Neji giggled as he was led blindly to some unknown place. "Itachi-sama, where are we going?" Neji asked once again, feeling the gentle push on his shoulders leading him to his destination."For the millionth time, if I wanted you to know. I would have never blindfolded you in the first place." Itachi said softly, leading the long haired boy to a small quiet area. "Ok now I will leave in 3... 2... 1..." with that Itachi removed the blindfold from Neji eyes, quickly ducking out of the room.Looking back where Itachi had been behind him Neji stared shocked, before turning his attention to what had been in front of him. "Gaara!" Neji squeeled with joy rushing quickly toward the red-head. When Neji reached out to wrap his arms around him though, Gaara recoiled out of instinct."What's wrong?" Neji asked a bit saddened. "Are you not happy to see me?" Neji continued, looking at the ground"No, that's not it. Honest. I just, I haven't had any real human contact in a long time." Gaara replied, stepping closer to the long haired boy feeling a little edge ebb off."Oh Gaara." Neji said softly lookinh up at the red-head. "I've missed you for so long. I wish I had been there to keep this from happening. This mistrust, and lack of human contact for so long." Neji said softly reaching out to Gaara, this time more slow and careful as to not frighten the other away.Creeping his hand ever so slowly, Neji's hand touched Gaara's face ever so softly. This time the red-head didn't recoil. Instead he leaned into the warmth of Neji's hand. "You feel so nice, still so soft." Gaara commented, more to himself, but making Neji blush none the less. Neji swallowed hard as he watched the red-heads deadly calm exspression."T-thank you, I was begining to think that any longer and you find me unatractive. I mean all these years of actual labor." Neji replied nervously, Gaara's eyes snapped open at this. He could never imagine ever finding Neji unattractive."Neji make me feel again, make me feel... human... please." Gaara begged taking Neji's hand in his own, kissing the soft palm. Melting in response to the plea, Neji was at a loss as to what to do. Nodding ever so slightly Neji shakily lifted his hands to Gaara's shirt, motioning for the red-head to remove the offending garmet.Once the shirt was lying on the floor Neji proceeded to gently run his fingers along each of the scars, marring the other's body. Gaara released a shaky breath as the other did so. Looking into the red-heads eyes for a sort of conformation to continue, Neji suddenly felt very nervous of his actions. Neji's hands continued to lightly ghost over the pale, pale skin, until his hands reached the waistband of Gaara's pants. Just as he was about to hook his fingers beneath the fabric and tug down, Gaara's hands quickly went to Neji's wrists preventing the boy from going any further."No, not tonight." Gaara insisted, getting a small timid nod in reply."Gaa-kun, are you going to leave this place?" Neji asked, his head was bowed, as he watched his hands play with the waist band of Gaara's pants."I..." the red-head paused thinking about his response. "I don't really know." Gaara replied honestly."No! Please don't leave!" Neji yelled frantically his hands encircling the red-head's wrist."Well how much work could really be in such a small villiage for an assassin?" Gaara asked raising a non-existant eyebrow."Then become something else. You could live with us, whatever it is just please stay." Neji pleaded running his hands through Gaara's bright red locks. "Your loosing your mind because of all this, please just settle down with me." Gaara stared in the pleading eyes of the one he had come to long for."I couldn't, all I know how to be is an assassin." Gaara quipped pitifully."Well, then you will learn.""I can't." came the insistant reply."Then if you won't even try to stay with me, I also can not and will not follow you. Leave this villiage Gaara, because after this night I can no longer stand to be around you." Neji said calmly before turning and walking from the room, on the inside he was in peices and tears threatened to overflow. The former geisha just bit his lip as he continued to force his legs into moving.
Next MorningNaruto smiled sitting up in his bed looking out the window, his things were already packed. He would move into the small home with Sasuke, of course him and Itachi would have to make the home bigger. To accomidate more people living there, but that didn't matter at the moment.Gaara was already up that morning, he was watching Naruto calmly. "What are you so damn cheery about?" Gaara asked, the blounde beamed a bright smile at him."I'm going to move in with Sasuke today." Naruto replied his smile turned calm, peaceful almost."What? Whatever for?" Gaara asked sitting up to watch the blounde. Naruto sighed before turning his attention to his red-headed friend."Come on Gaara, we can't do this forever. Almost all of the Demon Nine have been caught and killed. Gaara, I don't want to die, not if I can be with Sasuke instead. Why don't you come with me? Stay with Neji, I know you want to. There is something special about those two they can heal like no one else ever has." Naruto pleaded, trying his hardest to convince the red-head to come with him.Gaara looked away, "No, I can't." Naruto sighed sadly, a forlorn look crossing his face as he hoisted bag over his shoulder before stepping outside of the room."Please think about it." Naruto said softly before shutting the door behind him.
SasukeSasuke smiled softly as he greeted Naruto at the door, it was night so everyone who had visited had already left to go to their suites in town. "I'm so glad you decided to come stay with us." Sasuke spoke softly wrapping his arms around Naruto's neck in a quick embrace before leading the blounde into his home."I wouldn't want to be anywhere else." Naruto replied sweetly, noticing a sad looking Neji passing them by to go sit on the porch.
NejiNeji sighed as he sat on the porch his sights on the stars, and his thoughts on a certain red-head. Neji wondered why Gaara had to be so stubborn, and why he couldn't just try and stay. Neji supposed that it for the best for Gaara. Looking out toward the town, Neji's thoughts turned to Sasuke and Naruto. Thoughts of the happy couple made his chest constrict painfully.It made him feel so completely lonely. Then he began to think about Itachi, the older man was equally as lonely, Neji thought to himself. How did he deal with it day after day? Sighing, the long-haired boy began to try and warm his now cold body. Only it was to no avail, as the slim boy couldn't warm himself.Standing slowly, gracefully, Neji turned to walk into his small home, when he felt a hand on his shoulder. Instantly the boy was tense at the feeling, and he wanted to scream, but couldn't.Instead tears began to fall from his eyes, unexpectantly, and he couldn't understan why. 'Gaara should be here, he should protect me!' Neji thought in frustration and slight fear. Turning tensely to face the person who was preventing him from entering his home, Neji stood shocked.Quickly a pale hand came up and wiped away the long-haired boys tears. "Crying doesn't suit you." came the melow whisper.Neji smiled happily before throwing himself onto a happy red-head. "I can't believe you came!" Neji exclaimed feeling his stomach doing flips."Naruto got mad at me also, so of course I thought about it. Maybe you were both right, my life needs a... change." Gaara explained looking at his surroundings. Sighing, Neji turned Gaara's attention back to himself."Come on, you can come warm me up." Neji said with a sly grin, lacing his fingers with Gaara's before dragging the red-head inside. 'Maybe everthing will really be alright.' Neji thought to himself happily.
