Temari had me in one of her bone crushing hugs, she was almost crying with pure joy "We're going to be sisters…" She cried.
I rolled my eyes, Gaara had already left to go and do some paper work, being the Kazekage was hard work, I guess. But I wish he was still here, mostly because Temari kept going on and on about what I should wear to the wedding.
Kankuro was still on the floor, but I think he was in shock, which reminds me…
"Kankuro, why are dress up like a girl?" I asked.
Kankuro snapped out of it "W-well…" He said, suddenly nervous. "…Do you remember when you couldn't wake Gaara up?"
"Yeah" I nodded.
"He kinda…made me dress like one. And if I didn't, he would…" He shuddered "…Chop me…"
"Oh…ew" I said, wrinkling my nose in disgust.
Temari snorted "You'd make one ugly girl, but hey, being a boy is no picnic ether" She said.
"Shut up!" He yelled.
Temari rolled her eyes "Come on Rin, we're going to get you dressed up" She started pulling me toward the door.
"Why?"
Temari grinned "Tonight Gaara will be announcing the engagement"
"Do we have to?" I wined.
"Yes!" Temari said, dragging me out the room.
I stared at myself in the mirror, Temari really knew how to get dressed up.
I wore a red kimono with white underneath, and a white ribbon going round the middle. It was simple, yet, stylish. All my hair was pulled right back into a tight bun, showing all of my face.
Temari wore a sand coloured kimono.
"Lets go!" Temari said, dragging me away…again.
I sighed as Temari, finally, stopped dragging me. She's been dragging me all day, and showing me everything at this god damn party. What was the big deal! We were only getting married!
Yes, I have seen Gaara, for like a second.
It was like the first night all over again, at the festival where I finally got to see Gaara.
I looked up at the moon, there was no clouds, only the shining moon and stars.
"Rin!" A male voice yelled.
I turned round, I smiled. Naruto, Sakura, Kakashi, Sasuke, Lee and Gai were approaching me.
"So you're getting hitched" Naruto said, a big goofy grin on his face.
"Yes" I said happily.
"And if things don't work out, I'll let you come home with me!" Sakura said.
I raised an eyebrow "I'm sure everything will be fine" I said.
"But still, you're still so young" Kakashi said "Aren't you worried that you'll get stressed out at all?"
"Why would I be stressed?"
Kakashi shook his head "I cant tell you that, only experience can show you"
"Ok…"
"Kakashi's right you know…" Gai said, for once he was serious "…Don't you want to enjoy your youth before you get married?"
And for once, I wasn't scared of him, apart from the fact that it made me shiver, I was fine.
My brow frowned "Are you trying to talk me out of it?"
"No, we want you to look at all the sides. Is it really right for you to get married? You've got your whole life in front of you, think about it" Sasuke said, speaking for the first time.
I puffed my cheeks "I'm fine" With that, I stomped away.
Gaara's P.O.V
I watched as people talked and laughed, people with their loved ones. I wanted that life. And I hopefully was going to get it. With Rin. I smiled at the thought of us having a child to love and care for. But they didn't know that I was going to announce the engagement, they didn't even know I was engaged.
There was a light tap on my shoulder.
I looked round "Yes, Matsuri?" I said.
"Gaara, I want to tell you something…" She said.
Rin's P.O.V
I walked through the laughing crowd, I was heading to Gaara's office. I wanted to see him.
I made my way up the long, spiral stairs that lead to the Kazekage's office.
When I made it to his office, I didn't knock on his door. I silently opened the door. I could hear Gaara's voice and another voice that I didn't recognise.
I slipped my body through the space of the door, just in time to see the scene in front of me.
"…I love you, Gaara" A girl with short, light brown hair said. She got onto her tiptoes and pressed her lips to his.
My eyes widened. I gripped the fabric where my heart was.
"Gaara…" I whispered, my voice sounded strained, it was because it was closing in on me, making me feel choked up. I looked down.
"R-Rin…" I heard Gaara stutter, but I didn't look up. "…This isn't what it looks like!" He said, trying to defend himself.
I still didn't look up, I couldn't find the courage to. I could feel tears forming in my eyes as I felt my throbbing heart from within me, I wanted so much to rip it out, but Gaara has already done that. He broke my heart, making it shatter into a million pieces.
I had once been told, give your heart to a boy and they'll smash it.
How true that was, I just wanted to crawl in a hole and die at the moment. But why was I ashamed?
"Rin?" Gaara whispered, coming closer. I took a step back, not looking up at him. My eyes were swimming with tears, how could the best day of my life be the worsted day?
My breathing came out in pants, I tried to calm myself down, but all I got now was my tears slowly leaking over.
'It hurts so much, make it go away…'
I tightly closed my eyes and moved my right hand to my left hand.
"Rin, please believe me! This isn't what it looks like" He said.
I ignored him and reopened my eyes, pulling of the engagement ring.
"I'm sorry Gaara…" I let the ring drop to the ground and I looked up at him, my face was covered in tears. His eyes watched as the ring dropped to the floor.
When it did, he looked back up at me, looking me in the eye.
I couldn't look at him, I had to look away. It made my throat tighten and my heart ache.
"Please don't do this to me…" He said, his voice pained.
"Gaara…" The girl next to him put her arm around his.
A cry escaped my mouth as more tears fell from my eyes.
"Is this how it is…?" I whispered quietly "…Then I'm sorry…" My voice got louder "…I wish I never even met you!" I screamed, I then turned around and started running.
I could hear Gaara yelling my name, screaming for me to come back.
"I'm sorry…" I cried as my heart throbbed again.
I know, she overreacted, but what would you do in her situation! I'm sure you'd be angry, upset or even on the ground in tears! Oh and, please review!
