When she woke up with the bed to herself she felt disappointed. Shaking her head at herself, thinking how silly she had been to expect Gaara to want to sleep with her, she went out to the bathroom. As she passed through the hall she spied Gaara in the living room, still bent over his papers.

"Did you work all night?" She stopped to ask.

He looked up and nodded.

She shook her head at him. "I know it's sort of the norm for you, but you really shouldn't pull all nighters. It's not good for you."

"I'll take a nap this afternoon." Gaara said with a shrug and went back to his work.

Sakura sighed and closed the door behind her.
