~*~* 8 *~*~
There was something odd
with that Sunday Neji decided as he followed Hinata back to her apartment. They
had been with the Sand siblings the better part of the day. A time spent on
discussions and quiz-shows. A day when he caught a glimpse of the old Hinata as
she were when she was in love with Naruto. The only problem was that Neji
couldn’t figure out which of the two brothers had caught her interest. He didn’t
know which one that would be worse either. Gaara was a homicidal maniac if you
asked Neji and Kankurou was a down right pervert in league with Jiraiya and
Kakashi. It boiled inside the Hyuuga-genius when he saw the kabuki-painted ninja
reach for Hinata’s behind, but before he could reach it he was slapped over the
head by a giant fan. Neji was glad for Temari’s quick action to dismiss the
hentai hands of Kankurou.
Temari had seemed to be
embarrassed how her brothers acted and whacked them both over the heads time and
time again, even Gaara. That was something that amazed Neji a bit. Because when
he had seen them years back, there had been much fear in her. Fear for Gaara and
his powers. Kankurou had been afraid too, but now they battered around just like
sibling usually did. And Gaara didn’t kill his older sister for hitting his
head. Shocking as that was Neji was more concerned about those strange
fluttering emotions that moved around in his stomach every time he looked at the
blonde bomb shell. ‘For crying out loud, I thought I was gay!’ he
mentally berated himself and dragged his fingers through his hair, which drew
Hinata’s attention to his actions.
“Neji-niisan? Is
something wrong?” she asked gently and looked at him with concern in her pale
eyes.
“No, no… I just… I was
just thinking that’s all Hinata-sama,” mumbled Neji and fought a blush that
threatened to break loose all over his face. He had accepted that women was not
his thing and here came this hot blooded woman from the Sand village and rocked
his beliefs right at the core. He didn’t like it. If changes were going to
happen, he wanted them to go slowly; not hit like a god damn earthquake.
“Neji-niisan, you can not
fool me, but I will not press you on the matter,” said Hinata and smiled gently.
“But do not take me for a fool, because I can see that there is something that
is bothering you. And I will listen the day you choose to speak.”
“Thank you Hinata-sama,
and forgive me please. I have just realized something and I think it will take
me some time to gather it in something that I can comprehend myself,” said Neji
and returned the soft smile Hinata gave him. As of lately he could never hide
anything from her. She always saw what was underneath his cool mask. No, he
didn’t take her for a fool, not any more he didn’t.
“Do you think Naruto-kun
is happy with Uchiha-san?” asked Hinata and stopped next to her apartment door.
She looked at the sky as if to find some answers there as well.
“Yes, I believe he’s very
happy with Uchiha-san, they have been looking at each other for a long time. I’m
only surprised that it took them this long to get together.”
“Thank you for walking me
home Neji-niisan. And don’t be afraid to ask me if you ever need any help,” said
Hinata and unlocked the door.
“Thank you Hinata-sama, I
will not forget your words,” answered Neji and bowed slightly to his cousin
before she closed the door behind her. He walked towards his own home, thinking
about that blue eyed, blonde, busty and bossy woman named Temari.
~*~*~*~*~
Tsunade sat outside the
chakra-absorbing bars and looked at the pacing, pink-haired young woman. Haruno,
Sakura had been labelled insane and was not to be released until the Hokage
thought the young woman had been cured from what ever mental illness she was
suffering from. Sakura’s green eyes were flashing as she made a futile attack
against the special made bars, only to be forced back again.
“Sakura-san, you will not
get out of here no matter how you try,” said Tsunade and watched with sorrow how
the young woman growled and began to rant about disgusting love and stupid,
idiotic morons that never should have been born.
“My Sasuke will come and
save me. He just has to realize that the bastard only using genjutsu to make him
believe that he’s in love with that freaky bastard,” ranted Sakura madly and
laughed hysterical.
