NARUTO'S FIRST DATE CHAPTER 6
Hyuuga Neji curled up comfortably in his sleeping bag. His chest rose and fell in a constant pace as he breath. His long, beautiful dark hair sprawled messily around him. He was too tired yesterday, the training, plus those annoying cleaning and cooking job, not to mention a certain blonde who kept his distance from him, he didn't know why though. Now here he was, enjoying his sleep until a hand shook his shoulder, and he heard someone whispering his name.
"Neji... Neji, wake up," that voice, he knew that voice.
"Five more minutes, Hinata-sama..." he muttered and shook the hand off his shoulder.
"Hinata? What are you talking about? Geeezzz...wake up!" the voice whispered again.
"Hinata-sama... I'm so tired, five more minutes please, and why did you sound like a turkey?" Neji muttered, still with his eyes closed.
"WHADDYA MEAN I SOUND LIKE A TURKEY?" the voice shouted and a hand grabbed his collar, shook him so he opened his eyes. Neji's eyes widened when he saw the person.
"Oh my God, Hinata-sama... you even LOOK like a turkey!" said Neji as he saw the person, Shikamaru, to be exact.
"Do I look like a turkey, genius?" asked Shikamaru, as he stared at Neji's pearl white eyes.
Yeah, a lot. "Huh? Shikamaru? What are you doing... wait, oh yeah... the training, I forgot..." Neji muttered.
"Ssssh... Neji..." Shikamaru whispered and gestured to the bedroom door.
"Huh? What's with..." but Neji's 'what-are-you-talking-about' expression changed into an alert one.
"Someone's outside the door... three, no, four... who are they?" Neji whispered as he glanced at the sleeping figure of the rest of Konoha Five and Lee.
"Dunno... since the rest of us is here... maybe they're thieves, or burglars... or maybe debt collector! Anyway Neji, do your job..."
"Sure..." Neji made a few hand-seals to activate Byakugan, veins around his eyes bulged out as he activated his bloodline. He concentrated on the door and saw through it.
"Hey... those guys are--" but his words were cut off by a loud crash indicating the bedroom door was crashed down by someone, that sound has made the rest of the group jumped out from their sleeping bags in shock.
"WHO'S THERE?" Lee shouted as he went into his taijutsu stance.
All of their eyes bulged out when they saw the people stood in front of them.
"HIYA GUYS! OOOHHAAAAYYOOOOO!" Kankurou waved his hand cheerfully. His older sister Temari and the youngest of the three Gaara poked their heads from behind Kankurou's back.
"WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING IN HERE?" Naruto shouted.
"We just come to visit! Aren't you guys happy to see us again?" Kankurou asked sweetly.
The Konoha genins and chuunin exchanged glances, they stayed silent.
"Happy, aren't you?" Kankurou cracked his knuckles and gave them death look.
"Y-yes yes yes! O-of course we're happy! W-why wo-wouldn't we?" Lee said nervously. Kankurou smiled proudly and nodded his head. "Good, good."
"I told you they won't be happy to see you guys, the cold-blooded-killers..." said a voice from behind Kankurou's back, and Uchiha Sasuke stepped into everyone's view.
"YOU!" Naruto shouted.
"Me?" asked Gaara.
"Us?" asked Temari and Kankurou.
"Him?" asked Kiba as he pointed at Lee.
"NO! YOU! SASUKE-TEMME! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?"
Sasuke sighed. "Tsunade-sama told me to watch over your training... so I'll come every two days to collect your data and I'll report it to Tsunade-sama so you better do your best," said Sasuke matter-of-factly.
"WHAT! WHY?"
"Because I'M Uchiha Sasuke, gotta problem with that, dobe?"
"WHAT? TAKE THAT BACK YOU—"
And while Sasuke and Naruto continued their usual fight, the others decided to do other activities than listening to those two.
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Naruto stomped into the kitchen, muttering various curses and words unsuitable for children underage. Neji was already there, making some toasted breads. He immediately sensed that Naruto was not in a good mood.
"That Sasuke-temme! Wait until I kick his sorry ass!" Naruto said to himself. "Yo, Neji... here, lemme help."
