'Thoughts'
[Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto...]

A soft touch

A soft touch, a gentle voice. It was all
that took to get Gaara to find his path to love.

Gaara and his siblings had been called
in to help in the Uchiha�s rescue. Temari to save Shikamaru from the sound ninja
known as Tayuya. A real foulmouthed bitch as it turned out. And Kankurou, he got
to Kiba just before the dog lover got stabbed. And Gaara, he got to Rock Lee in
the nick of time as well. The fight he had against the sound ninja was a tough
one. Although Gaara himself was thought of as a monster, this Kimimaro was even
worse. Gaara called him a monster too. Just seeing those bones sticking out of
his body was actually a bit creepy. The battle went on for hours but Gaara
finally defeated the obsessed nin. But it had taken a lot out of Gaara and just
before they came to Konoha village, he collapsed. Rock Lee carried him to the
hospital where he was placed under the care of the shy Hyuuga-heiress, Hinata.

When Gaara came in unconscious, Temari
and Kankurou freaked out. A sleeping Gaara was a very dangerous Gaara. But
Hinata had gently pushed them out of the hospital room, telling them not to
worry about it. Once they were out of the room she turned towards the
unconscious sand ninja.

Hinata activated her Byakugan, scanning
his body to check for damages. By using her own chakra she was able to stabilize
his, making sure that he was out of harms reach. She had detected a few holes
where his chakra was escaping, but to a person with her skills, it was no
problem to heal them.

Tsunade, the fifth Hokage, came through
the door, she wanted to make sure that everything went alright and she was met
by a strange sight.

In the room lay Gaara of the Desert. He
was still asleep and next to him sat Hinata on a chair. With one hand she held
onto his, and her other hand was placed on his forehead. But the most disturbing
thing was that the sand ninja was smiling in his sleep. Gaara never smiled
unless he was in one of his crazy states. And those smiles were the indication
that you should run away as fast as you possibly could. But this� this was a
good, honest and warm smile.

-
Hinata-san? Tsunade asked.

-
Ssshhh, he�s sleeping. And don�t worry, he�ll just need a good night of
sleep and he�ll be back in his old shape. So tell his siblings that they can
relax, whispered Hinata.
Tsunade wanted to protest, but Hinata
just shook her head. There was nothing to worry about.

Tsunade, too stunned, to say anything,
just nodded and exited the room, closing the door silently behind her. She took
a deep breath once she came outside and then she walked over to the two sand
ninjas that seemed to be sitting on needles.

Hinata looked at Gaara again. She had
been scared when Tsunade had placed him in her care. But Hinata refused to let
her fear for the redheaded boy take over. She had decided that she would become
a medic nin, and this was her calling. She had swallowed her fear and proceeded
to heal the exhausted Gaara.

When she had patted his hand he had
grabbed hers, holding it tightly. She looked at him, his eyes half closed, but
he was awake.

-
Don�t go, he whispered and Hinata had nodded and pulled forth a chair
with her free hand.
She sat down next to him, speaking
softly to him and when she felt him relax, she had put her other hand on his
forehead, guiding soft and soothing energy into his chakra system. It had been
during this time, that Tsunade had chosen to enter the room. After a few
exchanges of words, the Hokage left, leaving Hinata alone again. Hinata was
aware that everyone was worried because Gaara was sleeping. But Hinata had a gut
feeling that everything was going to turn out just fine.

It was odd. Gaara woke up, feeling a
soft hand on his. Not wanting to loose it, he grabbed hold of it, asking the
person to stay. His eyes opened a bit and he saw the blushing face of Hinata.
She had nodded and sat down next to him. He could hear her soft voice talk to
him about getting his rest so he could go back to his sister and brother. She
told him what she was doing to him, that she was giving him extra energy to gain
his chakra system up and running again. And then she sang. Dear Gods, her voice
went straight to his heart. Memories of his childhood resurfaced and he wanted
to cry. But somehow it was not as painful as it had been in the past. The
ear-splitting pains were no longer there when he thought of his childhood.
Instead, when he felt her hand on his forehead, there was only contentment
present in his mind.

Several hours later he awoke again. He
blinked a few times and then he scanned the room for any signs of blood shed,
but found none. His demon had not gone on a rampage while he was sleeping. He
saw Hinata sleep with her head against their clutched hands. Gaara took a few
moments to look at her, etching her face into his memory, before he untangled
his hand from her hold and moved out of the bed. His gourd stood against the
wall next to the bed and he strapped it on. With the help of his sand, he
created a gypsum rose � a Desert Rose. He placed it on the pillow he had used
and then he left.

He found Temari and Kankurou sitting
outside the room. They looked at him with both curiosity and confusion in their
eyes.

-
Let�s go, he said and they nodded in silence.
Moments later they were gone.

When Hinata came around she was alone.
She felt sad, but she had almost expected it. Gaara was not the one to stick
around to say good bye or say thank you for the help. But her heart was stuck in
her throat when she saw the stone rose on the pillow. There was no doubt in her
mind about who had left it there. She picked it up and held it to her heart. She
would forever cherish this gift from him.

When Hinata came to the reception of the
hospital she overheard that Naruto had been brought back unconscious and she ran
to his room. The blue eyed boy with the sun kissed hair was thoroughly bandaged.
Hinata tiptoed over to him and stopped at the head of the bed. His eyelids were
fluttering as if he was having a bad dream or a very vivid one. She was about to
caress his face when she heard him mumble in his sleep and then the name Sakura
spilled from his lips. It made Hinata pull her hand back as if she had burnt
herself. Two seconds later she was running out of the room, not looking back.
Her young heart had broken at that very moment. The pain that her cousin had
caused her during the Chuunin-exams was nothing compared to what she was
experiencing now. She realized that Naruto never would love her; he was forever
Sakura�s. Tears run down her cheeks as she ran passed Shikamaru, almost knocking
the lazy ninja to the ground and then she found her way out of the hospital. She
just had to get away from everything.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Not so many months after Hinata�s 14^th
birthday she had been disowned by her father. He told her straight to her face
that she no longer was worth the title of the Hyuuga-house. She was thrown out
of her home; she wasn�t allowed to keep anything but the clothes she was
wearing. Devastated she went to the Hokage, asking for help.

Tsunade almost exploded with anger when
she heard of Hiashi�s actions towards his eldest daughter. People like him
should be forbidden to have children at all. But she never said that to Hinata,
but she was going to give the head of the Hyuuga-clan a tongue-slashing he never
would forget. Tsunade helped Hinata to find a small place to live and a job at
the children�s hospital. The girl was a natural to taking care of kids. From
this day on, Hinata would be her special prot�g�.

