Chapter 13: Neji x Sakura
Neji doesn't tolerate weakness, whether in himself or in anybody else. That's why he hates Sakura. Neji hates Sakura. He doesn't consider hate a weakness – it lends strength in times of need. So, he's allowed to hate Sakura.
He hates Sakura because she makes him weak. She makes his body feel weaker, and sometimes his desire to … to what? To touch her? To… be with her makes him want to stop training. He doesn't understand this odd feeling she causes in him, doesn't know what to do about it, but he knows one thing – it is weakness, and Neji doesn't tolerate weakness.
So he grimly continues training, but he watches the pink-haired kunoichi out of the corner of his eyes, because even though he hates weakness, he can't get rid of it.
