A/N: My second entry for "Underneath the Underneath".
Peeping Tom
Even though Hyuuga Neji liked to put on the act that he was perfect in every way that was far from the truth. He managed to keep the mask on until he hit a little thing called puberty. Just like all hormonal male ninjas, he began an intense fascination with the female anatomy. Unfortunately, the only female he was normally near enough to… eye… was his cousin, Hyuuga Hinata. And as much as he swore up and down on all that was holy that he would never, ever, look like that at a relative, much less that weak girl, he finally did. And yes, she did have a semblance of a figure under that jacket. And she didn't wear a shirt under the jacket either.
After that, Neji swore he would be scarred for life, and swore off using his Byakugan to look under a girl's clothes. That lasted about two weeks, blast those pesky hormones. He began wishing that he was on Shikamaru's team, what with Ino and Kurenai, but he still had Tenten around, and she was a girl, even though he had only recently begun thinking of her as such. Tenten had a very nice… figure.
Around Tenten he sometimes had to revert to plain old skills. She knew what the Byakugan was capable off, and if he kept it on too long around her she began to get a little suspicious. Tenten never realized that someone had drilled a hole in her shower. She never would have known, except for the day Lee caught Neji pressed against her house and peering at the wall.
"Neji! What sort of boundless youthful enthusiasm led you to Tenten's home today?" Neji jerked back from the wall and tried his best to look innocent as Lee scurried over. Neji hoped he wasn't looking too suspicious with his hand over the little hole he had drilled.
"What are you doing, Neji?" Lee asked, taking in Neji's stiff stance and the hand over Tenten's wall. Neji shrugged as nonchalantly as he could manage. Lee arched one big, hairy eyebrow and sprung for Neji's hand. A brief scuffle broke out that ended up with Lee exposing the small little hole in the wall. Lee gaped.
"Neji! This looks into Tenten's bathroom! You are violating her privacy and… and…!" Lee spluttered incoherently. Neji cursed to himself and wished he had used the Byakugan today.
"Lee!" Neji said sharply, drawing his teammate's attention. "Sakura wears a red silk bra and thong." Lee fainted. Neji ran for it.
The very next day after regaining consciousness, Lee told on Neji to Gai, and therefore, Tenten. As his female teammate advanced on him with a kunai at the ready, Neji was forced to flee again. As he ran wildly, his feet pounding against the ground and Tenten's curses flying after him like the dogs of war, Neji swore off peeping in general for the rest of his life. This time his vow held him for an entire month.
