kawaiicrimsonkitsune: Hey thanks, I was wondering about those, I hoped someone would point it out!!
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Gaara turned towards him fully, his eyes fixated on him.
“You dwell so much on the past,” he said, taking a step forward. “Why?”
Naruto looked away from him and crossed his arms as he stared across the lake, taking in the stillness it presented. It belied everything he was feeling at the moment—all the turmoil and pain.
“I can’t let him go,” Naruto said finally, breaking through the silence. “It shouldn’t have ended the way it did. He didn’t deserve to die.” He was whispering now, his eyes looking up to the sky. If Naruto noticed him moving closer, he didn’t acknowledge him, and the quiet stretched between them once again. Gaara waited patiently and suddenly the blue cerulean gaze locked onto his.
“They didn’t even place his name on the stone. That’s why I go everyday.” His statement cut through the evening air, shattering the silence.
“I couldn’t love him. I couldn’t hate him,” Naruto breathed deep, his arms crossed over his chest in self-assertion even though his face was clouded in self-doubt. The Kazekage didn’t break his stare from Naruto even when the blonde Hokage looked to the ground.
“Is that what you wanted to know?” he asked in an almost small voice.
Gaara had taken another step forward. He was within arm’s reach of the blonde.
“No,” was his response and Naruto looked up sharply; emotions he didn’t recognize or knew Gaara possessed flickered over the usually passive face. Worry, of all things. For what? Him?
“Then what? I’m tired of this game you’ve been playing for the past three years,” Naruto spat, anger flaring through his person. How easily he had just told Gaara things he never told anyone else. It had to be the surroundings…why else was he so comfortable all of a sudden with the other leader?
“I don’t play games. I never have and certainly not with you,” Gaara responded with surprise at the notion. Naruto glared at him, about to retort, but the redhead raised his hand up a bit and Naruto felt it—Kiba wasn’t far away at all. He sighed.
“I told you, Kiba, Akamaru needs a bath,” he said loudly, turning towards the woods at his back.
“Hokage…you had asked me to report back to you after I showed Kankurou-san and Tai-san to their rooms,” Kiba amended, knowing he had overheard more than he should have.
“Kiba, I wanted to you to escort…” Naruto stopped, feeling the buzz of chakra behind him He knew in an instant that the Kazekage was gone. Kiba’s eyes had gone wide as he stared behind him.
“Naruto-sama…”
“I guess you’ll be escorting me back to the village,” Naruto said with a rueful smile. The large dog at Kiba’s side whined over at his master then back at the Hokage.
“Hokage-sama…I didn’t mean to be privy to your conversation…”
“It’s fine. At some point or another, someone was bound to hear,” Naruto replied, waving off the professionalism Kiba was using, which never suited the other man anyway.

“I don’t play games. I never have and certainly not with you…”
Naruto paced in the Hokage’s office, the words flooding through his mind. He had let his guard down…he swore to never tell another living soul! A scroll was held tightly in his hand as he ignored its contents.
“Hokage-sama, Morino Ibiki has sent a message. He wishes to speak to you,” a soft voice said from his door. Naruto nodded distractedly. It was late and he hadn’t left the offices for home. He knew that he wouldn’t be able to sleep.
“Get back to him and let him know I’ll be right there,” he replied distractedly. There was another knock, and Naruto looked up from the scroll he was trying to finish reading while pacing the office to see the same young ninja looking over at him.
“The Kazekage is here. He wishes to accompany you to the holding cells.”
“What?!” he asked, outraged and almost dropping the scroll, but she had again disappeared. He put the scroll on his desk and marched to the door. After disappearing from the lakeside the Suna leader hadn’t removed himself from the quarters he had been provided with. He opened the door, not surprised to find the red-headed leader gazing solidly at him, blocking the doorway.
“You know, Gaara, this is exactly what I meant about playing games,” he whispered to the Kazekage. The eyes met his and Gaara took a step forward, invading his personal space.
“I just want you to trust me,” he answered evenly, and Naruto’s eyes went wide at the statement.
“W-what are doing teme...come on, get off…”Naruto pushed at the chest, but the raven-headed teen leaned in suddenly, pinning his hands to the ground.
“Trust me, dobe. It’ll feel good.” A nip at his bottom lip and Naruto gasped, the tongue invading his mouth for a brutal kiss. A whimper escaped the back of his throat as a knee pushed up into his groin, the tongue flicking up to the roof of his mouth, eliciting another groan of approval. Sasuke broke the kiss, laving his tongue along the three whisker-like scars on his face, letting his hot breath roll across his neck and ear.
“You don’t want me to stop, do you?” he purred, letting go of one hand to thrust his own under Naruto’s tank to caress his skin.
“I-I…n-no….” Naruto replied…
“Naruto?”
Naruto snapped back to reality at the wash of warm breath, the Kazekage’s face inches away from his own. He inhaled sharply.
“Do you?” Gaara asked, his hand was resting gently on his forearm, but it was his eyes that kept the blonde from jerking back.
“Do I what?” he managed.
“Do you trust me?” the redhead let the question roll of his tongue, his breath washing over Naruto’s mouth as the grip on his arm tightened.
“I…” Naruto started, the pale-green eyes daring him to run away just like his always did, but there was no mocking superiority in them.
“Gaara—” The redhead made his move, cutting him off and pressing his lips to his own. It felt as if time had stood still for the seconds of guilty enjoyment, but Naruto yanked back, and in a whirl of blinding sand, the Kazekage vanished.
“Hoshi” he called weakly out to the young ninja presiding at the desk around the corner. The young women appeared in front of him with a smile. He put a hand on the door frame, swallowing hard.
“Yes, Hokage-sama?” she asked kindly.
“Can you please get a message to Morino Ibiki that I will discuss the prisoner matters tomorrow morning?”
He closed the office behind him, walking through the building and hearing a concerned “Are you alright?” from Hoshi.
“I’m fine. Just make sure he knows I will see him in the morning,” He gave her a hasty wave and exhaled slowly as he made it outside. The cool night air felt pleasant over his features, but his mind was on overdrive. The Kazekage. Sabaku no Gaara. The Terror of Suna had kissed him. His reeling mind left no room for any other thoughts, and his feet led him through the well-trodden path towards the Memorial Stones. He needed to think.
