Lol Sorry for the last chapter...I kinda left you hanging sweat drops Anyways..Here's chapter 9!Enjoy!!!

"Tsunade-sama, What's wrong?" Sakura panicked.

"Just as I thought would happen." Tsunade mumbled.

"What do you mean?"

"Since Gaara's body is different, because of the demon, I can't just use regular cures."

"What do we do?!" Sakura quickly asked.

"Don't worry, Sakura. I have it completely under control."

With that said, Tsunade reached on to the table next to her and grabbed another syringe. She grabbed Gaara's arm and injected the contents into his body. Both of them waited. Sakura felt relief as his heart rate went back to normal. She sighed as she noticed Gaara starting to awake again. "Okay, Sakura. I'm gonna start again." she informed.

Sakura went back to her position by adding pressure to his shoulders. She nodded and Tsunade put her hand back on to Gaara's abdomen. Pain quickly entered his entire body as he gripped the bed tighter and tighter by each passing second. She ran her fingers through his hair. It seemed to calm him down a little, but not as much as he had hoped. "How much longer, Tsunade-sama?"

"Just a few more minutes. Don't worry Sakura, he'll live and you two can do whatever you want." Tsunade smiled.

Sakura glared at her and Gaara let out quiet snort and smirked. Wait, I see what she's trying to do. "Oh, yeah. We're gonna go see a movie and make-out in the theater like we do everyday."

Sakura felt better when she noticed Gaara relax more as he quietly laughed. "Okay. All done." Tsunade informed.

Sakura let go of his shoulders while Tsunade cleaned up all the tools. "Hey, Sakura?"

"Hmm?"

"Thanks." Gaara said.

"You're welcome."

Sakura smiled and turned to leave the room. "Where are you going?" Gaara wondered.

"Don't really know. I was probably just gonna walk around. Why? Did you want me to stay?"

"You don't have to. I'm not making you."

Poor guy. He seems so lonely. 'You know you want to stay with him.'

"How about this. I'll quickly go out and do something while you rest. Okay?"

Gaara nodded.

Sakura left the hospital and walked around Konoha. She didn't know what to do. She kept walking until she ran into Kiba, Ino, and Naruto. "Hey, guys."

"Oh, hey, Forehead." Ino greeted.

"Nice seeing you again too, Ino-pig." Sakura shot back.

They glared at each other and then started to laugh. "So how was you mission, Sakura?" Kiba asked.

"It's going pretty good so far."

"Oh, how's Gaara anyway." Naruto budged in.

"He's fine. He had surgery this morning and is doing good." She smiled.

"Your mission was to help Gaara?" Ino wondered.

"Uh, yeah." Sakura started to smile.

"You like him, don't you?" Ino smirked.

Sakura quickly stopped smiling. "Do not."

"Do to."

"DO NOT!"

Ino laughed. "Sure Sakura."

"Sorry Sakura, but we have to go." Kiba said.

"Okay. I'll you guys around." she waved.

Sakura watched them leave and turned to go back to the hospital.

Finally! This one took forever for some reason. And it wasn't that interesting. Oh well. R&R plz.
