-Gaara-

I walked into my third period and sat down at the desk in the back. Ever since last weekend Saya's been avoiding me and I don't really know why, though I have a guess. She's told me she loves me three times already and each time I've wanted to say it back, but have never been able to actually form the words and say them. I know Saya well enough to know that she probably wants to hear me actually say that I love her rather than just say I agree with her when she says it, but it's just not that easy for me.

I sighed and ran a hand through my hair as I stared at the wall at the front of the room.

"Hi there."

I looked up at the person who had stepped infront of my line of vision to see the blue haired mermaid from the first day of school. I mentally cursed my luck as I saw her sit down next to me.

"My name's Ciara, Ciara Loneirre."

She said with a smile and twirled a bit of her blue hair around her finger as she pushed out her none existant chest and crossed her legs that the little miniskirt she was in exposed.

Kami, this girl is a walking, talking blow-up sex doll.

I thought and smirked to myself at my own comment.

"So, I was like wondering, if you'd like to go out sometime."

She said and I turned my attention away from my thoughts and back to her.

"Sorry, but no."

I said simply and turned away from her.

"Aww, but why not?"

She asked in a whiney voice that grated on my ears.

"Several reasons."

I mumbled under my breath, but she still heard.

"Like what?"

She asked innocently as she cocked her head to the side. She was obviously trying to look cute, but all it did was make her look like she was trying to imitate a retarded bird.

"I have a girlfriend."

I said before picking up my pencil, flipping open my sketchbook and starting to draw.

"So? That doesn't bother me."

She said and I paused in my sketching at her words.

"Well it does me."

I said before ignoring her and going back to sketching. I smiled to myself when I realized I was sketching a picture of Saya in her bikini from the time we'd all gone to the beach.

I felt Ciara's eyes on me the entire class period, but ignored her. Finally the bell rang and I gathered my things and headed for the courtyard to meet up with everyone only to groan when Ciara caught up with me and started walking with me.

"What do you think you're doing?"

I asked sparing her a glance from the corner of my eyes as I continued to walk.

"Walking."

She said simply and I mentally groaned as I walked out into the courtyard. I blinked in surprise when I saw Saya was the only one standing beneath the tree in the middle of the courtyard, but was glad she seemed to not be avoiding me anymore.

"Hey babe, I need to talk to you."

She said and I blinked in surprise, but nodded to her and put my stuff down by the wall before walking back over to her.

"I wanted to apologize for-what the hell do you think you're doing?"

Saya asked as I felt Ciara wrap her arms around my left arm and pull it close to her.

"What do you mean?"

She asked innocently and I stared at her like she was stupid. Hell, she probably was since she wanted to piss Saya off.

"Let go of him."

Saya said through clenched teeth and I saw Ciara flash Saya a smile before I felt her tighten her grip on my arm. I saw Saya narrow her eyes and knew she was about to pounce.

I slipped out of Ciara's grip and moved infront of Saya and held her back by her shoulders.

"Doll calm down."

I said, but she growled in response and tried to get past me to Ciara. I saw TenTen and Temari and called their names. As soon as they saw what was going on they came over to help.

"Get her out of here."

I ordered them and they both nodded before effectively picking Ciara up from under her arms and carrying her off while I dealt with a seething Saya.

"Doll, calm down. She was just trying to start shit."

I said, trying to calm her down. She stopped fighting against me and growling and looked at me.

"Why didn't you push her off?"

She suddenly asked and I blinked in surprise at her.

"Say what?"

I asked and she narrowed her eyes at me.

"Why didn't you push her off of you? Did you like her clinging to you like the pathetic little whore she is?"

She asked, her voice rising with her anger.

"Saya I-"

I started, but she smacked my hands off her shoulders and stormed off.

Dammit!

-Temari-

I shivered as Shikamaru trailed his hands along my sides under my shirt. I smiled down at him before leaning in for a kiss. I'd decided to go home after TenTen and I made sure the blue haired mermaid couldn't cause anymore trouble and had found Shikamaru napping on a bench and took him home with me. Just as our lips were about to touch the living room door burst open.

"What the hell!?"

I shouted and turned to see Saya standing in the doorway.

"Saya? What the fuck?"

I asked angrily, but she ignored me and slammed the door shut.

"You, off his lap. I need to talk to someone."

She said pointing at me and I was going to argue until I saw the look in her eyes. I sighed and climbed off Shikamaru's lap and moved to sit beside him, but he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him so that I was practically in his lap, but not.

I watched as Saya plopped down in the loveseat across from us.

"Okay Saya, what's on your mind? Is it about earlier?"

I asked and she nodded.

"Tell me what happened."

I said and she sighed before explaining why she'd been avoiding Gaara, how she was going to apologize to him and talk to him about it, then how that blue haired mermaid had clung to Gaara. After that I knew what happened to the bitch. TenTen and I had tied her up and thrown her into the janitor's closet on the third floor.

"Why are you so upset?"

I asked confused and she glared at me, though I could tell the anger in her green eyes wasn't directed at me.

"Because Gaara didn't try to pull his arm away from her or push her off of him!"

She shouted and I sighed at my youngest brother's idiocy. Saya was overreacting, but Gaara should have reacted to the girl wrapping herself around him in some way and tried to get her off him.

"Saya, he was just trying to prevent a fight. He was mainly focused on you and what you were going to do. I'm telling you, there is no way Gaara liked having that little whore wrapped around his arm."

I said and it looked like she was going to say something, but shut her mouth and nodded instead.

"You're right Temari, thanks."

She said as she got to her feet.

"Sorry for interupting, you guys can go back to fucking on the couch."

She said as she reached the door. I blushed and glared at her.

"We were not fucking on the couch!"

I yelled after her, but she was already out the door.

"Well, not yet anyway."

I heard Shikamaru say and turned to look at him only to have his lips cover mine and him pull me ontop of him as he laid down on the couch. I couldn't help but smile at him as I felt his hands slip under my shirt and push it up. I just hope Saya and Gaara will work their shit out, if not then I'd have to have a serious talk with my little brother.

A/N: And there's another chapter. Hope you guys enjoy. Ciara is causing quite a problem between Saya and Gaara. Wonder what else is going to happen? Review and you guys might find out. I'll update when I can, no promises though.
