Chapter 17

Gaara fluttered his eyes open and looked around him. He was lying on a large bed and he was inside of an expensive looking room. He sat up straight in the bed winced as some of his muscles hurt as he moved. Gaara smirked in triumph as he remembered everything that went on last night. He finally got Naruto into bed with him, and the boy didn't even protest once.
'YES!' Gaara thought and did a victory dance in his head.

Gaara looked around and finally realized that his kitsune wasn't here, and that's when he smelt pancakes. He wrapped himself in a sheet so that he wasn't walking around completely naked and headed out of the bedroom.

He entered the small kitchen and watched as his kitsune flipped another pancake into the air. Naruto was just wearing boxers and Gaara took his time to look over the tanned shoulders, slim waist, and smooth back. He also saw that the boy's neck was covered with hickeys, which told everyone that he was Gaara's and no one else's to touch.

Naruto finished cooking his pancakes and placed them on a plate. He turned around, actually more like limped around and spotted Gaara in the doorway. Gaara realized the smaller boy's walking problem and smirked, but his smirk disappeared and turned into worry when he saw Naruto's teary expression.

"Gaara, I think I've definitely been raped this time. 'cause… 'cause when I woke up, I was naked and my ass really hurts. And there was…. Well… 'white-stuff' all over me this morning. I think you might've been raped too 'cause you were next to me…naked…a-and…" he trailed off and hiccupped; dropping the plate with a clatter and falling to a chair. Immediately though his eyes widened and he jumped up with a gasp of pain; grabbing his ass as tears trailed down his face.

Gaara swallowed thickly, he shuffled away from the doorway he'd been leaning on and stared at Naruto who was nodding back at him; probably thinking his shock was from "being raped". When in reality…the dobe didn't remember a thing!

Furious, Gaara turned around with such speed that the sheet raveled around his legs, he uncaringly stormed out of the hotel room and slammed the door behind him before stomping down the hall and pausing for breath in front of a small plant. A gust of wind from apparently nowhere touched his skin suddenly and he shuttered before turning around; there, caught in the door was his sheet, and there; next to his door, was a maid rounding the corner. Immediately Gaara grabbed the small palm and shoved it in front of him, his face stained red as he ripped off a leaf and held it behind his butt before he lifted up the pot and ran in the opposite direction; diving into an elevator and sighing in relief when the doors closed.

The red head whose face was darker than his hair leaned against the metal wall of the elevator and closed his eyes, his heart beat going slightly back to normal. In an instant though, it was sent spiraling upward when there was a slight cough next to him.

Gaara's eyes shot open and slowly lingered to an old woman next to him, her eyes wide but shooting straight forward, the groceries she was holding were quivering and soon Gaara's translucent aquamarine eyes followed her gaze to the doorway; the metal reflected their own selves back at them, though the woman wasn't staring at herself, no, her eyes were locked like a target to where the plant had moved slightly too far to the right, exposing the Kage. Gaara gulped and straightened himself out, counting away the seconds as the elevator sleuthed downward.

Meanwhile a certain blonde dobe was shuffling around the hotel room in sheer agony, he kicked a pancake and sent the burnt circle rolling underneath the table before he sighed and slowly straightened himself out; wincing at the wave of pain from his tailbone area. He'd just gauzed and bandaged his ass to no help and now was unsuccessfully cleaning to distract himself from Gaara's reaction.

Honestly, Naruto was scared too, and angry. But he didn't storm out of the room; clog the door with a sheet and—KAMIS!

Rushing to the window despite all the pain it caused him Naruto's eyes widened at the streak of red he caught rushing down the large pathway from the hotel. He was holding two palm leaves and a frightened as well as deer-in-headlights expression. Behind him though was a sight that caused memories Naruto didn't want to remember to come up; there were about a hundred old woman chasing him, and of course the occasional old man in tight pink pants. A dust cloud formed around him and Naruto squinted to see Gaara just to see him disappear in a smaller but obvious puff of blue smoke.

The blonde sighed in relief. That is, until an obvious 'Pop!' was heard behind him. Spinning around and groaning at the sudden movement Naruto just caught glimpse of Gaara's foot as he stormed into the bedroom and two palm leaves drifting to the floor. Naruto paused; running a hand through his hair before sighing and hobbling to the room himself. He leaned against the doorway and peered in. About three seconds later with his mouth dropped open and drool leaking to the floor Gaara sat up and glared at him, tossing the sheets over his naked body.

That's when it hit him. And oh no, for once Naruto didn't have to get knocked over the head a few times to clue him in; No, this time the sight of Gaara's body brought back fonder memories…from…last night. Naruto swallowed what could've been a rock and shuffled forward to the bed. He scratched his head and dropped his hand, repeating the process several times before opening his mouth to speak.

The sheets flew to the side as Gaara sat up.

"We had sex Naruto! You weren't raped!" the red head shouted, cutting off Naruto who still stood with pink-stained cheeks and an agape mouth.

"I…I know. I mean; now I know! I actually umm…" he trailed off at the glare from Gaara that almost said in disbelief 'So you consider our being in bed together to be rape!?' Gaara fumed for a moment, pausing only momentarily at the sad look from Naruto before he shot to his knees and grabbed the blonde by the back of the neck.

"You're going to pay up for this later." He growled with a smirk before dragging Naruto down to the bed in a kiss. The blonde worked his lips back for a moment, before jumping off the bed and howling in pain.