Hinata was grateful for Tsunade�s help.
Without her, Hinata would have nothing. The months passed and Hinata became
somewhat of an outcast of the village. She never went anywhere except when she
went to work or went to shop. She cut most bonds with her former friends. But
Shino and Kiba refused to let her cut the bonds with them. They had been team
mates for so long and they were still her friends. They often visited her at the
hospital and Kiba�s dog Akamaru was a great source of joy for the children she
was working with.

The two young men knew that something
was wrong with Hinata. Something had happened. Most of the people that met her
couldn�t see the change, but they could.

And it was Kiba that pointed out to
Shino that Hinata no longer stuttered or blushed every time Naruto�s name came
up. No, instead she got the look of someone that had gotten her heart crushed.
Kiba shouted revenge, but Shino, being the logical of the two, said that she
might have realized that Naruto always would love Sakura and not Hinata. Hinata
just had to process the heart ache before she could go on. Kiba had accepted the
bug boy�s words, but he was still furious about it.

But when three more years passed, Shino
was not sure anymore. He had seen on more then one occasion during his visits to
Hinata�s small house, that she was looking very strangely at an object in her
glass cabinet. He had looked at it once and knew it was a gypsum rose and when
he tried to touch it once, she had shouted frantically at him not to touch it.
He had of course asked where she got it and she blushed and said it had been a
gift. But she refused to tell him from whom she had gotten it. Just a friend I
knew long ago had been her answer.

Hinata knew that Shino and Kiba were
worried about her. Her childhood infatuation of Naruto had passed, but she still
admired the sun kissed boy for his strength and determination. But she was a
young woman now and with all that came with it. Many of the girls still swooned
around Sasuke; the boy had been brought back not long after the first futile
attempt. Hinata had seen Naruto�s suffering when Sakura had proclaimed her
undying love for Sasuke. Ino was not far behind either, leaving Shikamaru with a
troublesome heart ache too.

Hinata was happy when Tenten suddenly
began to show interest in Naruto. The two had shyly begun to date and now they
were happily married and Tenten was expecting their first child. She wished them
all the luck in the world.

Shino, Kiba, Shikamaru and her cousin
Neji, was still bachelors. She wondered what kind of girls they would find in
the future. She smiled softly when her memories of her stoic cousin came to
mind. After she had been disowned by her father, he had become more accepting of
her, helping her out when ever she needed it. But what ever went on inside that
genius head of his, she never knew.

But as a teenager, Hinata suffered from
the hormonal disaster every teenager went through. She began to long for contact
with that special someone. With someone that she loved. She wanted to be hugged,
she wanted to be kissed. She wanted to have someone to cuddle up next to when
the thunderstorms rolled in over the village during the rain season.

She could wake up during the middle of
the night. Her body was throbbing with unleashed desire. Her breasts felt heavy
and sensitive and she could feel the moisture gather between her legs. She had
at first refused to do anything about it, but the need for release became to
great and she often had to satisfy herself and the name of her imaginary lover
was always the same.

Gaara.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Tsunade often caught herself thinking
about the young Hyuuga-girl. Hinata was a real gem; Tsunade had no problem
accepting that. There was never any trouble at the children�s hospital now when
Hinata was working there. The children loved the white eyed girl and she in turn
loved them back. Yep, a real pearl she was.

But when Hinata didn�t think that nobody
saw, she would get this sad and longing look in her eyes. Tsunade had often seen
it and she wondered who the boy was. Because Tsunade was sure that it was
because of a boy. But it was not Naruto anymore. At a rare moment, she had
confided in Tsunade, telling the Hokage that she was over the blue eyed, blonde
boy. But when Tsunade asked her who was her new sweet heart, Hinata had said
that it was nobody. Tsunade didn�t believe a word of that, but she couldn�t
force the girl to answer her questions.

The brown eyed Hokage sighed in defeat.
Hinata was a very complicated girl. She doubted that there was anyone that
actually knew the real Hinata. The Hinata that sometimes looked so longingly
towards the sky.

Today was Tsunade�s thoughts cut short
when Hyuuga, Hiashi came bashing through the door. The silence in her room was
disrupted by a piercing scream. A baby�s scream.

-
Hiashi-sama, what is the meaning of this? asked Tsunade.

-
Here! Take the brat, spat the head of the Hyuuga-clan and held out a
small infant.

-
Huh?

-
This bastard is not welcomed in my home!

-
Is it yours? asked Tsunade but she refused to take the baby in her arms.

-
Are you mad? Of course it isn�t. A woman of the branch house ran off and
got pregnant. But the man died and she came back, thinking I would help her. She
died while giving birth to this bastard child. But I refuse to take care of it,
snarled Hiashi furiously.
He placed the screaming baby on
Tsunade�s desk.

-
Hey, what are you doing?

-
She�s the village problem now, thus she�s yours Hokage-sama! stated
Hiashi and then he turned around and stormed out of the room, leaving a stunned
Hokage behind with a screaming baby.
Once Tsunade realized what just happened
she shouted.

-
Shizune-san!!!!
Her assistant and dear friend came
running through the door.

-
Find Hinata-san and tell her to find food and things fro a few hours old
baby� NOW!!!!

-
Yes, Tsunade-sama, gasped Shizune, shocked beyond reason.
But she did as she was asked and
disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Tsunade picked up the baby and held it
at arms length as she watched it. She would investigate the mother and father
more thoroughly once the baby was off her hands. Hiashi had once again earned
himself a tongue-lashing, and now perhaps even a god damn spanking too!!

Shizune found Hinata and together they
filled a bag with the necessary things for the baby and then they ran back to
the Hokage�s office.

Hinata had been stunned by Shizune�s
message, but she just swallowed and did as she was asked. When Hinata came into
the room she heard Tsunade vow never to have kids. The �damn brat�, had just
peed all over her papers. When she saw Hinata she looked relieved and handed
over the baby to Hinata.

-
Thank God, Hinata. Here is your new mission. Take care of the baby until
we can find a suitable home for it, said Tsunade.
The gentle Hinata cradled the crying
baby in her arms while looking very confused.

-
N-new mission Hokage-sama?

-
Yes, you�ll take care of this� this�. this baby. Your tasks at the
hospital will be placed on others for a while, but don�t worry. Once we find a
home for this critter, you�ll have your old job back. Now go, I have work to do,
stated Tsunade.

