Your Prov:

Gaara turned his back to you.

"Why, why did you save me?" you asked.

"Why do you need a reason?"

"Why do you care about me?"

"I don't"

"Then why save me?"

"Because… I want the pleasure of killing you"

You realized that you weren't going to get your fight.

"All right, I give. Kill me. I won't budge, I swear it"

He looked at you.

"Fine"

The sand wrapped around your body. He lifted you, and stared into your eyes. You were scared of dying.

"Oh, Gaara, one more thing before you kill me"

"What"

"I don't think you're a monster"

His eyes widened. He dropped you.

"Y-you don't think I'm a monster?"

"I don't"

He stepped back. He didn't believe you.

"No, you're lying! I can see it! You think I'm a monster like everyone, you do!"

"No, I don't. I know we don't really know each other, but I can tell, you're not a monster. And the people who call you a monster, really, they're the monster"

"Why… why do you treat me different? I almost killed an innocent mother and her child, and yet you don't think I'm a monster? You're playing tricks, you're playing tricks! You are!"

"I'm not. I swear. Why can't you trust me?"

"Because, trust is something everyone lacks, even you. I don't trust anyone!"

"Why not?"

"Because, the people I cared when I was young betrayed me! So I will never trust the world and the people in it ever again!"

"You can't live that way forever! You can't be scared of the world you live in!"

"Watch me, I will forget about this world!"

"No you won't, you won't forget, you're just making a wall between you and this planet, but just because there's a wall doesn't mean that you're not thinking about the other side of it!"

"You don't know what I will and will not do!"

"So, how will you forget, tell me Gaara"

"By killing the people in this world"

"If you can kill random people in the world, why can't you kill me?"

He looked at you.

"Why didn't you kill me?" you repeated.

"I don't know why"

You sighed and stood up. You walked towards him, you stumbled, but you kept on walking. You went near him.

"Gaara… I don't want you to hate me. Now, I don't want to be here just to fight you, I want to be here so I can get to know you"

"You don't want to know about me"

"I do, I really do"

"Why?"

"Because, I know that you're not a monster"

"You're the fist one, in a long time to say that I'm not a monster"

"I'm only saying the truth"

You smiled at him. Then he took his sand and wrapped it around your body.

"LIAR!" he yelled.

Oh God, I'm so dead

"Sand Coff…"

But before he could finish, Temari comes and holds him from the back.

"Gaara, stop, drop her!"

"No, she must die!" he yelled.

"C'mon Gaara, she was the one that never called you a monster and this is your thanks to her?"

"She's a liar!"

"How do you know?"

He stopped and stared at you. They he dropped you. Temari let him go and ran to you. She helped you up and put your arm around her neck. Gaara walked passed you and whispered in your ear,

"I'll kill you, I swear to it"

And walked home. Temari helped you walk home. When you arrived, Gaara walked to his room and slammed the door. A little later Kankuro walked in the house.

"Good, you're safe. I've been looking everywhere for you are you ok?"

"No"

"Well, I bet you should lie down then"

"It's not about that, it's about Gaara. I don't think you told me everything about him have you"

He sighed and looked at Temari. She nodded her head.

"Aimee, I think you should sit down, this might be while" he said.

You sat down with Kankuro and Temari. They told you the whole story of Gaara's childhood. Your hand was covering your mouth in shock. When they finished your thoughts were full of blood, death, pity and sorrow.

"Well, that's the story. Any comments?" asked Kankuro.

"Holy… shit"

"Is that all you can say?"

"I feel so bad for him"

"Ah well, what are you going to do"

He stood up.

"I'm gonna fix my puppets" and walked into his room.

Temari gave you a cup of tea and you asked her questions. After half an hour, you decided to go talk to Gaara. You stood up. Then Temari looked at you.

"You know he might kill you"

"I'm going to take that risk"

You walked upstairs and opened the room to his door. He was all ready asleep, well it seemed. You walked to the bed and looked at him, thinking he was asleep. You touched his cheek, but you noticed that it wasn't cold, or warm. You remembered when you got scared from the commercial his cheek touched your forehead and it was warm. Then you realized that is wasn't Gaara. You saw a path of sand going near the wall.

"Gaara, I know you're up there, please don't hide from me"

You didn't even look up when you said that. He jumped down.

"I can kill you now if I wanted to"

"Fine, but let me tell you something"

He kept silent. That showed you that he was going to listen.

"You know, I am going to pretend to know how your life was like, I am going to pretend that I know what you've been through, and I'm going to pretend that I understand… even though I don't"

"Why bother pretending when you don't"

"Because, you're not telling me, I don't really know, so I'm pretending to know"

"But you don't know, you don't know anything!"

"I know"

"Then… why do you want to know?"

"Because, I just do, why do you need a reason?"

You repeated him when he said why do you need a reason? when you asked him why he saved you.

"Why do you care about me?"

Gaara's Prov:

You repeated what she said when she asked why you needed a reason. Then she said something you didn't think she would say.

"Because, I just do"

Your eyes widened.

"You… you care about me?"

"Yes, I do"

You couldn't believe it.

"N-no, no you don't"

"Oh god, what would it take for you to trust me?!"

You all ready knew what you were going to say.

"If you truly care about me, then kill yourself"

She was in shock.

"I knew you didn't care about me" you said.

But then you saw her took a kunai out. She held it in front of you.

"I hope, this proves is to you"

She took the kunai and was about to jab it into her chest, then you held her hand to stop her. You looked at her in shock.

I can't believe it; she really does care about me…

She looked at you.

"So, you want the pleasure of killing me?" she asked.

"No… you are telling the truth. You don't think I'm a monster, I can't believe it"

"Well, it's true. So, are you still going to kill me?"

All of a sudden he wrapped her arms around your neck and hugged you. You were surprised, you haven't felt a hug in a long time. You hugged back.

"No, I won't kill you"
