KISA UCHIHA I MARRIED SASUKE
Chapter 5: Make Me Smile Make Me Cry
As they entered the gates, Sakura looked at Gaara. He showed no emotion on his face. She looked at the town and no one was there.
"Where is everyone." was all Sakura could ask.
"I'm not sure but keep close to me anyway just in case." Gaara said while putting an arm protectively around her waist. Sakura blushed at this simple gesture of affection.
They walked in silence the only thing heard was the occasional clicking of their sandle's. Gaara was beginning to worry even more.Damn it where is everyone, I'm the Kazekage i should have been here to protect everyone. Gaara thought already fearing the worst. Gaara almost began to give up all hope when they heard a familiar voice.
"Oi Gaara! Over here." Gaara looked over in the direction of the voice and was relieved to see Temari standing there waving her hands.
"Where is everyone why is is everything so quiet." Gaara questioned immediately.
"Everyone was ordered to stay put and quiet in their houses while Kankuro and i fought with Itachi Uchiha. We told them they weren't aloud to come out until we were positive that it was safe. I'm still not sure if hes or any other Akatsuki members are lurking around." Temari said.
" Oh i see, DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED I WAS!" Gaara yelled at here while throwing her bloody headband at her. Sakura looked at Gaara and then at Temari's shocked face.
"Panda-kun, calm down be happy that shes safe, along with everyone else." Sakura said in small timid voice
"Yeah he took that from me, i got a small gash across my neck, but nothing vital. So its panda-kun between you two now and you even have your hand around her waist. How Cute!" Temari said while jumping up and down hugging Sakura and Gaara. "My little brother is finally growing up after all these years. So are you two dating or what is it between you two."
"No no were not dating." Sakura said pulling away from Gaara's grasp. " Hes just my bodyguard being overprotective and all you know how it is." Sakura said blushing.
"Haha ok sure whatever. Well come on Naruto and some other Konoha nin are here and they are worried about you two." Temari said while dragging them to the Kazekage tower.
As they entered Gaara's office Sakura was ambushed by a loud blond shinobi.
"Sakura-chan, you got back safely!" Naruto yelled while squeezing her.
"Naruto...Let go...I cant breath." Sakura said gasping for air. After Naruto didn't let go for a couple minutes Sakura gathered chakra into her fist and punched him sending him though the wall.
"You know your gonna end up paying for that wall." Gaara said with a small smile.
"No Naruto will, its his fault that its broken anyway." Sakura said causing Gaara to chuckle a little. Everyone looked at them like they had grown and extra head. Was this the pair that they left in the woods, and did Gaara just laugh?
As night fall came they were all taken to rooms that they would be staying in for their couple of days in Suna while everything got straightened out. Hinata, Tenten, and Sakura were all sharing a rather large room with three nicely sized beds. Naruto and Neji were sharing a slightly smaller room but they had comfy beds non the less.
The girls has just laid their heads down and were about to fall asleep when they heard a small rock hit their glass window. At first they all ignored it, but who ever was throwing the rock was certainly getting on Sakura nerve.
"Tenten, Hinata, one of your boyfriends is trying to get your attention, go tell them to go be romantic during normal hours." Sakura said in a slightly harsh voice.
"I doubt its Neji he doesn't seem like the type, but Naruto does. Its probably for you Hinata." Tenten said while turning away from the girls. Hinata wasn't the type to argue so she went over to the window and opened it and smiled. She poked her head back in the window and turned towards the girls.
"Nope its not for me." Hinata said while walking towards her bed.
"Ok maybe I'm wrong maybe Neji can be a romantic guy." Tenten said as she crawled out of bed towards the window. She poked her head out and laughed.
"Not for me either." Tenten said as she walked back towards her bed. Sakura sighed tired of this game that the girls were playing.
"Well its not going to be for me!" Sakura yelled. Neither of the girls said anything or made any moves they just smiled and looked at her. "I guess I'm going to have to be the one to yell at this person and tell him he has the wrong window. Sakura crawled out of preparing her speech in her mind. Oh was this person gonna pay, she had just gotten comfortable in bed.
"Look buddy you have the wrong-" Sakura began yelling when she saw Gaara standing out there with a smirk on his face. Sakura looked at Hinata and Tenten they just giggled at her. Gaara then sent sand up to her and told her to step onto the sand. She looked back at the girls one more time.
"Ill be back later." She told them as she stepped onto the sand.
"Don't do anything i wouldn't do." Tenten yelled from her bed causing Sakura to blush.
When Sakura reached the ground she began to question Gaara.
"What is it that you wanted that you had to wake all the girls up?" Sakura said with a small smile.
"Maybe i missed you a little bit." Gaara said as he pulled her close to him. He then placed a small kiss on her lips a brief one their lips barely even touched.
"You call that a kiss." Sakura said with a smirk plastered on her face.
