The Only One

Thanks for the reviews. This chapter is going to be the hardest and most sad Chapter I’ve ever done. It’s going to be hard for me to write because Gaara gets hurts really bad.

Enjoy!

Chapter 11

Where’s My Hero?

Gaara tried to get out of the rope that kept him tied to the chair. He saw Orochimaru coming closer to him. He turned his head and looked towards the ground. He couldn’t stand the guy, and his friends were even worse. With them being altogether, he knew his life was about to be ruined.

“I think we should untied him Itachi. Just think of all the fun we can have?” Said Orochimaru.

“Yeah, me too. I love it when our prey tries to run and scream too, while we kick them and beat them. Said Itachi.

“I say let’s do it. We have him all to our selves.” Said Kimimaro.

“True, we do.” Said Itachi, who went over to Gaara and untied him. Gaara’s first thought was to run and call Neji, but his plans were ruined when Itachi wrapped his arms around Gaara.

“It’s so nice to have you here, but now you’re going to go through pain tonight…and tomorrow. You’re not getting out of this.” Said Itachi, reaching down into Gaara’s pants.

“Let me go!” Yelled Gaara.

“Why should we?” Said Orochimaru. He grabbed Gaara’s chin and made the boy look at him. “We’re not letting you go until we’re done with you.” Orochimaru grinned.

“But I didn’t do an-“ Gaara was cut off by feeling pain in his chest and belly. He fell to the ground knowing it was bad.

Everyone was around him kicking, punching, throwing him on the floor, and forcing him against the walls. It only got worse. They started beating him with all kinds of tools and sharp things around the room.

Gaara couldn’t breathe very well. He stayed lying down, afraid to get up. He felt them hit him in the ribs over and over again. It was full force and he could hear cracks, but he dare not try to stop them. Then Itachi and Orochimaru both kick him in the head, causing the young boy to black out.

It was the next day and Neji hadn’t seen Gaara. He was hoping Gaara would be at home or at least at school. He went to Gaara’s house and knocked on the door. Kankurou answered the door.

“Neji, have you see Gaara? You know, since he went to Itachi’s to talk?” Asked Kankurou worried as hell.

“No, that’s why I came over. I hope he’s at school. I’m worried about him. What if Itachi did something horrible to him...” Neji couldn’t finish what he was saying.

“Don’t worry, Gaara will be fine. Look what my dad did to him over and over. I think he can handle himself until we find him. Didn’t you say that your phone has a tracker thing on it?” Asked Kankurou.

“Yeah, it does, but we will have to wait until after school.” Said Neji.

“Okay fine. Oh did you know that Orochimaru is back. I saw him walking to Itachi’s house with the others.” Said Kankurou.

“What! I don’t want to worry you, but Gaara might be in trouble. If he’s with Itachi then Orochimaru might already have his hands on him.” Said Neji.

“I hope you’re wrong Neji.” Said Kankurou.

“Yeah, me too.” Said Neji. He walked off and went to his car and got in.

He was driving to school thinking of Gaara. They just started going out again and now Gaara was nowhere to be found. He got to school and saw his friends standing outside. He got out of the car and walked over to them.

“Neji, did you find him yet?” Asked Hinata.

“No, I didn’t. Not even his brother knows where he is. Anyway, where are Sasuke, Naruto?” Asked Neji.

“Sasuke had to go home and get some clothes I guess. His brother’s lights were on and he told me to go to school without him and he would come later.” Said Naruto. ‘I can’t believe what his brother did to him.’ Naruto thought to himself.

“Did he tell you what Itachi did?” Asked Neji.

“He texted me to let me know.” Said Naruto.

“And Naruto told the rest of us.” Said Kiba.


“I thought you would dobe.”

Everyone looked at Sasuke and saw that he must have gotten in a fight with his brother. He had a lot of marks on him and he looked fatigued.

“Sasuke! What happen to you?!” Naruto yelled, freaking out.

“Nothing, got in a fight with my brother because...Neji I know that you and Gaara are going out again and I need to talk to you about something.” Said Sasuke.

“Why? What is wrong?” Asked Neji.

