Gaara had drifted off to sleep in the middle of Sasuke's bed for what seemed like a few minutes. He woke to someone adjusting his side and he opened his eyes slowly to see Itachi re-bandaging his side.

"Itachi?"

"Oh! Sorry Gaara. Did I wake you?"

"Uh. . .no,"

Gaara sat up to make it easier for Itachi to fix the bandages. Itachi taped it down and looked to Gaara, sitting down on the end of the bed. He knew what he had to do. He needed to teach Gaara to grow a backbone, to stand up to Sasuke.

"Gaara?"

Gaara turned to look at Itachi and cocked his head to the side.

"Hm?"

"When Sasuke started loosing is temper, what did you do?"

Gaara thought about this for a moment, remembering what had happened between then. Sasuke had been yelling. Gaara had cowered in fear, slightly argued and then Sasuke had hit him.

"I-I argued a bit then backed down and he started hitting me. . .kicking me,"

Itachi nodded at this, as if it were a casual thing.

"I see. Ok. . .well-"

"But I am sorry. I made him mad. It was my fault!"

Itachi rolled his eyes and ran a hand through his black hair and fixed his dark obsidian eyes on Gaara.

"He has anger-issues. He has never been able to accept it . . .but his temper can get out of control at times,"

Gaara looked down at his hands and clenched them shut.

"I will help you control him. I can control him. That's because I don't let him walk all over me like a rug. I put my foot down when it's needed. When he gets out of hand with his temper, I will step in,"

"How? How do I do that?"

"I'll help Gaara! When he starts to get mad. . don't give in! That'll only boost his ego. You need to make yourself look bigger,"

"But I'm smaller than him. I'm also weaker,"

"Listen to me Gaara! I'll help! If Sasuke hits you. . .hit back!"

"What?! Hit Sasuke?"

"Yes! Punch him right in the jaw,"

"I can't! That would-"

"Hurt him?"

Gaara nodded and shook his head at this. He couldn't hurt his Sasuke. No. He loved him.

He loved Sasuke.

"I refuse to,"

"Why? Because a small punch in the jaw will hurt him? It's called self-defense. And by the look of it. . you have none Gaara!"

"I do to!"

Gaara glared at Itachi, obviously angry at the insult.

"Oh really?"

"Yeah!"

Itachi grinned and stood up. He knew this was working. Show Gaara what to really do.

"You're just pathetic Gaara. I mean. . seriously! You can't stand up for yourself!"

Gaara was getting extremely mad and agitated.

"I can to!"

"Oh really now? Punch me!"

"Fine! I will!"

Gaara shot up, ignoring his side and punching Itachi hard in the stomach. With a small gasp, Itachi stumbled back, landing into the wall with a loud THUMP.

"Holy shit. ."

Gaara let out a small breath then sat on the bed, breathing heavily.

"You made me do it!"

Itachi smiled and stood up and sat down on the end of the bed again.

"That was the point. And shit Gaara. You are strong. Focus your strength when you want to show Sasuke who's boss,"

Gaara slowly nodded and looked at his hand, the one he had hit Itachi with.

"Sorry,"

"No. Rule number 1: Never say sorry for self-defense!"

Gaara nodded slowly and his eyes shot to the door where he heard something. . .or someone. He couldn't conclude that fact.

"Quickly Gaara. . .don't tell Sasuke! He'll get very angry. At us both,"

Itachi muttered it and stood, Gaara nodded and was soon pushed back down, watching the door as it opened. Sasuke entered and Itachi left, a small snicker on his face. Sasuke raised a brow at this and turned to Gaara, stripping of his clothing and changing into his night clothing, and slipping into bed. Before Gaara could even say a word to Sasuke. . .Sasuke had his arms around Gaara and was pulling him to his body.

"Sasuke. . ."

"Hm?"

"Please. . .not now,"

A frown appeared on Sasuke's face as he continued, kissing Gaara's neck and pulling himself on top of him. Gaara winced as pressure was applied to his side.

"Sasuke. Please. . .I want to sleep! "

"Yeah?"

Gaara slowly nodded, trying to move from Sasuke as he felt more kisses applied to his neck, getting harder and a bit fiercer each time. Gaara groaned and tried to slip away from Sasuke had him pinned to the bed, his eyes scanned nervously around the room, feeling Sasuke bite down on his neck. A small whimper of pain escaped his lips as he raised his arms up and pushed Sasuke off with force. A glare was forced onto Sasuke's face when he was shoved off and he lifted a hand to slap Gaara but felt guilt overwhelm him.

'I can't hurt him. But I have to. He rejected me! But he also is tired. . .no!'

With a grunt, he slapped Gaara hard across the face, feeling slight guilt rise. He soon pushed it back down and he leaned down, pinning Gaara's hands down and kissing his lips forcefully. Gaara mumbled something and tried to pull his hands from Sasuke's grip but soon melted into the kiss, his body relaxing. Sasuke let out a small chuckle and ran his hands down Gaara's sides, nibbling on his neck lightly.

"I knew you couldn't resist it,"

Gaara whimpered something and Sasuke looked at his face.

"What?"

"I said. . .I'm sorry,"

"Oh. . . .Good,"

Sasuke felt the guilt rise again and it was tough fighting with it. It felt so good to have power, but he also started to feel bad when Gaara whimpered or winced in pain. As much as he wanted to push the feeling of guilt down, he couldn't. A small sigh escaped his lips once more and he rolled off Gaara.

"Gaara?"

"Hm?"

"I'm sorry,"

Gaara bit his lip and rolled onto his side, wincing as he looked at Sasuke.

"What?"

"I-I'm . . .God don't make me say it again!"

Gaara nodded and smiled lightly.

"Thanks,"

"Whatever,"

Sasuke turned away from Gaara, sighing slightly. Gaara chuckled and turned over onto his right side, closing his eyes as he once again, drifted off to a deep sleep.