"Here..." Neji handed a few eggs to Naruto, Naruto took it and started boiling those eggs.
"What's our schedule today?" Naruto asked.
"Well, maybe same like yesterday, training, eating, training again, breathing, sleeping and going to the bathroom?" Neji suggested.
"Neji..."
"Just kidding..." Neji chuckled a bit.
At the sight of Neji chuckling, Naruto realized that he has a certain feeling towards the Hyuuga prodigy and he must get rid of the said feeling because he didn't want to break his friendship bond with Neji. Okay... what should I do? Grab him and kiss him? No, certainly not...
A 2.5 watt light bulb appeared on his head.
Yeah, ask him about dating Sakura-chan! I thought about it yesterday! I'll concentrate on Sakura-chan and forget about him...yeah, that's it!
"Neji?" he called.
"Hm?"
"If you're a girl—"
"WHAT?"
"NO! I mean JUST IMAGINE if you're a girl and one day I come to you, and I say 'you're the prettiest girl I've ever met, will you go out on a date with me?'... what will you do?" Naruto asked.
"I'll choke on my tea, blush and stare at you as if you're insane..." said Neji.
"That's YOUR reaction a few days ago! I mean just imagine if you're Sakura-chan!"
If it's ME I'll happily accept that offer... said Neji mentally. "Why did you ask something like that all of sudden?"
"Just... answer," was Naruto's simple statement.
"If... I'm Sakura?" asked Neji. Naruto nodded as the answer.
Maybe I can use this chance...Neji put his hand on his chin in a thinking pose for a moment before he squealed in delight and hugged Naruto like a four year old girl will do when she received her first teddy bear. Naruto turned bright red in an instant.
"Naruto! I'm so happy that you said that! Sasuke-kun always rejects my offer and he always said that I'm annoying! I don't know that you're so nice!" Neji said, he mimicked Sakura perfectly.
Naruto couldn't breath properly since his head was buried on Neji's chest. But luckily it could hide his flaring cheeks perfectly. Whoa whoa whoa whoa! Wait wait wait! This is not on the plan! Naruto started panicking. He could smell Neji's scent, he could FEEL Neji's warm body against his. Naruto was worried in case Neji could hear his pounding-so-loud heart.
I don't know he's so... warm and comforting... Unconsciously, he stretched out his hands and hugged the genius back. Neji's eyes widened slightly at the unpredictable gesture.
"U-Um...Na- Naruto?" Neji's voice made Naruto snapped back to reality, he quickly let go of Neji's embrace.
"S-Sorry! U-um... ah... n-nice job, thanks...um," he stuttered. Neji eyed the blushing blonde quizzically.
"Naruto?"
Damn damn damm! He saw you blushing and stuttering like an idiot! What should I say? Think Uzumaki! Think! Naruto thought frantically.
"Um, Ne—"
"YO!" Kiba entered the kitchen in his usual Kiba style, Akamaru followed his master obediently.
GOD BLESS YOU KIBA! THANKS A LOT! Naruto shouted mentally, relieved.
"Hey, those eggs are boiled already right? Oh look! Toasted bread! We can eat now, right? Right? I'm hungry!" said Kiba as he took a big plate filled with toasted bread.
"Y-yes! Let's bring these to the dining room and let's eat with the others!" Naruto quickly snatched the pan filled with boiled eggs and ran off.
"Huh? What's with him? He's weird" asked Kiba, but Neji just shrugged as the answer.
"Forget it... let's eat..." Neji said and walked away from the kitchen to join the others in dining room. Kiba eyed him suspiciously but said nothing, he just followed his senior closely.
This is going to be a long day...
-TBC-
Author's note: Finished! Sasuke finally appeared, but he didn't do anything... yet. Patience is the key, or to be exact review is the key! He he he, reviews please! I have nothing else to say except a few answers for my reviews...
heheheh : Whoa, you have a unique pen name... yep, we're Indonesian! You too? Or not?
KarmaDreamz: Actually, I'm not sure about what is 'Syandaroo' means... Inner Sakura says it a lot though... in the Indonesian version of Naruto manga, it was translated into 'YEAAAH!'
Momochi Zabuza: Jealous Neji? That's a great idea! Thanx! Please keep on reading this!
