-1Hm…Just thought of some new ideas for this story…

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. This is just a fiction story, based on the Naruto anime.

Okay…

Under Those Glasses of Yours

Chapter Two: If He Really Did Have Glasses…

"Lee! Please be careful not to knock of Neji's glasses!"

"Neji! Don't push yourself! I don't want to be hurt!"

"Neji! Be careful!"

Those were the words that Tenten heard everyday from Maito Gai, her teacher. She was on Team Gai, along with Rock Lee, Hyuuga Neji, and herself, of course.

Every time Gai spoke of Neji's glasses, or Lee did, she noticed that Neji didn't seem to like it. His large, squiggly glasses that only made him look like a nerd. Along with his bunched up hair, all in one clutch at the top of his head. Neji didn't seem to be very strong either. He was the weakest in the group, even if he was a Hyuuga. But for some reason, Tenten didn't think it was right…

Or maybe it was because she had an unusual attraction to go up to him while he was sitting under a tree, take off his glasses, hair, hug and kiss him, saying that it would be alright?

"Ah, Neji, you seem to be improving! Keep it going my youthful student!" Gai told him proudly. But he said that every day after training was over. By then, Tenten knew it was a lie. For even if he did improve, Lee still beat him every time, every training session.

And everyday, like today, she would walk over and share her lunch with him, or offer to, and he'd turn her down with a feisty growl, leaving her behind, sadly.

Unknown to Tenten though, Neji always left with a sad face. Every time he turned down Tenten's offer.

But this time, she was determined to make that change.

Ever since she knew him, he was pushed around, picked on, laughed at, and teased. Basically, he was bullied. Constantly. All the girls point, hold their pointy stuck up noses, and scurry away. Boys, they either laugh and point at him or shake their head in disgrace, not pity. Thinking, 'What a disgrace to the male race.' or 'What an embarrassment to the male race.' Or sometimes, throw eggs and food at him. Most rotten food and eggs.

Tenten walked over, poking Neji. She always wondered what he was doing, always sitting like that. Neji looked up, frowning.

"What? I'm going to turn down your offer again. You know that."

Tenten sat down.

"Neji…"

"What." He said rudely.

"Can…I…have a talk with you?" she asked.

"About what?"

"Is that a yes?"

"If you talk about something stupid again, I'm leaving."

"Fine. If you promise you'll stay, I won't bother you ever again." she said. "Deal?"

"Fine. Deal."

Tenten took a deep breath, then looked him straight in the…er…glasses.

"I've…I've…"

"If you want to talk, talk."

"I've seen you…be bullied before."

Neji didn't look a bit surprised for some reason.

"And…I just…"

"Can you get to the point already?" Neji. Was. Rude. Allthetime. (A/N: I did that on purpose.)

"I want to help you!" Tenten blurted out. She has never had a conversation with Neji, anyway.

Neji laughed. For some reason, Tenten just knew it wasn't real laugh…

"Help me? Don't make me laugh." He told her.

"You just laughed…" Tenten said sheepishly.

Neji sighed.

"Exactly, HOW do YOU, ESPECIALLY YOU, think that you can help ME?" he said. Tenten felt hurt. But she just wasn't the type of person who backed down so easily.

"Like this." Tenten attempted to hit him on the head. Neji's hand shot up and blocked her.

"How is that supposed to help me?" he asked.

"Tell me this: Why couldn't you do that when Lee was going against you? Your speed right there was at least five times his speed now. Two times when his weights are off."

Neji gaped slightly.

"He kicked and punched you today. I watch you to everyday. You could of blocked it easily."

Neji was speechless.

Tenten smirked. (A/N: Yes. Smirked.)

"And this." She did a drop kick. Neji leapt up, landing on a tree branch above him in barely a split second.

"Lee does that all the time. And you always eat dirt, being slammed to the ground so much."

Tenten leapt up onto the branch beside Neji, back against tree.

"Hit me, coward."

Neji frowned. (He was actually glaring but you can't tell since his glasses.)

"No."

"So. You are as weak as I thought."

"…"

"You're a disgrace to the Hyuuga clan, Neji. You coward. Cower away and run for you life."

That, really pissed him off.

Neji used his Jyuuken, in attempt to hit Tenten. Fortunately, Tenten took notice and evaded.

Tenten watched as Neji almost pierced a hole in the tree.

"And…why couldn't you do THAT when you go against Lee? That's the Jyuuken, as I learned from Hinata. You, being a member of the Hyuuga clan, knows it." Neji scowled and leapt down with his immense speed again, lying against the tree.

"Can you leave now?" Neji demanded.

"No."

"Must you so stubborn?"

"See? Now you're talking differently too."

"I am not."

Tenten walked up to Neji.

"I'll leave after one more thing…"

"What?"

