The Goth and The Jock

Later that day however Sasuke walked into the music store making sure Hidan had walked into the back before walking over to Gaara. "Hey hotty, do I know you?" He said with a smirk as he reached over the counter and tilted Gaara's head up and out of the book he was reading.

Gaara stiffened up and looked up at him. "S-Sasuke? What are you doing in h-here?" He asked pulling back but not having much room to get away from him.

The raven haired man pursed his lips together before saying, "now that isn't nice, I come to visit you and you question it?" he asked but then quickly added. "I just came to ask, why did you have that jock come and try to defend you? Come on you can't tell me you have gone low enough to fuck someone like him. Isn't he the one that upset you right after he met you?"

"What are you talking about? I didn't send Lee to defend me...I can handle myself.." Gaara muttered and looked down at the counter, but glanced back up when he noticed Sasuke had a black eye.

Sasuke folded his arms over his broad chest and sighed, "well then why the hell did he fight me.. it hurts to think that people think we should be that far away you know... I can get anyone I want but I keep coming back for you.. that should show some love.. you should consider yourself lucky for me running after you.." said the other person a little too high and mighty sounding.

Gaara just stared down at the counter then closed his eyes. "You don't love me.." Gaara said then glanced at the clock to see it was his lunch break, he sighed and leaped over the counter and walked out the door.

Sasuke followed him, "How could you say that.. You don't know how I think.." he stopped not wanting to pressure the redhead more then he needed to. "Gaara.. stop if you believe me.. please.." Sasuke said.

Gaara bit his lip and bowed his head as he kept walking, he accidentally walked into someone and stepped back. "Sorry..." He muttered only to flinch as his wrist was grabbed. "Aha! Found you. you tall friend is not around to back you up this time." It was the guy from before who had bruised the redheads wrist. 'You have got to be kidding me..' Gaara thought and tried to step back.

Sasuke found himself growling under his breath as he quickly walked over recognizing the guy. 'Hey, I thought i told you to fuck off before..." he said wrapping his arm around Gaara's waist. "I may not be with gaara anymore but that doesn't mean you all can go after him.."

Gaara blinked in surprise feeling really confused. 'Why are people just randomly sticking up for me now??' He thought and glanced up at Sasuke. "Why not? He's single and fuckable." The male replied setting his hands on his hips and limped when he took a step still sore from Lee's kick/

"Well.. we are back together now so touch him and I will fucking kill you.." Sasuke said glaring at the other male as his arms tightened around gaara pulling him back away from him and keeping him close to his body.

Gaara froze and the other male rolled his eyes and turned walking away. "What ever have fun with the little freak." He said over his shoulder.

"Fuck off!" Sasuke yelled to him then unwrapped his arms from Gaara's waist. "Sorry.. I'll just leave you the hell alone now, please try and be careful, i do not want you ending up with someone that will use you again.." He murmured under his breath.

Gaara bit his lip and then sighed and placed his hand over Sasuke's arm. 'What am I doing..' He thought, even though he was in love with Lee he still had small feelings for Sasuke.

Sasuke raised an eye brow and glanced at him, "what is it Gaara-koi..?" He asked quietly as he couldn't help but smile at Gaara's touch.

"I'm confused you just told him....um thanks for helping me.." Gaara said lightly gripping Sasuke's sleeve.

Sasuke reached his hand up and gently rubbed Gaara's cheek, "I only told him that so he would leave you alone.. I wouldn't go out with you unless you wanted me back.." He said in a soft voice.

Gaara flinched but then slowly relaxed. "I...I'm so confused right now..." He said wanting the pain in his heart to go away.

"Well.. If you do not want me back that is perfectly fine, but either way I am going to treat you as my boyfriend so.. either we can be publicly a couple or.." Sasuke smirked "i just force you to love me," He said. Sasuke may have been being a bit harsh, but he really wanted to be with the redhead.

Gaara blushed faintly and frowned. "How do you force someone to love you?" He said with a sweat drop then looked down at his watch. "I only have half a hour of lunch left.." He muttered.

"Then come on, I will buy you lunch," Sasuke said waling back to the redhead wrapping his arm around him and leading him off.
Meanwhile will Lee. The black haired male sighed walking down the street next to his blond friend. Ino ran up to Naruto, "Naruto! You will not believe it, apparently Gaara and Sasuke are dating again. I understand the freak goth loving each other but didn't you say you don't want them like.. together?" Ino said. Upon hearing this Lee winced and kept walking letting the two talk but still ease dropping in.

"WHAT?! How could Gaara get back with him after what happened! Come on take me to where they are!" Naruto demanded and started to run but ran into Sakura. "Ow! Watch it!" She snapped and walked around him and up to Lee, since Lee was now the best player on his team a lot of girls wanted to date him. "Hi Lee.." She said smiling up at him.

Lee didn't want to speak with Sakura, to tell the truth e wanted to go with Naruto ad see what the hell Ino was talking about. But Sakura was one of the most popular girls, and him being friends with her was more important then spending time with Gaara. gaara probably didn't even want him around if Sasuke was around anyways, not after what Lee did the other day. "Hey Sakura.." He murmured forcing his happy grin to come out as he walked with her.

Naruto ran off with Ino and Sakura stepped closer to Lee. "Sooo.. you seeing anyone?" She asked and grabbed his arm hugging it to her chest.

Lee forced his smile to stay even though e was worried about gaara as he responded. "Sakura, you know I am single, if I was not it would already be around town."

"Well you know if you and me dated you would be so much more popular." Sakura said and pulled Lee closer to her.

The teenager felt odd being so close to the pink haired girl but he went along with it. 'Gaara does not love you back Lee.. he is with Sasuke.. plus.. Sakura will make even more people your best friends..' He thought to himself as his arm wrapped around Sakura's waist. "Are you asking me out Sakura?"

