YOU TWO ARE SO NICE!!!! THANK YOU!!!!! I HAVE A FEELING THAT WE ARE ALIKE IN MORE THAN ONE WAY!
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
Drabble One- Cookie Dough ( kagomeXNeji )
"Neji-kun!" Whined kagome, staring at the neutral expression on her husbands face. He smirked, chewing slowly on one of her newly baked cookies. "C'mon!! tell me what you think!!" She pouted as he just ignored her, munching on the warm, perfectly made gingersnaps his wife thought to make him.
He didn't understand why she kept asking when she already knew the answer, heck, she was FAMOUS for her talent in making anything with sugar!
He watched as her shoulders slumped, her demeaner going from excited and innocently oblivious to sad and dejected.
"Oh... gomen, Neji-kun. I didn't mean to be a bother. I'll just go." She turned, and a pang of guilt hit his gut.
Oh come ON! Really! They were awesome cookies...but didn't she already KNOW that?
Neji sighed silently and got up, pacing over to his wife and hugging her close to comfort her.
She turned and embraced him back, rubbing her face into the hyuuga symbol on the haori she made for him.
" Kagome." Her eyes looked up, and he felt the familiar light-headed feeling that happens every time he looked at her chocolate, slightly gold-tinted eyes filled with love. He felt his own soften and reflect his own love, as she answered with a shy 'yes, Neji-kun?'.
"You're cookies are always good, koi. I know you know that, as you ask everytime you make them. But why does it upset you if i don't answer?"
She smiled a bit. "Because, Neji-kun, while i know you like them, i still love hearing it, seeing as it's the only thing i can do for you now that we're married and you won't let me become a shinobi like you."
He tensed and nearly growled as he remembered their argument over that very subject.
They had been cuddling in their bed, and she had asked if she could become a shinobi, like him, to protect the village like everyone else.
She had felt that she was useless, and he had known that. But, still...
thinking of her in a battle with anyone for any reason, upset him.
And thinking of her with even a bruise, made him angry.
But worst of all...thinking of losing her to a failed mission made his gut tighten and tears well up in his pearly eyes. He couldn't bear it.
No, not one bit. He had many visions of her lying bloody and barely breathing on a battle field. Being held in captivity and tortured for
information that she either didn't have, or wasn't willing to give up by enemy nin. or being kidnapped by the Akatsuki for her 'talents' as
a miko and being impervious to jutsu.
He shuddered and ripped his mind away from those thoughts, instead, thinking of one of his favorite things.
"Not on your life, mine, or this village's existence will i EVER let you become a shinobi, Kagome. Not you."
She pouted, but let it rest, knowing of his fears and not wanting to provoke him. She let him pick her up and carry her to their sofa, cuddling into him when he set her next to him with a content sigh.
He smirked, and kissed her gently on the lips.
" Hey koi, do you still have some of the cookie dough from yesterday?"
With a surprised gasp and a playfully wounded yelp, she grabbed a small pillow, and smacked him with it, then ran off while he was in his stunned stupor.
"COOKIE DOUGH!? I BAKED YOU COOKIES AND YOU WANT COOKIE DOUGH!?!" She yelled from the safety of their bedroom, a pout on her lips as she twisted
the lock. She failed to notice Neji slip in through the open window, but noticed when he pulled her to him and kissed her passionately.
After a moment of surprise, she responded, closing her eyes and deepening it sweetly.
He broke the kiss when he felt she needed air. He smirked after a minute.
" Now, koi, what about my cookie dough?"
