Gaara stood at the top of the stairs, watching this little scene unfold with abiding laughter as he smiled. Hinata was in nothing but a tube top Temari had bought for her and a pair of his boxers he'd sworn he lost. From the sights below he obviously had.
She held a brush in her hand, the CD player almost on full blast as she had her back facing him. She was singing the same song she'd been singing since he'd woken up. She seemed to love having the same song on repeat.
Kankuro walked by and tapped her on the shoulder suddenly from the kittchen and she turned, looking up at him as she blinked. "Yes?"
"I need my brush back, I brought you Temari's though. Great Karaoke, by the way." she shrugged and blushed as they tossed brushes at each other. Gaara finally couldn't take it anymore and laughed, trying to hold back his laughter from his spot.
Hinata seemed to notice though because she dragged him into the doorway and made him sing the song with her, her movements more practiced than his own. They both ended up jumping in and out of the hallway, being kids after all as they spun around each others arms.
Temari walked up the stairs with a sigh then, rubbing her forehead. She walked over and paused the CD player hesitantly, looking at the two before her as they calmed their laughter.
"Hinata, sweety... you have a phone call. It's your little sister." Hinata nodded, taking a hold of the portable phone.
"Hello Hanabi love."
Gaara sat on his bed already covered in sweat, it was no longer a mystery how his girlfriend stayed so thin. After a few minutes of giggled conversation Hinata hung up and tossed the phone back to Temari, turning the radio back on as she kissed Temari's cheek and started jumping up and down again.
Then she was dragged Kankuro and Gaara into her fun. She was full of energy ever since she'd spilled her guts to Gaara, she had even told Kankuro and Temari after tearful prying, getting sworn protection. Now having the full love of her new family... she was hyper.
It was something that slightly scared, but still made Gaara happy, if she was happy he was happy.
Around noon Temari came back up the stairs and smiled, unplugging the CD player as Hinata looked up, looking through the closet before hand. "Hinata, darling, we all know your having much more fun now, but let's go out to eat." Hinata happily agreed.
"I'm starving! I don't know how you two can keep going, I was just waiting for you two to stop." Temari laughed at Hinata's words and left them to get dressed and showered.
Gaara sat on his bed after his sister left, pulling his shirt off. Now that Hinata was more open with him she would undressed in front of him like she'd been doing for at least a week now, not even flinching anymore.
"Gaara? Do you know where my black emergency bra is?" she asked him, looking around the room shirtless.
"The one with the skulls on the tits?" he asked in an emotionless voice as he lifted up one of his own shirts, expecting it for clean or unclean smells.
"Yea, your favorite one." she rolled her eyes and kept looking as Gaara stood up and walked over to her back pack, pulling out the black contraption. He shot it at her and she caught it with one hand.
"Oh no... you found it. Now I have to put it on." she sighed in fake sadness, laughing gently as readied to put her arms through it.
"No way, I'm so gonna put it on you now." he walked over to her and took the bra from her fingers as she smiled and pulled his arms around her. He fashioned the bra on expertly, giving her left breast a light squeeze to make her blush and giggle.
"Naughty boy." he only smiled, hugged her waist as she swatted his hand away.
"Can't you just go like this?" he asked her with a whine, kissing her neck softly. She smiled and turned around in his arms with a laugh.
"Gaara, it's November. It's cold outside." he nodded and smirked.
"I know." he received a hard pop to the shoulder, something he was used to getting by now as he laughed.
"Gaara, not today, please." he sighed as he nodded and hugged her again. After a while Hinata walked down the stairs wearing a tight red corset top that Gaara had saved up to buy for her, along with one of Gaara's straight jackets over it. She also wore baggy black sweat pants and big furry snow boots courtesy of Temari.
Gaara walked down the stairs in an all black baggy attire, the kind you could hardly tell top from bottom in. He waited in the hall for his brother and sister and finally walked out into the snow with them all. Hinata was spinning around in circles happily and catching snow flakes on her tongue.
Temari was doing the same while Gaara and Kankuro just walked toward the car."I call shot gun!" Temari screamed as Kankuro sat in driver.
"Fine by me." Gaara crawled in the back seat after Hinata, pinning her down, hands above her head.
"Tem-chan Help! The raccoon monster has me!" Temari laughed and reached behind to the back seat and started tickling Gaara.
"No! CHEATERS!"
