There was no way to describe Sasuke's current anger over such an incident. He was frustrated with both Gaara and Naruto. Naruto of course he was mad with, for being afraid of a stupid snake that probably snuck in through the open window when he wasn't looking and consoling Gaara for comfort. Gaara however struck his anger in a different way; he was simply mooching off his friendship with the blond. It was certainly miraculous how close the two have gotten in a few days when it took years for Sasuke and Naruto to finally acknowledge they had a real friendship.

He stumped into the kitchen, paying no mind to the other two sand nin in the room. As far as Sasuke's anger went, Temari and Kankuro were both included since they were merely related to the demon that was crushing everything he tried so hard to build. Sasuke couldn't wait for Naruto to hurry up and get dress for they could leave this crazy place and all its caretakers. Kankuro smirked as he witnessed how easily Sasuke was letting this get to him.

Being that he was Kankuro's older brother, he was of course going to vouch for and support Gaara no matter what. And if Sasuke so happened to get in the way, he would just have to take care of him. For the moment it was obvious Naruto and Gaara would need more time for themselves, so that meant getting Sasuke to let the blond stay longer. Kankuro walked over to Sasuke and tapped him on the shoulder. "You should really calm down." He advised with a mischievous grin. "After all you'll be able to leave Suna soon enough. Tsunade sent a message last night and she should be here tomorrow evening if we are lucky." Kankuro explained, though more of lied.

Sasuke lifted his head to face the older male, and stared at him skeptically. He wouldn't be able to prove that he was lying since he wasn't here last night when they got the supposed message. Kankuro continued after seeing Sasuke's attention on him. "So instead of bothering to walk all the way back to you Inn and end up walking back up here to meet her, why don't you two just stay here until she arrives?" Kankuro offered. "We should have enough guest rooms here and the meals are more in reach than going out to find food." Kankuro knew Sasuke couldn’t dare object because if he merely mentioned this to Naruto the blond would be countless arguing with Sasuke over it.

Temari rose a suspicious brow as her brother spoke. She knew for a fact they didn't get any letter from Tsunade. "I guess we could stay longer." Sasuke finally grumbled in obvious difficulty. Temari smiled genuinely at the thought of Kankuro's plan. With a few nights here Gaara and Naruto were bound to get closer. She left the room the next moment to inform the others of this new decision. Gaara is sure to be thrilled.

Gaara lead Naruto back to his room, his face still consumed in a fiery blush. "My clothes might be a little big on you..." Gaara murmured weakly as he walked over to his closet. Naruto was so short even compared to Gaara, but he was sure they had about the same figure. He watched Naruto sit on his bed from out the corner of his eye. It was rather annoying to think the blond was still soaking wet and sitting butt naked on his sheets, not that he actually used them anyway. And yet he wished he was able to use them more often now.

He rummaged through his belongings in search of clothing that wouldn't hang completely off of Naruto's shoulders or hips. "Gaara?" The blond spoke, suddenly making Gaara shudder with nervousness. He didn't want to be rude and not face Naruto when he spoke to him, but he didn't want to seem like a pervert and look at Naruto anyway, so he continued in his search of clothing. "A-are you feeling any better?" Naruto asked in a soft mutter. The thought had been plaguing him all morning and so he couldn't keep himself from asking when they were finally alone again.

Gaara's shoulders slouched at the question. He didn't wish to answer something that was so perplexing. In truth the aches and sickness were never strong during the day, most of the time he didn't feel them at all. But at night they were unrelenting. It was simply irritating to know that he could not sleep to take his mind off of the pain. He could only recall once when he wasn't taunted by the mysterious illness...the night he laid next to Naruto. He supposed it was just mocking him for his love of the boy, or that his mind was truly at peace whenever he was near Naruto so he had never noticed, but both ideas sounded ridiculous. "Uh...yeah..." Gaara answered bashfully.

Naruto's brows knitted together with disappointment. He knew Gaara had to be lying. You couldn't get better over night like that. "That's good. I thought you had broke a lung or something when you were coughing up blood." He chuckled, though he felt this was no laughing matter. Gaara hesitated before grabbing an article of clothing he had been looking for. He was in disbelief that Naruto could even pretend to be okay with this. Though the blonde's voice had been amused he could tell the mockery and frustration within the joke.

