CHAPTER 1 BEGIN
+++++++++++++++

Kankuro had been right, it was a wise thing to stop at the Konoha's local bathhouse on their latest diplomatic trip to the Hidden Leaf Village. The talks that were taking place between the local powers of Konoha and Gaara and his siblings had done nothing but grate on his nerves for days. Water was a precious commodity in the desert, thus there was no bathhouses in the land that he, the Kazekage, ruled over. In his lifetime Gaara had gotten used to the feeling of being constantly dirty, especially from his sand barrier which at times he found comforting yet wholly annoying. Stepping out of the bath he heard chatter from the other patrons followed by a soft clicking noise and a very excited exclamation.

“Yes! I'm gonna be eating ramen for weeks!”

In front of Gaara stood a semi-clothed Uzumaki Naruto hopping around in glee. Though the young man had matured physically in the past few years, Gaara could not help but notice how immature Naruto was for being nearly nineteen. “What are you doing?” Gaara grumbled at Naruto, trying his best to calm himself so that he didn't attempt break every bone in the blonde's body. Though Shukaku had been removed and Gaara was adverse to the thought of mindless murder, it did not mean that he would allow his friend from the Leaf Village to go unscathed for such a prank.

“Naked pictures of the Kazakage, you have no idea how well these'll sell, Gaara! I'm sure that old hag Tsunade will buy at least ten!”

Naruto continued jumping around gleefully clutching a camera as the temple in Gaara's forehead bulged with anger with each hop the blonde took. This was all Gaara needed, the leader of an ally nation to have nude pictures of him. Normally Gaara would have dismissed such an outrageous claim about a ruler such as Tsunade, but the more time he spent with her and that Jiraiya, the more that Gaara thought that Naruto might be telling the truth.

The red-haired Kazekage had two options…he could either beat Naruto within an inch of his life and rip that camera from his unconscious hands, or Gaara could not make a scene and attempt to get the camera in a more diplomatic way. Option one sounded much more inviting until he thought of the punishment he would endure from both his siblings for causing a scene. Reserving the best sounding option for a backup (at least best sounding to an ex-murderer) he quietly walked over to the gleeful idiot and hauled him by the arm back to the dressing area while Naruto fought him a bit and kept the precious camera's bounty out of Gaara's reach.

“Give me the camera.” Gaara growled at Naruto, watching as the blonde gave him a big mischievous grin.

“No way!” Naruto pulled away and his body clenched in anticipation of a battle with the Kazekage.

“Give it to me or die.”

Naruto scoffed at this, he knew his friend better than that, there was no way that old sandy pants would actually kill him…at least he hoped not. Feeling a bit nervous now, Naruto attempted a compromise. “Pay me.”

“I will not pay you for pictures you had no permission to take. I will not warn you again, give the camera to me or die.” Gaara hissed, summoning the sand from his gourd across the room. Perhaps he wouldn't kill Naruto, but Gaara how decided that maiming him just enough to get the camera would be no crime.

“Oh come on, Gaara!” the whiskered man whined. “I'm flat broke and have been eating nothing but instant ramen for weeks. Its not fair that I have to give up easy cash.”

Gaara actually did feel a bit bad for Naruto, as the Kazekage he never had to go without anything. Though Sand was not the most well-off nation, it was able to keep their ruler away from the irritation of eating nothing but that disgusting instant crap that Naruto always force fed him when Gaara would visit. The young leader realized quickly to not go visit Naruto around meal times, less be subjugated to the culinary arts of boiling water and pouring it on dehydrated food-like substances. “If you give me that camera I will treat you to Ramen, once. I have been meaning to visit you, I will consider it as part of my trip.”

Naruto raised an eyebrow and diverted his gaze to the ceiling as if he were considering it very carefully. “All right Gaara, you have a deal.”

“Camera,” the Kazekage instructed, pointing at his hand.

“Nah, I'll just delete the pictures.” Naruto pushed some buttons and declared the nudie pictures officially gone. He gave Gaara a smile and threw clothes at the Kazekage. “Hurry up sand-man, daylights burning and I'm starved.”

Gaara dressed quietly and assumed that this was the last time that he would have to deal with the thought of naked pictures floating around Konoha…little did he know that his blissful technological ignorance and a sneaky Naruto had other plans. It would have been better if he had demanded the actual camera from Naruto and smashed it in his hands.

(one month later)

“What is this?” Temari had burst into Gaara's office unannounced, waking him from an afternoon nap that he tried to sneak in every chance he could. During the night he still often struggled with insomnia, a forced habit. For some odd reason, a nap in the warm sun wasn't as hard for Gaara to succumb to.

“What is what?” he asked calmly, used to Temari's overdramatic nature at times.

“This!” With that word she threw a single picture down on the desk and gave him a look of fury. “Do I have to keep an eye on you every waking moment?”

Gaara could not reply, he could only stare at the photograph of a very naked Kazekage. For this, Naruto would not only be maimed, but Gaara would kill him…murder him by shoving so much ramen down the blonde's throat that he would just gurgle and die via drowning. Finally finding words he turned to Temari, “We are leaving for Konoha, I have something that I must attend to there.”

A/N's: Not very long or terribly exciting yet, but that's okay. This is just a fun lighthearted story to counteract all the drama from Realization. Please let me know what you think…even if its to let me know that I suck.