"No i call this is kiss." Gaara said as he once again kissed her, but this time with much more passion. Sakura let out a small moan into his mouth when he bit down on her lip lightly. They eventually pulled away. "Was that any better." Gaara asked.
"Just a bit better." Sakura said. "So did you just miss me or what." Sakura questioned thinking it was a bit weird that he pulled her out of bed because he missed her. Romantic yes but also a bit weird.
"Well i missed you and i wanted to show you something." Gaara said and in a matter of seconds a vortex of sand appeared around them and they reappeared in a small garden filled with many different beautiful flowers.
"Oh panda-kun, this is so wonderful." Sakura said while running off to go look at different flowers, but not before she gave him a chaste kiss on the cheek.
They sat in the grass for what seemed like hours. Eventually Sakura fell asleep while sitting on Gaara lap. He picked her up and carried her back to the room that she was staying in. He crept in quietly as to not disturb the other girls, but right when he left Tenten and Hinata sat up and began to wake Sakura up and bug her about what happened.
"So what happened. Give us details girl." Tenten said after fully waking up Sakura. At first she was slightly agitated that she was awaken, but immediately felt better after thinking about her night.
"It was romantic, he took me to a beautiful garden with lots of different flowers." Sakura said with a gleam in her eye.
"Aww." Hinata said also imagining what it must have been like.
"We were sitting there and he actually opened up to me for once he talked to me and he kept on whispering romantic nothings into my ear." Sakura said
"You sure picked a good one, i wish Neji would do that to me." Tenten said.
"Well i guess we should get to bed who knows what time they are gonna try and wake us up tomorrow." Sakura said and the other two girls agreed.
The next morning came to soon for any of the girls liking. They were awaken by Naruto knocking quickly and opening the door
"Wake up sleepyheads!" Naruto yelled. Causing Hinata jump in fear. She was defiantly not expecting Naruto to come in.
"Morning Hinata, i-"He began but then realized what Hinata was wearing. He blushed immediately making Hinata remember that she had gotten hot during the night and had taken off her shirt and was only in her bra. She screamed and quickly covered herself up. The other girls were yelling at Naruto telling him to get out. When Neji came up wondering about all the commotion.
"Whats going on." Neji said in his usual cold voice.
"This baka came in and saw Hinata without a shirt on!" Tenten yelled while pointing a finger at him.
"You what!" Neji yelled
"Now calm down Neji, it was an accident i didn't mean to." Naruto began but was soon being chased around the room with Neji trying to kill him.
"Would you two leave so we can get dressed." Sakura yelled causing everyone to jump in surprise. Naruto and Neji, then slinked out out the room mumbling something about scary woman.
After the girls were finished getting dressed they all went to meet up with the guys to get breakfast. When they found them they were already sitting around the table. Gaara was reading the paper, Neji was glaring at Naruto, and Naruto was complaining about their not being any ramen stands.
"Morning panda-kun." Sakura said as she kissed him on cheek
"Hn" Was all he said in reply. Oh how Sakura hated when he replied like that it was so rude.
"Did you want some coffee panda-kun." Sakura asked. He just set down his paper and sent her the usual Gaara glare that he sent people when he was annoyed. Sakura immediately looked down at the table. He just sighed and pushed out his chair. Sakura was expecting him to come up behind her hug her and say he was sorry, but it never came. He just walked right past her and out the door. Everyone was silent and looked at Sakura as she stared at the door with a glare that looked like she wanted to burn that door down. Sakura frustrated went back to her room and locked the door. She heard a knock on her door.
"Hey Sakura its me Tenten, can i come in?" Tenten asked in quiet voice. Sakura reluctantly got up and unlocked the door.
"I don't know whats wrong with him one moment hes Mr. Romantic, the next hes glaring and ignoring me. What is he bipolar or something. Did i say something that upset him, alls i said was good morning and asked if he wanted coffee. Well if he wants to play the game like this then fine." Sakura said with a hint of revenge flickering in her eyes.
"Sakura you know revenge isn't the way to fix this problem. Maybe just try talking to him." Tenten said trying to offer suggestions.
"I try talking to him and he acts like that, I'm sorry Tenten, but i think i need to do this my way." Sakura said. Tenten just nodded understandably.
Later that day everyone was sitting in the kazekage's office talking about what they were gonna do. Sakura really wasn't paying attention to them but she caught bits and pieces of the conversation. It wasn't until she heard Gaara say her name that she was brought back to reality.
"huh, what sorry." Sakura said blushing.
"Would you please pay attention." Gaara said trying his hardest not to yell at her again.
"Sorry Kazekage-sama." Sakura said knowing that he hated being called them. She saw him cringe a bit when those words left her lips.
"Call me Gaara." He said looking at her. -Sigh- shes mad about this morning, so were back to calling me the Kazekage instead of Gaara or even panda.
