I don't own neji or Tenten, or anyone from naruto really. So sad I don't even own that idiot.
"Neji."
"Hn" what a boring response.
"Will you do me a favor?"
"Hn."
"Take me ice skating." he was surprised, she could see it in his emotionless white eyes.
"Why?" he asked, unfazed.
"Because I want to know how." she said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"No" he answered simply.
"Why not? Tenten pouted."
"That's a stupid reason."
"No it isn't"
"Ask lee."
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"He trains with Gai. They said something about running up a mountain 200 times in the snow. I don't know where they're going to get a mountain though."
"Tenten I'm not taking you ice skating."
"Pleeeeeeeease?"
"…" This meant that he was thinking. It took him a moment but finally she heard a simple okay. See it wasn't that hard to get him to do you favors. At least not as hard as everyone else said.
"This isn't hard at all!" shouted a cheerful Tenten at a cold neji who was in a rather bad mood.
"Tenten"
"Yes?"
"You aren't on the ice yet."
"Oh" she sighed dejectedly.
He just took her hand and pulled her onto the ice. She wobbled but was able to stay balanced thanks to the wall and Neji's warm hand.
She let go of the wall and skated with just neji there to keep her from falling. She smiled maybe this wasn't going to be so hard after all.
She let go of his hand and fell. Flat on her face.
"Ouch." Tenten groaned rolling over onto her back for she didn't trust herself enough to get up again.
It took several hours, all afternoon and even more falls before Tenten was able to skate without the comfort of Neji's hand but she did do it.
Eventually.
Though neji was a little disappointed that she didn't need him anymore.
"Thank you neji, for teaching me to ice skate."
"Hn"
"I thought you would be mad at me."
"Hn"
"you know since we wasted a whole afternoon."
"Taking an occasional break keeps your body from becoming weaker due to overexertion."
They were walking home together since Tenten lived near the Hyuuga compound. They almost always walked home together from training.
"Well ill see ya later neji. Bye."
She kissed him on the lips before grinning and running the rest of the way home, leaving him standing there alone and surprised.
On that wasted afternoon several people had gone by and watched Tenten learning to skate. But all they saw was Tenten and neji skating together hands entwined.
Eh I don't really like it but whatever. i kind of suck at writing happy endings.
