Gaara
"Ok, I have to go to work." I said, placing the pancakes on Naruto's plate.
"Aren't you gonna eat?" Naruto asked. I already gave Jiraiya his.
My phone vibrated in my pocket. 'You're late' it read. Deidara.
"No, he's texting me I'm late..." I pouted. Naruto read the text over my shoulder. 'Maybe I wouldn't be late if people stopped texting me the obvious' was my reply.
"There's a sure way to get fired." Naruto said, cutting up his pancake.
"Deidara wouldn't fire me... he owes me... remember." I winked, as I rushed to the bathroom to go real quick.
"I thought you got him back?" Naruto called.
"Nothing will ever equal what he owes me." I walked to naruto and kissed him passionately before I left. I saw Jiraiya make a small gagging noise but I didn't care. He didn't have to deal with me again until 4 o'clock.
"Bye, love you!" I called.
"Love you too!" Naruto shouted as I shut the door behind me. I rushed to my car, and pulled through burger king to grab some breakfast.
"Hey latey." Deidara said. He was holding hands with the red head demon I knew just a bit too well.
"Hey Deidara... Sasori."
"You know Sasori?" Deidara asked just a bit confused. Probably forgot that I recommended him.
"Eh, we have a past." yeah I helped him escape from my father's detection. He is wanted by the council for killing humans and to my knowledge a few Anthro's. All I know is that Itachi brought him and a few others on a killing spree of…I don't know. One of the two species. But even before that, Sasori wasn't bad, he was just too rough for some people and sometimes broke them. Even so I played it off and let Deidara think I meant past as in sexual life.
"You two... you... what?" he freaked.
"Later Dei-Dei." Sasori glared at me knowing I just set him up to lie. He didn't want Deidara to know he was a demon. I just smirked.
"Sasori, want a tattoo."
"Depends." he said. Just like Sasori, never gives you a straight answer.
"I can do Pinocchio... his nose can be your dick, and it will grow every time you lie."
"It wouldn't grow when I lie, but it'll grow."
"Are you serious?"
"No I wouldn't let you near my dick... again." he threw in turning a bit to Deidara knowing he was lying.
"Ok, no, none of this." Deidara said meaning our talk of sex.
"Just be careful Deidara, he's a demon if he gets you tied up." I warned and he and I snickered at my choice of words. After a few hours of bickering and me giving a few people tattoo's (everyone was off for break so there was more in for piercings and tattoos) I began to wonder about naruto. I texted him.
"So did you and your uncle find something to do? Didn't kill each other I hope." I texted him.

Naruto
I sat a bit awkward at the table with my uncle. I was eating my food happily because I love Gaara's cooking but Jiraiya was poking at it with his fork, like it was poisoned or he wasn't hungry.
Then I remembered what happened the night before and I lightly blushed.
"U-Um uncle...about last night I-"
"I don't want to hear about your sex life." He grunted then finally took an item of food as if saying he was too busy to have the conversation.
"But that's the thing! I'm still a virgin he was just dressing me in pj's because my head was killing me..." Which now since I thought about it I'm starting to get a slight head ache again.
"So you're going to tell me that you haven't done ANYTHING sexual with that...demon." I blushed even more. Should I tell him? I don't want to lie but...it's sort of inappropriate conversation and what would he do if he did find out that we have gone to hand jobs and blow jobs...well Gaara's done bj's but...doesn't this sound weird me saying this stuff in the first place?
"I'm taking the silence as a yes." My uncle stared me down causing me to blush more.
"U-Um Jiraiya...let's go out or something okay?" I said trying to change the subject.
"And where would u want to go kit? To go see your demon at his work, or to a strip club or-"
"Really...please stop saying bad things about Gaara and I will not go to a strip club with you again. You pervert I was, what, 10 when you snuck me in. Maybe that's the reason I'm gay Jiraiya. You probably scarred me." I said truthfully. Seriously no one wants to see that much flesh just jumping around. So I would suspect that to have scarred me let alone all the girls used to hate me.