Tenten grinned. "Maybe two." she pointed at his glasses and then his hair.

"Take them off."

Neji flinched.

"No!"

"Fine. I won't leave."

Neji growled.

He sulked.

And sulked.

And sulked some more.

Finally…

"FINE. I'LL TAKE THEM OFF! BUT YOU HAVE TO PROMISE THAT YOU'LL LEAVE AFTER THIS POINT!" Neji stood up, roaring at her.

Tenten sighed.

"Fine."

Neji looked down at the grass, and pointed behind her.

"Look that way, and don't peek."

Tenten gave him a weird look, then reluctantly turned around.

Moments later…

"You…You can turn around now…" Neji told her finally.

Tenten sat up and spun around while sitting. She looked up at Neji, who was looking at the grass from a diagonal point of view again.

She blushed.

"N-Neji…" she gasped.

"Can I put on my glasses again?"

Tenten just stared. She got this weird fuzzy feeling inside her.

Neji didn't look at her. He bent down, picked up his glasses and put his hair up again. He started walking away.

Tenten just stared, then, she snapped out of her tension, and quickly ran up to him.

"Wait!"

Neji turned halfway.

Tenten accidentally shoved him into a tree.

Neji slid down with Tenten, sitting on the floor. Her hands on his shoulders, her between his legs. (A/N: NOT LIKE THAT YOU STUPID PEOPLE. THEY'RE STILL FAR APART FROM EACHOTHER! SHE ON HER KNEES, WHICH ARE NO WHERE NEAR HIS…YOU KNOW WHAT!)

Tenten blushed.

"Can you get your hands off of me please?" Neji asked, annoyed. "What exactly do you want?"

Tenten thought about the picture she saw before.

Bold, solid eyes. Uneven, silky raven hair…oh…she lusts for it. She loved him!

Tenten blushed harder at the thought.

She reached up, and put his hair down again. She watched it tumble down in dark waves.

"H-hey! What are you doing!" Neji wanted to rip her arms off of his shoulders, but for some reason, he didn't.

Or was it that…he didn't want to? Was it that, he LIKED Tenten so close to him?

'Damn…shut up.' he thought.

Tenten took off his glasses.

"I…think you look…better like that." she said, blushing.

Neji winced his pearl white eyes.

"What? What did you just say?" That. Just changed Neji's entire motivation on Tenten. He stared at Tenten from top to bottom. He noticed things he never noticed before.

(A/N: Sick minds. No. Don't always focus on the nasty stuff. The farthest he'll probably go that I'll LET him go, is her curves or whatever.)

'Damn…' He thought. 'Those glasses really make me miss out on a whole lot…'

Neji inched forward a bit.

Tenten blushed at how their noses touched. She felt him breath into her skin.

"I-I said-"

Neji jerked forward, smashing his lips into hers.

Tenten's eyes widened. Widened as Neji kissed her oh so passionately, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Tenten felt so exquisite, she started giggling, shivering, and even growling a bit. She settled her hands on his shoulders, moving down slightly.

Much to her surprise, he wasn't wimpy. In fact, he was as lean as a rock.

Finally, Neji pulled away, and nuzzled her porcelain face and hair, taking in her scent.

"What was that for?" Tenten asked, sinking into an embrace.

"I must say, without those glasses, I can see a lot better." he said, pressing his forehead against hers. "Like what you really look like."

Tenten blushed beet red, surprised at his sudden comment. But then, she giggled.

"Neji, I love you…with or without your glasses…"

Neji smirked. Tenten blushed at his smirk. She had never seen Neji smirk before!

"And I, Tenten, love you as well." he said, wrapping his arms around her.

Tenten sunk her head into his shoulder.

"So, tell me. Why do you keep those glasses on anyway? Hair too?" she asked.

"People used to laugh at me when I was younger, after my father had died. I really did feel solitude back then. And…I guess, overall, I didn't like the way I looked. But now…" He smirked at Tenten, looking at her. "I just don't feel that way anymore…"

Tenten blushed yet again, then snuggled against him.

The Next Day…

"Lee! My burning student of youth! Go easy on Neji!" Gai said.

"Hai, Gai-sensei."

"I shall depart for my mission, and share them with my love and show them the power of youth!" And Gai leapt away.

"Hm. Neji, I see that you have gotten a new hair style! And you took off your glasses! But do not worry, I shall take it easy with my burning youth!"

Neji smirked.

"Hn. This time, I'm not holding back…this is what you get for beating me…oh, so many times…" He got into his stance. (Jyuuken)

Fight. Lee attacked with one of his advanced kicks, Konoha Senpuu but…Neji…

Lee gasped. Neji disappeared!

"Jyuuken!" and hit Lee. Lee flew against a tree, holding his side.

