Summary: Sakura disappointed the Kazekage so now she has to go work for him. But Sakura would not easily give the fight up.

"Sakura-chaaan!" Naruto called out to her

"Hey, where is Sir Kakashi?"

"I don't know, maybe somewhere perverted" as soon as he said this Kakashi came.

"What's that Naruto?" Kakashi said in a very low, threatening voice. "Sakura, have a nice trip. Don't hesitate to ask for help. We'll go to Suna sometimes okay?"

"Sakura-chan hehehehe good luck! Ne, Kakashi-sensei why can't I go with Sakura-chan?" Naruto was pouting. One thing she will miss when she goes to Suna. She won't be able to see her former sensei blush whenever he reads 'Come, Come Paradise'. Tsunade-sama said she wouldn't be able to see her off because the Mizukage was going to be discussing matters with her. Her parents, well, bid her good bye before she left home thinking it was only a mission.

"Sakura, Tsunade-sama wanted to say take care of yourself and if ever he hurts you don't hesitate to threaten him. The Godaime said he already knows about this threat so don't worry."

"Okay…then I think I should go now." She said then hugged them both. There were five nins sent to escort her to Suna. 'I think the Kazekage doesn't trust me much' she thought before finally leaving Konoha.

Flashback:

Being called everyday to the Godaime's office was a usual routine for her. She always bring her sake and remind her about the papers piling up in her table. She wouldn't even bother to knock.

"Tsunade-sama!"

"Sakura, have a seat." Tsunade was trying to be calm about this then started to speak again when her apprentice has taken her seat. "Sakura, you're going to quit being a kunoichi."

"What did you say Tsunade-sama? I didn't quite catch that."

"Sakura, you're going to quit being a kunoichi."

"I'm sure I always clean my ears, what's that again?" then she put a finger into her ears

"Sakura, you're going to quit being a kunoichi."

"Tsunade-sama louder please"

"Sakura, you're going to quit being a kunoichi!"

"What! But… Why?..." her face started to pale. That means she has to say goodbye to her life.

"The Kazekage demands it. She didn't appreciate the behavior you have shown towards him during the last year's chuunin exam."

"But I was only defending the children, what if something happen to them? And besides he called my skills mediocre!" That arrogant, jerk!

"You know, he actually gave you two options, one was to quit being a ninja, two… if you are willing to serve him for three months. In other words, it's like you're going to be his personal maid. But I guess you really have no choice. So, what do you think?.."

End of flashback

'Gaara wait till I get my hands on your neck'

One of the five sand nins knocked at the door. "Kazekage-sama your guest has already arrived"

'Good, at least he didn't state to them what we're here for.' Her inner-self started to talk again, it was blabbing and blabbing until the door was opened for her and one of them gestured for her to come in. Her escorts left them alone. He doesn't seem to want to look at her so she approached his table and slam her hands on the table to get his attention.

"Gaara what the heck do you want!" she kept her glare on him but she didn't get a reply.

After one minute he finally spoke up.

"Do you want to stay here for another month? Remember I hold your future as a medic-nin." He replied not even looking away from the scroll he was reading

"Okay… Gaara…-sama… could you kindly tell me…what is wrong in protecting children? If I haven't interfered they might have died there."

"Stop gritting your teeth. You'll only look uglier" he told her still not looking away from the scroll

"Why you—"

"Get out now so you could go to your room, someone is waiting outside" he cut her off, which made her so angry. She wanted to strangle him but she was too tired already to pick up a fight. Her dress was dusty and her face looks horrible. Before stepping out of the room she gave him a glare and stuck out her tongue though she knew he was not looking.

So this is her room then. It has a small bed in the side, a cabinet on the other side, a lamp, a small table in the center and underneath the table was a carpet. She set out her things on the side. 'I'll arrange my things later, I need a shower. Now.' So she took her towel and some things she needed for her bath and went out of her room.

She looked around 'so this is Gaara's house, it's very simple, maybe he'll ask me to clean it' her inner mind told her.

'I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I use his bathroom for a while.' She opened the shower and started to clean herself. She then heard someone opened the front door, maybe it was Gaara, it was seven in the evening already anyway. Reaching for the towel she dried herself and peeked outside the door.

"AAAHHHHH! What are you doing there! You scared the hell out of me." she asked the woman who was standing in front of the door. She clutched onto her falling towel and pulled it up.

"I was wondering who was taking a shower since Gaara does not come home till eight."

"You live together?"

"No, I prefer to have my own house. I'm only here because I bring my dear brother food every night. Because I know he always skips lunch time"

Temari stepped out of Sakura's way and went straight to the kitchen. Sakura went to get dress. She decided to wear her usual red dress, only she didn't wear cycling shorts now. It was kind of hot in Suna so she left the shorts and besides she wasn't going outside for now.

He almost forgot about her. He would have a personal maid for three months. He prefers the word slave over maid though. Temari brought him his dinner and Sakura was the only one left here in his house.

"Oh your home…" she said in a very boring voice her hand on her hip. No reply came from him.

"Hey slave, go get me a drink."

"What! Hey listen here, I may be serving you for three months but that doesn't mean you could call me slave"

"Do you want your master to end your career?" he knew that she would be very afraid to lose her job. Seven years was a very long time. She would not want to waste those years she has trained. 'Sakura you do not have pride. Our career is at stake' inner her talking.

"So…what …do…you…want to…drink…Mas-ter?" a fake smile came from her lips.

"Sake"

"Okay then…Master" then she glared at him when he wasn't looking. Luckily for her Gaara stocks sake in his house so she doesn't have to go out and buy them.

"Here." She said then notice he didn't made any move to get the sake. He was expecting her to pour sake for him.

"Here.. .you…go… master…" she sat beside him then poured some sake into his cup. Gaara emptied the cup in one gulp. Sakura angrily pour sake into his cup again. No matter how angry she was, she was going to swallow her pride. 'Gaara just you wait, after three months'

Gaara offered her his cup "Drink"

"I don't drink, and I think you should eat first before drinking sake"

"Good, I hate women who drink"
