Hyuuga Neji called into the apartment as he walked through the door. "Lee, I'm back!"

As Neji hung his coat instead of a loving embrace from his partner, a pair of arms twice the size of Lee's wrapped themselves around the Hyuuga's mid section.

"Neji-Kun! How I've missed my wonderful student!"

The brunette groaned as he recognized the obnoxious tone of his former teacher, Might Gai.

"Neji-san, you're back." Rock Lee walked in smiling. The Hyuuga could tell the two had been reminiscing. Gai released Neji, but the Hyuuga was quickly re-hugged by Lee. The younger black haired male grinned as he stated. "Gai-Sensei wanted to come over and see how we were."

"Perfect." Neji snapped as he pulled out of Lee's embrace. The two black haired males watched as the aggravated Hyuuga ran to the bedroom.

"Is something wrong?" Gai asked, turning to look at Lee. The younger male sent a concerned look at the door. "Neji-San has a lot going on right now."

"Tenten?" Lee flinched at the mention of the name. He gulped as he whispered. "Sakura-Chan, too."

"I got an invitation to Tenten's funeral. Not exactly the way I wanted to find out." Gai bore a sad look in his eyes. The three, Neji, Lee and Tenten, were inseparable during all grades of school. Tenten was the one who actually pushed Lee to ask the Hyuuga out.

The younger male remained silent.

Gai placed a hand on Rock Lee's shoulder and gave him a reassuring squeeze. "I'll see you two later."

Lee smile softly as his father figure waved and left the apartment.

"You were pretty rude to Gai-sensei, you know." Lee stormed into the bedroom to find the Hyuuga reading a worn out, old journal.

"Excuse me if I'm kinda in a bad mood."Neji spat as he closed the book, glaring at the taller male.

"Neji-San-" Lee returned the glare, sensing the anger from the Hyuuga, but he was cut off before he could continue. "You could have called me and told me he was here."

"Your cell phone in here and I called your office but they said you'd left." Lee growled as the heat of the argument filled the room. Neji moved over to the desk and set the journal down in silence as Lee continued.

"And do you have any idea what time it is?"

"Almost 10:30, and what of it?"

"What of it? Most people would find that suspicious!" Lee's voice rose like it always did when they fought. "Are you accusing me of something?"

Neji raised an eyebrow as he scoffed surprised. Lee just replied. "Should I be?"

Then silence…

The Hyuuga gulped and turned away from the black haired male. Not that he would ever admit it but Lee's last line stung pretty deep. But he was a Hyuuga, like hell was gonna cry over something like a petty fight.

"…N-Neji-san…" Lee could see the flicker in Neji's eyes. The brunette bit the inside of his cheek almost hard enough to draw blood. He hated himself as his throat closed up and his chest began to burn.

Damn it!

The Hyuuga cursed under his cracking breath. He voice was barely audible. He covered his mouth and completely turned his back to Lee.

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!

"Neji-san…" Lee's voice softened as he felt the guilt hit him like a truck. The black haired male hurried over to his teary eyed Hyuuga. Quickly wrapping his arms in comfort, Lee squeezed his eyes closed, loathing himself as he heard the soft sobs escape the Brunette.

"Damn you…" The Hyuuga shook as he grabbed Rock Lee's arm and hid his face in the taller man's arms.

"I didn't mean it, I swear…I swear." Lee hugged the Neji as the brunette tired to get a hold of himself. The Hyuuga gulped loudly and turned in the black haired man's arm.

"I'm sorry…" Lee whispered as watched Neji's eyes flicker. Two pairs of lips collided as the two tried to hold onto each other as if their lives depended on it. The taller male grabbed a fistful of caramel hair and shoved his tongue into the wet cavern. The Hyuuga shook softly as the kiss progressed, his arms tightening around the younger man's neck.

The separating of lips filled the room with pants. Bodies flew to the bed as the clothes were tore off and discarded. Brown hair was set free from its hair tie and bare bodies pressed against each other as much as physically possible.

Moans and quickening breath echoed in the room. The clashing of skin on skin seemed to become much louder than thunder. The brunette's wet eyes stained the sheets with salt water.

The argument was quickly forgotten as the two, fueled by an unknown frustration, pushed each other as hard as they could. The heart rates of both men sped and sweat poured from their skin. The moan progressed into screams and the two intertwined the bodies once again.
