Disclaimer: I do not own that which belongs to another.
Gaara watched the raven haired teen leave, the door closing behind her before he sat up from the bed, a shaking hand caressing his overheated forehead.
He hadn't seen the point to fight her nursing, but now he thought that perhaps he should've struggled more. It was never a good idea to allow that chakra stealing witch any closer than necessary. He could still feel his heartbeat thrash against his ribcage, and if Gaara had not known it was impossible, he might think his heart was in danger of leaping from his chest, a masochistic smile tugging his mouth's corners.