"Listen Naruto..." Gaara sighed, pulling out a shirt he knew Naruto could fit out of the closet. He turned a faced the blond, handing him the garment. But it was then he realized it would have been better to grab a pair of underwear for Naruto first. He watched with mild embarrassment as Naruto quickly pulled the shirt over his head; he damp, perk nipples begging to be sucked before disappearing beneath the black fabric. Gaara shock his head to rid him of such thoughts. "I-I don't mean to be rude, but this has nothing to do with you. I'm fine really. He only happens occasionally, so I guarantee you its not the same illness that has caught everyone else."

"But we can't be too sure Gaara." Naruto insisted. "What if it is? It would be better to take the precautions and be wrong than do nothing and be right." He choked out. "I just can't stand thinking that you could die suddenly like the rest of the villagers..." Gaara's heart skipped a beat at hearing his boyfriend's sorrowful tone and seeing such melancholy eyes. Naruto was really worried about him, and he felt wrong for even thinking Naruto could have cared for Sasuke a while ago.

Gaara kneeled down to Naruto's level and placed both hands on the blonde's shoulders. "I promise you I'm not going anywhere. I'm not going to die from this. So please stop worrying about me, there are others that are worse off than me." Naruto smiled meekly and nodded. Gaara was surprised to have the other pounce into his arms the next second. But who was he to say that he didn’t like having Naruto's arms around his neck or his thin form pressed against him. Of course it had proved to be intimidating when Gaara could feel Naruto's manhood pressing flat against his chest. He merely forced the thoughts away and returned the embrace just as gently as it was given.

"Hey Gaara! Good n-" Temari stood within Gaara's doorway with a look of complete astonishment. She would it was her own fault for not knocking before barging in. She watched Gaara pull from Naruto almost immediately upon her arrival. Naturally Gaara took the liberty of standing in front of Naruto when he noticed Temari was able to see his naked lower half. "Don't worry Gaara." She chuckled suddenly. "I've seen my share of cocks living with two brothers." She teased. It was so amusing to see how quickly both their faces turned to red. "But don't worry, I'll be sure to keep this a little secret. We mustn't have Mr. grumpy puss downstairs to know what you two were up two."

"Temari!" Gaara growled. "What do you want?!" Just mentioning Sasuke to Gaara right now made the teenager's blood boil.

"I just thought I would tell you Sasuke decided you two should stay here until Tsunade arrives. I'll sent Kakashi to receive your belongings. But until then, you might as well dress for bed. I'm not letting you guys out again today." Temari suddenly hissed. She be damned if she let Gaara get into any more trouble for leaving unannounced. "Oh, Gaara should have some pajamas to lend you Naruto. Kami knows he never put them to good use." She explained with a smile. Gaara made a sort of cat-like groan at this statement. "You might won't to change out of those damp clothes too Gaara." She mentioned with a giggle. "Now I leave you two back to your fondling. Just don't get to carried away, these walls aren't actually made of the thickest material." Temari winked casually before closing the door behind her.

"What did she mean Gaara?" Naruto asked, turning back to the red head with bewilderment. "Why don't you use your pajamas?" Naruto asked.

Gaara grunted angrily. He would have to punish Temari later for bring it up. Sure Naruto battled him when he was controlled by Shukaku, but that didn’t mean the blond understand the extent of his insomnia. He had to think of some excuse since he was not exactly ready to let Naruto know about it. No doubt Naruto would worry about him 24/7 if he told him. "Oh, uh...I...I-normally sleep in the nude!" Gaara answered quickly. Gaara slapped his hands over his mouth the very second he realized he had said such a stupid thing. Why did he say that? Now Naruto was sure to think he was a freak!

Naruto stared at him with baffling, blue eyes as his cheeks flushed slowly. Damn it, now that Gaara had said it his mind automatically tried to imagine it. "Oh." Naruto whispered in a tiny voice, his head falling timidly. It would certainly explain Temari's statement about having seen both her brother's naked before.

