It was night time and you flopped to the ground, pulling your mass of blankets around you. Everyone else brought sleeping bags but you thought blankets were much more comfortable. As you floundered in your little world of fluffiness Lee sat down next to you and rolled out his own sleeping bag. He smiled enormously at you and you grinned back.

Here are a few things of importance about you: 1) Your best friend is Lee. 2) Lately you've been having odd images involving your best friend Lee pop into your head, and no matter how much you tried they couldn't easily be pushed away. 3) You talk in your sleep. Someone blew out the lights and kept your eyes wide open. Who knows what would happen if you fell asleep, so you started doing arithmetic in your head…but without even realizing it your head hit the pillow, your eyes closed, and your REM cycle whirled to life.

The shinobi were sleeping, and then woken by a noise.

"Hn…hmmnnaaaah…Lee-kun, don't…don't touch me there…."

Odd tiggling sounds woke you and you sat up to see all the ninja looking at you, giggling or smirking. The only one who wasn't was Lee, who was looking at you wide-eyed and with an open mouth.

"Was I…talking in my sleep?"

He nodded.

You stood up, stared straight ahead, and left the sleeping area, dragging your mass of covers behind you. You found a nice big tree and settled under it, then wrapped yourself into a cocoon of covers. Here is what was going through your mind: bakabakabakabakabakabakabakabakabaka…

"Knock knock," a voice said.

You peered out of your cocoon of shame so see Lee crouching in front of you then panicked and hid your face back under the blankets. He lifted the bottom of the cocoon and slipped inside.

"Wow, it is like your very own cave," he said and smiled.

You continued to stare at the ground.

"Ame-san, do not be embarrassed…I thought it was cute."

Cute!? Is that the right word for it? you screamed in your mind.

"What were you dreaming about?" he asked. You shot your head up and saw he was sitting very close. "What was I touching that you did not want me to touch?"

Your breath hitched in your throat at the noticeable drop in his voice and you couldn't find the words to speak. You shivered when he blew faint warm air into your ear, whispered "I will help you remember," and brushed a lock of hair out of your face.

"Was it here?" he asked and ran his fingers feather light from your fingertips to your shoulder blade. "Or here?" he said, ghosting his palm across your thigh. "Here?" he reached the bottom of your pajama shirt and slid his hand under to your stomach and drew empty patterns around your navel.

"For so long I've wanted to touch you like this. But our friendship meant the world to me and if ruined it I might have died. Now I know that now is the right time to make…my…move…"

He brought his lips to yours, and was so soft and gentle you turned into a lump of putty. He kissed you deeper and pulled you to him, applied more pressure with his hands. You felt your shirt come up over your head, followed by Lee's and he hugged you tightly to keep out the cold night air. A hand slipped up under your bra as he rubbed and pinched you.

"Ahh…Lee-kun…" you couldn't hold back.

He giggled. "Oh, so that's what I was doing…"

You were found the next day, half-naked, curled up into Lee's (also half-naked) arms. The ninja either giggle, wolf-whistled, or blushed when they found you, then awwed when Lee woke and kissed you sweetly on the lips.
