now-

i slept fitfully in Gaara's arm, content to never move again. Unfortunately, that wasn't gunna happen. Gaara woke me with a little bit of a shove and blinked my eyes open hazily.

"mmm. morning already?" i asked as i yawned. Gaara kissed me on the head got up out of bed to get dressed. i sighed and followed suit. I slipped on my jacket and my pants as Gaara slid his long red cloak on. i shook my head at him. "i still don't get how you don't sweat to death under that thing. I nearly sweat to death if I'm stay out in the evil sun in my clothes, and they are much lighter than yours. he smiled a faint smile at my remarks, and shrugged. I rolled my eyes at my red headed lover and gave him a gentle kiss, wrapping my arms around him. "love you gaara. i will see you in konoha." grinned at him, "dont be late!" i said loudly laughing at the idea of Gaara being late.

"i wont be." he said firmly.

"i know." i kissed him softly once more, before i went back through my mirror to my house.

i sat here on Naruto's bed. each hour gave my the feeling of dread and utter loneliness. He had not been home all night. My mind mulled over who could possible have entranced the blonde and convinced his heart to fall for them? i couldn't figure it out. it was not Sakura. or Neji. or Lee or Ino. I suppose it could be Hinata. I know she has had an eye on him since we were kids in the academy. Still. With her father the way he is i cant imagine Naruto staying the night there, or Hinata staying over here. My mind was throughly baffled as to who it could be. A thud interrupted my thoughts. I pulled out my kunai and turned to face the blondes messy room of clothes which he preferred to call, a closest. I crept to the side if the door, ready to pounce on whatever was that came out. My mind raced. Was someone after Naruto? perhaps it was to get to Narutos boyfriend? maybe Naru's boyfriend is up to no good and they want to get to him through Naruto. I tightened my grip on my knife as the clattering grew louder. Muffled cursing could be heard. But i could no quiet make out the persons voice. Defiantly not making much of an effort to stay hidden anymore. i curse my self, how could i missed this? i was here the whole night? how did the assassin slip past me? Anger coursed through me. A stupid assassin slipped past me. I decided i would kill him. and send a message to who ever sent him. To stay away from Naruto. Even if Naruto doesn't love me. I will still protect him. The door creaked open and i launched myself at the person beginning to step out of the door. I crashed into the ground my grip tight on the person i tackled. He fought back. he was strong. He kicked me away and i heard him say,

"what the fuck Sasuke?!" i froze. that voice.... my eye focused on his hair. his eyes. it was Naruto. standing before me. the closet door was swinging open. How the hell did he get in there? was he in there all night? My eyes noticed a silver mirror inside the closet, have covered with a sheet. The glass held cloud the drifted along the wind in the blue skies.

"naruto." i said softly my eyes switching from the cloudy mirror, and the blonde. "what is that?"
