Tenten hadn't expected much from the exam. It was her second time seeing it come around, anyway. And after the brief... lunacy with entering the hall the floor below, she was also praying not to expect much. A girl could only deal with so much humiliation in a day.
So it didn't happen because she was trying. If anything, as Tenten scanned the questions on the sheet of paper in front of her, pursing her lips, there wasn't a curious thought in her head. Aside from those directly related to what she was reading.
Even as she did her best to not be caught cheating red-handed, it was the furthest thing from her mind. Still, as she scooted forward in her seat, there came a most peculiar tingling. A most pleasant pressure. An honorable heat.
And it had nothing to do with the fact she'd just caught some guy attempting to look through her shirt. No... this was something different... very different indeed...
She ignored the feeling, as best she could, obediently copying down answers from those more knowledgeable. Or who had cheated faster. Or bull-shat their way through. It didn't matter. She was getting answers, wasn't she?
Yet distraction lay everywhere. The tiniest shift - and oh! Moving her legs was an ecstatic joy. Sitting up straight was a sublime experience.
That damn kid was still looking at her. She could see him. Couldn't any of the examiners? Even if he wasn't cheating...
Another small movement, and Tenten was distracted again. What was this? She couldn't afford to - oh. She was done. The tenth question sat like a white elephant, refusing to be known until the last fifteen minutes.
As she fidgeted, then went rock still, something occurred to Tenten. Her mouth opened in a little oh of understanding. That is... I've found...
Could this be?
...The clitoris?
Time stopped. Or something. Then immediately kept going, because time is a bitch, and practices California stops, which means she'll slow down, and roll through, before speeding the hell up and leaving skid marks around the turn.
For Tenten, the entire display with the last question was lost in importance. If you fail to answer it, everyone fails? Sounds peachy. She had found the clitoris. That was awesome. She had finally found the clitoris. Tenten had a one up on the world.
She only hoped she could... you know... actually locate it... again... later... without the pants.
It was on that note that she heard everyone had passed. And caught sight of pervy boy two rows back staring at her chest - again.
When she joined up with Neji, and a rather ecstatic Lee, moments later, neither thought to question why she had a kunai out, nor why she was looking particularly cat-caught-the-canary pleased. Nor did they notice some random boy clutching his cheek and leaving at a rather hurried pace.
Nor did Tenten care.
After all...
Clitoris...
