Breathe In the Rain
The Haunted House PartTwo
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, but I do own Kumo Dokusatsu, Keo Soma and Rio Soma, I also own Sukai Nai
Kumo stood in the middle of Kankuro and Gaara, having a stare down.
"Jimminy Crickets, Guys, it's Halloween, can't we get along?" Kumo whined.
"Little punk!"
"Idiot!" Gaara hissed.
"GAARA!" Kumo gasped, shaking her head.
"Ha! Whipped-"
Kankuro got a smack across the face.
"All of you, go upstairs and get dressed!" Temari called from the stair case.
"Who died and made you queen?" Kankuro hissed.
"I. Said. Move. Your Behinds!" Temari snarled, glaring at them.
Kankuro bowed and raced to his room.
Kumo smiled, taking Gaara's hand and pulling him upstairs only to have him detached from her by Temari.
"Come on Kumo, we've got a lot of work to do." Temari stated, dragging her into the room.
"Bye Gaara!" Kumo cried, waving with a grin as she and Temari scuttled into Temari's room.
Gaara watched her with confusion before sighing and hanging his head.
She was disappointed in him for once.
"Someone feels stupid"
Gaara whipped around and glared at Sukai Nai who smirked at him.
She wore a long black, slinky dress that was covered in sequence and had slits on both sides of the dress, black flats, and her black hair up in pins.
"Back off!" Gaara snarled, narrowing his eyes.
"Why, aren't you selfish!" Sukai spat.
"Leave, Kumo is mine!" Gaara hissed, crossing his arms with sand coming out to surround them both.
"Drop the tough guy act." Sukai Hissed.
"Try me!" Gaara hissed only to have Temari storm out of the door, the sound of a shower going on in the background.
"GAARA! Get dressed!" Temari spat, not even seeing Sukai for a second before glaring at her.
"You're not welcome here, leave!" Temari spat then slammed the door shut.
Gaara glared and watched Sukai disappear in a mist of black.
Storming into his room, he jumped in the shower with a glare glued to his face.
Kumo stood up in the shower, completely soaked and suddenly her body went still when she remembered when Gaara's liking for her was a secret and he was the dark mysterous man.
Kumo smiled and closed her eyes, imagining to feeling of his body against hers and suddenly it felt all too real.
"I figured you'd remember this, out of everything" Gaara mocked, holding her close.
Kumo held still and let him lay his head on her shoulder.
"Gaara, what do you mean?" Kumo whispered.
"Mean what?" He whispered, letting his lips run across her neck.
Kumo's body shook all over, her lips trembling.
This shaking.
Why way she shaking?
Kumo closed her eyes.
"You... You said... I'd remember this out of everything" Kumo whispered, looking over her shoulder as Gaara stood straight up.
"Leave what lay, lie, You'll remember when you need to" Gaara whispered, running a hand through her hair.
Kumo bit her lip before whipping around to face him.
But he was gone.
"Butter Biscuits!" Kumo spat, putting her hands on her hips.
"Jerk" She whispered and finished up with her hair.
Soon Kumo was out of the shower and pulled on the bra and underwear that she was once wearing.
"Now, we put the dress on" Temari whispered, holding Kumo's hair up on the top of her head with three clips and a cloth to cover it.
Kumo looked to Temari who pulled it over her head.
It fell on her like a silk napkin slowly floating down in the air.
It was so light.
Kumo looked down and found she actually had clevage for one, and her back didn't look half bad.
The slit was on the right side, showing off her legs.
"Shoes are last... now help me into mine"
Temari had a purple dress that was short and flowy. It was silk with flower designs on the back and the front on the top. It was strapless with black lace at the bottom and top.
It flattered Temari.
"Now your hair... Up or down?" Temari asked, looking at Kumo in the mirror.
"Down?" Kumo whispered.
Temari bit her lip and hung her head to the left then the right and nodded with a soft smile.
"Down" Temari agreed.
Kumo saw the small smile and realized where Gaara got his smile.
Temari gave Gaara many traits physically.
Kankuro emotionally. (Like Stubbornness and Selfishness perhaps)
Kumo smiled as Temari took a brush and gently brushed her hair.
"I've had practice, I had to brush Kankuro's and Gaara's hair when they were little and still give them hair cuts, but now if they brush it, it's their own choice" Temari mocked, her soft smile on Kumo in the mirror.
After Kumo's hair was knot free and straight, Temari began to part it to the left, before taking a large curling iron.
"Long spiral curls look good on you" Temari whispered, curling her hair gently.
The curls were soft and long, they were loose and hung off of Kumo's shoulder.
Temari just brushed her hair down and left it parted slightly to the right and began digging out shoes.
Kumo went wide eyed at Temari's closet,
IT WAS HUGE!
Kumo blinked only to catch a pair of small black heels barely off the ground. They were strap ups and atleast 2 inches.
"Now go, the party has already started" Temari stated, shooing her.
Kumo grinned as she went slowly down the stairs only to let it drop as she tripped and fell.