“Follow me.” Said Sasuke. Neji trailed Sasuke to the guys bathroom and Sasuke turned to Neji with an upset face. He looked like he was about to cry.

“W-what...is...it Sasuke?” Asked Neji, now worried.

“I tried to help him. They all were hitting and hurting him really bad.” Said Sasuke.

“What do you mean?” Said Neji staring at Sasuke.

“What I’m saying is, they were hurting Gaara. I walked in my room to get things for school. Then I heard Gaara screaming. I went to Itachi’s room and Orochimaru had Gaara pinned to the bed moving on top of him. I yelled which made Orochimaru stop and everyone looked at me. My brother grabbed me. H-he made me watch. They were cutting him with knives, kicking him, breaking his ribs and so many other things. He is so out of it, Neji. I think he’ll-” Sasuke couldn’t finish saying that.

“I need to help him.” Said Neji about to run out, but Sasuke stopped him.

“Don’t go I’m not done. Do you know where the Death Woods are?” Asked Sasuke.

“Yeah, why?” Asked Neji.

“Because by 9 tonight or sooner. You’ll fine Gaara there. If you go there now they’ll make you watch and throw you down the stairs just like they did to me.” Said Sasuke.

“How do you know they will take him there?” Asked Neji.


“Because no one will look there. Why do you think the last kid like Gaara isn’t around? He was beaten nearly to death and they threw him in the same place where they’re going to throw Gaara. That kid died because no one knew where he was, but we can save Gaara. Me, you and Naruto.” Said Sasuke.

“Is that why you always told Gaara that you didn’t want to lose anymore friends to Itachi?” Asked Neji.

“Yeah. Itachi did the same things to my last friend. Now he’s doing it Gaara now.” Said Sasuke. They were both were quiet for a while, but then they said bye to each other and went to their classes.

---

Meanwhile, Gaara couldn’t even move. Orochimaru and others held him down while Itachi thrust in and bit and sucked on his neck. Gaara shut himself inside his head during all this.

---

(Gaara’s POV)-(Roku: This is the only POV I’m doing. And it’s for my baby Gaara lol.)

The pain hurts so much. I can’t breath and I feel like I’m being ripped apart inside and out. I can’t even see right now, but I can feel them holding me down. I can’t even move. I want it to stop.

I want to be home with Neji. I need him more then anything in the world. I don’t even want my brother or sister. I want Neji. If I was with him now, this shit wouldn’t be happen. But no, I had to do this by myself and now look, I’m stuck here getting hurt and who knows what else. I want to go home.

What the hell? The fucking snake guy is putting his tough in mouth. I can’t even bit him or kiss back because too I’m weak. I think they’re trying to kill me.

Please…help me someone.

(End of POV)

---

Orochimaru got tired of trying to get Gaara to kiss him back. Even Itachi got tired of fucking him. They all stepped away from the boy who was just lying there. Itachi went up to the boy to see if they were done or not.

Itachi pushed down on his ribs and knew a few broken. He checked the cuts and saw that they were deep. There was a lot of blood all over Itachi’s bed.


They all went over the bed and saw that Gaara was worse then the other kids. He could barely breath and he stayed still, not daring to move or open his eye at all. He looked like he would stop breathing any minute.

“Get my truck ready so we can move him quickly. Orochimaru, Sasori, Kimimaro, stay with me.” Said Itachi. The others left the room, leaving a very weak and nearly dead Gaara.

“So what are we going to do? It’s day time.” Said Sasori.

“I know. Orochimaru help me wrap him up in these sheets.” Said Itachi.

“Okay.” Said Orochimaru. They wrapped Gaara’s body up and carried him down to the car. They put him in the truck and shut it. They told the others to meet them at school since it was lunchtime soon. Itachi and Orochimaru drove off the other way. They didn’t want their friends knowing where they were going to throw the body.

It was ten minutes later when they reached the Death Woods. Itachi went to the truck and pulled Gaara out, throwing him on the side of the road. After that they drove off and went to school.

---

Sasuke, Neji, Hinata, Kiba and Naruto were the only ones at the table. Sasuke saw that some of Itachi’s friends came back, but still no Itachi or Orochimaru. A great deal later Itachi and Orochimaru walked in, but Sasuke didn’t want to say anything to Neji about them being back. Then the bell rang and everyone got up.