-
Oh�.

-
Any questions Hinata-san?

-
N-no.

-
Good, and what ever you need, just tell Shizune-san and she�ll get it for
you.

-
Hai.

-
Now go before I loose my patience with the brat.
Hinata nodded and grabbed the bag she
had brought and walked out of the office.

Tsunade fell back on her chair with a
heavy sigh. She looked at her desk and she made a disgusted snort before calling
in Shizune again.

-
Tsunade-sama?

-
Call for a cleaning unit, my desk need some serious scrubbing, said
Tsunade and rubbed the bridge of her nose.

-
Hai, Tsunade-sama.
And with that Shizune was gone, leaving
Tsunade alone with her cursing.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Hinata hurried home with her �bundle of
joy�. Although this little bundle didn�t seem very joyful at all at the moment.
She took a deep breathe of relief when she finally reached her small house and
unlocked the door. The infant�s cries had made many look curiously at the shy
kunoichi, and Hinata hated attention.

First things first. The baby needed to
be cleaned up. It disturbed Hinata that she still could see remnants of birth
blood, clinging to the baby�s skin and hair. But she got her biggest surprise
when the baby finally calmed down and opened her eyes. They were pearly white,
just like her own eyes.

Hinata had a Hyuuga baby on her hands.
But how did the Hokage get her hands on it? Hinata decided to call Tsunade later
to get the whole story.

Once the baby was cleaned Hinata wrapped
in a soft baby blanket. The little girl began to whimper again when Hinata made
food. The mother�s milk replacement was soon done and she put the baby bottle to
the little girl�s mouth.

-
Please baby, take it, you must eat, whispered Hinata as she struggled to
get the baby to take the rubber nipple into her mouth.
It took her a few agonizing minutes
before the girl took it and began to suckle it. �Thank you, dear Gods.�
thought Hinata and smiled softly at the baby. Once the baby was satisfied,
Hinata placed her against her shoulder and tried to get her to burp. And it
didn�t take long before it came up.

-
Good girl. And now to find you some clothes, but I think I�ll have to
call Shizune-san to pick up a few things for you and come over here with, said
Hinata.
Shizune was more than willing to help
Hinata with that, but it was harder to get any answers from Tsunade. But after a
few threats about making Tsunade to take care of the girl herself, Hinata got
her answers. And the answers she got made Hinata see red. If a thought could
kill, Hinata�s father would have been dead in this very moment. She never
thought that her father could be that cruel to an innocent, but apparently, she
was wrong. She looked down at the sleeping girl.

-
You need a name little one. What is a good name for you? she asked as she
stroked the hairs on the baby�s head. � Hikari? Yes, that is a good name for you
baby.
And with that Hinata hugged the little
baby close to her, feeling some parts of her empty heart being filled once
again. The girl would become the light in Hinata�s dark world.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Two months passed but nobody was willing
to take on a Hyuuga-baby. And now Hinata wasn�t so sure that she could let
Hikari go. Something had to be done.

Tsunade looked at Hinata with a frown.

-
Are you sure Hinata-san? asked Tsunade.

-
Yes, Hokage-sama. I love Hikari and my heart would die if you took her
away from me, said Hinata softly. � And besides, I don�t think I�ll ever find
that special someone that I could have children with.
Tsunade�s brown eyes widened. Hinata
rarely spoke about her personal life.

-
Please, Hokage-sama, let me be Hikari�s mother? pleaded Hinata.
Tsunade mentally sighed. She could never
deny Hinata anything when she used that tone.

-
Alright Hinata-san. I will work out the necessary papers for you and once
its done I�ll come over with them, said Tsunade.
Hinata�s eyes began to shine and she
rushed over to Tsunade and hugged her as hard as she could with a baby on her
arm.

-
Thank you, Tsunade� Thank you! whispered Hinata, moved to tears.
Tsunade blushed a bit but hugged the
little kunoichi back. The poor girl had a fucked up childhood, her first tender
love never saw her and on top of that, her father had kicked her out of the
family. It was time for Hinata to experience happiness in her life. And Tsunade
would do anything to make Hinata happy.

Hinata cried as the tension inside her
heart left her. She cried all the way home.

-
Who ever your real mother is, I hope she can accept me as your new mother
Hikari-chan, mumbled Hinata as she closed the door to her home. � But I promise
your real mother that I would do anything to keep you safe and happy.
And with that holy vow made, Hinata went
into the kitchen to prepare a celebration dinner. They were now mother and
daughter.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Two days later, Tsunade got a call from
Shizune. The Kazekage from the Sand village was here to see the Hokage.

-
Send him in, said Tsunade and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. She had
been sleeping on her job again.
In front of her was the papers that
Hinata to have to be Hikari�s official mother. The Kazekage was let inside her
office and Tsunade�s eyes widened in shock for a short moment.

Although the once terrifying boy from
the past had hit a growth spurt some time during his teens there was no doubt
that the Kazekage in front of her was Gaara. He now stood 190 centimetres over
the sea. His aquamarine green eyes still glowed dangerously and his flaming red
hair still spiked around his head. But the gourd he carried as a boy was no
longer present.

-
I have merged with Shukaku, he said as if he read her mind.

-
Oh� is that a good thing? she blurted out.
A small curt nod confirmed her question.

Then an uncomfortable silence fell over
them. Tsunade wasn�t sure what she was going to say. True, the boy still struck
fear in her, but she swallowed it. She refused to let it show. And then she
broke the silence.

-
So why are you here Gaara-sama?
He didn�t answer her and she realized
that his eyes no longer was on her, instead he was staring at the papers on her
table. She quickly began to roll them up but his hand came down with a loud
sound, stopping her from folding them into scrolls.

-
Kazekage-sama? she questioned.

-
What is the meaning of this? he snarled viciously.

-
What are you talking about?

-
THIS!! he held
up one of the papers that stated that Hinata now was the mother of Hikari.
But Tsunade wasn�t sure what he was
asking about. She just looked at him.

-
Who�s Hikari?
Now a light went up inside Tsunade�s
head. �How could I have been so blind..?� she thought as the obvious became very
obvious to her. Hinata had given up on Naruto because she had found someone
else. And that someone was Gaara. Well, this boy was going to feel a little bit
of agony for causing Hinata�s heart ache.

-
Hikari is Hinata�s daughter, said Tsunade and hid an evil grin.

