This is the first story in a collection I am going to be making with many, many, MANY different couples. Each one will be based off a different quote, none of which I know who said (thanks to my brother, who wrote down the quotes but not the authors.) So just (unless you know who it is who said it) consider them all anon. If you DO happen to know who said it, please, PM me, tell me which chapter, and let me know who said it. I'd love you all forever and ever and ever.

Disclaimer: I thought this was a fanfiction.

Detication: To Ino-Gaara, who loves this couple so much she hurts. And for helping me match couple to quote. You kick ass, girl!! (P.S. This was a request, so... yeah...)

Gaara X Ino Story One: Distance Doesn't Matter

Where there is love, distance doesn't matter.

Ino sat up from her bed with a sigh. After three hours, she still hadn't been able to fall asleep. Her eyes wandered around the moonlight-filled room. It was empty. Sure, there was her bed, her desk, her TV, her closet, and other things like that, but there was no one there but her.

He didn't come… she thought sadly. I should have known that he wouldn't. Why would he?

As Ino stared out into the night, she saw a flicker or red dash before her window. She hurried to the window to open it and let the redhead into her room with a smile. The redhead turned to her with a grin plastered onto his face before stooping down and kissing her neck. "Gaara…" she whispered softly.

Gaara wound his arms around her waist, lifting his head to look into Ino's blue oceans with his sea foam green eyes before planting a kiss on her awaiting lips. "Why do you have to go back to Suna?" she said with a quiet tone of dread in her voice.

"I cannot stay for much longer, you know that. I'm not supposed to be here right now, I'm supposed to be on my way already. I'm expected to arrive in Suna tomorrow morning."

Ino's bottom lip stuck out in a pout. "But Gaara…"

The redhead put a finger to Ino's rosy lips. "Enough, Ino. It's my job as kazekage."

The blonde sighed, resting her head on her lover's shoulder and wrapping her arms around his neck.

Holding her head, Gaara turned the blonde to look at him. "I'll be back, you know that." He noticed that her blue oceans were becoming glossy wither the water that was now coating them. With a sigh, he pulled her face up into a passionate kiss.

"I'll miss you, Gaara-kun." She says sadly.

"Ino, where there is love, distance doesn't matter." And with a quick kiss to her forehead, the red head of hair disappeared into the night, leaving with his angel his unspoken vow to return.
