WHAT ARE REAL MONSTERS (Gaara x Oc)

Heal

Okami's pov.

I laid on the hospital bed, but I couldn't help but wonder how Hinata, Lee and Kiba were doing. I knew Gaara was strong and I knew that the One tails will was strong. I had hoped Gaara would be able to overcome his blood lust, but I had hoped for a lot of things that hadn't come true.

I knew I wasn't discharged yet but I hated staying in one place with all this worry without knowing what was going on. I stood up and walked over to the window, the sun was staring to set. I opened the window, felt the cold air against my skin, I took a deep breath as I jumped down onto a nearby tree.

I was still in that horrible hospital gowns. I snuck all the way to my favorite spot in the woods. When I got to the stream, I saw Gaara sitting cross-legged and his arms crossed as well and his eyes closed. I was so confused, but then I saw that HE HAD MY WOLF PUP UP IN THE AIR WITH HIS SAND, AGAIN!!

"Seriously, can you stop doing that to the poor thing?!" I yelled at him. He opened one of his eyes then closed it again. "He wouldn't stop bugging me, how you can stand him is a marical." he said like it was no big deal. "*sigh* Just put him down." I said a little annoyed.

He did as I told him, though he didn't seem to pleased about it. He stood up and walked over to me and got close to my face,"Now that you know what I can do, are you afraid of me?" I was getting uncomfortable with how close he was to me. I swallowed hard, "I will never be afraid of someone who is a prisoner, a weapon, a tool, someone who has a kind and caring heart, even when they don't realize it. I am not afraid of a jenchuriki."

He seemed shocked, then he got serious, "If that was true then why are you crying?"he asked. I touched my cheek and I really was crying. "Because I was worried about you, I thought...I thought that I was going to lose you." I sobbed in my hands. Gaara looked like he saw a ghost or something like that.

I sniffed as I looked up at him after all he was a few inches taller than me. He didn't do anything, he just stood there looking at me. I wiped my tears from my face and walked past him towards the stream and cleaned my face with the water. "Why?" I heard Gaara ask. I looked at him from over my shoulder, I was about to ask what he meant when he went on. "Why did you help that stupid dog boy or that weak girl or even that eyebrow moron? But most importantly, why don't you run away from me, or at least avoid me?" I looked back at the stream, "Because, my mentor..." I poused. "What of your mentor?" Gaara urged me to continue. "Just like you and I, he's the out cast of the village, a freak of nature, someone who should just drop dead and the name the villagers love the most to call us, a monster."

"Hold on you said me and you, are you...." "No I'm not a jenchuriki, but I'm treated like one." I interrupted him. I was surprised to see that he was now sitting next to me, "You probably know about me not having chacra." I said as he only nodded in reply. "Because of that, the children from the hidden leaf, hidden mist and the hidden cloud, would constantly bully me. One day I couldn't take it anymore so I acadentally made a land slide by the hidden clouds. I almost killed a few kids and shinobi."

I felt his gace on me, I took in a big breath and continued. "The bullying only got worse from there, I tried hiding in the most secluded places I could find, but one day a stranger came to me and he cheered me up. As time went I found out he was the aught tails jenchuriki, but after all he did for me I couldn't be afraid of him so he began training me. But my caln had to move on to the next village, I wasn't happy about that, but on the way I met the two tails jenchuriki, the three tails jenchuriki and the seven tails jenchuriki. To me, the jenchuriki are the kindest people ever and my best friends."I said with a smile on my face.

Gaara's pov.

The way she talked, I could tell she was telling the truth and that she really happy about meeting the jenchurikis. Strangest girl I ever met. "Gaara promise me."she said out of the blue, "What?" I asked confused. "Promise me that you will never allow the one tail to control you." she told me as she looked me in the eye. I was so shocked at this I couldn't talk, "Promise..." she urged me, "just nod your head."she said, I did as she said and nodded my head slowly.

It was quite between us, it was nice then Okami talked again."I learned something from them, and I do that every day." she told me. "What did you learn?" I asked, confused of what jenchuriki could teach her other than how to fight or kill. "They tought me that I need to give myself  time to heal, no matter how long it may take no matter how many times I wanna give up." something sparked in me like I heard that from someone else, but where?

Time skip.

We walked back to the hospital when I finally realized she was still in the hospital gown. "I still don't understand why your forsing me back here." "Just get back in your room." I said to her worningly. "And let you see under this stupid gown? You perv." when she said that I had it with her nonsense, so I used my sand wrapped it around both of us and lifted us to her window.

"Wait, how'd you know which one was my window? You really are stalking me." I dropped her on her bed I was about to leave when she grabbed my arm. "*sigh*I came here when you were asleep, to kill that jumpsuit freak..." from the look on her face I guess she was not expecting that.

"But that blonde idiot and that shadow user interfered. Then his sensei came and I left. Your room is nearby his." I went on. "Thanks." she said, I looked at her from over my shoulder. "For not killing him, and listening to my complaints." she explained. I felt something soft on my cheek, my eyes widden when I found her in front of me ,kissing my cheek. When she pulled away she smiled then went to bed. I left her alone so I could think about what just happened.

I went back to the hotel we were staying at. I stayed on the roof, I touched the cheek she kissed, and felt something worm inside. What is she doing to me, what is this feeling, I kind of like it. For the rest of the night I smiled and thought of Okami.
