This is going to be the last chapter. I apologize to those who were fans to this story. I was going to make one more chapter, but I decided to end it here on a happy note. Some of you will probably be happy with this decision, since the I was planning on killing Gaara and Kairi in the next chapter, but I decided to end this on a happy note, even though I'm not in much of a good mood tonight. Anyway, thanks for being such loyal readers. I'm sorry about it being so short, but I hope that doesn't matter. Please review! Thanks all!

Gaara's POV

The big wedding day has finally come after almost over a year. We had both agreed that we wanted to wait until we got close to finishing school. We were graduating this year, so we figured that it was close enough. Of course, Kankurou was my best man, since he was my brother. Temari was Kairi's bridesmaid.

It was the big day and I honestly was nervous. This was the worst I have ever been. Standing at the front of the chapel, I swear I have never shaken so much in my entire life. I couldn't help it.

Kairi was so beautiful. She was wearing a white, flowing gown that had the sequins near the top and going down her side. Here hair was put up into a bun and there was a tiara on the top of her head.

My brother walked her down the isle, since her father was in prison and she didn't have any family members that could walk her down. Kankurou was more than happy to walk her down and she was more than happy to let him.

We stood before the priest as he talked on and on. I just wanted him to cut to the chase, and I could tell that Kairi did too. She kept caressing the back of my hand with her thumb which told me that she was nervous as well.

We eventually said our "I dos", which was a big relief. I slid the wedding band onto her ring finger and slid a gold band onto mine.

"By the power invested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." Kairi grinned as I pulled her close and cupped her cheek in my hand.

"This is the beginning," I whispered to her before leaning in and pressing my lips hard against her lips. We stayed that way for a few moments before I slowly pulled away. She looked up at me, a bright smile plastered on her face. I couldn't help but smile back. We were officially married and I just couldn't be any happier.

Kairi's POV

Gaara carried me into the apartment that we shared and dropped me down on the bed. I yelped as I hit the bed and bounced up. Gaara sat down beside me as I sat up. He looked at me questioningly as I stood up. I smirked at him and pointed to the zipper in the back of my dress.

"A little help would be much appreciated," I told him playfully. He nodded and unzipped the dress for me. I held the dress to myself and thanked him before heading over to the closet and grabbing a hanger out of it.

"I'll be right back," I told him as I went into the bathroom. I took off my gown and carefully hung it up on the back of the bathroom door. I then quickly got dressed into a ruffled black satin slip. I stood in front of the mirror and began to take my hair down. I then quickly ran a brush through my hair. After I had finished, I turned the light out and went back into the bedroom.

The lights were out and Gaara was already under the covers. His back was turned towards me and he didn't move when I entered the room. I quietly approached the bed and slipped under the covers beside him. He still didn't move, which kind of made me annoyed. He was undressed, except that he still had his boxers on.

"Are you awake?" I asked sweetly. I still got no response from him. I smirked evilly to myself and scooted in close to him. I propped myself up and leaned in close to him, nipping playfully at his neck. He finally reacted with a short gasp and he turned to face me. Through the dark, I could see a bit of an amused look on his face.

"Why did you do that?" he asked, trying to contain a smirk that was threatening to show through his mask.

"You were trying to ignore me," I told him innocently, running my index finger up and down his chest. He blinked at me and smirked.

"I think you're just trying to cause trouble." I squeaked as he brought a strong arm around me and pulled me down on top of him. He looked up at me with his haunting sea-green eyes, making me lose sense of reality. It wasn't until he stroked my cheek with the back of his hand that I came back from my short daze.

"Are you okay?" he asked, a slight hint of concern evident in his voice. I smiled slightly and nodded. I grabbed a hold of his wrist and pinned it down beside his head. I leaned in again, crushing my lips against his. Gaara kissed me back with the same deep kiss that I had given him. We separated after about a minute for a quick breath of air before our lips connected again. His free hand was now on the small of my back and was slowly inching its way towards my hip. I slowly loosened the grip I had on his other hand and he slipped it away.

The next time we separated, Gaara quickly flipped me over onto my back and was on top of me. He crushed his lips against mine, causing my body to stiffen. Seconds later, his tongue entered my mouth, causing my body to go through a wonderful sensation. He pulled away when our lungs were screaming for air. I was breathing heavily and looking up into his lustful eyes. He leaned in once more and massaged my neck with his lips. I closed my eyes as Gaara worked his way up to my lips and licked them. I opened my mouth and Gaara's tongue slipped in.

Everything else that happened that night is between me and Gaara. I woke up the next morning wrapped up in his arms. Pleasant warmth surrounded me, making me feel comfortable and safe. Gaara's warm breath tickled the back of my neck, making me smile. I peered over my shoulder and saw that Gaara was still sleeping. I carefully rolled over so that I could look at him. He looked absolutely precious, the way his features were all relaxed and peaceful. I could lay there forever and be fine, just as long as I would be able to watch Gaara sleep. I was looking forward to being able to wake up every morning and having Gaara be the first thing I see. This is the start of a wonderful life. As long as Gaara is in the picture, I'll be happy.