"It seems…ugh…" He stood up. "That you have learned a new move, my worthy rival of burning youth."

"Actually, it's quite old. I just never used it. I always held back. But, I shall not make that mistake again…" he smirked. "For that, I am a genius beyond geniuses." (A/N: CoughcoughTRUESTATEMENTcoughcough)

"I, shall never back down!" Lee stood up, eyes on fire with a fist. It seems as though his wounds recovered.

"Then I will not hold back." Neji wouldn't use this against Lee, if it wasn't for Lee beating him everyday.

He got into position.

"It's over…" He smirked. "Hakke, Rokuju YonSho."

And, well, you know. Lee lost.

Wait, Lee lost!

"Lee!" Gai leapt out. Neji just stared.

"Are you okay, Lee?"

Tenten came out from her training. (Target training)

"Gai-sensei? I thought you were on a mission?"

"It was canceled. Also, I will be leaving with Lee for a mission, so you two will have to train together for a while."

"Oh." 'That answers a lot.' Neji thought flatly.

"Gai-sensei, I have lost…" Lee said weakly.

"No, Lee, Neji just won, you did not lose. Your burning youth shall live on! Lee!"

"Gai-sensei!"

"Lee!"

"Gai-sensei!"

"Lee!"

"Gai-sensei!"

"Lee!"

"Gai-sensei!"

"Lee!"

"Gai-sensei!"

So on and so on.

Tenten sighed, then returned to what she previously was doing. Neji followed her.

When she arrived, she wasn't too far from Gai and Lee, since they were still on their training grounds.

She turned around, looking innocent. Neji could of just dropped right there.

"Neji?"

"Hn."

"What are you doing?"

Neji shook his head. "Nothing." (Note: Neji has his hair up like in the anime, you know, with the tiny bit of hair up? Like in the Anime and Manga? So yeah, he looks like he's supposed to.)

"Oh. Okay." Tenten turned around, and was just about to resume her throwing dummies and hitting them with kunai training until…

Neji just appeared in front of her like a snap, causing her to land a kiss on his lips. He smirked, wrapping his arms around her and kissing her, then quickly pulling away. He crossed his arms, then walked over to a tree, sitting down.

"You may continue." he said smirking. "That was all I needed."

Tenten stopped blushing.

"Always using your speed to an advantage, I see."

Neji didn't respond. His emotionless face lay silent. 'Darn. Now his personality changed too. This is the real Neji? Sigh…'

"What are you doing under a tree all the time anyways?"

Neji opened his eyes. He was sitting right under a target.

"Meditating."

"Oh." 'I guess I learned something new today. She walked over to him, and started pulling out the weapons from the target. Neji watched her movements.

Tenten pulled out the last one, feeling Neji's gaze on her. She looked down.

"What?"

"Hn…"

Tenten crouched down, and came face to face with him. She stared for a moment, admiring him in everyway possible. Then, she poked his nose, causing him give a frown.

"What was that for?"

Tenten only giggled. She held her finger right on the tip of his nose.

"Who knew…" she smiled sweetly.

From that day on, Neji had never gotten bullied. But...in order to get revenge, Tenten pretended that she someone was flirting with her, the bully that bullied Neji was flirting with her, EVERY SINGLE ONE, and made Neji mad.

The hospital was quite shocked at the number of patients that checked in, in critical condition. Stayed in the hospital for a two months or so. Three months.

Yes, they were beaten to pulp.

And that was all because they didn't know that.

That is, they didn't know that THAT was what was under those glasses of his.

Ohohen: Well, guess that's done. I decided to watch an episode of Naruto the first season right? And I was kinda upset when I heard Tenten say Sasuke was cute. "He's cute." But it could also be…

Sasuke: Tenten. Right?

Tenten: Sasuke? What?

Sasuke: Do you want to go out?

Tenten: …no.

Sasuke: Why not?

Tenten: Why go out?

Sasuke: You said I was cute right?

Tenten: -Laughs- Cute imitation of Neji! Standing up to the big boys?

Hahaha…whoever came up with the SasuTen pairing is gay. Hm…interesting…I think I'll continue.

Neji: Walks up Tenten.

Sasuke: Neji.

Neji: Sasuke? What are you doing on our training grounds?

Tenten: He asked me out.

Neji: Glares Watch who you're messing with, rookie.

Tenten: I only said you were cute because you were trying to make an effort to stand up against Neji. But, even if you're a rookie, I bet you can't beat us.

Sasuke: Glares at Neji

Neji: Glares a Sasuke

Sasuke & Neji: Glaring contest

Haha…Neji to the rescue. Neji must be thinking, 'NO ONE ASKS MY TENTEN OUT ON A DATE BESIDES ME!' D

Well, review!

…I hate the way everyone loves Sasuke and hates Neji…
