* I just found a random picture, but I thought it may suited this chapter (kind of). ^^ I don't own that fan art! *

*Tango's P.O.V* 

I woke up with a big yawn and noticed Naruto wasn't here. He's probably buying some breakfast, I thought as I didn't put more thought to it. I put on my clothes and noticed a piece of paper on his bed. I then remembered it was the Chunin Exam today! I grabbed the paper and started reading. 

'Ohayo (Good morning) Tango-chan! I left breakfast on the table. I would've woken you up so we could've eaten together, but you slept so peacefully I didn't have the heart to wake you up. We're off to the Chunin Exam and just come along whenever you want to. - Naruto'. 

That damn Naruto. Don't have a heart to wake me up? Pft, I smell bullshit. I quickly ate my breakfast and ran out towards the Chunin Exam. I heard some yelling along the way, and I definitely recognised the voice; Naruto. I started to run where I heard Naruto yelling when I suddenly bumped into something, or someone, and fell down on my butt. I muttered words in pain and stroke my butt whilst standing up. I looked up to see what, or who I bumped into and it was a guy I've never seen before. He looked at me with eyes that looked like he wanted to kill me. It didn't scare me though. He probably just wanted to toughen up and look cool, but I'm tired of those guys. 

"Jesus Christ, look where you're going. Now my butt hurts", I whined. He glared at me even more, which I only frowned to. "Look, it wasn't my fault that we crashed. I was in a hurry and I didn't see you until I fell down on my butt". Since he just continued glaring, I decided I would try my top sense of humour to crack a smile on his serious face. "But don't worry about it; I have a technique that would blow up my bum like a balloon and then I wouldn't feel a thing". I giggled at my own joke, but he just continued glaring. I then frowned once again. "What's your problem? I'm just trying to be funny". I couldn't help but blush and feel incredible dumb. He finally opened his mouth, but it was not the words I actually wanted to hear. 

"Don't ever touch me again". His voice was deep and it fitted his appearance. He had short red hair and bluish eyes. His eyes reminded me of a panda, since it was black around them and over his left eye he had a symbol; which said 'love'. He was kind of good-looking, but if you add his glare, he just looks like a jackass. He also had a big crib on his back. I wonder what's inside... 

"Or what?" I whispered and stepped closer seductively. "You'll push me so I'll fall on my butt again? Or do you just want to see my technique?" I smirked and walked even closer. I was just about to touch his shoulder, but he grabbed my right hand. Surprised, I looked at our hands. My hand was small and his was bigger and my hand fitted perfectly in his. I thought it would fit perfectly with a joke here, to break the silence: I fake gasped, which made him glance weirdly at me. "Oh my god, you touched me! Now I'll push you", I jokily said and was about to playfully push him, but he grabbed my other hand as well. I frowned at him. Did he think I'd actually push him for real? "Uhm, I was just kidding. I wouldn't do that. Don't you have a sense of humour?" I asked with a frown and I could tell he was thinking. Thinking hard. 

*Gaara's P.O.V* 

I walked where I heard someone yelling. I was looking for Temari and Kankuro, since we had to head for the Chunin Exam. I thought that they'd be some place causing troubles. On my way, I crashed into a girl and she fell down. She yelped in pain, but got quickly back up. I glared at her, giving her a warning yo not repeat touching me. She looked at me and I saw a hint of a smile on her face. Why was she smiling? 

"Jesus Christ, look where you're going. Now my butt hurts", she whined and I glared even harder, trying to make her apologise without me actually making it obvious. "Look, it wasn't my fault that we crashed. I was in a hurry and didn't see you until I fell down on my butt". Who does she think she is? Just apologise already! "But don't worry about it; I have a technique that would blow up my bum like a balloon and then I wouldn't feel a thing". Why is she joking at a time like this? Does she think this is a kind of game? And that kind of technique doesn't exist...I think. 

She was giggling, but she quickly caught on I wasn't changing my expression. "What's your problem? I'm just trying to be funny". Then you need to read a book of jokes. She got a mix colour of pink and red all over her face. What does that mean? I'm tired of waiting so I gave her my warning: 

"Don't ever touch me again". She frowned and then giggled. Why isn't she taking me seriously? Everyone else are scared of me. Why wasn't she?

"Or what? You'll push me so I'll fall on my butt again? Or do you just want to see my technique?" She came close and closer with a smirk on her face and I started to prepare for what she's trying to do. With just one technique she'll be dead. She was about to touch my left shoulder, but I stopped her by grabbing her hand. Our hands smoothly fitted each other and I couldn't help but to stare at them. She then gasped, which snapped me back in to reality again. "Oh my god, you touched me! Now I'll push you", she said with an unusual voice. It wasn't much of a warning in it. Was it some kind of a trick? I quickly grabbed her other hand and she looked surprised and frowned at me. Why was she surprised? Did she think I was that slow? "Uhm, I was just kidding. I wouldn't do that. Don't you have a sense of humour?" What does she mean she was kidding? Sense of humor? Isn't she afraid of me? Everyone I meet gets afraid of me, even if they don't know me. They could tell by my expression and look, but she hasn't shown any sign of fear. What's with this girl? 

*Flash-back* 

I was in a park watching the other kids playing football whilst I sat at my usual place. One kid kicked it too hard so it landed right in front of me. I picked it up and walked towards them, but then they all stepped back. 

"Please don't hurt us. I didn't mean to kick it right in front of you", the kid who kicked the ball said, fear written all over his face. I just continued walking towards them with their ball in my hands, trying to give it back to them. They all yelled and screamed in fear and then ran out of here, leaving me all alone again. 

*End of flash-back* 

I snapped back to reality when I heard her whisper something in my ear. 

"If you're trying to act tough, that won't work on me", she whispered and I then fell something soft on my cheek. What was she doing? Did she put something on my cheek? Wait, is she kissing my cheek?! My eyes widen as I let go of her hands and she took a step back with a big grin on her face. "Thanks for letting go of my hands. You were completely out in deep thoughts it was impossible to talk to you". What is this warm feeling on my face? I didn't feel quite normal as I usually do. Was there a trick to the kiss? I didn't know why that flashback came in a situation like this. "Care to share with me your name?" she asked and I just continued staring at her in shock. What is she trying to do? Why does she wants to know my name? 

"Gaara! There you are! You have to find Temari and Kankuro and head to the Chunin Exam!" I turned around and saw Baki-sensei running by. I nodded and looked at the girl again. 

"Hmm, Gaara? That's your name?" She's definitely going to do something now. She walked closer and I tried to watch her movemets, but I didn't see anything that could do harm. She just suddenly held out her hand. I continued staring at her and she frowned again. "Yeah, uhm, you're supposed to shake it?" After just staring at it, she hesitantly pulled it back. "Okaaay, that was a bit rude", she sighed, "anyways, I'm Tango". Tango? "Well, we both have places to be, so I guess we'll see each other again", she said and came closer to me again. "Don't worry, our secret is safe with me", she whispered in my ear and started running. I started to walk and then heard her call my name. "Oh, and by the way Gaara?" I turned around and she had stopped and was looking at me. "Good luck in the first exam". Why would she wish me luck? Besides, I don't need luck. She started to run again and then we went our separate ways. Tango... Just who was that girl? 

*Yeah, whatcha think about their first meeting?? Hahah, Gaara's like a confused cute little puppy XD Love him .xx *
