Okay remember what I said about this chapter!


We drove to the movies in Kiba's car which was a volts wagon by the way 'Blue one!' Hehe I'm funny.

Kiba got the tickets and we went to the concession stand.

"Who wants popcorn? I'm buying." Kiba asked.

"No thanks I'll end up getting sick." I replied.

Kiba rolled his eyes, "No you won't its not even that scary."

"It's not the scariness I'm worried about it's the blood and the gore."

"Ooohhhh….." Kiba said.

Idiot… wait… where'd Naruto go? Where'd Neji go?

"Uh Kiba, where's Naruto and Neji?"

"Hmm? Oh they went to go play games while we got our snacks." he nodded towards the arcade next to the entrance.

Ooohhhh…

"Hey the movie is seating now! Let's go!" Kiba yelled to Naruto and Neji who were playing air hockey.


When we got to the theater that was showing the movie Kiba grabbed my arm and held me back, "Aya can I talk to you?"

"Sure." I nodded to Gaara telling him to head on into the theater.

I sat down with Kiba on the bench outside the door, "So what's up?"

Kiba sighed and looked at me, "I don't like the way Gaara cares for you."

I rolled my eyes, "Are we really gonna have this talk now?"

Kiba's face turned hard, "I'm serious Aya. First, he brings you back to the dorm after dark, he follows you EVERYWHERE, and he had is arm around you the whole field trip!"

I looked at him shocked, "Really, the WHOLE field trip? I was so focused on the creep who was staring at me…"

Kiba shook his head, "Aya, I just don't want you to get hurt."

I groaned, "Kiba, I can take care of myself. You don't need to worry about me. Now are we going to see a movie or what?"

Kiba got off the bench and we went to find the others in the now dark theater.


There were people going around and around on a wheel or something and constantly getting stabbed in the back by the machine. Others were getting ripped apart, and others were being slashed to pieces.

I couldn't take any more; I ran out of the theater, but not before an ear splitting scream rang through the speakers. I ran straight to the girl's room and puked my guts out into the toilet.

I stayed in there for several minutes before opening the door and walking out. Great now I feel like shit… stupid horror films! Now what should I do? Should I go back and watch the movie? No defiantly not that… maybe I should just wait in the lobby until the movie's over… sighhh…

I decided to just wait in the lobby for them. When I turned the corner there was someone in my path.

"Are you alright?"

I recognized Gaara's voice and smiled, "Yeah just puked my guts out that's all."

I went over to a table and sat down and Gaara sat next to me.

"So where are the others?" I asked as I took some more pain meds out of my purse and swallowed them.

"They didn't see you leave, they were too focused on the blood and gore in front of them." He replied.

You know that feeling you get? When you want to know something but your afraid to ask? When you're dying to know but not sure if it's worth it? That's how I felt, the whole thing was confusing. The fall, the walk, and then the field trip… Why was Gaara being so nice? I don't get it! Why is he being so nice to me? No one just becomes nice! What is going on! I'm so confused...

"Aya, is there something wrong?" Gaara asked.

I was so absorbed in my thoughts I forgot where I was.

"U-uhh, n-not really…" I lied.

Gaara gave me a questioning look, "Are you sure? You seem troubled."

I flinched, how can he tell! "W-well there is something that's been bothering me…"

"And what might that be?"

I took a deep breath, might as well get it out there and over with… "It's just that… when we first met, you didn't even notice me… and now… you've just been so nice and… I just don't get why… Everyone keeps saying how dangerous you are and that I should be careful but… the person they keep talking about… I just don't see in you… I keep thinking about it and it just keeps getting more and more confusing!... Does that make any sense to you?"

Hey, you know that feeling you get after the other feeling? The one when you asked and then automatically regretted it, without even hearing the answer? Yeah, that's how I felt then.

"You know what?" he asked. I turned to look at him but he was turned away, "I've been asking myself that question a lot lately…" he turned around with an epithetic face and I sighed.

"Are you hungry?" he mused.

I shrugged, "Well considering the fact that I have nothing in my stomach anymore… Yeah I am kinda hungry."

Gaara stood up and held his head out to help me up, "Come on, there's a Wendy's next door."

I smiled, "Wendy's!"


When we got our food we sat down at a booth, "So what did you and Kiba talk about?" Gaara asked.

I gave him a funny look, "Why do you need to know?"

He turned away but I could tell he blushed, just a little, "No reason…"

I smiled and shook my head, "Like I said he just wanted to tell me to be careful."

Gaara nodded and pushed his French fries to me, I chuckled, "Don't like fries?"

Gaara looked to the right a little, but I swear I think he smiled a little, "Too fattening."

I laughed and took a bite out of my cheese burger, What ever the real reason was for Gaara's kindness, at this point… I don't really care, just as long as he stays that way.

I smiled at Gaara, "Thanks for getting me food. I didn't realize how starved I was!"

He swallowed some of his salad and looked up, "Your welcome, I was pretty hungry too."

"Hey Gaara?"

"Hmm?"

"Is your hair really that color?" I asked jokingly.

He did another one of his 'almost smiles' and shook his head, "I never dyed my hair, it's always been like this."

I stared at his hair for a moment, "And the Sakura girl?"

He scoffed, "She does dye her hair."

I laughed, "I knew it!"

I looked down and realized my cheese burger was gone and frowned, "Where did me burger go?"

Gaara chuckled, "You ate it all!"

I busted out laughing, "Wow, I was really hungry!"

"Well since you're done we wanna go back to the theater?" Gaara asked as he threw away our trash.

I shrugged, "Sure the movie will be over in a few minutes anyway."


We went back to the theater and Gaara checked the big clock over the arch out side, "The movie should be over about now."

I sighed, and then I'll probably get another lecture from Kiba… uurrrrggg…..

We walked in the theater and headed back to the bench where we were, on the way I felt my feet flip out from under me. Stupid kid must've spilled some soda, I closed my eyes and braced for the extreme pain that was coming…

But I didn't fall.

I opened my eyes and realized that Gaara caught me, and was… holding me…


AAAHHHH! I know what your saying, "Don't stop there! It's too suspenseful!" yeah that's what my friend said but too bad! Don't worry I should have the next chapter up by Friday or Saturday, maybe sooner if I try.
