening his eyes. "Do you promise?" Rin opened her eyes and smiled at him.

"I promise. Forever and always." She said. Gaara smiled.

"Forever and always."

I love writing all this cute stuff! I have so many cute ideas for scenes! I know this is short again, sorry. Thanks for reading! ^_^
