Chapter Two

Sakura woke up, feeling a little bit better then when she arrived. Plus there was another feeling inside of her that was also helping, Sakura became confused by it, but for now she would ignore it. She got out of bed, stretched, and went to the bathroom to take a shower. The running water felt good as she washed herself, when content enough, she got out, dressed and went downstairs.

Temari looked over her shoulder at Sakura and was happy to see a small smile on her face. "What did you and Gaara do last night? You seem happier today." Temari said.

"He pissed me off, that's what." Temari laughed.

"What did I do now?" Gaara said from behind Sakura. Sakura turned around and looked him straight in the face.

"You pissed me off, that what you did." Gaara smiled, Sakura squealed and ran upstairs. Temari was confused, then, Gaara broke out laughing, this confused Temari even more. Gaara shook his head and left the kitchen. Temari watched as Gaara made his way upstairs to Sakura's room.

"Why did you squeal at me?" Gaara asked, Sakura glared at him, he glared back, causing her to squeal again.

"I don't know." She said. Gaara smiled. He went over and sat next to Sakura on the bed.

"I think its because you are returning to normal, slowly but surely." Sakura glared at him again, he just smiled and got closer to her. Sakura got up and went out of the room, Gaara followed.

The next morning Sakura got a fever, Gaara was off today so he stayed with her while Temari and Kankuro went off on missions. Sakura hated being sick, even more so now then ever, she said she wanted to take a shower but when she sat up she got dizzy and had to lay down again.

"You know you could just ask me to bathe you." Gaara said. Sakura glared at him, she wasn't in the mood for joking around. Gaara must have known she thought this and said, "I'm not kidding." Sakura looked at his face, he wasn't smiling. She muttered something inaudible, Gaara grinned, "What was that, was that a yes perhaps?" without waiting for a reply he picked her up and transported her to the bathroom and placed her in the tub.

"So you weren't't kidding huh?" Sakura said. Gaara smiled, "Fine. But you owe me." Gaara grinned and soon Sakura was stripped of all clothing, the water filling up the tub, Gaara getting ready for this once in a lifetime chance. To Gaara, Sakura was really beautiful, with or without clothes, he gently took the soap and started to wash her. Sakura blushed the entire time, she was feeling better already.

Sakura looked up at him, "Remember, you owe me, big time." Gaara smiled and nodded. When he was done he drained the water away and dried Sakura off. Sakura continued to blush, she wasn't used to showing someone else her body, let alone a male. Gaara then carried her to her room and dressed her, then put her back in bed. Sakura became drowsy, and said, "Remember...you...owe...me." as she said this she fell asleep.

When Sakura awoke it was still daylight Gaara wasn't with her but she figured he was doing something. When Gaara entered the room he saw Sakura was awake, "How do you feel?" He asked.

"Great. Better then ever. By the way," She smiled, "you still owe me." Gaara smiled,

"I see you haven't forgotten that yet." Sakura glared at him,

"How could I? Who would let someone of the opposite gender get away with seeing them naked with nothing in return?" She smiled mischievously. Gaara raised an 'eyebrow'.

"Alright, what do you want me to do?" Sakura was grinning now, Gaara had a bad feeling about this.

"I want you to take off your clothes and sleep with me tonight." She said, blushing. Gaara stared at her, she stared back.

"...Fine." He said reluctantly, "Temari and Kankuro won't be back from there missions for about three days, so they won't suspect anything." Sakura smiled. A few moments passed, Sakura frowned.

"Well?" She said, Gaara looked confused, Sakura sighed, "If your going to do it how about some time today?" Gaara nodded, embarrassed, and did as he was told. Sakura observed his body with obvious delight. She squealed again and moved over to the side so Gaara could get in.

'Well, she's impressed... I think'

'What are you waiting for? Take her!'

'um. I don't think I should take advice from perverts.'

'fine, suit yourself.' The Shukaku cackled and disappeared within the contents of Gaara's mind. He sighed and got in, Sakura squealed again and hugged him. Gaara was confused by this sudden action, but he smiled as she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Soon she was sound asleep, and Gaara took advantage of this moment to remove her clothes, as payback for making him do this.

When Sakura woke up the first thing she notice was that she was naked, the second thing she noticed was that Gaara had pinned her body against his. Sakura couldn't get out, but there was one way, under the covers. She sighed and went under and, luckily, she escaped. Sakura frowned at Gaara and went to take a shower.

Sakura went back into her room, it would be pointless to get back at Gaara for taking off her clothes at night, but she did slam a pillow on his head.

"Ghaah! What the hell!" Gaara sat up and looked for the abuser, "Oh, its you Sakura. Ghaah!" Sakura had hit him again with the pillow.

"Get off my bed you pervert!" Sakura yelled, Gaara glared at her and got up, dressed, and went to the kitchen. Sakura sighed and plopped on the bed, Gaara soon came back up and found her asleep. He picked her up and took her downstairs and placed her gently on the sofa,

'She really is beautiful.'

'Then take her'

'Once again you are the reason why I was called a pervert.' The Shukaku chuckled Gaara sighed, he wasn't going to hear the end of this. Sakura woke up to the smell of not Temari's cooking, but Gaara's.

'So he can cook, so what? I can too.'

'Yeah but he's doing it for you... probably.' Sakura was shocked, it had been a very long time since she last talked to her inner self.

'Where have you been?'

'Its you own fault, because you went into seclusion you blocked out everybody.' Sakura was now being picked up and transported to the kitchen, Gaara placed her in a seat.

"I can walk fine thank you." Sakura glared at Gaara, he said nothing. They ate in silence, never bothering to look up at each other. Breakfast was finished and Gaara started to clean up, Sakura went to her room to talk to her long-lost inner self. Gaara soon went up to see how she was doing, and what she was doing.

Kankuro looked towards Suna, so did Temari, no doubt, he was thinking about Sakura. "Sakura will be fine with Gaara, besides, we decided to leave it to him." Temari said. Kankuro nodded and they continued their mission.

Gaara entered the room and saw Sakura lying on the bed staring a the ceiling. She looked up at Gaara, then put her head back down. Gaara went over to her and sat on the bed, she kicked him off. Gaara got up, glaring at her, she was grinning,

"I see we're almost there." He said, Sakura froze again. Gaara had, once again, placed her in a position with no exit. Sakura's expression was sincere, Gaara had done so much for her and she didn't even realize it. She got up from her bed went over to Gaara and kissed him. Gaara was surprised by this sudden move, so he didn't know what to do. It was his first kiss, and it was with Sakura, she had closed her eyes and was now putting her arms around his neck.

"Arigato." She said, and kissed him again.

Mario11445: Arigato- means, Thank you, or just Thanks.

Four days later Temari and Kankuro came back to Suna, battle scarred and completely worn out. They looked around for Sakura and Gaara to find them in her room. Temari smiled and greeted her brother and the now much happier Sakura. "Almost done then?" Sakura blushed and nodded. It was true, Sakura felt better then ever.