Hinata joined the attack in laughter as Kankuro lit a cigarette and turned on the radio. "Y'all need to keep the murder of my only other dick down to a lower volume." he said as he shook his head and turned the corner after starting the car.
The car was a newer model, a slight improvement from the truck, it also belonged to Temari and was only to be taken out on 'Special occasions.' When Hinata finally got bored of wrestling with Gaara she slipped out from underneath him and bummed a smoke from Kankuro with a bit of persuasion.
When she sat back into the seat she plopped against Gaara's stomach with a smile, blowing smoke at him from underneath his chin. "Hey." he smiled and took the cigarette from her as he blew the smoke away, inhaling a large amount from the cigarette before handing it back.
"You don't need to smoke, Hyuga." he told her, blowing smoke from his mouth away from her.
"Neither do you, but I don't see you with a patch on do I?" he rolled his eyes at her comment.
"You have a heart condition though, I don't." she rolled her eyes back.
"Yes and I have a vagina, I'm still smoking so fuck off." she took the cigarette back again and smiled.
Temari just laughed and patted Hinata on her head. "What in the world dear, you're about as insane as it comes." Hinata shook her head with a smile.
"I'm not insane, dad tried putting me in an asylum but they said I was too normal to be in one." Kankuro snorted as he stopped at a red light.
"That's about as true as Temari's boob si-Ow FUCK TEMARI!" Kankuro pulled his head out of the steering wheel with a bloody nose intact.
"My boobs are not rubber you cock sucker!" she handed him a napkin and crossed her arms. Hinata laughed at the sight and buried her face in Gaara's shirt, he shook his head and ruffled Hinata's hair as she calmed down.
"So, where are we going to eat, Kankuro oh bloody nose of... oh, the 4th time this week?" he asked, snatching the cigarette back from Hinata for a quick drag before giving it back when she began to whine.
"Some place expensive I guess." Kankuro said through the napkin at his nose as Hinata burst into another fit of giggles, looking out the window before pushing up the sun roof.
"Oh Hinata not again!"
"Kankuro stop the car." Temari and Hinata popped out from the top of the car, the blond looking to see what the younger had been doing. Hinata was waving at boys from their school happily, leaning over the top of the sunroof.
"Hey Kiba, Shino, guess what?" Hinata said over the radio.
"What?" Kiba asked, restraining his dog on his leash with ease as he stopped and smiled at his friend. Temari nodded at Hinata after a sigh, pulling her shirt up as they shouted.
"C CUPS!" before ducking back into the car as Kankuro drove off on que, shaking his head.
"Is there anyone who hasn't seen your boobs yet?" Kankuro asked the two girls as they laughed.
"Anyone who's over 23?" Gaara asked as he nipped Hinata collar bone through her shirt. "I never should let you outside again, you know that?" he scolded.
"Oh you enjoy watching guys get bloody noses." Temari spoke up, waving her hand at her brother. Kankuro sighed and took the napkin away, the blood drying slowly.
"Gai's or Kakashi's?"
"Good question...." Gaara said as he leaned back to think. The two best places in town, but the two places that competed the most. Well, mainly Gai competed, Kakashi just shrugged it off and was better at cooking anyway.
"Let's go to Kakashi's, less chance of confrontation there." Temari said after a thought, and Hinata laughed.
"No way, you just wanna go see that bus boy Shika."
"Shikamaru." Temari corrected with a flustered blush, "And yes, that too...." her younger brother rolled his eyes and sighed.
"You two wear anyone out I swear, Kankuro, what drug have you been giving them?" he asked with a serious expression.
Kankuro only laughed as he pulled into the parking lot. "Oxygen, and lots of it to get them high off it." Temari and Hinata rolled their eyes in turn as they got out of the car.
"Gaara-kun... it's still cold." Hinata made a puppy face and was wrapped up in Gaara's arms in less than a second, kissed and snuggled. As they walked inside, Temari ran up to the younger boy who was still her height and nearly knocked him over.
"SHIKA-KUN!"
"Good LORD, Temari, I love you too... now get off..." he attempted to pry her off anyway, "Hey you guys, how many?"
"Five." Kankuro said simply after a look from his sister.
"Someone meeting you here?" Shikamaru asked them, finally getting Temari to loosen her grip.
"No, your eating with us. That way Temari doesn't keep flagging you down just to chat with you." Shikamaru sighed and looked at the blond as she smirked.
