Chapter 15: Things Unraveling


It's been a few weeks since Gaara and I had been going out as a couple. Gaara still felt uncomfortable telling other people about us but I didn't really mind. Well, not at first but it's getting to me. I know people at school had been bothering him and I really can't deny that. People at school can sometimes be jerks and uncaring. But for his sake I am keeping my mouth shut until he is comfortable and finally tell me who those exact people are. Yeah, my little love hasn't told me who the certain people who had been giving him trouble. He knows if I found out that I'll get pissed and throw a fit.

Sasuke and Naruto's budding relationship has been a bit rocky. They would always get in their usual nonsense arguments. Some of them being so big that at times they would always almost break up. I think those two are doing it on purpose because I heard from Sasuke that making up was always the best part. I always make fun of him after. Of course no one knows about their relationship as well. I believe the only one who knows about them is Gaara and I.

Sasuke never mentioned what happened after school that one day. The day I got all pissed and decided to spy on them. I believe he's not ready to tell me details yet. I'm being a friend and letting him take his time. I just hope he doesn't take forever because I'm itching to know what the hell it is.

School is a pain and was a pain since it started. The position as president is taking is toll on me. I've been to meetings almost every day after school. The big dance was coming and I'm held responsible for it. Of course the student council is helping me a lot but they have their own little jobs to do as well.

I sighed and rolled over to my side. It was Saturday morning and I decided today was going to be my lazy day. I got my cell which was right next to me and called my own house.

Ring…Ring…

"Hello, Hyuuga residence." Answered a voice of a little girl.

"Hinabi, would you be so kind and have Sonia bring me up my lunch. I'm too tired to get up."

"Oh my goodness Neji, you are so lazy! I'm telling dad!" said the little girl.

I rolled my eyes, "Please Hinabi, I'm serious. Get Sonia to get me my lunch. Or I won't take you shopping next week like you asked."

"Hey no fair!" she yelled, "Fine, but I still think you are lazy!"

After hanging up I laid there for a couple more minutes. Hinabi was right to say I was lazy. Hey, I deserved it after being busy this whole damn week. I wonder if Gaara has work today. I looked at my calendar near my bed and saw the little red marks I put on there to tell me if Gaara was working.

Yes, he was scheduled to work today with Naruto. It was exactly one so they should be off in about two hours. I picked up my cell again and began texting my love.

Message:

Hey, want to come over to my house after work? Tell Naruto to come to. I'll invite Sasuke.

Miss you.

After the text had been sent I decided to call my best friend. He should be home today being lazy like I am.

Ring…

"Hello?" said a groggy voice on the other side.

"Wake up lazy ass."

"Neji, what the fuck I was sleeping!"

"It's one Sasuke. Damn how long do you plan on sleeping in?"

"Until tomorrow."

I laughed, "Hey come over to my house in like two hours. I'm bored and I invited Naruto and Gaara to come too. We could watch a DVD or something."

I knew mentioning my best friend's boyfriend's name would persuade him to come. "Yeah I guess so." He said lazily. "What movie is out on DVD? We could all meet up at your house and drive to the video store or something."

"Yeah we could do that too." There was knocking on my door. "Hey man, my lunch is here. I'll talk to you when I see you."

"Yeah, later." And there was a click on the other line.

"Sonia, you could come in now."

My door opened and my maid stepped in holding a tray of food. She smiled at me, "I prepared you a tuna sandwich with cheese and some potato chips with the ruffles that you like and a tall glass of milk." She walked towards me and placed the tray on my lap.

"Thanks Sonia, it looks delicious." I told her. She blushed and bowed her head. She stood there for a while longer watching me eat. Or should I say admiring me eat. I coughed letting her know it was time to be dismissed.

Surprised even at her own actions, "I'm sorry young sir, I didn't know what I was thinking." She almost looked like she was going to cry.

I patted her arm gently, "It's okay Sonia, no worries." And with that she left my room smiling from ear to ear and caressing the arm where I had touched her. I rolled my eyes and continued to eat. Suddenly my phone started to vibrate. I picked it up and read the new text message I had received.

Message:

I'll be there with Naruto after work. I'm at break right now. I really needed it since I had to clean the women's bathroom. It's disgusting in there.

Miss you too.

After getting out of the shower and picking what I should wear, I heard the familiar sound of Sasuke's sports car. I didn't have time to fix my hair so I just tied it into a loose ponytail. I wore dark gray jeans and a black hooded sweater, I hope Gaara likes it.

I ran downstairs to meet Sasuke and Sonia talking downstairs. Sonia was offering Sasuke a drink but he refused. Sonia blushed at the sight of me and bowed.

"Thanks Sonia. C'mon lets go to my room." I told Sasuke. He smiled at Sonia and followed me up the stairs.

"Hey I think your maid has the hots for you man." He said behind me.

"I know, isn't it obvious?" I rolled my eyes. Its not like I should care or anything, but she is my employee and it's kind of an awkward situation. Sometimes it even makes me uncomfortable.

"When are they coming?" he asked upon arriving in my room.

I flopped on the bed and looked at my watch, "Gaara text me just a few minutes ago saying that they we're on their way. Naruto is driving so of course they will get here fast. Don't worry; you will get to see him sooner or later."

Sasuke glared at me and crossed his arms, "I haven't seen him that much this week. I've been so busy with practice. I feel bad."

I patted my friend on the back, "It's Naruto, he will understand. Stop being a bitch and suck it up." I joked, "Oh and congratulations on making it to the semi finals." Mentioning the semi finals seemed to have perked up Sasuke's mood. His hard work and training his team was the reason they made is this far.

Knocking could me heard on my door.

"Come in." I yelled.