Sukai was there.
Grabbing Kumo, she lifted her up and back onto the floor with a smile.
"You look darling" Sukai laughed with a girlish smile.
"Come on, dance with me" Sukai asked, pulling Kumo along for a slow song.
Kumo was apparently playing the girl part in the dance until Sukai pulled her close and then it was more like Kumo was clinging to Sukai.
Kumo smiled only to almost fall, and laugh a silent laugh as Sukai held her hand.
Suddely Kumo's heart shuttered and an image came through.
A dark creature, grabbing her wrist.
Screams,
Severe pain.
Kumo gasped, ripping from the creature with pain filled eyes before racing toward the stairs only to bump into Gaara who looked her over with concern.
"What's wrong?" He asked, reading her face, holding her by her bare arms only for another picture to come back.
"he killed your parents!" Suddenly there was a image of Gaara covered in blood with a pleading expression. Blood of Sasuke and Sakura.
Her once comrades.
Kumo cried out.
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Screaming she ran up the stairs and stumbled into her room, tears running down her face.
"Leave me alone" Kumo whispered, shaking her head with a wince only to feel sand wrapping around her ankles, then her wrists and walking her to her bed.
Gaara walked in with concerned eyes.
"What's wrong?" He asked, shutting the door behind him.
Gaara looked to Kumo with wide eyes as he saw her in the dress.
"Do you like it? Temari got it for you... she said.. that... I don't remember, and honestly it doesn't matter" Kumo whimpered, sitting on her bed and trying to blink away the tears.
"Did you finally remember what happened?" Gaara asked, tilting his head.
"Just flashes" Kumo whispered.
"I'm sorry" Gaara blurted out, looking at her with sad eyes.
Kumo looked up at him only to have him put a hand on her chin, lifting it and looking in her eyes.
"Come on, dance with me" he whispered, a soft look in his eyes, pulling her to her feet, letting the door open and music flow through.
Another slow song.
Kumo clung to Gaara, digging her fingers into his back before gripping his suit with a death grip.
Feeling that if she let go, he'd disappear.
That this was just a dream,
a weird dream.
"I wonder why I haven't woken up screaming" Kumo whispered.
"It's all real..." Gaara whispered.
"Good," Kumo whispered back, letting her face rest on his chest before looking up and seeing Gaara looking down with that soft smile that were all hers.
She'd never seen him give them to anyone else.
Kumo grinned, closed her eyes and laid her head back down on his chest.
Kissing him would ruin the moment.
Besides, she planned to do that at night, when she woke up.
In a minute, they finally walked down the stairs, holding hands.
Temari seemed to have on a soft smile, patted Kumo's shoulders as she walked toward Kankuro who was flirting as always.
Sukai grabbed Kumo by the arm and dragged her to the floor, smirking at Gaara who glared.
Sukai smiled at Kumo and spun her around.
Kumo began to laugh, dancing and completely forgiving Sukai only to turn and be chest to chest with Sukai who smiled at Kumo with her crooked smile.
"Kumo... Want to go shopping with me, then go to dinner?" Sukai asked, as she slid to the right and to the left.
Doing the cupid shuffle.
Kumo smiled and shrugged,
"Sure," Kumo laughed, spinning around and going to the right.
Sukai grinned, bumping Kumo in the hip before pulling her this way and that.
"So do you like Gaara?" Sukai asked, arching her brows at Kumo.
"Of course," Kumo giggled, ducking under Sukai's arms and spinning into a new song.
"Do you like me?" Sukai asked, smuggly smiling at Kumo who just laughed harder.
"Of course, you're a good friend" Kumo stated.
Kumo completely forgot that she had just met the human Sukai a day ago, barely talked to her.
But it felt as if they had been friends forever.
"Who do you like more?" Sukai asked, holding Kumo by the shoulders.
"Hmm, I don't know"
"That's interesting" Sukai laughed before telling Kumo she had to go to the bathroom.
"Don't fall in!" Kumo giggled, and continued to dance with Kankuro and Temari.
Sukai watched Kumo for a second before turning and running smack into the person she wanted to see.
"Gaara!" Sukai laughed, crossing her arms and loosing her happy tone. "Just the man I needed to see.
"Really? What do you want now demon, ready to kill what happiness Kumo has left?" Gaara snapped.
"No... here to place a bet." Sukai mocked, cocking her brow and walking off towards the stair case.
"What kind of bet?" Gaara scowled, narrowing his eyes on her.
"I bet you, something you would die for,"
"What's the bet first" Gaara growled.
"First to have Kumo kiss them, on the lips for longer than 3 seconds, in public to prove it, wins." Sukai stated with a wicked gleam in her eyes.
"Okay, and what are the terms?" Gaara asked, "What would I die for?"
"If You win, I will leave Kumo be and find another host to live in or... feed from. But if I win, you let me have Kumo and take her to be a sccubii" Sukai stated with a glare.
"Fine, if it'll get you off my back!"
