AN: Thanks to all of you who reviewed! I'm glad you like this so far. Here's chapter 2 :)
My beloved Gaara,
I am glad all is well in Suna. I am excited to finally see it with my own eyes. Tsunade-sama and my father have granted me permission to travel to Suna. Although, I was surprised to find out that you'd already been in contact with both of them, also seeking permission for my visit. That made asking them much easier for me. I can't wait to finally be with you again.
Until then my beloved,
Your Hinata.
Gaara read the letter over and over again, still not believing his eyes. What had always been denied him was finally happening; he had a real chance at love. He still wasn't that great at expressing himself verbally, but, when Hinata got there, he would make sure there was no doubt in her mind about his feelings for her. She was truly his most precious person.
The Kazekage looked out his window, out to his beloved village. Everything in his life, for once, seemed to be falling into place. He was the Kazekage. He was respected and needed by his people. He had the love of his brother and sister, who he loved in return. And he had Hinata. Sweet, beautiful, wonderful Hinata.
He hadn't seen her since his parting from Konoha three months ago. During his time there, she'd gained a little more confidence and lost some of her adorable stutter. He actually found it quite adorable how shy she could be sometimes.
There was a knock on the door, disturbing Gaara's thoughts about his beloved.
"Yes?" he answered.
Temari entered his office.
"So, did you hear back from Hinata?"
Gaara nodded. "Both the Hokage and her father have granted her permission to leave the village to come here. I will write back to her shortly so we can arrange the details."
Temari smiled at her little brother. "Does she know you've been plotting with them behind her back to get her over here?"
"Apparently so."
Temari squeezed Gaara's shoulder. "I'm proud of you, Little Brother. You've got so much going for you. You've finally got peace and happiness in your life. By the way, you still haven't told me the surprise you have for her?"
Gaara gave a small smirk. "I know. That was on purpose. You shall find out when Hinata finds out."
Temari gave him a small, playful glare, followed by a smile. "Fine! Keep your secrets! I'll find out eventually."
Temari left Gaara with a chuckle.
He sat down at his desk and took out a black box. There were many papers and another small box inside. He added Hinata's letter to the collection before returning it to its hiding place.
'Soon,' he thought.
Then he took out a new piece of parchment and began drafting a letter to Hinata.