"Woman you are way too troublesome..." she only smiled at him and kissed his cheek.
"You know you love it." he rolled his eyes and lead them to their table easily, calling break. Tonight was buffet night, so drinks were cheap, refills free. Gaara grabbed two plates and dragged Hinata over with him instantly, in the midst of asking her what she wanted to drink, he bumped into someone.
"Why if it isn't Neji the Rapest Hyuga." he snarled as he turned around, Hinata behind him.
"Gaara Sabaku, what a surprise. I see you brought my cousin?" he eyed her with distaste and held out a hand in a polite gesture, Gaara growled and shook his hand distastefully.
"Neji-kun, where are you?! Stop making me lose you!" a voice barked out and Neji winced as he tried to hide behind something, but a girl with bonbons in her hair came out and grabbed his arm.
"What the fuck are you doing wandering off again, get back to the table if your plate is full!" she glared at him, even if she was shorter than him. She turned and looked at Gaara and Hinata.
"Oh, hi there! Aren't you Hinata? You're were in my Advanced class in first year right?" she asked her with a smile and out stretched hand. Hinata nodded as she shook her hand, her smile brightened at the nod.
"I'm Tenten!" she leaned forward and whispered in Hinata's ear so only she would hear. "I know what he did, I had him neutered for you, not even he can get away with keeping a secret from me for that long..." she drew back with a bright smile as Hinata stared and blinked.
"Well, we've got to go. Lee will be waiting for us at the table. Hope to see you two later." she waved and jerked Neji's arm roughly when he didn't move with her.
"I said now!" her voice was back to a scary bark that made even Gaara shiver.
"I like her." Hinata said happily and simply.
"God? What did you do to these women?!" Gaara asked the ceiling as Hinata went to get her own food. Back at the table everyone was chatting and eating their fill, Hinata was throwing bits of her straw wrapper in Temari's direction while Temari flung the condensation from her cup at her. When Hinata would duck it would hit Gaara, causing him to glare at the two as they giggled.
Other patrons backed up in there seats at his death glare, but Hinata knew him better and knew where it was directed. The restaurant soon was going to open to a full bar, and that meant Kankuro would no longer be designated driver.
Rock paper scissors was played.
It turned out Gaara had to miss out on the booze and drive home.
"You all suck fucking horse balls!" Hinata only gave him a quick kiss and smiled.
"Oh shut up Gaara, I'll save a martini mix for you." she laughed as she whispered.
"You're not even old enough to drink!"
"Neither are you." Gaara crossed his arms at her remark and huffed.
"Fine." he sighed and rubbed his temples as Hinata went to the bar where Iruka sat serving the alcohol to people he knew to be minors. Did he care he might get fired? No, not really. He was the one who supplied the drinks for the bar in the first place.
After an hour and a half they all crawled back into the car after paying and Gaara drove home with the happiest thought. Even if he had drunken something, he wouldn't have a hangover.
Very high tolerance for alcohol.
Once inside his room, Gaara noticed Hinata pulling out two bottles. "I bought you something to make up for having to drive home, promised I would." she had only had one drink before being pulled away, so she wasn't drunk at least. She was back to her scenes after downing one shot glass of strong vodka.
She'd almost thrown up afterwards of course, her first intake of alcohol wasn't the best. Sure it tasted good as she said, but it burned afterwards. "Gaara." she sat on his bed beside him as he downed one of the bottles like a pirate.
"Hmm?" he took his mouth away from the bottle and looked down at her, she was leaning against his arm.
"I have such a fucked up life."
"All in the past, Hyuga." he took another swallow, then put the bottle down on his nightstand.
"Gaara."
"Yes, Hyuga?" she smiled up at him meekly before she buried her face in his shirt and mumbled something he couldn't hear.
"What? I couldn't hea-"
"I LOVE YOU!" she shouted over the blast of music that came from across the hall suddenly.
It then got silent.
Gaara didn't know if the music had gone off or if it was just him. She didn't have to say that. She shouldn't have said it, she said it all the time though but this...
But she had said it, and she meant it. And since when did she pull her shirt off so fast?
"Hyuga... what are you doing?" Hinata had crawled into his lap with a smile.
"Gaara... I love you." she kissed him quickly with a smile.
"I love you too but what the fuck are you doing with my pants?!" Hinata laughed as she threw his jeans across the room.
"On the bed, bitch boy."
