RECAP:I'm a terrible person and it's been weeks since I updated and I'm really sorry, really really really sorry. You might have to re-read the last one but again I'm sooooo sorry. I had this weird bout of just complete disinterest in like everything I did so of course writing was hard and what I did write friggin suuuuucckked so I'm soooo sorry

Gaara and Matsuri were going down to the hospital to pick up the kids. Kankuro was trying to nap Naruto wouldn't let him.

"When are you getting married?"

"Sometime after this nap."

"You've like asked her fathers blessing and all the crap right?"

"Doesn't have parents. Grandparents, senile, in a home."

"...Aw..."

"Can I sleep now?"

"No, so have you two-ya know..."

Deidara became interested.

"She's hot, of course he has."

"We have but ever since we got engaged like a million years ago she wont."

"...Really? How long have you been engaged?"

"Well...like 2 months but that's a long time."

"That sucks."

Naruto interrupted Deidara.

"That's not that odd...but why wouldn't she?"

"Because she thinks I'm like addicted so I said lets wait til the wedding...but we don't have a fucking date."

"She sounds like...a prude."

"Well, you and Gaara did it on the first date. At least she's not a whore."

Deidara looked at him, surprised.

"Seriously?"

"...The first technical date...we'd known each other way before that."

"The first date? I can see you doing that but not Gaara."

"Whatever."

Kankuro stopped their back and forth.

"At least I know she's not a whore."

"...She might be."

"What?"

"I'm just saying you might not be her only source."

"You can't talk about her like that!"

"OK, OK, I get it. But I mean, you two might not get married for another year or something."

"...Let me sleep."

"No, you have to make it with her."

"Leave me alone."

"Do it tonight."

"I'd love to but this isn't my apartment."

"I don't care."

"Well maybe I want to wait until the wedding."

"Don't be such a girl."

"...Shut up. I can wait."

"Ok let me ask you this, how many times have you almost done it?"

"...That's not important."

"Ah, she obviously wants to, why don't you just go with it?"

"..."

"Look she's obviously waiting because you suggested it, not because she wants to. She's just as horny as you."

"Seriously don't talk about her like that."

"Just man up and bang her."

"...I'm taking a nap."

MEANWHILE

Matsuri were on the way to pick up the kids.

"So do you have a date yet?"

"No, not yet."

"So've you two-"

"I'm not talking about this with you."

"Aw, come on! I'm curious."

"Seriously, I can't do this with you."

"Come on, we're close, we can talk about this."

"No, I can only talk about this stuff with Kankuro, but it's not like I have anything to say."

"Nothin' to complain about, eh?"

"...You could say that."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Kankuro said we should wait until the wedding."

"But you don't even have a date!"

"I know, it's killing me, every time we're alone I wanna pounce on him but then I remember he wants to wait."

"Why don't you just ask him."

"I don't know...I feel like if I've waited this long I might as well wait until the wedding."

"Just go for it."

"Alright alright."

They picked up the kids and brought them back to their designated apartments. It was getting late but Sakura and 3 had to stay. Gaara and Matsuri went back to the apartment. As soon as they did Naruto and Deidara were walking out.

"Come on Gaara we're going to dinner."

Matsuri suggested they go too.

"Nope, we're going to that place that makes you wanna throw up."

"What place is that?"

"The place we're going to, come on Gaara."

Gaara went along with it. Kankuro was still asleep on the couch. Deidara, Naruto and Gaara went to get some barbeque.

"Why couldn't they come with?"

"We're trying to get your brother laid Gaara."

"Oh...ew...that's our apartment."

"So what? We do it in there all the time."

"We live there."

"Anyway, what do you want to eat?"

MEANWHILE

Matsuri walked in and kissed Kankuro's forehead. She went to the kitchen to find them something to eat. When she started going through the kitchen she seriously hoped that they'd bring them back something. Kankuro started waking up.

"...Where'd everyone go...what time is it?"

"Morning."

"When'd you get back? Where is everybody?"

"I came back about thirty minutes ago and that's when everyone else went."

"Where'd they go?"

"Dinner."

"...Are they gonna bring us back something?"

"Probably. How long'd you sleep?"

"...Too long. I probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

"Way to go."

"So why didn't you go with everyone else?"

"They said they were going to some place where I hate the food. I guess the three of them wanted to talk about something, didn't want me there."

"Wonder what it could be."

Matsuri left the kitchen. She lifted Kankuro's feet and put them on her lap as she sat down. She stared into space and absent-mindedly started rubbing his leg.

"Something wrong Matsu?"

"...Something Gaara said..."

"What was it?"

