I woke up in the morning with a very empty stomach. I don't know why, because I pigged out on ice-scream last night while watching some romance movie. Not that I'd tell anyone that, it would be too out of character. Hanabi-sama often finds it highly entertaining to tease me for that as well. She's a little devil.
I quickly changed and went to get some food finding Hinata-sama already in the room with some breakfast. She smiled and waved slightly so I waved back and greeted her. Hanabi-sama came in shortly and decided to point a certain fact out when I greeted her.
"You've changed!" she stated hands on her hips. I blinked slightly.
"How have I changed?"
"You never used to greet me, you've gone back to watching those movies, and you're spending less time training! You also haven't gone to find missions!" I can't help but let a slight blush seep onto my face; she eagerly pointed that out too. "See, emotions, you been acting different since last week! It's all because of Shikamaru, isn't it? You know dad doesn't like it when you date other boys!" I stand and growl, teeth showing through my lips.
"It's none of his, your, or anyone else's business what I do and don't do with my life! Who I date is up to me, and how I act is up to me! You got that, brat?" Hanabi-sama and stepped back, looking extremely shocked. She took another step back and bumped into someone, looking up. I look into cold white eyes and gasp, my hands flying to my mouth. The defined frown, the pierced and thin lips, the twitching muscle: Hiashi-sama.
"D-Dad!" I can see my ability to freely run around outside disappearing from view.
"H-Hiashi-sama, I-I'm so sorry, I…I didn't know w-what I was think-thinking!" I stuttered, doing a nice impression of Hinata-sama. The scowl deepened.
"Neji, I'm shocked; you normally have more control when it comes to your cousins…I'm going to have to re-think this whole 'Nara' situation if you keep this up," I could already feel the seal burning on my forehead. Hinata-sama stood, making everyone turn to her. I didn't move my gaze, as I knew she'd feel more comfortable with less people looking at her, and the last thing I need is her getting in trouble too…
"D-Daddy, N-Neji-niisan has b…been having an r-rough week, a-and Hanabi did p-provoke him! P-Please don't punish N-Neji-niisan…" I wince at the tension in the room. I look back to Hiashi-sama and notice the almost proud glint in his eye. I guess Hinata-sama's breaking through. I can't but feel a little pride too in my cousin; she's getting a lot stronger.
"Fine, but I don't expect it to happen again Neji. Go to practice, the three of you!" Hanabi-sama said something about not eating, and Hinata-sama smiled at me, causing me to smile back. We walk out the house together and head for the woods, Hanabi-sama just in front of us. It was weird to think, a good few years ago I would die to have shouted at Hanabi-sama…I hated the two so much, but now it was all different. They were like my little sisters, like they were before my dad died.
It wasn't long before Hanabi-sama ran off, saying her typical laidback 'later' and went to join her team. We walked a bit further before we reached my own training ground, only to find a big surprise.
"I-Ino? Shikamaru?" I said, utterly baffled. A light blush was spread across the Nara's cheeks, and he wasn't looking at me, arms crossed slightly. The girl was grinning broadly in that Ino way and waved.
"Neji, hello!" she greeted with Ten-ten right beside her. Neither of the teachers were here I guess, and I don't know what happened to Chouji…Lee however is a different story.
"NEJI, MY RIVAL! How are you this fine morning?" I twitched slightly at the loud voice beside me.
"Hello Lee…" I replied, my voice sounding like a whisper against his. Ino and Ten-ten ran up to us, greeting me. I turned to Shikamaru, who now had his hands in his pockets and was staring up at the sky. I snuck up behind him and put my own hands in his pockets, my head on his shoulder.
"Not still mad now are we, Shikamaru-dono?" I asked, getting him to blush again.
"Troublesome…" he muttered, leaning back and brushing his lips along my ear. "Not still horny now are we, Neji-kun?" I took my hands out of his pockets and wrapped them around his chest, letting my fingers from my left hand slowly walk down his body. He grabbed them and turned round, pulling back slightly.
