A/N: Here we go. I like writing about situations like these. Enjoy.

Mystery date

Neji paced in front of the lockers, an ugly expression on his face. Naruto and Shikamaru leaned against the lockers, Naruto with a curious look and Shikamaru with a bored one.

"I can't believe this. I just can't." The long-haired boy seethed. In this state, only his close friends could stand near him and not get maimed right on the spot.

"What's the big deal?" Naruto asked.

"The big deal is that she didn't tell me! She waited a month to tell me!" Neji shouted at the blond.

"Everyone knew but you." Shikamaru yawned. "And I thought Naruto was supposed to be the dense one."

"I'm standing right here." Naruto glared at the lazy teen.

"I know."

"She's been dating this guy for a whole month and I didn't know about it." Neji muttered to himself. "I'm like a brother to her…why wouldn't she tell me?"

"Maybe because you're being a bit overprotec-" Naruto paused when Neji glared at him.

"Choose your next words VERY carefully, Uzumaki." Neji said darkly.

"W-What I mean is, why should it be any of your business who Hinata dates?" Naruto said. "What if this guy makes her happy?"

"I'll be the judge of that." Neji growled. "After I break every bone in his body for even trying to get close to my cousin. She hasn't told her father either."

"Hiashi? I think I know why." Naruto chuckled.

"I feel sorry for Hinata, having to put up with this." Shikamaru sighed.

"Shut up! You don't know anything!" Neji shouted.

"Maybe you'll like the guy she's dating." Naruto smiled. "Hinata's a smart girl. I'm sure she chose a nice guy. Actually, she just so happens to be dating-"

"I swear, when I find the guy who dared flirt with my cousin, he'll have hell to pay!" Neji declared, interrupting Naruto. He grinned manically. "She's having another date with him tonight. I'll be sure to catch him when he comes to pick her up."

"Right…well, I've gotta go now." Naruto smiled sheepishly. "Catch up with you guys later, yeah?"

"Sure." Shikamaru waved him off.

"Castration!" Neji smiled sadistically. Naruto stared at Neji in shock while Shikamaru stared at him like he had two heads. He only got this way when it was about Hinata.

Then again, they were lucky Hiashi didn't know. He'd be even worse.

X.X.X

"You look awfully nice." Neji said bitterly, looking over Hinata's outfit. He gripped the can of soda in his hands tightly.

"T-Thank you, Neji." Hinata smiled, making a quick spin to show herself off a bit more. Neji wrinkled his nose as her attire showed a bit too much for him to deem as proper. "You don't think it's too much?"

"Oh no! It's suits you perfectly. I'm sure he'll love it." Neji replied sarcastically.

"…Don't be like that." Hinata sighed. "I said I was sorry for not telling you. I thought you would scare him away, like you did with all the boys that even glanced at me."

"Glanced? Ha! They ogled! Ogled!" Neji said rather loudly.

"N-Neji. I know you don't like the fact that I'm dating someone, but I've liked him for a really long time now!" Hinata said. "Truth is, I'm dating-"

"Ding dong!"

"So he dares to show his face? He'll pay for that mistake." Neji smirked, dashing towards the door. Hinata followed after him with a worried expression on her face.

Neji put on his most menacing and intimidating face. He flung open the door and glared at his opponent.

"YOU!"

"Hi Neji!"

The Hyuuga boy faltered. He almost fell over. His threatening face had transformed into one of shock.

"H-Hello, N-Naruto." Hinata said shyly, blushing a startling shade of red.

"Hey Hinata. You look beautiful." Naruto grinned, making the girl blush even redder. The boy smiled at Neji. "I tried to tell you earlier, but I guess you know now, huh?"

"Naruto?" Neji managed to get out.

HE was the guy Hinata was DATING? Naruto was one of his best friends and he didn't know he was the one dating Hinata? Neji stared accusingly at the can of soda in his hand. Had Kiba somehow spiked all his drinks again?

"Right, so, nice talking to ya Neji, but we gotta go." Naruto smiled.

"Bye. Tell father that I may be a bit late tonight, okay Neji?" Hinata smiled, slipping her hand into Naruto's.

"O-Of course!" Neji said, still in a state of shock and disbelief. "Have a nice time!"

"Cool! Let's go Hinata." Naruto smiled. The girl nodded, blushed, and they walked away.

Neji stood there a few minutes after they left. His brain was having trouble downloading the data it had just received. No matter how many times he ran over it in his head, the big computer screen in his head only processed the word "ERROR" in big red letters. Finally, Neji was able to collect his thoughts and his menacing face returned. He crushed the soda can in his hands and screamed at the top of his lungs.

"NARUTO!"

"I think I should lay low for a while." Naruto said as he and Hinata drove away in his car. "I really didn't think he'd make such a big deal out of it."

"That's my cousin for you. Always so overprotective, same with father." Hinata smiled. "Even if they do go overboard sometimes, I still love them."

"I love you." Naruto grinned, leaning over and giving his girlfriend a peck on the cheek. She blushed and smiled happily.

"I love you too, Naruto."

A/N: Heh. It's always fun to write about Neji's, or Hiashi's, reactions to Naruto and Hinata dating. Naruto's the only one who doesn't fear the Hyuuga's wrath. I'll post the next one soon.

And just so you guys know, I take suggestions, requests, and ideas. So if you've got any, I'd be more than happy to hear them. Just make sure they're NaruHina.