-
W H A T??
roared Gaara, sand began to whirl around him.

-
Yes, Hinata-san wanted a child of her own, so she got one. Hikari-chan is
the cutest little girl in the whole village. She takes after her mother.
Gaara growled his sand was now moving
around the whole office and Tsunade began to suspect that she might have taken
the prank too far.

-
Where can I find Hinata? He asked, his eyes drilled their way deep inside
her soul.

-
Why do you want to know Gaara-sama?

-
Just answer me� Hokage-sama!
Tsunade nodded and scribbled down
Hinata�s address onto a note. But before she gave it to him.

-
Can you bring her these papers when you go and see her? I�m very busy
today, but if you could bring them to her I�ll be very grateful, smiled Tsunade
sweetly.
Her only answer was that he snatched the
papers out of her hand and then he was gone, leaving a dust cloud of sand
behind. She took a deep breath and then she began to laugh out loud. So loud
that Shizune came into the office.

-
Tsunade-sama?

-
Don�t worry Shizune-san, but I can bet you that we�ll have new couple
within a week here in Konoha. A couple that will shock everyone, said Tsunade.

-
Oh� who?

-
Hinata-san and Gaara of the Desert.

-
W-what?

-
Yep�. He�s on his way over to her now. Dear Gods in heaven� Hinata will
be so stunned, giggled Tsunade like a young girl. � The Kazekage of the Sand
village is here to find himself a wife. And that wife is Hinata-san. Man, this
will be the best thing I�ve witnessed since the death of Orochimaru!
Shizune began to suspect that her boss
had lost her mind. Gaara of the sand had no emotions and Hinata had no interests
in boys what so ever.

But Tsunade was sure. Gaara had it bad
for Hinata. Ohhh, so bad he had it!

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Hinata sat in her small herbal garden,
feeding Hikari her afternoon meal, when someone banged on her door hard. She
feared that her door would break under the hard knocks.

-
Come in!! she yelled as loud as she could in order not to scare Hikari.
Two seconds later Hinata was looking at
a tall man that glared at her with sea green eyes.

-
If you wanted a kid so badly�. why didn�t you ask me?? growled Gaara and
held out the papers to Hinata.

-
W-what?

-
I would have been more than willing to mate with you in order to give you
a baby.

-
G-Gaara-san??

-
So who�s the father?

-
F-father?

-
Don�t play stupid with me Hinata-san. Who�s the kid�s father? spat Gaara,
he could feel jealousy erupt inside his soul just thinking about Hinata sharing
her bed with another man.

-
I� I�

-
Answer me truthfully!!

-
I don�t know who he is, Gaara-san, whispered Hinata fearfully. She was
still in shock to see the man who had slipped into her heart and anchored
himself there. He stood there in front of her so tall and so proud� and very
angry for some reason.

-
So you just went out to get fucked by the first unknown guy you meet??
Are you crazy?!!
Now Hinata understood what he was
talking about and she blushed in humiliation. But when then his words came back
to her� �Why didn�t you ask me?� Her white eyes widened and she looked up
into his angry face.

-
G-Gaara-san, Hikari-chan is n-not biological daughter. T-these papers you
brought me are proof of that, whispered Hinata and held out the paper to Gaara
so he could take them again.
He grabbed them and his eyes skimmed
over them. As he did this he could see Hinata stand up and she put the baby
against her shoulder, gently patting its back and suddenly a small sound came
and Hinata smiled.

�She�s still unclaimed��
the thought rushed through his mind and he gave back the papers to her. He
stepped closer but she backed away and walked into the house, into the kitchen.
He followed her and on his way there he saw the glass cabinet, he saw the rose
he had created for her all those years ago. �She kept it?�

-
You kept it? he asked out loud.

-
Yes, of course. But I never did get to thank you for it Gaara-san, said
Hinata quietly.

-
It was my thanks to you Hinata-san.
Another silence. Hinata rocked Hikari in
her arms, making the little girl fall asleep and then she walked into her
bedroom. Gaara followed her and it made Hinata blush again. She never let anyone
into her bedroom. Not even her friends and now the man that haunted her wet
dreams was standing not two feet from her bed.

-
Hinata-san?

-
Y-yes?

-
Can I have you?

-
Huh�?? H-have me?

-
Yes, can I have you? asked Gaara again.
Hinata was at loss. She was not sure
what exactly he wanted. She turned her attention to Hikari who whimpered a bit
before settling back in her sleep again. Glad for the small interruption she
stepped away, taking the baby watcher with her to the kitchen. But she never got
that far, just outside the bedroom, Gaara grabbed her arm and pulled her around,
making her look into his face.

Gaara stopped Hinata, making sure that
she was looking into his eyes.

-
G-Gaara, she stuttered cutely.

-
Why can I not stop thinking about you? You came into my room that day,
you healed me with your own chakra, you talked to me� you sang to me� Why can I
not stop thinking about you? he said, almost as if he was talking to himself. �
You did your duty and yet I can not erase you from my mind.

-
I�m sorry, mumbled Hinata and broke the trance he held on her.

-
So�. can I have you?
Hinata�s face flushed red and she began
to stutter again.

-
W-why?

-
Do you have someone? Does the fox boy still have a place in your heart?

-
N-no� and no, answered Hinata truthfully to both questions.

-
Then answer my question!! He demanded and took a step closer, pushing
Hinata up against the wall.

-
And if I say no, what will happen? asked Hinata quietly, but her voice
never fluttered this time.

-
I will walk away and never come back, said Gaara, his eyes glowing in the
semi darkness of the hall. Her body was so soft against his and he had a hard
time not to push closer to her.

-
And if I say yes?? her voice was barely above hearing.

-
I will have you and I will never let anything come between us.
Hinata gasped lightly as her eyes locked
onto his. She was nowhere near used to hear declarations of love, but she was
sure that he just had declared his love for her.

-
What is your answer Hinata-san? he whispered harshly, his voice thick of
emotions.
Hinata began to tremble. She didn�t know
what to answer. Her body shouted yes, but her mind was not so sure.

-
G-Gaara-san, give me a day t-to think it over�please?
He nodded and released his grip around
her. He stepped away and let her go. He enhanced his smell just before she
disappeared and he inhaled deeply as if to make an imprint of her smell in his
memory.

-
I�ll come back tomorrow at the same time Hinata-san. And I will expect an
answer then!

