"I am not going! There is no way in hell you're going to make me." Tenten said firmly and even stomped her foot with arms crossed tightly to prove her point. It didn't help the fact her chest popped out slightly more than usual from the pose and the fact she was addressing her boyfriend. Least to say he was not looking at her face.
"You only have to be there for a little bit until I show up and get you, okay?"
"That's what you said last time but what happened? You trained too hard and passed out! You are a liar Hyuuga Neji!"
"I hate it when you use my last name, and I won't pass out this time."
"I will not go to this stupid gathering-party, whatever…thing. You'll have to hold me down, dress me, and drag me over there yourself if you want me to go."
"Oh, you should have said so in the first place." Neji said and suddenly dived at Tenten but she perceived the attack and shrunk out of the way, running past a pile of clothes on the floor and grabbing the item that caught her eye. "BACK OFF I HAVE PANTS!" Tenten shouted and Neji actually paused to process what his hysterical girl friend had just screamed in the middle of his bedroom. It was then he realized what she was holding in her hand. His favorite pair of pants was fisted in one hand while a very sharp kunai was in the other hand.
"Now Tenten, you wouldn't-" He clamped his mouth shut when the tip of the kunai dragged across the soft fabric in a daring fashion. "We can work this out." He says mostly to calm down Tenten, but also himself.
"I will not under any circumstances go to that gathering-"
"Party whatever thing. Fine alright, now please give me my pants back." God he hoped she would give them back, he even said please and everything!
"Hey Neji, is that one girl, oh…" Hanabi walked in and paused in the doorway, very confused at the sight she came upon.
"Didn't I tell you to knock?" Neji asks threateningly.
"The door was open, what is going on?"
"Nothing! Get out!"
"Uncle wants to know if she's coming or not."
"Yes, now go!" Neji answers without thinking properly.
"Neji, did you forget what I'm holding?" Tenten asks with false sweetness while making to cut a hole in the fabric just a millimeter away from the cloth.
"I mean no, she's not going." He corrects quickly and inwardly sighs to see the kunai inch away from his favorite pair of pants.
"Whoa, hold on. She's bribing you by cutting up your laundry? That is sad, just-" Hanabi steps closer to Tenten but Neji tackles her instinctively.
"Don't! Those are my favorite pair of pants!" He growls while Hanabi suppresses her laughter. A rustling makes them both turn their heads to the window, which was now suddenly open. Tenten had jumped out it seconds before, leaving the prized uncut fabric in a pool on the floor. Neji sighed annoyed and got up off the floor, Hanabi following.
"So…"
"She'll be there as soon as I track her down." Neji says and jumps out the window, activating his Byakugan as he goes. Hanabi glances at Neji's pants, an evil grin forming on her face.
"Favorite pants huh? I'll just have to look after them…" She snags the cloth and disappears with it while thinking of the possible ways to bribe Neji with their safe return.
