A/N: Hello! I decided to do a drabble collection of Neji and Tenten; short moments of inspiration that I decided to upload to tide over slow times hehe. Please read and review!


Short Moments 1: On Ways to Enjoy Dessert

It was a hot summer's day where the heat caused people to escape from the sizzling sun into the cool interiors of shoppes along Konoha Shopping District. In a blessedly air- conditioned café between two designer stores, a striking couple was having a small dispute.

"No. I refuse."

"But, Neji, it's delicious! Even the Konoha News advertises it! Come on, just one little mouthful?" The brunette smiled up at the man across her sweetly, trying to entice him into eating the dessert.

"…No." She could see he was wavering. Sniggering inside, Tenten pressed closer to him, deliberately widening her eyes that gave her an innocent, pouting look.

"Just one mouthful? I promise you won't regret it!"

"…" The silvery- eyed man sighed and opened his mouth resignedly, letting her feed him a spoonful of strawberry ice cream with a sliced banana. He could never resist it when she did that. Swallowing the cold dessert down his throat as fast as he could, Neji conceded that it had actually tasted… tolerable. What he had in mind though was infinitely more tempting… Neji's eyes gleamed as he gazed at his girlfriend, who was busily tucking into the infernal banana sundae.

After Neji had accepted the ice cream, Tenten had triumphantly dug another spoonful of ice cream, the vanilla one this time, and had just placed it in her mouth when his lips, still tasting of summer strawberries, descended on hers. The ice cream slowly melted into rich cream as their heated breaths mingled. His tongue sensuously invaded her mouth, sharing the sweet, caramel taste of vanilla with her. The scent of strawberry blended with the spice was a heady concoction that enticed their senses. Tenten was, Neji decided hazily as the kiss wound on pleasurably and leisurely, definitely the cherry on top of the ice cream.

The banana sundae sat forgotten on the café table as the couple found another, much more enjoyable way of sharing dessert.
