Chapter 2- The weird behavior

Recap chap 1

Tenten put the present on his bed and left, she walked to the kitchen and made herself some breakfast and dashed out of the house. She had an important mission to escort some people from the village of the hidden mist and take them to the leaf village to meet the hokage.

Tenten stood outside the Hyuuga mansion and knocked, it was Hinata.

"h-hi Te-Tenten" she stuttered

"Hey Hinata, um is Neji home?"

"U-um y-you just m-missed h-him, he ju-just le-left a second a-ago."

"Damn, oh well cya Hinata!"

"B-bye!"

She silently walks to lee's house and hopefully she'll find him there and she was right he was there. He was on his front lawn doing pushups.

Tenten walked up to him and said,

"Hey lee C'mon we have to go now"

"Yes, my young friend, we have to go to the hokage's office and claim our mission."

"Um... yea let's go or we'll be late!"

"Yes, my youthful friend we shall go now…"

"Race ya to the office!"

"My young friend I accept you challenge because I am full of youth and handsomeness *Pose*. You'll be amazed in how much youth I have in me…

Prepare to be scared! Tenten? Tenten? "

Tenten had long gone before she could even hear his long and very pointless speech. Lee sighed and ran after her.

End recap

A few minutes later in the hokage's office…

Tenten found out that she was the only one there… except for lady Tsunade. Then lee came bursting through the door with guy sensei behind him. Lee was upset because Tenten beat him to the hokage's office, With that he fell to the ground and started to do pushups, it was his way of punishing himself for losing the bet (race).

After lee did his 20 pushups Neji then came into the room. He looked terrible…. There was dirt on his face and his hair was a mess, the hokage stood up and asked if Neji was ok. Neji said he was fine and that he was helping his younger cousin, Hanabi, to train. Tenten didn't think that was all, he was hiding something but she didn't dare to ask now. He didn't even look at her, he spoke after a long silence.

"May I, for today, be dismissed from this mission?"

"Um... Sure Neji, I know it can be tiring to help a cousin train. I know, I always would help my cousins to train. So yes you may have this day off." She said sweetly.

"Thank you, Lady Tsunade"

He bowed and walked off. He didn't even smile at Tenten and he always did whenever he saw her.

Lee's Pov:

Man, what is up with Neji?

He always is the first to be here, in the office.

He was fidgeting when he was telling the hokage the training story.

Since when did Neji start to help his younger cousin?

He always said that she was annoying. He is obviously hiding something, but what?

And he always greets Tenten, now he made her upset; I will not forgive him for making my beautiful flower upset!

(Yes, in this story lee likes Tenten :))

Normal Pov:

So, the two students and teacher set off to complete their mission. All three of them had the same question in their heads. "What's wrong with Neji?"

Neji's Pov:

Uh. I hated lying, but today I had to. I couldn't get distracted again by Tenten's wonderful smile. WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT? I can't fall in love now! I have to earn up to my name as a Hyuuga and prove to everyone in my clan that I can do it and I'm not the boy I was once before…. But I can't help it. I can't help in liking the way she laughs or smiles. THERE I GO AGAIN! AHHH! I just can't get her out of my head….
