Hinata read the letter again...and again...and again and again until she had practically memorized it. It made her feel more estatic every time she read it.

Dear Hinata,

I am very sorry for how I mistreated you when we started our journey and afterward. I clearly made a horrible mistake and I would wish to apologize to you in person. I would like to have a dinner tonight. Just you and me. Together. No worries about anything. I will have an escort bring you to the place where we will be dining. To be honest, I cannot wait to see you again, Hinata. It has been too long since I last saw you. I cannot wait. Thank you , Lady Hinata.

With care,Gaara

"He can't wait..." hinata whispered. Hinata was jumping up and down. A dinner! Just them! I feel like I'm dreaming!! Oh, I have to tell him. I love him. I love Gaara with my whole heart. Now, what should I wear?

Hinata noticed the outfit she would wear. Well you never know it could come in handy! No! No, that's not who I am...then again...

Gaara placed the loose tie on his neck. "There!" Temari grinned. "Now you look like a decent guy that will have Hinata falling for you!" Temari grinned already knowing that Hinata was crazy about Gaara. A girl knows. Especially when she saw Hinata jumping up and down earlier. This is the most adorable relationship ever!!! Now it's time to see if my lil bro has learned anything about romance... "Okay Gaara! Let's see how romantic you are!"

"What the?" Gaara scoffed. "Why do I hafta do this? Is this all necessary?" Gaara didn't like doing more than he should. Then again, this was Hinata. Well anything for my girl. "But what is it?"

"Okay I'll say something and then we'll see if you're any romantic!" Temari smiled. "It's full-proof!"

Gaara nodded. I don't like the sound of this...

"Ahem... 'Hello there, Gaara' "Temari mimicked Hinata. " ' How are you?' "

Gaara took in a deep breath and tried remembered one of the romance shows Kankuro forced him to watch. "You never know when this junk will come in handy" is what Kankuro told him. So Gaara took a stab at it. "Now that you're here, everything's perfect."

Temari's eyes were surprised. "Wow, didn't think my bro had it in him!!" She elbowed him in the gut. As he held in his pain, Gaara and Temari went over different romance steps. After about half an hour, Temari smiled. "I'm so proud of you. You've turned into such a great guy in just five years. Give me a hug brother!!"

"Temari...you're scaring me now, "Gaara said as he walked out. "Just stay out of the dinner and make sure the waiter knows what he's doing." Gaara walked out of the room.

"OH! He'll know what he doing..."Temari smiled, evilly. He truly knows...

Hinata looked at herself. Truly, she didn't know what to think. The skirt she was wearing would be considered short by some people. But, it only went three inches above her knees. It was a flowing skirt and it matched the sort of revealing top she was wearing. Well, Hinata being who she was wore a jacket over herself that way she wouldn't like she was expecting anything...Even if I might...

Her hair was a little curly. Not that much. just lightly at the tips of her hair. She had light makeup on and she was wearing a thin necklace. She was wearing a ring and bracelet that matched eveyrything ever so nicely. Wow, I might actually like this look...I don't know...

There was a knock at the door. Hinata turned her head and felt her stomach start turning inside out. Her heart was beating faster than ever before. Her throat was drying up and felt like she couldn't swallow. Here I go.. She opened the door and there stood a man with blonde hair and teal eyes. "I am your escort to the dinner with the Kazekage.." he announced. "Follow me."

The man started walking through the palace, while Hinata struggle to keep up pace with him. They were going through hundreds of tiny rooms and hallways, ones Hinata had never seen before. They climbed hundreds of stairs to come to more stairs. There was no windows to look out on. And the staircase was tiny enough for one person. It felt like they would never reach their destination. Well Gaara sure knows how to get a girl tired.

As Hinata was struggling to reach the few last steps, the man opened a door. Now, it didn't lead to another staircase or another hallway or another building. It opened to the outside. The wind came blowing in. The smell of the outside rushed to Hinata. Almost three days... It had been almost three days since she last went outside. It was a little dark and for the first time ever, hinata saw stars in Suna. There were millions of tiny white dots in the sky. Oh, and the moon!! Oh, it was beyond beautiful!! I can almost see my reflection through it. But as Hinata let her eyes wonder, the most beautiful thing to her wasn't the lovely stars, the amazing scent of the outside, or the gorgeous moon. Hinata saw that on the roof was a tiny little candle on a table with two seats. and the person that got out of one was him. When the person you love sets up a candlelight roof dinner, well how can you not smile?

"Gaara?" Hinata smiled. "You did this?"

"Anything for you, Hinata," Gaara spoke softly.

UPDATE: Thank you for every review!!! And O my I can't wait to see what happens with Hinata and Gaara now!! Their fight seems almost over!! I'm so excited!! Thanks again for the reviews!
