Neji was thrown out of the room Hiashi had beat him in. He could stand and walk now but he still couldn't run. He walke out towards the gate, he had to get out of there before Dawn came back and ha d her way with him. He reached the gate and saw Tenten up ahead. He was relived now he could tell her he was sorry.
"Neji! Why weren't you at the sushi returant last night?" She yelled.
"I am sorry Tenten, but Dawn had snitched and I was held up by Hiashi-sama." He said leaning against the gate for support.
"Liar!" Tenten had pounded the image of Neji and Dawn into her head that she wouldn't belive anything he said.
"It's th truth Tenten I'm so-" He stopped.
"Well?" She wondered. He wrinkled his nose he had to say it.
"I'm-" This time he was cut off by Tenten.
"You kno what keep your lies! I don't care anymore." She turned away and he saw tars in her eyes.
"Tenten look at me." She turned around and he hugged her mostly for soppourt so he wouldn't fall. "I'm sorry it wont happen again." He whispered. Tenten felt blood on her hands. Neji leaned back against the wall and she looked down. It was blood, commming from Neji! He slumped to the ground in pain.
"Are you ok?' She asked down by his side.
"Yea just wounds reopened from last night." Neji said trying to stop the blood.
"We ghave to get you help." She started to run into the mannor but Neji caught her wrist.
"Not in there." He huffed. She sighed.
"Fine, we'll go to my place." She helped him up and they headed back to Tenten's house. She opened the door and set him gently down on the coutch. She rushed into the kitchen and fumled around. Neji looked at the floor. You could still see traces of Tenten's blood. He laughed as she came out with bandages.
"Ok, take off your shirt." She said casually, Neji started freaking out.
"What? Why?" He asked.
"So I can bandage your wounds." Sh said, He grumbled and took it off. She put some cream on and wrapped him up. She rose to her feet and went ack to the kitchen putting her things away. Neji put his shirt back on and slumped down. Tenten came back out.
"You ok now?" She asked. He mumbled something. She bent down in front of him. "do you wanna go home?"
"I'm not 4." He said looking back into her eyes. Her heartv skipped a beat as did his, they looked at each other for a long time and before tenten knew what she was doing she kisse him. Gently. And he kissed her back. It was a magical few seconds. Before they broke.
"Yea, I have to get back, or they'll beat me again." He rose to the door.
"Do you need any help?" She asked.
"No, thats ok I'll be fine." He walked out of the door and Tenten was shocked for about 30 seconds before falling back on the coutch touching her lips.
'I cant belive I kissed him, and he kissed me back.' She thought as the day grew on.