“Neji stay here with Naruto. I need to find Kankurou.” Said Sasuke.

Sasuke went to find Kankurou and saw him at his locker. “ Kankurou, I need to talk to you.” Said Sasuke.

“What is it now?” Asked Kankurou.

“We need to get Gaara. I know where he is.” Said Sasuke.

“Okay.” Said Kankurou.


They ran back to the café and Sasuke told the others the plan. Then told them to get in a car. Neji already had his keys out so they used his car and Kankurou went to his to get Temari and tell her what Sasuke had said. The other three got in Neji’s car and went to get Gaara.

When they found him, Neji parked the car and ran to Gaara. He was still alive, but barley. Neji picked Gaara up and held Gaara in his arms, close to his chest.

“Gaara, say something. I know you’re in pain, but don’t give up Gaara. I’m here for you. Please Gaara say something to me.” Neji said almost in tears.

“Come on Neji. We need to get him to a hospital fast. It’s going to take an hour to get there. Pick him up and get in the back with him.” Said Sasuke.

They got in the car. Neji was sitting in the back still holding Gaara. Neji looked down at Gaara. His eyes were shut and his face looked so pale. Neji also saw bites and marks on his neck. He was afraid to move the sheets, he knew it was only going to get worse.

Sasuke pulled up to the sidewalk and ran into the building. A doctor and a nurse came out with a gurney. They picked Gaara up and put him on the bed to rush him into the ER.

---

They been there all day and now it was midnight. Temari, Kankurou, Sasuke and Naruto were asleep. Neji was the only one that was up when the doctor came into the waiting room. Neji looked up and saw her in front of him.

“Is he okay?” Neji asked. Everyone woke up when he said that.

“He’ll be okay. He’s got a few broken ribs. He also has deep cuts all over him. He would have died, if you didn’t bring him in when you did, but he’s okay for now. If you want to see him, one at a time can go in, but he might not be awake.” The doctor said.

“Okay.” They all nodded.

---

Temari was the first to go in and see Gaara. She walked in slowly. She saw Gaara lying on the bed. She walked over to him and held hand.

“Gaara, if you can hear me. Wake up or at least wake up for Neji. He’s been worried about you and he still hasn’t slept. I’m going now, the other want to see you as well..” Temari kissed Gaara’s forehead and walked out of the room. It was too painful to see her brother like that.

She went to the waiting room. Kankurou was the next to go in. He walked in and went up to the bed. He looked at his brother and saw all the cuts.


“I promise that I’ll get him back Gaara. You should have told me you were getting hurt. Neji told me the whole thing. I hope you get better and that this won’t ruin your life. I’m going. Sasuke and Naruto still have to come in. See ya. Neji is going to come in last that’s why we’re going so fast. I’m going now bye.” Said Kankurou. He walked out and went to the wait room. “Temari we’re leaving okay. We both have school. Do you two need a ride home?” Kankurou asked turning to Sasuke and Naruto.

“Yeah, we do. I’m not going to my house.” Said Sasuke.

“Okay, we’ll wait for you two.” Said Kankurou.

“I don’t want to sound mean, but I don’t want to go in.” Said Naruto.

Everyone looked at Neji he was still awake. They also saw him staring at nothing.

“Naruto, go with them. I need to make sure Neji gets home safe. He’s not looking so good.” Said Sasuke.

“Okay, Sasuke. Love you.” Said Naruto and went with Kankurou and Temari.

Sasuke looked at Neji who seemed out of it. He then walked to the room Gaara was in. He walked inside and saw Gaara lying in the bed with all kind of wires sticking out of him. He went up to the side of the bed. He looked down and saw marks and cuts from his brother.

“Sorry about my brother. I should have stopped you and told you the real truth about Itachi. He did the same thing to them that he did to you, but you’re alive. The others weren’t so lucky. They all died and it was my fault. Just like what happened to you. It’s my fault that I couldn’t stop my own brother.” Sasuke said.

“I-it’s...n-not y-your...fault, Sasuke. I s-should have listened to you and I didn’t.” Said Gaara weakly.