"Maybe, why do you ask?" I smirk at his pissed off look. I see him side glance the other three. "Oh please, after making-out in front of Ino, you're worried about a little … fondling?" he thwacked me upside the head.
"Does Lee know?" I feel the colour from my face drain slightly. I forgot about him. I winced as I was tackled to the ground by my male team mate.
"Neji, it's so nice to see you finally braking out of your shell and into the spring time of young! Grasp this moment with your hands!" Shikamaru was sniggering at me. Some stupid unhelpful excuse for a boyfriend he is.
"Lee…get off me," he did so, standing and pulling me up before braking into full 'youthfulness' mode. We're soon graced with another loud, booming voice. Oh the woes of me.
"What is this I hear Lee? Neji has broken from his shell?" I didn't dare even touch Shikamaru, who obviously noticed this. The smaller boy wrapped his arms around me in a hug. I don't think I ever remember just having a hug.
"Neji, my boy! I never thought I'd see you so youthful! Let those locked up emotions spread through your body and be free! Use your youthfulness in your relationship!" I can see me turning into Kakashi or Sasuke, sitting around all day being badass while reading Icha Icha Paradise. Shikamaru has this winning smug look on his face.
"Girl…" I mutter. He lets go of me, growling slightly. Oh yeah, that wiped that god awful sexy look off your face. He storms over to Ino and drags her off.
"Come on Ino, let's go train," she yelps at the sudden tug and follows, saying her goodbyes.
"Neji, you really ought to try not getting him pissed sometimes…" Ten-ten advised.
"If he really loves me, he'll come back: no matter what."
Zzz
I'm now lying down with Chouji on the bench on top of the small building. The same place we've been coming to since I met him. We're doing as we normally do, sharing potato chips and watching clouds. I wonder if things are going to become different now I have Neji to think about spending time with too. Neji seems to be on my mind a lot.
"Hey…Chou…" I start, getting him to turn his head to me. I bring my hand to my temple. "I know this is weird…but we'll always stay as we are right? Even if we spend less time together?" he smiled slightly.
"It's not like you to be the one worrying about these things … and I have to say, my advice isn't as good as yours but," the chubby face turned back to the sky. "I'm sure they will stay the same, we're best friends, remember? Even if Neji's now in the picture…hey, maybe soon I'll have someone too, and then we won't have to worry about anyone being left out!"
"I know you'll find someone very soon…and I'm sure no one will be left out, that dumb Hyuuga can go play with his other friends if you need me, you come first!" Chouji laughed whole heartedly, no hollowness in his voice as always.
"I wonder about that! Ino says you've got some sort of contest going on or something?" I scrunched up my nose. Goodness she's a gossip.
"Yeah, something like that…I don't want to be classified as the girl," Chouji shook his head.
"Honestly, some men and their pride…" I snort and nod in agreement. We go back to watching clouds in silence, listening to the loud sounds from further in town. They may be quiet from here, but you can still hear them. I hear some people walking up the stairs, two by the sounds of it and I sit up to see the same couple who were here a while before.
"Look, it's that boy again…I think he comes here often!"
"Hush, he can hear you, you know…"
"I know, but he's not with that girl again, that boy must be his friend!" the man laughed at the woman's obliviousness. I smirk to myself and I hear Chouji chuckling too. "What's so funny?" she asked, I have a feeling I could answer this for her.
"Excuse me ma'am, but the 'girl' I was here with before was a boy," she flustered slightly.
"But you seemed so…close," the man took her elbow and steered her to where they stood before. I manage to catch what he said.
"You know those two gay ninja all the young adults are talking about?" he hints, she gasps and her face colours a bit more. She wasn't expecting that.
I lay back, putting my hands behind my head. Chouji decides to talk eventually. "How does it feel to be the talk of the town?" not much of the town, more among ninjas of our age, but…
"Weird…and not too good, seeing as I don't like the rumours," Chouji laughs again and I smirk like I always do. It's nice to just be here with Chouji sometimes. He looks at me with a teasing look, and I can almost see what's coming.