"Well, uh, let's just get you my pajamas." Gaara added nervously, nearly running back to the closet. He's being so stupid! He should have just told the truth. ANYTHING would have been better than to have Naruto think he was some sort of pervert! Without much thought, Gaara jerked the clothing from the hanger and tossed it over to Naruto. At the moment he couldn't even care that he had given the blond his most embarrassing pair of pajamas. Naruto stared at them with fascination; red cotton pajamas with little raccoons printed all over them. "Temari bought them for me as a joke..." Gaara mumbled finally when he noticed Naruto's surprise. This was not turning out to be a good day for him.

The rest of the day was fairly tolerable. Sure lunch had been hell all because Naruto refused to take any chances of being starved again, so ate until his he had thrown up. Obviously Gaara and Sasuke fought over the position of who would be the one to sooth the sick blond; Gaara won. That was only because Temari had asked Sasuke to help her put away the dishes, and being the polite guest he was he had to accept. The rest of the day was spent with Sasuke bugging Naruto about wearing such childish pajamas around, which angered both Temari and Gaara. If that didn't prove to be tiring than Naruto deciding to have a race with Kankuro sliding down the banisters certainly was. Of course Naruto had been the idiot to fall off at the end and get fawned over and lectured again by Gaara and Sasuke. Despite Gaara always being more subtle about his concern for Naruto, it was always obvious to everyone but Naruto.

So here they were now. Everyone was in there separate rooms, preparing for the restful journey of sleep. Gaara on the other hand was just preparing to spend the evening working until the pains of sickness over came him and forced him to merely sulk in the bathroom where he could gag to his heart's content.

"Tsunade better get here soon; I don't think I can take much more of this" Sasuke complained. He settled into the bed he was given for his stay and finally intended to catch up on some serious Z's. Everyone else pretty much had the same idea. Naruto however could not fall asleep even if he wanted to. He laid awake in bed yet he couldn't tire himself except with thoughts of Gaara. Even after all the assurance Gaara had given him, Naruto couldn't stop thinking about it. He just had this persistent feeling that this all wasn't as simple as Gaara made it out to be.

Before Naruto had realized it, it was three in the morning and he hadn't got a lick of sleep. He had to put an end to this now, so Naruto eagerly pushed back his blankets and stepped out of bed. Of course he didn't believe Gaara would still be up, but it was worth a shot. Upon reaching Gaara's room, Naruto knocked gently on the other's door. To tell the truth Naruto was hoping Gaara wouldn't climb out of bed just to answer the door, especially now that Naruto knew Gaara slept in the nude.

His prayers were answered when the door remained closed and no life could be heard from inside. After much deliberation, Naruto decided to let himself in. "Gaara?" Naruto softly pushed open the door and gazed upon an empty room. Where was Gaara? The bed was empty and the room was cold, dark and lonely. In fact Naruto had noticed it before now. He couldn't blame Gaara for not staying in here all by himself. Just as Naruto was about to step inside, he suddenly felt strong hand land on his shoulder and briefly turned him around; causing the blond to suddenly scream out in surprise.

"Shush. What are you doing up Naruto? I thought you went to bed hours ago?" Gaara mentioned curiously. He had just been downstairs trying to finish up work he was falling behind on when he heard footsteps upstairs. Who would have guessed it was Naruto? Actually this fact rather aggravated Gaara greatly because if Naruto was here, it had to be about something Gaara was not in the mood to talk about.

Naruto went silent after he realized it was just Gaara and sighed longingly. "Quite scaring me like that Gaara." Naruto huffed. He was relieved to see no one had came running out of their runs at the sound of his voice, so he hastily went inside Gaara's room before they discovered them in the hallway. Gaara came in looking rather annoyed as he closed the door behind him. "Sorry Gaara, I didn't mean to disturb you or anything....I just couldn't sleep." The blond explained timidly. Before he had been tempted to question Gaara, but he could see that would only upset Gaara more and he didn't think they needed to wake up any more of the household.

Gaara felt remorseful about his previous thoughts. A light smile returned to his face, "I can't say it would be much of a good thing if anyone caught you in here, but you are always welcomed to stay the night in my room." Gaara replied, though not realizing how suggestive such a statement could be until after it was said. Luckily, Naruto hadn't noticed and childishly galloped to Gaara's bed where he threw himself beneath the blankets. Gaara followed a little reluctant. He was afraid he couldn’t get any more work done or that he would be overcome with that sickening feeling before the night was through and that would just make Naruto uneasy.