It was Sonia again. "Young sir, you're two guests are here. Naruto and," she paused, "Gaara." I looked at her suspiciously when she had paused to say my boyfriend's name. She smiled and went away. A second later Gaara and Naruto came in. Gaara was glaring daggers at Sonia when she passed by and I noticed she was doing the same. I would have to talk to her after they all leave.

"Hey," Sasuke smiled and walked up to Naruto giving him a big hug. "Nice seeing you again."

"Hey sexy," Naruto kissed Sasuke's cheek causing the other to blush, "I know, nice seeing you too. I know we've both been busy but just remember that I understand." Sasuke sighed in relief at his boyfriend's choice of words.

Gaara walked towards me and I gestured him to sit on my lap. He obeyed and I wrapped my arms around his think waist. He turned his head and planted a chaste kiss on my lips. "How was work?" I asked.

Gaara smiled and looked at Naruto, who was still hugging his boyfriend, and began to chuckle. "It was tiring as always but funny."

"Funny?" both Sasuke and I said at the same time.

"Aw! Gaara! You said you wouldn't tell!" pouted the blonde. This gave Sasuke the opportunity to kiss Naruto's pouted lips. This shut him up.

"What happened?"

"Remember how I text you earlier saying how I had to clean the women's bathroom? Well Naruto was there helping me. We had to clean up the wax trash bag thing where the women put their… womanly trash in." Naruto made a disgusted face, Gaara continued, "Anyways, once we were done, we walked out to throw the bags away when people around us started laughing. Naruto and I were both confused but mostly Naruto because it seemed like he was the butt of the joke."

"Well Naruto turned around to asked a lady what was wrong and then I saw it." Gaara had to pause from laughing, "There was a used pad stuck behind his shirt."

Everyone started cracking up. Everyone besides Naruto of course who was red in the face. "That's not funny! How would you like it if some nasty piece of shit was stuck on your back huh? Coming from a woman's crotch no less." He huffed.

Everyone's laughter increased. The blonde looked like he was about to cry until Sasuke hugged him tighter and planted a kiss on his forehead. "Aw, it's okay Naruto. You are still sexy." He cooed in his lover's ear. This technique softened the blonde up and nuzzled Sasuke's neck.

"So, Sasuke and I planned on watching DVD's tonight. Do you guys want to? I mean we could do something else if you want." I announced. Both Naruto and Gaara agreed that it would be fine.

"I'll drive to the video store if you want." Sasuke offered. I nodded my head.

"Yes! We're going to ride in Sasuke's expensive car! Shotgun!" the blonde yelled while running down the stairs. Sasuke smirked and rolled his eyes, "Idiot."

"Damn, I didn't know there were so many movies out already." Said the blonde while looking at the new releases on the shelf. "This is going to take some time, c'mon Sasuke, help me pick a good one."

The blonde dragged Sasuke into the new action film releases leaving Gaara and I there to chose a movie as well.

"What do you wan to watch." I asked my boyfriend while gently rubbing on his back. Gaara was deciding whether to pick the movie about aliens invading earth or the one where the main character was warped into the word he had written. Something like that. I didn't really care what we watched as long as Gaara was there to watch it with.

I turned around to look at more movies on the shelf and left Gaara there to decide when I noticed some familiar kids at school eyeing Naruto and Sasuke suspiciously. I walked closer trying to find out their identities.

"Oh, hi Mr. President." One of them smiled upon my approach. I recognized the faces. It was Kenta and Lenlen and not far behind was Lee's girlfriend.

"Hey guys what's up?" I asked. I caught Lenlen winking at me. I looked away hoping she would stop.

"Nothing much" the girl cooed, "Just wondering why that loser is hanging out with our football captain that's all." She said innocently. I turned to where she pointed and saw Naruto cheering at something while Sasuke was shaking his head.

"They're friends. There's nothing wrong with being friends with people." I told them.

Kenta snorted, "Good, I'm glad they are just friends." He exaggerated the word friend. "And would I ask who you are with? If you don't mind me asking."

"I'm with my friend Gaara." I said pointing at the back. It hurt to say friend but I know this is what Gaara had wanted.

"Gaara huh? That freak in class?" Lenlen cackled. "Neji, you are the president of the school, I don't think it will look good if you hang out with the likes of him." I stared at her with a what the fuck look.

"I think I'm old enough to decide who I should hang around with." I almost growled.

Kenta chuckled, "We are just watching out for you Neji. People look up to you. You wouldn't want people to know any bad secrets now would we Mr. President?" he winked. I glared at him as they walked away.

I walked back to Gaara with steam blowing out of my ears. How dare they talk to me like that? I'll make sure to deal with those two later on in school.

"What's wrong?" asked Gaara.

I shook my head, "Nothing, just some people at school giving me advice that I obviously don't need."

"Who were they?"

"They are nobody special. Just some people in our class with Iruka."

Gaara gulped, "What where their names?"

I glared at Gaara, "Why does it matter? They are nobody and I'll make sure to have people deal with them later. They had no rights to talk to me that way. Anyways I don't really remember their names. Kenta I think and one of them was Tenten's cousin."

Gaara froze and looked like he was about to bolt out of there. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"N-nothing." He said and continued to look through the movies. I sighed and attempted to hold his hand but he yanked it out of the way. I looked at him confused and a pang of hurt hit me in my chest. Why doesn't he want to hold my hand anymore?

I shook it off and just stayed near the redhead; trying to avoid touching him since he would flinch away whenever I tried anyways. Something weird is going on and I'm beginning to find out what.


(AN) Ha! Neji is such a detective isn't he? Hehe, the chapter was kind of bleh and short but hope you enjoyed it. Read and Review.
