Gaara's Prov:

You and Aimee were looking out at the sunset. She yawned and laid her head on your shoulder. You gave a little blush. She looked up.

"Gaara, your cheeks are red, do you have a fever?"

She put her hand on your neck to check if you were sick. You took her hand away.

"I'm fine, really"

She smiled and put her head back on your shoulder.

What's this feeling? Why am I blushing? Maybe I am sick. God, my stomach has an icky feeling… but why always around her? Maybe I'll ask Temari… wait, what the hell am I thinking? I never ask her about these things. Should I ask Kankuro?

You thought for a while.

I'll just ask Temari.

You and Aimee started talking about where she lives. Then you talked about anything.

"Aimee, do you still want to fight me?" you asked.

"Yep"

You were confused.

"Why? Aren't we friends?"

"Of course we are"

"Then why do you want to fight me?"

"I want to see if you're good as they say you are"

"But… I don't want to hurt you"

"Don't worry, you won't… because I'm gonna beat you"

"Are you sure about that?"

She lifted her head.

"What, you're better than me?"

"No, I mean… well, I never seen you fight and… well I don't know, you could be better than me, but I trained and well, you--"

She took her finger and put it on your lips. She giggled.

"Gaara, you way talk too much, and I was only kidding"

She took her finger off.

"Oh, I knew that"

She laughed.

"What?" you asked.

"You're just like your brother"

You gave her a weird look.

"What brother? I only have 2 sisters" you said.

You both laughed. Then she gasped.

"Did… did you just laugh?"

You cleared your throat and made your straight face.

"No"

"Yes you did"

You rolled your eyes and pulled her headband on her head over her eyes and stood up and jumped down the roof.

"Hey!" she yelled.

You looked up and she jumped and started chasing you.

Oh shit.

She chased you around the village and you ran.

"So, you're fast!" she yelled.

"So are you!"

You both ran and ran and ran. Then you finally got tired. You slowed down and ran backwards to see how she was doing. It didn't seem that she was tired at all. She was so close to catching you, but then she tripped and went right on you. You both landed on the floor with her on top of you. You were both laughing. Then she stopped and looked straight into your eyes. You stopped laughing too. She still kept on looking at you.

"What?" you asked.

"I love it when you smile"

You blushed. Then she rested her head on your chest.

"Is it all right if I do this?" she asked.

"Yeah"

You put your hands at the back of your head. Then you heard rustling in the bushes. You and Aimee looked up without even standing. It was Kankuro and Temari. They looked at you and smirked. Then Kankuro and Temari started singing. Kankuro looked at Temari. (Song: Can You Feel the Love Tonight – Lion King)

"I can see what's happening"

"What?"

"And they don't have a clue"

"Who?"

"They'll fall in love and here's the bottom line, our trio's down to two"

"Oh"

"The sweet caress of twilight. There's magic everywhere, and with this romantic atmosphere, disaster's in the air"

Then Temari got out a kunai and pretended that it was a microphone.

"Can you feel the love tonight? It is where we are. It's enough for this wide-eye wanderer, that we got this far. Can you feel the love tonight--"

You stood up.

"Oh God, Temari stop stop! I get the point! Please, just stop singing, please!" you pleaded.

Temari and Kankuro started laughing. You rubbed your forehead.

"Why are you always here in the most awkward times?" you asked.

"Because, we're cool like that" replied Temari.

You rolled your eyes. Aimee stood up and yawned.

"You should go to sleep" you said.

"Yeah" she said.

"Kankuro, walk Aimee home, I need to talk to Temari"

"Ok"

While they were walking Kankuro was pretending to be the grudge and started scaring her.

"Kankuro, quite it" you said.

"Fine"

"Goodnight Gaara" said Aimee.

"Night"

You and Temari started walking.

"So, what's up Gaara?"

"I… I need your help"

She gave you a surprised look.

"Yeah, ok, shoot"

"Umm, I always have this feeling in my stomach, my palms get all sweaty, my chest starts pumping fast and I have no idea why"

"Well, does it happen all the time?"

"No, only when I'm around Aimee"

She looked at you and smiled. You got scared.

"Temari, why are you looking at me like that?"

All of a sudden, she hugged you.

"Oh Gaara, Gaara! It finally came, the precious day finally came!"

You pried her off.

"What the hell are you talking about?!"

"What I mean is that… you're in love"

You gave her a weird look.

"Me?"

"Yep"

"How do you know?"

"Well, let me ask you this, and you have to be totally honest"

You nodded your head.

"Ok, how would you feel if Aimee had a boyfriend?"

You thought for a while. Then you sighed.

"But what if she's not in love with me?"

"Well, you can't force someone to love you"

You looked down.

"But hey, you never know"

You walked back home with her. You walked into Aimee's room and looked at her. She was sleeping.

Mother, I love someone, but she doesn't love me back. How could she love a monster like me? I don't know. Why should I even bother, there's no use for it. But, I can't seem to stop loving her. But I know if anything happens to her, I would kill them. But in the future I don' want to fight her. Is she precious to me? Am I precious to her? Mother, can you tell? I wish you could. I wish you were here. But, if I loose her, I will have nothing, nothing at all. That's why I won't loose her.

The knelt down and kissed her on the cheek.

"I love you"

Your Prov:

You heard Gaara whisper those 3 words. When he closed the door you opened your eyes.

"Gaara loves me?"