"So, how's it going between you two?"
"Ok I guess…minus the whole fighting thing…speaking of which, you weren't at training today," he raises an eyebrow but answers.
"Yeah, I was helping my dad with some things, but how does that relate to fighting?" I look up.
"Err…we kind of fought again today before training. You know, just a little spat type thing," I wasn't going to call it a lovers spat, just because it was Neji.
"You had another little lover's spat?" I nodded. "About…"
"He called me a girl."
"Ha, watch out Shikamaru, you're going to end up turning into your mother!" he said, laughing again. I frowned at the thought.
"I don't think so." I hear another person come up the steps, and from the sound of it, it's Neji. I feel Chouji sit up and sigh while sitting up as well. The Hyuuga boy is walking over uncertainly, probably not wanting to disturb my Chouji time. I have Chouji time, and Neji time now so that I can spend equal time with them both. Knowing these two, it'll never stay like that.
"Hey Neji, nice to see you!" my best friend greeted.
"Hey Chouji…is this a bad time to come steal Shikamaru-dono?" Chouji laughed and shook his head.
"No, of course not!" see, Chouji's too nice sometimes.
"Who said that I wasn't still mad at you, Hyuuga?" the male standing bend down and locked my eyes with his.
"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to come get some ramen with me, but if you're being such a girl about this whole thing, I can always ask Naruto, I'm sure he'll say yes," I frown and stand, making him straighten up to. Damn him and his psychology things. I turn to Chouji saying goodbye.
"See you, have fun guys!" he calls as I follow Neji down the stairs. I feel kind of guilty about leaving Chouji, though I'm sure he'll go find something else to do.
We don't take long to reach the ramen bar, finding it deserted for once. Naruto and Sasuke are normally there or out training, I'm guessing it's the latter right now though. They spar so much … Naruto does want to be Hokage still though. We sit, ordering some food and wait for the man to prepare the dishes, his daughter helping him. She giggles slightly at the simple sight of it, though I guess she'll know quite a few of the rumours about me and Neji.
The wait isn't long which is always good, and we're left to eat in peace, the girl calling for help out back. We sit in silence for the first part, though I can't help staring. The way he licks the food before putting his wet pink lips round the chopsticks, pulling them out and sucking up the string like food, letting it flick round his mouth as the last part gets eaten. The way he moans as the delicious food, rolling his eyes, letting his healthy pink tongue trace where any of the sauce is. The way he inserts the wooden chopsticks into his mouth, tongue darting round them, sucking and pulling them out, a trail of saliva connected the wood and his mouth. He luxurious, pink, soft moist lips that I haven't even touched in what seems like forever…
"What's wrong, Shikamaru-dono?" he asks and I realize I've leaned forward slightly. I quickly turn back to my own food.
"Nothing," I say hastily getting the twinkle of lust in his eye to brighten.
"Are you sure? You look…flustered," he says making the last word some out almost insinuation something that came to my head as something I'm sure it shouldn't, leaning over to check my forehead.
"I'm fine. Peachy!" his hand is cold compared to my brow and I almost tilt into touch.
"Oh? You won't mind this then, huh?" I feel the back of my head thumping and my cheeks burning as his hand rests on my upper thigh.
"W-What are you doing?!" I stutter,
"If I'm not wrong, you're acting like a girl," he said lips now next to my ear. I can't help but suppress a moan at all the dirty thoughts that are running through my head. I'm becoming more and more like Neji; I should spend less time with him. I let a noise escape through my nose as I feel a familiar wet feeling on my neck, licking and sucking. I shut my eyes in a mix of pleasure and pain as he bites down hard on the soft spot, emitting a few noises. He pauses and kisses at the area.
"You know, Shikamaru-dono…this would be a lot more fun if you would just be uke…" as tempting as it is, I must resist.
