Dedication: This one is for my muse, Amber-chan.

Disclaimer: Everyone who reads this much into one of my stories should know me by now, anyway if you didn't know, I AM NOT Masashi Kishimoto, creator of the wonderful world that is home to all things Naruto. If I was said creator, Neji would be half naked all the time and Itachi would be all naked half the time… or all… hmm… Anyway, enjoy!

"You just HAD to forget me Naruto"

"Naruto-kun, you were suppose to marry me."

"It's the power of youth."

"Right you are Lee."

"Neji, I didn't know you liked boys."

"Tenten…. It's not that…."

"What the hell Naruto, how did my brother fall for a guy like you?"

"Troublesome…"

"How is it Kakashi that I am here? All I do is keep the Kyūbiin check."

"…"

"Its not fair that Suigetsu be here too, right Sasuke-kun?"

"Can it Karin, no one asked you."

"Sasuke-kun, Suigetsu is being mean again."

"Shut up, both of you."

"This is all Sakura's fault."

Munch, "Yeah, what Ino said."

"Can it Ino-Pig…."

"No, Wide-brow."

A brief lull in the mass talking, Gaara closed his eyes. tick… tick… tick… He could feel the anger surge up from everyone in the room seeming to have some sort of claim to his lover. tick… tick… tick…

Slowly he opened his eyes just in time to see Sai approaching Naruto with a predatory grin on his face.

Ticktickticktick….Sakura was at fault for all of this, Gaara seethed.

"So does this mean that you finally will be my lover?" Sai was pushing Naruto against the wall and was mere inches from his face, their bodies pressed up against one another.

That was the last straw, Gaara felt the explosion, his mind focusing on the one person who he blamed for all of this mess. Sakura.

Said girls eyes widened in horror as the sand gathered around her, everyone watched in shock as Gaara lifted his arm, his hand outstretched. Sakura felt the sand start to squeeze her. She knew what was coming, her voice though was not functioning.

Gaara's soft voice seemed louder than anything though as he said, "Sand Cof-"

Naruto pushed Sai away and grabbed Gaara's arm, "No. Don't do it Gaara."

Gaara looked at Naruto and for a brief moment contemplated ignoring him, he wanted so badly to hurt Sakura for causing all this. Now he knew how everyone in Konoha felt about the blond ninja, although he had guessed about most of them before.

He hadn't known that he could possibly get jealous over a town before, yet they could have his lover at any time, and he couldn't. Childish, he knew, especially from the Kazekage, he just didn't care how childish he sounded. Naruto seemed to bring that out in him.

"Gaara," Naruto pulled him closer to his side.

Shizune shyly approached the two and silently took the fussy infant from Gaara's other arm.

"Gaara, you need to release the sand from Sakura." Naruto's voice had the calming affect that was needed to bring the young Kazekage to his senses.

Looking around, Gaara realized that everyone was eyeing him. Heaving a sigh, the red head released his sand around Sakura.

Naruto slid his hand down to Gaara's and held it. Grinning impishly, he looked at Tsunade as she paced behind her desk, "Just how did this rumor start?" She asked no one in particular, "And why the hell do I have to handle it?"

"Well you see Tsunade-sama," Sakura started to say, "I was told by Yamato-"

"It was you?" Tsunade rounded on the ex-Anbu.

Yamato's eyes widened, he backed up a step and put his hands out in front of him, "Tsunade-sama, All I wanted was to get all of team Kakashi gathered for a meeting. I was told by Kakashi-"

"I should have known it was you." Tsunade interrupted Yamato's explanation to glare at Kakashi.

Said Ninja raised his uncovered eye as if saying, ME? With his thumb he pointed to Jiraiya, "I was with-"

"YOU!" Tsunade nearly flew across the room to where the other Sannin leaned against the wall, "What have you done to Naruto?"

"Uh, I didn't know that Naruto was involved in anything till I came back here." Jiraiya stated, "The question my dear Tsunade, is what did you do to my innocent student? He was never involved with a sordid relationship with this many people when he was with me."

"Why YOU!" Tsunade yelled, she clenched her fist, the vein in her temple throbbed as she got ready to swing her fist at Jiraiya. The white haired Sannin knew what was coming and made a mad dash towards the window next to the Hokage's desk.

"This is how I got so quick," he commented as he leaped skillfully out the window as Tsunade's fist made contact with the desk. "I guess I have to go back to being dead, au revoir."

"JIRAIYA!" Tsunade's voice carried throughout Konoha, "Get your perverted ass back here and take it like a real man."

For a second the silence was deafening. As soon as the fifth Hokage turned around though, everyone could see her fury.

She looked at all of them in turn, getting ready to dismiss them from her office when she noticed the two key players had vanished. "Where the hell did those two go now?"

The only "two" that were missing besides Jiraiya was Naruto and Gaara. Everyone in the room had witnessed them leave when Sakura had started her explanation while Tsunade was too busy with her anger.

"Everyone needs to go find them." Tsunade began gnawing on her thumb, when no one moved she looked at them and said, "Go. Now, I want them in my office as soon as you find them."

Everyone filled out of the office, "Troublesome," Shikamaru commented as he went down the hall, "Sixteen shinobi just to find those two…" No one was around, so Shikamaru leaned against the wall wishing he could be outside. Well, he thought to himself, might as well open a door or two, so that no one complains that I did not try to look for them.

