Typhoon
Chapter Fifteen
-Wedding-
Gaara's eyes flashed open. Today was the day he was getting married. He rolled over and looked at the slumbering face of his beautiful bride. A smile crept up his face. Today she would be dressed in white and all for him. Carefully he got out of bed, doing his best not to disturb her. He decided he would take another shower, just because he wanted her perfect day to be flawless. Women got pretty crazy during these days, didn't they? After his shower, he dressed. There were a lot of things he needed to get done today. Pick up the tuxes, make sure everything got to the hotel, and all of the guests had to be checked in. He sighed, looking back at his lovely lady. He left the room and came back shortly with a white rose. Having made his side of the bed, he placed the flower on his pillow.
The redhead walked around the bed and leaned down, kissing the top of her head. "I can't wait to marry you today." He whispered, leaving in his usual manner.
About an hour later, Sakura woke up. Stretching, she turned her head to the right and smiled. She grabbed the white rose and brought it to her face, inhaling its scent deeply. He was so romantic when he wanted to be.
Getting out of bed, she stretched once again. She walked into the bathroom and showered once more, wanting to be as clean as possible. She got dressed in her normal clothes, and headed over to the hotel. When she arrived, she went straight to her room to get ready. Ino, Hinata, Tenten and Temari arrived about ten minutes later, and the fancy, clean room transformed into one that looked like a tornado had just blown through it. There was a flurry of makeup and hair products.
Once that was all taken care of, they each put on their dresses. When Sakura pulled her wedding dress out, there was a collective gasp. "Sakura! That dress is beautiful!" Temari said.
"Yeah Forehead. You really know how to pick them." Ino said, reaching out to touch the lace.
"Thank you guys." Sakura said. She pulled the dress out of its wrapper and put it on. It was a strapless dress that was somewhat tight around the torso and flowed loosely past her hips. The entire top half of the dress was covered in a see through lace that went an inch above the dress on the top, and completely covered her arms.
The veil was made of a sheer lace that was trimmed in the same pattern that was on her dress. It was secured to a headband which was decorated with cherry blossoms made out of jewels. Her hair was twisted into a bun, with her bangs hanging down in soft curls at the side of her face.
"Wow Sakura, you're a vision in white." Ino said, clasping her hands together.
"Thanks Ino. That means a lot." Sakura said, smiling at her friend.
Hinata walked towards her then, holding a diamond bracelet. "Here Sakura. Something borrowed." She said softly.
"And here," Ino said, handing her a blue garter. "Something blue."
"Something old." Temari said, giving her a pair of diamond earrings. "These were my mother's."
"And something new." Tenten said, holding up her left hand and showing her her engagement ring.
"Thank you guys!" Sakura said, eyes beginning to water.
Ino rolled her eyes. "Oh come on Forehead. Don't ruin your makeup! I'm not gonna do it again!"
"Hey! That's my line!" Temari said smiling.
They continued to get ready, only having to fix each other's hair and make sure that they each smelled nice. They had less than thirty minutes to show time, and Sakura couldn't wait.
Gaara looked in the mirror. His stomach dropped, and he couldn't believe how nervous he was. He reached up and began to straighten his red tie. Neji came up behind him, resting a comforting hand on his friend's shoulder. "Today's the big day Gaara, just relax."
The redhead nodded, still unable to calm his nerves. Kiba walked beside him, standing on his other side. "Dude what's wrong? Your dark aura is back."
"What? No it's not." He glared at the brunette, who simply laughed at his response.
"Yeah it is. Trust me man, I can tell.'
With a sigh, he decided to come right out and say it. "Well," he began, turning to the rest of his groom's party. Shikamaru and Naruto looked over, having been preoccupied with their black jackets. "It's just that…Sakura wants to have children…and I do too but,"
"But?" they all asked in unison, even Shikamaru.
"I just…don't think I'll be a good dad. I'm afraid. Since you know who my father was. What if I hurt them?" Gaara asked.