As the two laid in bed an awkward silence had fallen in the room. Gaara had pretended to try to sleep while Naruto was actually trying to sleep, curled on his side while clinging to Gaara. But only after ten minutes it was obvious neither one were going to get any sleep. "I feel restless..." Naruto sighed suddenly. He opened his eyes and gazed at Gaara's gorgeous face, tracing by the darkness and the moonlight. He just loved something about Gaara's calmness though others would refer to it as a stoic demeanor. "Gaara..." The blond began quietly.

Seeing as how Naruto would probably end up staying up with him all night, Gaara groaned as he turned on his side to face his peculiar love. "What is it Naruto? You know if you don't get any sleep tonight, Sasuke is going to be on your case all day tomorrow." Gaara reminded.

"I know...but..." Even through the dreadful darkness, Gaara could make out the soft red dancing along Naruto's cheeks. "We don't act very much like a couple, do we?" Naruto asked. Gaara's eyes widened and a wave of nervousness washed over him. He personally thought they were doing a pretty good job, but that just could have been an excuse for him not to think of other 'things'. "I mean we've only kissed twice and we haven't told anyone. It's almost like we were never together." Naruto informed timidly. He didn't exactly know what he was asking for in this relationship but he was sure there had to be more. Their trust in each other wasn't even that good.

Gaara rolled over so that he was laying entirely over Naruto, supporting his weight on his arms. "Do you not like kissing?" Gaara asked with a slight snicker once Naruto gapped at their closeness. "What is it you want? As your boyfriend I am obliged to give you anything I think will make you happy." Gaara whispered meaningfully.

"I love kissing you..." Naruto mumbled. "But I just want to know, do you really love me?" Naruto asked, his eyes gazing hopefully into Gaara's. "Or are you just with me because I am the first person you ever liked?" Naruto wasn't too sure he could accept any of this if it turned out Gaara was just being careful because he didn't want to end up losing someone he may learn to love later; that was not reason to be with someone, at least to Naruto anyway.

His heart fluttered in his chest and his throat went dry unexpectly, but this did not keep Gaara from answering. "I've been trying to find that out myself...but I am most sure that I love you. And if this is not true love that I feel, my apologizes to you and your destined lover." With that, Gaara lowered himself closer to Naruto. Their lips touched tenderly, causing both to close their eyes quickly. Gaara couldn't contain his sanity whenever he was near this softness, this beauty. So he intended to deepen the kiss; Naruto didn't reject the action at all.

Gaara's tongue ran playfully over Naruto's bottom and upper lips, engraving their lusciousness into his mind. Naruto slowly hoisted his arms up and around Gaara's neck as he held the other tightly to him. The kiss was nothing like the child like innocence it ha been times before. Lips overlapped and tried to consume one another with haste. Naruto couldn't hold in a longing moan when Gaara's tongue slipped into his mouth and caressed his own tongue. The wet muscle grazed over every tooth and gum, as if mapping out Naruto's mouth for later ravishing as well as this one. Naruto got bold enough to entice Gaara with his tongue, and soon enough a raging battle began between the two.

There was nothing more sweet to Gaara than Naruto's taste. From days without ramen, his taste had time enough to return to his natural flavor. "Gaara..." Naruto groaned when the red head pulled away from his lips. Naruto stared up through hazy slits, panting heavily with flushed cheeks. Such a beautiful sight had encouraged Gaara he wanted to see more. So Gaara came down again, giving Naruto's lips a chaste kiss before he slowly started to make his way down Naruto's chin and throat. He shudder with delight at how excited he was making them both. But he was curious to see just how excited Naruto was.

Kankuro of course had told him all the proper ways to pleasure your lover and how you could tell if it was working. Gaara would just see if Kankuro's advice worked for Naruto as well. His hands slyly traced Naruto's sides as he ravished the blonde's neck in sweet kisses. He nipped lightly on a plot of skin on Naruto's collar bone and started to suck hungrily at the spot, making his love moan in pleasure. He was reminded of how perfect Naruto's body was as his hands caressed the boy's hips just beneath the opening of his pajama top. The skin was absolutely mind-boggling; how can anyone be this soft and smooth?