Opening the first door, Shikamaru nearly choked, on the other side of the door was Sasuke and Suigetsu. They were in each others arms, slowly they looked at Shikamaru, the emo Sasuke glared, as if daring the shinobi to do something. Suigetsu though blushed, making Shikamaru wonder in amazement at how much this water nin liked to kill when he was just plain adorable.

He did not need to see Sasuke getting it on with Suigetsu, hell no, without a word, he closed the door. "So troublesome…"

In another corridor, Gai, Lee, Tenten, and Neji were all discussing the events.

"So how come you never said that you like boys Neji?"

"Tenten, I. Do. Not. Like. Boys."

"What about Naruto?" Lee interjected.

"Naruto is Naruto," Neji sighed, "It's like different."

"Sooooo," Lee drawled, "Naruto is really a girl?"

"Lee!" Neji glared at his team mate. "Grow up."

"Don't worry Lee," Gai patted his favorite student on the shoulder, "It's the power of youth, Neji is only in love with Naruto, he does not like boys."

Neji was turning beet red, "I am not in love with him."

"Oh my gawd you are." Tenten giggled, "You look so guilty."

Neji turned even redder. "Shut up…"

Across the hall from the Hokage's office, Kakashi took the mission as a means to read some from his book, Make Out Tactics. No matter how many times he read the book, he always found something intriguing with it. This time as he was reading though he occasionally heard soft noises.

Hmm, he thought, it is starting to play havoc with his mind. Shrugging his shoulders he just passed the noises off as part of his imagination.

Hinata couldn't believe that "her" Naruto-kun would choose someone else over her, however she did admit that not once did she fully pursue him. So maybe Neji was right all along telling her that it was just puppy love. Wait! She halted in her musing, Neji was the one that was in love with her Naruto-kun also. "Damn…" she sobbed, "Why does my cousin get everything?"

"At least Naruto remembers you." Shino patted her shoulder, "He doesn't remember me."

"I wish I was a boy." Hinata hiccupped once her tears faded.

"I don't."

"You don't?"

"No." Shino pulled the girl into his arms and hugged her. "I like you just fine the way you are."

"Arigato, Shino-kun…"

Shino wondered if he shouldn't have said anything…

Over by the entrance to one of the rooms that the elders used when they had "things to discuss" with the Hokage, Ino sighed in exasperation.

"Sakura," her voice held the impatience that she was feeling. "How many times do I have to tell you that it all started because of you? I would have never told Choji or Shikamaru if it hadn't been for you telling me first how heartbroken you were over Naruto not being in love with you anymore."

"I never said that."

"Could have fooled me."

"Humph," Sakura folded her arms and looked away from her one time best friend.

Ino peeked over to her "rival" and asked, "So who is it that spread it out of hand where we are all in love with Naruto?"

The two continued talking about their own theories. Both of them forgetting what it was they were suppose to be doing in the first place. Following them was Sai and Choji. Sai just studying how the two enemies who were suppose to hate one another, seemed to be the best of friends. Choji just watching them, all the while eating his chips.

Temari was furious, she couldn't believe that the guy who her bother had fallen in love with could be so callous as to string along the entire town, she raced all over the damn building. Opening every door, seeing things that would shock someone with a weaker stomach, such as one of the elders picking his nose while the finger slowly slid to the mouth to eat the nugget.

Just like what the damn Kankuro would do. Sometimes she wondered how Gaara and herself had gotten a brother like him, when he was fighting, he could be brilliant, he had no world manners though.

She was getting more frustrated the longer it took to find Gaara. Up ahead she spotted Shikamaru leaning against the wall just staring at one door.

"No luck?" She asked her boyfriend.

In a daze, Shikamaru looked over at her. "None, I did find Sasuke though."

They were heading back to the Hokage's office.

"…" Temari sometimes wondered about him too.

"I also found Suigetsu."

"What's so important about that?"

"Nothing really, they just happened to be shut up in a closet all this time alone together."

"Oookayyy," Temari blinked a few times as if that would ward off the feelings that statement brought to her mind. "I don't want to know…"

"Good," Shikamaru said as he leaned against the door across from the Hokage's office, Kakashi's eye looked at them. "I wasn't going to tell you anyway."

"Now you have to tell me."

"I am not Sakura," He said as the others started to get back also. "I don't gossip."

"Wait," Sakura said, "I do not gossip."

Shikamaru ignored the petty argument that started due to his statement, he heard the noises coming from the other side of the door he was leaning on and stepped away, "Kakashi," his voice was inquisitive. "Just what is in this room?"

Kakashi raised his eyebrow and shrugged his shoulders. "I didn't check it."

Gai looked at them and motioned everyone away from the door, "Let me check."

Once the door was opened, gasps were heard throughout the hallway in front of the Hokage's office. Sitting in a easy chair dozing, was Naruto, curled up on his lap was Gaara.

XoXoXoXo

I know, I know Gaara and Naruto or the baby were not in this one all that much, I am deeply sorry about that. On to another subject, next chapter rating will most likely change, so be forewarned.

Also I think I have no life right now, it is summer though and once I get a idea in my head about a chapter, it only takes me a couple hours to work it out.

Arigato for the reviews, it is food for my soul. Ice Cream to everyone that reviewed.