-
Hai, Gaara-san.
He didn�t say good bye, he just
disappeared through the door. Hinata let out a small choked cry as she slid down
the wall, sitting down on the floor. �My life is a wasteland for years and
now everything comes back, hitting me in the face. I can not complain on having
a boring life now� can I?� she thought as she began to laugh, almost
hysterical.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Gaara felt his heart beat faster and
faster inside his chest. �What is this feeling? Am I afraid?� he asked
himself as he stopped, just outside Hinata�s door. He could hear her laugh, that
maniac of a laugh and he wondered slightly if she had gone insane. He took the
moment to look at the darkening sky. He heard a small gasp behind him and he
turned around and saw a pink haired girl. He recognized her as being one of
Naruto�s old team. He didn�t know her name though.

-
G-Gaara!! she stuttered.
He didn�t say anything, just watching
her.

-
W-what are you doing outside Hinata�s house? asked the kunoichi as she
drew a kunai and held it in front of her for protection.

-
What business is that of yours? he asked with an eerie cold voice.

-
I will call for the ANBU�s and the Hokage, she haspled out.

-
It was the Hokage who sent me here, said Gaara.

-
Oh� why?

-
Again, that is none of your business kunoichi-chan, purred Gaara and let
a small tornado of sand appear in front of the girl.
The girl screamed in terror and ran from
the place. Gaara snorted and let the sand fall back to the ground. He noticed
that the laughing had stopped. Should he be worried about it? He walked away
from the house and just before he rounded a corner he looked back and saw Hinata
stand in one of the windows. She was looking right at him. Her face was
un-readable. �Am I afraid?� he asked himself again before walking away.

He met Kankurou and Temari at the Inn
where they were staying. But Gaara would have given his soul to stay with Hinata
for the night. Temari looked a bit flushed and Gaara wanted to know what made
her look like that.

-
Temari-nee-chan? What is wrong?

-
She�s in luuuuuve, taunted Kankurou, earning himself a slap on the head
from his older sister.

-
I am not! snorted Temari.

-
Ohh, with whom? asked Gaara when he saw that Temari turned an even darker
shade of red. �Interesting colour��

-
Neji, he was here with Shikamaru and Sasuke. They were drinking in this
very bar, said Kankurou with a smug smile.

-
Neji?? As in Hyuuga, Neji?

-
Yep, that�s the one.

-
Am not! Ha, you are so wrong little brother, spat Temari. And it was the
truth. �It was not Neji; it was someone else I was looking at.�

-
You were practically drooling all over him.

-
Was not!

-
Was too!
�And these are my older siblings?�
thought Gaara and walked back to their rooms. He had no patience to listen to
their quarrels tonight. His heart was still beating rapidly and he couldn�t
escape the thought that it was actually fear he was feeling. Fear that Hinata
would turn him down. Could he actually step away from her, letting someone else
have her?

Gaara laid down on the bed, his hands
behind his head as he looked up onto the ceiling. �Hinata�.� He closed
his eyes. But he had not slept well since the night at the hospital when Hinata
was sitting by his side, guarding over him. A few hours later he heard Kankurou
and Temari come back, they were still arguing about Temari�s infatuation with
Neji. But Gaara suspected that it was not Neji that held his older sister�s
heart. It was the lazy Shikamaru. He had heard Temari talk in her sleep on
numerous occasions and Shikamaru�s name often came up. �You should stop
teasing nee-chan now or else she will beat the shit out of you aniki.�
Thought Gaara and sighed before turning his hearing off. He wanted peace and
quiet around him while feeling this strangely.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Hinata was awakened by the soft cries of
Hikari and she got up and picked up the girl in her arms. She made food for the
baby and once it was ready, she sat down in the garden. She looked up at the
starlit sky as she began to feed Hikari. �He wants me? But why�? Nobody wants
me� not even my own family wanted me, so why should he?� she asked the stars
as she felt the warm, night breeze. It was summer and she enjoyed sitting in the
garden at night while feeding Hikari. �He said he would give me a child if I
wanted one. He would willingly give me one, but that means�.� Hinata gasped
lightly when her dreams became a vivid memory. She saw herself in his arms.

Hinata�s stomach suddenly became a
trembling piece of jelly-o. Her cheeks flushed red and she felt incredible warm
inside her chest. Her breasts became heavy and it put more fuel to the fire
inside her chest. �Gods, this is the wrong time to get hot and bothered.� She
thought painfully embarrassed. But she couldn�t stop the images as they flashed
through her mind. And seeing how tall and handsome he had become over the years
did not make things better for her. His arms wrapped around her, his
legs between her thighs. Hinata closed her eyes, trying to will it away, but
she couldn�t. Instead she could see herself, dragging her fingers through his
wild, red hair. She wanted to drown in his oceanic, green eyes. �Gaara-kun��

An hour later she had put Hikari back to
bed and she sat down on her own. She was still aching with need and she took the
baby watched with her into the bathroom. She needed release or else she would
explode. It didn�t take her long to reach the peak and she moaned out his name
as her juices flowed over her fingers. She sat back against the wall; her body
was shaking with passion. �Gods, just by showing up he has turned me into a
slut.� she thought dreadfully once she came down from her orgasm.

With a body full of shame and
embaressment she went back to bed. She slid under the covers, hiding herself
almost completely. She had yet to decide if she dared to say yes to him in the
morning. But could she afford to say no? Could she risk it? What if she never�
�No, no, just go to sleep for now and think about it tomorrow.� she
closed her eyes, shutting down the tears that was threatening to fall otherwise.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Gaara stepped out of the bed when the
sun�s first rays peaked through his window. He went to the small restaurant that
the Inn had and ordered himself coffee. The maids in the kitchen were surprised
to see a customer up so early, but they did as they were asked. Soon he had a
fuming hot cup of coffee in front of him. �Today she will give me an answer.
Yes or No�� he sipped his coffee, trying to get the small burning pain to
make him think of other things, but it was futile. At the same time he saw
Hinata sit there in her garden, feeding that little kid. Hikari� He never
thought of kids until now. And he had burst out that she could have come to him
if she wanted one so badly. But if she had done that it would mean that he would
become a father. Gaara of the Desert, former vessel of the Shukaku, a father? He
snorted and imagined that if Kankurou could read his mind he would laugh at him.
Temari probably would choke on her own tongue. The thought itself was just
absurd. Gaara, being a father. He closed his eyes and rubbed the tattoo over his
left eye. He needed more coffee.