Shikamaru rolled his eyes, Naruto almost exploded with what he had to say, but it was Kiba who spoke up first. "Gaara, just because you're dad was a terrible father does not mean you will be. My dad left me, but that doesn't change how I would act. If I ever did get a kid, there's no way I would leave it."
Neji nodded, "You would make a great father Gaara. It's just like the old saying goes: a man always tries to shoot higher than his father. I know that you would be able to control yourself."
"Yeah Gaara!" Naruto pumped his fist in the air. "You'd be the best dad ever! Well…of course other than me," he smirked, pointing his thumb at himself then.
The Kazekage looked around at the group, a smile almost coming to his face. He would try to be a good dad, and if those kids were anything like Sakura, they would be easy to love. "Thanks guys…" he gave them a nod, and then took a deep breath. It was nearing sunset, meaning it was time to take the stage.
They all fastened their black jackets over their silver vests. All the groomsmen had black ties, while Gaara's was a deep red. They left the room and headed for the room where the ceremony would be held. They stopped in front of the side door that would lead them onto the stage. Finally they filed in, Naruto following Gaara, being the best man, the train consisting then of Neji, Kiba, and then Shikamaru.
The whole room was filled. People from Konoha and Suna on each side for the wedding. And surprisingly, even Yoko and Sosuke were there. As they took their designated spots, Gaara glanced over at his best man and went wide eyed. There replacing his black tie, was an awful orange one. Terror shot through him, but he didn't want to cause a scene, "Naruto." Gaara seethed through clenched teeth, trying to keep his smile on his face. "Take that disgusting orange thing off. Now."
"Are you kidding me?" the blonde whispered back. "It's my lucky tie! No way in heck am I gonna take it off."
"I swear to God Naruto. If you do not take that tie off, I will kill you."
"What's going on?" Neji asked just as the music began to play from the orchestra.
"Naruto is wearing the ugliest orange tie I have ever seen." The redhead informed the Hyuuga. Neji looked forward to try and get a glimpse.
"Naruto," the brunette had to stop himself from yelling. "Take it off."
"Dude Naruto, Sakura is going to murder you when she see's that." Kiba interjected.
"No she isn't. Sakura-chan loves my sense of fashion." The blonde said, dismissing the topic.
Just then the double doors at the end of the room opened, and in walked the flower girl. Shortly after the bridesmaids entered, starting with Tenten, then Hinata, and then Temari. After a few moments Ino entered as the Maid of Honor, looking every bit the role. Once they were all situated at the front of the room, everyone paused. Then Sakura came into view, along with Kakashi, who was all dressed up for the occasion, but still wearing his mask.
Sakura looked up and made eye contact with Gaara. She smiled at him, her emerald eyes full of love. Suddenly a flash of orange caught her eye, and she looked to Gaara's right. Her gaze narrowed at what she saw. Naruto was wearing the most hideous tie she had ever seen in her life. She would be damned if he ruined her wedding with that thing.
"Naruto…" Neji tried to keep his smile. "Sakura looks like she's going to stab you when she gets up here. You better get rid of that thing."
Gaara didn't care anymore, Sakura looked beautiful. He couldn't believe how perfect she looked, even with her murderous gaze now set on Naruto. It only made her more attractive, and it was one of the reasons why he loved her so much. He stepped down the few stairs and met Kakashi and his beloved.
Handing Sakura over to the redhead, Kakashi gave him a glare. "I hate you." He said, turning away and sitting down next to Tsunade on the front row. At Gaara's confused look, Sakura shrugged.
They walked up the steps and stood in front of the priest. Sakura looked into Gaara's eyes lovingly, and then switched over to the blonde, narrowing her gaze. Before anyone could notice, she looked back up at Gaara, smiling.
Naruto had begun to sweat nervously. He knew what promises that look held. So, as discreetly as possible, he ripped the tie off his neck and stuffed it into his pocket.
