Chapter 4: Presents and an unexpected guest
"What are you doing here?" growled Neji.
He smirked slightly. He looked rather charming and handsome as he surveying Tenten with those mysterious black eyes (entire eyeball is black). "You are ravishing as always Tenten!" he declared, effectively ignoring Neji's comment completely. He took off his extravagant cloak that forcefully broke the air and handed it to Neji as though he were a door man. Neji had the strong urge to let his cloak fall to the floor.
He paced over to Tenten. "I hope that you are not too upset with me on arriving on such short notice." chuckled the guest. He stopped and kneeled in front of the surprised girl and kissed her hand before pulling her face down so only she could hear what he said next. "I can't wait to see what you look like wearing my gift." He said. He lifted his right hand which held her package.
"Umm…arigato." thanked Tenten awkwardly, her 5'5' profile paled in comparison to his of 6'5', as he was almost the same height as she was while kneeling. "It truly wasn't necessary." she said as she held his hand and helped him stand up.
"Who are you?" asked a perplexed Kankuro. He was completely bewildered by what was happening, clearly surprised to see another man who was so familiar with his Tenten; he was beginning to feel slightly jealous.
Kiyoshi felt the very strong urge to roll his eyes. He didn't even turn to Kankuro to make his reply. "Next time I see your brother I will be sure to tell him to improve your manners. I thought that you of the Sand taught their people better than anywhere else within the shinobi nations to show the utmost respect to the Kages." he said smoothly and impassively. It was clear that the Raikage was too set on Tenten to really care about the other two guys in the room.
Kankuro winced. 'This guy is a Kage?'
Neji shook his head. He had had enough. "Tell us what you're doing here." he demanded.
"There is no need to repeat yourself Hyuuga. I heard you perfectly the first time." said Kiyoshi. He was starting to grow agitated with them. He again refused to answer Neji's question. He placed his free hand under Tenten's chin and rubbed her cheek with his thumb. "So beautiful." mumbled Kiyoshi, as he leaned into Tenten for a kiss.
She seemed to be in a trance since the moment he arrived and it broke right then. Tenten quickly turned her head to the side so he kissed her cheek. For a split second a dangerous look crossed Kiyoshi's face and Tenten seemed to fall into the trance again.
"My, my Tenten, modest as usual." said Kiyoshi admiringly, he placed his free arm around her waist and went into the party rooms. Before they left Tenten, with her eyes glazed over turned her head back and sent a pleading look to Neji and Kankuro for help.
"How does she know him?" Kankuro asked Neji after he heard the kitchen door close. His anger was rising at how this man was pressuring Tenten.
"Not that it's any of your business, but they met on a mission my team recently had." replied Neji. He was leaking out chakra from infuriation. It was even more than Kankuro had seen Sakura do the previous day. He knew that now was not the best time to mess with Neji.
"This guy is dangerous." continued Neji reluctantly. It looked as though he must surrender his pride to his rival and tell him all that he knew if they wanted to help his teammate. "He has already abused Tenten and has used a blockage jutsu. Even I, whose clan's has extreme knowledge of this jutsu style, had a very hard time trying to break his ninjutsu."
"He abused Tenten?" said Kankuro his eyes wide and determined.
Neji nodded.
"First my sister now this, I won't ever let that happen to Tenten." spat Kankuro in a menacing voice.
'Well at least that makes two of us.' thought Neji.
"We can't do anything at the moment; however I have a feeling that Kiyoshi will try something out at the dance. We need to keep her in our sights at all times." instructed Neji who was slightly surprised as Kankuro nodded in confirmation.
"Shall we." suggested Kankuro as he motioned to the next room. Neji led him into the next room. It wasn't pretty.
"CHUG! CHUG! CHUG CHUG!"
"Gulp! Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!"
"YEAH!!!" screamed Naruto in victory for just having chugged half a bottle of crown royal.
"WOHOO!!" cheered everyone.
"I'm next!" yelled Kiba enthusiastically.
"Yeah!" chanted the entire kitchen.
"Calm down there guys. You are going to get so hammered you won't be able to go to the club." scolded Sakura. She watched disapprovingly from her seat at the island, where she was eating shrimp with Neji, Hinata and Choji.
"Are you going to drink any Neji?" asked Sakura.
He shook his head.
"Well, why the hell not?" asked Sakura bluntly. "I know you want to get it on with Tenten and staying sober is no way to get anything done." Choji burst out in laughing fits while Hinata and Neji choked on their food, Sakura just stared at Neji with a triumphant smirk or her flushed face.
"I can tell that Sakura-chan is NOT sober, because it is normally me who says stuff like that!" declared Naruto as he sat beside Sakura, who giggled.
"Hinata? Do you want any crown royal??" asked Naruto as he held out the half empty bottle he had just chugged in an unsteady hand.
"Okay-y Naruto-o-kun-n, arigato-o." she stuttered as she took his bottle.