Gaara slowly pulled his lips away from Naruto and smiled genuinely at the red mark he had left. Take that Sasuke, he was inwardly shouting. His eyes traveled farther down and stopped when he noticed a small bulge within Naruto's pants. That sight alone brought Gaara back to reality. This was real and he was really doing this to Naruto. He was suddenly nervous about going further. But if he didn't then Naruto would probably think he was cruel or had changed his mind, which he hadn't. Throwing away that fear, Gaara kneeled down to Naruto's groin, making the blond all the more nervous.

"G-gaara...what are you doing?" Naruto asked fearfully. Gaara did not speak and simply gripped the edge of the fabric before he pulled the pants down midway. Naruto's face exploded into red. "Gaara! Don't do that." He whimpered. But Gaara ignored him. His eyes were somewhat captivated by Naruto's own desire. The taunt cock of his love laid flat against his beautiful stomach, pleading for the attention it was not recieving. Without much hesitation Gaara took hold of the erect member and slipped it into his mouth. "Gaara!" Naruto gasped out. His head pushed back roughly against the pillow and his hands squeezed tightly to the sheets below.

Why did it feel so good? Gaara's mouth was so hot and wet right now and it was only helping fuel Naruto's arousal more. But being the uneducated teenage boy he was, he had no idea what was going on as far as this. Of course he had asked Iruka about sex before, but the motherly man would never tell him. So whatever he knew came from Kakashi's books, which he only got a glimpse of every now and then. But this was nothing like that, for the most obvious reason that he wasn't a girl.

Naruto tried to retain a moan, but it passed his lips anyway as Gaara's mouth went up and down his cock. Gaara's tongue joined in for extra stimulation as it caressed below and above the shaft of his love. Slowly drawing out the hardened member from his mouth, Gaara ran his tongue along the head, scrapping across the slit that had discharged several drops of pre-cum. Gaara smirked mildly when Naruto thrust his hips up in response. So he wasn't as bad as he thought he would be, that was a relief.

The feeling kept building in Naruto until he felt he couldn't hold it in any longer. "Gaara! Stop it!" He whimpered desperately for he didn't exactly know what was suppose to happen if he let go. Gaara refused to quite now that he had Naruto where he wanted him. Pushing the cock deep into his mouth, Naruto choked out a weak cry. His back arched up as ecstasy in the moment consumed him. Calling out his boyfriend's name louder than before, Naruto spilt his load quickly into Gaara's awaiting mouth. Gaara anxious drank all of Naruto's essence, not letting a drop escape through his lips.

He popped his mouth off and lightly cleaned the head of Naruto's shaft with his tongue before giving an amused smile. "Gaara! I can't believe you ate that!" Naruto whined in what seemed to be disgust. His brain practically scrambled at the thought and all the cells in his face burst open with red. He glared at Gaara with small tears in the corner of his eyes. "Why'd you do that?" He grumbled embarrassingly.

Gaara actually laughed out this time, which was a great shocker to Naruto. He crawled back on the bed so that he laid near Naruto again. "Because I wanted to." He seductively licked his lips. "And I have to say, you taste delicious Naruto." Naruto mewl in disbelief and fell back onto the mattress. "What's got you so worked up?" Gaara asked. "That's just what lovers do." He explained, hovering over Naruto's head. "If you didn't like it that much, I won't do it again."

"That's not it..." Naruto mumbled in pout. He lifted his hips some and pulled back up his bottoms. "I thought you haven't done this before."

Gaara blinked curiously. "I haven't."

"That's impossible!" Naruto lashed out. "You're too good not to have any experience."

A moment of silence returned until Gaara finally broke it with a snicker. "Go to sleep Naruto." He chuckled. He laid back into bed with a wide smile on his face. Naruto huffed once more and settled down again. With their actions having warn him out it was real easy for Naruto to fall asleep. Gaara turned to his side, looking at Naruto's sleeping form and he tenderly kissed the blonde's forehead. "I only give my best for you Naruto." He whispered.

But unknowing to both Naruto and Gaara, they had a strange onlooker who was not particularly happy with what he had just saw. It was his own fault though using his sharigun to spy on the two.