The priest cleared his throat and both Gaara and Sakura, still veiled, focused on him. "Dearly beloveds, we are all gathered here today to celebrate a very important bond, one that not only unites two young individuals…but two villages."
"Now, this couple has decided to write their own vows, which they will now recite to each other, before being eternally joined in holy matrimony." He gave them each a bow and stepped back. Gaara took both of Sakura's hands in his and faced her full on.
"Sakura, I love you. You are my life, without you I find it hard to breathe and now…I can't imagine a life where you are not by my side. I want to make you happy, I want to make you smile and laugh, I want to give you all the things you could ever want. You are my purpose, and I will devote my life to you…from this day on." He smiled, meaning every word. He wasn't even embarrassed that he had said all this in front of a large crowd. He was glad to finally pronounce that Sakura was his to the world. He pulled a white gold band from his pocket and slid it on her finger to join with her diamond.
The pink haired woman smiled back at him. "Gaara, you are my world. I can't go five minutes without wondering what you are doing, or if you're thinking of me, as I am thinking of you. Whenever I need you, you're there. I want you to be the last one I see when I go to bed at night, and the first one I see when I wake up in the mornings. I love you more than life itself, and would do anything to make you happy. Seeing you smile…it means the world to me." She said, eyes watering from all the emotion she was feeling. She took the matching white gold band off her bouquet and slid it onto his own ring finger. Now she had evidence to the whole world that he belonged to her.
After they had finished they both looked at the priest, who took his spot in front of them once more. "Now, if anyone has any reason for these two to not be wed, please speak now, or forever hold your peace."
At this Kakashi began to stand. But before he could, Tsunade reached out and clutched his knee, causing him to let out a pained gasp, his visible eye crinkled in pain. Everyone in the room looked over at the two, various expressions on their faces. Sakura just looked at the priest and shook her head, signaling for him to continue.
"Well then by the power vested in me, I can now happily pronounce you husband and wife." He smiled, gesturing for Gaara to lift the veil. "You may kiss your bride."
With that said Gaara placed his hands under the lace veil and started to lift it from her face. All the girls began to smile, doing their best to hold in squeals. Finally jade met wet emerald and the redhead tossed the veil over her head. He smiled, she looked amazing. He took her face in his hands and leaned closer. "You look so beautiful Sakura." He whispered, pressing his lips against hers in their most passionate kiss yet.
She smiled into the kiss and threw her arms around his neck, returning his passion equally. By now all of the guests were standing and applauding. Well, all except Sasuke, who was scowling, and Kakashi, who was in too much pain to stand.
They pulled apart from their kiss after a few more moments. Lacing their fingers together, they made their way down the aisle, followed by their bridesmaids and groomsmen. Ino and Naruto linked arms and followed the newlyweds. Then Neji and Tenten, Hinata and Kiba, and Shikamaru and Temari.
After the photographs had been taken of the wedding party and the bride and groom, they finally went off to the reception where all the guests had already adjourned. Gaara and Sakura stood outside the room, the double doors closed as they awaited their introduction. The redhead glanced over at his beautiful bride, before leaning over and whispering into her ear. "How does it feel to be Sabaku no Sakura?"
Sakura smiled up at him. "Like a dream come true." She said, squeezing his hand.
At the sound of their new joined name and the opening of the doors, they walked in hand in hand, surrounded by applause. Surprisingly, Gaara didn't hate being in the spotlight this time. He wanted them all to see how much he loved Sakura. They made their way to the main table and sat down in the two empty seats with the rest of the wedding party. At this everyone else began to find their seats. And once it was quiet enough, Ino stood and tapped her glass with a fork.
The room went silent then and the waiters started filling everyone's glasses with champagne. "I just wanted to make a toast to the lovely couple. May your marriage be filled with happiness and love. And don't think Kiba and I won't come over often, cause' we will." The blonde said, smiling.
