Gaara's POV

"Yes I do know a guy called Dylan." I replied and she widened her eyes.

Of course I know Dylan. That's me! That's what she use to call me... well... use to.

"Can you please tell me about him?"

"Sure. Dylan was also your best friend. Although you made a promise to him that..." I was cut off.

"That I'll never leave him alone." Jessie cutted me off.

Had she remembered?

"How did you know?"

"I mostly dream about him. Especially the time that I made a promise to him that I will never leave him alone. That I'll always be there for him." She replied and I sighed.

Yup, I still remember those words.

"Well, tell me more."

I want to take this to the next level.

"Well, you always tell me that you like Dylan more than friends." She blush and I half grin.

"D-did I?"

"That's what you told me before."

Jessica's POV

So that's why I always dream about him and everytime I think about him, I have this different feelings towards him. It's a feeling of love. I... I love Dylan even though I only dream of him.

I want to remember him. I want to meet him. Ask him how's he'd been. I had this feelings for a long time now but I didn't know if he's real and now... I know he's real!

"Where is he now?" I ask.

I just want to ask a lot of questions like where is he now? Is he still alive? What does he look like? Does he still live at the Sand Village? Will he forgive me for what I had done? Is he still finding me? Does he... like me too?

Gaara's POV

Darn it Gaara, why can't you just tell her you're Dylan?!

"He's... back at the Sand Village." I finally reply and she gave a half frustration and sad look.

I wonder what's she's thinking right now.

"Gaara." She mumbled but I understood it.

"Yes Jessie?"

"Do you think he'll ever forgive me because I left him when I had promise that I will never leave him?" She sighed and I half smile even though she didn't see it.

"Of course he will." I said and she was still sad.

"You know, before I left the Sand Village to travel here at Leaf Village, he told me that if I ever find you here, I'll tell you that he always miss you and he wants you back. He knows that he should be angry with you because you left him but he knows that there's a reason of why you left him. He forgives you no matter how much pain you cause him for that's what friends do, they forgive each other... right?" I explained encouraging her that she shoulder be sad of leaving Dylan... leaving me.

For I know there's a reason of why she left me right?

"Thanks Gaara." She said smiling which made me happy.

After we finish eating our ramen amd Naruto finally finish his fifth bowl of ramen, I stood up and went to Mr. Teuchi.

"So how much was all of the ramen that we ordered including Naruto's order?" I ask and he smiled at me.

"You don't have to worry about that son for it's already been paid." He replied and I look at Jessie.

"See you later big brother."

"By little sis. Thanks for the treat."

She smirk at me then she went outside. I followed her. She waited for me until I got out. She has her hand in her pocket.

"Why did you pay?" I ask in a monotone voice.

She shrugged. How did she pay that fast?

"Well I know that when I saw big brother inside, he'll be ordering more than one ramen so it will be embarrassing if you were the one who'll pay for all of his order." She replied.

"Well I told you it wi-"

"Gaara, I paid. That's done. End of story." She cuts me off and I left out a sigh.

Not much longer, she started walking so I followed her. She then realized that I was following her.

"Aren't you going home?" She ask and I flinch.

"I wanted to walk you home." I replied.

I always walk her home before especially when it's getting dark.

"You don't need to."

"But I want to."

"I told you, you don't need to."

"You can't stop me." I said and she raised her right eyebrow.

(Thanks to 10TailDemonFox_Wolfy for this idea.)

"Don't you understand pal? She doesn't want to walk you home." A familiar voice spoke... Sasuke.

We look over to his direction and he was leaning to a tree with his arm cross.

"Just shut up." I said with a normal voice.

"Hn. Why would I?" I glared at him.

"Ooh, someone's getting angry." He scoff and I clench my fist.

"That's enough." Jessie demanded and I tried to calm down.

"You got a stalker now Jessica eh?" Sasuke grinned.

I tried my best to calm down.

"Whatever Sasuke, you stalk me all the time." Jessie rolled her eyes.

Sasuke widened his eyes and it's obvious that he was ashamed of what Jessie just said. I didn't stop glaring at him. He started walking towards us.

"So, Gaara, let's have an honest talk here. Do you like Jessica?" He ask and I flinch.

Of course I like her. In fact, I love her. Even though I don't know the meaning of love I still know I love her.
