Summary: Neji approaches Tenten for help, but never told Tenten what he wanted her to do. When she finally knows what's happening, what happens? ( NejiTen )
A/N: Lol, I tried writing something else, but it turned out really bad so I guess I'm back to NejiTen! xD

Sis: She doesn't :D
Tenten was at home, staring out of the window. She took a deep breath, feeling refreshed. What can be seen is a beautiful, busy town. What can be heard is muffled laughter of the people. Tenten smiled. She've always enjoyed this peace. She kept observing until she heard a loud, impatient knock on her door.
"I'm coming!" Tenten hurried to the door.
When she saw the person in front of her, she gasped.
"Help… me…" it was a dull, emotionless voice. It was Neji.
"H-huh?!" Even as Neji's team mate, Tenten has never heard Neji asking for help before.
And there he was, asking for help. He looked worn out, and was panting heavily. Tenten was beyond surprised.
Tenten looked at Neji. No blood. No bruises. Just panting. Probably exhaustion from running… But, why would he run?
"O-O-Okaaaaaay… What do you want me to do?"
"Come."
Neji grabbed Tenten's wrist and started running, pulling Tenten on the way.
"Neji! I can't keep up!"
Neji stopped. "No need to. We're already here."
Tenten stopped, too, and looked up. She mentally read the signboard of the shop: Kimono.
Strange, why would Neji would me into a Kimono shop?
Neji pulled Tenten into the shop and pushed her to the shop owner. "Here, give her the best Kimono you have. Hurry."
Without knowing why, Tenten was pushed into the changing room with a set of Kimono on her hands.
"Hurry up, Tenten." Neji said from the outside.
Upon hearing that, Tenten put the Kimono on as quick as she could. When she was done, she looked into the mirror.
She looked great. Not because she let her hair down, and not because she had curves, but because the Kimono was gorgeous. It had flower designs threaded onto it with beautiful silver thread, and it fitted her perfectly.
She opened the door to the changing room and saw Neji staring at her.
After a few seconds, Neji handed the shop owner some money. "Keep the change," he said.
As Neji pulled Tenten out of the shop Tenten saw the really-happy face on the shop owner.
Outside of the shop, the two were walking quickly(not running, 'cos in a kimono it's not easy to). Tenten wanted to ask Neji what he was trying to do, but before she could open her mouth to ask, Neji spoke up,
"Tenten. Sit down."
It was then Tenten realized that she was in a salon.
Obediently, she went to sit on the chair in front of a middle-aged lady.
Through the reflection on the mirror, Tenten saw the lady turning around to Neji and heard her asking, "What hairstyle would you like for her, sir?"
"Something formal." was the reply.
Okay, at least I know we are going somewhere formal because im wearing a kimono and I'm going to have a formal hairstyle. Tenten thought.
"We're going somewhere formal..?" Tenten asked, just to confirm.
"Hn."
Tenten wanted to ask why they would need to go, but instead, she looked at Neji.
From head to toe, and from toe back to head.
"Neji."
"Hn?"
"I don't see the reason why you don't need to have formal clothings."
"Hn."
"Don't 'Hn' me! Ah, Obaa-chan, make it quick. We're going somewhere."
"Ok!" replied the hairdresser.
Before Neji knew about it, he was pulled around by Tenten.
Tenten's hair was done -- it was in a bun. A bun. See the difference? Now, on with the story.
They were now in another Kimono shop, but this time, for for men. (A/N: yes, the traditional robe for men are also called Kimonos. I checked wiki!)
Neji was wearing a grey Kimono. It goes with the Kimono she was wearing now, and it suits him well, so Tenten just ordered the Hyuuga to buy it orelse she won't help him. (Oh and did I mention that Tenten's Kimono was pale yellow?) And at the same shop they also bought wooden scandals for both of them.
"Erm, Neji?" Tenten was following behind Neji.
"Hn?" Neji was leading Tenten out of the shop and into the Hyuuga Compound.
"Where are we going?"
"Hyuuga Compound."
"WHAT?! I mean, WHY?!"
"Beacuse you are doing me a favor."
"WHAT FAVOR?!"
"Being my girlfriend for today."
