Door to My Heart (Gaara Love Story)

Jerk and Smoky

Note: Omgah! Whats really cool about this chapter is that...I actually have this necklace!! Ah~~! Its so pretty~<3 I wear it all the time.

Anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter!^^

I was back before the break of dawn. In front of the Hokage’s office – Again. I didn’t take that long, assuming I don’t own very many things. Except. I fidgeted with the charm necklace around my neck while walking through her stupid building full of unnecessary turns.

Many people don’t think I own anything very significant or special. Well, I guess that’s true. Heh, except for this.I looked down into the delicate silver charm hanging around my neck. It was in the shape of a moon.

Or a bannana??

I can’t really tell. Nor do I care.

I really liked this necklace. Whats awesome about this is that it glows in the dark. And yes, It was from Him. How Predictable.

But not only because of that. But because, whenever I look at the silver charm. It looks like a star. Shinning. Like one that is following me around everywhere and giving me good luck.

Funny how I don’t believe in good luck charms. Or luck to begin with. Yet, I still carry this around with me, everywhere. Am I a hypocrite?

I reached the Hokage’s office quickly hid the charm necklace underneath my shirt and kicked the door open.

I guess I sort of broke it.

But I have a good reason. Did I mention, I hate doors?

The first thing I saw after my dramatic, no awesome entrance, was Choji giving Shikamaru $10.

“Haha, told you she’d break it.” Shikamaru said with am unusually big grin on his normally bored looking face. I dropped my bag and ran up to him. I think he could tell what was going to happen judging by the way he quickly used his Shadow Imitation move.

I quickly disappeared and appeared once again behind him and punched him hard while avoiding his Shadow.

Well, seeing as we were best friends, not as hard as I could have.

“You bet on this?!” I yelled. He just chuckled.

I walked over towards him once again to give him a harder beating since he was pissing me off but my attention was diverted back to Tsunade-sama.

“Erika! Good, you’re here. Shikamaru will accompany you to Sand and just to make sure you don’t completely beat the living daylights out of him along the way, I’m sending Asuma aswell.”

I glared. I will do more than just beat the living daylights out of him. And I don’t think sending Smoky will do much help.

“Asuma will meet you at the gates in 5 minutes so go now.” And with that, Shikamaru dragged me out of the building.

“Hey, Hey! Let go!” I said while he was dragging my down the stairs towards the front entrance. His nails were gripping into my skin, and I swear if there was one thing I hated more than doors, was the pain of nails biting into my skin.

No actually, I still hate doors more .

I took out my kunai getting ready to “Stab him” when really, I was just bluffing. Lucky for me, he thought I was serious, slowed down and let go of my arm. Victory.

I looked down at my now bruised and full of nail marks arm. You jerk Shikamaru. You jerk with freakishly long nails. I shot him a look. A dirty one.

He just shrugged and said “You’re really slow…its bothersome to wait for you.”. I will kill you in your sleep…er…once I return to Konoha after this stupid relocation.

We eventually reached the main gates where Asuma was supposedly meeting us. And there he was. Leaning on the pole with a lighter in one hand, the other one stuffed in his pocket and a cigarette in his mouth. He had the same smug look on his face as Shikamaru after he owns me at Shogi. All. The. Freaking. Time.

“Good Morning you two. Ready?” He said, with the cigarette still in between his lips. I dropped my bags on the ground…where Shikamaru’s foot was.

Payback.

Then walked over to Asuma, grabbed the cigarette right out of his mouth and threw in on the ground. I may have stomped on it a few times. Maybe twenty. Just to prove my point. Then walked out the gates with my head held high.

“I am now.” I smirked, earning an exasperated sigh from both of them. Stuff you both.

I’m awesome.