"Wha…no…just…" I can't find the right words at he goes back to attacking my neck. I feel his hands travel to my chair, spinning it to face him. The swift hands fell to my waist and I found myself following them to his lap as I felt my legs walking and my limbs crawling onto him in a straddling position. His hands were still on my hips, and my own started to move around his chest, feeling the well toned body under the material. Deciding it was too thick, I opened it up, letting my hands run across bare skin and slowly over strong arms, pushing the troublesome fabric further and further down so I could get more. I felt a tongue lap behind my ear and make its way round my chin. I felt it come up, about to enter my opened mouth…
"Argh! My virgin eyes!" my own eyes snapped open and I pushed myself off the chair on instinct, letting my butt connect with the floor. I flinch and turn to see Sasuke and Naruto at the entrance, Naruto burying his head in Sasuke's black jumper. I stand and scurry back into my seat, smoothing out my shirt and looking to the entrance to the back room to find the old man there, looking nervous.
"I…I hate to break things up, but please…can you keep it down to a minimum?" he asked. I thought my head was about to explode with embarrassment. I nodded and avoided any eye contact, flattening any loose hairs. I stole a quick glance at Neji, who was doing up the top button to his top and re-tying his ponytail. He mumbled a sorry and also kept his head down. He was gone in an instant. Sasuke was patting Naruto on the back from the shock, sighing.
"Calm down Naruto, they're not doing anything anymore…" he comforted, though it didn't make me feel any better. I rubbed my face to try get rid of the heat, because boy was I feeling hot! Once Naruto and Sasuke were sat next to us, the lady came back out and took their orders, blushing slightly when she looked at us. Naruto turned to me and my boyfriend, scowling.
"What were you thinking? Making such a noise in a ramen bar? People pass by here you know! It's on the corner!" I let my head fall onto the table.
"Crap," I say, hiding my face best I can. People passing by…erotic sounds coming from the ramen bar…let's hope they didn't know who it was or I'm dead meat: I'd never hear the end of it!
"Sorry Naruto…" Neji muttered, his voice staying low. He was eating his food, keeping his head down. I picked up my own chopsticks and started to finish my hardly touched meal. I bet Chouji didn't mean this kind of fun when we set off to come here. Naruto quickly started eating when he got his food, while Sasuke ate at a slower pace. Both of them ate a lot though.
By the time we had finished, Neji and I eating slowly in utter humiliation, the two had already run up quite a bill, Naruto more so than Sasuke.
"I can't believe you, dobe. Why do you seem to eat more when I'm paying?" Naruto grinned, leaning on Sasuke's shoulder.
"Aw, come on now Sasuke-teme, treat your date nicely!" I simper at the couple. "Anyway, when I pay you eat more too!"
"True, true…" he said, getting out his wallet. I turn to Neji and look him in the eye innocently. He rolls his own white orbs and fishes out some money, handing it to the lady behind the counter. She smiles and thanks us, taking Sasuke's money and doing the same. The four of us walk out, Naruto draping his arm around Sasuke's. Sasuke whispers something into the blonds' ear, which gets Naruto to blink. The taller of the too shakes his head at the blank face and kisses the tanned forehead. They're so cute sometimes…
"We're off then, see you!" Naruto says, waving and pulling Sasuke down the road. I turn to Neji expectantly.
"I have to be going; Lee wanted me to spar with him…he said he wanted to try beat me again," he was about to take of before I grabbed his wrist to stop him. He looked at me questioningly and I couldn't help but blush. I pulled him into me, wrapping my arms round him.
"Hope you win…" I whispered and quickly let go of him and transported myself to a near by roof. It took him a moment or two to actually move, but he had a slight skip in his step. I couldn't help but let a grin grace my features.
I'm going to be sad when one of us has to go away on a mission…
Zzz

"I am so glad we came out here!"
"Ha, I thought you might be! Just look at the way he moves…"
"He looks so damn fuckable."
"Don't get too excited…"
