"T-Tsunade wants everyone to meet in her office a-at 11:30 today. W-W-ill you be ready?"
His sliver eyes stared up at the white ceiling of his room in the Hyuga manor.
Neji had been lying awake for quite some time not wanting to leave the warmth of his bed or face his cousin, Hinata, who had been knocking quietly on the door for some time now.
"N-Neji-nii-san…?" Hinata stuttered from the hall, "W-We need t-to leave soon."
She inhaled deeply. "T-Tsunade wants everyone to meet in her office a-at 11:30 today. W-W-ill you be ready?"
Hinata waited quietly outside his door for an answer.
And waited…
And waited…
And-
"N-Neji…?"
Neji sighed deeply as he swung his legs over the side of his bed and touched his feet to the floor.
"Yeah alright" He called, "All meet you at the front door in a minute or two".
"O-Oh, okay!" Hinata replied as she turned down the hall and into the kitchen.
Neji's frowned deepened, if Tsunade wanted everyone there that meant Lee too.
He wasn't sure if he could handle seeing that goofy grin of his. Instead of only days ago when Lee had finally asked out Tenten, the new love of his life (she said 'yes'), it seemed liked years that all of Konoha had had to put up with seeing them everywhere together, listening to them talk about their future's together. Just thinking about it had made his head hurt.
Jealously?
No, definitely not. There was no way in hell hewas jealous.
Right?
Neji pulled on his usual clothes and headed for the front door to meet Hinata.
What could Tsunade possibly want?
Hinata greeted Neji they same way she always did with a low bow and a word or two.
Silently, the two headed to the center of their village hidden in the leaves. The sound of birds singing in the trees and children playing in the near by river could be heard by both Hyugas. Someone behind them was laughing. You could distinctively tell that were at least six of them. Neji knew he had heard their laughter before but he was unable to register where exactly he had heard it.
Hinata knew though. She knew each and everyone of them. She had grown use to them. After all, with her and the missing member of team seven, Uchiha Sasuke included, they became 'the rookie nine'. But out of her eight friends, there was one she knew the second he let out his first words, which in fact, were the words that had started the fit of wild laughter to begin with.
Kiba Inuzuka was in the group.
She knew his laugh. She would have known his laugh from anywhere. His light chuckle. The way he looked when he laugh. His sweet dark eyes becoming slits and his mouth showing all of his perfect teeth. That alone, was enough to cause a comatose. My goodness what has this loud and head-strong boy done to me?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
"Kiba, that was the stupidest thing I've ever heard!" Shikamaru said lazily while trying to catch his breath after finishing his part of the fit of laughter.
"Then why were you laughing so hard!" Sakura choked, trying to stop laughing but laughing all the more because she couldn't. Shikamaru just shot her a glare. "Hey" she continued, "Isn't that Neji and Hinata? It is isn't it! Hey Neji! Hinata!"
Seven of the rookie nine members stared ahead excepting the heads of the ninja in front of them to turn.
They didn't.
"Maybe they didn't hear you" Ino said
" Step aside ladies and allow a profession through" Kiba said, moving to the front of the group. "HEY NEJI! HINATA!"
No reply.
"NEJI! HINATA!"
Neji's head turned to Hinata, he whispered some thing then turned back to the path ahead of them.
"...hmm...One more time I guess." Kiba sucked in a huge breath "NNEEEJJJJJIIIIIIIIIII! HHHIIINNNNATTAAAA!
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?" Neji screamed to the group of seven after re-appearing behind them.
"...ugh...well we are all headed to Tsunade's office...we thought maybe you wanted to walk with us..." Kiba smiled in Hinata's direction and she burst into a flaming red ball of embarrassment, seeing this made not only Kiba smile but Ino and Sakura as well.
"Well we don't'' Neji's monotone voice announced.
"P-Please N-Neji, I wouldn't mind w-walking with t-them" Hinata whispered. She looked at Kiba who stood smiling back at her,
"That's my girl" He said. Hinata turned an even brighter shade of red and focused her eyes down into the dirt road.
"Fine, but stay away from her" Neji growled at Kiba.
Sakura smiled. Ino smiled. Both girls could feel it. Kiba and Hinata. What a unique attraction.
The large group stared up at the Fifth Hokage's office.
"I wonder..." Sakura sighed "I wonder what she could possibly want.
Neji stared at the pink hair ninja. It was like she had read his mind. He had just started to re-think the same thing.
What she could possibly want?