“Hey you’re awake. Temari and Kankurou were in here and they said you were asleep.” Said Sasuke.

“I’ve been awake. Is Neji okay?” Asked Gaara.

“Yeah he is. He is just really out of it. The whole time he’s been staring at nothing and he’s still awake. He wouldn’t sleep. I stayed behind because I might have to drive him home that’s how bad he is.” Said Sasuke.

“He’s t-that bad. I need to see him Sasuke. I need-“ He coughed. “-talk to him. Please can you-“ He coughed a second time. ”-tell him to come in here?” Asked Gaara.

“I’ll go get him. See ya Gaara.” Said Sasuke as he started to walk away.


Gaara coughed a third time. “Later Sasuke.” Said Gaara.

Sasuke walked out of the room. He went to the waiting room and Neji was still out of it. He went over to Neji and tapped him on the shoulder. Neji looked up at him.

“It’s your turn Neji. He’s awake and wants to talk to you.” Said Sasuke.

“...”

Neji got up and walked down the halls. He got to the door and opened it. Gaara was sitting up in his bed. Neji watched Gaara as he walked over to him. He tried to hide that he was tired and worried, but he knew Gaara would see right through him.

“Hey, Gaara. Are you...I mean do you feel any better?” Asked Neji.

Gaara couldn’t seem to stop coughing. “You should have gotten sleep, Neji. I’m okay-“ He coughed. “-now that you’re here.” Said Gaara.

“I know you don’t like the hospital but I didn’t want anything to happen to you. Like what happened to the other kids. Did Sasuke tell you about that?” Asked Neji.

“Yeah he did. I can’t-“ He coughed “-believe that they would-“ He coughed “-do that to other kids. I wanted the pain to stop, but it didn’t Neji. I-“ He cough. ”- am so weak that I’m falling asleep again. I don’t want to. I want to see you and talk to-“ He was cut off by a kiss.

“It’s okay Gaara. I’m here and you need to get some sleep or you won’t get better. Please go to sleep for me Gaara. I’ll be back later tomorrow. I love you.” Neji leaned down and kissed Gaara once again and left the room.

When Neji got back to Sasuke he kid was asleep. Neji walked over to him and woke him up. They got in the car and went to Neji’s house. Since it was really late Sasuke stayed at Neji’s house and slept on the floor while Neji was in his bed still awake.

‘At least he’s safe now. I can’t wait until he is better. I should kill Itachi, but I can’t. I have Gaara to take care of. It’s going to be hell when Gaara comes back to school. Itachi is going to be pissed off.’ Neji thought before falling asleep.

---


Four months later Gaara was allowed to come home. He wasn’t allowed in school until the doctor said so. He had to stay indoors and in bed. He didn’t like this one bit, but knew that he was still somewhat healing. He hated that his brother and sister were always coming in to check and see if he was okay or needed something. It really pissed him off. The last time his brother, sister came to check on him were the days when his father beat him to nothing. He remembered all those days. He even wrote about them. He use to hide in his room just so his father wouldn’t beat him, but he found out that if he hid or ran away, the beatings would be worse.

His friends came over everyday and told him about things that happened in school and about parties that are coming up. They also told him that Itachi and Orochimaru had a new kid to pick on. Neji also came over everyday to see if his boyfriend was okay and healing properly. He couldn’t wait until Gaara could go back to school. That would piss Itachi off, but Gaara’s friend were going to make sure that Itachi never touched Gaara again.

“Hey Gaara. How are you today?” Asked Neji.

“I’m good. I’ve been online all day and doing random things to pass time. I hope I get to go back to school and hang out with my friends soon. I miss that stuff.” Said Gaara.

“I know you do, but you’re still hurt yet. They let you out to come home. Not to come home and run around like a little kid.” Said Neji playfully.

“You’re a tease Neji. Can you come lay down with me and hold me like you always do?” Asked Gaara with the sad puppy look.

“Sure.” Said Neji. He got in bed with Gaara and laid down. As soon as he did this Gaara put his head on Neji’s chest and curled down like a little ball.

“Neji do you think they will try to hurt me again…if I go back to school?” Asked Gaara a little worried.

“Don’t worry Gaara, we’re all here for you. Everyone knows what happened and we promised to protect you when you come back.” Said Neji.

