Grand Summoning Jutsu

The hot yellow blaze of the sun was now peaking over the sand dunes of the early morning. the gentle sound of wind picking up came from Maya's open window as She sat at her dresser running her brush through her hair, hold bits at a time making sure it was straight enough to her liking.

For the most part, the week teaching at the School wasn't as bad as she anticipated, Despite the occasional whistle from young men from their seats in the auditorium like class room, to asking her out for ramen, the students seemed to enjoy her lectures and liked hearing her tails from from the past. the stories kept them on the edge of their seats as Maya had explained events in History in detail.

Applying her cherry lip gloss, She would more often than not find herself looking though her mirror on the dresser getting a glimpse of her lover, fast asleep from the previous night. Gaara seemed to enjoy sleep, now that she was with him, it was as though he could sleep the day away if he didn't have other duties as Kazekage to tend to. But he looked so cute and peaceful she rarely had the heart to wake the redhead from his dreams. her legs crossed in the the chair she sat in, leaning in looking over her own shoulder at the reflection.

She lifted herself from her chair laying the brush back on her dresser, making her way over to the sleeping teen, heavily breathing in his slumber.

"Gaara." she raised her voice to a soft whisper, almost afraid to wake him. he nudges his shoulder making his body jerk slightly to the small impact. "Gaara, time to wake up."

"yeah, I am awake." he muttered opening his eyes to glaze at Maya hunched over him.

"I have to go now, I'll see you later ok." she continued with a smile. turning to leave she felt his hand reach out for her wrist. it was warm from it being under the covers all night. she turned her head swiftly to catch the young Kazekage now turned toward her his hand reached out using his strength to pull her back to sit next to him on the edge of the bed.

"forget something?" he began in a tired, flat tone.

"hum...?" her eyes widened with question. "I don't know..." she trailed off sounding almost nervous.

Gaara pushed himself to lean on his elbow in order to bring his face closer to hers. tilting his head slightly tipping in giving her a taste of her own medicine, the small kiss was enough to send her into a dreamlike state. He broke the peck soon after pulling shyly away from her lips, to see her reaction. He allowed his body to fall back to the comfort of the bed his Iris grazing over Maya, now with her eyes gently closed.

"oh, yeah" Maya sounded off in her own little world and a silly smile. lifting herself from the bed she began to walk out of the room, but not before turning once more to flash a shy smile at him. "thank you."

~*~*~*~*~*

"Now, who can tell me what the name "Cleopatra" Actually means?" Maya faced the white board with her nose downwards into her lecture book. her voiced was dominant, so that her students would acknowledge the fact that there was not going to be goofing around in class. Despite her young looking face, tiny body and piercing eyes she was there to teach them and nothing more. "no one knows?" she lifted her head from her book grazing her eyes across the young men and ladies of her class. "It is a word derived from Greek languages, meaning 'Loving her Father'" her tongue fell upon a different sounding accent, speaking the name as she continued her speech. her nose falling once again to the book and turning to the white board she began to write notes for them to copy down.

"what year did she actually rule?" the voice of a young, shy sounding girl echoed though the auditorium.

Not moving her eyes from the board she began to answer the question.

Gaara reached for the door of the class room where he heard the young girls question from outside in the hall. Baki was standing with him to escort him though the school. he wanted to come to see how Maya was doing, along with checking out of what was going on in the other parts, in ninja training etc. his head and eyes were shielded by the large blue and white rice hat, the robes draped over his body, his hands peaking from the sides. reaching for the door he quietly opened it and slipped himself in. he found himself standing in the very back, Maya standing at the bottom of the room her back to the students writing notes on the board. her tiny body made it hard for her to reach the top of the white board with her marker, so she needed a foot stool. her leg would occasionally pop outwards and tippie toed on the other to give her more lift.

"After her Father, king Ptolemy XII, died in March of 51BC she assumed joint rule when she was 18, along with her 12 year old brother Ptolemy XIII." her sweet voice carried though the large class as they held to her words, finding it interesting that she knew all of this.

"wouldn't that mean that they were married?" A young man's deep voice followed.

Gaara just stood quietly at the back, Baki at his side, both with their arms crossed listening to the lecture, finding it incredible that all these people were so gripped to Maya's experiences.

