I know last chapter was quite different to my usual style, I wanted to try my hand at some romance and angst. Something with a dark bitter flavour P (Bad bad chocolate pun I know) This chapter is quite silly though, if you don't like it, blame it on the fact that I am braindead from all the cramming for exams. In fact I should get back to studying...

Thank you to all my lovely reviewers: mwth06, WeaponsMistress, Maki-Zushi and especially to Chibi Kitty who's been an absolute champ reviewng all my stories. Hope you like this chapter

Disclaimer: I do not own Team Gai, I wish I did though

Neji would never admit it to anyone, most of all to Lee, but sometimes he just envied his annoying self-proclaimed rival for being able to be so touchy-feely. Growing up in a stifled, formal environment in the Hyuuga compound, no one ever, EVER, displayed public signs of affection. Yet here was his idiot sensei and his young clone embracing with tears running down their faces over some 'epiphany' they had just youthfully discovered, which just so happened to be that the delicate flower of their team had finally blossomed.

Tenten glared at them with her arms crossed over her chest. Couldn't she even have her hair cut without having this kind of extreme reaction from the two green spandex clad ninjas on her team? It wasn't even a drastic haircut, it was more like a trim since her hair had been getting too long and she had started getting split ends to her own horror. She tapped her foot impatiently, waiting for the crazier members of her team to finally calm down. But the waterworks, sunsets and even squirrels and rainbows kept coming. Turning around to the other sane member of her team she raised a disbelieving eyebrow, knowing that he was probably rolling his eyes at this very moment.

Instead, he was staring at Gai and Lee with a look that looked suspiciously like longing on his face. The Hyuuga prodigy then turned to her and opened his arms expectantly.

Tenten stared at him incredulously for a long while. Neji continued holding his arms out to her, as if expecting her to run into her arms so they could turn on the waterworks and run off into the sunset together springtime-of-youth style. Horror was working its way slowly through her mind, which was struggling to comprehend that she had perhaps lost her one and only sane ally on this team.

"Get. Real." she finally said, before spinning on her heel and leaving behind her sparring partner who had finally been corrupted by the madness of youth.

Neji sighed and lowered his arms, it was worth a shot. He still wanted a hug but getting one from Lee and Gai would mean that he would probably have to start wearing the green spandex abomination, orange leg-warmers and get a shiny bowl haircut. Feeling rather left out, he decided to return home to meditate. Maybe he could see if he could get a hug from Hiashi...

A/N: Awwww Neji rejection! The Naruto Shippuden episode 33 kinda inspired this, where Neji made a comment about how ridiculous Gai and Lee's race to reach the village was and then Tenten pointed out that he was getting quite into the race as well... Anyhow, feel free to give me ideas I will definitely credit you and dedicate it to you
