Chapter 16: Problems

Lee POV:

I picked the kettle up as it screamed and I poured it into 6 cups. Tenten and Temari had brought Shikadai. I was making Green Tea. I heard the door open, Gaara and Shinki must have been home.

"Teaaaa time!" I yelled. I heard stomping up the stairs.

"Coming" Shinkadai screeched. He was my 7 year old nephew in law, but I preferred nephew. I rubbed my eye as they walked in. My eyes immediately locked on Gaara.

"Where is Shinki..?"

"They took him"

"Is there a chance he could stay with us?" I stuttered.

"With tons of paperwork it's a maybe"

"Oh." I was sad. I wasn't ready for a kid but Gaara loved Shinki they both were different. Gaara had a glim look on his face. I walked over and rubbed his back. I let out a sigh.

"Can we just have tea with your sibling?"

"Oh yeah!" He said interrupting his own sadness. I brought the cups over.

"I made a cup for Shinki so does anyone want his tea?"

"Sure!" Tenten said as I held the cup up. I sat down next to Gaara putting my head on his shoulder.

"In the leaf everyone has kids now even Naruto!" Temari exclaimed. Everyone kept talking until it was dark.

"Hey I cleared the spare bedroom out you guys can use it." Gaara said washing his hands.

"Thanks." I walked into our room grabbing my clothes I needed a shower. After I showered I got dressed and walked out to see Gaara sitting on the bed signing paper after paper.

"Babe.. go to bed you have work tomorrow" I sat next to him.

"No, I have to finish this"

"Don't stay up to late please" I said rubbing the back of my neck. I knew he wouldn't listen. I lied down. I was tired. I put my head on his shoulder hugging him. He was really focused. I sighed. I slowly fell asleep. I woke up and looked over at my alarm clock 2:49 AM Then, I looked over to see Gaara still at work.

"Babe stop" I murmured Gaara jumped.

"Can't"

"Yes you can" I said pulling him into my arms.

"Stop." He said.

"No you can't just be up all night Gaara, it's not healthy" I said still holding him against my chest.

"But it needs done what about Shinki?"

"We have 2 weeks."

"What if somebody else wants him" he mumbled. I didn't know how to respond I held him close feeling his cold arms.

"Please. Wait until tomorrow"

"Fine.." he put his stuff off the bed and let me hold him. I felt his breathing slow down as he fell asleep. I finally, relived went back to bed. I woke up to hear Gaara's soft snoring. I knew he wouldn't be able to do his work today, I could fill in. I got up quickly grabbing my green jumpsuit. I changed and walked into Kankuro's room.

"Gaara won't be able to do his work today" I mumble

"Eh, why what did you guys do?" Kankuro said smirking.

"He was up all night, I'm worried. He is so worked up on getting Shinki."

"Oh," he frowned "I will meet you up there" I walked up quickly and sat down. What to do now? I looked around, I never really was in here. I sat down and looked out the window.
