Touch my Heart (Gaara x Reader)

Confusion

Gaara laid down on the bed clenching the sheets between his fingers. He didn't want to feel this.

But part of him really did.

He loved his sister, his brother, his friends and his village.

But this? What was this?

"She touched me."

This love was of a different kind. A love that he had never felt before.

All he could think about was y/n. It consumed him. This feeling, this feeling was so different for Gaara.

"How could anyone feel this.. This is.. how could she feel this kind of thing for me."

He clenched his fingers over his heart.

"No, she never would."

He didn't want to let y/n inside his heart. He was afraid.

Afraid that he could somehow lose her if he did.

But then there was a part of him that didn't want to stay away.

No, a part couldn't stay away.

He wanted to tell her. To hold her close to him and never let go.