"There's nothing wrong with women naruto."
"There is when there degrading themselves for money plus...it's bad for you since you stalk them until you go to jail."
"One time Naruto one time!" He yelled and I giggled.
"What did your 'research' get you that time?"
"Okay! So where are we going Naruto." my uncle tried changing the subject.
"Um...I don't know lets go to the park." I smiled and Jiraiya sighed remembering how I always like the park.
"Fine..."
I left to go get dressed in clothes. Without thinking I put on some skinny jeans and a long sleeved blue shirt and made it to the kitchen right when I got there my phone vibrated and I smiled at the text.
"Yeah we are going to the park! And we didn't kill each other. Just got in a fight about strip clubs and if they're safe to take 10 year old boys into." I smiled at the text and sent it knowing Gaara probably would have no clue what I was talking about.
Jiraiya finally made it out to the kitchen and I slipped on my orange jacket. He looked at my head and tail.
"Why aren't you covered up?" he asked questionably.
"W-Well...there are a lot of people that already know what I am so there's no point in hiding anymore."
"And you still go to school?" he asked and I nodded.
"Come on..." I said and walked with my uncle to the park

Gaara
"That's good have fun. Text me if you want. Sai is off and Deidara is occupying himself in the next room. If they don't keep down, they might scare away my next customer." I texted naruto.
"Gaara! Stop texting and get to work!" Deidara shouted. "oh god right there!" he screamed.
"Sasori, man can you put a gag on him or something? He's scaring people away!" I shouted.
"Gaara shut up and get to work yo-" I snickered at the sound of grunting, some protests on Deidara's end and finally silence.
Work was boring; around closing time I knocked on the door.
"Now, I know better than to go in, but I'm gonna clean up and leave ok?"
"Sure." Sasori said.
"Deidara alive in there?"
"He heard you."
"Don't hurt him Sasori."
"He's asleep, ok just get out." Sasori said. I got scared. I closed my eyes, worried for Deidara. This is how Sasori became wanted by the council in the first place.
"Sasori, is he hurt? You better not have hurt him. Come on open the door..."
the door opened and I shut my eyes trying to get the image of a naked tied up Deidara out of my head.
"You couldn't just accept the lie." he stated.
"Don't leave him like that all night. I have to work for him in the morning..."
"No you should have tomorrow off."
"Oh right. I have to start the food... lovely." I waved bye as I walked out to my car, texting naruto to see where he was.

Naruto
I wanted to go run through the leaves that had fallen to the ground but didn't want to leave my uncle. For a few reasons really.
One because he's my uncle and I didn't just want to run around and leave him behind and two...if I left him he would go stalk any girls, anthro or no.
We walked around for a bit without talking until we made quick conversation of different topics causing us to both not be completely bored.
I talked about school and about my friends I had made. He seemed to not believe me that I had made friends but I shrugged it off.
I even mentioned Tsunade because he had asked who she was because Gaara had mentioned she was his aunt.
"And she's really nice..." I concluded before I got a text from Gaara.
"Yeah I'm still in the park with Jiraiya." I texted back. In a few minuets Gaara texted back.
"I'll pick you up if you want." I smiled and texted back a quick sure.
"Who was that?" Jiraiya asked rolling his eyes.
"Gaara's going to pick us up..."
"It's that late already?" And I nodded.
"Well we did stop a few times to eat or something..." I said truthfully as I made my way back to the front of the park.
Gaara pulled up to us, sending me a smile and I grinned back. I told my uncle to sit up front even if I knew Gaara didn't want that and that Jiraiya wasn't so keen on the idea either.
"He's a back seat driver so better just give him the front." Gaara sighed and I kissed his cheek, buckling myself up while we went home. Again...I will say this is going to be a looong weekend.

