D: I do not own. I pwn.


37. The repercussions

"Tenten," Neji strode into the room, making Tenten jump at his tone.

"What's wrong?" she asked in alarm as he zeroed in on her.

"Emph!"

Kakashi glanced up from his book, confused at the out-of-nowhere show of affection from the normally-reserved Hyuuga. He had to admit though, it was rather entertaining, since Neji was still disguised as Nadia. And 'she' was kissing Tintin.

However, when he dispelled his clone and absorbed the memories, Kakashi looked like he'd bitten into a very sour lemon.

Neji raised his head and said to Tenten, very seriously, "I am not gay."

"Byuh," she articulated.

Then someone pulled her roughly out of Neji's arms.

"Awmmm?"

Kakashi normally did not kiss girls with his mask on, but as this was an anomalous situation, he went with what felt right.

"I am not gay either."

"Wark." Tenten responded succinctly. When she got her eyes uncrossed, she saw they were awaiting further feedback from her.

"Damn straight." She nodded with gusto, "Hetero all the way."

"We're ready to prove it to you anytime," Kakashi told her solemnly. "So never doubt."

They stared at each other a while longer, before awkwardly returning to their designated areas of the room.
