RECAP: It's pretty funny looking back at the other chapters I was a lot better about these and a lot worse about typos and I made like a huge mistake which you can read about at the bottom but yeah it sucks that I made it :( but at this point you probably don't care but I found it while I was re reading and oh man just read the bottom note
Naruto and Gaara were finally going home. Gaara was still getting used to walking. Naruto didn't want him to fall or anything so he was carrying him on his back. Gaara didn't want Naruto to have to carry him but he insisted.
"I can't wait to be home."
"I actually cleaned it too."
"To sleep in my own bed. Oh I can't wait."
"Do you want the bed to yourself for a few nights?"
"No, of course not."
Gaara kissed his cheek.
"Tsunade said you shouldn't strain yourself and to get a lot of rest. Won't you get more rest if I'm not taking up a ton of the bed?"
"That's what makes it our bed. Don't worry about it. I'll get plenty of sleep."
They were home. Naruto put Gaara down and let him try and walk inside. He collapsed on their bed after doing his best to walk. Naruto put his bag down and went in with him and laid down next to him.
"Naruto...what do you really think of my eye?"
"I love it."
"...You sure?"
"Of course I am. Why? What's wrong?"
"Nothing...but I mean I've got all these scars and now this eye...I mean will you ever find me attractive again?"
"What do you mean 'again'? I've never thought you were ugly."
"..."
"Gaara, you're gorgeous, come on. There's no way anyone could think otherwise."
"...I love you Naruto."
"I love you too."
MEANWHILE
Sakura had taken Sasuke back to his bed. She was filling him in on everything that'd happened.
"So does Kankuro do that to your other interns?"
"No, it was odd. I don't know what came over him but he just started firing off insults."
"Good for him. I met her."
"Yeah well."
"So hows Naru?"
"She's fine. I think she knows you're gone though."
"Can I see her?"
"Now?"
"...Well the sooner the better..."
"I'll ask. If she's awake I'll get Kiba to bring her down."
"Kiba?"
"Yeah, he took over for Neji. He's surprisingly good with kids."
Sakura called her house and asked Kiba if she was asleep. She wasn't, she wasn't even close to being tired so Kiba was going to bring her down.
"Isn't it dangerous for babies to be in hospital?"
"Not this ward. It's separate from the others, this ward is all physical, no diseases what so ever."
"So do you think I can hold her?"
"Do you?"
"...Yeah, I think so."
Sakura kissed him. She realized she hadn't kissed him since he'd been up. He'd been waiting for it and kissed back and put his hand on her face. A few moments later they broke the kiss and smiled at eachother.
"I missed you."
"I missed you too."
A few seconds later Kiba was at the door with Naru in a car seat, the one they'd brought her home from the hospital in. He tried to act charming not realizing Sasuke was awake. He brought her in and Sakura picked her up and out of the seat.
"OK Naru, say hi."
It was then that Kiba realized Sasuke was awake as he watched Sakura pass Naru to him. Naru lit up when she saw him which made Sasuke smile. He couldn't stop smiling the more he looked at her. Kiba felt like someone had ripped his heart out. He'd grown so close to Naru and even Sakura. He was jealous of Sasuke. Sakura couldn't stop watching the two of them. She was so glad that Naru would have her father. Sakura leaned over and kissed him. Kiba decided to go check on Gaara but he wasn't there. Instead he sat outside Sasuke's room and did his best not to listen in to their conversation to no avail. He brought his knees to his chest and rested his head on them.
"She looks just like you. It was actually pretty tough to even look at her for a while there."
"You promised you'd move on if I died."
"It's harder than it seems."
"I know, I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault."
MEANWHILE
"Gaara, do you find me any less attractive with this scar?"
"No."
"So why would I think that about you?"
"Cause I've got this ugly eye."
"It's not ugly, it beautiful."
"You have to say that..."
"No I don't. I want to because it's true."
Naruto got on top of him and kissed him. Naruto broke the kiss after a while.
"I love you Gaara."
"I love you too."
Naruto kissed him again and Gaara put his hands on the back of Naruto's head and Naruto held himself up on either side of Gaara. Gaara and Naruto rolled over on their sides and Naruto put his arms around Gaara. He then broke the kiss.