"I recommend that you don't have too much of that stuff Hinata-sama. Hyuuga's typically do have a low tolerance for alcohol." advised Neji. He refused to tear his attention away from Tenten and Kiyoshi who were cheering on a chugging Kiba.
"Hai nii-san-n." replied Hinata in understanding as she took a small sip.
"No, no!!" slurred Naruto as he got out of his seat and advanced on Hinata, offering his hand to help her out of the chair.
"Arigato-o Naruto-kun-n." she thanked.
"Now don't get her sick." warned Sakura protectively.
"Don't you trust me Sakura-chan?" pouted Naruto.
"No."
Naruto's face fell. "Sakura-chan…." mumbled Naruto disappointedly. He returned his attention to the red faced Hinata.
"Are you already drunk Hinata? Your face is REALLY red." said Naruto in concern, as he put his hand on her cheek.
"No I am fine!" chirped Hinata, who was hoping she would not faint like she did every time.
"Okay….now, look at Kiba, oh no it's not him anymore, Kiba drunk on the floor." said Naruto giggling as he pointed to a sprawled out Kiba on the floor. "Ino is the one who's chugging!" exclaimed Naruto, pointing too the 'heavy weight drinker.'
"Now look at what she's doing. She leaning back and letting that umm…Jack Daniels be chugged down her throat. Now that that is how you're supposed to do it." instructed Naruto. Hinata nodded in her head in understanding.
"Want to try it out?" asked Naruto.
"Hai-i, demo-o I want to only-y um…chug? a-a little-e though." replied Hinata fighting to keep her face from turning even redder than it already was.
"I'll hold the bottle for you and all you do is tilt your head back and let it flow, and if you want me to stop just raise your hand." said Naruto as he continued to instruct her on the chugging technique.
Hinata nodded in understanding, as Naruto took the bottle from her hand.
"Now lean back, I'll support you." he assured as he held her back. "Now Chug!" he ordered as he brought the bottle to her lips.
"Gulp! Gulp!"
"Wow look at Hinata go she's a machine!" yelled a drunken Kankuro. The entire group migrated to Hinata when Ino finished her Jack Daniels. She was hardly buzzed.
"Chug Hinata Chug! Chug Hinata Chug! Chug Hinata Chug!" they chanted.
"Yeah Hinata!" encouraged Naruto.
'Naruto is holding me; he's teaching me how to umm…chug! Everyone is cheering me on.' thought Hinata in bliss, as she finally raised her hand, and Naruto pulled back.
"That was amazing Hinata!" praised Naruto.
"Arigato…" thanked Hinata as she swayed.
"Hinata!" yelled Naruto as he caught the newly drunk girl. "Are you okay?"
"I think so…" answered Hinata in a daze.
"Hey Hinata your stutter is gone!" exclaimed Naruto.
"It is?" asked Hinata.
"Yea it's gone for sure." confirmed Naruto, as he pulled Hinata into a hug.
'Don't faint. Don't faint. Don't faint. Don't faint…..I didn't faint.' thought Hinata as Naruto pulled away from the hug, yet still held her from not falling.
"Let's open presents now!" yelled a very drunken Lee who surprisingly hadn't become violent after he stole some of Tenten's vodka.
"Yeah!!" yelled everyone in agreement.
"You must open mine first." whispered Kiyoshi in Tenten's ear, who nodded while beaming.
Neji glared at the daggers at the couple yet again.
"What could it be?" asked Tenten as she shook the package from Kiyoshi.
The entire living room was packed.
The Jumbo sofas were lines up in a semi-circle. From the left on the first jumbo sofa were Shino, Naruto and Hinata who was practically sitting on top of Naruto and then. The center sofa was Kiyoshi who was getting overly comfortable with Tenten, and a sprawled out Kankuro. The sofa to the far right was Temari, Shikamaru and Ino. Lee, Kiba, Choji and Sakura were getting comfortable on the floor.
Tenten looked at Kiyoshi skeptically and opened the box.
"Wow." Said Tenten, she was practically speechless.
"What is it??" asked Sakura
"Yeah show us!" yelled an excited Choji.
Tenten pulled it out with a red face. It was a dark purple very low cut halter top with black lining that definitely wouldn't reach the waist and some very form fitting extremely low rise caprice that left very little to the imagination.
"That's beautiful." said a jealous Ino, who glared at Shikamaru. 'Why doesn't he ever give me anything like that.' she thought.
"You're wearing that tonight hunn!" declared Sakura.
"My present next!" yelled an enthusiastic Kiba, as he tossed Tenten his present.
Tenten caught it unsteady hands. She was slightly mortified when the box started meowing. "I wonder what this is…" said Tenten sarcastically, making them laugh. She opened it to find a tinny pure white kitten that purred deeply.
"Wow Kiba and I thought you were into dogs." said Tenten lightheartedly making everyone laugh again.
"Can it see her?" asked Sakura.