Gaara
The next morning was... for lack of a better word, calm. Or at least, as calm as one could be when 2 anthro's and a demon all share an apartment. I woke up and began to cook the things I could today, like pie. Naruto likes pie, so I let him pick his favorite, which was pumpkin, but I really wanted cheery pie, which reminds me of my mom. She loved cherries (where think my craving comes from) It was one of the few things I remember about her, since I was so young when she left, other than what she looked like, and that was from pictures. We picked up both pies, but I felt bad leaving out Jiraiya so I asked him what pie he would want, which he wanted apple. So I began to make the pies, one after the other, store bought didn't taste as good, and I wanted Jiraiya to be impressed by me. I wanted him to know Naruto was in good hands.
I wiped sweat off my forehead from the heat of the oven, as I began on the dough for the bottom of the last pie. My phone rang; it was on the counter next to me. "Naruto, can you get that?" I asked my hands filthy.
"Yeah one sec, I'm in the bathroom..." my phone rang a few more times, before Jiraiya answered it so it wouldn't hang up before naruto got there.
"Um...hello?" he muttered into my touch phone. There was a voice on the other line, I couldn't figure out who it was. "He's... busy." Jiraiya said. She, it was definitely a girl said something else. "He's in the bathroom, if you'll wait one moment... no he's not... he's cooking ok?..."
"Who is it?" I asked.
"Who is this?"
A mumble from the receiver.
"Tsunade" he said to me. I sighed, my snoopy aunt.
"I got it!" Naruto took the phone from his uncle. "Hello?... Hi Tsunade!" he nearly shouted, a hyperness around him I only see when he's really happy. "No Gaara took good care of me... I'm fine Tsunade really, he was just being a worry wart, and it's only a bump now..." Naruto put his hand on his head to feel the bump as he talked about it. "Wha- no, Gaara's making a big meal. He's cooking pie right now! I was gonna help him after I take a shower..." he said "What are you doing for thanksgiving?... what? That's not fair; you should come eat with us. Gaara's making plenty-"
"Naruto, not Tsunade, we like hate each other, we just don't show it around you-"
"Nonsense, Gaara would love to have you over. You're his aunt after all." Naruto waved his hand at me to shush. I glared at the back of his head, as he continued chatting like he and my aunt where best friends since grade school. Jiraiya seemed a bit cautious for it looked like the first time I was mad. I knew I wasn't going to do anything, but to anyone outside my brain I could see how I could be assumed a threat.
I sighed and went back to my cooking. Placing the dough in the pan, and staring on the apple pie, adding the apples, cinnamon and everything else, then capping it off with the top layer of dough and making the edges look all pretty. I had all day.
Naruto walked back in the room. "Tsunade is coming for dinner tomorrow." Naruto announced.
"I'm not going to bother asking you why, because I wont understand your reasoning, no matter how innocent it is." Naruto just laughed at me.
"Don't be depressed. She's a lovely lady." Naruto stated.
"To you." was all I could say. Tsunade adored Naruto for reasons beyond me. She watched over him because he was out of his place dealing with demons, not that I would ever hurt him purposefully, and not that I wouldn't give my life to protect him, but the fact accidents do happen. Tsunade always took care of me and Kankuro, and occasionally Temari if she ever got hurt, (which was once) but she only helped us because she felt it her duty to as our aunt and as a doctor, but in truth all she sees in us is the demons who took her sister away from her. Tsunade and I never got along perfectly, and all I needed was Jiraiya to see my bad side.
"Gaara... you ok?" Naruto whispered, as if forgetting his uncle can hear us anyway. I was deep in thought and his voice pulled me out of it. I stared at him for a second as my brain processed where I was and what I was doing and what naruto just said to me.
"Yeah... yeah I'm fine, why don't you go shower, then you can help me ok?" I said covering up any doubts he had about him truly upsetting me. It was supposed to be a happy vacation, no need to dwell on the past... right?
"Sure!" he said, running into the bathroom.
"Ok, so why lie to him for one, and letting him within 5 feet of a hot stove is never a good plan..." Jiraiya said to me the moment the shower was on.