Sakura laughed at this, glancing at Gaara from the corner of her eye. He didn't look too happy at the thought of seeing her two friends every so often. As Ino sat down, Naruto stood up.
"So, I'm really only making this speech cause' I have to, you know, as the best man and all. And I don't really have any pretty words prepared, so I'm just gonna wing it!" he exclaimed, smiling goofily.
At this announcement Sakura gripped her champagne glass fiercely. Dear god please let him not say anything too embarrassing. Gaara glanced over at his friend, his thoughts on a more threatening note. If he ruined this with his idiocy he would pay.
"Well…I'd just like to start off with a couple things!" he practically yelled, even though everyone could hear him clearly. That was when Gaara noticed the disgusting orange tie that was back around Naruto's neck. That tie would be his downfall when the Kage used it to strangle the blonde. "I'm so happy for my best friend, there really is no better girl in the world…besides Hinata-chan, who's more beautiful and brilliant than anyone else I have ever known. But Gaara, you got a good one, not quite as good as Hinata-chan, but pretty close! Since you know Hinata-chan's mine and all." He laughed loudly, rubbing his finger under his nose.
Gaara's eye visibly twitched, he should have known better than to let the moron speak. Continuing, the fox boy only got brasher. "But this isn't about Hinata-chan right now. It's about Gaara and Sakura-chan…who have taught me something very important. Because good God, they couldn't have been any stupider!" At this the glass in Gaara's hand shattered from the tightened grip.
"TWO WEEKS it took for them to realize what they meant to each other…I mean how dense can you get? They practically did it on his desk before they admitted to each other they were in love!" Naruto laughed once more, slapping his knee as if it were the funniest thing in the world.
Sakura's glass didn't even shatter at this, it was ground into dust. Pure. Glass. Dust. Her other hand was clutching the table. If he didn't shut up right now….she was going to shove that hideous tie down his throat. Problem solved.
"But back to the point. Watching these two morons made me realize that when you find the one, you want to stay with them forever. And not take so frickin' long to tie the knot. I mean, really guys? You had to meet up every once in a while for six months? Do you realize how depressed Sakura-chan was after Gaara would leave? Talk about needy." He said, face completely serious.
Sakura's fingers dug into the wood of the table through the white table cloth. That's it. He was going to die.
"And then Gaara, come on man. Every time you guys were together you were all mean, and possessive. You might as well have put on an ape suit and pounded on your chest, screaming 'Cherry Blossom mine!' That's how obvious you were." The blonde continued, shaking his head at his friend.
"Uh Naruto…" Neji tried to silence the man, but was interrupted by the continued speech. Gaara was seething now, he was so angry he couldn't see straight anymore.
"And then when you guys finally got engaged. I mean come on, a whole month? I would have thought with as far as you guys had gone you would be married on the spot! But aside from that…guys," he turned to the two murderous auras, completely oblivious to their intent. "Thanks to both of your arrogant, prideful, annoying, sexual tension building, teasing behavior, I realized something. I don't want to be a moron like Gaara and Sakura-chan. So today! At my best friend's wedding," Naruto stopped and faced Hinata, who was sitting beside him. "Hinata-chan…I want to marry you. So that we don't have to beat around the bush…just like our retarded friends." With that Naruto kneeled down and pulled out a velvet box, showing Hinata the diamond ring he had gotten for her.
"So what do you say?" he asked, nothing but love in his eyes for the quiet girl.
By now Gaara had a knife in his hand, ready to stab the moron beside him. He looked over at Sakura and leaned over. "I say…after the reception we take Naruto to a dark alley and kill him there. It'll be easier to cover up." He said, completely serious.
There were finger lines on the table where she had dragged her hand down it in anger. But her gaze softened slightly. "We can't kill him now, Hinata will be devastated. He finally popped the question! I say we take him to that torture chamber beneath the Kazekage Tower. That way he can be kept alive. Barely." She said.
