A/N: I'm sorry once again, I know I messed up some of the time line with what I wrote but I needed to. If I added everything else then it wouldn't be so interesting. I hope you all wont mind this and I hope you all still love, or like this story!

P.S. I think from now I will be deviating a bit from the original story line. It is centered on Lee after all, plus other reasons.

P.P.S In the flash backs, it has only been a few months. I usually state the time each time I write in a flash back so if you are confused about it, just look. It's usually in the first or second paragraph.

Another note! Did anyone notice the new cover!? KakaIru made it for this story! I squealed so hard when I saw it! She is one of the most AWESOMELY WONDERFUL people I know!

Disclaimer: Is Lee getting chased by Seme's that want him as their Uke? No? Then I don't own Naruto.


Title: Save your Sorrow


Lee sighed as he sat on the ground outside the building they were supposed to get to. He, of course, could not follow Gaara into the building. Not that he wanted to, no he certainly did not! And he wouldn't let himself think otherwise!

Yet still, his black eyes would stray to the doors and he would feel his heart yearn for Gaara's presence again.

'No! I should not be acting this way anymore! I have lived years without him! I do NOT need him!' Lee hit the dirt, causing the ground to crack slightly.

"I do NOT need him!" Lee whispered fiercely and stood up.

He nodded to himself and walked towards the wall of the building. He would have to wait for his team as he was the one with the scrolls. It was a good thing that they had agreed to meet here if they got separated. Lee sighed and decided to do a light work out while waiting.

Hours later

Lee breathed out steadily, trying not to shake as he kept his body completely parallel. He was balancing his body on four of his knuckles. He heard a noise come from the forest surrounding him and spared one glance. He made a happy noise as he saw Neji and Tenten and slowly got to his feet, not wanting blood to rush. He did that once, never again...

"My friends! You are here!" Lee said excitedly

"Lee!" Tenten exclaimed, running over to him. She looked him over quickly then hit him harshly, "You had me worrying, you ass!"

Lee winced, holding his head as it throbbed slightly. Still he smiled as he said, "My apologies, Tenten. I did not mean to cause you worry."

"What the hell happened!" Tenten asked, narrowing her gaze at Lee.

Neji walked to the two calmly. He looked at Lee subtly, checking to see if there were any injuries. He nodded minutely as he saw none then turned his attention to the conversation. He was curious as well and not just a little angry at the fact Lee was taken so abruptly.

"Uh..." Lee looked down, shifting, feeling guilty, and fibbed just a little, "An...old friend wanted to speak with me. So he transported me. That is all."

Neji's eyes narrowed, "Is this the same 'friend' that I saw you sitting next to in the exam room?"

Lee jerked slightly, his eyes flying up to Neji's gaze and had to force himself not to look away again. He did not say anything, not wanting Neji to be able to guess anything else. even though Lee did not confirm his suspicions, Neji continued.

"I do not like the way he looks at you. Stay away from him."

"Huh?" Tenten cut in, "What do you mean Neji?" she looked at Neji then Lee, then back to Neji. Her eyebrows furrowed as something seemed to pass between them. She frowned at them both as they stayed silent then sighed.

"Alright! Let's just get inside." She shoved her thumb towards the building.

"Yes! Wonderful idea!" Lee immediately said, turning and running towards the door.

Neji growled slightly but followed anyway as did Tenten.

They open the scroll in the room and Gai emerged from the smoke. Gai congratulated them and told them that the exam was far from over. After the talk, they were taken to a waiting area. They had two more days to wait before the teams that were still out in the forest were disqualified.

Lee held back a yawn, feeling tired. His body was telling him that it was strained from opening the first gate earlier. Still, he smiled and sat down on the couch in the room. He looked at Tenten who sat on the arm of the couch then Neji, who was leaning against the wall. The room was plain, just one large couch in the room. Lee smiled a little bit bigger then closed his eyes, leaning back against the couch.

Only a few minutes passed before Tenten began talking, "So what's the plan?"

"We wait and recoup." Neji said swiftly as Lee opened his eyes lazily.

"Yea but what about the next test?" Tenten asked

"We don't know what the next test will be, but I know it will be fighting. So we will decide when they tell us. Use these days to rest, for now. That is the best option."

Lee nodded, agreeing with Neji. He couldn't help it, but his 'youthfulness' wasn't a full capacity right now. In fact, he thought that a nap sounded nice. He closed his eyes again and only had a few minutes of quiet before the door suddenly opened.

Lee didn't open his eyes until he heard Neji growl out, "What are you doing here."

Lee looked in confusion then chocked on a gasp, his eyes widening. Gaara stood in the doorway, staring straight at Lee. Lee felt himself blush and quickly looked away.

"Lee..." Gaara's voice echoed in Lee's ears, "Come." he commanded.

