Peaceful Night
"Sarrina…" Gaara breathed and waited for her to be done before he pulled away and smiled lovingly at her, "Coon told me what to do," he admitted, "I hope you don't mind." he sat up and helped her do the same before he used his sand to grab his Kazekage robes and put on the main one before wrapping her in his. "Pretend to sleep. I'm sure it won't be too hard since you look about ready to fall over anyway." He grinned before sliding her bundle of clothes inside for her to hang onto while he jumped down to go in through the back door.
Sarrina blinked a couple of times before she released what Gaara was doing. She laid down and almost instantly felt herself drift. The wolf girl managed to keep herself awake enough to look asleep yet not be.
Gaara held Sarrina close, lovingly, before continuing through the house. It was then he stopped in horror when it struck him that he had no idea where Sarrina's room was. He couldn't ask her, either, that would break the cover he had created if they were caught, 'Oh crap…where do I go?' he bit his lip.
"Gaara-san?" Rosemary called as she entered the hallway where the young Kage stood. "What are you lo-" she paused when she noticed her sleeping daughter in his arms. Raised a brow at Gaara suspiciously, silently asking what he was doing with her.
Gaara blushed deeply, "We were out for a walk around town. She took me to her favorite spot last and fell asleep against me while we did a bit of dancing under the stars. I wanted to put her to bed but…then I realized I don't know where it is."
"Her room is the last one on the right." Rosemary chuckled, finding the boy's blush sweet. "You room will be two doors down from hers. If you need anything, I will be in the kitchen." The Uchiha woman chuckled as she walked back to the kitchen.
Gaara did not fool her. She saw the matching marks on both of their necks. She only hoped that her daughter had chosen her mate carefully. Deciding to keep this from her overprotective husband, Rose simply made a self-note to help her daughter hide the mark.
Gaara set Sarrina in her bed and covered her under the blankets, "Your mom knows, I think. I forgot to hide the marks…but she didn't seem angry," he murmured.
Sarrina opened her eyes tiredly with a smile. "She always finds out someway or another. I'm more worried about Dad finding out really. Ever since Kimi's...incident, he had become really protective." She slipped her hands out from under the blankets to take Gaara's hand. "I love you, Gaara-kun."
"Just call me Gaara when we're alone," he kissed her hand and then her forehead, "Do you wish for me to stay here with you? We can always say I just sort of…passed out, which I'm about to do anyway."
"Hai, I want you near me as much as possible while you are here. I mean after all...its only temporary." Sarrina sighed sliding her arms out from under the covers and held them open for her new mate.
Gaara crawled in next to her and smiled softly before pulling her close against his chest, "Let's make it the best we can, then, hmm?" he murmured, "I love you, my Sarrina."
"And I love you, my Gaara." the wolf girl sighed contently as she nuzzled closer. "I don't want this to end..."
"I'll try and come up with something," Gaara soothed as he ran his fingers through her hair, "Sleep, Sarrina, dream of happy things. I'll still be here when you wake."
Sarrina closed her eyes before sleep took her completely. Her body naturally snuggled closer to the warm Gaara and then she laid peacefully still.
