Start:
A Few Days Before The Ball...
"Grrr... Why does she have to come..." You asked Temari.
"Because she is making your dress."
"But she's a dumb, old, stupid, baka-heifer!" You said emphasizing every word.
"Wow, never heard that combination of words before..." Termari said.
"Grrr! I'm serious!" You told Temari as both of you, Kankuro and Gaara headed for the small Ice Village.
When you got there the sun was just setting...
"Ok, me and Kankuro are going to look for Ryo and Goro you two stay here." Termari said.
You closed one eye and looked at Gaara.
"How do I always get stuck with you?" You asked.
"Hn. How do I always get stuck with you?" Gaara asked looking away.
You were about to say something but something cold hit your nose...
"Ahhh, get it off!" You yelled.
"It's just snow baka..." Gaara said looking at the sky.
"Right, I knew that I was just testing you." You said as you rubbed the back of your head.
"Sure..." Gaara said sarcastically.
You watched as the snow came down harder.
Ten minutes passed.
"Gosh, when are Temari and Kankuro coming back I,m freezing my ass off..." You said hugging yourself.
"Quit whining, good shinobi's aren't supposed to whine..." Gaara said in a matter-of-fact tone.
You mumbled something as you looked at the ground where there was a good layer of snow.
'Hmmm...' You thought mischievously.
Gaara turned around quick when he felt a burst of cold on the side of his head.
"What the..." Gaara said as he wiped the snow off his head.
You laughed and he looked at you.
"A good shinobi is supposed to be alert at all times..." You mocked closing your eyes in victory and giving him a salute.
Before you knew it a large burst of cold hit you right in the nose.
"Speak for yourself..." Gaara said smirking.
"Grr...cheap shot!" You said as you wiped the snow off your face.
"Hn. I don't have time for these childish games..." He said as he turned around.
'Grr...Thinks he's too good...I'll show him...'
Using your Taijutsu skills, you appeared behind him and did a sweeping kick making him fall face first into the snow. His eyes widened as his face met the ground. You appeared in front of him and smirked with your hands on your hips. He looked up at you wiping the snow off his face with a death glare.
"You!" He said getting up.
"Crap!" You said running away as he chased you, of course you were faster.
All of a sudden you lost you balance not because you were...well you, because that particular spot was covered in ice. You fumbled and fell on your butt.
BAM!
"Heh, got you now!" Gaara said as he sprinted over to you.
"No don't there's...!" But it was to late, you watched as he wobbled on falling backward.
"Ice..." You said with a smirk as you watched him fall.
BOOM!
"Grrr! What are you smirking at baka!?" He said.
"Ha! Seeing you fall on your ass like that was the highlight of my day!" You said with a huge smile.
"Grrr!" He said as he reached for you.
You tried to get up to get away but fell right back down.
"Ahh!" You screamed as you collided with the ground.
"Oww..."
You thought about it for a while.
"Hmmm...I have to get off this ice." You said trying to stand up again, but failed.
KA-BONG!
"Owww..." You said rubbing your butt.
"Hn. Let me show you how to get up without falling." Gaara said as stood up, but fell on his ass...
BAM!
"You were saying..." You said as you smirked and crossed your arms.
"Shut up." He said dully glaring at you.
"Hmmm, maybe if we help each other up at the same time." You suggested.
"I'm willing to try anything..." Gaara said desperately.
He turned pink as you grabbed his hands.
"Ok...1...2...3!"
You both stood up and wobbled a few seconds and then fell...
BAM! BOOM!
"Oww..."
"Ugh..."
"Well at least that time we stayed up for five seconds..." You pointed out.
"I wish I could be over on that bench instead of freezing my ass off with YOU!" Gaara said hugging himself.
"The feeling's mutual..." You replied flatly.
Gaara sighed. And a few moments passed.
"Let's try again..." He said in a low tone.
"Ok.."
He still looked a little pink when you grabbed his hands the second time...
"Ok...1...2...3!"
"Ha!" You said as you caught your balance, but it didn't last for long...
"Ahh!" You said as you hugged Gaara's arm making him lose his balance and turn twenty shades of red...
"Baka-samaaa!" Gaara yelled as he fell on top of you.
The world seemed to pause as he looked at you wide eyed with his heart racing, you looked deep in his eyes for a while, he swallowed hard and started getting closer to your face, you got nervous and didn't know what he was doing so you yelled...
"Get off me, your heavy!" You said as reality came back.
"Uh..." He said as he quickly got off.
You looked away, face red as Gaara's hair. (Wow that's red...) You then looked at your goal which was the spot with no ice.
Gaara placed his hand on his heart deep in thought...
'What is this fe-...'
"Raccoon Boy!" You said breaking him from his thoughts.
"What...?"
"I think were going to have to crawl there..." you said with a sweat drop.
"Fine..." He said as frowned and he followed you.
After a second he realized what you called him.
"Hey! I told you to stop calling me that!" He yelled.
"Gee, took you long enough to catch on..." You said reaching a spot where there's no ice.
"Akane, Gaara!" Called someone as you both looked up.
Heh, Mr. Sandman fell Please reveiw.
