Neji sniffed and stared around his room warily. Where the hell had that sneeze come from…? He heard giggles from Hanabi's room and decided that he really didn't want to know. He was holding Kankuro the tiger, the name which he had decided to shorten to Kanky. He knew he probably looked ridiculous, but didn't particularly care. As long as no one came in his room, that is… The reason he had Kanky was because he had been slightly scared to sleep last nigh, courtesy of one very scary, blonde, pigtailed kunoichi. Neji gave a slight shiver.
'Scary female… I don't know how Shikamaru survives. Then again, scary women seem to run in his family, if his reports of his mother are true…'
He heard a knock at his door and hastily stuffed Kanky underneath his futon.
"Who is it?"
"Neji-niisan, it's just me."
Neji relaxed and opened the door. His cousin stood in the doorway, a knowing look on her face.
"Have fun yesterday?"
If Neji was a less dignified person, his eyes probably would have popped from their sockets. As it was, he gaped openly at his cousin, who giggled slightly and plopped herself on the unmade futon. Hinata patted the space next to her.
"Sit."
Blinking in surprise, Neji obeyed.
"…Who told you?"
Hinata started to snicker.
"Tenten made a fan website."
"…"
'You are fucking kidding me.'
'Wow, that popular already huh?'
'This isn't a good thing!'
"Please tell that's not why Hanabi was giggling earlier…"
"Well… Um, at least she's supportive?"
"…Oh gods."
Hinata patted his back sympathetically as he subconsciously pulled Kanky out from under the futon and buried his face in its fur.
"Don't be so down. I think it's great; you guys look good together. You need to let yourself go more anyway. A relationship will be good for you."
Hearing the sincerity in her words, Neji lifted his head and gave a small smile to his cousin, whom he had treated so badly.
"Arigato, Hinata-sama."
Hinata gave him an exasperated look.
"You really don't have to call me that. Its way too formal, we're family aren't we? Besides, you're older than me. Just call me Hinata, or Hinata-chan. Alright, Neji-niisan?"
Neji merely stared at his cousin, shocked at the changes that had appeared in such a short amount of time. Hinata was a lot more confident, and her stuttering had grown less and less. Also, she looked a lot happier and more… free. Neji smiled to himself; Hinata had grown into quite a kunoichi. And a lot of it seemed to be connected with her new friend. What was her name again…? Oh yes, T.C.
"You've changed a lot Hinata-s, um, -chan."
His cousin suddenly went back to one of her old habits, pushing her fingers together nervously.
"Y-you think so, Neji-niisan?"
Neji raised an eyebrow. What was with the sudden retrogression?"
"Yes, I do think so. It's nice that you made such a close friend also."
Now Hinata was blushing while pushing her fingers together, and Neji was strongly reminded of how his cousin would act around Naruto when she was younger.
"…Or maybe something more than a friend?"
"H-hai."
"Well that's good."
Hinata looked up from her finger mashing. Neji was smirking at her.
"So are you going to actually tell her, or dance around the subject forever? Correct me if I'm wrong, but you want to do something about the current situation, do you not?"
She smiled at him.
'Arigato Neji-niisan…'
"Hai. Anou, Neji-niisan…you like your tiger, don't you?"
Hinata, to her great amusement, saw a blush creeping along her brother cheeks.
"It's not like I usually cling to it! It's just… Temari is scary."
She patted his hand consolingly.
"She's just a tad overprotective."
'Jeez, you think?'
"As long as you don't screw up you won't suffer any permanent damage."
Neji glanced at his cousin.
"Thanks for that vote of support, I feel so confident now."
"At least you get a chance to work on your social skills, right?"
Neji thought it strange how easily they got along now, since they had started with a…. less than perfect relationship.
'Even though that was mostly my fault… but it's nice that we can get along now.'

Iruka almost keeled over from the sheer magnitude of what Naruto had told him.
"You can talk to Kyuubi… and Gaara can talk to Shukaku… and there are demons roaming around Konoha?"
"…Um, yeah?"
"…"
This time Iruka actually sat down with a plop and stared unbelievingly at Naruto, who was rubbing his head sheepishly.
"And you didn't tell me this before because…?"
"I didn't want you to worry, Iruka-niichan… I'm sorry."
Iruka merely stood up and shook his head, petting Naruto's messy mop of blonde hair.
"It's okay… this is just a lot to take in. But I have to ask… Konoha isn't in any danger from this, is it?"
"Nope, Kyuubi said that she'd take care of everything."
"…Okay…"
Iruka wasn't really sure about leaving all this to the Kyuubi, but Naruto seemed to trust the fox demon.
"By the way, Kyuubi's told me a few times that she'd like to meet you. So if you see her around, don't freak out or something, kay?"
"Um… okay?"
Naruto gave his big brother an affectionate hug then went off to meet Gaara, waving cheerily. Iruka gave a long suffering sigh and waved back, smiling slightly. Yep, Naruto certainly kept his life interesting… maybe a bit too interesting.

LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT LEMON ALERT!
