Chapter 12: Milk!

"Neji?" Shihana asked out of nowhere.

"Yes?" He answered.

"Back then… before Sakura came… were you… um… about to kiss me?" Shihana blushed.

Neji stopped in his tracks and Shihana stopped along with him. She stared at him; wanting an answer.

"I—"

"I…Shihana…" Neji tried to say what he wanted to, but couldn't.

Shihana looked straight into his milky eyes, as if she was searching for the answer in his soul.

"Neji…" Shihana whispered softly.

Neji cupped her cheek with his hands and leaned towards her face.

"Shihana… I…Love you…" Neji whispered softly in her ear.

She looks back at Neji shocked.

"Neji!" Shihana cried as he pulled her into a tight embrace.

"Shi…Don't cry…" Neji said.

Shihana looked up at Neji but still kept a tight grip on his shirt.

"I love you too… Neji" Shihana smiled, Neji held her again.

The whole world seemed to stop as they stood in the same position, which felt like hours...

"SHI-CHAN! NEJI!" A voice yelled.

They turned and saw Naruto running towards them, with his backpack all packed up and ready to go.

"Huh? Naruto! What are you doing here?" Shihana asked confused; Neji was irritated.

"Come on! Our Mission!" Naruto shouted and jumped in the air.

"Naruto… we leave for the mission tomorrow morning…" Shihana said and sweat dropped.

"Really? Oh well, we can leave early!"

"But… Neji and I haven't even packed…"
"Then Hurry! GO!" Naruto whined, and shouted.

"Naruto!" Neji's voice came out of nowhere. "GO HOME AND WAIT TILL TOMMOROW FOR THE MISSION!"

Naruto pouted and walked away; muttering …'stupid Neji, mission tomorrow, nana. Ndfjsdk'

Once again, Shihana and Neji were left alone.

Once Naruto was out of sight, Neji immediately picked her up bridal style and ran to the Hyuuga House.

"I rather prefer a piggyback ride, but this is comfy too" Shihana smiled and Neji just smirked.

As soon as they saw Hinata by the door, Neji put Shihana down.

"Hinata!" Shihana greeted.

"Hi Shihana-chan" Hinata said and gave a small smile.

"Shihana, come on, we have to pack" Neji said in his cold voice.

"Yes sir!" Shihana said and saluted playfully. "Bye Hinata-chan!"

"NEJI!" Shihana shouted and jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Yes, my little Shi-chan?" Neji said playfully.

Shihana was struck with horror and jumped back down and looked him in the eye.

"Who ya calling little!" Shihana pouted.

"You; of course" Neji joked.

"I'm not little!"

"Oh yeah…" Neji replied standing straight up and started to measure both of them.

"No Fair! I just shrunk!" Shihana said.

"Did you drink you're milk?" Neji joked again.

"Neji! Stop it!" Shihana cried out.

"Aww... iss little Shi-chan said?" He joked even farther.

"Err….YOU…YOU…UGH!" Shihana yelled and then stomped on his foot and walked to her room leaving Neji there.

"Shihana…look! I'm sorry!" Neji mumbled and walked towards her bedroom door.

He stared at her door for a while, before knocking.

Second Knock…

"NEJI GO AWAY! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU RIGHT NOW!"

Neji knew she was crying, making him feel like a piece of crap.

"Shihana! Just come here and look at me!" Neji called.

"I AM LOOKING AT YOU! I HAVE A PICTURE OF YOU AND I'M GONNA BURN IT!"

Those words stung Neji.

"Byakugan!" Neji whispered and saw Shihana crying.

She was holding a picture of him and lit a match under it.

"SHIHANA!" Neji started to pound on the door.

"NEJI! I TOLD YOU TO GO AWAY!" She yelled.

"Okay, Okay, I'm sorry" Neji said and rested his head on the door.

The door swiftly opened causing Neji to fall on the ground.

"Ow…." Neji mumbled and got back up.

"Haha… You fell" Shihana said and stuck out her tongue.

Neji immediately smiled and grabbed her into a hug.

"Look. I'm sorry" Neji whispered.

"Its okay" She whispered back.