"You're too weak for this. You need to recover."
"That's for me to decide. I can handle it."
"I don't want to make your recovery worse."
"I'll be fine Naruto. Come on."
Gaara smiled at him and Naruto couldn't resist. He pressed himself against Gaara and kissed him again. Gaara ran his hands through his hair and Naruto ran his hands up Gaara's back. Gaara moved his hands and started to take Naruto's shirt off. Naruto started taking Gaara's shirt off too. After both were shirtless Naruto broke the kiss.
"...You sure you're ready?"
"Of course I am."
"You don't want to wait until you can actually walk?"
"Naruto. Stop worrying. Just enjoy it."
Naruto smiled and kissed him again. Naruto proceeded to strip both of them down to boxers. Naruto got on top of Gaara still kissing him and started to massage his member through his clothes. Gaara moaned and broke the kiss.
"What's wrong?"
"I've just missed you."
"I've missed you too."
Naruto started kissing his neck and kept massaging him. Gaara was moaning and writhing in pleasure. Naruto took Gaara's boxers off and started pumping his length. Gaara's face was red and he was moaning very loud. Naruto smiled at him as he wrapped his mouth around his member. Gaara was clutching the sheets and doing everything in his power not to start thrusting into Naruto's mouth. Naruto let go of his length and Gaara relaxed.
"Mm...why'd you stop?"
"You'll pull something if I keep going."
"Naruto-o. That's not fair. You have to finish what you start."
"I don't want to hurt you."
"You won't! I'm not frail Naruto. Have I ever been hurt by you?"
"Not yet."
"Ugh! Forget it!"
Gaara started to get up.
"Wait. Gaara, I mean look at this from my point of view. I almost lost you I don't want to do anything that could make that happen again."
"So treating me like an old lady is the way to go? You didn't even let me walk home."
"...Gaara. I was just trying to look out for you."
"I don't need you to pity me Naruto. You the only person who I can't handle pity from. I'm fine."
"...Alright, I'm sorry."
"It's OK."
Gaara got up and but his boxers back on and proceeded to look for the rest of his clothes.
"What are you doing?"
"Getting dressed."
"I thought you wanted me to finish what I started?"
"That's OK."
"Come on. Lay back down. I promise I won't take it easy."
Gaara took some time then smiled and stripped and got back in bed. Naruto got on top of him and kissed him much rougher than before and took his own boxers off. He then broke the kiss and Gaara smiled at him. Naruto kissed his neck and positioned his hips to enter into Gaara. Gaara wrapped his arms around Naruto. He started to push in and Gaara winced and tightened his grip around Naruto. Naruto stopped kissing his neck and looked at him.
"Something wrong?"
"Just hurts a little..."
"Want me to stop?"
"No it's just been a while."
"Alright, I'm gonna keep going then."
Naruto pushed his way into Gaara. Gaara winced a little but soon got over it. Naruto looked down again to make sure Gaara was OK.
"I'm fine Naruto. Just keep going."
"It's hard to keep going when you look like you're in pain."
"I'm not in pain, it feels good. Keep going."
Naruto kissed him again and started thrusting. Gaara soon got over his pain and both were moaning as Naruto increased speed. Gaara kept his arms around Naruto as they climaxed. Gaara's back arched and Naruto threw his head back. He then collapse next to Gaara, panting. Naruto rolled on his side and put his arm around Gaara.
"I told you I could take it."
"Sorry I ever doubted you. That was great."
Gaar turned and kissed Naruto and both of them fell asleep.
MEANWHILE
Kiba was still sitting out in the hallway waiting for Sasuke to get tired so he could take Naru home. Sasuke just couldn't stop holding her. Finally Sakura decided he needed sleep. She took Naru and put her in the car seat and went looking for Kiba. She didn't have to go far. She saw him curled up in a ball and kneeled in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
"Sasuke's awake. Don't get me wrong I'm glad but...now I have to leave you and Naru."
"You can always visit."
"It's not the same."
"I'll let you babysit anytime we need it."
"That's the thing. I was hoping when you say 'we' you'd be referring to you and me."
