I do not own any character, settings, items, etc from the anime/manga, Naruto! I do own Abby and Sarah, other original characters, and anything else that I came up with. Please enjoy and review :)

"Ah, Gaara!" Temari called for him, stepping out of the bedroom door. "I remembered that I'm supposed to go to Konoha. Should we reschedule, because of this occurrence?"

Gaara thought for a moment before saying, "No. It will be fine. Go. I shall get Matsuri to guard Abby for the night."

I was about to protest, but decided to stay silent. It was easy for anyone to notice that Matsuri likes Gaara, well, maybe except for said red head.

After Temari said sorry, and left to get Masturi and get ready for Konoha, I was along with Gaara.

"Are you ok with it?" Gaara asked out of the blue a couple moments later.

"With Matsuri? Yah, why wouldn't I be?" I asked with a smile.

"Because, I can tell when your uncomfortable with something." He came over and cupped my chin with his fingers. He brushed his thumb over my lower lip, and took a step forward, causing me to go backwards. This repeated until I bumped into something, and fell. I fell onto my bed, with Gaara on top. By now, i was blushing madly, and Gaara looked proud of his accomplishment.

He managed to wrap his arms around me in a hug, and burried his face into my neck

"Gaara?" I asked, trying to look at him from the corner of my eye

"Hmmm?" He asked

"You know that Maturi likes you, right?"

"Yes." He mumbled.

My heart skipped a beat. He wasn't gonna leave me right? I mean, not after all the shit we were already through...Right?

Gaara picked his head up, looked me straight in the eye, and bent down. Our lips pressed together softly, and he moved his head from one side to another, rubbing our lips together. Our lips parted, and re-parted over and over. He broke and paused while looking at me. I lifted my head a little off of the bed, as I raised my hands and brought them to his cheeks, leading him back down to my lips.

I breathed in sharply as I felt Gaara trail his tongue over my lower lip, asking for entrance. I opened my mouth slightly letting him slip his tongue in. I laid there, as Gaara explored my mouth with his tongue. It felt so good, that I lifted my body a little off the bed, and pressed it against Gaara's. He pushed his body against mine forcefully down onto the bed, and rested his elbows there as well. He lifted my head up with his hands, making our lips press harder against each other , so he could have full access to my mouth. This time, I let my tongue play a part in it to. Our tongues twisted and slid against each other with moans, but stopped when Gaara twitched, and moved away from my mouth. He looked at me, who was panting and blushing, a few seconds before twisting his head towards the door.

He seemed reluctant, but moved off of me and stood on the floor. He grabbed my hand, and pulled me onto my own two feet. I rubbed my arm sleeve across my mouth, to wipe any spit. Gaara caught both of my hands in his, and moved towards me.

"I love you, and I would never leave you for Matsuri." He whispered in my ear, as if he could have read my mind. He moved away with a slight smile, and as if on cue there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Gaara answered, his breathing still a little irregular.

"Konbanwa (Good Evening) Gaara-Kazekage-sama." Matsuri came in and bowed.

"Matsuri. Temari gave you the details correct?"

"Hai."

"Good. All you have to do is watch her for tonight, all night."

"Hai! I shall do my best." She responded loyaly, and seemed uncomfortable when Gaara pecked me on the lips, and whispered goodnight to me in my ear. She gave him a forced smile, when he patted her shoulder as he went by, and then pouted when he was out the door.

"A-ano...Konbanwa." I said nervously

"Aa." She responded with a smile, that I couldn't tell was forced or not. "You can go to sleep." She told me

"I know." I jumped on my bed, and sat criss-crossed, looking at her. "Not that tired right now." I responded

"I see." She said, sitting on the floor.

"Soooo-" I started but was shhh-ed. She put her ear against the door, as voices could be heard outside, but they quickly past.

"Ok, as you were saying." she prompted

"Umm...Nothing."

"Oh, ok."

"..."

She kept looking at me, and away, as if she couldn't stand to bear not telling or asking me something.

She finally got it out, but it was a topic I wasn't so keen on talking about with her...Or maybe I was.

"How did you get Gaara to like you?" She blurted out

"Eh? Oh, um...I don't know really." I gave a calculating look, "I liked him, he liked me, there was some misunderstandings, and then it all fell into place...Of course, there were some more misunderstandings, but it's all perfect right now." I smiled

"Oh...We're you the one who asked him out?"

"Nope. It was Gaara." I smiled again, at the memories, since he asked me out twice.

"Ehhh." she seemed a little surprised. Then held a hint of disgust, "I still don't see why he picked you." She realized what she said, but still wanted to hold her ground, "Don't get me wrong or anything, but...You just don't seem like his type?"

"Pfft. His type?"

"Well, yah. I mean, Gaara's the strong, cool, silent type. Your, well...Inexperienced, hyper, loud, and everything."

"Ever heard of opposites attract?"

"Of course. But, it's not like you see a high class person going out with a homeless street rat." She stated the obvious. "Gaara deserves better."

I felt a pang in my chest, then shook it off. I decided; I'm not going to feel like that. I love Gaara, and he loves me. there's nothing wrong with our relationship.

"Gaara's perfectly fine with having me as his girlfriend. Just because he doesn't like you doesn't mean you get to insult me!" I said, obviously insulted

"You'v only corrupted him, And I don't mind if he doesn't like me! Do you think it's wise to date someone who needs to focus on his responsibilities, rather than a silly girl like you?"

"If you didn't care that he doesn't like you, we wouldn't be having this conversation! Can't you people see that Gaara and I need each other?" I yelled desperately, shocking her a little. "Gaara's...My other half. And, if we don't have our other half to make a full, then the half we already have will surely crumble."

"But," Her body shook, "I'v waited so long!" She looked up at me, pointing to herself, "I'v idolized Gaara so long! Watched him, and did as he said. I didn't bother him, and let him do his work! Why is it that you, who hasn't even been here for a full year, get to have Gaara! You bother him all time, and don't let him do his work! You disobey him all the time! It's not righ-"

"Maybe, that's what Gaara wants!" I yelled back, then lowered my voice. "I know that Gaara has always been looked at differently, because of his monster. And now, I know he's happy to be the Kazekage and to not have the Shukaku. Now, he's looked at with admiration and strength. Though...Maybe sometimes he just wants to be looked at as a normal person. Not monster, not Kazekage...Just...Gaara. And I guess I was the first one to do that. I see him for the Panda-kun he is." I chuckled

She slumped her shoulders, "Still." She whispered, then looked at me strongly, "I'm not going to give up."

"Yah, you go do that." I said lazily, laying down on my bed, "But, your not going to get him."

"Just you wait." I could practically feel her eyes burn a glare into, and laughed, causing her to jump a little.

Well...This night was a little uncomfortable...Hehehe, can't wait to torture Kankuro tomorrow.
