disclaimer: I do not own naruto, though i wish i did.
this is my first fanfic, so please don't be too brutal…
Gaara has no way to get out of his problems, and he meets Naruto…things can only get better
warning:narutoXgaara yaoi. if you no likey, do not read!
Lonely feelings paved his path. His path leaded to the depths…these shadowy places that filtered all happiness out of his life. Nothing can save him. That pain spread through his body like a disease, slowly infecting everything it could get to.
You'll never get away.
He spent his days in his room, his nights in the dark. His life was plain. The whole thing was set up just for him. Like a present, already opened and used. That didn't bother him, he was used to it.
Unexpected things were scarce for him. Surprises are out of the ordinary. One day changed it all. The day Gaara met Naruto changed his whole life.
Nothing can change you. Nothing can change me.
The blonde-haired boy striked an interest when Gaara first spotted him. The boy was moving into the apartment complex, and Gaara happened to be looking out his window.
"His hair is almost as amazing as his eyes." Gaara murmured to himself.
Following behind the strange boy was a young girl with pink hair carrying some suitcases. Gaara wondered who she was and what business she had with him. If the relationship was special, she must, and will, be eliminated ASAP.
He observed exactly which apartment the blondie was moving into, and wrote it down on a small piece of paper. That night, he sat there staring at the paper thinking about the boy.
Maybe I can change you. This blonde-haired boy might just be my passageway out. Just you watch me break free.
In the morning, he planned his approach. Walk up to the door, ask his name, begin a friendship…or whatever you call it.
Here I go.
He walked up to the door of the apartment and contemplated walking in or knocking. How was he supposed to know whether to do one or another? Its not like people are trained to do these things.
He politely knocked on the door and waited until Naruto opened up the door.
"Hello. Who are you?" Naruto said.
"I am Gaara of the Desert. What do you go by?" Gaara replied.
"I am Naruto. Do you live in the apartment complex?"
"Yes. I'm a few doors down. Maybe we could do something together sometime."
"That sounds cool. Do you want to come in?"
"Sure. Thanks for having me."
"Its my pleasure…really"
Naruto smiles and leads Gaara to his room.
This guy is really nice. I wonder if he will understand me.
"So this is your crib?" Gaara asked.
"Yep. Pretty crappy, eh?" Naruto said.
"No! I like it a lot." Gaara said sheepishly as he glanced at the group picture on Naruto's desk.
"Oh. You're probably wondering who she is."
Naruto points to the picture of the group (Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura, and himself), but specifically at Sakura.
"Yeah. I am"
"She's Sakura - one of the group. She's really helpful, but she's not my type."
"I see. I noticed her helping you with your stuff yesterday."
"You like her?"
"Naw, I'm not into girls."
"Me neither."
"That gives us something in common" Gaara said with a smile on his face.
"Yeah, that's good. What's the tattoo for?"
"Maybe I'll tell you some other time"
"I'm looking forward to it."
I'm still working on it...the rest might be out on the 26th because of my swim camp running from the 19th to the 25th. If it is out earlier, you're lucky!
