RECAP!!!

"Do you want to go back down?" Neji whispered.

"Yeah." TenTen whispered back. "I want to see Temari." He nodded and kissed her forehead. Then they both walked back to the stairs hand in hand.

(Sakura's POV!!!!!!!!!!)

My body hurt. I couldn't see or feel. But the pain was there. It washed over my body, I felt numb. The pain was numbing all of my senses. Muffled voices were yelling all around me, I didn't know where I was. I tried to open my eyes, but they wouldn't. They were to heavy and the pain grew when I tried to move.

"LET GO OF ME!" I heard someone scream. Their voice broke throught the blackness, the numbing pain. I heard a growl and a smash.

My eyes flickered open. There was a bright light, but they didn't close, they stared at the man with red hair. He was pushing people off of him, trying to get to me. I could see the tears glisening off his cheeks. A mask was placed around my mouth and nose, I turned my head to try and shake it off. The only two noises I could hear was the mans screaming and a loud beeping noise. I could only feel my hearts slow beeting.

"SAKURA!" Another yell came from the man, followed by another loud crash. I moved my eyes so that I was looking at him, but someone blocked my path.

I tried reaching for him, but only my fingers would move. I needed him, but they were taking him away. Why? Why were they taking him away from me?! I felt myself start to panike, my heart was thunding softer and softer. I reached for him again, and my arm fell from the table I was on. It was cold and metal, I was starting to feel again.

"Get him out of here!" One doctor yelled.

NO! I wanted to scream, but nothing came. I wanted to scream for them to let him go. I wanted him to hold me and whisper that everything was going to be alright! Someone put my arm back on the table. NO! NO! NO! NO!!!!! They shut the door on him, he was gone. I felt myself dropping farther into the darkness without him. I needed him. He was my life boat from the sea. My rope to hold me up from falling down the cliff. My life to keep me from dieing, but he was gone.

"We're losing her!" Someone said from next to my head. My eyes were starting to shut. They were still yelling to each other, and I could feel things going into my body.

"GET OUT OF MY WAY!" The door slammed open.

"L-L-Lady Tsunade?!" A doctor near my head stuttered in fright.

"MOVE!" She hissed. I heard a crash. What was Tsunade-sama doing here? I couldn't keep my eyes open much longer. A long beeping sound rang through the room as my eyes shut.

Beep.... beeeeep... beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-

Someone turned off the moniter. "Time of death?" A women whispered.

"She's not dead! I wont let her be!" A voice yelled. They all sounded like whispers, very faight ones at that. It was like I was watching from the ceiling, I could see myself lying on the metal table, Tsunade pumping Chakura into my system.

Something wet touched my cheek, I touched it to find a tear. I glanced back down at my body, was I really dead? There was a single tear on my body's face. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I let the blackness take everything away again. And I welcomed it with open arms and a smile on my lips.

(Normal POV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Temari slept with her head resting on her brothers shoulder. He was lying down next to her. Shikamaru was still gazing out the window. It was raining out. The water splashed onto the window, making small sounds that filled the room.

Temari had fallen asleep not to long ago, she had cried herself to sleep. Kankuro wanted to go and find Gaara, he waas worried about his younger brother. But he didn't want to wake Temari and leave her. He was debating which was more important. And he couldn't decide. They were both his brother and sister, he loved them equally. But, he knew people were safe from Temari, but he wasn't sure about Gaara. He could kill at a moments notice if someone made him do something he didn't want to... like leave Sakura's body.

When the ambilence arrived, Gaara had refused to let Sakura go. He had carried her to the car and sat on the bed thing with her in his arms. The EMT's had to work around him to get to Sakura, he never loosened his grip. Kankuro had rode with them in the ambilence, fearing for the EMT's lives. He had never seen his brother like that. Gaara was in a kind of trance. His face was blank and his eyes stared at nothing. But the tears never stopped running down his pale cheeks. He growled once at a EMT, but that was because the guy tried moving Gaara's arm so he could check Sakura's shoulder blade.

Kankuro carefully got off the bed, putting a pillow under Temari's head. He glanced at Shikamaru, he understood and mearly nodded to Kankuro. Kankuro slipped out of the room and booked it down the hall. He needed to find Gaara, and quick. If Naruto was there, then he'd be fine, but Naruto had left in search of Hinata when they go there. Kankuro passed Neji and TenTen in the hall, quickly asking if they had seen Gaara. They hadn't. Kankuro raced down the hall again, running right past the elevators to the stairs. He had no time to wait for the stupid box to reach this level then bring him down to the first floor. It would take to long. Kankuro flew down the stairs, jumping down a flight of stairs a few times.

It wasn't long until he reached the floor he wanted. He ran into the hall, almost running into a doctor or a few. He mumbled a 'sorry' but kept running. He reached the end of the hall and ran into the room, no one was in there. He stopped, to shocked to move. What was going on? They had just been in here.

