Hey, missed me? I hope so! Well this is the dinner at Felis's house with Neji and her family…

I hope you enjoy it!

Chapter 2

AT THE NARA'S HOUSE

I unlocked the front door and stepped inside my house. I found dad on the couch, watching TV and mom cooking. I hugged mom and then dad.

"Dad, Neji Hyuuga is coming over tonight for dinner."

His brow lifted as he stared at me.

"Is it a date?" my mother asked smiling.

"No, it's a thank you dinner because he saved me from public embarrassment." I said blushing.

"I see; he is welcomed." Dad said and kissed the top of my head.

I run to mom to help her with dinner.

After an hour or so, the door opened revealing a very, very sweaty Shikamaru. I kept staring at him; he was so hot!

"Hi mom, hi dad." He said and started walking towards his room.

"What happened to you, son?" Dad asked.

"Training to be a ninja is so troublesome!" he said and left.

I giggled because of his bad habit of using the word 'troublesome' all the time.

When dinner was ready, we all sat at the table. I heard the bell ring and went to the front door to answer it. When I opened the door, I saw Neji, with very neat clothes.

"Hi, it's nine o'clock sharp." He said with a smile.

"Ok, come in!"

We both made it to the table. Father and mother exchanged bows with Neji. After the bows finished, Neji took out from a big bag he had with him, a bottle of sake and gave it to dad.

"This is the best sake in town, mister Shikaku!" Neji announced and dad's smile widened.

Then Neji took out a box of chocolates and gave it to mom.

"I've heard that these are you favorite, miss Yoshiro!"

Mom nodded and took the chocolates. He turned to me and gave me a purple rose. He placed behind my ear and into my orange hair.

"Can I ask your permission to kiss your daughter, mister Shikaku?" Neji asked and I blushed when dad nodded. He leaned in and kissed my cheek.

"Ok, let's have dinner." Mom said we all sat down and started eating.

Neji ate slowly, but he was staring at me the whole time. Shikamaru stood up and left.

"Where are you going, son? It's rude to leave the table when we have a guest." Mom said.

"Your guest is very troublesome!" he said and went to his room, shutting the door behind him.

"I'm sorry about that Neji." Father apologized and Neji shook his head.

"I am a stranger to him. Don't worry, he'll come around."

The dinner was over and we went to the living room while my parents went to Shikamaru's room. Neji and I sat on the couch and remained silent.

"So, um Felis, would you mind if I asked you, if you have a boyfriend?" Neji asked.

"No." I simply answered.

"No, what?"

"No, I don't mind and no, I don't have a boyfriend. How about you?"

"Me? I don't have a girlfriend, but I have someone in mind…"

He kept leaning closer, our lips inches apart but then, Shikamaru came and ruined the moment!

"I want to talk to you about… something. Come to my room when this troublesome guy leaves." He hissed and left.

"I guess he doesn't like me, but I don't care. I only want you to like me."

"Don't worry about Shika. I don't know what's wrong with him."

"I think I should get going. It's late and uncle is waiting for me back at our house."

My parents came to say goodbye to Neji.

"Thank you very much Mister and Miss Nara. I had a great time and the dinner was unique, just like your daughter."

Neji took my hand and kissed the back side, like a gentleman. He waved at us and left.

My mother started squealing, saying that he is cute and that he is my first love. I signed, knowing that my first love is Shikamaru.

"I think you should date him." My father said, surprising me. Father's are supposed to be hard on their little girl's boyfriends.

"I don't think he likes me in that way." I simply told them.

They both looked at me like I was crazy and started laughing.

"Have you seen the way he was staring at you at dinner, daughter? He asked our permission to kiss you and brought us presents to make a good impression and gain our approval." Mom said.

"Well, that doesn't mean anything. I have to go and talk to Shikamaru."

I went to his room, leaving my parents alone…

Well, well. That was chapter 2. Wait for the next chapter to find out way Shikamaru was so cold towards his "troublesome" guest.

Stay tuned in and the new chapter will be up on Saturday or Monday if I am late!

Love you all and thanks for reading!
