Lenia: Okay so this is by no means my first NejiHina, it's just the first one I've posted! Or even typed so far...

Neji:Yes well are you going to continue?

Lenia: Give me a sec. Okay so anyway Hinata has grown out of her annoying stutter in this...I have reading a stutter and hate writing them too.

Gaara:Especially cause your shoulder is a pain for you.

Lenia:That too. Anyway I want Reviews! I'll say it at teh end. I just want Hinata to do some warnings and we're off.

Hinata: Hello, Lenia does not own Naruto or the characters, this may be slightly AU and contains themes of Incest. If you don't like it don't read, falmes will be used to light insence on Lenia and Gaara's romantic dates. That is all, if we forgot anything let us know.


Chapter 1-I Give Thee Everything

Neji opened the door to his room. He walked in and flopped onto the bed, another hard day of training with Hinata. As he thought her name her image popped into his head, her purple tinted innocent eyes, and those blushing cheeks when he praised her. He was once again forced to stop himself from running down the hall and confessing and being completely out of character. Not to mention she was meeting with Hiashi and his intrusion would mean punishment. He remembered after he had shamed himself by attempting to kill her, they had kept the mark activated every day until he passed out for three days. Hinata had been ordered to stay away from him, she never listened. Every day she would sneak into see him and hold him while he was out, she provided his head with her lap so he could be comfortable, and she had sung sweet melodies to him. One day he woke up.

"I don't deserve this." He said.

"Everyone deserves forgiveness, I can't say I'm not scared but you look so vulnerable I have to protect you. They make me watch it, the torture they put you through. You're strong to put up with that, to be able to take it like you do. I don't know of any man, even my own father who would be able to withstand that." She had said and kissed his seal, the aching disappeared from behind his eyes. Hinata smiled and gave him a pillow. "When you hear someone stuff it away." She said and rushed out of the cell. He placed his head on the pillow and tried to imagine it was Hinata's lap.

Neji blinked, the light in his room was on. In the doorway stood a nicely filled out woman, she stepped in and closed the door.

"I'm sorry to bother you Neji." She said in a quiet vulnerable voice. Neji was reminded that he was in the present.

"You're not Hinata-sama" He said.

"I am though, you were sleeping, I'm sorry. Maybe I should go...Father can wait." She said and headed for the door. "He knows how much you need to sleep, between my training and missions. I can't blame you for being tired." She said and opened the door. Neji appeared behind her and shut the door again, trapping her between it and him. It was the only way to get information.

"What does Hiashi-sama want?" He asked.

"He wishes to speak with you. About your ANBU status and this clan." She whispered. Neji nodded and moved back, he then kissed Hinata's forehead like he did every night after finding her in his cell and squeezed past her to get to Hiashi's study.

"Good night Hinata-sama. "He said.

"Neji." She stopped him. He turned back.

"It's Hinata; I don't like being higher up than you, especially not now." She said and kissed his cheek, dangerously close to his mouth. "Good night." She said and breezed past. Neji stood still for a minute and walked to Hiashi's study dazed and a bit confused. What had she meant when she said especially now."


Hinata walked into her room, Hanabi was waiting there as always, around everyone else she pretended to be better than Hinata but she was actually almost more protective then Neji.

"What did he say Omouto?" She asked.

"Don't worry Imouto, it is nothing serious." Hinata said and sat on her bed. Hanabi crossed her arms from where she sat at Hinata's vanity.

"Liar, it is too serious." Hanabi said and got up. "Did he hurt you?" She asked white eyes flashing. Hinata chuckled.

"No, he didn't touch me, didn't even give me a kiss goodnight. He wanted to talk about the future of the clan. I need to be married to succeed. I have to wed by eighteen." Hinata said.

"WHO?" Hanabi shouted.

"Neji is a possibility, if he doesn't say yes, one of the elders, or another older man. Father said he would give Neji a few days to think after he tells him." Hinata said. Hanabi spun on her heels and fixed Hinata with one of her most angry looks.

"He better say yes." Hanabi said through gritted teeth.

"I hope he does as well, but this is Neji and we know nothing of how he'll react." Hinata said. Hanabi calmed herself and sat on the bed next to Hinata.

"Omouto? Do you want him to say yes because he's close to your age and not fifty like the most eligible elder or do you like him?" Hanabi asked putting strain on the word like. Hinata blushed.

"A little of both." She said quietly. "He has to give up being ANBU though, and if he even wants to be a ninja the only thing he can do is teach students and gate work. I don't expect him to do that." Hinata finished. Hanabi nodded and kissed her sister on the cheek.

"Okay, I understand how you feel, I wouldn't want someone to give everything up for me to keep me from marrying and close to death geezer. I'm going to bed, night." She said and left Hinata's room. Leaving Hinata to the solace of her thoughts.


Hiashi and Neji sat across from each other. Neji was contemplating what Hiashi had told him. He was the closest in age to Hinata and pretty close to her herself. If he said no Hiashi would marry Hinata to someone over three times her age and on the verge of death. There was a catch; he had to not be an ANBU. He could teach and take Genin on missions but he couldn't be an ANBU, something he had worked his whole life on. Something he had done for his father. And he had to ask himself if he could throw it away to be with Hinata...the answer, Yes.

"I'll give you time to think about it." Hiashi said seeing Neji's contemplative look.

"No need." Neji said.

"Don't make a hasty decision." Hiashi said afraid he wasn't choosing Hinata.

"It's not hastened. I have thought it through. I wish to wed Hinata; I want to lead a team of children from the academy when they pass." Neji said.

"If that is truly okay" Hiashi said, hoping the young man in front of him was truthful.

"It is." Neji said.

"Well, it's settled, we will tell Hinata tomorrow." Hiashi said getting up. Neji sat on his knees and bowed till Hiashi closed the door behind him. Then he got up as well, now he knew what Hinata had meant. A husband and wife, no matter the status we're always equal. Neji smiled softly to himself then wiped it off his face leaving a stoic mask behind.
