Mebuki walked into the kitchen "hello sweetheart".

Sakura face split into a huge smile before running to embrace her mother in a tight hug. "I missed you mum".

Mebuki just smiled "i missed you too" she hugged the pink haired girl tighter.

The green eyed girl pulled away after a while "where's dad?" she asked looking around for her father.

"He's with Gaara right now" she answered.

Sakura nodded her head then looked back at her cooking "care to help me mum?".

The older women made her way to the food smiling "of course dear".

(Back in the living room)

Gaara and Kakashi were just talking when Gaara bought up Sasuke coming here. "So he came here just to what? to get back at her or to win her over?" the silver haired male asked as his eyes narrowed.

Gaara leaned back on the couch running his hand through his hair and let out a sigh "I don't know and don't care" he then looked to the kitchen "but I'll never let him hurt Sakura".

Kakashi looked to the fuming red head then gave him a closed eyed smile. He clapped the boy on the shoulder "I am happy Sakura has found a good guy like you Gaara" Gaara just blushed out of embarrassment and coughed into his hand to cover it up, Kakashi just chuckled.

Just then Sakura and Mebuki walked in with the food. Sakura ran into her father's arms as soon as the food was placed on the table"dad!" she yelled in joy. Kakashi just laughed and spun her around before putting her down and ruffling her hair.

Sakura pouted and swiped playfully at her dad "hey!" everyone just chuckled at the pink haired girl's face.

Kakashi placed his hands on her shoulders "I happy to see you again Sakura" he then looked at Gaara "also that you chose someone good like Gaara to be with you".

"I know, he's amazing isn't he" Sakura grinned at the now blushing red head.

"Sakura" he groaned out. Gaara can never take a compliment without blushing, Sakura knew this and enjoyed using it against him. Gaara just sighed and gestured to the table "can we just eat". Everybody sat down ate and talked amongst themselves.

AFTER DINNER

Everyone retired to their room soon after dinner. Sakura not able to sleep gently got up. She looked over to Gaara who was surprisingly still asleep. Usually the smallest things wake him up. She walked to the kitchen and decided to make some tea. During the process some gentle hands slithered across her waist.

"Gaara-kun," she said looking up. He buried his face in her hair.

"Couldn't sleep," he asked.

"Hmm," she answered leaning back. She poured them tea as they both sat down. Silence filled them as they drank quietly.

"Sakura you do know that I will protect you no matter what, right," he gently asked.

"She put her head on his shoulder. " I know my prince will save me," she whispered.

Gaara smiled they walked to the kitchen cleaning up. Gaara smirked picking her up bridal style gently walking to their room. Sakura giggled gently. When they reached their door they heard a cough. Gaara turned around to see Kakashi. Sakura blushed tomato red. She quickly hopped down.

"Hi daddy what are you doing awake so late," she asked.

"I could ask you the same thing," he said.

"I couldn't sleep," she answered, "So we got tea, I'm going to bed now," she said marching in.

"Gaara we need to talk," Kakashi said. Gaara nodded walking to him. "You'll want this," he said passing him a box. He winked walking back to his room. Gaara gently opened the box to find a collection of the Iccha Iccha paradise book's. (Sorry if I spelled that wrong) and some sexual tool's. He blushed red like his hair. Opened Kakashi's door slipped it into the side and closed the door. Laying down next to Sakura and letting sleep come over him.

A little weird sorry. REVIEW! Sorry I was late.