Not so very far from the Inn, Hinata
stepped out of her bed. She dragged her fingers through her hair and walked
slowly into the bathroom to clean up. She saw dark rings around her eyes and she
let out a disgusted laugh. Yeah right, she was the epitome of sexiness today.
She washed her face and brushed her teeth before she removed her pyjamas and
changed into a pair of jeans and a large black t-shirt that hid her features
pretty well. She wasn�t very keen on using a bra at home, it made her feel
constricted. In her youth she always wore chest bindings to keep those bouncing
mounds in check, but here in her own home it wasn�t necessary. It didn�t take
her long to make tea and breakfast. And then she became nervous again. She had
to decide what answer she would give Gaara.

As she filled more water into her teacup
she began to ponder. But she already knew the answer. Actually, there was
nothing to think about. She could never afford to loose a chance like this. She
would be a fool not to take it. She loved him, that was something she had come
to accept long ago. But was he safe? Could he be trusted? That was something she
had to find out before she gave him her answer. With a resolved face she put
away the dishes and went into the bedroom. Hikari lay there on her back, looking
up at the moving mobile with butterflies above the cradle.

Temari joined Gaara at the table. It
looked as if she hadn�t had much sleep either. She mumbled out an order of an
English breakfast and got it soon. Gaara looked at her and she asked him what he
was looking at.

-
Aniki was wrong about Neji, wasn�t he? asked Gaara quietly.

-
Yes, he was.

-
So, you like the lazy one ne?

-
W-what?

-
You don�t have to say anything, I already know about it, said Gaara and
waved a maid towards the table. He needed more coffee.

-
H-how? stuttered Temari with a faint blush on her cheeks.

-
You talk in your sleep nee-chan, said Gaara with a smirk, seeing the
blush deepen on her face.

-
Oh�

-
Don�t worry, I will not tell aniki about it. I�ve kept it a secret for
many years now.
Temari smiled weakly. She knew that she
could trust Gaara; he was not the one to go and talk around about other people.
She sipped her tea and then she looked at her brother again. Something was off
with him, but she couldn�t put her finger on what it was that was wrong with
him.

-
Gaara-chan, what is the matter? she asked softly when she saw the frown
deepen on his forehead.

-
Nothing nee-chan, answered Gaara all too quickly for Temari to know that
he was telling her the truth.

-
I know that something is troubling you and it is not the usual business
with the people in our town not wanting you to be the Kazekage.
Gaara sighed in defeat. In their youth,
Temari had been terrified around him, but since the fight with Naruto and then
the gentle care of Hinata, he had changed. He had become more� human. But he
showed it to very few people, his siblings being two, Naruto and Hinata the
other two. Now there was not much he could hide from his older sister. She
always took care of him, she had so even when he could have killed her and not
giving it a second thought.

-
I met Hinata-san yesterday, he said with a soft voice, barely above
whisper.

-
Oh, how was she? asked Temari. She would forever be grateful for the shy
and stuttering kunoichi for saving her brother all those years ago.

-
Fine I guess�. She�s a mother now, continued Gaara and looked down into
his coffee-mug.

-
A mother? Well� t-that was unexpected. So who is she married to?

-
Nobody.

-
Ehh?

-
Hikari-chan� was adopted by Hinata.
Silence�

Gaara was not sure if he should tell
Temari that he might become an instant father if Hinata said yes to his
question. He was not sure if he would be able to answer for the consequences if
she said no either. He wanted to be with her so badly it hurt.

-
So� what does that has to do with anything? asked Temari.

-
I asked Hinata if I� if I couldhaveher, he said quickly.

-
You did WHAT?? Gaara-chan, you didn�t use those particular words
did you??
Gaara nodded.

-
Oh fuck, Gaara-chan, that is no way to ask a woman to be your girlfriend,
sighed Temari.

-
How the hell should I know how to ask a female such things?? spat Gaara
undignified.

-
A woman wants to be swooned Gaara. They want to hear that they are
beautiful. They want to have flowers, roses and chocolate. They want to be sweet
talked.

-
I gave her a rose once.

-
Ehh?

-
A Desert Rose. I made her one before I left the hospital.
Temari was stunned but then she smiled.
Her brother did have something in him. Now she began to suspect why he had been
so quiet when they had left the hospital that morning. He had just not left a
rose with Hinata; he had left his heart with her as well. �My little brother�
in love� � she mused silently.

-
So�. why are you so uptight this morning?

-
She will give me an answer today, sometime during the afternoon, said
Gaara as he gulped the down the last of his coffee.

-
I wish you all the luck in the world little brother, said Temari and got
up and hugged Gaara from behind. He stiffened but then he relaxed. She kissed
his head before heading back to the room
�Thank you nee-chan.�
he thought and smiled before he slipped his hard mask back on again.

-_ -+- _ -+- _ -+- _ -

Hikari made sure that her mother
wouldn�t have a quiet time for the rest of the day. The little girl refused to
go to sleep when she should have. She made all kind of sounds and Hinata sighed
in the end. The day proved to be a very hot one and she decided it was time to
take a bath. She filled her bathtub with water and then she descended down with
Hikari in her arms. The little light of her life was having a great time in the
tub, splashing around happily. The girl was squealing so delightful that Hinata
never heard the knock on her front door, nor did she hear it open.

Hinata picked up her daughter and dried
them both with a large towel before slipping one around her body. She was walked
out of the bathroom and across the hall when she stiffened up. She spun around
and saw Gaara standing there with his mouth slightly opened. Ohh, the
humiliation. Hinata ran into her bedroom and closed the door behind her. She
leaned against the door, closing her eyes, trying to will her raging body down a
bit.

Gaara had never seen so much female
flesh in his life. Not in reality. His brother, being the kind and perverted
puppeteer he was, had given Gaara tons of dirty magazines, but Gaara just threw
them away. He had flipped through the pages of the first one, but cast it away
when he realized that the only female he wanted to see that much flesh of was
Hinata. And now he had seen creamy thighs and arms. His male member began to
twitch and come to life as his mind replayed the scene over and over. And the
smell that now filled the hallway where he was standing, it was like an
exquisite perfume. He enhanced his hearing and suddenly his ears were filled
with her light panting and racing heart beats. That along with the smell that
was Hinata added up to just one thing. Hinata was excited. She was in need. He
growled passionately and walked silently up to her bedroom door. He remembered
how her bed looked, all neat and tidy. He could easily imagine how the bed would
look after a night of love making. �Hinata-chan�� his mind called out her
name.

