You walked out of office with your new coat on only to be greeted by Kenji, Ayame and Tai.
"Well, Well, Congratulations" Ayame smiled.
"Two days and your promoted, Very nice" Tai commented.
"Well done Nakio!!" Kenji smiled brightly.
"Thank you, Now lets go to that mean hmm?" You smiled.
"Yeah" They all chimed.
You all went home to change and they met at your house. You wore a nice burgundy t-shirt and light blue jeans with black sneakers and you brushed your long hair and put it in a nice high and tidy pony tail and then you were off for food with your new colleges.
Gaara's Point Of View.
"Come in" You said.
You watched as Mitsui-Sensei the head of Suna hospital walked in "Good evening Kazekage, Sorry to interrupt you but I just wanted to tell you how well Okita-San is doing. We have already promoted her to head of the children's department and is now one of the Head Emergency Doctors, Thanks to her calm nature when need be and she is fantastic with the children this young lady holds great promise she is just what the hospital needs I do hope she will stay and continue working here" he said bowing at the end.
"I hold no objections to her staying and I am pleased to here she is doing well" You said in your usual monotone voice.
"Good Kazekage, well Goodnight"
"Goodnight"
With that he left. You sighed and turned to face the window. *The only reason they all respect me and treat me so well is because I'm the Kazekgae..If I was just Gaara of the Desert they'd all fear me, even though I no longer posses Shukaku.. I want to be respected but I would like to be liked for myself not my positions in society* you sighed and walked closer to the window and stared at the now visible moon.
As you were looking at the moon you heard a soft laughter and look down to see a young lady looking up at you with sparkling sapphire eyes that glowed majestically in the moonlight *Enchanting*, once she noticed you looking at her you noticed her cheeks tint a faint pink and she smiled shyly before walking away with her friends. *Who was that?.. Could it be Miss. Okita*
You Sighed and went back to your paperwork unable to tear your mind from the young girls eyes.
Your Point Of View.
As you were walking home with Ayame Kenji and Tai you passed the Kazekage building and couldn't help but look up to see a young man who looked around your age looking at the moon, he had the wildest flaming red hair you had ever seen.
"Who's That?" You asked still fixated on the young boy.
"Oh that's Gaara the Kazekage" Ayame said.
"But he's so young" You commented in shock.
"Yep" Ayame said.
The others began to converse but you still looked at the Kazekage. He then looked from the moon to you and for a brief moment your eyes met his mesmerising turquoise ones.
You quickly felt your face heat up so you have a shy smile and turned back to your friends and began to walk home with them.
*So that's the Kazekage* You thought.
The next day you woke up with a new found drive and left yearly for work. Today you wore your red shirt again and knee length skirt and your long doctors coat.
At about 2 o clock you felt someone tap you on the shoulder as you read over your documents at hand.
"Hm" you turned around to see none other than Kankuro.
"Oh hello Kankuro" You said smiling.
"Hello Nakio I didn't know you wore glasses" He said smirking playfully.
You smiled and pulled them off and hooked them on your shirt pocket.
"Only for reading and such" You smiled back.
"I see, Well I'm here to ask if you could take the afternoon my brother would like to see you" he said.
"Your brother.. um okay then hang on a moment ill have to check with Mitsui-Sama" You said about to walk in the direction of his office.
"There's no need its been taken care of he is more than welcome for you to take the afternoon off" he said ushering you out of the building.
After about 6 minutes of walking you noticed you were walking in the direction of the Kazekage's building. *Does his brother work here too?*"So what's your brother like?" You asked curious.
"Uh well.. he's not much of a people person shall we say.. very straight forward" He said rubbing the back of his neck.
"Ah so is he the youngest? Temari doesn't exactly look younger than you" You asked now walking up the stairs inside the building and now you were in front of two big wooden doors.
"She's not that's why, she's the oldest and Gaara is the youngest now go in hes expecting you." He said smiling.
"Wait, the Kazekage!! You didn't tell me he was your brother" you said in horror.
He chuckled "Come on don't worry" He said knocking the door.
You heard an unnervingly cold voice on the other side which made your hair on the back of your neck stand up.
"Come In"
You shook your head and put a smile on your face and slowly walked in after Kankuro.
"This is Miss. Nakio Okita" He said pushing you forward with a smile. The Kazekage looked up from his stack of papers and gazed into your eyes.
You smiled and bowed a little to show your respect.
"Thank you Kankuro now go and find a Temari I have a mission for the both of you" He said looking at his older sibling.
*He's the Kazekage but he's the youngest?* you wondered.
"Okay, Bye Nakio" he said smiling at you.
"Bye" you said quietly smiling at him before looking at the ground a little nervous.
*Why am I so nervous?*
Gaara's Point of View.
You heard an expected knock on the door and told them to come in.
"This is Miss. Nakio Okita" Kanuro said, you looked up from your paper work to see him push the young girl forward a little, she looked at you and smiled before bowing a little.
As you seen the young woman your breath caught in your throat a little and you gazed into her eyes.
*So she is the girl from last night* That was one of the reasons you made time to see her again, you wanted to know if it was the girl from last night.. you needed to know and you hoped it was because for some reason you wanted and needed to see her again.. just once.
She bowed a little to show you respect.
*Polite anyway*
"Thank you Kankuro now go and find Temari I have a mission for the both of you"
"Okay Bye Nakio" He said smiling at her.
"Bye" She said softly making you shudder a little and the hair on the back of you're neck and arms stand on end but you quickly shook the peculiar feeling off as her gaze averted to the ground.
"So Miss. Okita how are you enjoying your time in Suna" You asked in a monotone voice.
She looked up at you with a bright smile on her face.
"I'm loving every moment of it, the people here are so nice"
You were taken back to say the least, this girl just screamed happiness and you were even tempted to smile yourself at the sight of the happy teenage girl.
*Could this girl.. actually.. ever make me feel happiness like Kankuro said?*
"Good. I hear you have done exceptionally well at the Hospital and have impressed a lot of people" You said.
She blushed a little and smiled.
"Well I hope I have"
You felt the heat rise in your own cheeks ever so slightly and couldn't help but notice how simply adorable she truly was.
"Would you consider staying here a long period of time?" You asked secretly hoping she would say yes, you just wanted to be around this girl a little longer.
"Well If it would be okay with you Kazekage" She smiled.
"Of course we need more Doctors. That is all you leave now"
"Thank you" She bowed and was about to open the door to leave when she turned around and smiled at you.
"Kazekage?"
"Hm?" You replied.
"Kankuro may have thank you already for me but I just really would like to thank you for my new house and the fact that its close to my job, its lovely" She chirped.
You started blankly at the girl but inside you were panicking slightly at what to say.
"No problem, its my job."
Her smiled turned to a smaller softer one and then she left leaving you alone.
You let out a sigh of relief, for once in your life you actually left....Nervous.
You slowly made your way to your window and watched as Nakio skipped happily down the steps of the Kazekage building, once you were sure no one was around you felt a small smile tug on your lips.
You seen her walk up Kankuro and practically jump on him laughing. He swung her around and set her down and she showed off her new doctors coat and she then hugged Temari.
For some reason when she hugged Kankuro you felt a violent and painful feeling surge through you, one you haven't felt since you were a little boy when you used to watched the other children walk hand in hand with their parents. *Is this the sting jealousy?* You watched as she continued her walk to her home or back to the hospital and for some reason you knew she would head straight back to the hospital.
*I wonder what it feels like to have her hold you.. to hold her in my arms.. wait what am I thinking.. this girl.. she's so happy..*
A slow, but sure smile painted its face across your usually stoic face, "And of That.....I am glad"
