Sand scraped against the floor and wrapped around me, lifting me up. It pulled me over the desk and sat me sideways Gaara's lap. He lay one arm across my legs with his hand lightly resting on the outside of my thigh. The elbow of his other arm lay on the chairs armrest, his hand enclosing on my way. My head level with his broad chest.

"Temari could you deal with that?" Gaara spat.

"Of course, Kazekage-sama." Temari bowed.

Temari quickly walked over to Kankuro grabbed him by the back of his shirt and drag him out. His hands were still enclosed over the wound I gave him. He cursed at Temari for dragging him out so violently and at I for hurting him. The door slamming shut behind them, making me flinch.

"Are you alright?" Gaara asked quietly, his hands moving from my thigh to my knee.

I nod. "I feel a bit violated though." I shifted in his grasp.

"I'm glad you're alright." He responded.

" Yeah, I am too." I stood up and went to take a step but I was pulled back. I was on his lap again, my back pressed up against his chest and his arms clenched tightly around my middle. My limbs locked up face going bright red.

"Uh... Gaara?" I stuttered.

"Hmm?" His breath tickled my ear, making my own catch.

"Could you... Uh... Maybe let me, um, go?"

"No"

"Eh? Why not." I shouted then shipped to a softer tone, my ears folding back - "Because this is making me very uncomfortable" He nuzzled into my hair, sending shivers down my spine and successfully fluffing out my tail.

"Doesn't seem like it... but alright." He mumbled with a sigh. Once he released me, I hopped up and walked around his desk. I clasped my hands together behind my back.

"So... you going to let me leave now?"

"No" He said.

"Why not!?" My tail lashed wildly back-and-forth.

He blinked, eyes glittering in the fading sunlight. A whisper of a smirk upon his left.

I huffed and plopped myself down onto the couch. My arms were crossed tightly over my chest and my gaze violently assaulted the opposing wall. Scribbles filled the air signaling that Gaara had returned to his paperwork. Find, be that way then. I'll just take a catnap.

And so I did.

What am I going to do with her? I ran my hands through my hair and looked over to the girl snoozing on the couch. She was making the demon restless and he wanted out, bad.

"Go to her." The beast spoke.

"No."

"Just do it. It will make me happy." He argued.

"Fine." I stood and walked over to her, standing in front of her. Slowly I know that in front of her, gently prying her arms apart. I leaned her forward and laid her arms across my shoulders. My hands slid under the back part of her thighs and lifted her up. Pivoting on the heel of my foot, I sit myself where she was previously stationed. Her arms fell off my shoulders and drop down her sides, her fists laying on my chest. Unconsciously she snuggled into me, her pelvis press tightly into mine with her chest just barely reaching my own. The top of her head rests just below my collarbone.

"She sure is a tiny little thing." The beast spoke again.

"Yes she sure is." I answered a blush creeping up on my neck.

I moved my hands so that they were locked under the base of her tail before slouching and letting my head drop onto her shoulder. I heaved a sigh. This girl was going to be the death of me, if not, the Kage work was running a close second.