He pressed his ear against her door and
he could tell that she was resting her back against it. Knowing that she was
practically naked behind it put Gaara into an almost feral mode. He pushed his
hardening member against the door, rubbing up and down to relieve some of the
ache that was building up inside his groins.

-
Hinata-chan, open this door, he snarled viciously.

-
G-Gaara-kun� w-what are y-you d-doing here? she stuttered and he could
feel her turn around, placing her hands on the door as if to keep him out. He
wouldn�t have it. He had to be close to her. Years of being apart was clawing at
his soul at the moment.

-
Your answer Hinata-chan� Give me your answer!

-
C-could y-you just w-wait until I�m dressed?
Gaara growled. He couldn�t wait. He
wanted her to answer now. His sand easily broke the lock on the bedroom door and
he forced himself inside. His body was shaking with desire and lust. He saw her
cradle Hikari close to her chest and for a short moment, Gaara was very jealous.
He wanted to be that close to Hinata too. He stepped up to Hinata, who was
sitting on the edge of her bed.

-
Give me Hikari-chan, he asked.

-
G-Gaara-kun?

-
I�ll put her to bed, and then we�ll have our little talk, said Gaara with
restrained voice.
He held out his hands but when Hinata
seemed reluctant to give her to him he took a deep breath, willing his body down
a bit. He stepped closer and gently pried the baby from her. Hikari looked at
the new figure with her white eyes, but she didn�t make a sound. She just looked
at him curiously. He winked at the baby as if he wanted to tell her that
everything was just fine. The little girl made a happy sound and placed her in
the cradle and then made the mobile above spin around in a slow pace.

-
Hikari-chan, go to sleep now, he whispered so softly that Hinata barely
heard his words.
His actions with Hikari had proved one
thing to Hinata. He could be trusted with Hikari. She could feel the tension and
the heat roll off him in waves, this she felt without using her Byakugan. And
yet he was able to take care of the little girl without scaring her. That was
enough proof for the former Hyuuga-heir. She heard him speak softly as his hands
made some seals and soon the little girl was sleeping. He had put her to sleep.
He straightened his back and then turned around to look at the trembling, half
naked Hinata.

-
Hinata-chan, the kitchen � Now! he demanded.

-
J-just l-let me d-dress.

-
No� Go� Now!

-
G-Gaara-kun?

-
Please? he snarled.
She nodded and darted for the door,
running down the hall and to the kitchen. Gaara was just behind her.

Hinata wanted to disappear through the
floor when she was turned around so she was facing the sand ninja. His eyes
glowed heatedly as his eyes skimmed over her half naked form. His arms went
around her waist, pulling her close to him. She began to tremble again, not
knowing how to act or behave in front of him.

-
Hinata-chan, look at me� please?

-
Gaara�

-
Tell me your answer�

-
Yes.
Gaara heard the word and knew that she
was letting him have her. She said yes to him. His arms tightened around her
form, lifting her up and he walked over to the kitchen sink, placing her on it,
making her come up to the same height as him. He put his hands on her face,
cupping her cheeks, gently stroking his thumbs over her peachy soft skin.

-
Hinata-chan, are you sure.
Hinata nodded and blushed prettily
again. But yelped a bit when he buried his face into her neck.

�She said yes� she said yes� �
he ranted it through his mind like a mantra. His soul was crying in happiness,
his heart was beating fast inside his chest. And with her answer came an even
bigger thing. He was going to be an instant dad. He moved away from her warm
skin and he looked into her white eyes, seeing tears shine in them.

-
Hinata-chan? he questioned.

-
Gaara-kun, I�m happy. You make me happy. I have wanted to be with you for
so long�. I can�t believe that you are here with me, she whispered as her hands
moved from his shoulders to his neck, to his face.

-
You wanted to be with me?

-
Y-yes�. I j-just wanted to make sure that you were� trustworthy. And that
was something you showed just now when y-you put Hikari-chan to sleep.
Gaara couldn�t help it. A god honest
smile cracked his face into two and he laughed softly. He hugged the little
kunoichi and he could feel his member spring to life again. All that naked skin
was beginning to tear down his iron will and he let his hands move down her
back, easily disposing of the towel she was wearing around her body.

Hinata drew in her breath as the air
brushed over her now naked body. She knew she should be embarrassed but somehow
she couldn�t find it in her to blush like that right now. Instead of feeling
shy, she felt very bold. And that was something new to her. She could see her
hand travel down his outfit, unbutton as she came lower. Before she knew it, she
had him undressed, top part anyway and she leaned back a bit to take in his bare
chest. He had kept himself in shape even though he was a long range type of
ninja. In his youth he seldom get into hand to hand combat. It was only Rock Lee
and Naruto that had gotten to him. Kimimaro had landed one or two punch on him,
but that was all. But he must have trained to keep this body like this. �He�s
beautiful.� she thought as her fingers traced the muscles of his abs. She
heard him suck in his breath as her fingers came down to the waistband of his
baggy, burgundy trousers.

Gaara parted her legs a bit, placing
himself in between. His hands moved to lie on her thighs and he let Hinata
undress him. He didn�t want to rush things even though his teenaged body was
screaming to ravage her on the spot. But he promised himself right there and
then, he wouldn�t force her. He would let her have the control, at least for the
time being. Her soft fingers moved over his stomach down to his trousers and he
gasped in pleasure as he felt his cock grow even harder just thinking about how
it would feel to be touched by her. He closed his eyes when he felt her fingers
hook onto the hem of his pants and then she pulled them down. His erection
sprang free from its confinements and he heard her light shriek. He looked down
and saw his member stand tall and proud. He wondered what had caused her to
sound like that, was she afraid?

-
Hinata? He asked in worry.

-
Y-you a-are k-kind of b-big�, she stuttered and now her blush came back
tenfold.

-
Big?
Hinata nodded. During her time at the
hospital she had seen many men naked, but Gaara� he kind of stood out a bit.
Even though she knew that a penis in the erect state was larger than in its
flaccid mode, but he still was big. Fear seeped into her mind as she realized
that if they were to have intercourse, that thing was going inside her.

Gaara knew that he had to make her less
tense if this was going to work at all. He took her right hand and placed it on
his cock. He felt her hesitate and he made her grip him a little bit more
firmly.

-
Just touch me Hinata-chan. It will not bite you, he assured her with a
soft smile.

-
It�s warm? Hard and yet� soft skin�

-
F-feels nice Hinata-chan, he growled.

