Yes, this is a ShinoTen fic. Idk why but this pairing is verry awesome to me! lol Hope u enjoy!


TenTen leaned against her locker, impatiently looking at her watch every five seconds, waiting on her partner that was assigned to her for her latest project. Where in the world is this guy?

"Excuse me..." A suave voice called behind her. TenTen turned around and saw Shino, the mysterious librarian. There had been rumors that he was gay, abusive, loved the world of bugs, and lived alone. Of course, Shino ignored all the rumors, and so did TenTen. She never believed anyone about something they said about another person unless it came from the real source.

"Hey Shino, what's up?" TenTen asked.

He sighed in annoyance, making TenTen look at him with confusion. "Is there something wrong?"

"Yes. Kiba, my very annoying friend, decided to show up late to work. Why? Because he's always been like this and I don't think he'll ever change. But I am asking you if you can assist me with his job so Tsunade-sama can stop breathing down my neck?" TenTen gased silently as Shino's glasses shifted slightly as he talked, revealing part of his light honey eyes. They were so...beautiful, but not in the cheesy way. Shino's eyes were straight legit, the most beautiful colored eyes you could ever lay eyes on. The mysterious librarian noticed TenTen staring, and fixed his glasses, much to her disappointment.

TenTen scowled in anger that Shino fixed his glasses but answered his question anyway. "Sure. Besides, my lab partner is late."

Shino nodded. "Thank you."

TenTen smiled and followed Shino into the backroom where all of the books were kept, along with a lounge for the employees. TenTen looked around in silent shock and awe. Ok, why in the hell isn't there a lounge for the teachers in the dojo? I'm complaining to Gai-sensei... TenTen came back to her senses when Shino stopped in front of her.

"Here are the carts. If you need anything I'm at the desk." Shino said. TenTen nodded and waved off Shino and he began to walk off. A second later, she heard a small thump on the groud. TenTen looked down and saw that a small book had dropped from Shino's coat pocket. She picked it up and ran out of the backroom.

"Shino! Your book!" She called. TenTen kept running and couldn't stop even when Shino turned around, facing her. TenTen's body collided with Shino's and they both hit the ground hard. Unfortunately, they didn't end up in the most appropriate of positions. TenTen was hovering over Shino, while his hands were on TenTen's waist that he placed there trying to stop the fall from happening. TenTen's buns had fallen out, revealing her long chocolate brown hair that was now tickling Shino's face. The honey eyed librarian couldn't help but see how beautiful this girl was. TenTen focused on the fact that she knocked off Shino's glasses and gazed into those honey glazed eyes. A few moments of taking in each other's beauty, TenTen came to her senses and stood up. She held out a hand to Shino who took it and helped himself up.

TenTen scratched the back of her head. "Sorry 'bout that. But here's your book. I got a glance at the cover, you really are interested in bugs?"

Shino nodded. "Thank you." He reached for the book and in doing so, his fingers grazed TenTen's. Never in his life, had Shino touched a hand that was so rough yet gentle. He figured it was from her training in the dojo with Gai-sensei. But what he didn't know was that TenTen felt the same way, her skin ignited when Shino's fingers touched hers even if it was just for a minute.

"Well, I'll put these books away so I can get outta your hair. I'll see you in school tomorrow ok?" TenTen waved before going to back to the carts but was stopped by a certain honey eyed boy gripping her arm. He leaned in from behind until his mouth was a hair away from her ear.

"Wait for me at the employee lounge when you're done. Why? Because I need to talk to you." Shino's deep voice soothed its way into TenTen's ear. She was thankful that Shino wasn't looking at her face so he could see her blush. She shook off the nervousness and snatched her hand way and turned around to face Shino.

"Fine. But watch how close you get, buddy!" She said sternly.

Shino nodded. "My apologies."

"Good!" TenTen stormed off back to the backroom to finish up putting away the books. Shino smirked slightly at the girl's attitude and chuckled softly as he walked up to the desk to help a customer.

A few hours later

TenTen cranked up the volume as she lay on the black leather couch in the employee lounge. I seriously want Gai-sensei to put one of these in the dojo. Hell, I'll start a fundraiser myself if I have to!

She snapped out of her thoughts when she saw Shino step in.

"So Shino, you wanted to talk to me about something?" TenTen said, still fumbling around with her iPod. Shino was silent and simply walked over to TenTen and gripped her arm, forcing her to stand up on her feet.

"Shino! What the hell is wrong with y-!" TenTen couldn't finish her outburst due to Shino's lips crashing onto hers. It was the type of kiss that was rough and kinda clumsy due to impulsive thinking. But soon both TenTen and Shino settled into the kiss. Shino pried his arms away from TenTen's grip and took out her buns, forcing her chocolate locks to fall. He took this chance to run his fingers through her beautiful hair. TenTen smirked into the kiss. Two can play at that game...She snatched off Shino's glass and tossed them onto the couch and pulled away so she look into his eyes.

"Your eyes are beautiful, Shino. Why are you hiding them?"

Shino shrugged. "Because I only allow people who are worthy to see. Your hair is breathtaking, why do you hide it?"

TenTen looked away and blushed slightly. "It's too much to handle."

Shino put his index finger right below TenTen's chin and forced her to look at him. "It's still beautiful."

"Why are you doing this, Shino?"

"Why? Because you're strong-minded, the toughest girl I know, but no one knows of this considerate side that you have. I want to be the one that you show it to, and no one else."

TenTen smiled and cupped Shino's cheek with her hand. "Let's make a deal. You don't show any other female your eyes, and I'll show you the girl I can be just for you. Deal?"

"Yes. But just saying deal will not put any realness into this agreement."

TenTen laughed. "Then you seal the deal with a kiss."

Shino smiled slightly. He leaned in and gently placed his lips on hers, wrapping his arms aroud her waist and pulling her closer. TenTen wrapped one leg around his waist hoping Shino would hold it for her, needless to say he did just that. Shino gasped quietly as TenTen bit his lower lip, allowing her to slide her tongue to mingle with his. He tastes like coffee...damn! It tastes so good! She locked her fingers into Shino's hair and pulled him closer. The honey eyed teenager couldn't take this much passion at the workplace and pulled away. This made TenTen pout involuntarily. Shino took TenTen's hands in his and they sat down on the leather couch.

"I don't want you to start something you can't finish." He stated.

TenTen nodded, understanding that if they continued it was definitely gonna end...well ya know. "Ok. I understand." Even though she agreed, TenTen felt a tinge of disappointment in her heart. Shino saw this and cupped her face.

"I want to. Just not here, ok?"

TenTen smiled. "Ok."

"Tomorrow, be ready at 6:00."

"Why?"

"Because it's a boyfriend's job to take out his girlfriend."

TenTen blushed slightly at the b and g word. "..."

"Do you not want to be my girlfriend?" Shino asked.

"Yes, I do. I just didn't know that you'd look for a girl like me."

Shino tilted his head in confusion. "Why would you think that?"

"You dated Ino last year. Ino is the complete opposite of me. I'm nothing like her."

Shino kissed TenTen deeply. "That's exactly why I fell for you."

He gazed deeply into TenTen's eyes and kissed her forehead. "Promise me something."

"What?" TenTen asked.

"This is selfish, but don't show any other guy your hair but me."

The chocolate haired girl smiled and kiss Shino's neck. "No one else is worthy but you."


Hope u enjoyed! lol