"Oh ok sure whatever, Kazekage-sama." Sakura said looking out the bay window behind him. Gaara just ignored her the rest of the meeting. Everyone could feel the tensity building up between them, but no one dared say anything.
After the meeting was finally over they were walking back to the place where they were staying when a guy made a cat call at Sakura. Normally Sakura would have flipped him off and called him a pervert, but today she felt like doing something different to see Gaara reaction. She gave him a flirty wave back. Shes knew Gaara saw her and she knew he was watching at the guy came over to her. He was flirting with her like crazy and Sakura was flirting back. Sakura could feel and see the sand starting to swish around her violently, she smiled knowing that her plan was working. After exchanged names and other information, they were on their way again.
Once they reached the place they were staying Sakura was about to go into her room and sit and think for a while, when Gaara pulled her aside. He pulled her into another room where they could be alone.
"What the hell was that all about back there." Gaara yelled
"I don't know what your talking about Kazekage-sama." Sakura said trying to get around him to leave.
"You know very well what I'm talking about Haruno, you were flirting with that guy." After he said that he saw a bit of hurt in her eyes when he called her by her last name.
"Well you made it perfectly clear this morning that we have nothing going on and last night meant nothing." Sakura yelled
"Oh would you stop being so dramatic about everything for once." Gaara yelled back. Once he said that he immediately regret it, she opened her eyes in shock and they seemed to glaze over.
"Your right, I'm just being over dramatic." Sakura said while pushing him away and walking back to her room and slamming the door shut and locking it. Once she got into the room she wanted to run to her bed and cry but she was shocked to see Neji and Tenten making out on Tenten's bed.
"Oh I'm so sorry i should have knocked." Sakura said looking at the door she was about to leave when she heard Gaara on the other end banging on the door yelling at her to open the door. She pulled her hand back from the door, but then looked over at Neji and Tenten and started crying.
"Im sorry." She said to them again.
"Its ok Sakura, we were just leaving anyway." Tenten said and they headed towards the door.
"Thanks Tenten, please don't let him in. Ill let him in on my own time." Sakura said still crying.
Gaara hearing the door unlock was surprised to see Tenten and Neji come out and not Sakura. He was just about to push past them to get in when Neji grabbed Gaara by his collar.
"I don't know what your doing to this girl to cause her so much pain, but you better cut it out." Neji said, he was always protective of the ones he cared about. He then jerked away in pain as Gaara said was starting to squeeze his arm.
"You don't know what your talking about Hyuuga, i suggest you stay out of this if you wish to live." Gaara said in his normal icy voice. The couple soon left. Gaara then went to open the door but found that Sakura has relocked it.
"Open the damn door before i break it down myself." Gaara yelled from the other end
"Go away, i don't wanna be to dramatic around you." Sakura yelled back
"You see this is what I'm talking about Sakura, when you act like this, you take everything like it was the end of the world." Gaara yelled through the door causing Sakura to cry harder.
"Gaara! What the hell is your problem." He was surprised to see the usual timid quiet Hinata behind him with her hands on her hips.
"Cant you see your only hurting her worse. Last night Sakura was so happy this morning she was so happy, and you Mr. I don't want to show my feelings had to bring her down. And now your making her feel worse." Hinata yelled. Gaara didn't know what to do he couldn't attack this girl, he wouldn't sink so low as to do that.
"Hinata I-" Gaara began but she cut him off.
"I don't want to hear anything from that no good mouth of yours. Every time you open it seems like something foul comes out. Now your going to go apologize to Sakura right now and learn to treat her right or so help me god." Hinata yelled as she took the key from above the door and unlocked the door and shoved him in. Gaara felt pretty dumb, he didn't know there was a key there the whole time. Hinata just stood in the door way with tapping her foot and with her hands on her hips.
"Sakura I-" Gaara began but then stopped and looked back at Hinata she just glared at him and he continued. "You know I'm no good with words, but i want you to know that i love you and that I'm sorry. I'm being a jerk to you and insensitive to you, even though you have done nothing wrong." Gaara stopped talking and walked in front of her and grabbed her hands. "please forgive me for being well for being me. It took Hinata for me to realize it but i realized that its not you who needs to change its me." Gaara finished off looking Sakura in the eyes. She hugged him, and apologized for freaking out the way she did. She then looked at Hinata and smiled at her and couldn't help but laugh. Gaara looked down at her and asked her why she was laughing.
"Of all the people to come and set you straight in you place it was quiet timid Hinata." Sakura said as Hinata blushed and was gonna walk away only to see Naruto, Neji, and Tenten standing behind her.
"Wow i never knew you had that kind of sternness in you." Tenten said while patting her on the back. Neji just walked away saying woman.
"Don't forget you two were heading off tomorrow morning. I have a feeling you two wont be leaving this room anytime soon. They always said that make up sex was the best kind." Naruto said over his shoulder while narrowly dodging a kunai that Sakura threw at him.