Gaara had to stop himself from destroying innocent inanimate objects when he stalked through the door to his room, eye twitching dangerously. Naruto, who'd arrived a few minutes before, raised an eyebrow curiously.
"Something happen?"
"…If I never see another female again, I'll be happy."
"Fangirls?"
"….Worse."
"How many'd you get?"
"…Five on the way here."
Naruto suddenly felt something new: possessiveness. How dare people hit on his Gaara? He stood and gave Gaara a chaste kiss before hugging him and snuggling into his shoulder.
"So, wha'd T.C. say?"
"…You smell nice."
"…Wha?"
Gaara buried his head into the crook between Naruto's neck and his shoulder, breathing in deeply. He'd never noticed it before, but suddenly Naruto smelled… intoxicating. Naruto noticed the sudden interest.
"Gaara…?"
He cut off suddenly when he felt a warm tongue sliding over his skin, caressing it gently. His eyes filmed over slightly.
'Oh gods… that feels good.'
He moved his head to the side slightly to give the redhead better access and took a shaky breath, trying to keep from moaning. His nose was assailed with a particular scent. It definitely wasn't Gaara's normal scent, but it smelled so good…
"Ah!"
Gaara gasped in surprise as Naruto suddenly bit down hard on his neck, drawing a small amount of blood that was quickly licked away. He slid his eyelids shut as the blonde started sucking and nibbling at same the spot, giving him alternating feelings of both pain and pleasure. Gaara let out a soft moan; after fifteen years of pain, it felt damn good to feel pleasure in between. Naruto finished and gazed with slight pride at the sizeable mark he had created.
"You smell good too…"
Their lips meshed together as they collapsed on the bed, tongues fighting for dominance in a passionate embrace. Somewhere along the way their shirts were discarded and thrown to the floor. They each reveled in the intoxicating scent emanating from each other; Gaara was sure he'd never felt this good before. Sharing contact with someone else, someone who didn't fear or shun him… it was bliss. He was definitely fully aroused now, and he could feel Naruto's hardness poking him as well. Naruto suddenly thrust against him, rubbing their arousals together; he swore he saw sparks in his vision.
'Fuck… I've never… felt… anything like… this.'
Naruto was on top of him now, placing feather weight kisses against his jaw, going down to his chest, nuzzling his stomach… Gaara let out a slight whimper as he felt Naruto tug at his pant line. The blonde's eyes were gazed over with both lust and affection, a combination that Gaara never had aimed at him before.
"Gaara…"
Naruto's voice had dropped lower, and the redhead barely suppressed a shiver.
"How about we get these out of the way?"
(Should I stop here? -evil grin- ….nope, let's keep going!)
Pants are boxers were quickly removed and Naruto quickly slipped on a condom. For a while the two just started at each other, taking each other in. Gaara's breathes were coming in short pants; gods, he needed this, he'd always needed something like this. Naruto stared down at the beautiful creature before him and felt a sudden urge, and urge to claim him, take him as his own and show him that he was loved. Love…
"Naruto…I want…"
He leaned down and pressed a kiss on Gaara's 'ai' tattoo. Love.
"Yes?"
"…I want… you."
For a split second Naruto stared into his eyes; he saw want, love, need… things he'd been looking for his whole life. Someone who acknowledged him, and loved him for his he was as wasn't. Someone… who needed him. Out of nowhere a feral smirk crossed his features.
"Gaara…"
Aforementioned redhead gasped as Naruto suddenly leaned down, licking and biting all over his body, exploring every crevice he could reach. He cried out, it felt so damn good.
"…Lube… pocket... of pants…"
The blonde immediately reached down to where their discarded clothing lay, unearthing the desired object. Gaara whimpered as he felt a finger penetrate inside him. It felt weird… when the second one entered he pulled Naruto into a frenzied kiss, trying to block out the pain. The blonde felt Gaara tugging painfully on his hair and deepened the kiss, trying to sooth him. Then Gaara felt something new and almost cried out; fuck, it hurt! Years of dealing with pain both emotional and physical helped him through it however, and he shifted his body, trying to find a rhythm.
Suddenly he cried out in ecstasy and his hips arched upwards, desperate for more. Yeah it hurt but gods, when Naruto hit that spot… the pleasure far outweighed the pain. It increased even more when Naruto started pumping his shaft in rhythm with his thrusts, causing him to cry out even more.
"N-Naruto!"
They were both at their peak; Naruto came right after Gaara, his lovers name on his lips.
"Gaara… you know I love you, right?"
He merely smiled and nodded, completely exhausted. Naruto obviously noticed because he pulled the covers over both of them and wrapped his arms around Gaara, who fell asleep in a couple of seconds.
'I wonder what comes after this…'
Temari finished putting her clothes back on and turned to the boy still resting on the bed.
"We're still on for dinner, right?"
Shikamaru nodded lazily, a rare smile on his usually bored features.
"Of course. I'll pick you up… later."
They shared one last kiss before the kunoichi left the house, traveling too her own. She noticed that Gaara's door was ajar and peeked inside.
Kankuro came in through the door with food to find his sister passed out with a bloody nose.
'...Somehow I get the feeling I don't want to know...'
