(Author's notes: Wow. I was prepared to get flamed like crazy for this pairing. Maybe they just haven't come out yet... OO Thanks for the reviews so far and I'm really glad the whole Neji giggling part went over okay. I was afraid to do it at first 'cause I hoped it wouldn't get him too out of character or make it way too awkward, but I was brave and put it in.
I know "specialness" sounded pretty stupid and I was afraid it was going to confuse the hell out some people, but I really didn't want to straight up say "vampires" just yet.
All the same warnings as before. Now I can say there's mild VAMPIRE violence (blood, whatever) and sexual content since I'm pretty sure you guys got it already.
Disclaimer: Again, I don't own Naruto or any of it's characters.)

"Neji-kun? Hey, you're not really hurt are you?"
Neji opened an eye and found TenTen hovering over him.
"Damn. I was hoping you'd try getting on me to see if I was okay, yourself." Neji gave a sarcastic tone to this and managed a little smirk in the corner of his mouth with his normally stern look to his closed eyes and brow.
TenTen didn't seem to catch the sarcasm though and laid a pretty hard kick to his side while blushing furiously.
"Pervert." TenTen distanced herself with a bit of a disappointed stride.
"Ow." Neji held onto his kicked side and tried to sit up and spoke so low he was sure TenTen didn't even hear him.
The brunette finally managed to sit all the way up as the pain in his side abated. He glanced around at the mess he and his teammate had made training. Kunai, shuriken, and every other weapon you could think of littered the ground around him.
"Are you gonna get back up and continue then-"
"Ah!" Neji gasped suddenly and pressed the left side of his neck.
TenTen ran up and knelt down next to her teammate in worry and caution.
"You'd better not be playing this time."
Neji opened his shut eyes and pulled his hand away from his throat slowly.
"Just a sharp pain, that's all." Neji stood up hesitantly.
He looked at TenTen directly and found her with a concerned expression.
He knew what she was gonna ask and REALLY did not want to go into that territory right now.
"Hinata-sama, again?"
Too late.
"It's nothing... Seriously," He couldn't help but look a little mad just hearing the mention of his cousin, " I gotta go."
Neji knew it was a lame excuse, but ran off quickly leaving a somewhat irritated TenTen to collect her things all by herself.
...
The brunette didn't come here very often, but he really felt the need to today... He was surprised that the ramen shop's most faithful patron (being Naruto) wasn't there, but was fine with it nontheless. He wanted some quiet for the time being.
Neji had an awful feeling in the back of his conscience for just ditching TenTen like that... but he did not want to talk about Hinata and him. He still felt too awkward about what he and Hinata do less tell someone about it.
He knew Hiashi-sama was sincere about... his father's decision and what ultimately became of his fate, but...
Neji's whole relationship with the Head House seemed to flip after the Chuunin exams were long over. Now everything was strange and confusing for him. He actually liked it better before when he believed what he did and simply hated them all with a passion.
Now he didn't know what to think anymore.
He was sure he still held some hatred of them. It was too hard to just forgive them and drop everything.
Neji really didn't want to think to hard on what Hiashi-sama said too much. He finally knew and that was that.
The brunette gingerly touched his bandaged neck staring down with his normal serious expression.
The only bit that disturbed him slightly... was learning after all of these years that his own father... was one of THEM.

(Author's notes: This chapter bored me, but I wanted to hurry and get to the good stuff about Neji's past, the weird pairing, and about his dad, Hizashi, being a vampire. Especially since it's only the Head family who're vampires so this will be fun. I finally get to explain mostly everything.
Oh yeah, I'm pretty evil putting that teasing part with TenTen and Neji. ):)
I hope to God to keep Neji in character and I don't want to overdue the vampire twist in this story too annoyingly.)