“But he’s too strong. I tried to fight back, but they all worked together and trapped me in the house with them.” Said Gaara.

“I know I should have stayed there, but I wasn’t thinking Gaara. I should have went in with you. Yeah, we both probably would have gotten hurt, but I could have saved you. It’s my fault you were in that house. I should have never taken you there. I’m so sor- Neji felt Gaara’s warm lips cover his.

“Don’t say that Neji. We both believed Itachi’s game. It was no one’s fault. We believed it was going to be easy, but then it turned into hell.” Said Gaara.


“The guy is fucking crazy. Not even Sasuke wants to live with him. Sasuke’s been living with Naruto and moved out of his house. I think his parents are afraid of him too. They don’t even come home since Sasuke moved in with Naruto. The only ones that live in the house are Itachi and his friends. Itachi thinks he’s the King and can do whatever he wants to whoever he picks. Itachi might be King, but he’s the king of all retards and people who can’t live by them self because they are to dumb to wok a TV remote.” Said Neji. They started laughing, but then stopped.

“He can’t even kill anyone. As soon as he knew I couldn’t move. He freaked out and told his friends to do this and that. They were running around like a chickens with their heads cut off. I was laughing so hard even if it wasn’t out loud.” Said Gaara.

“Yeah, it’s true Gaara.” He paused. “Did Temari or Kankurou come in yet?” Asked Neji.

“Yeah, they did already. They had me take my pills for my pain. My uncle is coming here, but I don’t know when. He found out what I did to my father and was happy about it. The doctor even saw the cut on my head from him hitting me with the crowbar that night.” Said Gaara.

“So they knew you did it. Are you going to get in trouble?” Asked Neji a little worry.

“No, I was protecting myself. So they told me I had a right to freak out like that. They said he could have killed me just in that one hit to the head with the crowbar, but it didn’t work like he planned it to. I was only fighting back.” Said Gaara.

“That’s good that they listened to you. I didn’t even want to know what would happened if I lost you again Gaara. Once was too hard, but again... I don’t know what I’ll do.” Said Neji.

“Me either.” He got quiet for a while. “So what’s going on in school right now?” Asked Gaara.

“Well, lunch has better food now since the know-it-all people complained too damn much. Our group of friends became the outcast people. Itachi and his friends are the bullies of the school now. A lot of other things changed too. No one bug us anymore, but the fan girls. They are trying to get me to come of there side.” Said Neji.

“Don’t leave me…I’ll give you anything you want when I get better.” Teased Gaara.

“I should hit you for that, but I can’t hit a weakling.” Neji joked.

“Whatever, then I won’t talk to you then.” Said Gaara.

“Gaara don’t be like that.” Said Neji.

“...” Gaara was playing around but Neji didn’t know.

“Gaara don’t be like this. Answer me Gaara.” Said Neji now sounding a little upset.

“...” Still nothing.


“Come on Gaara. This isn’t funny anymore. Talk to me now, Gaara.” Said Neji.

“About time you whined like a baby.” Said Gaara.

“Why’d you do that. You know I get upset over those kinds of things.” Said Neji.

“Yeah, I know. That’s why I do it to you. Baby.” Teased Gaara.

“Okay I think you need to go to bed. No more fun. I need to go to school and you need to...I don’t know. Do whatever you do.” Said Neji.

“Okay. I love you Neji.” Said Gaara.

“I love you too Gaara. Goodnight.” Said Neji.

Gaara fell asleep as soon as they were done talking. Neji was playing with his hair while he was asleep. He held Gaara close to his chest and kissed him on top of his head. Neji couldn’t believe that Gaara was alive. He knew when Gaara went back to school next week that Itachi and the others were going to be after him. Only this time he wasn’t going to let Gaara out of his sight. He and the others were going to stay with him so that Itachi and his friends couldn’t get near him in any way.

‘I love being with you Gaara. I’m happy that you’re alive and doing better. Next week you’ll be going back to school and we won’t let Itachi get you. I love you so much that I’ll give my own life for yours if I have to. I’ll take down Itachi and all of them. But for now you are here and you need me.’ After that he fell asleep.
