Gasp! What will happen in this exciting chapter!

(Gaara's POV)

I stood in the door way of lady Tsunade's office, leaning on the frame. Her face was hard and very, very mad.

"YOU COULD'VE KILLED HER!"

I rolled my eyes and sighed, "She wasn't looking, bumped into me and I responded. I didn't mean to make her fall I just wanted some space."

Tsunade's face softened slightly, (just slightly) and groaned, "Even so she broke five ribs and punctured a lung, she could have suffocated! She…"

"I know, I know but she didn't." I cut her off.

She gave a heavy sigh at looked straight at me, "Alright fine, but as your punishment you are confined to the dorms for one month."

I narrowed my eyes; something was up.

"But," she continued.

Here we go. I thought to myself.

"You have to wait on Ayame and do everything she says until she's fully healed."

I stared at her thinking she had gone insane, "What!"

"You heard me. It's the least you could do after almost killing her."

I glared at her for several minutes, is she insane? If I didn't kill her then I'm defiantly gonna kill her this way! I gave up on my glare and looked towards the nurse's office where Ayame was. Stupid girl.

I was about to walk out of the building before Tsunade called out to me. "Gaara go talk to her before you go! Oh and help her back to her dorm room!"

I groaned deeply before ssslllloooowwwwllllyyy heading for the nurse's office.

I was about to open the door when Tsunade talked again, "And one more thing,"

I turned suddenly and gave her a death glare, Stop talking!

She narrowed her eyes, "If she gets hurt again, you will be expelled, and you know what that means."

I jumped a little at her words; if I get expelled I'll have to live with my dad again… not something to look forward to…

I nod quickly and walk thought the door. I find Sakura in the room with Ayame. I tilted my head slightly, "Sakura?"

She looked at me with no expression and then looked back to Ayame's bandaged side. "The nurse was out to I had to fill in."

I nod and look at Ayame, she was very pale and her eyes were dark, probably from loss of blood. Even though she looked sick she was remarkably beautiful; straight light brown hair that came to her shoulders, reddish lips and bright green eyes made her look exotic and interesting. I looked at her whole face and realized she was… smiling?

(Ayame's POV)

I lazily opened my eyes to see a girl with pink hair looking at me… I think she was trying to talk to me but I couldn't hear her…

The pain rush back to me so fast I almost screamed, it hurt so bad.

"Ayame can you hear me?" the pink haired girl asked.

I tried to speak but words wouldn't come out so I nodded. She half smiled and said her name was Sakura. Then she went back to working of my ribs. After the pain went on for a few minutes I just felt numb. I wanted to go back to sleep but Sakura wouldn't let me.

The principal came in and was talking to me and I could only catch a few things of what she was saying, something about Gaara's punishment… I must've dosed off…

I was taken out of my sleep-ish state when I heard a yell from across the hall.

"YOU COULD HAVE KILLED HER!" I recognized the voice and shuttered.

Then I realized what Tsunade was talking about when she was talking to me.

Sakura giggled, "Tsunade's a little cranky today."

I looked at her questioningly, "Today?"

She laughed at started wrapping my side with gauze. When she was almost finished Gaara walked through the door. He looked a little startled when he came in.

I smiled at him, to be polite.

He asked, "Sakura?"

She looked at him with no expression and then looked away. How rude. I thought., "The nurse was out so I had to fill in. she looked up at me and said, "I'll be right back, I need to get you some extra dressings for you side. She left without another word and I looked at Gaara… was he… staring at me?

I could feel myself blush when I asked, "Are you staring at me?"

He looked away and I sighed, "Not much of a talker are you?"

"Not really" he replied.

I sighed and toyed with my hair. "Tsunade told me what your punishment was." I started.

I turned back around to look at me, "And?"

"And I'll try to make it as painless as possible." I smiled.

He looked at me funny again and I frowned, "Why do you keep looking at me like that?"

He shrugged, "You're just… interesting…"

I raised an eyebrow and attempted to get off the bed but pain shout through me and I hissed.

Before I could open my eyes again Gaara was already at my side helping me up. I blushed slightly and nodded, "Thanks, I can walk from here."

He let go of me and walked next to me as we headed to the dorms. Man I've got some splainin' to do. Kiba's probably all worked up cause I missed lunch with him.
