Chapter: Fear in the dark

She shrank back, the figure came closer and closer to her, Sora closed her eyes in fear / No, I don't want to die, please! /
A real Kunoichi would have faced the danger and not squinted, but the fear of edging was simply too great. When, after a minute, she felt no pain, she managed to summon up the courage and open her eyes. When she looked around, nothing was to be seen of the figure.

With an effort she pulled herself up and patted her clothes. She took a cautious step forward, little by little it puffed up, she just wanted to go home to her bed.

When she finally got home, she first went into the living room to close the window that she had left open.
It occurred to her that it was a star-clear night, It looked beautiful. All the stars should be together up there forever. Together, that reminded one of the loneliness, and Sora thought of Gaara. Sure he almost killed her, but had he ever learned otherwise? / Who do I imagine that I would have been alone all these years, and everyone would have been afraid of me, would I have become that too? / Of course not she might be angry as well as Gaara, but she would never be that strong. It sounds strange but for a brief moment she was jealous of Gaara, he was so strong and she was so weak.
/Oh man! I should be ashamed! I am jealous of Gaara! /

She drew the curtain and went to bed.
She wondered what Gaara's past had looked like, it wasn't clear to her why she was even worried about him.
Sora wasn't a bad person, no matter how often she said that she didn't like someone, at some point she would have forgiven everyone, no matter how often she tried to come across a little harder, it failed because of her sympathy.
She knew there had to be a reason for every behavior, and Gaara's reason must be terrible because his behavior is exactly the opposite of, beautiful, friendly, cheerful.He felt sorry for her, but if he never got love and that's how he is, you should just give him love.
Maybe the bet could also be useful for Gaara. A smile crept over her face, she has never been so determined to create something. She would teach Gaara to love herself, whom she was weak, she was good at that.
The next morning she would look for him, she was aware that it was not entirely safe.
But she couldn't just blunt at him that she would love him, but she already had an idea.

The next morning a doorbell woke Sora out of her sleep, it wasn't her alarm clock there was someone at the door.
She rubbed her eyes wearily as she strolled out of bed.
She opened the door still half asleep, but when she had realized that the person in front of her was Ino, she woke up immediately and a slight anger spread "What do you want !?" Sora asked her with a feeling of annoyance Voice. "Sora, please, I'm sorry about Gaara, I just wanted ... well you don't have to take part in the bet, that was a stupid idea anyway, but please forgive me, I mean we're friends" the blonde begged Sora just thought / Oh man, I won't be able to be angry with her for long anyway, so what the heck / "Well, it's okay, but please don't do that again" "No! No way" assured Ino.
"Hey Sora, would you like to go to the park with me?" "Hm ok but I have to take a shower and get ready"
"OK, then we meet today in the park at 1:30 pm ok?" "Ok, um Ino ...?" "Yes, what is it?" "Oh nothing, see you then" And so they said goodbye.

At 13 Sora was already waiting on the park bench. It was a beautiful sunny day, the birds were chirping, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky.
Sora looked around, then leaned back and imagined a perfect wave. It was so nice and warm when suddenly a storm came up in her mind, which Gaara was waiting far in front of her for Baki to bring him the documents so that he could get back to Suna as soon as possible on his trohn as Kazekage.Sora remembered what she had promised herself, she took all her courage and got up. She walked slowly towards him / Oh God! Do I really want this? or is that another one of my ideas that in the end just cause trouble again? /
Despite her tormenting thoughts, she went on until she stopped behind him, his back was closed to her, she raised a hand trembling and was about to grab his shoulder when Gaara had already thrown her hand away and turned to her. "Um, I just wanted to apologize for yesterday" she said in a scared voice. "You want to apologize? Even though I wanted or want to kill you?" Sora started, what did he mean by 'want'?
"Well, it was my fault, too, I-I h-should have been more careful" He passed her without even looking at her, he must have been in a better mood, otherwise he would have tried to kill her again. But Sora couldn't give up, in the end she wanted to help him, although she became unsure again because he was so dominant and so strong that he needed her help at all. But she followed him.