"I don't want to upset him. It's a holiday after all, so I guess Tsunade deserves to eat with family to. She blames my dad for the disappearance of my mom. He won't say how or why she left, but he claims it was my fault. I don't remember her at all, except that she liked cherries. Me and my siblings just remind my aunt of her lost sister... I've only ever seen her be nice to naruto... or at least, to the people who I know who I bring to her."
"Is that so?" he said raising his eyes and looking un impressed.
"And Naruto is fine around an oven, he's cautious when he wants to be..." I added.

Naruto
It depends on what you think is a calm shower but for me I like scorching hot. Especially when I was in a rush. I was even more excited about tomorrow now than ever! Tsunade was coming and she's sort of between a mother and my best friend. I just can't help but love her. And don't think I was stupid enough to not hear Gaara's tone of voice. I know that he didn't sound that excited about the idea but I just had to have her come.
If I had Jiraiya here then Gaara should have his aunt here. I just hope my uncle doesn't pull his perverted tricks while she's over...she does have some huge boobs...for lack of the word.
I sighed as I conditioned my hair and then my tail and finished soaping up my body. Quickly finishing then getting out of the shower to hurriedly run to the bedroom and get dressed.
Knowing my clumsiness I knew I would most likely spill something so I dressed in something more oldish. Meaning my clothes before Gaara bought me anything new. After smiling to myself I made my way back into he kitchen feeling the awkward silence AND Gaara's mood-a-meter meaning he was either thinking about his past or I had really upset him on inviting Tsunade. Maybe I really should have asked for his opinion first.
"Gaara...?" I snuck up behind him and whispered into his neck (even if I knew my nosy uncle could hear everything)
"Hm?"
"I'm sorry...I shouldn't of have did that." I whispered.
"Wha- no nothings your fault Naru."
"So you're not mad that I invited Tsunade?" I asked him, questioning him even if he said no.
"No I'm not mad at that...I'm not mad at all." He smiled and turned well enough to kiss my forehead. I grinned back and blushed.
"Naruto. What have I told you about drying your hair?" Gaara and Jiraiya said at the same time causing them to both look at each other shocked and for me to be in the center.
"I- you...um." I laughed a bit nervously and rubbed the back of my head.
"You'll get sick." they both said again and I looked at both of their faces. Priceless, just too good to not laugh at. And so I did. Almost uncontrollably.
"Naruto settle down." Jiraiya hushed me and Gaara said nothing but I think it's because he was scared to.
"S-Sorry uncle!" I laughed and tried to calm down my laughter which I eventfully did.
"So...let's start the pie okay naruto?" The red head said a bit silently and I nodded my head making my way next to Gaara.
I was dirty...not that I really expected anything else. I spilled flour and I missed the bowl when I tried mixing the ingredients for pumpkin pie. I even almost spilled them onto the floor. Me apologizing for every single screw up.
When I had gotten some mix on my cheek Gaara took the incentive to clean it off of me, causing me to blush brightly and lightly push Gaara away.
"N-Not in front of Jiraiya..." I whispered as quietly as I could.
"So you can do it when I'm not here. That's a lovely thought of my nephew being sexually active is it not Naruto?" Jiraiya said sarcastically and all Gaara did was glare at the man but didn't say anything. Just trying to keep my embarrassment gone at least a bit more.

Gaara
"There's a lot of things we can do when you're not around." I said to Jiraiya. Naruto actually elbowed me in the chest. I felt it, it didn't hurt per se, but I could feel he put force behind it.
Jiraiya stared at me, processing the best answer to that.
"Look, uncle, please... just let it go..." naruto looked away shy and embarrassed. Much like when we first met.
"No, Naruto. You're more like my son than my nephew. I've accepted the fact you are gay, so I have to treat you like girl, and fathers are protective of their daughters." Jiraiya tried to explain.
"No you didn't. You hate the fact that I'm gay, don't try to deny it." Naruto nearly shouted, standing close to me as if I gave him the courage to stick up for himself. I felt touched.