"yes, she was Married to her brother. I know we might find it rather peculiar but at this time it was considered proper, in order to keep the bloodlines pour. in her case, keep royal with royal." she lifted her nose from the book and began to write once again.

"Do you have a boyfriend miss Maya?" a chuckle came from behind her from one of the well known class clowns. a few followed in his footsteps of laughter.

Gaara's eyes widened dropping his arms to the sides. his mouth fell open in shock that one of her students had the nerve to ask her such a question since she was trying to teach them something. he felt himself get angry at the boys words, clenching his fists as a instant reaction, grinding his teeth. ~how would she even answer that question?~ he repeated in his head over and over. Baki only watched the young man from the sidelines as the quiet anger over took his emotions.

"yes" she paused closing her book. "now, can we get back to this please."

"I'm sure he wouldn't know if I took you out for Ramen, would he?" the class seemed to erupt in a slight laughter once again at the young man.

Gaara's face softened at her soft words. 'yes' she called him her boyfriend, unless she was just saying that to get the boy off her back. his eyes darted to who was hitting on Maya right in front of him.

"Well." Maya turned her attention to the class, now listening to see if she would take his invitation, but all they got was a slight smile appear across her face. "we have a guest today, it seems." the class shot their heads to the direction she was smiling to find the Kazekage among them, and staring dead at the young man hitting on Maya.

His transfixion was broken from her cute voice telling them he was in the room. he crossed his arms across his chest once more and lowered his head under the rice hat.

A strike of fear fell over the young man's body, it was like he could barely move his gaze from the tall figure. he was glaring at him for his comments, and glaring as if he was pissed about it. he slid himself to turn front once again, placing his arms on the desk and leaning his head over them.

"now, the next person that asks me about my Love life, will pay along with the rest of the class." she spoke in a stern voice once again. she grazed her blue and green eyes over the redhead tucked in the safety of his robes, he was obviously blushing trying to hide it from the staring people.

"He just want's one date" another voice, unfamiliar then last boy. one of his buddies that sat next to him chuckled at his own comment, but feeling the hard slug of his friend clip him in the shoulder as if to tell him to 'shut up'.

"There will be a test on this tomorrow afternoon, thanks to your loud mouth friend." she stated flatly as the groans began at the young man.

A smirk fell over the Kazekages lips, she was so strict and he was glad he was not in her class.

"dude" the man sitting hunched over his arms leaned to his friend in a whisper "the Kazekage looked like he was going to rip me apart"

"your imagining things."

"no, really.... I think" he continued.

"what?"

"he might be the 'boyfriend'" his eyes lifted to his wide eyed buddy.

"bullshit!" he raised his voice within the whisper.

"I'm serious..." he turned his eyes once again to the back of the room, casually looking over his shoulder to find the tall redhead looking down at the small teacher with a slight lift at the corners of his mouth.

"In August of that year Cleopatra became ruler of all, dropping her younger brother from any ties with the throne her father left for them...." the lecture continued.

~*~*~*~*~*

"hey Maya!" Temari waved darting up to her professionally dress friend.

"hey, how was your class?" Maya spoke fixing her skirt with the flat of her palm, rustling out any wrinkles she had.

"good good" the Blond ninja smiled " yours?"

"Good" she paused "Did Gaara come to visit you today?"

"yeah, he needs to do it from time to time." Temari continued.

"I see, he was at my class today" Maya closed her eyes to giggle "I hope he didn't find me too boring."

"I doubt it......anyway, I wanted to see if you wanted to go to the beach with me on the weekend, its a bit of a hike because it's on the boarder of the fire country. but its the most beautiful spot for swimming and basking in the sun." she nudged Maya a little.

"sounds like fun! maybe we can see if Shikamaru will go."

A blush fell to the Ninja's face when she heard his name. "maybe we can send a sand bird" she stuck out her tongue and gave a peace sign.

"I have the perfect swimsuit I just bought" the brunette smiled wildly at the thought.

"this will be fun."

"we should get going though, Kankuro is going to get cranky if I don't feed him right away." Maya's eyes narrowed thinking of Kankuro pretending he's starving when she will make her way into the living room.
