A Caring brother 4
First off! This is NOT Beta-read and English is not my native language so please bare with me. The two betas I have are mia and loa atm. I have the tendency to run long sentences here and there but please try not to mind that! I try my best when my muse hits me so please be gentle when it comes to grammar and sentence issues :p

"What did he do?"
The soft circling motion on his back by Kankuro's hand began to calm him down more and more but he felt he just wanted to remain in the embrace as if it was a 'now or never' or a 'once in a lifetime'-chance to be completely out of character – society masks off.
"…H-he… he attacked the village, making me watch every kill without being able to do anything… I was frozen where I stood... He ripped limbs off and ate them while the villagers were still alive and…and he killed everybody… he…nh… he said he wanted revenge…. On me… told me I was all alone in the world now and he would make sure he'd kill anyone I cared for even the slightest... h-he said … no one cared about me other than trying…to….to kill me… right before he attacked me… I… I had no control over him…. None… he swallowed me whole…and… nh… that's… where… that's where it all started… complete hell….."
He swallowed at the remark, still mumbling into Kankuro's shoulder while the strong comforting arms remained around him, his big brother listening on Gaara's ramble about his bad dream in silence, allowing his usually so quiet baby brother to talk.
"… I was thrown into an abyss of… of nothing, I was floating in nothing while he told me I was damned to be abandoned no matter how much I strived for the opposite… then he showed me how he killed every single person I care about as slow and painful as he possibly could while I could do nothing… Nothing!"
He paused for a moment and tried to hide a sob by making an attempt of choking it.
"… every person I've dared myself to care for…"
He added with a half broken voice while struggling with the sobbing. Kankuro listened and was just about to answer when Gaara spoke again.
"…it's so quiet… so silent in my head… it's… it's driving me crazy, Kankuro..! I don't know what to do!"
His voice told the big brother that Gaara wanted to panic and if he could, he'd run away far, far from the silence and the dark threats of his mind.
"… You're not alone Gaara… you never will be. I'll be here for as long as you'll have me, as will Temari… and you have that Uzumaki Naruto from Konoha too. Not to mention the entire village of Suna now days.."
"But that's just it!"
Gaara looked up into his brother's eyes all of a sudden, the evidence was clear that he had been crying due to the puffiness of his dark eyelids.
"What is?"
"Shukaku killed everyone just to make sure I would remain alone and…and…."
His voice fell silent the moment he realized himself that he was getting worked up and his eyes fell to the floor.
"and?"
"…and as abandoned as I was after I killed uncle Yashamaru …."
Gaara closed his eyes and Kankuro wrapped his right arm around Gaara's head, pulling him closer into an embrace again while gently rubbing the back of his head.
"That… was just a dream, Gaara… I'm here still and Temari is sleeping in her room too. Suna is still here as well, I just finished my rounds… Nothing's going to happen, not while I'm on watch…"
The painted warrior smiled softly and kissed the top of his brother's head without thinking. That caused Gaara to look up at him again with questioning eyes asking why he did that by a light frown of his right non-existent eyebrow.
"… eh… it's a sign of affection… you know… for people you care about?"
"… Why do you care Kankuro? After everything I put you and Temari through…"
"Because… you're our brother and siblings stick together. Blood is thicker than water and blood bonds are impossible to break."
"No they're not…"
"mmh?"
"They're breakable… if you kill…"
Gaara remarked but Kankuro shook his head.
"No… not even death can break blood bonds, Gaara."
The redhead paused and looked up at his brother again with a look that went straight into Kankuro's heart.
"Why?"
"Because no matter if you are alive or dead, you still have relations to that person that has moved on to the next world. That person is and has a part of you with them just as you have a part of them in you. We all share the same blood."
He paused a moment to see if Gaara followed what he was talking about but the light frown on his baby brother's eyebrow showed him he didn't.
"It's like… like branches of a tree. No matter how many branches you break of, the bud of that broken branch is still there to show where it has once been and by that revealing the kinship to the tree no matter if it's attached to the smallest of branches and is called a twig, or if it's attached to the trunk itself."
Gaara slowly nodded against his shoulder, understanding rather well when he explained it like that.
"nh…"
Was the short answer to his explanation before Gaara lowered his head to Kankuro's shoulder once more, soon followed by another sigh and a choked sob.
"Gaara…"
He said softly, rubbing his brother's hair again.
