-Kankuro-
Once Gaara got home and headed upstairs I smiled to myself. Temari had tried to help them out with my first idea and it didn't work all that well, but this time I had a feeling like this idea would work out. Something about Gaara seemed to have changed, like he finally realized what he had to do to fix things with Saya. I cut the T.V off and headed out the door. I wasn't really sure how things would go between Saya and Gaara, but I didn't want to be home when it happened, so I decided to head over to Sasuke for a little bit.
-Saya-
The silence stretched on and he never broke eye contact. When I thought I'd die from his intense gaze he finally blinked and looked away from me.
"What are you doing here?"
He asked and I shivered at the cold tone of his voice. he hadn't spoken to me like that since the first time we met.
I guess he really believed what I said yesterday.
I thought sadly.
"I just needed to get my jacket."
I said, holding it up for him to see. When he didn't say anything in response I walked towards the door.
Just as I started to walk past him he grabbed my wrist and stopped me. I turned to look at him and it seemed like he had done it out of instinct. When he didn't let go I tried to pull my wrist back, but his grip tightened slightly.
"Gaara?"
I asked and tried to get my hand back only to have him pull me back into the room and suddenly push me up against the back of his bedroom door.
When the hell did he close his door?
I wondered before focusing back on Gaara.
"Let me go."
I said, trying to get free.
"Do you really want me to let you go?"
He asked as he stepped closer to me.
"Yes, now let me go!"
I snapped and tried to get free since the pain in my chest started to wash over me again as my heartbeat picked up with having him so close to me.
I stopped when I felt him freeze. I looked up at him to see him staring at my chest and was about to chew him out and slap the shit out of him until I realized he was looking at what was hanging around my neck.
-Gaara-
I couldn't let her leave. Shikamaru helped me realize what I needed to do to fix things between Saya and me, but when she said what she did yesterday I thought I'd wasted too much time and really lost her. But now, seeing her still wearing the dogtags I'd given her made me think otherwise.
I reached down and pulled them out of her shirt and held them in my hand before looking up at her.
"You still have them."
I said, a little shocked but really happy she did.
"I forgot I was wearing them."
She said, but I could tell she was lying.
"I thought you were happy we broke up. If so, then why are you still wearing my dogtags?"
I asked softly, never taking my eyes off hers. After a few seconds of silence she finally answered me.
"I lied."
She said and I smiled at her before leaning down and pressing my lips against hers. She kissed back, but it lacked her usual passion. I pulled back and looked at her when I felt something wet hit my cheeks. My eyes widened when I saw she was crying.
"Why are you-"
I started to ask, but stopped when she shook her head.
"Because you don't love me."
She said and I felt a sting of pain go straight to my heart at how untrue her words were.
"But that's just it Saya."
I said as I reached up and cupped her cheek as I tilted her head up to look at me and wiped away her tears with my thumb.
"I do love you."
I said softly before closing the gap between us and capturing her lips in another kiss.