"...Why are we all of the sudden abstinent?"

"Naruto said something about that to me too..."

"Do you think that's why they left us here?"

"Could be..."

"Why?"

"...I don't know."

"I mean...we almost have a lot so why didn't we just go for it then?"

"How should I know."

"You're the guy, you should initiate it."

"Why should I have to?"

"Fine, I will."

Matsuri laid down on top of him and kissed him. Kankuro ran his hand up her back.

"You sure?"

"Quit talking."

Matsuri kissed him again and they slowly sat up. Matsuri got her legs around his waist. He slowly stood up and carried her to the guest room. He laid her down on the bed and got on top of her. She pulled his shirt off and he started on hers. She helped him and threw it across the room. She started pushing his pants off and he started on hers. Once they were both off Kankuro reached under her and she arched her back as he unhooked her bra. He pulled it off of her and started kissing down her chest as she held his head closer. She was moaning and groaning and squirming in pleasure. Kankuro started taking off her panties and she did the same to his boxers.

"Hang on."

Kankuro covered himself up a little as he turned the lights off and closed the door. He then got back on top of her and she giggled. He got between her legs and leaned down and kissed her.

"So...now?"

"Mhm, now."

"You're sure you wanna do this?"

"For the love of-just put it in!"

"Ah, ok ok...ok..."

Kankuro kissed her again as he started pushing in her. She shut her eyes tight.

"...Alright move a little. Did you forget how to do this?"

"Very funny."

Kankuro started moving in her. Kankuro started getting a little faster and they got louder and louder. Kankuro had missed seeing her face with such an expression. Kankuro got even faster and Matsuri was screaming in pleasure as the orgasmed. Kankuro rode it out with her as her muscles convulsed around him. He leaned down and kissed her then he laid down next to her and put his arm across her chest, right under he breasts. She lightly ran her hand over the arm on her chest. Both panting.

"I love you Matsu."

"I love you too."

"You're beautiful."

"Aw! I'm already marrying you, you don't need to give me compliments."

"It's just the truth."

Matsuri leaned closer and kissed him.

"I'm cold."

"Let's get under the covers."

Kankuro pulled the covers over them both and kissed Matsuri's neck as he wrapped his arms around her. She started falling asleep as he covered her in kisses. She started waking up again a few minutes later.

"I'm gonna get some water, I'll be right back."

Kankuro kissed her as she sat up and threw on an oversized shirt that went half way down her thigh, sufficiently covering everything. She went to the kitchen and got out a glass. Just then the front door opened. She wasn't sure whether to run to the room or hide, her shock inhibited her from doing either.

"No, I think if you cut your hair you'd look more like a guy."

"But I love my hair."

"Then get over it."

"But that waiter was hitting on me, that was-naked."

"...Ok...I'm pretty sure he wasn't naked."

"She's definitely not wearing anything under that."

"Wha-"

Naruto looked where Deidara was looking and saw Matsuri wide-eyed and staring at them. They then heard Kankuro call for her.

"...Hey..."

"..."

"...Oh man guys, I left something right outside the door, we should all go see it, now."

Naruto took them outside and waited until he heard the guest door shut before he went in again. Matsuri ran back to the guest room, shut the door and jumped into bed next to Kankuro.

"Whoa, what's the hurry?"

"They came back."

Kankuro started laughing and kissed her. She laughed too, over her embarrassment. He ran his hand up her thigh and she mewed into his mouth. They heard the others come back in and quieted down.

"We brought you two food if you want it. Deidara's on the couch so make yourselves decent before you come out here."

Naruto and Gaara went into their room and changed. Deidara got on the couch and started watching TV. Naruto and Gaara got in their twin bed.

"Naruto, don't you ever feel like I've just...completely intruded on your life?"

"Why are you asking that now?"

"...I mean...like Temari is permanently here, Kankuro is constantly visiting and...I've been here for over a decade and I'm taking up space."

"Gaara, you're not intruding on my life. Mainly because it's not my life it's our life. We're married. Why are you so worried about this now?"

"...I don't know."

"Well don't, there's no reason to worry."

"Don't you want to get a bigger bed?"

"...If you want..."

"I'm fine with this one but...how can you not feel suffocated by me?"

"Because I love you...are you feeling suffocated by me?"

"No, never."

"So stop freaking me out. We've been married for over a decade. Why don't you feel at home yet?"

"I do but sometimes-sometimes...I mean my stuff is still back at my house so...the apartment looks just like it did the first time I was here when we were 16."

"Everything here is yours now."