“Sakura-san, you can not
accept it, can you? You have been following Sasuke-kun for so long that you
believe that it will be you two in the end. But it will never happen, why can
you not let that little piece of information get through your insanity?” sighed
Tsunade as she got up and sent Sakura one more look.
“Because I love
Sasuke-kun, he will be mine and he will love me and I will help him restore his
family. He loves me, he just…. He just have to get rid of that monster first
before he can come and rescue me from you people!!” beamed Sakura.
“If that is what you
believe Sakura-san, then you will be in here for a very long time,” said Tsunade
with sorrow in her voice and walked out of the room, turning to the ANBU-guard,
telling him that nobody but her, Kakashi and Iruka was allowed to come in here.
“Tsunade-sama, he will
come for me, you see – HE WILL COME FOR ME… YOU HEAR ME TSUNADE-SAMA!!”
yelled Sakura frantically and grabbed the bars only to be drained from power
again and she sunk down on her knees, laughing and crying all at the same time.
Tsunade looked at her
watch, she couldn’t believe that she had been up since six this morning and for
what? Trying to get an insane person sane again? And she feared that in this
case, the insane person would stay insane. Sakura had lost the battle against
the mental illness and now lived in her own happy little place, thinking that
Sasuke would come and rescue her from the evil people that sided with Naruto.
“Tsunade-sama? Are you
ok?” asked Shizune when she saw the frown on her friend and leader.
“Ahh, just a bit tired.
What time was the meeting with the Kazekage again?” asked Tsunade and rubbed her
temples, trying to rid herself from the oncoming head ache.
“Three o’clock,
Tsunade-sama. But are you sure you are ok?” the black haired woman asked again
in concern.
“Yes, I just realized
that what ever mental illness Sakura-san is suffering from, I am not sure we can
cure her,” sighed the big busted Hokage and began to flip with the alliance
papers she would go over with the Kazekage. “Shizune-san, can you please get me
a cup of tea?”
“Of course Tsunade-sama.”
Shizune left and came
back moments later with a cup of tea to her friend. Tsunade had been troubled
since the day when Naruto and Sasuke had returned from their latest mission. The
two getting together had been something that Tsunade put above else and Shizune
could understand that. Naruto was like a son to Tsunade. The Hokage had lost the
love of her life, she had lost her little brother. Now she had set out to
protect Naruto against all evil forces, and Shizune had heard the soft promise
Tsunade made to herself. Tsunade would give her life in order to keep her “son”
safe.
‘You have a lot on
your shoulders now Tsunade-sama, but don’t forget that I always will be here for
you to catch you if you fall.’
Thought the dark eyed woman and closed the door behind her to leave the Hokage
to go over the papers again.
~*~*~*~*~
* Monday Morning *
Naruto moaned in protest
when someone tried to shake him to life. He had no desire to get up yet. He had
dreamt about green fields and large forests. A sense of freedom lingered in his
soul and he suspected that this was one of those shared dreams he had with
Kyuubi. The female fox sometimes shared her dreams with her young host, dreams
of freedom so he would not feel trapped in a cage like she was.
“Dobe, get up or else
we’ll be late for the meeting with Hokage-sama,” said Sasuke with soft voice as
he tried to get his lover to wake up.
“Don’t want to get up…,”
mumbled Naruto as he caught his arm around Sasuke’s and pulled the raven haired
boy down to hug him. “Wanna stay in bed with you koibito..,”
“I know, I would love to
stay in bed too, my little fox, but we can’t. We need to get to the Hokage and
receive new orders,” said Sasuke as he brushed his lips over Naruto’s.
The kiss turned from
chaste to heated in matter of seconds and soon they were wrapped around each
other just as they had during the night. But Sasuke only let himself indulge in
the passion for a few moments before grabbing Naruto’s wrists and pulled them
both up.
“Shower now dobe,” he
ordered and tried not to smile when he saw his adorable lover pout like a young
boy.
Naruto dragged himself
out of the bed and walked into the bathroom, he would love to have Sasuke with
him, but if he were to join the blonde, they would not get to the Hokage in
time. Naruto sighed and turned on the water.
