"Um Gaara?" Sakura said. "He turned around."What?" Sakura got up and hugged him. "Thank you." She said. Gaara blushed and hugged her back. She broke the hug and went into the kitchen leaving a blushing Gaara. He smiled and headed towards the kitchen.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura walked into the kitchen with Gaara behind her. Gaara's smile was now gone, along with his blush. "Hey Sakura-chan! Here's a piece for you!"Naruto beamed."Here's a piece for you too Gaara!""Thanks." said Sakura. "Hn." said Gaara taking the cake from him. Gaara was enjoying his cookie crumb cake when Shakaku interrupted. "I told you! You like her." Shakaku bragged."She's alright." Gaara said. "You want her."said Shakaku. Gaara didn't reply. He took a bite of his cake. Shakaku laughed and left him alone. "Good cake" he muttered. After cake Akihiko went to his room. Everyone else went to go watch t.v. Temari and Kankuro were sitting in the armchairs. Gaara was sitting up on the couch while Sakura hand her legs on Gaara's lap and her head was resting on a pillow. Temari nudged Kankuro and motioned her eyes towards Gaara and Sakura. Kankuro giggle like a school girl. Gaara and Sakura looked at him. He turned his head towards the t.v before they could catch him looking at them. "Weird."inner Sakura said. Sakura nodded. Kankuro looked towards them again and giggled. He quickly turned his head to the t.v when they looked at him. This time Temari looked at them and giggled. Gaara sighed and looked back towards the t.v while Sakura was still looking at them. Temari didn't notice Sakura looking. She looked at her again and quickly looked at the t.v when she saw Sakura looking at her. "Alright."Sakura sighed and got up. "I'm going to bed." She walked up the stairs. Gaara got up and went into the kitchen. He transported himself in front of Sakura. "Yes?" She looked at him. He stood there. He looked like he was looking for words in his mind. "You look uneasy." He finally said. "Uh, yeah. I guess I am."She said while looking down. "If you really feel that insecure you could..."He stopped. "Eh?" Sakura looked at him. "You could stay in my room if you'd like." he blushed. He looked away. He knew she would decline. "Sure. I do feel a little unsafe. Thanks." she said while blushing. He looked up. Silence overwhelmed the two. "Uh.." he finally said. Sakura looked at him. "I guess you should get your stuff." he said. She nodded. He turned around and started to walk away. "Wait." Sakura said. "Where's your room?" She said. He turned around and pointed down the long hallway. "The very last door." he said. She nodded and he turned around and started to walk again. She smiled and went into her room. She got dressed and came out. The hallway was dark. Too dark for her liking. She moved quicklydown the hallway. She saw the last door and sighed. "Made it."inner Sakura said. She knocked on the door and waited. No answer. She knocked again. "There's no one in there." someone said. Sakura jumped and looked behind her. "Gaara.."she whispered. "Jeez, don't scare me like that." She said. "Sorry." he said. He opened the door and walked in. Sakura walked in and looked around. He turned on the light. "Wow." she said. Gaara looked at her and shrugged. He motioned her to come over to the desk that was next to the bed. She walked over to where he sat. She say in the chair next to him. "So. Why are you so scared?" he asked. Sakura looked down and started to play with her fingers. He sighed. "You don't have to tell me you know." he said. Sakura looked at him. He looked into her eyes. He saw pain. He knew she was scared to tell him. "Tired?" he asked breaking the silence. She nodded. He pointed to the bed. She got up and got in bed. "Don't you sleep?" she asked. "He shook his head. "No. I can't." he replied. "Oh, sorry." she said while putting her head on the pillow. "It's alright." he said. Sakura closed her eyes and went to sleep. Gaara sighed and moved his chair in front of the window. He looked up at the stars and smiled.
