Chapter 22: To Deal

Temari let the water hit her face, and relax her. A shower was exactly what she needed. She didn't like being cooped up in the house but it was necessary. Sasuke had promised he'd protect her and she believed him. She nedded him to make her feel safe and that's exactly what he did He made her feel safe. She knew that Mika was still fast asleep and probably remain so for about another hour or so; Though She had the door open just incase.

She had never cried that hard to anyone but she had felt she could when she talked to Hinata. She kind of wondered if there was anyway she could repay her for her kindness. She hoped there was. The shower water was nice and warm. She couldn't possibly be anymore relax. Kyo couldn't get her here She hoped. Though something dawned on her. What about Gaara? Her baby. The one that now hated everything about her. She knew when she left, She should have taken him, If she wasn't pregnant she would've in a heartbeat. She knew he must have felt abandoned.

flashback

"It's a boy!" The doctor said to her as he hadn't her that baby. He was crying hard. She rocked him back and forth. She knew the circumstances in which he was brought in the world, but she couldn't help but love him.

"Shhh, Mommy's here." She smiled he calmed himself.

"Do you have a name for the baby?" The doctor asked Temari.

"Gaara." She said. That had been the name she wanted for a boy and the only thing she had complete control over since, Kyo wasn't aloud in the room since she didn't want him there. She rocked gaara back and forth and she slowly feel asleep. She held him for about 30 minutes which was time enough for her to be transferred to another room and for vistor to come.

"Temari!" Kankuro ran in and jumped up on the bed. Kyo came in after him, pretending to be a proud grandfather or whatever the sick bastard wanted to call himself. "Is this my baby brother?" He asked looking at the small bundle.

"Yes." She said remembering the story that Kyo wanted her to tell Gaara as he grew up.

"He's so small! He can't play with me." Kankuro said.

"But I can play with you until he's big enough." Kankuro smiled.

"Yay!" Kyo picked Kankuro up off of the bed and put him on the floor.

"May I hold him?" Kyo asked her. She hestitated and then handed Kyo the baby. Kyo rocked Gaara back and forth similar to the way temari did it. And Gaara woke up.

"Waaah!" Gaara waled. Kyo tried to calm him but couldn't. Kyo gave him back to Temari.

"He seems to be used to you." Kyo said. Temari smiled though she wanted to laugh. His child didn't like him.

"Shhh. Calm down." Gaara calmed down.

end of flashback

Temari missed Gaara. She wanted to see him again so she tried to make things right. She wanted him to forgive her. It was all Kyo's fault. She wished all the time that Her mother had never met Kyo. Or that some freak accident would happen and he would die but then she tried to think that Gaara and Kankuro would grow up without a father. though he was a satan, he was still for some weird reason a good father for them.

She stepped out of the shower. She felt better. She walked in the room and put on the clothes she had neatly spread on the bed. She was glad that Miki was fast asleep. At least one of them could relax and get some sleep.


"But he has a history of abusing her!" Sasuke yelled at the cop.

"Sir, Unless she has filed a complaint about his previous abuse there is nothing we can do to help you."

"She was to scared to file a complaint! She was just 16!" Sasuke was becoming frustrated. The cop was remaining calm.

"She was a minor. he could have been put away especially with some proof." Sasuke took a breathe.

"She was 16, pregnant, a runaway, and scared for her life, do you think she would take the time to go to the police. She's been afraid of this man for her whole life." Sasuke said. "If it was you, What would you do?"

"File a complaint."

"What about the child?" Sasuke asked.

"If the charges hold then there will be a restraining order from the mother but he will still have visiting right with the child unless it is proven that he has a abused them in anyway. How old is she now?"

"21."

"Then she's way past the minor age."

"Why should that matter?"

"Like I said she should of filed a complaint when she was 16. Then she would've had full custody of the child."

"But He had sex with her when she was a minor. doesn't that count for anything?"

"Look, If she wants to press charges, get her to come here and file a complaint. Until then, I can't help you." Sasuke took a breathe.

"Fine." He swalloed his pride and left. He was going to find away to get Kyo out of Temari's life.
