A.N. This is dedicated to my readers of Silent Watching. I also hope I did some sort of justice to the idea I had in my head. Please enjoy! I had fun writing.

He watched as she ate an entire small mango by herself. He didn't want to eat the mango because he felt the fruit was too sweet for his taste. It wasn't like he enjoyed sweets either. It was strange that he wouldn't considering the fact he was deprived of sweets for most of his childhood. But then again, he reflected, he made a point not to eat sweets. It didn't fit with his diet for his training regime. Plus, he never adapted to eating sweets.
Her slender figures that could heal and punch holes into the earth was carefully sliding a knife over the mango, effectively removing the skin. Juices ran down her fingers and she didn't seem to care.
He wondered if you were supposed to cut a mango that why. He knew most people cut the fruit off the seed and peeled or ate from the meat from the skin. It was rather odd how she cut the skin first and then sliced chunks of soft tender orange meat.
Her fingers grasped each slippery chunk and slipped it into her mouth with a soft slurp. The juices really coated her fingers and she licked each digit one by one.
He watched tranced by each lick and sigh at the taste of the mango.
Neji noted she still had the seed left to finish.
He watched as half the seed disappeared into her mouth and popped back out, revealing the missing meat and the white of the seed.
He wondered why the air seemed to get tighter as she sucked on the seed, carefully making sure she got all the flesh and her tongue gathered all the juice.
Her round full lips was licking the mango seed and frowned in realization that she finished it.
Neji was sure that sucking and licking could only apply to ice cream. But apparently that wasn't so.
Sakura wiped her hands neatly on a napkin.
"That was deli--."
Neji's lips cut her off from speaking.