~*~*~*~*~
Tsunade saw the two
young men come through the door to her office and she held back a smile when she
saw the happiness in Naruto’s shining blue eyes. They were late and she told
them so.
“Hokage-sama, what are
Sand ninjas doing here?” asked Sasuke when he saw the three siblings from the
hidden village of Sand. His eyes narrowed a bit when his black eyes fell on
Gaara. The red haired youth looked murderous but then he saw something that
stunned him beyond anything.
Gaara was holding his
sister’s hand in a tight grip. ‘He looks just like… like… Like a boy who
seeks comfort in an older sibling…’ thought Uchiha as he watched the strange
thing displayed before his eyes. He then turned to look at the Hokage. Her hazel
brown eyes were amused by something and he felt a blush spread across his face.
A quick glance at Naruto told him that his blonde lover too felt a bit uneasy
with her amusement.
“Although you are late
today, it does not matter, because there will be no more missions for the two of
you for a while,” Tsunade began and caught an angry look from Naruto. “But, you
will have to help Kazekage-sama and his siblings to find a place to live while
they’re here in Konoha. During our meeting yesterday, the Kazekage and I struck
a deal that we will share information in order to strengthen our bonds. And
later I will take a few of you with me and stay and their village.”
“Ehh, Gaara’s going to
stay here? Is he safe?” Naruto blurted out and got an evil glare from Temari and
he yelped and bowed in humble as he apologized.
“The Kazekage has
informed that he has his powers under control and I don’t want to hear anything
more about it. If any citizen out there begins to talk and you hear them, set
them straight. Have I made my self clear?”
“Yes, Hokage-sama,” said
both Naruto and Sasuke and bowed to the charismatic, female sennin.
“Good, now I trust that
you two will find suitable quarters for them. Dismissed.”
The five left the office
and the Hokage tower. Silence brewed between them and none wanted to be the
first to speak. But in the end, the one to break the silence was Kankurou. He
smiled and his face was distorted in a grim look.
“I’m hungry, where to go
to get a descent breakfast?” he asked and adjusted the puppet on his back.
“Ichiraku’s ramen
stand!!” almost yelled Naruto.
“Dobe, that’s not
breakfast food,” said Sasuke and swapped his hand over Naruto’s head, only to
let his fingers rest at the nape of his neck to play with those soft blonde
strands.
Naruto glanced at Sasuke
and shyly put his arm around Sasuke’s waist to hold him closer to his body. The
motion did not go unnoticed.
Gaara growled when the
boys began to openly show their affection for each other. Again he could feel
the jealousy of such happiness course through his soul and he wanted nothing
more than to tear them apart. Why could he not have that special someone too?
But instead he was drowned in sisterly love and he felt the warmth of Temari’s
hand comfort him, but just a bit.
“So, where do we go
then?” asked Kankurou again and frowned when he saw his younger brother in such
distress. He didn’t like it. ‘Actually, what the pipsqueak need is a good
woman and a good fuck to get him through this pubertal stage of his life.’
thought the puppet master and clenched his fists slightly. He really wanted his
brother to find someone that could understand him. And then it struck him that
the only that had seemed to get through to his brother was that tiny woman they
met yesterday. Hinata… yeah, Hinata that was her name. She smiled at his brother
and her smiles didn’t have that ironic or disgusted quirk. Immediately
Kankurou’s brain began to plot on how to set those two up on a date. He got a
sour look from Temari and he grinned to hide his plans, although he would have
to involve Temari in them later. Because Gaara would never listen to him, but he
did listen to his nee-chan. ‘You will never know what hit you dear little
brother, not until you are in the middle of it and can not escape.’
~*~*~*~*~
There, two chapters in two days...
Hope this will satisfy you for the rest of the weekend.
Well, I'm off to do some major Temari/Kankurou matchmaking
game for Gaara.
*evil laughs..*
*hmm, what kind of scenario to use to set Gaara and Hinata up
with?*