"Yeah, yeah. Then we can get payback." He nodded, returning his gaze back on the newly engaged couple.
Hinata's face was the reddest it had ever been. She didn't know what to say. Well, she knew what to say, she just didn't expect this to happen to her. Ever. She nodded. "Y-yes Naruto-kun. I would love to marry you."
The blonde whooped joyfully, sliding the ring onto her finger and bringing her up for a fierce hug. Then he pulled away and kissed her passionately, not caring that they had an audience. At this Kakashi stood up and began to clap.
"Atta boy Naruto! I'm so proud of you." The jounin said, a tear in his visible eye.
Gaara rolled his eyes, leaning back in his chair. He really, really hated Kakashi. After the initial glow was over the redhead grabbed onto the back of Naruto's jacket and yanked him down into his seat. "Naruto," he said, leaning over a bit.
"Yes Gaara?"
"I don't want to hear your voice for the rest of the night, do you understand?" he asked, now holding the back of the blonde's neck painfully.
Before he could respond, Gaara heard one of the coordinators begin to talk. "And now it's time for Kazekage-sama and Sakura-sama to share their first dance as a married couple." He looked over at Sakura, who seemed to have calmed down by now. He took her hand eagerly, since he did love dancing with her. They stood together and made their way to the cleared area for their dance. Sakura placed her hand in his, and her other on his shoulder. And as the music started, they began to move together in perfect rhythm. "We're married," Gaara laughed, leaning down and giving her a small kiss.
She kissed him back and pulled away, smiling. "Now everyone knows you're mine." She said, talking about his fan girls.
He smirked, bringing her closer. "I'm pretty sure everyone already knew that."
"But now it's official." She said, smiling.
There were now others on the dance floor with the couple, Neji and Tenten and Naruto and Hinata. There was a deep cough, and Gaara glanced over to see Kakashi, "May I cut in." he offered his hand towards Sakura, but his glare never left the redhead.
"Sure," he agreed reluctantly, taking Sakura's hand and placing it in Kakashi's.
"You know Sensei, you still have lousy timing. I mean, we didn't even get to finish our first dance." Sakura whined, smiling slightly at the silver haired jounin.
"Hey cut me a break Sakura. At least I didn't object to your union with that boy." Kakashi said, glaring over towards the redhead, who was now talking with Kiba.
"That's because Shishou stopped you. And even if you did object, I would have thrown you through the wall so fast you'd come flying through the opposite one." She said, giving him a stern look.
"Yes well, glad that didn't happen then." He replied. Then he looked at her seriously. "Remember Sakura. Numbers one, two, and three. They still apply."
She rolled her eyes at him. "Whatever Sensei. We're married now, those things are gonna happen. You just have to get over it."
Before Kakashi could say anything more Sasuke was next to them, asking for a dance. Their old sensei handed her over, smiling at the Uchiha. If Sakura had just married Sasuke, Kakashi wouldn't have threatened him. Because he actually liked Sasuke.
Sakura and Sasuke began to dance, albeit a bit awkwardly for her. "You look amazing Sakura." Sasuke said, gazing at her appreciatively.
"Thanks Sasuke." She smiled slightly, hoping that their conversation didn't take a turn for the worse.
It did.
"You know, what I said last night still stands. Whenever you get tired of him, I'll be waiting for you. And don't worry, I want kids. We can have as many as you want, the sky's the limit." He said, giving her an earnest look.
By now she was looking around for Gaara, wanting him to come save her. How did Sasuke even know that she wanted kids? The last time they had talked about it she had told him that she wasn't sure. Maybe he had just heard about what had happened the other day in the hospital. Spotting her husband, her look turned pleading.
Kiba, who was the one facing Sakura at the time, gave Gaara a loud cough. He gestured with his head for the redhead to turn around. The Kazekage glanced back, having to mentally stop his sand from ripping that filth off his beautiful bride. He stalked over, doing his best not to make a scene, but then again considering who he was, making a scene was expected.
