Assignement 4 (Fan Fiction and Yaoi)

He at looked himself in the mirror. He had not gone to bed until really late due to the delegation from the Hidden Sand village wanted to go out the night before, and he was black under his eyes, it looked like he hadn’t slept in days. He looked at his so characteristically pineapple pony tail that had for sure got a proper beating during the night. He pulled in it and like a spring it popped back up again, looking like normal. He looked over his shoulder and saw that something was moving around under the sheets.
- What the fuck? How troublesome.
He went over and saw a small glimpse of red-brown hair sticking up from under the duvet. He sat on top of the duvet and lied down, the person under it waking up from the pressure of his body and trying to get loose.
- Gotcha! Didn’t I?
- Let me go!
From under the sheet a pair of green eyes with loads of make-up looked on him.
- You’re heavy! Get off me!
- That was for sure not what I heard last night was it… Gaara.
- Well, now it is. You Leaf Village people really need to be put on a diet!
- Or what?
- Or you will end up like Chouji!
- Don’t say that. He’s just a bit chubby that’s all! And by the way. If he didn’t look like that, hes ninja techniques would be rather worthless.
Gaara took that into consideration and decided it was the most common sense.
- Shika, what’s the time?
- I’d say… Around… Too early.
- Well, I guess I should be going anyway. We are leaving to go back to the Wind Country before noon.
Shikamaru sat down behind Gaara and put his arms around him. He snuggled down his nose in Gaara’s neck and could feel a faint smell of warm sand. He had never thought this was going to happen. Everyone had thought he was going to go out with Gaara’s elder sister Temari, because they were working a lot together, but it had from Shikamaru’s side only been a way to get what he wanted, and he had it here, in his arms and didn’t want to give it yet really. The whole atmosphere was broken by the blonde thunderstorm that entered the room without knocking.
- Shikamaru! They have a problem outside! Gaara is missing! It might be the Akatsuki… Oh…
- How troublesome. No worries Naruto. Gaaras been with me, go and tell them he’s alright and will soon be down with the others.
- O- o- Okay.
Naruto was looking at his two friends in the bed, tightly cuddled up together. He closed the door behind him and they heard how he was running down the stairs. Most probably to tell the others what he had seen.
- Are you not afraid of what they will say?
- No, why should I be? I mean, compared to Naruto’s obsession on getting Sasuke back from Orochimaru, how bad can this be? You’re the one who should be afraid, you’re the head of a whole country, I’m just a teacher at the Academy.
Gaara looked at Shikamaru and kissed him softly on the ear. They went up and both got dressed slowly. Knowing they would not see each other for a while because Gaara had work to do back home and Shikamaru had his work at the Ninja Academy and occasional missions now and then. He knew he had been having a lot to do with the people from the Sand Village before because the truce and he being the most suited to work with this according to Tsunade.
- Hey Gaara, maybe I could convince Tsunade that she could send me over a lot more. Wouldn’t that be a great idea?
Gaara looked at him as he was putting his sand gourd back onto his back. He looked away and went out in the kitchen. He took a glass jar and poured some of the sand in it.
- To remember.
Shikamaru took the glass jar and looked at the sand, moving around in the shape of two kids playing.
- It’s your chakra moving them? Isn’t it?
Gaara nodded, walking towards the door, Shikamaru putting the jar down on a table.
- But, won’t the chakra disappear some time?
Gaara looked back over his shoulder and looked straight into Shikamaru’s eyes and left down the stairs. Shikamaru not knowing what to do. He looked at the glass jar and out the open door. Saw a small sprinkling of sand on the floor. And he got it! He got it!
- Gaara!
He was shouting after him and running down the stairs and out among the people in the village.
- Gaara I got it! Gaara!
He saw Gaara standing together with his elder sister Temari and a few of the ninjas from the Fire Country. Gaara and Temari leaving as Shikamaru came closer.
- Gaara I got it! When the kids are not playing anymore! Then, then I will come for you!!! Gaara!
Gaara looked back. And smiled.
