"It has been some time since you were last in our village. I am glad to see you've been doing well!" Rock Lee chatted away to Gaara as he escorted him through the village, sightseeing, Kankuro in tow.

"It's just as lovely as I remember." Gaara murmured.

As they walked down a path Gaara's eyes suddenly noticed Guest helping some young ninja. It had been years since he had seen them, but they looked the same as ever. He paused in his stride though he couldn't hear what Guest were saying from this distance.

"Speaking of lovely..." Kankuro leaned in, grinning at Gaara. He knew his brother had always had a soft spot for Guest.

Lee turned to follow their gaze before grinning happily grabbing Gaaras shoulders.

“Oh! It's Guest! We should say hello!"

Gaara frowned visibly. Stopped walking as Rock Lee grabbed his shoulders. “No...that's not necessary..."

It fell on deaf ears as Rock Lee called out with a grin and waved towards Guest loudly.

“Guest!! Hi!!! Look who's visiting the village!"

He waved enthusiastically, easily drawing the attention of Guest, much to Gaara's dismay.
