Chapter 2
*Two weeks in sunagakure. Seems pretty boring...and hot.* Kazumi groaned at her thoughts of staying in a desert. *Maybe I should've rejected. No, she would've beaten my 5'1 ass to a pulp.* 'You know, Gaara's kazekage now.' Kazumi's thoughts were interrupted. 'I'm so proud of that squirt.',Temari cooed. Kazumi only nodded. *Gaara? I haven't seen him since the preliminaries, when I went to support shikamaru.* They soon reached the beginning of the desert. 'You're really quiet without shikamaru by your side, ya know?', Temari suddenly spoke. 'Oh, I'm sorry, I was lost in thought.',Kazumi replied. 'You don't look anything like him. You're actually pretty.', Temari teased. Kazumi blushed. The entrance of the village was now in sight. They walked in silence until they got there. As soon as Temari walked through the gate, she was greeted by many villagers, while Kazumi stood a couple of feet behind her, away from the crowd. A hand grabbed her shoulder and she tensed up. 'Relax, it's only me.',Kankurou smiled. Kazumi sighed in relief. 'Follow me, I'll show you the way to the kazekage's tower, where you will be sleeping. Of course, with Temari, Gaara and I.' He stretched and let his arm fall on her shoulders, and continued their way to the tower. *Smooth.* Kazumi giggled at her thought. 'So, this is the tower.' Kankurou spoke as they reached the front door,' it consists of four floors. The first floor is like the living room with a kitchen. The second floor has three rooms. two are bedrooms and the other one is the council/ meeting room. The third floor is where you will be staying, It has two bedrooms. Finally, the fourth floor is Gaara's office.' Kankurou explained. Kazumi nodded. Kankurou lead her to her room. 'Thank you, Kankurou. I'll meet with you at the first floor to introduce myself after I unpack.', Kazumi smiled. 'whoa, you talk.', Kankurou teased,'I'll see you in a bit.' Then he left. She threw her bag onto the bed, and studied her room. It was very nice actually. It was a large room with a bed with more than enough space for one person, well furnished, and it had a bathroom connected to it. She unpacked and head down stairs.
Meanwhile, on the first floor.
'She's a cutie, Temari.' Kankurou snickered,' I'm glad you brought her instead of that lazy ass shikamaru.' Temari smirked. ' I knew you'd like her.' Gaara leaned on a wall across from the stairs and listened to the group of people converse. Annoyed, started walking across the room. 'Where you going, Gaara?' Temari asked. 'Yeah? Don't you want to meet her?' Added Kankurou. 'I have work to do.', replied Gaara in a cold voice as he head upstairs. Suddenly, Kazumi had bumped into him, causing them both to tumble down. Gaara groaned. He looked up and his eyes locked with kazumi's. She quickly picked herself up and held a hand out for Gaara. He glared at her and got up by himself. 'I-I'm sorry, lord kazekage.' Kazumi stuttered. He stared at her, causing her cheeks to tint pink. 'You have pretty eyes.', He complimented before he walked past her and up the stairs. Kazumi's face was now bright red. She sighed and looked at the people surrounding the living room. 'Hello, I'm Kazumi Nara. I'm a jonin originally from the leaf village, but transferred to the sound. I'm very thankful for you all letting me stay in your home. I'm here if anything, feel free to ask any questions.' She introduced. Baki stepped foward. 'Are you somehow related to Shikamaru? Of the leaf.' Kazumi nodded. 'He's my younger brother.' Baki raised an eyebrow. 'you two don't really have similar features.' He was right. Kazumi had scene-ish navy blue hair,her eyes were shimmering violet color with traces of yellow in them, she was 5'1, she was thin but had plenty of curves, she looked very young, and her additude was rather awkward but nice. Kazumi twirled her fingers shyly. 'Well, you see, the Nara's adopted me and I've lived with them since I was a year old.' Baki nodded. 'If that's all, I think I'll get some sleep for tomorrow. It was nice meeting you all.' Kazumi called out as she headed up the stairs. She walked up with her head down, deep into thought. *Dammit! My first impression on Gaara was me being clumsy and reckless. I'm such an idiot. When did he get so tall?!...and handsome.* She blushed at the thought. *He said my eyes were pretty. I wonder if he thinks that i'm pretty too. blah! nonsense.* She shook her head and pushed the bedroom door open as she made it to the third floor. Her head was still down when she heard a familiar cold voice. 'May I help you?' Kazumi felt her face heat up. She faced Gaara. He was standing next to his window, looking out at the village. *Oh. My. God. I walked into his room!* 'Um-um I just wanted to say goodnight.',She lied. Gaara turned. 'Goodnight.' With that, she immediately turned to leave. 'Wait, I didn't catch your name.' He said in an emotionless voice. Kazumi was half out the door when she spoke. 'Kazumi Nara. Sleep well, lord kazekage.' Then she sped off.