"Hai."
"Next present! Next present!" yelled Naruto.
"This one is from Naruto and Lee." said Sakura as she handed Tenten her present.
It was in a small box, and wrapped in beautiful gold paper.
Tenten tore it open, and her jaw dropped.
"Guys this is beautiful!"
"I can't see it!" complained Kiba.
"It's a necklace, pendant." she said holding up the gold chain the green pendant was on.
"Look at it closely Tenten." said Naruto.
"There is a long green dragon gem inside of it." she looked at it curiously.
"That's not all though Tenten. The dragon is a jutsu scroll." continued Lee. "As long the pendant touches your skin you can instantly create a kunai, however it only works when your emotions are worked up and are in an extreme level of stress."
"Awww…thank you guys!" said Tenten as she put the chain around her neck.
"Next!" yelled Kiba.
"This is from Shikamaru." said Tenten.
"OOoOoO. From the looks of it it's a book." observed Tenten as she began to tear it open.
Tenten snorted at the irony. "How to deal with relationship stresses and love triangles."
The room burst out laughing except for Neji, Shino and Kiyoshi.
"Aren't you a smarty pants Shikamaru?" teased Ino as she pinched his cheek affectionately.
"How original." commented Temari nonchalantly, as she and Ino glared at each other.
"This one if from Shino." said Kiba.
"Hummm….I wonder…" she said as she opened the package.
"Shino you are so observant! You knew that some of my plants were dying because of bad bugs." said Tenten admiringly.
"Hai. I thought it would be the most practical gift." replied Shino.
"It is an assortment of bugs to help me keep my enormous garden healthy while I am away." She told everyone who nodded in understanding.
"Next one is from Ino." said Kiba tossing the next one.
"You'll love it Tenten!" announced Ino.
"I am sure that I will love it." agreed Tenten as she opened the present.
"Oh lord Ino! Now I have no excuse not to wear my hair down!!" complained Tenten jokingly.
"I am straightening your hair before we go out tonight!" yelled a happy Ino.
"Okay fine. It is really nice, thanks!"
"Next from Sakura."
"Okay arigato." thanked Tenten. 'At least he stopped whipping my presents at me.' She thought relieved, and began to open it.
"Wow….what are they??" asked Tenten.
Everyone laughed while Sakura's face fell. 'She really is a tomboy.'
"Their hair wraps!" explained Sakura
"Huh?" asked Tenten, she was lost.
"For your buns while you're training!"
"Ohhhh!!! Thanks Sakura."
Sakura sighed. 'Ino and I really have to girlify her.'
"This one if from Kankuro and Temari."
"You'll love it Tenten." whispered Kankuro into Tenten's ear, who nodded while smirking at the feeling of his skin as it brushed against hers. She opened it.
"Oh my god….you guys really shouldn't have." said Tenten as her eyes goggled over the extravagant dark kimono, with a golden dragon up to the side. There were high slits on both sides with a side color with gold stitching, and matching sandals.
"Gaara sends his best. He paid for most of it" said Temari.
All the girls began to go gaga over it.
"Tenten I thought you could wear it for the festival at the end of the month." offered Kankuro thoughtfully as he whispered in her ear again.
"Next!" shouted Kiba over everyone else. "This is from Choji."
"Hummm…." she mumbled in concentration as she opened it.
"I should have guessed! A 25$ gift certificate for the barbeque!" exclaimed Tenten, making everyone laugh again.
"Thank you Choji!"
"Next!! This is the last one, it's from Neji and Hinata."
This present was huge and didn't have any wrapping paper; instead it was in a large beige case with complicated golden engraving's of the Hyuuga clan everywhere.
'I wonder what this is…' thought Tenten as she got up and admired its craftsmanship.
She opened the case locks; she couldn't hold back an audible gasp. Inside were probably over 50 kunai's, johyous, maces, exploding tags etc, all were polished to perfection. It basically had anything she could possibly ever need. On top of that she could tell it was all hand crafted with her engravings in a beige colour and golden outlining.
"Neji, Hinata this is beautiful…" said Tenten, she was almost on the verge of tears.
"Who did you order this from? The craftsmanship is absolutely extraordinary." asked Tenten.
Neji bowed his head. He was slightly embarrassed for getting so much attention.
"Neji made all of it." said Hinata.
Tenten looked up to see Neji.
"You crafted all off this?" asked Tenten in awe.
Neji nodded in confirmation.
"Wow…" she mumbled in pure admiration as she examined the case again. Her eyes softened. 'He must have put a lot of effort into it…' she twirled on of the kunai's in her hand. "Thank you so much for making it Neji. It is so beautiful. It must have taken a lot of work. And thank you Hinata for having a part in this amazing gift." she showed her appreciation by flashing her smile to them yet again.
"Let's get ready for the club it is almost 5pm!!" announced Ino.
Tenten and Neji never broke their gaze for each other.
