Two Weeks With Tenten.

A/N: Hello! This is my first Neji/Tenten fan fiction so please be kind and most of all, I hope you enjoy it!

Summary: Neji's taking some time off from training and damn, he's bored like hell. That is, until he spots Tenten wanting to buy new weapons. One problem for her though, she's broke! Now, being a maid to earn some quick cash isn't so bad but if your master is the Hyuuga Neji, well lets just say that chaos and disasters are inevitable. Neji/Tenten, Tenten/Sasuke, Kiba/Hinata.

First chapter

Neji stared at Hiashi Sama blankly. Did he just say what he thought he just said? Neji thought to himself. It couldn't be. It was impossible! However, here he was, the head of the Hyuuga clan telling Neji that he needed some "time off" from training.

Neji narrowed his eyes and his voice went cold.

"Will all do respect," he said coldly, "why must I take time off?" I need to train, he demanded silently in his head. He would not dare unleash the wrath of the head of the Hyuuga clan though.

Hiashi looked down at Neji with arrogance.

"It's been decided," he said, "don't question my judgement Neji," he said in a warning tone.

Neji glared at him furiously beneath his pale violet eyes. How could he not train? He was the Hyuuga prodigy! He was a genius and he had never taken any time off from training no matter what. It simply did not bode well his everyday schedule.

"You've been pushing yourself" Hiashi sama said as if reading Neji's mind, " I wouldn't want the only Hyuuga prodigy to outdo himself" he snapped.

Neji nodded his head. He knew that Hiashi Sama didn't do this for his welfare. He knew damn straight that Hiashi Sama only wanted his strength and the strength of the Hyuuga Neji would contribute a lot of power and influence to the Hyuuga clan.

"You'll be staying at the guest house south of Konoha," Hiashi Sama stated as if nothing was wrong, "No one stays at that house. It's empty so you should have time to relax peacefully there"

Neji nodded his head again. He realised that if said something, it would surely end up in a fight.

"You may back your bags now" Hiashi ordered and with that Neji took his leave on him.

Tenten walked happily through the streets of Konoha. It was a bright day, the sun was shinning and best of all, training was cancelled due to some top-secret mission that Gai sensei had to attend. Oh what a wonderful day. It couldn't get any better Tenten thought happily to herself. It was rare that she could excuse herself from training. It was not that she hated training, in fact she loved it but lately she couldn't help feel that Neji was being more aggressive towards her as they sparred and to her horror, she had a disturbing feeling that since Neji was getting better (thought he was miles away ahead of her), maybe he wouldn't want to spar with her anymore? Tenten refused to answer her own thought. It won't happen she told herself hopefully.

Tenten continued walking down the road until something shinny caught her eye. She immediately settled her eyes on the kunai that rested elegantly inside the windowsill of a weapons shop. Tenten rushed towards it and placed her nose so near that she was almost touching the glass. It was decided. Tenten just had to buy those kunai. The kunai had an elegant shape and had a design of a phoenix at the edge if the blade. Tenten had never seen one as unique as that in her life. I want it she thought to herself and eagerly opened her wallet and to her absolute dismay, she was broke. Damn you to hell! Tenten cursed at her empty wallet. The gods simply were not in her favour today.

Tenten slowly sneaked at peak at the price tag which read 4000 yen (I have no idea about Japanese currency so lets all pretend that that's a lot of money ). Oh Kami! Tenten thought to herself damn it's expensive!

Tenten slouched her shoulders and started to sulk inside. She needed money and she needed it fast. Tenten just knew that those kunai would do justice to her proclaimed Weapon's Mistress Title.

"Hey"

Tenten turned round when she realised that someone was addressing her. Her eyes widen with surprise as she saw Neji standing in front of her. Well this is a surprise she thought to herself. She never saw Neji much outside training. It actually made her wonder what he did in his spare time.

"Hi Neji" she greeted as she waved at him, "How are you?"

"Hn" Neji replied. He wasn't bothered with the early formalities. No something else was on his mind. Something more deceiving. The tips of Neji's lips curled as he mused over his thought.

