Chapter 1 - High School
NEJI POV
Here I am.. going down the stairs of my house towards the dining table
Its breakfast. The meal of the day, right before work, before parties and before SCHOOL
I got a bottle of milk in the refrigerator and sipped it,
"Neji-Niisan?"
I looked to my left and saw my long black haired cousin, Hinata
"Good Morning Lady Hinata"
"M-Morning" she said with a blush
I noticed that Hinata has been acting weird ... she recently isnt talking about Naruto that much, which isnt really normal or Im somewhat relieved.. I hate it when she keeps talking about Naruto's absurd doings in class
I sighed, clossed the fridge , grabbed my school bag and opened the door
"Shall we go, Hinata?"
"U-Um Yes!" she yelped
She went out of the door and I followed
On our way to school we saw Kiba and he came this way to greet us
"Hey Neji! Hinata!"
"He-Hello Kiba-kun"
"Hn" I said
After Kiba, was Tenten heading over in this direction.. quickly holding Kiba's hand and reaching out to kiss him in the cheek.
Confused why she did that?
Let me explain...
Kiba and Tenten are now dating since last month and lets say things are going well with them.. At first everyone in Konoha 11 was laughing by the whole dating thing and thought that they were just joking around, but Tenten showed proof by kissing Kiba in the lips which eventually caused Hinata to faint, Naruto to blush terribly, Sakura to feel defeated for she has not kissed anyone yet, and the rest of us were shocked normally.. except for Shino.. he didnt react at all. After that Ino and Shikamaru kept asking me why are they together and that Im not together with Tenten. I didnt answer and just left the question hanging
Yes, I do have some feelings towards Tenten,
but after that kiss I felt torn.. even more painful than being wounded in the chest with a knife
I never felt that way before, but I have to accept reality
Accept the fact that...
TENTEN NEVER LOVED ME...
I sighed and just looked at Hinata, she was smiling plainly
"Neji!"
I looked at front
"Hn?"
"Wanna watch with me and Kiba?" Tenten asked
"..."
"You know, a movie? I have two extra tickets"
Tenten showed me four tickets
"Who else are you gonna invite other than me?" I asked, wondering who belongs to the fourth ticket
"Hmm? Oh! Im gonna ask Ino later if she wants to come" she smiled
"U-umm! Ten-chan!"
Hinata said
"Yeah?"
"I-If its alright... could.. could I have the last ticket?" she asked
Tenten looked at Kiba, and he just gave a sigh
"Fine.. Ino will understand" Kiba said
Hinata smiled and giggled for joy
"Thanks!" she said
"So.. when's the movie?" I asked
"Oh Tomorrow at 6pm" Tenten explained
"I see.. wait, what will we watch?" I asked
"Karate Kid" she smiled
I felt like I wanted to smile when she smiles
I shook my head, without anyone noticing the smile
'No Neji... she likes Kiba not you' I thought to myself
"Neji-niisan, are you ok?"
Hinata asked, worried as she put her right hand on my shoulder
"Yeah, Im fine just thinking about todays physics test" I lied
We were already in front of our school. Our school's name was "Konoha Academy School" obviously..
We first went to the sophomore classrooms to leave Kiba and Hinata. Hinata ran to me and hugged me and said "See you later, Niisan" then smiled. Tenten gave a kiss to Kiba and Kiba smirked, which annoyed me. as we parted ways and head upstairs to the Junior classrooms Tenten asked me a question
"You and Hina-chan are getting closer, and when I mean by close I mean REALLY close, are you having the hots on her?"
I shrugged "No"
She had a disappointed look and walked in front of me and leaned to my face
"Yeah Right. But if you dont. Who are you interested in now?" she asked
'Great.. I cant just say "YOU, Tenten" that would be stupid' I thought
"Cant tell" I said
"but you do have a liking to someone" she asked again
I nodded
her face shined "AWW! Come On Neji! I wont tell anyone! Who do you like?" she asked
Luckily, the bell rang
I smirked "Were gonna be late"
"Ugh! dont change the subject" she yelled as we entered our rooms
[LUNCH]
I sat on a table with Tenten. The Sophomores werent dismissed for lunch yet. I wanted to take the time to stay with her until HE comes.
