The Shadow and The Sand ( Gaara love story)

Chapter 33

It's been about a month since the incident between Gaara and I occurred. And since then we have not spoken much other than the occasional greeting in the streets. But of course, even though I know there is no chance between us, whenever I see him my heart cannot help but to skip a beat. My palms get sweaty and it takes everything I have to not just stare at his handsome figure. Of course seeing the young Kazekage sets my heart into a whirl, there is one thing that really turns my mood to the worst, and it is that little brown haired child Matsuri. It would seem that whenever she is around she makes sure to know that Gaara is hers. And to be honest, it really pisses me off. To the point where I want to get violent and rip her little head from her body and bathe in her blood... ok... that may be a bit much... but it just really pisses me off. Like now! I am currently having dinner with the sand siblings, thanks to the invite by Temari, and the little brat will not stop flirting with Gaara! How annoying and I can safely say that I am not the only one who thinks that.

"Say Matsuri, let the boy eat! Can't you see he's withering away?!" I snickered as the brown haired girl glared at me.

"Why don't you just mind your own business shadow girl!" She retaliated with a smug look.

"oh dear was that supposed to be an insult? How adorable!" I gave her a closed eyed smile as a dark fiery aura surrounded me.

Watching our spat the two older siblings stared at the both of us with an anime sweat mark on their heads.

"Hey Temari," Kankuro whispered to his older sister, "don't you think we should calm them down? I mean... as much as I think it would be hot to see a cat fight. But I mean... look at Gaara."

Both turning to look at their younger brother saw a very uncomfortable red head. He looked between the two girls as if deciding whose side to take.

"Just look at him! It's like he can't decide whether to go for his fiancée or for the girl he actually likes! He needs help!" looking at each other and nodding the two siblings got up, Kankuro went to Yorus side and Temari went to Matsuris side. As if they practiced, they both grabbed the girls they were with and pulled them into separate rooms leaving a very confused Kazekage.

~With Kankuro and Yoru~

"What is the meaning of this?" I looked at the older brother with a questioning look.

"Sorry but I can to tell you to stop fighting with Matsuri! As much as I would love to have a hot girl like you as a sister in law, I care about my little brother also, and I can't stand seeing him so uncomfortable!"

"mmm... ok yeah I get you. I'll stop with the bickering. But if she tells me something I won't hesitate to say something back!" I looked at the older boy and crossed my arms.

"ok deal! I just want Gaara to be happy. The world knows how much he needs it." And with that the brown haired boy walked out of the room.

"Man don't I know it." Giving out a sigh, I stared up at the ceiling.

'Is all this really worth it? He hasn't even looked at me since I got here. So what makes me think that he holds any feeling for me at all? Nothing. Maybe I should just go back to my village. no.... if I did that it would mean that I lost. And I am a pretty sore loser.'

Taking a deep breath and letting it out I returned back to the dining room where the two brothers sat.

~With Temari and Matsuri~

"Ok Matsuri. I think its time to stop fighting with Yoru. You've won already! Gaara decided to marry you so why do you keep on poking at Yoru? To be honest you look like a small kitten trying to pull the tail of a lion! You know what she is capable of so why keep messing with her?"

Matsuri looked down and away from his future sister in law. She knew what she said was true, but she had a little too much pride to actually admit it.

"I am only like that to remind her that he is mine! Were engaged and she will not get in the way! I saw what happened between them on the rooftop that time! She may say that she will give up on him but I see the way she still looks at him! I've come to far to just let Gaara slip through my fingers!" the younger girl crossed her arms and looked at the older girl, "I'll do anything to stay with him and she will not take him away from me!"

With that, the young brunette walked out of the room in a huff.

Sighing, Temari looked up at the ceiling, "So she's just insecure. Typical of young girls but..." shaking her head she followed the young girl out of the room to where the others are.

"So how did it go with you?" Kankuro whispered to his older sister.

"Well, all I learned was that Matsuri is just really insecure. I feel like she knows that if Yoru actually tried to get Gaara that he will leave her and realize his what he really feels."

Both siblings looked back at the two girls, who were surprisingly quiet. Both avoided any kind of contact with each other, trying their best to avoid looking or touching each other.

After a couple of minuetes Yoru froze. She slammed down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up.

"I'm sorry but I have to go"

"Wait why?!" Temari stood up and followed the girl who had run towards the door.

"Hey sorry Temari but I have to go back to my village. Something is happening and Yoshino told me to go back immediately."

With that the shadow wielder ran off into the night. Upon returning to her apartment she felt a presence.

"Come out I know you're there"

Not bothering to look around at who was there, Yoru continued packing her things.

"Well then Yoru! You have to be much more careful! You didn't even get in a defense stance so you not care for your life that much?"

Rolling her eyes she turned to the boy.

"Oh shut it Yoshino, I knew it was you so why should I bother with turning around and trying to fight?"

The older boy laughed and walked towards the girl, wrapping his arms around her waist and walking forward until the back of her legs bumped the bed.

"Now Yoru, you know that I'm a man, there for I am physically stronger than you, meaning that I can do anything I want to do."

Lowering his head he grazed his lips against her neck. Yoru closed her eyes irritated. Her shadows had come out and wrapped themselves around the boy.

"What the hell! Did you lie to me just to get me to sleep with you?"

The boy smirked, "Well maybe a little." The shadows wrapped around him grew tighter hindering his breathing. "Oh come on please! I'm sure you can feel it. I'm in heat! I would rather do it with you than to attack someone and get in trouble."

Glaring at the boy, she let him down. "You should have just told me instead of lie to me. I was really worried."

"I know I know I'm sorry." Yoshino walked towards the girl again and pushed her on the bed pressing her lips to hers.

'This doesn't bother me. It's not like I have a lover or anything...'

Yo everyone who has read up to this far! I know its been about a year since I've updated. But I have lost most of the inspiration for this story. Due to me no longer being that big a fan of Naruto as I had been. But don't worry I will try my best to finish this story!
