ok haven't worked on this story for a while, been kinda caught up in uni work and 'Gaara's sex-ed' i hope you like this last chapter!


In a daze Gaara watched her walk away, opposite to the way she had kicked Sasuke. He watched until she turned a corner and was out of sight.

KIT
What
Go after her!
What?
GO AFTER HER! RUN!
HAI!

He ran forcing Chakra into his legs to catch up with her. However as he skidded around the corner he found the street was abandoned. With a growl he focused his energy seeking her chakra signature amongst the people and ninja around him.

There! He said running again


Sakura began running as soon as she turned the corner; she was angry and wanted to get away from him as fast as possible.

I don't want to see him, ever again! She thought,
Better not let him catch up then
Huh?
He can capture you with his sand
Dammit!
She could feel his chakra signature, and it was gaining he must be following my chakra

She reached the market
He's nearly here! Where can I…..her thoughts were interrupted as Gaara neared the market, Sakura immediately dived behind a nearby bench, blocking her chakra signature as she did.


An elder seated himself on the bench, sipping tea, at peace with the world.
She should be just around here…..kusso! Gaara swore as
A. he entered a busy market
B lost Sakura's chakra signature.


Sakura peeked around the bench at Gaara and gasped at what she saw. She had expected Anger, frustration but he looks so desolate...
Her thoughts were broken as he walked over to the bench "May I sit here Elder-sama?"
"Hai hai" the old man said pausing from his tea to nod at the red haired man before him.
Gaara slumped into the seat.
"You seem troubled child" The old man spoke again
Sakura was surprised to see teardrops fall from Gaara's bowed head, she tried to ignore the pang in her stomach it caused. The elder patted the young mans shaking shoulders,
"I'm an idiot" he said his voice thick
"Oh?"
There was no reply
"A girl" the elder concluded, prompting Gaara to explain
"I…" Gaara began wondering how and why he should speak of this to a stranger
"Talk, it will help"

Gaara leant back, wiping his eyes as he did so "I am a ninja, I guess an important one, and I wanted to get away from home for a while so I henged into another person…"
"That seems like a good idea"
"Not when you meet a girl, get attacked by one of her admirers and she finds out who you are and hates you"
"Ah….I see" the man sipped more of his tea, thinking "That is tricky" he said
"I've lost her" Gaara said bowing his head again I was going to tell her…I wish, I wish I'd known she'd be so disgusted and angry!" he said shaking his head "I'd have left her life sooner and spared us both this damn pain"


Leaves fluttered down in the silence. One landed on Sakura, kneeling behind the bench, her focus was on the pair before her, she didn't even notice.


"What pain?" The old man asked placing his empty cup on the ground
Gaara lifted his hand to his chest "If it hurts to be away from them, to imagine their pain or, or to realise they will never feel the same….Is that love old one?"
Tears prickled at the edge of the old mans eyes as he looked briefly towards Sakura he could see her eyes were closed with her hand mimicking Gaara's, clutching at her chest.
"Hai, boy, why do you love her?"
Gaara was silent for a long time, before slowly lifting his head and answering.


Sakura's chest ached; her eyes closed she prayed that he gave the right answer, if not, her heart would break.


"I love her because she's Sakura…." Her eyes snapped open and she was on her feet in an instant "…and she hates me because I'm a monster"

The slap actually connected; causing the old man to jump and people to stop and stare "Urasai baka!" she yelled angrily pointing at the shocked looking Kazekage.

The only sound in the market was the spinning of the old mans cup.
Acutely aware of the stares Gaara stood. He didn't meet Sakura's eyes as he handed a coin to the old man "Gomen"
Sand suddenly rose engulfing the pair.


Both were surprised when they appeared in Sakura's apartment
What are you doing?
Helping

Gaara growled as he avoided a chair thrown at his head
"Hentai!" Sakura yelled throwing another chair at him.
Gaara dodged "I can add that to the list of my titles can I?" He growled back
"Yeah you can add Jerk too!" She screamed throwing a vase

It shattered where he had been.
Meanwhile Sakura struggled as Gaara held her against the wall. One hand had captured her wrists and held them above her head, the other held her shoulder.
"Stop acting like a child!" he chided
"Shut up!" she yelled struggling
"Don't tell me to shut up!" he snarled glaring at her
"Then don't talk such SHIT" she replied glaring back at him
Gaara couldn't help it. Releasing her hands he drew her to him, crashing their lips together.

Sakura had been released and Gaara expected her to pull away. Instead she spun them both, slamming him into the wall and deepening the kiss.
Man that is so HOT
Shut up
You agree!

Sakura kissed the side of his neck as they both panted for breath, leaving butterfly kisses followed by light and sharp sucking
Gaara growled lightly hell yes

The phone ringing broke their 'attention' and as Sakura answered it Gaara snarled. "moshi-moshi...Tsunade-sama?" Sakura said "Gaar-san?" She gasped as Gaara began to kiss the side of her neck. "H, hai…Gaara is here…." Her eyes closed as he nibbled her ear "Temari-chan!" she asked sitting upright. Gaara leant back just in time to avoid being brained by Sakura (brained is slang for being hit in the head) "Hai sensei, I'll tell him…..hai….hai…ja ne" She hung-up
"Well?" Gaara asked
"Temari is in Tsunade's office and wants to see you NOW"
"It can wait" he replied
"Now" she countered
"Fine" Gaara said buttoning up his robes and straightening them "You stay there"
Sakura grinned "Alright" when he'd disappeared she burst out into laughter.


Temari stared
And stared.
"Temari"
Nothing
"TEMARI"
Suddenly Tsunade entered, when she saw Gaara however she began giggling and outright laughing, Temari joined her.

"What?" Gaara asked
Tsunade pointed at a nearby mirror and he looked.
She's a dead woman
Admit it – we got owned

Gaara had to agree.

His hair stuck up at all angles and love bites marked his visible neck. However the most interesting thing was the lipstick marks that started at his mouth and worked their way down his neck till they disappeared down his shit.

"So…" Temari finally spoke after getting over her hysteria "Having a good break?"