"Kankuro?" A female voice said from behind him. He slowly turned to see Tsunade standing behind him, her arms crossed over her chest. "If you're looking for Gaara, he's in room 023 down the hall." She nodded her head to the left. "Be careful around him. If he hurts one more person he will be sedated." Kankuro nodded and whispered a thanks as he ran back out of the room.

'018, 019, 020, 021, 022, 023!' He thought as he looked at the doors numbers. He ran over to room 023 and opened the door slowly.

"Gaara?" He whispered as he poked his head in, what he saw made he push the door fully open and freeze.

Gaara was sitting next to a bed with a small white hand in his. He was staring at the girls face. Sakura lay in the bed with many wires hooked to her small white frame. She had no color. She was just white. Many different beeping sounds echo'd in the room. Sakura's chest slowly rose and fell, barely noticable. She had a bag of blood and another bag full of clear stuff dripping through wires in to her blood stream. Kankuro was begining to dout that she even had blood in her body with how white she was. He took a few steps into the room, but stopped when Gaara's head snapped up to stare at him, a growl coming from his lips.

"Hey..." Kankuro held up his hands defencively. "I wont touch her." He sat down in a chair on the other side of the bed from Gaara. "I was just coming to check up on you, Gaara." He leaned back and watched as Gaara turned back to watch Sakura's face. Gaara's face looked pained, though if you didn't know him as well as Kankuro did, you would have thought that his face was blank. "I think I should warn you though..." Gaara didn't look at him so he continued. "Tsunade-sama said that if you hurt anyone else she'll tie you up and eat you for dinner." His voice held a small amount of humor.

"C-careful, she r-r-really might e-e-e-eat you." A soft whisper came.

Gaara jumped out of his chair and leaned over Sakura. His hand cupped her face while his other tightened around her hand. "Sakura?" He whispered. Kankuro stood and leaned closer, but stayed back a little so that Gaara would have some room.

Sakura's green eyes flickered and slowly opened, a small smile coming to her lips. "S-s-silly Panda." She whispered. Gaara smiled, a wide and true smile.

"Beautiful Cherry Blossom." Gaara whispered.

"Retarded kids." Kankuro said in a voice that sounded like he was crying. Both Gaara and Sakura's faces held confusion as they turned to look at him. Kankuro shrugged and sat back down in the chair. "I wanted to say something speacial, too!" He whined.

"Stupid make-up wearing kitty." Sakura whispered. Kankuro looked at her with a small glare, but a soft smile appeared on his face.

"Gaara..." Sakura turned her head to look at him, and he turned to face her, worry on his face. "I love you." She whispered a smile stretching across her face.

He smiled back. "I love you more then anything." He whispered. He bent down and lightly kissed her lips. Sakura let out a small giggle, but winced and sucked in breath from the pain. "What's wrong?" Gaara's hand was on her ribs, his over hers.

"It hurts to laugh." Sakura said letting out a small breath. She smiled up at him dispite the pain. "Kiss me again." Gaara looked at her for a few seconds. He was trying to decide if it would hurt her or not. "Gaara..." She said, growing impatient.

"Give the girl what she wants already!" Kankuro sighed, taking hold of the back of Gaara's head and pushing his face down so Sakura could kiss him. She mumbled a thanks against Gaara's lips. "Any time." Kankuro chuckled. "I'm going to go tell the others the good news." Kankuro glanced at them once more before he left the room with a smile.

Sakura slowly lifted her free hand to place it in Gaara's hair, her fist tightened around his red locks. Gaara's hand lifted her other and placed it on his shoulder, so he could free his hand. He let his hand wander down her arm, feeling all of her skin. Many bumps littered her pale arms, all of them a dark blue or sickly yellow color. His hand reached her shoulder and continued down her body, stopping at her waist. He could feel the cast that was wrapped around her waist to hold her hip still so that it could heal. He leaned down closer so that she could feel his chest against hers, but not so much that it was hard for her to breathe, just enough so that they could both feel it.

Sakura's lips molded with Gaara's. She tried pulling him down on top of her, but he wouldn't move, and she wasn't strong enough to try much. Gaara smirked against her lips and pulled back, looking into her face. She was breathing a little hard, and her heart was beeting faster then normal, the beeping was getting faster and faster. He smirked larger at hearing it. She blushed and turned away.

Gaara kissed her cheek and moved his lips to her ear. "I will do anything for you." He whispered before he fully pulled away from her. He sat back down in the chair, but moved it a lot closer to her. "Go back to sleep, love." He whispered and took hold of her hand. Sakura smiled at him and closed her eyes.

"Will you still be here when I wake up?" She whispered, her voice thick with sleep.

"I wont go anywhere. I will never leave you." He said as he kissed her hand. "I promise."

Sakura smiled and opened her eyes slightly. "I love you." She whispered.

"And I love you." He whispered back, standing to kiss her lips once more. "Now go to sleep. I promise I wont leave you alone." She smiled and nodded. Her eye lids slipped down over her green emerals. Her heart rate went back to normal and her breathing slowed, showing she was asleep.
