~Chapter 17; Water Fight!!~
[I think this is a little fluff but I didn't want to make it part 4]
Gaara and Asuka had finished their desserts and now, to Asuka's knowledge, were going home. She got a little curious when they didn't turn down a street that lead to the dorm rooms. “Gaara?”
He looked at her. “Hm?”
“Where are we going?” She asked nervously. She hoped he wasn't one of those guys who would do a big date like this then rape someone afterwards, I mean, she had no idea where they were! She's gunna jump to conclusions! `No, Gaara's not like that. I trust him.'
“It's a surprise.” He said calmly, while giving her a small smirk.
Minutes later they arrived at the location of the surprise he was talking about. Man! He really knew how take a girl out on a great date!!! ((A.N. Ha! `Great Date'! That rhymed! … do I get a cookie? Peyton, I want a cookie, damn it!!!)) Her face brightened and they both walked to the shore. “Gaara! How did you think of all this?! A great restaurant, and a walk on the beach! This has got to be the best night of my life!” She said happily.
Something in Gaara warmed up at the sight of her so happy. `What is this feeling?'
`Gaara and Asuka sitting in a tree! K.I.S.S.I.N.G.! First comes LOVE, then comes MARRIAGE, then comes the-'
`SHUT THE HELL UP!!!!' Before he had more time to argue with the Shukaku, Asuka had grabbed his arm and ran towards the shore. Gaara calmed down and both stood on the shore, the waves crashing right in front of them. Asuka pulled off her shoes and stepped in the water. The bottom of her dress fell into the water but she didn't care. Gaara took off hiss shoes as well but just sat down with his feet stuck out towards the water's edge. The waves licked at his skin and it seemed to calm him even more. He watched as Asuka happily walked knee deep in the water, every once in a while she would reach down to the ocean floor and pick up a shell. He could tell she was really enjoying herself. He had to admit, he was too. Just watching her made him feel content. He laid back on the sand with his hands folded behind his head. He stared at the moon as he listened to his girlfriend's giggles. This really was the perfect night. Asuka looked over at her boyfriend in admiration. She was surprised to see him laying down. She smirked when she got an idea. She walked closer, as quiet as she could. She dunked her hands in the water when she was near his feet, then she splashed water all over him. She giggled when he shot up from the unexpected coldness of the ocean water. He looked at her slightly surprised, then he realized, this is Asuka, she's GUNNA do something like this. He chuckled lightly and an evil smirk spread across his face. “So it's war you want?” He said quietly. He stood up, took his shirt off, and splashed her back. She laughed and started trying to run but the fact that she was still about knee deep in the water, and Gaara's ankles were hardly covered since he was pretty much on shore, made it very hard for her to get past him. He had the advantage of speed, which was pretty much all he needed. She thought of a small plan and decided it was worth a try. She splashed a large amount of water on him and did her best to run past him. When she thought she was going to make it to the shore, two strong arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her back against a wet chest. “Gotcha.” He whispered. She giggled and tried to scramble away but to no avail.
“No fair! You're stronger!” She whined.
“Sure it is. You splashed me first.” He said smugly.
“Nuh-uh!” She said childishly.
“Yeah-huh.” He copied her tone of voice.
“Hey, look!” She said excitedly, pointing in the opposite direction. Gaara couldn't help but to look, making his grip on her loosen. She smirked and pulled free. Before Gaara could register what was happening, she tripped him and he fell on his back in the water. “Who's got who?” She said tauntingly. He smirked and grabbed her hand and pulled her down with him.
“I got you.” He answered her question. She looked at him and laughed. They were both soaking wet. His head was on the sand. She laid her head on his chest and the couple looked at the stars. Asuka slowly blinked her eyes closed. Gaara looked down. `She's asleep… I guess it's time to go home now.' He sat up carefully. He then stood up with her in laying in his arms bridal style. He grabbed his shirt and started back to the dorms. When he reached Asuka's dorm to drop her off he knocked on the door. No one answered. He knocked again. Still no answer. He saw a folded up piece of paper in the crack of the door. He set her down and opened it. It said;
`Asuka,
Shinzou and I will be gone until about 3 or 4 in the morning. We are with Kiba and Cronic. Don't worry about us, we'll be fine. See you in the morning!
-Miharu'
Gaara sighed and tried to open the door… it was locked. `Uh-oh. This isn't going to be good.' He shook it in hopes that it was just jammed or something but no such luck. He spotted Asuka's purse. [Not meaning this to be rude, it was an emergency.] He opened it and practically dumped it out trying to find some kind of key. Again, no such luck. He sighed and put everything back. `looks like she'll have to stay in my dorm tonight.' He put his soaked shirt on and shook her lightly. She blinked her eyes open.
“Gaara? What time is it?” She rubbed her head.
“I don't know but your roommates won't be back until 3 or 4 in the morning and the door's locked.” He said, turning a glare towards the offensive wooden object.
Asuka's eyes widened slightly. “Then what am I going to do?! I don't have a key! There was only 2!” She started to panic.
“Well, we are only aloud to have someone from another dorm, spend the night in another person's dorm if it's an emergency, and I think this qualifies as an emergency. So if you want, you can stay in my dorm and I can bring you back to yours early in the morning. Do you wanna do that?” He asked her.
She thought about it. “Yeah, it looks like it's my only choice.” She was a little worried about spending the night in a boy's dorm, yet somewhat excited. Gaara held out his hand to her and she gladly accepted it. He helped her up and headed to his dorm.
