Title: His Talking, Her Listening

By: DarkNightDreamer

A/N: My first posted Naruto fic! Well, a one-shot anyway. So, please review! ) Encouragement needed! Btw, this is a NejiTen fic. –sigh- I love them.

Disclaimer: Naruto belongs to Kishimoto. But sushi shall always and forever belong to me!

Summary: She could never manage to tune out his voice, no matter the circumstance.

Whenever someone was talking, she could always manage to tune out their voice, and retreat back to her own little world, fantasies and images and stories afloat. (Weapons too, of course.)

No, she defended herself. It wasn't that what they said was boring. Not at all.

He…was just a different story.

Whenever he was talking, she just couldn't stop listening.

Perhaps it was the fact that he seldom spoke, and when he did, they were very much needed words.

Or perhaps it was that he spoke very softly, and she had to strain to hear.

Maybe it was because he was almost always the team leader, and all team members had to listen to him.

But here, sitting beneath the tree, lying down relaxed with arms folded behind her head, she shook her head no at all these possibilities.

Because when she looked in his bottomless white, white, eyes, she knew the answer was oh so clear.

And when his lips curled into a little half-smile at the oddest, rarest times, it was there. Right in front of her.

Sitting up straight as fast as a bolt of lightning, she looked sideways at his slightly puzzled face leaning towards hers.

And it hit her.

She had finally realized it.

She loved him.

And so when he leaned forward and claimed her lips in a kiss, she didn't hesitate to gently place her flitting hands onto his arms.

Because, after all, he loved her too.

A/N: So how'd you guys like it? Cyn? Did you? LOL, anyhow…please review! )

Also, can anyone tell me which episode of the anime has Neji and Tenten in it? Or which chappie of the manga? Either one's fine…or maybe both…-laughs and sweatdrops- Thanks much!

Love,

Maggiee

P.S. This might turn into a collection of one-shots for all the pairings I like in Naruto (ShikaIno, SasuSaku, NejiTen, NaruHina!), so please review! ) You never know if I'll do it!

P.P.S. Flames accepted. Although I'd rather you not do it. I'll come back at you. Really. I plan to major in law one day. XP

-editt- LOL. XD Ok. I fixed the major in debating to major in law. Just to un-confuse my anonymous reviewer. Also, I changed zone out to tune out! Hope you like it better that way now! ) (did your review count as a flame?) So thank you to all my reviewers!