Placing a painful grip on the Uchiha's shoulder, Gaara ripped them apart, his glare far from friendly, "Uchiha, why are you touching my bride?"
Grabbing Gaara's hand, Sasuke took it off his shoulder. "Calm down Sabaku, we were just having a friendly chat. Besides, Sakura can take care of herself. At least, that's what I've always believed." Sasuke said, glaring back at the redhead.
The redhead laughed darkly, "Oh Uchiha, if anything you did were friendly I wouldn't have to worry about it." He retorted with a smirk.
Not wanting things to escalate further, Sakura placed her hand on Gaara's shoulder. "It's almost time to cut the cake dear. We should head over there." She said, giving him a meaningful look. The last thing she wanted was a full blown fight at her wedding. Naruto had already done enough to embarrass her.
"Of course," he faced her, placing his hand on the small of her back and leading her away. But not without flashing the angry Uchiha a victorious grin. They stopped in front of the large cake, as Ino got the attention of the whole room.
"Everyone! It's time for the cutting of the cake!" the blonde yelled, quieting the room effectively.
"Cake? I love cake!" Naruto yelled, running over to the large dessert.
"You can't have any yet you baka! Not until Gaara and Sakura feed each other the first two bites!" Ino shouted angrily, pummeling the blonde man into the floor.
Rolling her eyes at her friend's antics, Sakura grabbed a knife and fork and cut two small pieces. She'd had to handle the cake details on her own while Gaara was unconscious in the hospital, but she knew he would like it, because she'd made sure not to make it too sweet. Placing a bit of the vanilla cake on her fork, she waited for Gaara to do the same. When they were both ready, they linked arms and fed each other the bites. But Sakura just couldn't help herself, so with a mischievous look in her eyes, she angled her fork in a way that made it so a little bit of the white frosting got on Gaara's nose.
He blinked and eyed her suspiciously, "You better get it off, or I might have to start another food fight." He smiled, trying his best not to laugh. Sakura let out a small giggle and leaned forward, kissing the frosting from his nose. Everyone clapped, a few sounds of appreciation following.
Once she pulled away, he leaned forward quickly and stole a kiss, enjoying every minute of this day. When they broke apart everyone continued dancing. About an hour later they opened their wedding presents, and after thanking the right people, had them all boxed up and sent to the house.
Only one thing was left to do before the couple could leave. Sakura had to throw her bouquet into a crowd of screaming girls. She got up on stage, and, grinning at the crowd of women surrounding her, tossed it into the air. And who should catch it but the quiet Hinata Hyuuga.
"That's not fair! She was already proposed to!" a woman yelled, pointing a finger at the blushing girl.
Sakura stomped her foot hard enough to shake the stage, hands on her hips. "That only means that it is meant to be. If you want some flowers that badly, take one of the decorations off one of the tables. I don't care, I'm ready to go home and take advantage of my husband." She said, causing the girl to blush in embarrassment and others to laugh.
She left the stage and grabbed the hand of her smirking husband. Looking up at him, she raised a brow. "What? It's true."
"Nothing, nothing." He shook his head. "But we still have one last thing to do before we can leave." He informed her. She blinked, a bit confused, when he led her back to the stage. All the guys cheered, and it was their turn to crowd around. Without informing his lovely wife, Gaara hiked Sakura's leg up, pulling her dress up daringly.
"That's right Gaara! Show her whose boss!" Kiba yelled from the crowd.
The redhead laughed, looking up at Sakura's beet red face. Finally he stopped when the blue garter came into view. Slowly he pulled it off, letting her leg back down. Without even looking to the crowd, he shot it into the mass. It was much more violent than the bouquet tossing, but it only made it funnier. Two hands grabbed the scandalous item, and Kiba growled threateningly at the dark haired Uchiha. It began to stretch with their tug of war, until Kiba punched Sasuke right in the jaw. Instantly the dark haired man released it and fell to the ground. Everyone went silent, wide eyed. Until a loud laughter broke out from the stage.
