Chapter 2: Why Gaara?

Sasuke stood in place staring at the spot his blonde was just standing, in his arms. This wasn't right, it couldn't be right. Naruto never just disappeared from his arms. Naruto was never taken from his arms. No, Naruto only left his embrace when he let go and not a moment sooner. So why was his blonde not in front of him? Why couldn't he feel his Dobe's warmth?

"Gaara?" Neji said softly as he watched his boyfriend drag the blonde away.

Sasuke looked up. That's right, Sabaku took his blonde away from him. Glaring Sasuke started to follow after them. Neji jumped up and trailed after Sasuke. There was no way Sasuke was going to let Gaara get between him and his blonde! Naruto was his dammit, he finally got him back. Sure he didn't completely understand why Naruto was here in the first place, but that didn't matter. All that mattered was the fact that Naruto was here, in Konoha. Which meant Naruto wasn't gone anymore. Sasuke could have his blonde!

Sasuke quickly turned the corner in the hall and pushed open two double doors leading outside. His ears instantly met with the musical voice of his Naruto.

"What on earth is the big deal Gaara?" Naruto asked confused.

"You never said the one you were with over the summer was Uchiha Sasuke!" Gaara growled.

"So?" Naruto lifted an eyebrow. "It isn't like you ever mentioned you were dating a Hyuuga. So why should I mention the person I was seeing is an Uchiha?" Sasuke didn't like how Naruto put their relationship in the past tense, but he wanted to see where this conversation was going so he stayed back.

"I told you about Neji," Gaara defended.

"Yes, you said you were dating a guy by the name of Neji. You never said he was a Hyuuga," Naruto countered.

"Why does it matter?" Gaara questioned.

"It doesn't!" Naruto stated. "So why should it matter if I love an Uchiha?!"

"Because!" Gaara bit out.

"That isn't an answer Gaara!" Naruto yelled.

"He hasn't even tried to get a hold of you since you guys parted," Gaara yelled back. "He ignored your existence for a month! Then when you appear in front of him he kisses you just like that!"

"My phone got smashed!" Naruto explained. "There was no way for him to call me! I couldn't even recover his number to give him my new one!"

"That is no excuse!" Gaara said crossing his arms.

"Gaara you're being unreasonable," said Neji stepping forward. Gaara spun around his eyes widening slightly at the sight of his boyfriend. Then they landed on Sasuke and narrowed to slits. "Naruto says his phone was destroyed, and you know Sasuke's been miserable since he got back from Suna. Doesn't that count for something?"

Gaara turned his gaze away from Sasuke and looked at Neji. "It does, I guess," Gaara admitted, only because it was Neji stating the obvious.

Sasuke frowned. Why would Gaara so willingly admit to being wrong for Neji but not for his cousin? Then Sasuke shook that thought away. He didn't care who got the redhead to calm down, as long as he did. Sasuke had a funny feeling that if Gaara didn't accept their relationship things would be very difficult for him and Naruto. As proof Naruto was making no move to get closer to Sasuke, despite the longing in his blue eyes. Sasuke returned the look wanting nothing more than to have Naruto back in his arms. Curse that evil redhead for doing the unthinkable! No one takes an Uchiha's significant other from them!

"So you think you could cut Sasuke a little slack?" Neji asked.

"No," Gaara said his arms still crossed against his chest and looking away.

Neji sighed. "Really, sometimes I wonder who it is you're dating?"

Gaara looked over to Neji with a surprised expression. "What do you mean?"

Neji's eyes looked pained. "I mean Gaara, you're acting like a jealous lover. How do you think that makes me feel?" Gaara went to deny the accusation but Neji held up his hand. "I don't want to hear it." He turned and walked away.

Gaara's eyes slowly grew in size until he saw Neji turn the corner. "Wait Neji!" Gaara called and ran after him.

Sasuke wanted to laugh. He had seen the conspirators smirk that was playing across Neji's lips as he walked away. The Hyuuga really was something else. Pushing that aside Sasuke allowed his midnight gaze to travel back to Naruto's oceanic one. He smiled and held out his arms. Naruto's face lit up and he ran into them. Sasuke enclosed Naruto in a tight embrace, making sure no one could take him away again.

"God I missed you," Sasuke whispered. "You aren't allowed to leave me ever again. I'm never letting you go."

Naruto giggled burying closer to Sasuke. "Well though I love that idea, you're going to have to release me at some point." Sasuke let out a low growl signaling exactly what he thought of that idea. Like hell he would let Naruto go again. Naruto just giggled again. Looking up he kissed Sasuke lightly. "I have to go to class after lunch and so do you," Naruto explained.

Sasuke felt like an idiot. Of course that is what he meant by that. Sasuke thought Naruto meant in relationship wise. Then Sasuke remembered, they technically broke up this summer! Damn! "Naruto," Sasuke said softly using one hand to keep Naruto's head tilted back so he could look into those peerless blue pools he loves so much.

"Yes Sasuke?" Naruto whispered. He was drowning in the sea of black that was Sasuke's eyes, and he wasn't even trying to fight it.

"Will you be my boyfriend?" Sasuke asked.

"Of course," Naruto answered.

Sasuke wasted no time in sealing the deal with a kiss. Naruto's arms went up and circled around Sasuke's neck pulling him down so the kiss could be deepened. Their lips moved against the other's in a practiced manner they had grown addicted to over the summer. Sasuke wanted more, he needed to taste his blonde. Slipping his tongue out, he ran it across Naruto's bottom lip. He was entirely pleased when his Dobe opened up for him. Sasuke took his time in becoming reacquainted with Naruto.

"Ahem." The two teens broke apart and faced a glaring Gaara and smirking Neji. Sasuke wanted to growl. Couldn't the stupid Hyuuga keep Sabaku busy for another ten minutes?! Did they have to appear now? Now when he was just starting to satisfy his hunger for his blonde. "Are you two done?" Gaara asked.

"No," Sasuke remarked, his arms tightening around Naruto. Gaara had already pulled him away once, no telling if he would try it a second time.

Gaara sighed, "Okay look. I over reacted. I admit it. But I was just shocked to see Naruto kiss someone so willingly! I mean he's always rejected anyone who's approached him. So you can't blame me."

"Yes I can," Sasuke retorted. He earned a glare from Gaara and a jab in the shoulder from Naruto. "What the hell Dobe?"

"He's trying to apologize. Stop being such a Teme," Naruto warned.

Sasuke sighed. Oh the things he did for his blonde. "Fine," Sasuke said in defeat. God he was so glad Naruto was worth laying down his pride.

Gaara smirked and turned around to Neji. The taller brunet smiled down at his little redhead and led him back into the cafeteria. This left Sasuke and Naruto alone again, but this time Naruto had broken out of Sasuke's arms. Sasuke was about to complain when he felt his fingers interlace with Naruto's. "Come on Teme, I'm starving!"

Sasuke smirked, "What do you want?"

"Hmm," Naruto appeared thoughtful, "Ramen!"

Sasuke laughed softly, "Sorry they don't have that. But if you settle for a hamburger now, I'll take you out after school."

"Yay!" Naruto said jumping up and down.

The two teens walked into the cafeteria and rejoined Sasuke's friends. For the rest of lunch Sasuke couldn't remove the feeling of eyes watching him. When he turned around he only saw the usual fan-girls looking at him. Five minutes before the bell for the next period rang it clicked. His fan club was not going to be happy about Naruto.
