100 NejiTen Oneshots Collection
A/N: Hi guys! Well, I'm finally brought back to life from the dead and coming up with another story for you guys. This one was a little hard to write, considering that I don't like Sasuke very much, but I tried my best and I shall feed you with another oneshot!
Note: This fic doesn't follow canon, but just imagine that Sasuke's in Konoha and is 15.
EXCHANGE
It was a fairly quiet day, and Sasuke didn't like quiet very much.
Sure, he enjoyed peace, he enjoyed stability, and he enjoys all things neat.
But today was abnormally quiet, and he sat there, sipping his tea, wondering why.
Ah, he remembered. She's not here yet.
Now Sasuke was not a very good morning person. When somebody arranges a meeting of some sort, he expects them to be there with him on time.
Now, what was taking her so long?
"I'm sorry, shall I take your order?" a voice said, and he immediately looked up to meet eyes with a waitress.
"Hn, no, she'll be here..." he mutters, and the waiter smiles and bows and says something about young love.
Now Sasuke was pretty sure he didn't like Tenten. And he did not in fact, have anything to do with angry Hyugas. And this kunoichi that he was waiting for was sure that she didn't have any romantic interest in Sasuke anyway, besides calling him cute, but that was a whole different matter.
Ah, blast the Hyuga. He was having other plans.
Then he looked up again when the door chimes rang and a girl with twin buns in her hair entered the shop, rugged and sweaty.
"Finally," he call, and she rushes down to sit beside him.
"Yeah, yeah, stupid training," she murmurs, then he immediately takes her baggage and puts it beside him.
"Busy with Hyuga?" he asks, then she giggles a little while shaking her head.
"Hardly. He's usually training with his uncle now" she replies, quite sadly.
"Hn," he mutters, and crosses his arms. They both wait in silence for their order.
"Haaah," Tenten laughs, and Sasuke is caught dumbstruck in his loss of words. "What?"
"You're so much like him, you know," she says, and pulls back a stray hair behind her ears.
Wait, what? Like Hyuga? There was no way he can be compared to that...long-haired...freaky...Hyuga!
"Whenever you talk..." she says, and now she is playing with a straw cover. "You always talk in one syllable words. Now that explains why nobody wants to talk to you..." she laughs, and accidentally breaks the straw in half.
"Hn," he mutters. So what? Its not like only the two of them talk in one-syllable words, right?
"And you both have an army of angry fangirls," she giggles. Hn, that was true, and it was part of the whole point why he invited her in the first place. To shield the fangirls off.
The waitress comes in with their usual, two sticks of dango and two rice balls, with tomatoes in the side.
"In the side," he says, and the waitress moves the vegetables in the side of the plate.
They both get a stick each and start munching, but sadly for Sasuke, it didn't stop her from talking.
"How are they?" he asks, referring to the fangirls.
He knows for a fact that these women can be very dangerous creatures, and Tenten was one of the victims for spending so much time with their Neji-kun! and probably gets harassed, which he knows they do.
"Easy to deal," she says, and he sighs a little in relief. "But can be pretty mean sometimes, like one of them said I looked too much like a boy," she smiles.
"Hn," he mutters. Now that was not true. Tenten, he thinks, is the type of person that can look prettier every time you look at her, which was something Hyuga was very prone to doing. Like Sakura.
Get your mind out of the gutter! his brain says, and suddenly he's back to talking to her again.(1)
"And you're always sad and lonely and don't like talking to people," she comments, and he scoffs in return. Now that was true.
"And both probably asexual"
Pfffft. He covers his mouth before spitting out the now chewed dango, and stares confusingly at the girl. "What?"
"Yeah," she giggles. Now this girl, he thinks, is having doubts.
"I for one, am not asexual!" he exlaims, and Tenten is holding her sides and laughing.
"I know, I know, it's just that Sakura never got the message. You should stop being so emo," she says, and he waves it off.
"I don't like Sakura"
"You're in denial, my friend"
He looks at her with plain confusion in his face, and realizes, wait, maybe she's right.
I mean, he does agree that he likes some stuff, like his toy dinosaur and tomatoes, and because they're both fun to play with and to eat.
Just like Sakura.
"Shit!" he exclaims, and Tenten is startled when he accidentally flips his plate and the stick rolls on the table.
"Hmmmm," Tenten mutters, and ignores what happened. She picks up the rice ball and starts munching on it, casually taking sips of her tea as well, and moves on to their weekly conversation about weapons.
Hn, weapons, pretty interesting?
He found himself in lost in her words and dazed off. Now why did he bother talking to this girl, anyway?
Well, she could be the only one who can talk about weapons and not get bored talking about it, he'd give him that.
And secondly, she can talk to him without completely swooning over him like all those other girls. She might be the only one.
But why? I mean, he's good looking, he's smart, he's strong, and all the girls like him.
But why not this one?
He looks at her smile and her twinkling eyes as she explains that the windmill shuriken she saw in the store the other day was completely fascinating, and shrugged it off and went back to thinking.
Ahhhh, he smiles. It's him.
And when she goes back to talking she sees the lips that Hyuga has yet to claim, the hands that would dig into Hyuga's hair, and the eyes reserved for Hyuga and Hyuga only.
And he wonders why Hyuga hasn't made a move yet, to this exceptional top-notch kunoichi who doesn't know that she is in fact head-over-heels in love with him, and pities the girl.
And she made it pretty clear that she likes Hyuga, something he could be pretty proud of, because he and Hyuga were quite the same, and both have problems with a certain kunoichi in their team.
"Tch," he mutters, and goes back to smiling.
"Sasuke," she says, and he snaps out of his thinking bubble and faces her. "What?"
"It was really cool when you threw it, considering it's extremely heavy and you're probably too light to carry it anyway," she says, referencing to his fuuma shuriken.
"Hn," he mutters, and goes back to thinking about Hyuga and Tenten and how tasty Sakura is.
"Tenten," he hears, and they both turn around to see who had the cool, monotone voice who said that.
And no, it wasn't him.
He watches as she sets back her rice ball wrapper and stands up to greet the Hyuga.
"Neji!" she exclaims, and now she's in front of him. "Where have you been?" she says, and he sees Hyuga smile, a tiny minuscule smile that he knows is reserved for only their beloved.
He says something he cannot tell what, and sees her nod in approval.
He smiles.
"Uchiha," Neji mutters. It's that glare he gives when he sees he and Tenten together, and he knows that it's the glare that claims Tenten for him and him only.
He bows as well, while he watches them walk away with a happy Tenten by his side.
He makes a mental note that Hyugas can be very dense.
And Hyugas and Uchihas alike can be very possessive, or so it seems.
"And Neji?" he calls, and his head turns around.
"When will you make your move?" he asks, and smiles when he sees Hyuga's cheeks flare, something he knows only Tenten can do, and immediately rushes out of the shop.
And he is so caught up in his staring when he hears the bells from the medical core chiming, which signals that the twelve-o'-clock shift was over.
Well, he and Hyuga are much alike after all.
They both have their own kunoichi to claim.
(1) Sasuke is denial is one of my favorite things to watch...lol :3 And yes, I ship SasuSaku, because I think it's cute!
A/N: Whew! Another Oneshot! I hope y'all enjoyed that!
This is what I was talking about in my other oneshot (see: Chapter 11-Possessive Bastard) and I thought it was pretty cute, because I think Tenten and Sasuke are compatible.
In a platonic sort of way.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this, I woke up really early to make this and I finally did, have a great monday!
Until then!
PS. Please review, I wanna know what this story does to you Sasusaku peeps...
