    Summary

    “We are shinobi,” Lee said again, sighing. “I cannot promise we will grow old together. Most shinobi die before retirement. And has any Kazekage ever died of old age? All I know is that for as long as I am alive, I want to be with you.”
    “Lee,” Gaara whispered.
    “And who knows,” Lee continued. “Maybe there is an afterlife where we would be reunited, where there would be no one left to fight and nothing to do but enjoy each other’s company. I cannot count on that, so I will just need to make the most of the time we have.”

    Things are supposed to be peaceful again after the conclusion of the trial. It doesn't quite work out that way.

    “If there’s an afterlife, I’m not going to the same place you are,” Gaara said bitterly. “I would never see you again.”

    “Where would you go then?” Lee asked, startled.

    “Hell,” Gaara said simply.

    “Would I not go to hell?”

    “No, never,” Gaara insisted. “Someone like you would surely go to Heaven, if such a place existed.”

    Lee snorted. “I cannot imagine there could be a Heaven for me without you in it.”

    Summary

    Sai’s bird swooped at an impossible angle, wings beating furiously as it tried to catch them. Lee pushed himself away from the wall, flinging them both into empty air and stretched out his free hand. Inky feathers brushed his fingertips and slipped away.
    They were falling, plummeting down towards the dark, churning surface of the torrent. Gaara squeezed his eyes shut and used the last of his chakra and the sand that had formed the gourd to create a protective shell around himself and Lee. It was a small, fragile thing, but it held together as they crashed down into the swollen river, supporting their weight and bobbing on the surface as the great wave caused by the falling wall swept them downriver at a sickening speed. Tangled with Lee inside the shell, Gaara felt the last reserves of his energy draining away, there was nothing more he could do.

    With the threat of conflict with another shinobi village looming on the horizon, and the pain of their past still casting a shadow over them, Lee and Gaara have only each other to rely on when everything falls apart.

    “Am I awake?” he mumbled.

    “Yes, finally.”

    “But, you are here,” Lee protested.

    “Am I usually here when you dream?” Gaara wondered.

    “Always,” Lee told him, still looking confused.

     

    “I’m the Kazekage,” Gaara reminded him, pouting just a tiny bit.

    Lee grabbed his wrist and kissed his fingers as he pulled them away from his mouth. “You know, technically I am a Leaf ninja, so I do not actually have to do what the Kazekage says.”

    “You will if you know what’s good for you,” Gaara threatened, pout becoming slightly more pronounced.

     

    “I do not think I have ever felt that I belong anywhere in particular.”

    “I would like you to belong somewhere,” Gaara said softly, as he sealed the sand shut against the rays of the rising sun.

    “What do you mean?” Lee asked.

    “I’d like you to belong with me,” Gaara confessed, moving closer to him in the darkness.

     

    “I saw what you did,” Temari was saying. “I saw you standing by him as the rest of us flew away, I saw you catch him when he fell. Pakkun told us that you carried him for nearly seventy kilometres when he was too chakra depleted to walk.”

     

    “He said there was only one set of tracks from the first campsite to the second,” Temari explained. “Yours. Thank you, Lee.”

    Summary

    "Here you are, walking around a foreign ninja village with just that tiny gourd and no armour, and you think I could doubt that you are in love with me?
    Gaara smiled up at him, that rare, true, unguarded smile, and Lee found himself starting to lean in towards him, drawn towards that smile like a moth to a candle flame.
    "I am," Gaara whispered, tilting his face up towards Lee’s.

    A high-level shinobi must be a master of many skills. . . Romance is not one of them.

    “Neji, how are you getting along?”

    Neji stuck his head out of the closet, despair etched across his face.

    “Hopeless, absolutely hopeless,” he informed them.

    Summary

    “I didn’t know dancing was fun at all,” Gaara replied. “I didn’t want to come, but I’m glad I did. I liked it.”
    Lee tilted his head and frowned at Gaara. “Why did you come if you did not want to?”
    Gaara looked away. “Kankuro said you would have been disappointed if I didn’t.”
    “Well, he was right!” Lee laughed. “I had much more fun because you were there, but I do not want you to feel like you should do things that make you uncomfortable on my account.”
    “It wasn’t that I was uncomfortable,” Gaara said quickly. “I just didn’t know how to dance and I know I won’t be sleeping tonight so I thought it better to save my strength.”
    “Why would you not be sleeping?” Lee asked, concern flitting across his face again.
    “It’s just not a sleeping night,” Gaara sighed. “It happens a lot.”
    “I will stay up with you!” Lee exclaimed, punching one fist into the air above his head.

    En route to an important meeting, our favourite group of ninja are treated to a night off in the city. Lee teaches Gaara to dance, Gaara asks Lee if he might like to take a walk.
    Update: Art link added to Chapter 4.

    “Lee,” Gaara said slowly. “I appreciate the offer; I know you’re just trying to help. But you must understand why I can’t allow that. What if another ninja asked you to let him hold your greatest weapon?”

    Lee beamed at him. “But Gaara! My greatest weapon is my own two hands. And you are always welcome to hold those.”

    well said kankuro. smooth

    “Wow,” Itadori says, “I had no idea you and Inumaki-senpai were so close!”
    Maki snorts. “Yuuta would do anything for him.”
    Yuuta flushes and opens his mouth to protest but, well— he really would.

    Or: The upheaval of Jujutsu society ruins Yuuta’s plans to secure a boyfriend.

    “Seriously,” Maki throws over her shoulder, just before she leaves, “what are you waiting for?”

     

    “Sensei, can you come back already? We need an adult.”

     

    “I don’t know,” Yuuta sighs again, staring up at the ceiling of his room. “What do you think, Rika?”

    Rika, as usual, just wants Yuuta to be happy.

     

    A break. Yuuta thinks the universe owes him one break.

     

    “You dumbass,” Toge signs, “I already liked you. I liked you when you were the shy new guy who was terrified of talking to me. I like you now. I’ll like whoever you become in the future.”

     

    sweet. they are just kids
