-Saya-

Gaara seemed to be more open with our relationship now. I wasn't sure if it was because he just didn't give a damn who saw or because of what I'd told him two weeks ago. Temari and Shikamaru had finally made it offical and had started dating. It was kinda odd how everyone had paired up, but it was also kinda nice.

I reached up and started playing with the necklace around my neck. It was just a simple silver chain, but it had two dog tags hanging from it. It was Gaara's and he gave it to me when we'd all gone back to the boardwalk last week.

-No one-

Saya and Gaara had walked away from Naruto and the others to enjoy some time alone. Their fingers were laced together as they walked down the sidewalk. Saya saw a jewelry store and pulled Gaara inside. He watched silently as she browed around the shop looking at all the necklaces, rings, and other bits of jewelry. It was then that he realized he'd never seen her wearing any jewelry. No rings, no earrings, not even a necklace. The only thing she constantly wore was the black and red beaded belly ring.

"Hey, how much for this bracelet?"

He heard her ask the salesclerk and saw her point to a bracelet that seemed to be woven together with three different colors of thread.

"Fifteen dollars."

The salesclerk said and Gaara frowned. Fifteen dollars for a bracelet made from colored string seemed like a ripoff to him.

"Thank you and have a nice day."

The salesclerk said and Gaara blinked in surprise when Saya pulled him out of the store with the bracelet in her hand.

"Why did you buy that?"

He asked as they stopped at the docks.

"I liked it."

Saya said with a shrug before grabbing his right wrist and sliding the black, red, and green braclet on it.

"Why?"

Gaara asked confused as he looked at how the colored threads weaved together to wrap around his wrist.

"Because it reminded me of us. The red is like your hair, the green is like my eyes, and the black stands for eternity."

Saya explained and Gaara looked at her for a second before smirking at her.

"You're so special."

He said as he ruffled her hair making her frown. She fixed her hair and sat down at the end of the pier and let her feet hang down over the side. Gaara stared at her from his spot behind her before reaching up to the necklace he always wore and lifted it up over his head and walked over to Saya. He slipped it over her head and sat beside her.

He watched her look down at the two dog tags curiously. She looked at the one that had the kanji for love carved on it first, then looked at the one with his full name carved on it.

"I've had them since my mother passed away."

He said and Saya looked at him confused since she'd met his mom at the concert they did in school.

"My father married my mother's twin sister and she took on her name so my siblings and I would have a mother growing up, but I knew it wasn't her the moment I saw her."

He explained and Saya held the dog tags gently in her hand.

"Are you sure you want to give me these?"

She asked as she turned to look at him. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his lap.

"I'm positive."

He said before he tilted her head up and kissed her.

-Saya-

The sound of someone knocking at the door brought me out of my reviere. We all turned to look at the door until TenTen got up and answered it. I felt someone grab me from round my waist and pull me across the couch. I blinked in surprise and looked up to see Gaara smirking down at me. I blushed as I realized he'd pulled me into his lap yet again, but didn't care once he leaned down and kissed me.

-TenTen-

When no one got up to answer the door I did. I blinked in surprise when I saw two tall, tan, blonde haired beach bums in the doorway. Very toned shirtless beach bums.

"'Sup."

The one with blue eyes said with a smile.

"Hi..."

I said slowly wondering what they wanted.

"There's a beach party tonight at nine, you and your friends should totally come."

The other one said and I blushed as I saw him check me out.

"I'll tell them. Thanks for stopping by."

I heard Neji's voice from behind me before the door was suddenly slammed in their faces.

Uh-oh.

I thought before turning around to see my not too happy boyfriend.

"I don't like blondes."

I said with a shrug and I saw him wanting to keep frowning at me, but as I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck he cracked a smile and I kissed him.

"Oi! Stop making out and tell us who was at the door!"

Temari yelled and I sighed as Neji and I broke apart.

"There's a beach party at nine and we're invited."

I said and blushed when Neji's arms wrapped around my waist.

"Really? Where at?"

Naruto asked and everyone looked at him for a second before Saya smacked him upside the head.

"You dumbass. The beach, where else?"

Saya said and we all shook our heads at him. It was Naruto, that was the only way to describe him, but that's what made us love him.