"Guy's come on. Jiraiya, we are a couple. Things happen with couples. Naruto is the only one for me, so you don't have to worry about me sleeping around and getting an STD, we'd be safe, and I'd be gentile. Naruto isn't a child; he can decide when he's ready. We haven't done it yet, but when it happens it happens the moment will be right and memorable. Sorry that we act like a couple and that makes you think we do things with each other." I stated.
"But you guys sleep in the same bed?" Jiraiya pointed out.
"Yes sleep is the key word. Besides, I only had one bed and the air mattress, and I really wouldn't want to sleep on an air mattress." I said.
"Wouldn't you put Naruto on the air mattress?" he questioned.
"No. I'd let him have the bed. Besides, I was actually an insomniac before I met him. So I'd probably be up all night watching or reading porn on the internet to pass time... god I hated that but boredom forces you to reach horrible methods." I stated.
"At least he's honest." Jiraiya gave that 'I'm not completely impressed' look.
"What can I do to make you except me as Naruto's boyfriend?" I asked.
"I wish I knew the answer to that... I love you Naru, and... I would hate to lose you... like I lost the rest of our family to... demons. I tried to accept this, for your sake... but every bone in my body, every bone is telling me this is a bad idea... I don't know, maybe it is just... old habits die hard. demons, or at least this one, seems... doable... I'm not going to say he's prince charming and as harmless as a frog, but... he... he seems like he can take care of you. In a way I guess it fits because you're so clumsy and always get yourself into the worst of luck situations. You'd need some abnormally strong to take care of ya... and not someone too brawny either... you'd get crushed. But I guess... as far as men go, not that I judge, he's not ugly... he's your age... he can cook. I haven't had a meal as good as the ones in the last few days since you mother was alive. He's rich, not that I'm shallow... I could care less how much money a chick owns it's only what she looks like"
"Totally not shallow" naruto muttered.
"I heard that, but it's not my point. the only thing that sets me on edge is he's a demon... it just doesn't add up..." he shook his head.
"Honestly, I never thought it would work. People have been... accepting of Naruto, friends wise, because of my short temper at first, but once they get to know him... he has a talent. He can make anyone he meets his friend, as long as they can look past the ears and the tail and give him a chance. My family, well AFTER the mix up with my brother, became excepting, everyone but my dad who I walked out on. My house my rule was his rule, so I moved out. I am in no way incapable of taking care of us. I never needed my dad; I stayed there for well... more money than I had saved up. I love naruto, that's why it adds up. I was able to look past his ears and tail because, he and I are the same. Only I can hide myself better. Demons are looked down upon; even our own kind hates each other! People like my dad who tries to live in peace with humans and the people like the Akatsuki who eat people like an afternoon tea party. We hide ourselves from everybody if we don't know them, but when I saw Naruto and knew what he was, I saw a friend I could trust not to go blabbing off to people I'm a demon because he'd blow his cover too. I scared him off at first; I knew an anthro wouldn't willingly go home with me, so I blackmailed him, using his secret. But the moment I did I felt horrible. I wanted to make it up to him and... I fell in love."

Naruto
I looked between Gaara and Jiraiya but mostly at Gaara. I felt as if I might cry, yes like a girl. Not only because of the conversation in general made me want to cry "happy" tears but because half of the stuff Gaara had said I didn't exactly know. Like how he believes in me is what truly almost broke me. But what's even better is the memory on when we first met. The whole slave thing wasn't the romantic part just how he actually felt during the whole thing is what almost had me. Like I said almost.
What Jiraiya had said probably was the thing that was causing me not to cry from happiness. I mean...I want him to except Gaara, I really do, but his expertness isn't going to change my mind on loving Gaara. Even if he is a perverted guy at times...I'm surrounded by perverts
"J-Jiraiya..." I whispered still slightly choked up on everything my red head has said.
"Hm...Kit?" He said a bit shyly.
