Not Capable

Chapter 4: Medicine and Good Things

Gaara watched amused as Hinata tried to get him the correct amount of medicine in the small cup. She then held the medicine in front of him waiting for him to take it, when he didn't she got noticeably uncomfortable.

"Kazekage-sama, p-please take the m-medicine," Hinata stammered.

"I can't," Gaara stated simply keeping a straight face.

"Y-You're p-paralyzed from the w-waist down. You c-can move y-your arms and h-hands," Hinata replied, slightly confused.

"Alright, I won't," Gaara said with amusement unlike his usually monotone voice.

Now, Hinata was extremely uncomfortable and confused. She stammered without being able to conjure a word. Then, she stopped, took one long breath, and then tried to speak again.

"Kazekage-sama, y-you h-have t-t-to take y-your m-medicine," Hinata stuttered, "…o-or y-you'll n-n-never g-get b-better."

"Gaara," Gaara said purposefully vague.

"W-what?" Hinata asked.

"Call me Gaara," Gaara commanded with a bit of an annoyed tone.

"A-Alright, G-Gaara-sama you must take y-your medicine," Hinata repeated.

"No," Gaara said in an amused, yet serious tone.

"Y-You h-have t-to!" Hinata exclaimed.

"No, I don't. What can you do to make me take it?" the Kazekage asked, still amused.

"I-I…." the Hyuuga couldn't finish her sentence. What could she do?

"Please, G-Gaara-sama, take your m-medicine."

"No," Gaara repeated like a broken record.

"W-What will g-get you t-to take the m-medicine?" Hinata asked trying not to sound whiney. To be honest she hadn't expect the Kazekage to act so childish. Earlier his childishness with his brother and sister was cute, now it was annoying.

With that question Gaara smiled the most vicious, disturbing smile Hinata had ever seen.

"W-W….W-What?" Hinata repeated.

Gaara looked from the door, to Hinata, to the window, and then back to Hinata.

Hinata shook her head vigorously understanding what he wanted, "Y-You c-can't G-Gaara-sama!"

Gaara raised his right eyebrow, "Hinata, I thought we covered this. Since when do you tell me what I should and shouldn't do?"

"Um…" Hinata stopped unable to answer. Gaara wasn't being childish anymore; he was being…being…something Hinata couldn't quite put her finger on.

"Will you get me a wheel-chair?" Gaara asked innocently.

Hinata nodded hesitantly, "This could get me fired."

Gaara instantly frowned, "Don't worry; I'll say I threaten to kill you if you didn't do what I said."

When Hinata giggled, Gaara was slightly taken back, "What's funny about that?"

"I-I don't t-think they'd b-believe you. Y-you no longer s-seem capable of k-killing," Hinata giggled a little more at the idea.

For some reason, Gaara smiled, "I wouldn't be so sure of that."

He was slightly surprised when Hinata continued to smile and wasn't the bit afraid. Hinata wasn't afraid of him. That could be a good and bad thing. That could be a really, really good thing.
