~Flash Forward: the morning~



Gaara slowly opened his eyes and sat up rubbing his forehead blinking in the early morning light.



Lee was downstairs and making breakfast for his love, grinning as he did so.



Gaara looked around the room then sweat dropped remembering his clothes were down stairs. "This is gonna be hard.." He muttered and looked at the dresser next to him.



Lee placed the food he made onto plates and set them on the table. He sighed softly and smiled thinking of if he should go wake his love or not.



Gaara slipped out of the bed and opened the dresser sweat dropping looking at all the spandex. "Uh heh no..." he said and pulled out a t- shirt.



He decided against it and walked over getting a rag starting to clean the counter off, waiting for Gaara to wake up because he didn’t know he was awake.



Gaara pulled the t-shirt on over his head and shut the dresser, he stepped away from it then gasped as his elbow knocked into the lamp next to Lee's bed and summoned his sand fast to catch it.



Lee heard the bumb and blinked calling up softly, "Gaara-kun are you awake? " He asked moving to the door frame of the kitchen.



Gaara sweat dropped and pulled the t-shirt down lower since it was pretty big on him. "Y-Yeah!" He called back and set the lamp back next to the bed on the night stand.



"I made breakfast so come down when you can," Yelled the leaf ninja not even thinking about the fact he had put Gaara's clothes in the wash moments before. He went back to the table and filled two glasses with tea that he had made on the stove.



Gaara sneaked out of the room and made his way down the stairs as quietly as he could then walked into the living room. ‘Ok I'll just get my clothes and go back up stairs and dress...wait where are they?’ Gaara thought and walked around the couch.



Lee smiled seeing that the redhead was in the living room and walked over to the door frame. "Hey Gaara-kun ..." Lee's eyes widened looking at the redhead only wearing his shirt, that looked too big on him but made him look adorable. Lee brought his hand up and covered his nose feeling a bit of blood start to run down it and he raised an eye brow, "U-Umm Gaara-kun what are you doing..? " He asked slowly.



"AH!" Gaara yelled and spun around. "Oh uh well...where are my c-clothes?? " Gaara asked blushing and tugging the t-shirt lower, looking embarrassed.



Lee quickly whipped the blood away and turned around, "S-S-Sorry.. they were covered in s-sand so I put them i-in the wash.." Lee said, rubbing the back of his head.



"They are always covered in sand Lee-kun...Gaara of the desert remember." Gaara said with a sweat drop and blinked as the t-shirt slide off his shoulder.



"Y-Yeah I know.. but.. I f-figured you would be staying for a bit s-so why not have fresh clean c-clothes? " Lee muttered and walked into the kitchen sitting at the table. "They should be d- done by the time we get done eating so j- .." He stopped when he looked up seeing the shirt slide off Gaara's shoulder and he blushed dark again looking away, "J-Just eat.." He stuttered out.



Gaara looked down shyly and walked over awkwardly sitting at the table. "T-Thanks for making food L-Lee-kun.." Gaara said and glanced at the older boy.



Lee looked at his plate and pushed his food around with his fork, "Welcome Gaara-kun," he muttered trying to make his blush disappear.



Gaara suddenly gasped and grabbed the leaf ninja's hand. "You’re bleeding! There’s blood on your hand." The sand ninja said and started to pull at the wrappings around the older boys arm.



Lee felt his face heat up and he pulled his hand away, whipping the blood off on his spandex, "N-No just from m-my nose it is ok," He said with a sweat drop.



Gaara blinked then placed his hand on his knee and leaned up to look closer at Lee's face. "Well it looks ok why would it be bleeding?" Gaara asked tilting his head slightly.



The blush on Lee's face grew darker as he leaned back from the redhead, "N-N-No reason." He stuttered awkwardly, bringing a hand up to gently push on the younger boy's chest to get him to lean back.



Gaara made a sound as he was pushed back and pouted a little wanting to know what was wrong with the leaf ninja.



Lee's face heated up even more hearing the noise the sand ninja made and he looked to the side, "I a-am ok.. j-just go back t-to your seat.." He mumbled.



Gaara shrugged then kissed Lee on the cheek, he sat back down and started eating not noticing the shirt had slide of his shoulder again.



Lee shifted uncomfortable in his chair then looked down at the table again. He scooted closer to the table so his lap was under it in case the red head walked by. 'Damn.. not the best time to wear spandex when he is around..' He thought to himself awkwardly picking his fork back up.



Gaara finished eating then rested his head on the older boys shoulder. "You’re a good cook Lee-kun." He said and folded his arms letting out a relaxed sigh.



"G-Glad you like it," Lee said finishing up his plate as well. He stood up and took their plates to the sink starting to wash them, shifting awkwardly on his feet.



"Are you ok Lee? You’re acting weird." Gaara said and tugged the t-shirt lower again.



"Yeah I am fine," Lee said rubbing the back of his neck. "Umm.. why do you not go see if your clothes are done drying? " He said trying to get the redhead out of the room so he could walk by.



"I don't know where the washer is.." Gaara said staring at the older boy, tilting his head a little getting confused on how the leaf ninja was acting.



"Umm.. down the hallway next to the stairs," He said leaning into the counter a little trying to keep his lap hidden.



Gaara got out of his chair and walked down the hall and into the room where the washer was. “Huh…these are fancy..” He muttered looking at the washer and dryer, both being bright green.
