Tenten

Yesterday was literally the worst day of her life.

But that was yesterday.

Today was today and she was determined to have a better day.

At least she didn't have to worry about bumping into Neji, today was her day off. So she didn't even bother changing out of her flannel panda pajamas and tank. She glanced at herself in the mirror. The puffiness of her face had gone away, and her eyes had went from bloodshot to a nice white, also her usually unruly hair seemed to have more bounce and shine in it today. Overall she thought she looked pretty good, so good that she didn't even need to put her hair up.

Tenten took the steps two at a time and entered the kitchen cheerfully.

"Good morning mom, dad, what's for break…fast…."

She stopped prancing when she felt a third presence in the kitchen. She spun around to see Neji sitting in a chair next to her dad, looking quite uncomfortable.

Any thoughts of her looking good this morning disintegrated, leaving just self-consciousness. Tenten remembered she forgot to brush her teeth, or wash her face.

She also remembered that she was still in her pajamas, with PANDAS on them!

After the wave of self-bashing passed she immediately ran back upstairs to primp.

Oh my hair! She fussed as she hurriedly put them up in buns. Tenten took a step back.

NO! The left one is crooked! So she took them out and did it all over again. Satisfied, she moved onto clothes.

Should I go with what I usually wear? Or dress up a little bit? No, I'll go with what I usually wear, I don't want him to think that I'm doing this for him. Even though I am. So she threw on her usual and went into the bathroom.

After about 10 minutes of vigorous washing and brushing she was ready to go downstairs and face Neji.

Ok Tenten, don't panic. You look great, you feel great, and you're not going to let any weird thoughts get in the way. No go downstairs and act natural. She mentally told herself. Tenten felt a little better after her pep talk but she was still nauseous. At least there wasn't any food in her stomach to throw up.

She made her way quietly down the steps and pushed through the kitchen door. But to her annoyance Neji wasn't there anymore!

"Oh Tenten, a friend was here to see you." Said her mom looking up from the dishes.

"A friend, that's a BOY." Her father stressed.

"He said he'll come back later, when you were awake." Her mom interjected, she also threw a stern look in her dad's direction.

Tenten stood in the doorway, not believing what she was hearing. They SAW and HEARD her come in, didn't they? Didn't Neji see her in her PANDA P.J.'S? She sat down in a chair adjacent her dad, a glimmer of hope was growing in her chest. He didn't see her at her worst! He didn't see her in her pajamas! He missed the whole thing. Tenten was so relieved. Words couldn't even explain it.

Neji

I'm glad that's over. For now, at least.

This morning when he had come over, he was ready to spill it all to Tenten. Neji figured it was better now than later, so he wouldn't have enough time to second guess himself. But when he knocked on her door, I wasn't answered by Tenten , it was answered by a much older lady, the dowdy type. She was quite kind and invited him in for breakfast. He figured 'What the hell, it can't hurt' but he was wrong.

Tenten's father was, hem, protective of his daughter. And immediately upon entering he was interrogated.

"So , who are you?"he asked setting down the paper.

"Neji Hyuga, sir." He replied.

"And what do you want with Tenten?"

"Well, sir, I'm on her team and—

"I didn't ask if you were on her team, I asked what the hell you wanted. I mean to come in and intrude at seven o' clock in the morning! She isn't even up yet." He said, already growing irritated.

"I have to tell her something important." Neji said.

"What is it? I'll be sure to tell her when she wakes up." He said, a cocky half smile upon his face.

"I'm sorry," replied Neji, meeting his gaze, "this information is top secret and I was given orders to convey it to Tenten and only Tenten."

"I'm her father, I have a right to know. Who gave you these "orders"?" he said using his two fingers as quotation marks.

"The Hokage, herself." Neji said, a smirk upon his face. He was enjoying this little charade.

"Well—

"That's enough talking," interjected Tenten's mother, "Now Neji," she said looking at him, "why don't you come back later, y'know whenever Tenten wakes up."

A small 'eep' came from behind the other side of the kitchen.

Neji looked over just in time to see a woosh of brown hair and pandas?

That couldn't have been Tenten could it?

"Well, thank you for your time. I'll come back later." Said Neji giving a slight bow then leaving.

Ok, now to see what Tenten is really up to. I know she isn't sleeping anymore. He ducked behind a neighboring building and activated his Byakugans. All though he knew this was morally wrong in every way, he couldn't help it.

Ok, Tenten, let's see what your doing.

He scoured the building, for Tenten lived in an apartment complex, and he had to go through a couple of people, and a couple of things he didn't need to see, to find her.

I see you're washing your face.

A thought crossed the threshold of his mind,

I wonder what kind of soap she uses?

He tried to make out the label but it was too faded to read. Then he noticed her ass, not that he didn't already know it looked good, but what really caught his attention was the fact that is was covered in a pattern of pandas.

So I was correct earlier, those are pandas.

He examined a little closer.

A dancing panda, a fishing panda, a hopping panda, a smiling panda, a sad panda, a ninja panda, and then it repeated.

A small chuckle escaped his throat.

He was aghast with himself.

How can I laugh at her?

But then again, this was so….. not Tenten.

It was, literally, very childish.

And they're so short!

Which he had to admit he did like it that way. It showed off her nice ass.

But soon another bout of laughter followed.

He wasn't really laughing at her, he was laughing at how incredibly cute and vulnerable she was when she was in the safety of her own home.

He never even knew this side of Tenten existed.

He looked back at her.

Uh-oh. Looks like she's starting to change.

The little flame sprung up inside him again, followed by a blush. Neji immediately deactivated his Byakugans.

A/N: Aww, see? Neji isn't the perv fandom has made him out to be! Review it please.