"You don't have to worry about Gaara...he's the sweetest thing for me, for anyone, but I really like how he treats me like the number one thing in the whole world. I trust he won't hurt me." I was going to say hurt me again just because of the crap that had happen but I didn't want to ruin the moment, "And...I am slightly starting to believe you except I'm gay every millimeter at a time. But you are slowly getting better."
"I'm just afraid that it will happen again." He admitted and I nodded that I understood.
"I'm with you on that but with Kiba it was different."
"Naruto he made you cry for days and he ruined your life more in the anthro community. I don't want you to get hurt again." Jiraiya sighed remembering the time. I also remembered my depression. After I had found the courage to tell Kiba that I liked him he absolutely rejected me AND he told everyone I was gay, causing me to get twice the beatings from my regular bullies.
"Uncle...you can't hurt what there never was. You know how there wasn't anything in the first place?" He nodded and I continued, "But I love Gaara...and what he said on sex is true...we haven't done it yet and I trust him fully to wait until I'm ready. So please except us. It doesn't have to be now, even if I would really really like that, but later… but hopefully it will be soon."
It got silent and I took a chance to look at Gaara. He was slightly looking at me confused and I bit my lip. Crap...I haven't told him about Kiba yet have I? Not that I was hiding it.
"Fine..." The old man said softly, "I will believe in you kit AND I will try to actually know the dem- Gaara. If it makes you happy. I might not accept it right away but I will try my best. But no more fighting alright? Its thanks giving." Jiraiya said finally and I couldn't help but smile and run and hg my uncle.
"I love you!" I squeezed him and he reluctantly hugged me back. At that moment the oven went off telling us that the pies were done, which really shocked me because through the whole fight slash confession type thing I haven't smelled them baking.

Jiraiya
"This smalls amazing..." Gaara commented, pulling the pies out of the oven.
"Try having my nose..." naruto was behind him shadowing the moments of the pumpkin pie.
He pulled out the cherry. "Let it cool for one, and for two, they are for tomorrow..."
"But Gaara, they taste the best fresh!" Naruto argued giving him puppy eyes."
"Don't do that to me... I'll think about it." he said, to get him to stop with the eyes. "Either way it needs to cool down." he stated.
'You two are ridiculous.' I said to myself. Naruto and Gaara cooked, I watched my nephew like a hawk, getting on edge every time he made mess, thinking the redheaded demon would get pissed off. That didn't happen, he would smile and wipe it up, sometimes cleaning the blonds face with a napkin making my nephew whine and try to struggle away, this once causing more of a mess as they knocked down a bowl and landed on the floor in an eruption of flour. It cleared away like a mushroom cloud.
"You ok Naru?" Gaara asked, in a laughing tone trying to hide the seriousness behind it. I could see it in his eyes though, the fact that Naruto might be hurt, and he was worried. Naru? Hm... Just like his mother used to call him... how I miss her.
Giggling came from the ground. "It looks like snow!" Naruto shouted, making a snow angel in the flower.
Gaara's smile was one of relief as Naruto lay giggling uncontrollably on the ground.
"What?" he asked.
"You have a beard." Naruto sounded like a 5 year old as he said that, only then did I notice the boy had a white powdered beard, resembling a five o'clock shadow. It looked ridiculous. I let out a deep throaty laugh, sounding more like I was dying as I tried to hold it in. "even Jiraiya thinks it's funny, and nothing makes him smile but boobies." Naruto rolled his eyes.
"Hey! Vagina's too." I defended myself.
The rest of the day carried on much in the same way, Naruto and Gaara having the time of their lives over a boring task like cooking, and me sitting back and speculating every move he made. Not one seemed hostile, he was calm and almost... it was hard to explain. Ever hear of opposites attract? Everything Naruto did, Gaara did sort of the opposite, so nothing conflicted. Gaara did all the boring stuff, with precision and grace, while Naruto took all the fun stuff and made a bloody mess. Naruto was ashamed of his mess while Gaara just laughed and cleaned it up, while naruto snuck tastes at the food while the other was busy. Then Gaara would catch him, and Naruto would give those pretty blue puppy dog look, and Gaara would continue cooking, while Naruto made a another mess.
