A/N: I do not own the characters.
Kankuro was playing in the kitchen one day when he heard his sister scream. He bounced up off the ground and ran to see what the problem was. To his surprise, it was just a small bug climbing up the wall on her room.
"Temari, it's just a stupid bug." He rolled his eyes at his foolish older sister.
"KILL IT!" Temari shrieked, shoving Kankuro closer to the bug. Now that he was face to face with it, it was kind of frightening after all.
"Hey..Temari? What if we got Gaara to do it.." He knew Gaara was rarely afraid of things. Besides, what was the point in a little brother if you couldn't make him do things for you?
"Yes..Go get him Kankuro." She picked up a water bottle and threw it at the bug. She screamed when it flew across the room onto the other side.
Gaara was in the living room, watching television and sucking on his fingers. When Kankuro entered the room, Gaara barely glanced at him. Kankuro turned to see what was on the TV and covered his eyes.
"Gaara, what are you watching?"
Gaara looked at his brother, then back at the television. It was a show about bugs (A/N: yeah you dirty thinkers, a show..ABOUT BUGS.).
"Bug." That was all Gaara said before turning back to the TV.
"Gaara, come with me." He took the small boy by the arm and dragged him into Temari's room. Temari looked trapped on the other side.
"GAARA KILL IT!" she pointed across the room at the bug. Gaara stuck his fingers in his mouth and sat down, watching it. Temari handed him a shoe and pointed at the bug again. "Hit it, Gaara." Gaara put the shoe down and smiled at his siblings. He never got so much attention from them before.
"He's so useless!" Kankuro glared at his younger brother. "He's four and he can't talk and he still sucks on his hand!"
"Kanky..?" Gaara looked up his older brother, who he admired. He held out his arms. Kankuro rolled his eyes and looked at him.
"Not until you kill the bug, you twerp." He pointed again at the bug.
Gaara stood up and walked over to the bug. He picked it up off the wall and left the room. He opened the backyard door and set the bug on the wall, then returned to his siblings. He looked at Kankuro and opened his arms again.
"Kanky..?"
"Fine." Kankuro sat on the floor and opened his arms. Gaara climbed onto his lap and hugged him tightly. Temari rolled her eyes and left. The whole time, Kankuro was whispering "This is so stupid.". Secretly, he thought it was amazing how much his baby brother loved him.
Kakashi happened to be outside the door. There's a picture of that moment somewhere.