"What else do you want that !?" asked Gaara irritably. "Um i-I thought maybe you could visit me?" For that sentence she would have loved to kill herself. How stupid could you be to ask Gaara if he would visit him? She could have said that he would surely find the documents in the town hall, because Sensei-Baki was mostly there when he was in Konoha, or something like that, but whether he would visit her, that was clearly stupid.
Gaara turned around in amazement, never in his whole life had anyone asked him to come and visit.
“You want me to visit you?” He asked coldly but surprised / Oh no! What do I do now? If I say no now it sounds like I wanted to fool him and if I say yes he'll declare me crazy, well that's me anyway, if I voluntarily stay near him / "Um, yes" was her shy answer for them she wanted to slap herself.Gaara became suspicious / Why should she hang out with someone like me? What is who she's trying to fool me but even if I come, I'll kill her at her home / Gaara a cold laugh crept over her face that immediately disappeared "All right" Sora opened her eyes as if the sky had opened. Gaara wanted to come to her? Was that a dream? A gene jutsu? A Wartamogana? She looked at him as if time had stopped, but inside she was happy and at the same time terrified. "Um, well, you can come tomorrow at 8:00 pm ...... a ... um only whom you, of course, who you want," she said shyly. Gaara only nodded slightly, tomorrow evening he would destroy this chick stamp.

Sora then watched him walk away, what had she just done? Didn't she realize that she would be dead after dinner at the latest? Slowly she turned around when she suddenly looked into a battered face of a Blodine. it was Ino. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. "B-but ...." the blonde managed to say, "Yes, yes, I know"
"But Sora we had the bet ...", Sora tried to smile to calm Ino "Um, oh Ino, I can manage it, I'll just try to do everything well, everything will be fine" she said under a visibly forced smile.
Ino looked at her incredibly, shortly afterwards Sora's smile disappeared and she hugged Ino, and began to cry like a little girl "Wh-hhhw oh garnix will be fine, what was I thinking ?! Whhaaaaaaha, as if I was Gaara something could tell about love! "Ino didn't understand what Sora had said under the cry, she just held her in her arms and tried to calm her down," Hey Sora, come calm down again, I'll help you with your problem "It seemed Ino was even crazier than Sora.

When Sora had calmed down again, she told Ino everything "What? Oh man Sora! What were you thinking?" Ino sounded like a mother she was desperate about so much stupidity, but now she had to help her."Ok, first when is he coming?"
"Tomorrow evening" said Sora shyly, "Sora, did you ever think that he would only come to kill you? You dug your own grave so to speak,"
After a long discussion, Ino gave Sora a few tips, but Sora doubted that they would work.

The next evening, Sora had a really strange feeling in her stomach, was it nervousness or fear? Anyway, it was just awful. She had put on a tight black top that you could lace up on the side. In addition, a gray skirt that was open on the sides. She had parted her hair on the left side, whom she would die then at least noble. She had asked Sakura to give her mother one of the delicious recipes, which Sakura had done too, but Sora doubted that Gaara would even touch a bite of what she had made. It was 19:50, Gaara would soon come and with it her last hour. She went again briefly to her balcony to catch some fresh air before leaving, Is that a beautiful starry sky again. Oh man, I'll be up there soon too "Dan rang the doorbell
Sora was startled, but then ran to the door and opened it. A Gaara, dressed almost in all black, stood in front of her.

"Hello" came from Sora, Gaara just nodded. Sora asked him to the table, which Gaara did, surprisingly, did he want to have something to eat before he started a murder? Sora sat across from him at the table. "U-uh, can I ask you something?" Came the unsettled Sora. "Hn?" "Um well, w-why b-did you come, a-well I mean uh so why really?" Gaara gave her a cold look "Because I want to kill you," said Gaara, "but if you don't act stupid , you will perhaps only suffer pain "With the sentence he tried something of what Sora had served him, while we are with her, she was now petrified with fear.

Gaara continued to eat as if she weren't there at all, Sora came to her senses / Well, great, it would be bad, but I knew that ... / She didn't feel like being scared anymore, she was scared all day now don't be a nerve for fear anymore.She just tried to loosen up. She grabbed her glass and drank from it "So, Gaara or Kazekage-sama, what brings you here to Konoha?" She asked him with a smile, Gaara looked at her for a while "That's none of your business"
Sora looked at him, "Well, how are Temari?" Gaara thought briefly, "If she doesn't stop bothering me all the time, it will soon be very bad for her." Then Sora had to laugh, she hadn't laughed for a long time, and now she laughed at Gaara's murder
