Neji Hyuuga had been living in the main house for a while now, and at the age of 21, he felt this was his home. after teh embarrassing incident at the hospital, he just wanted to sit down and meditate.

But of course that wasn't going to happen. The moment he walked in the door, Hinata was on him. her blue-black hair had grown out almost as long as his own chocolate locks and her eyes were more of a lavender than a silver. But she had been his closest family. her and his team. ever since his uncle had decided to teach him personally, he had been treated as a main branch child. it was even thought that he would become the heir to the Hyuuga clan, since Hinata certainly didn't want to be. she thought she wasn't assertive enough.

but she was sure as hell being assertive right now. With her teeth bared she looked like some kind of deranged kitten. not that he would ever say anything. she stood at least 6 inches shorter than him, only a little taller than Sakura. that's when he realized why she was so mad. Sakura had told her. it made sense though. Naruto, Sakura's best friend and the furture hokage, was Hinata's fiance. so the girls got along pretty well. Most of the time at least.

And then the yelling began.

"HOW DARE YOU TOUCH SAKURA-CHAN? LET ALONE KISS HER?!?!"

Fleetingly Neji wished for the old, shy Hinata to break through. he waited a bit. Nope definatly not going to happen.

"I'm sorry, okay? It just sort of happened. okay? stop screaming." he said, hoping to placate her at least a little.

She just gave a really big sigh and dropped her glare. "I'm not mad you kissed her! I am mad you didn't tell me you liked her! UGH!!"

Now Neji was thoroughly confused. she what? why would he tell her? He decided to take up the defensive, marred only slightly by his stuttering.

"I do n-not like her! Why would you think that? The k-kiss was just an acident!"

Her only response was a wolfish grin that reminded him of Naruto and, though he would never admit it, was a little scary.

"Oh don't be so scared. I have a plan that's all."

it was deathly quiet as he considered. finally he shrugged off his doubts and stepped towards her.

"What do you have in mind?"
