Gaara calmly surveyed Naruto's apartment. He wasn't sure if he should be surprised at how clean it was or not. The apartment itself was small, but it was homey and Gaara felt warm and welcomed. There was a large living room/kitchen area, and then there was a door presumably leading to the bedroom. Gaara had the sudden urge to go in there, pulling Naruto behind him. There were a few windows in the room and Gaara could swear he saw someone sitting in there. Gaara narrowed his eyes; it was prolly that annoying Uchiha… Damn Uchiha.

"Uh… Gaara?" Naruto asked nervously. He couldn't help but notice that Gaara kept zoning off, and this time he had a malicious look. Naruto was a little worried about the red haired boy.

Gaara snapped out of his thoughts and mentally cursed for zoning out again. "Yeah?"

Naruto smiled; glad his friend was back to his normal self… sort of. Naruto wasn't sure if he liked the look Gaara was giving him. It looked as if Gaara were staring at a piping hot bowl of ramen… Ramen…

Gaara frowned. Naruto was off in his own little world and drooling. Gaara smirked and decided to snap Naruto out of it in a way that most certainly appeal to himself. Striding over to the out of it blonde, Gaara stepped up behind him and wrapped his arms around him. Naruto snapped out of it immediately. Gaara nibbled on Naruto's ear, causing the blonde to blush bright red and squirm in the red head's grip.

"Gaara?" Naruto asked hesitantly. Gaara let go of Naruto's ear.

"You were muttering something about 'eat me,'" Gaara replied smirking. Indeed Naruto had said something along those lines… but Gaara had edited the sentence. Naruto had actually said something more like "You look so good… practically calling out eat me…" Ironically enough, Gaara had edited it for the blonde's own sake, since Gaara was practically off in "Happy Gaara land" thanks to that murmur.

Naruto sputtered something about ramen and Gaara chuckled, letting the blonde go. Naruto scrambled away from the red head. Naruto looked around the room uncomfortably for a moment before looking back at Gaara.

"Umm…" was all the blonde could manage. Gaara just rolled his eyes, stepping forward towards Naruto, who backed up slightly.

"You know Naruto… we have an audience," the Kazekage said indicating the window with his head. Naruto's eyebrows furrowed.

"Eh?" was his intelligent question. Gaara chuckled and wrapped his arms around the blonde again, who didn't try to push him away. Gaara smirked in victory.

"Yeah… and he seems to be quite the jealous one right now," Gaara whispered in Naruto's ear. Naruto shivered.

"Who?" Naruto asked, clearly not paying much attention to their conversation. Gaara smirked again.

"The Uchiha," Gaara replied, licking Naruto's cheek. Naruto stiffened.

"Sasuke!" Naruto managed to ask, his voice refusing to work well.

"Yes, the Uchiha. He doesn't like that I have you in my arms," Gaara replied. Naruto pulled back from Gaara a bit.

"…" Naruto couldn't think of anything to say. Gaara decided to use the silence to his advantage and closed the space between them, capturing the blonde's lips with his own.

A rock hit the window, breaking the two apart. Naruto was beet red, and Gaara was quite proud of himself. Another rock hit the window. Gaara glared at the now visible Uchiha. Naruto, totally oblivious to the world, grabbed the front of Gaara's shirt and tugged him forward. Gaara was taken by surprise, but gladly returned the kiss Naruto had pulled him into. Looking past Naruto's head to the livid Uchiha, Gaara wrapped an arm around Naruto and flipped Sasuke off with his other hand.

Naruto had never really stood a chance against Gaara with his mind set.

If: I hope that's not too much of a cop-out for an ending... I nearly forgot I was doing this story with all the commotion that's been going on lately... But yeah. That's about it.
