When they arrived in the Hidden Leaf Village Gaara instantly felt peaceful like all the rage and hatred inside him suddenly went away after signing his name on the sheet he turned with his team and found the cause the closer they got the more relaxed he felt a pink-haired girl with emerald green eyes hopped up and bowed to them he was shocked most people hated him the minute they saw him but this girl was smiling and chattering away as she and her blonde teammate led them through the village to the hotel they would be staying at.
The next day the girl arrives to pick them up and take them around the village showing them the sights Gaara later found out that her name was Sakura Aburame he had noticed while she was telling them the history of the village she kept shifting and so he used his sand to cushion her knee's and she smiled radiantly at him while everyone else edged away in fear but not her she payed no mind to this instead "Thank you Gaara-san" Sakura thanked him and then in the next breath continued on before finishing up with the Leaf's History.
When she stood up a blonde girl came over shrieking and insulting Sakura and Gaara nearly killed the irritating female but Sakura took care of it including saving the idiotic girl when she falls off the cliff when they were done and the female had left Sakura turned them smiling again and then led them to a tea and dango shop paying for their order herself until her other teammate and her sensei appears when they were finished Kankurou piped up and then they were led to the training grounds Gaara watched Sakura spar against his sister he was completely impressed.
Later when they had been taken back to their hotel his two older siblings and his sensei cornered him at the back table "Gaara why are you being so nice to Sakura-san usually you cant stand anyone" Baki asks enquiringly in case he had to warn the Hokage about the homicidal teen "Yeah what's the big idea what happened to the..." Temari spoke up before lowering her voice into a whisper "Plan" Kankurou nodding along next to her as they all ganged up on him Gaara refrained from smirking wanting to drag this out a big longer in amusement.
As the three sit there staring at him the minutes tick by Temari was becoming impatient she really wanted to know what had gotten into Gaara he was different somehow and she really wanted to know 'Damn I already thought that' Temari thought before focusing on Gaara again who with a swirl of sand appears on the stair well leading up to their rooms "She soothes the beast" he murmurs shocking all three of the people staring at him before turning and heading up the stairs to his room while Baki, Temari and Kankurou sit there completely and utterly shocked.
