A/N: So, I'm taking ericcandy's 30 day OTP challenge on tumblr, and each day I will post one Drabble here, and link it to my tumblr, which is this - is - me - live - with - . tumblr . com. Somedays I'll include an illustration, so check out my tumblr for it! (If ya haven't guessed, I'm doing it on Nejiten)
On with the first day!
...
Day One: Holding Hands.
...
He is driving me crazy!
They were walking to their training ground that morning(which was normal), and they had been side by side, talking about nothing in particular(also normal), and then he held her hand. She let out a gasp.
She had no idea what to do. Her face flamed into a red blush, and her body stiffened.
She glanced up and him and he looked indifferent to his actions. She looked at their conjoined hands, and slowly, very slowly, gripped his hand gently. She squeezed it bravely, and looked up at him, who now had a ghost of a smile gracing his face.
"Oh yeah. I'm holding Hyuuga Neji's hand," she thought.
...
He hadn't meant to grasp her fingers. It was a slip of the hand, a mistake. But her gasp and blush at her hands enveloped in his, he wondered if it really was a mistake. She stiffened, but he still felt the softness of her fingers, even if the callouses and scars from handling her large artillery of weapons lined her fingers. He didn't dare look at her, definitely not, for fear of her reaction.
But his eyes betrayed him, and he glanced over at her for a short moment. She was pink-faced and confused. She then relaxed her body, as they walked over to their training grounds. She gave her hand a squeeze.
He smiled.
It occurred to him that he should have let go of her hand, because this is wrong, and of course, he didn't, because it felt so right.
And if he kept on getting that blush from Tenten, it's all worth it.
