This is going to be a one shot and maybe a continuous chain of them if you like. Please no flaming, constructive criticism is MORE then welcome.

"I'll race you there!" TenTen yelled at her newly found friend Neji Hyuuga. "whoever can jump off this weird overhang and land on their feet wins. Got it Neji?" Neji didn't say anything, just slowly nodded his head in understanding. The fact that he didn't talk much didn't bother TenTen like it would bother any other person. She liked it that way. He would listen to her go on about the most random things, and he would listen, of course inputting his own thoughts on the subject once in a while as well.
TenTen decided they would get a running start so she walked to the big Oak tree in the park, that every child liked to play under when the sun was scorching hot. Maybe even when it was raining an needed shelter from it. The Oak tree was in the middle of Konoha park close to the swing set, and a couple feet from the ledge the pair of children were about to jump off of.
TenTen had started her count down when Neji had reached her by the tree.
"3...2...-"
"Wait!" Neji had butted in to her counting.
"What is it? Something wrong?" TenTen commented a little big confused at Neji's sudden outburst due to the fact that he was not much of a talker. She watched quietly and curiously as she saw him slowly bed down. Then she realized he was tying his shoe. Not just tying but untying it as well. She watched slowly growing impatient with him as he tied his shoe at a 3 year old pace.
"NEJI! Hurry! I have to go home soon. Why are you tying your shoe as fast as a sn-" Then it dawned on her. He was stalling. Why though? "Neji are you, are you scared!"
"That is absurd TenTen why would I be afraid of something so ridiculous."
"Neji come on your eight you need to face your fears sometime." She smiled. "Plus I'll be there with you. We can hold hands when we jump too okay?" He looked at her and even though he was six he knew who to trust and who not to. As he looked at his new friend of 3 days, he realized he didn't know why but he trusted this girl. This loud, determined, devilish of a girl. So he stood up and brushed off his pants, and looked at TenTen sharing the same determination she did earlier and confidently told her "Hn, I guess since I was fated to be a ninja I will have to face my fears." TenTen's eyes went wide at this statement.
"You're going to be a ninja?" she asked
"Of course I am." his eyes narrowed. She saw this and scoffed at him.
"I didn't say it was a bad thing did I? I meant that's awesome because I'm going to be a Kunochi as well. Just like as strong and respected like Tsunade is." Neji believed her too. He believed she could do it.
Neji sighed "alright then, are we going to jump or not?"
"OH! I totally forgot umm yes we are." TenTen slowly reached out her hand and took Neji's. "Alright. 3...2...1...GO!" And they took off as far as their short legs could take them, and jumped off the overhang. Their hands freed from each other, while TenTen landed on her feet with a wobble, Neji fell on his hand and knees.
"Neji. AMAZING! You did it!" she smiled. Neji gave a tiney little smirk as well, and thought to himself 'yeah, I guess I did do it.'
"Is it time for you to be getting home TenTen it is getting dark now."
"Aww. Yeah I guess it is. Can we play Ninja tomorrow? You know for practice."
"Of course. By the way TenTen…thanks for helping." She gave him a big smile and replied "of course Neji." while running off towards her house. Neji Hn'ed loudly enough for her to hear him. TenTen being TenTen had to get the final word.
"Oh, and Neji by the way I WON!" she yelled/giggled even louder then before, and she swore that she could feel a pair of white eyes glaring daggers at her back.