He, Hyuuga Neji just saw something interesting. He had come into town to buy some supplies that he thought he would need at the guesthouse when he saw Tenten staring desirably at some kunai outside the window. Neji smirked. He was somehow always amused with how Tenten reacted differently from other girls. Instead of drooling over make up as other girls would, Tenten was drooling over weapons, which could kill. Period. Moreover, that was how he got his plan as he watched Tenten open her wallet and saw her annoyed look and complete hatred towards her wallet. He was sure that if looks could kill, her wallet would be burning right now.

Neji took a step closer towards Tenten and flicked his eyes slowly over the kunai as if empathising how marvellous it was.

"Nice kunai" he stated.

Tenten nodded her head in agreement. She was glad that Neji was here but her sole attention was resting on how she was going to get the money.

"I need money," she stated as if it was the obvious thing on earth.

Neji raised an eyebrow.

Tenten continued.

"I want those kunais" she exclaimed excitedly. Then she paused as if she were thinking. Then giving Neji a look, Tenten took hold of her trouser pockets and opened them out.

"But as you see, I'm completely broke" she said in a joking tone.

"Hn"

"Hey Neji" Tenten said as if she got a sudden idea, "do you know where I can find part time work here?" she asked.

"How should I know" Neji replied coldly. Too coldly.

Tenten sighed. She was used to Neji's weird approach to socialising. His demeanour was what made him Neji and personally, Tenten couldn't see him any other way.

"Oh well" Tenten said. Then giving Neji a friendly pat on the shoulder she said, "I'm gonna look for a place where I can earn some quick cash. See you later" and turned round to leave.

"Wait" Neji demanded.

Tenten turned round and faced a smirking Neji.

"What is it?" she enquired.

"You need money don't you?"

Tenten nodded.

"Hiashi sama made me take a break from training"

Tenten's face frowned at those words. Neji continued but she could ask about it.

"He's making me stay at a Hyuuga guest house in the south of Konoha"

"What has this got to do with anything?" Tenten interrupted. She could have sworn that she just saw Neji's eyes glint evilly.

"Well I'm glad you asked" he empathised.

Tenten stared. She started to feel slightly uncomfortable. A happy Neji meant a scary Neji. She wasn't too sure whether or not she wanted to hear what Neji was about to say.

Ignoring Tenten's awkward movements, Neji continued.

"I need a maid to clean up after the guest house that I'm staying in. 1500 yen a week for two weeks. Those are my terms"

Tenten stared. Did she hear right? Did the Hyuuga Neji ask her to be his maid? And as if the clocks in her brain started ticking, Tenten realised his proposal. His maid!

Tenten gave Neji a weird look and put her hands on her hips.

"I might be broke," she said, "but I'm not going to be your personal slave!"

Neji raised his eyebrow.

"Well I don't see how you're going to get money faster than that" he deadpanned.

Tenten frowned. Personally, she had no problem being a cleaner to earn some quick cash but it was the fact that she was being Neji's personal slave that annoyed her. She knew that her pride would not allow it. And if her friends found out about it, she was sure that she would be the laughing stock of Konoha. No, it was decided. The humiliation would be too much for her to handle. However, those kunai do look very beautiful her mind reasoned to her. Oh damn you brain, Tenten cursed to herself, lend me some support will you!

"What's your answer?" Neji suddenly demanded. Tenten could have sworn that his eyes looked slightly serious for a second.

Tenten battled with herself. Dignity. Kunai. Dignity. Kunai? Which one was she suppose to choose!

"Fine!" Tenten huffed, "I'll take your bloody job" though her voice was shaking with reluctance.

Neji smirked. Oh yes, having Tenten work for him will be fun indeed.

"Hey wait a minute" Tenten suddenly inquired, "you said that you'd pay me 1500 yen a week and with two weeks that'll only sum up to 3000 yen. I need 4000 yen for my kunai," she stated.

Neji looked at her and smirked.

"That's your problem," he said flatly.

He could see Tenten fume with rage and anger. Seeing her angry made her look almost cuteNeji shook the thought away from his mind immediately. He wasn't too sure, why he had thought that Tenten looked cute for a second. She was no beauty like Ino or Sakura but she wasn't ugly either. She was just Tenten in his eyes and for Neji that suited him fine.

"I'll see you tomorrow at my house," he said, "and don't be late," he ordered as he took his leave, leaving Tenten in a state of shock and confusion.