Gaara smiled and Naruto kissed him. He wrapped his arms around him and held him closer. Matsuri and Kankuro were getting hungry. Matsuri put on some underwear and shorts in addition to her big shirt. Kankuro put on pants and they peeked out the door to see if Deidara was still awake.

"No, I'm not asleep, no I don't care if you eat your food but you have to share."

"But you already ate."

"I didn't. The waiter kept making eyes at me, I couldn't concentrate."

"I'm not sharing."

"What about you Ma...Ma...Matsu...damn it."

"It's Matsuri."

"Right, I bet Matsumi will share."

They walked out and went through their food. Deidara joined them. They both shared with him. He was sitting next to Matsuri with his arm on her.

"So Matsumi, ever thought about sleeping with a blond?"

Matsuri was laughing a little but Kankuro was glaring at him. He got closer to her and whispered in her ear.

"You know I've got three tongues, think about all the places they'll go."

"Enough Deidara."

"What? Before she gets married to you she should try me out. So Kankuro, what does her sex face look like?"

"...Go to bed."

"With her?"

"..."

Kankuro got up and Matsuri followed him and kissed him over and over. Deidara finished the food and got back on the couch. Kankuro laid down and Matsuri draped herself over him.

"Don't get mad, I'd never-"

"I'm not worried about you."

"So don't be mad."

Matsuri started falling asleep on him and he did too. Deidara left the TV on and fell asleep. The next morning Naruto and Gaara slept in, they were starting training later since the kids had school today. Kankuro went to see Temari, Matsuri was tired so he let her sleep. She woke up about twenty minutes after he left and got up to get breakfast. Deidara woke up when she was eating her cereal.

"Morning."

"Hey. Where's your boyfriend?"

"Fiancee. And he went to see Temari."

"You sure about that?"

"Huh?"

"This village has plenty of gorgeous women. Maybe you're not that great. Maybe he's gone to find himself a mistress in advance."

"...He wouldn't do that."

"Of course not, of course not."

Deidara got off of the couch and walked into the kitchen with Matsuri.

"No bra even though I'm here?"

Matsuri started covering herself up as best she could.

"..."

"You're really asking for it."

"..."

"So three tongue, imagine how those would feel, running all over you. Good right?"

"Leave me alone."

"You started it."

"...He wouldn't do that...he's going to Temari's."

"I'm sure he is."

"...So why did you say that?"

"Don't you trust him?"

"Yeah, I do. I do, he's at Temari's."

She put down her cereal and started to leave. Deidara stepped in front of her.

"Move."

"No, I don't think you want me to."

"Yes I do. It was funny the first time."

"But I wasn't joking. Just try me."

"No perv! Get out of my way."

"Just once. Let me see your sex face."

Deidara kissed her and put his hands up her shirt. She could feel his other tongue on her stomach. She pushed him off before he got any higher.

"What?"

"Don't ever do that again."

"...You're serious?

"Yes!"

"...Well fine then. You're missing out though."

Deidara went and pouted on the couch. Naruto and Gaara got up and Matsuri got dressed. She left to go meet Kankuro at Temari's. Naruto and Gaara started eating, Deidara joined.

"So fags, how was gay sex?"

"Don't call me a fag Deidara."

"Call 'em like I see 'em."

"Homophobe."

"No I just know when things are right, and when things are wrong."

"...Which one are we Dei?"

"Haven't decided yet. Some gay couples get married just because they can and want to prove something to people...but I don't think that's what you two are."

"You're right, that's not us."

"You guys are actually in gay love. Weird."

"Why's that weird?"

"I just can't imagine having romantic feelings for a dude."

"Everyone has gay thoughts. All straight people do."

"Not me, straight as a pole."

"So you could kiss me right now and not feel anything?"

"Yes I could."

"Ha, doubt it."

Deidara was a little insulted. He leaned down and kissed Gaara. Gaara had always been a good kisser, no matter who with so Deidara was actually enjoying it when he remembered he was straight. He got up and left.

"What the hell was that Gaara?"

"Messing with him so he'll get off our backs about everything."

"So obviously the only way to do that is kiss him."

"It wasn't good. Tasted like clay."

Naruto got up fast and threw his bowl in the sink. Gaara got up and hugged him from behind. Gaara kissed his neck and nuzzled up to his neck.

"...I'm sorry."

"...It's ok..."

"Will you kiss me?"

"I'd be glad to."

Naruto laughed and turned around to kiss Gaara. The phone rang right after and Gaara grabbed it.

"Yeah?"

"It's me."

"Who's me?"

"Sakura."

"Oh, need me to get Naru?"

"No, Tsunade got a message from Suna, you have to go back."

"Why?"