Gaara was holding his sides, trying to control his outburst. The brunette gave the groom a thumbs up, and surprisingly he returned it. Everyone else started laughing as well, applauding now, since it was a well-deserved punch.
Finally Gaara took Sakura and pulled her against him. They both waved, and then disappeared in an exit only the sand master could perform.
Kiba sauntered over towards his sexy companion, tossing the garter to her. She caught it reflexively and blinked, holding it up and giving him a quizzical look. "You know what that means." He smirked, bringing Ino against him. She blushed a light pink, but couldn't get a word in before he kissed her.
When they appeared in their room, Sakura began to walk towards the bathroom. Turning back to her new husband, she said, "I'm going to get out of this dress. I'll only be a few moments." And then shut the door, not waiting for a reply.
She unzipped the dress and laid it carefully across the chair in the corner of the bathroom. Then she took off all of her jewelry, except for her wedding and engagement rings. She reached up and took down her bun, shaking her hair out. It was somewhat curly, but it would do. Gaara didn't care about what her hair looked like anyways.
She reached into a small bag that had been hidden in the back of one of the cabinets. She pulled out the red negligee that Ino had given her for her birthday, and put it on. Looking at herself in the mirror, she tilted her head to the side in contemplation. I didn't look bad, but she wasn't sure if it looked good.
It was made of a thin red lace, which had a floral pattern sewn into it. The top was a halter, with an open back, and the bottom ended right below her butt. It also came with a matching pair of v-string underwear.
She brushed her teeth, and made sure that she still smelled nice. Pleased with the results, she continued to stand there and stare at herself in the mirror. She was nervous. Really nervous. It wasn't like they had never gotten close to this before, but those moments were all spontaneous. This one was actually planned. Expected. What if she wasn't good at it? What if Gaara found her lacking?
She shook her head. No, Gaara told her all the time that she was beautiful. This would be no different. She would just have to quit being shy and get over it. It was Gaara's first time too, so it would only make sense that he was nervous as well.
These thoughts steeled her resolve, so before she changed her mind, she opened the bathroom door and walked into the bedroom.
Gaara's attention shifted from the silk sheets to the doorway, and it was obvious that he was in awe, because his jaw dropped. He was shirtless, propping himself up in bed with his elbow as if he were waiting for her.
She stopped at the end of the bed and began to fidget with the hem of her dress nervously. Did it really look that bad?
He blinked, regaining his state of mind. "What's wrong?" he asked, looking a bit worried. She wasn't having second thoughts was she? Gaara got up from their bed and walked towards her, only in his black boxers. He touched her shoulders tenderly and kissed her cheek. "If you're too nervous Sakura we don't have to do anything." He gave her a comforting smile. "But you know…we will have to eventually. I'd love to make beautiful babies with you." He said, trying to lighten the mood.
She smiled tentatively. "It's not that…do you…you don't think this thing is a bit much?" she asked, gesturing to her outfit. "Because I can go put that black one from last night back on…" she said, beginning to turn back towards the bathroom.
He grabbed her wrist, stopping her in her place. "Sakura…you look sexy. It looks amazing on you, now get in bed and show me why you're the best." He smirked, dragging her back to the place where they would consummate their love. He sat down on the edge, pulling her so she was standing between his spread legs.
She cupped his face and tilted it upwards, leaning down and kissing him softly on the mouth. When he responded, she placed her knee between his and pushed him back onto the mattress. Once he was flat on his back, she straddled his waist. Moving her fingers into his hair, she repositioned his head in order to deepen the kiss. Pulling away breathlessly, she smiled down at him. "You have to show me why you're the best too you know. I can't do all the work." She said, teasing him.
He laughed, letting his hands rest on her hips. "Have I ever laid back and let you torture me? There's no way I would let you have all the fun my love." He pressed her lower half against his so she could feel his need for her.
