Lloyd in the World of Naruto

A Team

Lloyd's POV

When it was morning I started off in search of my team. I walked in the direction we had been heading when I stormed off. I found them getting ready to leave. "Hey," I said.

Y/n looked at me. "Are you in a better mood?"

I shook my head. "But I need to be with my team. It's best if you just don't talk to me."

"About Sasuke or the war?" Temari asked.

I gave her a dark look. "Both."

"Okay, then we won't talk about Sasuke but not talking about the war is going to be a little difficult, Lloyd," Y/n said. "Given the fact that we have to prepare for it."

I glared at the ground. "I am aware."

"But how are we supposed to talk about our plans and stuff if it pisses you off?"

I shook my head and didn't respond.

Y/n's POV

I watched Lloyd worriedly as we headed back to Suna. I caught up to Gaara. "Is it me or is Lloyd actually becoming an angry person because one of his friends betrayed their village?" I asked him.

"It's not just you," Gaara muttered. "He won't let anyone help him."

"I don't think anyone can."

"I meant that he's not talking about it so it's festering."

I nodded. "Should we try teasing him and making jokes?"

He blinked. "What?"

I rolled my eyes. "We're his friends. It's our job to make him happy."

Gaara nodded. "Okay." 

We both dropped back and walked beside Lloyd. "So when you went for a walk was it so you could think about a girl you like?" I asked playfully.

Lloyd raised an eyebrow. "The only girls I know are prickly."

"Hey!" I said. "Temari might be prickly but I'm not."

Gaara snorted. "You are too."

I scowled at him. "Well, you're friends with Temari and me so you do like prickly women," I pointed out.

Lloyd's mouth twitched. "I suppose that's true."

"Suppose?" Gaara said. "That's a lie."

Lloyd shook his head. "I know what you two are doing."

"Or yeah? What are we doing?" I challenged.

"You're trying to make me feel better."

I blinked. Wow, he got it right. "Is it working?"

He shrugged. "A little. I won't say that I'm in love with anyone and I know that's what you're hoping for."

I looked at him. "Do you love someone?"

He smirked. "I love my friends."

I scowled. "Really? That's not what I meant."

He raised an eyebrow. "You asked if I love someone, I said that I love my friends. I answered your question."

"Cheater," I growled.

He laughed which made Gaara and me smile at one another. "I answered your question truthfully," Lloyd told me. He saw us smile at each other and had ignored it.

"Okay, fine. Let me rephrase my question. Who are you in love with?" I said. Ha, I thought. Try to get out of that one.

Lloyd thought for a minute. "No one."