"Since your dad died there has been no Kazekage for some reason."

"...Well that's not good. Why are they asking for me ten years later though?"

"They were doing fine so they figured they didn't need to bother you with this. Suna's just had a blow to the staff they've created to replace Kazekage. Some mission to the waves."

"...So they want me to do what?"

"How about this? Go talk to Tsunade so she can give you the official details."

"Wait they don't want me to be the Kazekage do they?"

"Look, I've got a transplant and a playdate in like five minutes. Tsunade told me to tell you like two days ago I just remembered. Go see her."

"...Ok..."

He hung up and got dressed. Naruto was in the shower so he left without telling him. He got to her office and went in.

"Oh you good. Ready to go?"

"Hang on, hang on. Go where?"

"You've gotta go be Kazekage."

"...Well I can't do that. My life's here now."

"Well unless you want Suna to go down the drain fast you'll go."

"...How long would I be gone?"

"I don't know. Could be a year, could be a month, could be a few months or week every year, could be forever. I don't know. What I do know is you can't stay here, you have to go. You should be ready by now, do you want an escort?"

"I should be ready by now?"

"Yeah, Sakura told you on time right?"

"Of course...but...what if I don't want to be Kazekage?"

"Then it sucks for you. Go. I swear if I get an angry message from Suna I will murder you. Oh and they want Temari and Kankuro to come back and check in too."

"...Why can't Kankuro be Kazekage?"

"They want you! Go!"

He walked out. He slowly went back home, wondering what he would tell Naruto. He got back and Kankuro and Matsuri were packing. Temari was there with her bags. Shikamaru was with her.

"Where's Naruto?"

"He went down to the hospital to watch Naru for Sakura."

"...When'll he be back?"

"Not for a while she's got some heart surgery on this little kid."

"...Oh, that's so sad. Why's everyone here?"

"We have to go back to the Sand remember?"

"Like now?"

"Yes, like now."

"...I don't think I'm going..."

"You haven't been back in ten years, it'll be fun."

"...I'll be there...later."

"You're Kazekage now, you can't just go later."

"How does everyone know about this?"

"Tsunade told us."

"...I don't want to be Kazekage."

"Oh, you're just nervous. Come on, let's go."

"How are you gonna go? You're pregnant."

"I can still go. It'll take me a little longer but only by like a day."

"...So I can't get out of this?"

"No, come on. We'll be at the gate. Say bye to Naruto and let's go."

"...Yeah...ok..."

"Come on, get excited. Lots of people'll be happy to see you."

"..."

"Well...some will be happy to see you."

"...I'll be right there."

They left and waited at the gate for him. He packed his bag, thinking about what it was going to be like to go back. He hadn't been back in over ten years. He hadn't been back since his date with Naruto getting close to twelve years ago. His stuff was probably just as he left it. Probably. He didn't even bother to go back and get his things when he moved in. That was probably why he still sometimes felt like a guest at Naruto's sometimes. He finished packing but Naruto wasn't back. That was OK. He didn't want to have to tell him to his face. He left a note on the bed and left.

He got to the gate where everyone was waiting. Gaara, Matsuri and Kankuro would be farther ahead of Temari and Shikamaru. Shikamaru was going just incase she went in to labor which Temari repeatedly told him was impossible at this point in her pregnancy but he wanted to be sure. Naruto got back from the hospital. Deidara was asleep on the couch. He wasn't really sure what happened to everyone since he was half asleep. He looked around for Gaara and the other but of course nothing. Some how the note Gaara left got swept away under the bed. Naruto figured he just went out for something.

Hours later he asked Deidara but he didn't know. He told himself Gaara'd be back soon. The next day he called Sakura to check if she knew.

"Suna you idiot."

"What?"

"...He went back to the Suna for a little while because he's been named Kazekage...remember?"

"No I don't remember! No one told me and he's been missing for a day! I almost filed a report."

"Didn't he tell you?"

"No...he didn't...I wonder why..."

"He'll probably be back soon."

"...I gotta go Sakura, thanks."

He hung up mad and upset and confused. He had to go to the Sand. He walked into his room to change before he went. He sat on the edge of the bed to take his shoes off. Once of them slipped slightly under the bed and he heard a rustle. He reached under and grabbed Gaara's note.

'Naruto, I have to go back to the sand for a few days. You're at the hospital and I have to go now, so I'm sorry. I'll be back soon so you don't need to come get me. I'll call when I get there I promise. I love you.'

Naruto was furious, he crumpled the note up and shoved it in his pocket. Naruto went to the Sand. He got there a day after Gaara, Temari and Shikamaru still beat him there.