"...I'm sorry...I feel like I've been leading you on."
"Yeah, I feel like that too."
"I'm sorry. Can I have a hug?"
"...Sure."
Kiba dropped his knees and Sakura hugged him pretty tight.
"You know. It's hard to get over you when you're shoving your chest in my face."
"...Sorry."
"I'm gonna miss you and Naru."
"Thank you Kiba."
"...I'll take Naru home now."
Kiba picked her up and Sakura watched him leave. She walked back into Sasuke's room.
"What was that about?"
"...You know..."
"I know you're drop dead gorgeous but I never thought Kiba had a thing for you."
"Neither did I."
"So where are you sleeping tonight?"
"Here."
"Sakura. You know that cot is uncomfortable. You know you want to go home. I'll be here in the morning."
"No I'm staying here tonight."
"Go home and sleep. I'll still be here. I'm not going anywhere."
"But-"
"That cot is gonna give you back problems or something. Just go home and sleep."
"...OK. Goodnight Sasuke."
Sakura kissed him goodnight and went home. When she got there it was only about 9. Naru was getting tired and Kiba was putting her down to bed. He went to go get on the couch when he saw Sakura.
"Oh, hey."
"Hey."
"What are you doing here?"
"Sleeping."
"Oh. I think I'll go back home then...see you in the morning."
"You're leaving?"
"Not sleeping here again would make this whole process easier. It's a start but I think it'll work. Plus I'm not feeling so hot. Allergies or something so I shouldn't be around a baby right now."
"...OK. Goodnight Kiba."
"Goodnight."
Sakura went to bed. Kiba didn't want to go home, sleeping at his house would mean that he really wasn't going to be in Sakura's life anymore. The only person who'd gotten over Sakura was Naruto. That's where he went. He was feeling a little groggy from the allergy medicine he'd taken, he'd probably taken too much. He knocked on the door. Naruto was fast asleep. Gaara threw on some clothes and tried to walk to the door.
"Kiba?"
"...Hey..."
Gaara walked outside and shut the door behind him.
"What's wrong?"
"...Sakura."
"Oh...have a seat."
Gaara sat down leaning against the wall by their apartment door. Kiba sat next to him.
"Gaara who was your first love?"
"Naruto."
"...Damn it...everybody's with their first loves...it's not fair."
"...There's lots of people who's first love was not real love. Just like a really strong crush. You'll get over her. Naruto did."
"...He did didn't he?"
"Mhm."
Kiba scooted closer to him so Gaara put his arm around him. He was going to give him some more advice but was stopped by Kiba kissing him. He almost started kissing back until he remembered it wasn't Naruto. It was weird getting kissed by a guy who wasn't Naruto, it'd never happened to him. Aside from the fact that it wasn't Naruto it was a pretty nice kiss. Gaara gently pushed him off.
"...Wha...what?"
"This is how Naruto got over her."
"Naruto's gay. Are you drunk?"
"No of course not."
"Are you high?"
"...Actually...I think I took too much medicine..."
"Medicine doesn't do that...are you OK?"
"...I feel kinda funny..."
Gaara felt his head.
"You've got a fever Kiba. It's not the medicine that did all this. Come on."
Gaara helped Kiba up and got him a cool pack and some fever reducing medicine. He laid him on the couch and took his temperature.
"Kiba, you're sick."
"...It's just allergies..."
"Kiba...stressing about Sakura is only gonna make this worse. You're staying here tonight."
"...I'm sorry..."
"No it's fine. We have people sleep here all the time. No big deal."
"No I mean...about...you know..."
"You have a fever, it's OK. Plus you're a pretty good kisser."
"...Naruto's going to murder me."
"No he won't. You're judgment was impaired, it's like it never happened. If it comes up I'll tell him but otherwise I'll spare you the ass-kicking."
"...Thanks Gaara...for everything."
"You're welcome. Goodnight Kiba."
"Goodnight Gaara..."
"That kiss might not have worked but you'll definitely get over her. I'm sure of it."
Gaara got him a blanket and went back to bed. Naruto was still not waking up. Gaara climbed in bed next to him and put his arm around him.
