Disclaimer - I do not own Naruto.
"Oh Neji, isn't the snow beautiful?" Tenten asked, spreading her arms out to her side like a bird and ran deeper into the field.
"I suppose." I said, trying to keep warm. Unlike Tenten, I wasn't enjoying the snow and hated how cold it was.
"Thank you for taking me here. Never would I think of you taking me to the mountains." She said with a smile and then began to twirl around in the snow several times, her arms still spread and her pink tongue was out from her mouth, catching the falling flakes. "I mean, you never like to do anything well...fun. You should have your own world where all you do is have fun and do things you enjoy!" She fell onto her back and began to move her arms and legs up and down and side to side, creating what she called a 'Snow Angel'.
"You're welcome..." was all I said.
As Tenten continued to make snow angels, and play in the white powder, I stood there. Hands in my pockets, myself dressed in warm clothing to avoid becoming ill. What good was a sick Shinobi? She continued to laugh and giggle with joy as the snow still fell, her cheeks becoming a shade of hot pink and her buns were falling out and becoming wet from the melted snow.
"Why don't you come and make a snow fort with me, Neji?"
"No."
"Why not?" She pouted.
"It's childish..."
Tenten rolled her eyes. "But it'll help you when and if you ever have a mission in the Snow village, what if you need to create a shelter...or..." she bit her lip, trying to think of ideas, "...or what if you were in a place full of snow and you needed somewhere to hide? Oh that would fall into shelter, wouldn't?"
I sighed. "I'll help, but that's all."
She smiled and began to build up the snow around her body. And unwillingly, I to began to gather the snow around my own body, combining it with her own pile.
Our snow fort was simple. Tenten and I barely were able to fit in it and we cramped close together, our body heat spreading to the other.
"At least the roof is tall enough that we don't have to crouch down." She said in a positive voice. "Have you ever made a snow fort before?"
"No."
"I didn't think so." She then began to twirl a large bunch of hair that had come out of it's bun. "Um, Neji?"
"What is it?"
Tenten pursed her lips together and began to twirl the large piece of hair faster. "I know you hate things like this, but I really want to thank you for taking me to the mountains and actually doing something with me..."
"You're—"
She pressed a finger to my lips. "You know, I wasn't done thanking you." Tenten smiled and battered her long eyelashes at me. Slowly, she cupped my cheek and leaned into my face, pressing her cold lips upon my own. For a moment I felt like I was on fire, the heat of her kiss overwhelmed my body and as she pulled away from my lips the warmth was instantly gone.
"Now I'm finished thanking you."
I gave her a weak smile, admiring this moment and her beauty. She looked so gorgeous in this form of messy hair, bright pink cheeks, and seductive brown eyes. "You're welcome..."
She blushed and looked away from me. This snow fort, it was not only my own world, but our own world a place, like she said, where I did things I enjoyed and had fun.
Author's notes - When I was a little girl, I used to make snow forts with my family and friends, nothing like this ever happened in them, lol. It's been so long since I've seen real snow...and since the Holidays are coming up I decided to post one that has snow in it...not the best fanfiction in the world but meh, I try and I guess that's all that matters.
Thank you for reading.
