Her feelings - My Team

'MY LOVELY STUDENTS! I HAVE A MISSION FOR YOU!' Gai yelled out in excitement 'It am S rank mission: you are to carry these supplies to the local town, it the same town in our last mission'

'YOSH! We'll be able to visit our old friends! Oh how I missed them!' Lee also excited at the new mission

'Lee… it has only been a day…' Tenten reminded him a sweat drop on top of her face.

The previous day, they had a mission to go into a local town to investigate missing scrolls. The town was famous for their scrolls whether it was just plain scroll to write on or to summoning scrolls. It turned out that a ninja was stealing them for his personal interest. It was nothing that a few Byakugan, swift kicks and weapon summoning couldn't handle.

Lee quickly rushed to Tenten, holding her hand and shouting even though their faces were only a couple of centimeter apart 'THIS IS OUR YOUTH! EVERY MOMENT IS PRECIOUS!'

'Oh? Really?' another sweat-drop appearing.

'Carrying supplies is an S rank mission?' Neji questioned Gai for he had known to over exaggerate

'Oh yes! You are also to be given an additional mission once you get there… however it's top secret and the detailed are sealed…EVEN TO YOUR LOVING TEACHER!'

Neji sighed deeply

And so Neji, Lee and Tenten headed off…

- MISSION : START!-

'Poowy!' Tenten exclaim quietly to herself, as she dropped the boxes that she was carrying

'TENTEN what's you matter? If those boxes are to heavy give them to me…I'll carry them!' Lee yelled out to Tenten

'It nothing Lee! Thank you' Tenten replied quickly, not wanting to bother her teammate

'Geez that the third time she dropped them' Lee informed Neji

Neji nodded but didn't really much show concern. He knew that the boxes were nothing to Tenten; it was probably just her being clumsy.

'Ok let's take a break!' Neji called out to his teammate.

'NEJI! LET US HAVE A LUNCH TRAINING SESSION!' Lee suggested to Neji

'Hm' He agreed. He was always ready for a chance to improve his skills

'Ano… Neji I think I'll sit this one out…' Tenten said sheeply

'Tenten you most of all need training' He replied to she coldly, he hated lazy people and expected more from his teammates.

Tenten lowered her head. Lee told see that the comment hurt Tenten. True, she was weaker compared to him but she was better then him in the case of close and far distance combat, and compared to Neji well… his a freak!

'I… my…' Tenten said

'Neji when I said training I meant…uh …A CHALLENGE!' Lee quickly said 'I CHALLENGE YOU!'

Neji give a smirk before agree

'I'll look after the supplies' Tenten replied. And went off to sit on some rocks next to the stream. 'That Lee for you. Always trying is best to keep the team together, he seem to know Neji best'

After half an hour Neji returned to the resting site. He was feeling quite good about himself as he was totally beat Lee. Neji went to see Tenten it was time they headed off. He found Tenten sitting on a rock, as was fidgeting was her fingers. Curious of what she was doing he slowly walked to her.

She had one end of a thin bit a material in her mouth and the other end was held with her right hand. She was trying to, and very unsuccessfully at that, wrap her thumb on her left finger. Both thumbs were red and bleeding.

He had forgotten that in the previous mission, she did had to summon a lot of weapons and different times, which required blood seals and usually done by biting your fingers and bleeding from that. Obviously her fingers hadn't had time to heal.

He sighed deeply and walked towards her.

Hearing his foot steps Tenten quickly drew one of her scrolls from her pouch. 'Neji! Geez don't do that!' still having the piece of material hanging from her month.

He sighed again 'Sure you should be summoning?' he asked.

'Well… considering a stranger got so close to me before I heard their foot steps, the likelihood of the ninja attack was the logical conclusion thus the proper action was…'

'It a rhetorically question Tenten' cutting her off and looking at her fingers

She notice this 'Oh!...ah!' the piece of material flouted down, out of her mouth, which was quickly caught by Neji.

'Give them here' Neji instructed her, she handed over her scrolls pouting and a little frustrated 'They are mine you know…' she said in a sheepish voice

He sighed deeply in response, shaking his head at how clueless Tenten was. He took the scrolls placing them in his pouch. He then, grabbed her hands and with the material he caught earlier gave her fingers first aid. It was over quickly and Tenten was still pretty lost. Neji threw her scrolls back to her which was mistakenly given to him, which set a light bulb off in her head, as the realization of what he did finally sunk in. 'That Neji for you. He could be completely distance and still be a gentleman'

'THANK YOU NEJI' she said with a sweet smile.

'Next time ask for help'

'But Neji, you and Lee were busy during to battle with your own opponent!' thinking he was referring to the fight they had with the enemy in the previous mission.

Neji sighed at the fact that Tenten didn't understand 'I meant your fingers Tenten'

'HAI! There better now! Thank you!' interrupting what his said as a statement of concern for fingers.

Neji gave a slight smile before sighing again 'I don't know what to do with you half the time…' before he could finish he was cut off by a distance scream

'NEJI!' It was Lee finally return from their match 'HOW COULD YOU JUST LEAVE AN INJURED ME LYING THERE!'

Neji gave out an 'Hm' trying to end the 'conversion'

'HM! IS NOT AN ANSWER! YOU SHOULD HELP ME NEXT TIME'

Neji gave out another 'Hm' and a smirk

'NEJI YOU'RE ENJOYING THIS AREN'T YOU?'

Tenten couldn't help but laugh out aloud 'That's my team for you'

'Tenten?' Lee worried at the sudden outburst of laughter, then noticing her fingers 'Ah! Your fingers'

She quickly ran ahead and then turned 'SA! Shall we go?' continuing ahead 'YOUTH remember?'

'Yosh!'

They picked up there things and supplies to continue their mission.

GRUMMM

'What was that?' Tenten asked

'I didn't hear anything' they both replied

'HA! Jinx!' Lee shouted! 'Now you can't talk' in which Neji didn't reply. He never did understand why Lee bother to jinx him, it not like his the talkative type. 'Try and make me say you name! Come on Neji!' in which Neji gave a smirk 'OH NO!'

Tenten scared into the distance, wondering was that just her imagination

'Tenten, hurry' Neji called out to her

'I'm coming!' She gave one more stare, and then continues to follow Neji and Lee

GRUM

Hmmm... what was that noise? LoL