She gasped and turned red at the feeling of his arousal. Lying down on top of him, she slowly brought her hands down the sides of his neck until they were resting on his chest. She brought her head next to his and nipped his earlobe. Then she began to trail kisses down the left side of his neck, biting lightly every so often. Reaching the spot here his neck met his shoulder, she bit him hard, causing him to gasp softly. She quickly brought her tongue out to sooth the wound, being sure that she would leave a mark.
His hands moved from her hips and slowly to her back. He could barely contain the animal within. He wanted her, more than he ever had before. She was his now, he could do anything he wanted with her and her body. He smirked, his hands feeling her smooth back that arched from his touch. The fabric needed to be gone, he wanted nothing more than to feel Sakura's naked flesh against his own. Grabbing onto the thin sheer, he began pulling it up.
Sensing that he wanted her dress gone, she aided in its removal, being left only in her tiny underwear. Once it was on the floor she resumed her ministrations, moving lower so that she was now lavishing his chest with kisses.
Gaara took in a sharp breath, feeling his heart begin to race. As she moved further down, he let his hands run through her gorgeous pink locks. It was almost hard to imagine that this time he would finally have all of Sakura.
She left another love mark over his heart, and then continued her path down his hard stomach. She paused when she reached the edge of his boxers. Feeling bold, she snaked her fingers underneath the hem. She yanked them down, and pulled them off his legs. Once that was taken care of, she repositioned herself over him, grinding as she did so. Now all that was between them was her thin, skimpy underwear.
He locked gazes with her, grabbing the sultry panties she was wearing. In one fluid movement they were down to her knees. He was done letting her play. It was time to show her the king that she married. He grabbed her hips once more and rolled her off, taking his place on top. "Enough playful teasing," he told her, grabbing the underwear and tossing them off.
She smiled up at him. "So you're done laying back and letting me torture you?" she asked, raising a delicate brow at him.
"Done. I want you…now." He leaned down, taking her lips with his. He was going to conquer the only part of her he hadn't yet. He placed his hands on either side of her head, positioning himself in front of her entrance. His cocky expression disappeared, and he seemed hesitant.
She nodded in reassurance. She knew it would hurt in the beginning, but if it got to be too unbearable, she could always heal it later. "It's ok Gaara. I'm ready." She said, preparing for what was about to happen.
Accepting her words, he pushed forward, finalizing their joining and watching her face the whole time. He didn't want to hurt her, but he at least knew the basics of this process. He could see the pain she was trying to hide, but continued until he was completely inside her. He wanted her pain to be over as fast as possible.
They stayed like that for a while, letting Sakura adjust to having something inside her most private area. It didn't hurt too badly, and after a while, the pain began to leave her. She rotated her hips experimentally, gasping at the wonderful sensation following the motion. She moved them again, groaning this time.
A small smirk came back across his features, now that she was ready on her own he was ready to show her just how good it could feel to be one. Still at a slow pace, he pulled back, experimenting with what made her feel the best. Once he was close to removing himself, he thrust back in, getting a loud pleasured moan from his lover. It didn't take long for him to pick up the pace, his own eagerness replacing his thought process.
She wrapped her legs around his waist, bringing him deeper within her. Overwhelmed by what she was feeling her hands moved from clutching his biceps, to raking them down his back, leaving red marks wherever they went.
Her rough behavior seemed to awaken something deep inside him. He gripped the sheets tightly, their speed increasing. By now he was emitting his own sounds, the feeling was all his mind could comprehend. He was really glad he no longer housed the Shukaku, because this activity with the demon raccoon could have ended badly.
His change of pace had her screaming his name in pleasure. The fire in her belly was increasing, and at any moment, she felt like she was going to explode. He could feel it too, something hot building in his abdomen. With one final thrust and a shrill pleasured cry, both of them released, beginning one of the greatest adventures of their lives.
