Disclaimer: Naruto does not belong to me no matter how much I want it to.
Authors: warnings: There is a hint of yaoi in here, so readers beware. Oh, and some OOC goodness.
Additional warning: this is a story written by a mentally disadvantaged person with nothing better to do. I'm not sure where I'm gonna go with this.
A pair of pearly eyes stared out at the courtyard where the heiress of the Hyuuga clan sparred vehemently with her little sister. They followed every finger that struck a blow, every foot that took a step, every fine hair that blew in the wind.
Those hands were accurate, those feet were sure, and even their hair played a roll no matter how small in the delicate balance that directed the fight. There was almost a rhythm to it, a carefully planned strategy that made this sparring session into a complicated dance.
There was another rhythm, this one very soft and a lot slower, but growing steadily louder and nearer.
Scene changes…….well, sort of.
Hyuuga Neji walked down an almost deserted corridor, inhabited only by a few bugs, a fly or two, and a fine layer of dust. Nobody ever bothered to visit her anymore. Nobody had wanted to for six years.
...Besides him.
He was the only one who ever came down these hallways, except for the servants once a month to clean briefly. Her food was brought by a dumb waiter, which could be used to carry food all over the house.
It disgusted him.
He ran his hands over the bamboo frame hesitantly as if having second thoughts about opening the rice paper screen door.
The visitors who used to come, who never returned; their fear was not unfounded.
Even Neji himself had a slight case of nerves on these weekly visits.
……But he always came back.
That was the one thing that set Neji apart from the others. He always came back to her, no matter what, and regularly. Even Hinata's ventures here were few if you consider her enormous heart.
His hand slid the screen door open silently.
So likies, no likies?
...Come on people, tell me!
Anyway, first Naruto fic, so don't expect anything extravagant.