I took a bite of my sandwich "So hows Kiba?" I asked
"He's okay. Were Okay."
"Question Tenten, It was sudden that you and Kiba were gonna start dating.. how did you guys start lliking each other?" I asked trying to bring up a topic
"Well.. We talked about our crushes, and then we started laughing because he told me how he got Akamaru..that at first they didnt like each other and that Akamaru would bite his hand alot.. I accidentally fell on him and we kissed and I guess thats it" she said , eating a piece of nacho
"I see"
"Anyways, tell me! who do you like Neji"
"Why do you care?"
"Because I want to CARE!"
"well I cant tell"
"Why not? afraid your crush might know"
"Thats not it"
"Then tell me, HYUGA!"
the word Hyuga means that she's getting pissed
I quickly spotted familiar people
"The others are here" I said as I looked down to grab my bottle of tea
"WAZZUP, ?" Kiba shouted
"just eating" Tenten smiled as she sat up and kissed Kiba in the cheeks and told him to seat beside her. Hinata quietly skidded her way to sit beside me. An angry Ino came at us
"UGH! GUYS! I HATE YOU ALL!" she yelled as she slammed her tray of food on the table
"Why? whats wrong, I-Ino-chan?" Hinata asked quietly
"Whats wrong is that you guys didnt even buy a ticket for me"
"Sorry Ino, we got it for free and only got 4 tickets. If you want buy for yourself" Tenten said
"UFF! HOW MEAN! FINE I WILL!" she said, sitting down and began eating her lunch
"bzztt... bzztt ATTENTION! SOPHOMORES! THE MARIAN SONG HAS BEEN DUE NEXT WEEK AND NOT NEXT MONTH! DUE TO YOUR TEACHER KAKASHI'S LEAVE NEXT MONTH.. bztt bzztt THANK YOU!"
"WHAT? what bad timing Ser Kakashi" Kiba muttered
"T-Thats too bad" Hinata sighed
"Aww.. meaning no more movies tomorrow" Ino said
"Why? cant you practice next week?" Tenten asked
"Nahh.. Naruto's gonna catch us and drag us here if we dont come" Kiba sadly said
"What a misfortune" Hinata smartly said
"Then no movie!" Tenten said with a frown
"No! Watch the movie with Neji then!" Kiba said as he looked at Tenten
"N-NO!" Hinata said
We all looked at her
"Why not, Hina-chan?" Kiba ased confused
"umm well... because.. umm nevermind" she said, as she stood up and went to the trash can to throw her trash
"That was weird" Ino said
"Ok, anyways if me and Neji are going then what about these last two tickets?" Tenten asked as she showed the tickets
"Hmm.. "
"Shikamaru and Temari" I said
"OH YEAH! Shikamaru's a junior right?" Tenten said joyfully
"Yeah such a brainy" Ino laughed
"Ok then! We'll not waste those tickets! Ill just watch it some other time" Kiba said, acting nice but is actually disappointed
THE BELL RANG
"Well thats that for Lunch" Ino said getting up and walking with Kiba to the other side
Tenten smirked
"I cant wait till tomorrow! Better tell Temari and Shika!" she raced off going ahead of me
I sighed 'This should be interesting' I thought then smirked
[UPSTAIRS]
[TENTEN POV]
"SHIKA! TEMARI!" I yelled as I saw both of them walking together
"Whats up Tenten?" Temari smiled
"I have extra tickets. wanna watch with me and Neji tomorrow?"
"Hmmm? whats this? Two-timing?" Temari smirked
"What?"
"Temari. didnt you hear the announcement? The Sophomores have marian song practice" Shikamaru said
"What? really? guess I wasnt paying attention" Temari playfully put her tongue out
Shikamaru sighed and pulled his hand towards me
"Ok. we'll go"
"W-Wait! What do you mean by two-timing Temari?" I asked
"Oh. You and Kiba and You and N-" Temari was cut when Shikamaru put his hand on her mouth
"Dont mind her, Tenten we'll see you tomorrow" Shika confirmed and left with Temari scratching her head with an 'oops' written all over her face
"Weird..."