"My ass!" he moaned, crawling into the bathroom. Gaara eyed the boy with a raised eyebrow before snorting in laughter at his stupidity and dropping back down onto the bed.

Naruto started putting on some clothes, with great difficulty, and walked into the bedroom to see Gaara fully dressed as well. The redhead was sitting, cross legged, on the floor and he had a pen and pencil in his hand.

"What-chya doin?" Naruto asked sitting next to Gaara.

"Something important, I'm still a Kage remember? So why don't you go entertain yourself." Gaara said and began writing something down. Naruto put his hands on his hips and huffed at the redhead.

"I'm not sending you away or anything but I just don't want you to read what I'm going to write." Gaara said gave Naruto a quick kiss on the cheek, to make it so he wasn't being too bossy. The blond let out another huff and limped to the other side of the room. He plopped himself down and lay on his stomach; making sure not to hurt his butt. Naruto closed his eyes and tried to think of a way to make it up to Gaara, 'cause he seemed really pissed about the whole event this morning.

Gaara rolled his eyes and began writing. He wanted to write a letter to his older sister, Temari, and ask her if it would be all right if Naruto lived with them. Gaara knew that if Naruto and he were separated, both of them would be heart-broken.

Dear Temari,

…………
Gaara didn't know what the hell to write to her. I mean he's asking his older sister if a Konoha ninja can live in their home, which is in Suna.

So it took Gaara about an hour to write the letter, but he finally finished. He looked around and spotted Naruto curled up in a corner and sleeping. Gaara walked over and poked the boy to try and wake him up. The blond didn't move and Gaara shook the boys shoulder instead, but Naruto still didn't wake up. Gaara, getting kind of annoyed now, slapped the smaller boy's ass, causing him to yell in pain and stand up straight.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?" Naruto yelled while he rubbed his ass with his hands to try and sooth the pain.

"You wouldn't wake up and I need to know where the nearest post office is." Gaara said simply and stood up straight, easily towering the other boy.

"What, for a letter? You know you could just use the phone…." Naruto said and pointed at a phone that hung in the kitchen. Gaara slapped himself mentally and rubbed his temples, where a headache was now forming. He forgot that he had a phone, since he always just sent letters. Gaara tore up the letter he spent an hour making and stormed into the kitchen, grabbing the phone.

Naruto shrugged and went back to sleep.

Gaara dialed the buttons and waited for one of his siblings to pick up.

Brinnnnngggg Briiinnnnnngggggg

"Hello?" A male voice spoke.

"Kankuro, if Tamari's there give her the phone." Gaara demanded, no matter how much affection his siblings now directed toward him, and despite the way Naruto had changed Gaara, the Kage would not, nor had the ability to ever be nice to his brother and sister. But then you have to remember that they abandoned him until he was forced to threaten them into his doings, in which case…love was a hard thing to build; none the less courtesy.

"Umm…. No. Actually she's on her way there to see you. She was worried about you, since you've been gone for so long and all. You know how she gets…"

"When did she leave?"

"About four hours ago." Kankuro answered. Gaara cursed inside his head, because Naruto's house isn't really livable right now, and Temari was going to be here in less than an hour.

"You still there, Gaara?"

"Keep Suna safe, it'll be your head if anything happens." Gaara hung up the phone, not bothering to wait for his brother's reply and walked back into the bedroom.

"Naruto get your ass up. We need to go. Now." Naruto looked up at Gaara with a confused expression.

"What's wrong?"

"Just come on." Gaara curtly replied. He grabbed the boy by his arm and dragged him outside, not caring for Naruto's small cries of pain.

Walking at a brisk pace, the Kage was practically dragging Naruto, and he eventually picked him up in a bridal style, being careful not to damage further what he'd all ready hurt. Gaara didn't really want to be mean to Naruto, not even when he'd made him angry, but the very fact that he'd see someone from Suna was irritating him. The red head scoffed suddenly, the noise startling Naruto who was dozing in his arms as the blonde stared up at him.

"Please tell me what's wrong Gaara…" Naruto asked carefully, clasping his hands together and pleading with his eyes. Gaara shrugged forward in an even faster pace, his tone almost hysterical.

"It's just funny is all: I'm still asking permission from those who've treated me badly until I become Kage, until I became stronger. Now that I have power I shouldn't have to ask things of them, but I do anyway. Stupid that I do, isn't it?" Gaara wasn't looking at the blonde, at anything, really; he just made his way forward as fast as he could without Naruto, however, the next thing the blonde said caused him to stop dead in his tracks;

"It's nice."

"What?" Gaara demanded immediately, so stunned that he staggered to the side, and his back banged into the wall of a building. Naruto clutched Gaara's black shirt and pulled himself into a different position as gingerly as he could without harming himself, then, tilting his chin against Gaara's ribcage he let out a sigh.

"Most people…in your position would go mad with power; they'd always be bossing people around, maybe even killing people who disobeyed them. I like that about you, Gaara, you're just a really good person. Others, they like it about you to. It's one of the things that makes me love you. I do love you, you know."

Smiling, Gaara slid to the ground and pulled up his knees; cradling Naruto's body to his while he rested his chin in the sun stroked, golden blonde hair. Gaara inhaled deeply and placed a kiss on Naruto's cheek,

"I love you too Naruto." He whispered with all the emotion he could put into the words. Naruto looked just about ready to cry, but the Kage stopped it by standing and running off down the street again. It was an amazing moment, but the Kage had business to attend to, however his hold on Naruto was softer than before, the same with his attitude; and a smile was genuinely fixed on both the boy's faces.