"Well duh." Sakura said and traced a patten on his shoulder. She started to pull on his arm. "Come on take me on a date!" She said pouting.

"Alright alright," lee said chuckling as he lead Sakura away to take her on a date.
A few weeks later both Lee and Gaara had been dating their 'loves' rarely ever spending time with each other. Lee personally didn't know if they were avoiding each other or it was just coincidence. But one day both were at home and bored since Naruto had left for a game. "So.. How are things with Sasuke..?" Lee asked trying to get some sort of conversation going with the redhead.

Gaara glanced up at Lee then looked down. 'Not happy at all cuz its not you..' He thought and stood up. "I am gonna go take a shower.." He muttered and got off the couch and walked into the bathroom. He sighed and stepped into the shower. After the shower he stepped out of the bathroom in just a towel forgetting Lee was there.

Lee turned red seeing the small boy come out only having one piece of cloth covering him. He immediately looked away but he could still see the image of the thin framed boy yet well built the water running down his body. Lee shivered. 'No.. You like Sakura.. You are with Sakura..' He continued to repeat to himself as he stared a little too intensely at a pillow on the couch.

Gaara blinked and turned his head to look in the living room, he blushed when he saw Lee and tried to walk quickly into Naruto's room but ended up tripping over the blonds roller stakes that were sitting in the middle of the floor, he was able to turn slightly but ended up slamming into the wall. "Owww fucking skates!" He said and leaned on the wall only to gasp when his towel slipped off his waist.

Lee glanced over and turned even redder. 'Lee.. do not think like that!' His mind screamed but he refused to listen. How could the other boy help himself? He walked over and pressed Gaara's body harder against the wall and closed his eyes breathing out. "I am sorry Gaara-kun.. I can not help this..'" before he pressed his lips to the smaller males.

Gaara gasped in surprise and his eyes shut tightly as he turned a red that matched. 'W-What? Why is h-he...neh he is a really good kisser..' He tried hard to resist but his feelings got the better of him and he awkwardly kissed back, he felt his heart was beating so fast he was sure Lee could hear it.

'I should not be doing this.. Sakura is dating me.. but.. ugh I can not help it..' Lee thought to himself. He placed his hand's on the other person's bare hips and tilted his head to kiss him a little deeper.

Gaara suddenly remembered where his towel was and turned even redder, he squirmed a little and tried to use his foot to move the towel closer to him. His hands trembled a little as he placed them on Lee's shoulders and tried to stay calm.

Lee felt the hands on his shoulders and freaked thinking gaara was trying to push him away so he pulled back. "I am so sorry.. I uhh.. i think I should go now.. I know you are dating Sasuke.. sorry.. sorry sorry.." Lee murmured rambling along as he refused to look gaara in the face afraid he would be upset mad or ashamed of Lee.

Gaara took this chance to pick up his towel and wrap it around his waist tightly, he looked back up at Lee and blushed and placed his hands on the older males chest lightly gripping his shirt. "D-don't be...s-sorry.." He murmured staring down at the carpet.

Lee glanced back at Gaara and reached up placing his hands on the smaller ones, "Why... I love you.. but you do not.. well love me back... You are with Sasuke and I am.. with S-Sakura.." Lee struggled to say it, not wanting it to be true. His brown eyes fluttered away from Gaara's face once more.

Gaara leaned forward and rested his forehead on Lee's chest. "I...Lee.. I do...b-but your reputation..." Gaara bit hard on his lip and closed his eyes again.

Lee's eyes widened, "Gaara.. screw my reputation if it means I can be with you.. I was wrong about you all these years ago.. you really are a good person.. so sweet.. gentle, kind, beautiful.. perfect for me.. perfect in every which way.." Lee murmured as he rubbed Gaara's cheek with a loving intent.

Gaara felt his eyes burn and hugged the older male tightly. "D-Do you r-really..mean t-that..? But you worked so hard for it..if anyone s-saw me near you they would give you a h-hard time.." He whispered and looked up into Lee's eyes.

"If they can not except who I love then they are not true friends.." Lee stated as he rest his head on top of Gaara's.

What about Sakura...you like her don't you?" Gaara asked and closed his eyes resting his head on Lee's chest, he felt calmer as he listened to his heart beat.

"Sakura.. well.. after I heard you and Sasuke were together I figured I had no choice.. and.. well she then said I would have more reputation if I date her so... yeah... you understand.." Lee said rubbing Gaara's bareback, tracing small patterns.

Gaara shivered at the feeling of Lee touching his skin and blushed. "T-Things with me and Sasuke are really confusing...I don't think I could..love him again after what happened.." He mummed and closed his eyes thinking.

"What did he even do..? You do not have to tell me if you do not want to..." Lee said to him as he moved his fingers up Gaara's spine, feeling the shivers going up the small boys body.

Gaara winced but shivered again at the touch. "I'm n-not ready to tell you t-that yet.." Gaara said and leaned into the older male. "What..are we gonna do now..whats gonna happen..?" He asked.

"I think we should go join everyone and I should break up with Sakura.." Lee murmured as he nuzzled gaara then let go of him. "And you can tell me when ever you want.."

Gaara blushed and rubbed his neck. "Can I get dressed first.." He said awkwardly thinking of what he would tell Sasuke.

"Well duh," lee said chuckling as he kissed Gaara's forehead. "I er.. Gaara.. I// I love you.." He muttered. 'Oh no did I say that too soon??' Lee thought quickly.

Gaara blushed and got onto his tip toes to kiss Lee's cheek and shyly replied. "L-Love you to.." He then went into Naruto's room and got dressed.