-
It does?
The curiosity was back in Hinata and she
moved her other hand to explore the new territory. She felt him push into her
hands and she got the hint quickly. She moved her hands up and down his nine
inch shaft, hearing him moan in pleasure. His hands went up to hold her
shoulders as he thrust into her palms. She heard him say that it felt good and
it made her feel good too. In fact, just hearing his voice thick of lust and
desire made her wet between her legs.

Gaara couldn�t take it anymore. Her
gentle fingers, her shy curiosity made him snap. He pulled her hands away from
his throbbing shaft and he held her wrists tightly. He looked into her confused
face and he smirked.

-
My turn Hinata-chan, he whispered huskily. � Don�t move your hands from
the sink.
She nodded and rested back on her hands.
She blushed when he parted her legs a bit more, leaving her vulnerable for his
gaze. She tried to close up, but he just shook his head and she stopped her
attempts. She let out a hissing sound when she felt his lips on her right
breast. He began to suckle it as if he was a baby and she couldn�t help but put
a hand on the back of his head, pushing him closer. But he grabbed her wrist
again and placed it back on the sink.

-
Don�t move your hands! He ordered again.
Hinata mewled but nodded. But she didn�t
trust herself not to do it again. Gods, he was turning her world upside down at
the moment. Yesterday morning she had thought that she would be a single mother
for the rest of her life and now she was in the middle of some heavy petting.
The gods of fate sure had strange ways to telling you that you should not always
think so much.

His fingers moved to her wet centre and
he parted her nether lips. He could hear her nails rake against the metal of the
sink and he purred into her soft flesh. With a gentleness he never knew he
possessed, he pushed a finger into that wet hole he found. Just feeling her
inner walls suck him deeper inside made him understand why she felt fear when
she saw his cock. How the hell was he supposed to fit here? But his perverted
brother�s lessons came back to him. God, he hated it when Kankurou would preach
about making sure that the female was wet enough, excited enough to take on a
man. If she was a virgin, you should do your best to stretch her. And it was
done by your fingers. Gaara blushed a bit as he switched nipples in his mouth.
�I�ll thank him later.�

Hinata let out a small scream of
pleasure when she felt his finger began to move in and out of her soaking
womanhood. Her hips moved with him, wanting to feel more of him. And when he
added a second finger her back arched, her head fell back. His lips left her
breast and she could feel that he was looking intensely at her.

Gaara was about to explode when he saw
her climax around his two fingers. Her juices flowed from her and he pulled
away. He looked at his digits, glistening with her honey and he put them to his
mouth for a taste. He growled softly as her feminine taste moved over every
taste bud on his tongue. Once he had take her he would taste her more properly
he decided.

-
Hinata� are you ready? he asked her, wanting to make sure that she hadn�t
changed her mind.
She opened her eyes and she drowned in
his aquamarine pools. She nodded. She was sure. She wanted this, she needed
this. She had dreamt about him for so long and she wasn�t going to back down
now. He grabbed her hips, pulling further towards the edge of the sink. Her legs
went around his waist and she gasped lightly as his hot and pulsating cock
brushed over her moist sex.

The tip of his cock found the entrance
to her soaking pussy and he pushed forward, penetrating her hole. With a gentle
thrust forward he soon was buried deep inside her body. She cried out in pain,
but when he looked at her she just shook her head, mumbling something about not
feeling any pain, just discomfort. So he held still, his hands moved to her
luscious behind, grabbing hold of the soft flesh as he waited for her to adjust
to his size. He felt her rock forward and he took it as a sign that she was
ready and he pulled back a bit, growling softly as her inner walls massaged his
rod. �And this I have gone without all these years?� he asked himself as
he pushed inside her again. This was pure heaven. He should have returned years
ago. He held her tight against him as his pelvis moved in the ancient movement.
He could feel her arms go around his torso, her face buried in his neck. He
heard her soft cries of pleasure as he moved a little faster.

Hinata sobbed as her face was buried in
his neck. She didn�t know what else to do. The feelings he created inside her
was so intense that she felt as if she was to explode, implode, burn to atoms.
Her nails raked down his back, making him growl in response. She then grabbed
hold of his flaming red hair and she tilted her head back a bit, looking into
his pleasure filled face. Without any warning, she pressed her lips against hiss
and kissed him passionately.

Gaara was a bit caught off guard by the
kiss. Kissing was new to him but he followed his instincts and her guidance and
soon he found himself wanting to devour her mouth. His right hand came up and
grabbed hold of her hair, holding her head in place as he soon knew how to kiss.
He noticed that he began to pick up the pace; the friction against his cock was
making him want to go faster. So he moved faster. In and out, in and out. He
heard her cry out his name and she griped his shaft with her inner walls, almost
pulling him back inside as he pulled out. He happily complied and then she threw
her head back, letting out a silent scream. Gaara felt his seed spurt deep into
her as her legs held him against her, refusing to let go of him. He tilted her
head back and he caught her lips in a much softer kiss. Once he released her
lips he looked at her. They smiled at each other but unfortunately their moments
were disturbed when Hinata heard Hikari�s voice through the baby watcher.

-
Light sleeper? Asked Gaara as he pulled out of Hinata�s wet warmth.

-
Y-yeah, mumbled Hinata and blushed. But he could see the little smile
that played on her lips.

-
So�?

-
Want to stay with me? asked Hinata.
Gaara nodded and together they walked to
the bedroom to take care of Hikari. Once the girl was sleeping again Gaara laid
down next to Hinata on her bed. He cuddled close to her, just basking in her
sunny warmth. She was his now and he had vowed that nothing would come between
them.

-
Ne Gaara?

-
Mmm?

-
Why did you come here?

-
I wanted you.

-
Oh�

-
Tomorrow I�ll introduce you properly to my sister and brother and then
I�ll make the Hokage perform a ceremony for us.

-
C-ceremony?

-
I want to make you an honest woman. You�ll be my wife Hinata-chan, purred
Gaara and pushed his face against her neck, taking in her scent again.

-
Oh�

-
Does this bother you?

-
No� I�m glad� Hikari-chan gets to have a father.
Gaara smiled softly. Yeah, the little
critter would have a father. He still regretted that he hadn�t returned earlier
to claim Hinata as his own. But at the same time, if he had returned� he might
not have gotten to know Hikari� And that was something he didn�t regret. He
could easily love the baby girl as his own. Even inside a monster lives a good
hearted soul. All it took was a soft touch and a gentle voice.

THE END!!!
