"Balance is what you should strive for when you start your training. Being overwhelmed by either darkness or light can be disastrous"

Those where the words my mother told me when she was alive. Back when my uncle thought highly of me.

I pushed my focus back to my workout. I had 3 miners till sunset. Then, I could check the balance with in me like mother told me to.

10 pushups later I had one minuet left. I stopped my workout and sat in my meditation postion.

Good(GG): "YAHOO (y/n)-chan!"

Bad(B):"What took you so fucking long? Prick."

I opened my eyes to see two women,both looked like me. Except one was darker and the other was lighter.

(if you didn't get it this is your darker and lighter self.)

The lighter half was energetic and friendly, while the other was cold and rude. Neither looked stronger that the other, but both where noticably weak. Maybe I needed more traing on the two?

B:"Dumbass thats not it."

I looked up at my anti.' what could it be if not training'

G:"Your missing Love buttercup~"

(y/n):'how? I love my mother isn't that enough?'

(GG)" Is it enough to eat food that gives no nutrients?"

(B)" Or gain power with no need for it."

(GG/B)"You need love that will help us grow."

(GG/B)"Something that will make us stronger."

(GG/B)"Something that brings both pleasure and pain."

(GG/B)"We need GAARA!"

There emotions overwhelmed me and shocked me out the our world. It had been a few weeks since that day when I last saw Gaara. I was on a mission to deliver him some papers as he is the new kazekage. I was off after that mission and decided to just send a messeage via hawk. I was there for a week and Gaara was kind enough to let me stay at his place. Temari and Kakuro where out the whole time so we kept eachother company. Almost everyday I'd give him some tea and dangos when he worked late night. Sometimes while he ate we'd chat nearly all night.

So much had happend since Naruto left. Our comrades are growing up quickly. Unlike me, the only thing that was growing in me was my heart rate when I thought about Gaara.

I smiled and the memories. I wasn't nothing big, but it caused something to shift in me. I knew I was falling for him, and thought he has changed I know not to try. I would surely get hurt but my heart and brain are at war.

I stood up and started my way home. What to do...

(y/n):"Ga-rra-a s-s-san. W-what are you doing in the leaf so late!?"

WHY MOUTH WHY! WHY YOU STUTTER! BRAIN NO TOLD YOU STUTTER!
(I feel like im spelling stutter wrong)

Garra(G):"We were heading here and we were supposed to arrive tomarrow. We were only a few hours away when we where about to set up camp. It made more since just to get it over with."

Is there a way to drown out your voice while paying attention? My heart it starting to hurt from the blissful pain it gives me.

(y/n):"Ah is that so? Well I have some tea and cookies at home if you want to come over."

He flashed the faintest of smiles and nodded. As we walked we started up a new conversation. Around everyone else he's very quite, but with me he talks for hours. It made me feel special. We talked about anything our thought process, emotions, experiences, everything.

Our conversation continued when we entered the I got out the cookie jar and started up some tea.

(G):"So how training comeing along?"

I froze. WHY MEEEEEEEE!?

(y/n):"Im stuck im blanced and strong but somethings keeping me from becomeing any stronger."

Is it a lie when I don't tell the whole truth? It felt like it was at that time.

(G):" Do you know what it is?"

(y/n):"Yes, I do"

(G):"Then work on overcoming it"

He said in a duh tone.

(y/n):"It's not that easy, I can't overcome this I have to tackle this one head one."

(G):"What's so bad about it tha-"

(y/n):" I like you"

My mouth moved with out my consent. There was no since in backing out now It was already out there.

"....."

(G):"I'm sorry (y/n)-san, but I believe you should find someone else. I don't think im capable of such feelings."

All of me broke, even the parts that knew that this would happen.

(y/n):"I know, It just ate away at me the only thing I could do was tell you."

I can hear them screaming and crying out in pain, my good and bad side did they really think that this would work? Fools, I'm not suited for the married life or any relationship for that matter.

I knew that this would happen so... Why does it hurt so bad?