"Ok you two, I'm going in the shower." I said. I didn't see any danger of him being with Gaara, so why was I so against it?
"It's going to take him a loooong time. He takes forever in the showers." Naruto whispered, forgetting I could hear him.
I am definitely afraid of losing Naruto. But Gaara doesn't seem to be a threat. Am I afraid of Naruto abandoning me? I was the one who disowned him in the first place, not that I meant it, I was mad. He took me seriously, the apartment bill was canceled, he didn't go to school... for a while I believed he was dead. God I would hate to feel that ever again.
I could hear them cleaning up, not taking a shower but a relaxing bath, so the water didn't hinder my hearing at all. After they were done cleaning up, I was wishing I couldn't hear them... what were they doing in the next room? The kissing noises were faint but I was straining to hear if they were doing anything else.
"Naru, I love you." another kiss.
"You know I love you too!" he said. I haven't heard Naruto as happy as he was today since his parents were murdered.
"Will you tell me something? You don't have too, after my mix up with Deidara I don't care what you do as long as I don't ever have to put you through that again, but... who's Kiba? I thought you didn't have any relationships before me? Not that I care. I'm just... curious." The way he asked was so... weird as if he chose his words as to not have any misunderstands... did he think Naruto was stupid? He is such a bright kid... and who's Deidara? And put Naruto through what?
"No he was... my best friend. I had a crush on him... when I told him I liked him he..." Naruto's voice broke.
"He wasn't gay." Gaara sounded understanding.
"My own village hated me. That's why Jiraiya sent me away, so I wasn't bullied anymore. Well I guess that could be one reason because… sure it didn't bother him I was gay, his reputation wasn't ruined until everyone ELSE knew I was gay. I can't blame him though." Naruto said. It broke my heart... but why couldn't he blame me? He had every right...
"Why not?"
"Because by sending me here, he led me to you. I'd rather have gotten beat up a zillion times than to have never met you."
It was quiet for a moment.
"Naruto..." Gaara said. He sounded weird. What was it? "I would do anything to make sure you never have to get beat up... I would give my own life to stop you from being in pain." Gaara said.
"I wouldn't want that. This life isn't worth much without someone to share it with. I wouldn't want to live without you."
"What are we going to do then? When you go to heaven, and I go to hell?" Gaara chuckled.
"I don't know. Maybe god will forgive you. Or maybe, I could do something bad, and get stuck in hell with you." Naruto joked.
"Naruto doing something bad..." Gaara said teasingly "kinky" he said.
"Shhh, he can hear us..."
"Huh?"
"The shower isn't on." Naruto said worried. "Do you think he drowned?"
"I think he's just in bath. You sure he can hear us?"
"I don't know..."
"Cause I'm sure he would have said something during our make out session if he could"
"Maybe you're right..." naruto said.
"Why does he hate me?" Gaara said.
"He doesn't hate you... he just can't accept me with you... he hates the fact you're a demon."
"I don't want to be. My kind suck... I mean really." he stated.
"You're not all bad... you siblings are good."
"It could be the fact we have part human in us... but we all come out with problems... like anger management..."
"You don't get angry with me... ever." Naruto stated. So you noticed it too huh kit?
"It weird... you mellow me out... like... one of those squeeze balls to relieve stress... you're like a stress force field. Everything about you just makes me calm..."
"Ok... I'm tired." Naruto said after a yawn.
"Night. I love you."
"Love you more Gaara... night."
I slowly got out of the bath and began to change. I blow-dried my hair and got into my pj's. 20 minutes later, as I passed their door it was open. I looked in to see my Naruto sleeping with a smile on his lips, looking peaceful, wrapped in the arms of the demon, who had the same look of complete peace on his face. It was... adorable. Naruto was happy... I knew my nephew... anything he was the least bit scared of, he'd have night mares. But that look on his face was one of a deep all night no dream sleep. Maybe Gaara was a good thing for him after all.
