Morning, the sun brightly shown through Kiba's windows. Kiba rubbed his eyes and snuggled more closely to his pillow. Then he realized… he was in his living room… and his pillow was Gaara's shoulder. Kiba sat up in the realization and said blushing, "Ummm… sorry Gaara… you could have woken me up…."

"I know…. You look cute when you sleep."

Kiba smiled, he wished he could see Gaara sleep, but he knew Gaara couldn't.

" oh, Me and Akamaru have to train with Hinata today… you wanna come?"
Gaara took this into consideration… 'Hinata equals evil', that was the only thing that popped into his mind.

" Yes, I'll go."

Kiba smiled and kissed Gaara.

The two left the house, Kiba once again leaving his jacket. Hinata was waiting for Kiba in front of the academy.

" Well it's about you showed up. I thought you had chickened out."

" Sorry…" Kiba said rubbing his neck. His neck usually hurt when he woke up but Gaara's shoulder was so comfy.

Kiba stood in front of Hinata and Gaara stood to the side of their arena. Akamaru took his place by Kiba and readied himself for battle. Hinata activated her byakugan and Kiba and Akamaru looked at each other coming up with a plan. During their thought Hinata charged at Kiba and gave him a jab in the wrist. As a reflex Kiba kicked her in the face still grabbing his wrist. Hinata flew about five feet and landed on her back. Slowly she stood up and charged at him again poking him in various chakra points and ended it off with a punch close to his heart. Kiba stumbled backwards gasping for air. Gaara caught him before he could hit the ground.

Hinata smiled and said, " I won this round Kiba!"

She turned around and was about to skip off before turning around and saying, " Oh yeah! Kiba, Sasuke's returned!" Kiba's eyes widened and he stopped breathing, for a moment Gaara thought he had died.

But then he gasped, "w-What did you say?"

" You heard me Sasuke's back… and you might wanna watch your back… you remember what happened last time!" She smiled and ran off.

Kiba was still having difficulty breathing thanks to Hinata's final blows, so Gaara took him to the hospital.
Gaara was confused, " Kiba… what happened between you and Sasuke?"

Kiba's eyes widened a bit and he turned away and said, " I'd rather not talk about it…"

"Why not?" Gaara asked.

Just then Ino came running into the room Kiba and Gaara were in.

" Kiba! Sasuke's back and he said Akamaru better watch out!"

Kiba buried his face in his hands And Gaara looked towards Ino.

" What happened?" Gaara asked again, there was something they were hiding from him and he wanted to know.

" What happened was…" Ino started, " About three years ago after the Chunnin exam… before Sasuke left…"

" He stole Akamaru from me…" Kiba continued.

" So Kiba went to go get him and…"

" Sasuke said I had to pay a price."

" I went with Kiba, just in case…. But what he wanted wasn't money or power…what he had wanted was…"

"Me" Kiba said through his fingers.

Gaara looked at Kiba who looked really upset and angry.

" So Kiba and I went to get Akamaru… and Sasuke wanted a kiss…"

" 'Of course not just any kiss'" Kiba said mimicking Sasuke.

" He wanted it to be a full French kiss…."

" There was no other way… he said he would kill Akamaru if I didn't… What was I supposed to do?" Kiba said he looked as if he were about to cry.

" So of course Kiba had to get kissed by him…."

" It was horrible…," Kiba added. "He ruined a first for me…"

" And even then I still had to beat Sasuke up in order to get Akamaru." Ino said.

Kiba had looked down and Gaara saw tears falling on to the bed.

" I hate him… I wish he would die!" Kiba said fully crying now.

Gaara was scared, he never knew what to do when people cried. He pulled Kiba closer so he could hug him, and then gave him a kiss. Kiba seemed to cheer up and cried on Gaara's shoulder. Ino looked towards the doorway and saw Hinata there, her eyebrow twitching. She walked in the room and Gaara glared at her. What is she doing here? She always ruins every thing… Seriously what does she want from me? … GASP! She's in love with me! Great not again…

Hinata smiled at Gaara, paying no attention to Kiba. Kiba had now stopped crying and was sitting up in his bed.

" So how long is Sasuke gonna be here? " Kiba asked quietly.

" Forever!" Hinata replied smiling.

"Oh I bet YOU'RE enjoying this…" Kiba said eyebrow twitching.

" Actually, it is kind of funny!" Hinata replied.

Ino sighed… they always fought. She looked at Gaara who was glaring at Hinata. A cough was heard at the doorway and all turned to see who it was.

" Well, long time no see…" Sasuke said as he walked through the door.

" The longer the better!" Ino replied.

" Ino." Sasuke said.

" Bastard." Ino replied.

Sasuke smirked. He looked at Kiba who was playing nervously with the blanket.

" Well Kiba, you look better from the last time we spoke." Sasuke said smiling

" Well, you look more retarded." Kiba replied still not looking at him.

" Awww, don't be mad Kiba. I told you I'd be back." Sasuke said running his fingers through Kiba's hair. Kiba swatted his hands away and moved closer to Gaara.

Sasuke looked, this was the first time he'd noticed Gaara sitting there.

" What are you doing here Gaara? Don't you have some people to kill or villages to destroy?"

" Don't you have some children to molest?" Gaara replied.

Sasuke's eyebrow twitched. "Ha, that's funny Gaara."

Sasuke looked at Kiba who had gotten out of the bed and was standing next to Gaara.

" So is Gaara your body guard or something" Sasuke asked.

" You wish I was his body guard." Gaara replied.

" What is that supposed to mean?" Sasuke asked.

" I'm part body guard, part Kiba's boyfriend. More of the second one though." Gaara replied.

Kiba smiled and moved closer to Gaara who was now standing.

Sasuke was getting angry, all he could think was: Kiba is mine!!!!! Gaara must die!!!!

" I should have finished you off during the Chunnin exam." Sasuke said angrily.

" As if you could've" Gaara replied. " I could have killed you if it hadn't had been for the plans."

" Speaking of plans Gaara, don't you think Suna is getting kind of worried about their missing Kazekage?" Sasuke said smirking.

Gaara frowned. " Oh yeah… I forgot about them." He said.

Kiba looked towards Gaara. How long has Gaara been here? If he is Kazekage shouldn't he go back? Have I been keeping him here?

" What you gonna do now Gaara? You gonna stay and abandon your people? Or go back and abandon Kiba?" And leave him with me! Sasuke thought.

Gaara seemed to think long and hard about this then he said, " Neither! Kiba's coming with me to Suna."

Kiba smiled, " Really?"

" Yeah, if you want to." Gaara replied.
