Chapter Three:
All of them walked out the ramen stand. Lee smiled at them and stopped when their road seperated. Neji and Tenten would walk together from this way, because Lee's house was at the other side of theirs.
"Good night. Neji, Tenten. I'll see you around." He smiled, more like a sane guy instead making that freaking smile which he gave when he was with Gai-sensei.
Tenten hugged Lee and smiled.
"Sure. Take care Lee."
Neji, shake his hand and nod a goodbye to him.
It felt weird. Not seeing the ones you had been with everyday once. Now they only saw each other when they weren't out for missions and that was really rare.
When Lee left, they were alone. Tenten felt like she felt years ago. Now why would she felt this way, she thought she was over him long while ago... But apperantly, she wasn't. Getting used to his presense, she managed not to blush. But she could feel the heat rising on her face. She could feel the burning cheeks of hers. She looked at Neji and then at the road before starting to walk.
Meanwhile, Neji was feeling things he never felt before. Maybe, he thought, it was because he hadn't seen her in a very long while. He looked at her and saw she looked at him back and starting to walk. He softly sighed, ever so softly that it could be mistaken with the wind. He knew where this was going and he hated himself for letting it to happen. He hated her to make him feel this way. He hated when she looked at him. He hated when she smiled. He hated when she made her puppy face, when she couldn't get what she wanted. He hated even when she talked to him. He hated everyone who ever invented the words that was 'falling in love with'. Yes, to all of our suprise, THE Hyuuga Neji was falling in love with Tenten. And he hated this fact. Because, in all of his life, he was afraid, for the first time... Afraid of all the things that could happen. Both ways.
In his mind, he saw two picture. One is Tenten rejecting him. He would go at her and tell her how he feels - he wasn't sure how that time, that's an another problem. She would - well, he didn't knew how she would reject to, he wasn't rejected before... Because, well, he never asked someone before... There was always pair of fan girls around him and...Ah, well, continue with the picture. He would be hurt, she would be probably angry and he would never see her again. She would tell the girls of his behaivor and Hiashi would be angry at him for not picking a girl who's a Hyuuga, because he 'must' marry a Hyuuga, you see. And for today he always thought the only way him including a girl in his life was to marry with her. And she must be a Hyuuga because that way the pure blood would be saved even for the branch family.
And the other, secretly, made him wonder. He thought of this option and he noticed how he felt happy if this could happen. Tenten and him together... This was something he wanted to make it happen but... He wasn't sure if that would.
She stopped.
"Neji."
He also stopped and looked at her. He then, noticed they arrived at her house..
"Why don't you talk? You barely spoke today. Is something wrong?"
Was something wrong? Kinda...
"No."
"Is something bothering you?"
Yeah.
"No."
"Come on, I can tell you're lying." She smiled.
Oh God, she smiled, he thought.
'Does she have any idea how her smile fits her face? And how could she understand that I'm lying.' He noticed he was silent for long.
"Not really. It is a good night."
She sighed and looked up at the dark sky.
"Yes it is..." Her looks once again captured his. "Neji, is this about Hana?"
Hana? What about her? Why did she brought up Hana now?
"What is?"
"I mean...You weren't like this, you seemed thoughtful all day." She softly spoke.
In her mind, there was lots of things. Jelaousy was the first thing. She knew the fact that one day Neji will be married to a Hyuuga, and she knew that the Hyuugas thought about making Neji and Hinata together. This way, the whole thing about Main and Branch family would be closed and the generation would be new and pure. With Neji's strenght and Hinata's blood. But she knew that neither Neji nor Hinata wished for this marriage, they had given up of the thought. But now...Now that Hana arrived, there would be thought of Hana and Neji. And they seemed so close together. Of course, they were cousins but...
Tenten liked -no- loved Neji. She knew this since he started to make her heart beat faster, and feeling different when his pearl white eyes gazed in hers. She knew this since she and Neji become friends and she discovered his world, his thoughts, him... She knew everything about him and she did it without letting him know anything about her. That way, she could easily hide her feelings from him. But it also broke her heart in a way. She knew how he thought that no one loves him, everything is wrong in his life, he is cursed and all. He would never, ever found out her feelings, her love for him.. That was what broke her heart.
"I was..."
He looked at her. Should he? Because this time seemed like 'now-or-never' times or something like that. Well, he knew he couldn't say it ever if he can't tell her now.And she looked so fragile under the light of the moon. The pale light reflecting from her deep brown eyes.
"Tenten.." Her name was a whisper on his lips, she liked the way it sound.
"Yes?" She really, really, really wanted to know what he thought of all day. But he wouldn't say it so...
"Good night."
' I can't say.'
A disappointed look crossed her face but soon vanished with a bright smile. She shrugged off the pain of probably not seeing him in a long while and sighed. This, would not, affect her in any way..
She hugged him. Her soft embrace holding him, and her scent haunting him. Neji felt his arms surrounding her body and sighing as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"I really missed you, you know." She whispered at him and then looked up to see his face.
He, now, had the most unfamiliar feelings under his chest. Not that no one could ever name it. You could say butterflies or bugs, it doesn't matter. What matters was..
Figthing back the urge of kissing her. Which was really hard for him to do but he was Hyuuga Neji, what did you expect.
He smiled at her -not that you could tell, and whispered back.
"Good night Tenten."
And he let go of her. It was normal for Tenten but for the ones like us, who knew what both of them are feeling were going mad! Including him, I tell you..
Yet, she understood him. She knew he missed her too, she knew he cared and all. But she also knew he was always having hard times saying those things so she also let go. Waving softly at him, she left him standing alone in the street by walking in her house.She closed the door and leaned on the wood, her heart beating so fast that she couldn't even count. His embrace... His eyes... Him, Neji...
Neji, with several thoughts of how could the night end but like this, walked at his own house. When he reached, he saw a familiar face looking out from the window. Her face was cupped with her hands and she watched the sky with interested looks.
Hana thought of how the sky seemed different in her own house. Her house. And she was also listening to Hinata.
"...And now our Hokage is Tsunade-sama." She finished with her last sentence.
"Hana are you listening?" She asked softly.
"Yes ofcourse." She said happily and turned her attention back to her twin.
"Say, Hinata. Can you tell me about your teammates." She looked at her with wonder, she really wanted to hear more about her sisters friends.
"Ok!" She happily said. "Well, there is Kiba with his dog Akamaru. And Shino. Here's a picture of us with Kurenai-sensei..." She talked and talked about them and Hana listened each of the words she said by looking the picture. The guys seemed to be fine yet the thought of having bugs inside had been frightening her a little. Yet the guy looked good, she giggled.
"Say, Hina...Can I come with you tomorrow?" She looked at Hinata, she really wanted to meet them.
"SURE!" Hinata happily exclaimed. With her sister she wasn't the shy girl anymore, she could be relaxed. There would be no harm from Hana.. And they both had smiles on their face when they went to sleep.

Well, Kishimoto Masashi-sensei really knows him I believe.giggles and there may be people too know him but I don't so...toddles off to write more.
