Notes: catcuriousitykillme posed an interesting point- certainly not everyone considers a relationship between cousins to be incest. In fact, some areas/religions encourage unions between cousins. I'm not sure how they feel about it in Japan, but Neji's opinion is clear. However, this aside, there will most assuredly be incest.

Also, there's nothing terribly graphic about it, but if reading about Neji's bum freaks you out (sorry!), don't continue. No, it's not yaoi or anything, it's just weirdness.

CHAPTER 5

It was his sixth day of "training," and Neji thought he'd done it all.

After the initial shock, things fell into place, seeming almost normal now. With the help of his "trainer," he'd experienced everything from tender, romantic cuddling to straight-out mindless fucking, finding his preference to be somewhere in between. She usually had specific plans for him, but sometimes, at the end of the night, she'd let him experiment.

When he had his choice, he liked to feel her body beneath him, lips at his neck and arms around his shoulders, their legs entangled, bodies joined. Or, bracing himself against the headboard, he'd slide her down onto him, hands directing her hips as he rocked gently into her. Other times, taking her from behind, he would reach around to caress her breasts,or slide his fingers further down to rub smooth, slickcircles against her as she made those sounds he couldn't get enough of.

So after all this, he'd justifiably come to believe he'd grown out of being shocked. After all, what could there be he hadn't tried? However, it was now clear that he had been quite mistaken.

"You want to put WHAT up my WHERE?" Eyes wide, he gaped as the woman smacked the object lightly against her palm.

"You heard me," she said, one softly-curled lock falling across her brow as she tilted her head expectantly.

"No," he told her, arms crossed against his naked chest. "Absolutely not."

"Wrong answer. Turn around."

"I said no, and that means NO! Hinata would definitely NOT do this to me!" he shouted, clenching his teeth.

"If you're scared..." she began.

"I am NOT scared! I am a chuunin ninja-"

"-master of the Kaiten and the Sixth-Four Hands of blah, blah, blah, I remember the spiel. But this is the last of the basics, and unless you'd like me to bring in a man to-"

"NO!"

"Then snap to it."

Ass still planted firmly on the bed, Neji raised his chin and sent the woman the type of glare that made grown men wet themselves. "I'm NOT doing it, and there's no way in HELL you'll ever convince me!" he declared.

Sprawled face-down on the bed, pillow over his head, Neji once again cursed fate.

"You see, that wasn't so bad, now was it?" she asked, rubbing his back soothingly.

"It was hideous," Neji moaned, pulling the pillow tighter over his ears. If there were ninja ranks for sexual persuasion, this woman would be Hokage.

"Hideous in that I was right, or hideous that you liked it?" she asked, her weight lifting off the bed.

"...ngh..."

Neji tried in vain to shut out the melodic laughter that followed. If only she'd stayed dressed...

"Well, your performance was acceptable- the writhing in ecstasy was a good addition-"

Neji groaned.

"-so I have a mission for you."

"Stop talking. I'm taking a nap."

"Sleeping after sex? I'm shocked." She didn't sound it. "But I'm going to give you your mission and see you out. I have better things to do than listen to you snore."

"Shut up."

"Have sex with someone else."

"Fine... what do you want?" he grumbled, lifting the pillow from his head.

"That's your mission. You have to sleep with someone else. A virgin. We'll call it a trial run."

Neji sighed heavily as he dragged himself up, annoyed when it hurt. Sleep with a virgin. Of course. She had to make sure he could manage with Hinata. Who would never, ever, EVER want to have sex with him. Not that she should; that was vile. As was taking someone's virginity as a "trial run."

"That's highly immoral," he told her half-heartedly. He hadn't been doing so well getting his way, and he didn't have high hopes. "No girl would do that, giving up her maidenhood so easily."

The woman rolled her eyes. " 'Maidenhood'... how old-fashioned! I know for a fact there are a number of young women who'd give their eye teeth to sleep with you. They don't care about morality! You're a Hyuuga, a genius, a superior ninja headed straight to the top! ...and with a very nice ass, to boot."

"So NOW you compliment me," he mumbled, sifting through the rumpled sheets for his headband.

"It'll be different with someone else, and you need to experience that," she said, making it sound like a matter of course. "Especially with a virgin."

"I'd feel like a predator," he said, fingers closing around the familiar blue fabric. "And besides, how would I arrange it?"

"Well, that's up to you. But I don't want to see you again until you're prepared to tell me all about it, in graphic, scintillating detail."

"Which means I'm stuck doing genin work until I succeed in deflowering an innocent girl. Pleasant."

She sighed. "...deflowering... honestly, where DO you get these expressions? But yes, that is correct. Come back when you're finished, but remember not to be early."

Neji scowled at the metal-etched leaf in his hand. "Only a man without honor would take advantage of a respectable woman, and I am an honorable man. But being an honorable man, I can't have relations with an unrespectable woman, for fear of compromising my honor. And since only an unrespectable woman would have sex with a man who lies to her, which I would be forced to do-"

"Stop over-analyzing it," the woman said, shaking her head. "People have sex all the time for worse reasons, I assure you."

"I'm not 'people,' " Neji told her indignantly. "I'm above that. Above THEM."

"Well," she told him with a strangely wistful, wholly beautiful smile, "it doesn't look like you are anymore."