Lee flinched, his mind screaming at him to not obey even as his body tensed and ached to stand and follow. He clenched the fabric of the couch and opened his mouth his mouth to deny when Neji spoke instead

"He isn't going anywhere." Neji took a few steps until he was blocking Lee from Gaara's sight. He glared at the red head then twitched as he noticed that Gaara wasn't even paying the slightest attention to him, like he was no threat at all.

"Lee." Gaara growled, sand hissing in the gourd on his back.

Lee shivered hard, his heart skipping in his chest. The commanding tone made him ache sharply and for a moment, he wondered how deranged he really was, to find excitement in that. Yet still, Lee could not allow himself to do this anymore.

"No." Lee quickly said, "I am staying here, with my team. This is where I belong."

Lee nodded to himself, as if to confirm it, and glanced up to Gaara. His breath caught in his throat as Gaara's eyes darkened in fury. The burning color making Lee press himself hard into the couch, even as his scar began to throb.

Gaara's lips pulled back in a snarl and he stalked towards Lee. He gripped the front of Lee's spandex, yanking him up and close to himself. Gaara glared down into Lee's eyes and said

"You will not deny me! You are mine!" Gaara smashed his lips against Lee's claiming his mouth in front of the Konoha ninja's.

Lee squeaked and pushed his hands against Gaara's chest only to feel Gaara wrap his arm tightly around his waist, digging blunt nails into his hips, and plunge his tongue into his mouth. Lee couldn't stop a moan from leaving him as Gaara shoved a hand into his hair, yanking his head back to gain leverage to map his mouth completely. Gaara's rough treatment of his body made Lee shudder in pleasure and he found himself pulling Gaara closer instead.

"Oh my god!" Tenten exclaimed in shock. She stared wide eyed at the kissing couple, hardly believing what she was seeing. She could only continue staring, her mind blank and her mouth open in a 'o' shape.

Neji choked slightly then growled, he took a step forward to tear Gaara off of Lee when sand blasted him back. He hit the wall with a grunt and struggled not to fall. He pushed himself off the wall, glaring furiously at the Sand-nin.

Gaara turned his eyes to Neji, finally pulling his mouth away from Lee's. He felt Lee rest his head on his chest and felt the harsh pants leaving his lips. He grinned, his cold eyes glittering with triumph. Gaara gripped Lee tighter, showing the Konoha ninja's that Lee was his.

"You will stay away from Lee." Gaara ordered Neji, "He is mine, and you will never have him."

With that last word, sand hissed around Lee and Gaara, engulfing them before falling, revealing no one to be standing there anymore. Neji and Tenten stared at the empty spot before Neji suddenly choked. That sand...

"He was the one that took Lee, before." Neji said, anger burning within him. When Lee was pulled into the ground...Gaara was the one that had taken him, he knew it! Neji's hands clenched in anger, Gaara was going to pay for that, he would make sure of it!

Gaara and Lee appeared in an empty waiting room, far from Lee's team mates.

Lee pulled away from Gaara, coughing as some sand had sneaked its way into his mouth. He backed away from Gaara quickly, angered. He felt angry at Gaara, at this exam, but mostly at himself. What had he been doing! Falling to Gaara's kiss again...it was shameful! Did he really have such a weak will?!

"You are staying with me now." Gaara's voice interrupted Lee's thoughts

"What?" Lee said, his eyebrow's furrowing, feeling confused.

"You are coming back with me. You will live in my lodging while I'm in Konoha, and when this exam is over, you are coming back to Suna."

"W-what?! I can not! Konoha is my home!"

"I will not be without you again. You are mine, my property, and that is final." Gaara's voice was calm, low toned the entire time.

"I am not something to be owned Gaara-kun!" Lee shouted, even as his body shook. He was a human being damnit! He was allowed to do as he wished, not bow to others whims!

"Lee, Lee, Lee..." Gaara sighed, still sounding mono-toned but his voice taking on an even rougher tone.

The repetition of his name made Lee tremble and stumble backwards until his back hit the wall. His throat constricted as Gaara walked-no, stalked towards him. This was familiar, he had been in this position so many times when living with Gaara but...each time seemed to get a little more dangerous.

"Don't you understand...?" Gaara suddenly growled darkly. He raised his arms slowly, trapping Lee against the wall as he placed his hands on either side of Lee's head. He leaned in close, so close that his hot breath rushed against Lee's lips and his eyes stared deep into Lee's reflective orbs. Then he snapped.

"You belong to me, to us! I have the key to your cage and you will never leave us!" Gaara's eyes flashed gold and Lee dug his nails into the wall in what he just hoped was fear. His heart pounded in his ears, screaming at him, and he did the only thing he could think to do.

Lee ran.
