Chapter 9: Can I Have A Ride Home?
With Neji and Tenten...
The two were busy painting, Tenten painted the fastest though, she seemed to be into this whole "paining" thing, Neji, on the other hand was slowly swipping the brush up and down in the same place on the wall, he was bored out of his mind.
"How the hell did I get detention, this sucks, damned frenchies!"Neji grumbled under his breath.(no offence frenchies, he means the jock frenchies at their school)
Flashback...
'Yo, Girly, got a hairband I could borrow? My girlfriend needs one! HAHAHAHA!' The brown haired frenchie teased.
Neji was now feuming, they'd made fun of his long hair one too many times, he'd kill em.
The Hyuuga looked around, there was him, and the three french guys in the locker room, now was his chance.
'You know, I think I do have an extra hairband.' He pulled one out of the pocket of his shorts and walked over to the frenchie. He handed it to him, the boy looked stunned, he didn't think Neji would really take the insult so well.
'Uhhhhh, thanks?...' The jock managed to say.
' No, thank you.' Neji swung his fist, hitting the much taller boy in the mouth, blood spued everywhere. Neji wasn't finished yet, he was very very angry.
He threw one punch after another at him, but was grabbed by the other boys two friends and slamed into one of the lockers, where he received the worst beating he could imagine.
The three boys stopped after Neji was unconcious from the beatings, and thats how Neji got detention, for noto being at his next class.
Thankfully his friends, Tenten and Lee, over-heard the french guys gloating about beating up Hyuuga Neji and so the two went to save him. Rock Lee and Tenten rescued him in time for his next class. That is why Tenten went to detention, for being in the boys locker room.
End Flashback...
"Neji, are you okay?" Tenten lifted an eyebrow.
"Huh?" Neji had been crushing the paintbrush in his strong hands, killing it without noticing."Oh, I was just thinking..."
"Geez," She turned back and started painting again. "You must be angry to kill the paintbrush like that." She giggled.
The white-eyed boy rolled his eyes, detention always pissed him off.
About fifteen or twenty minutes went by without either of them talking, this scilence made Tenten nevous, she didn't want to make angry and for him being angry at her, causing the scilence. The scilence didn't really bother Neji, he was thinking of a way to tell Tenten he liked her, the quiet made it easier for him to think.
"We're finished." Tenten said meekly, she too wanted to tell Neji about her feelings for him.
The brunette's quiet voice startled him, she never acted nevous or quiet as she was now, it remindede him of his cusin Hinata, he did not like Hinata, or the way she acted.
"Yeaaaah, whats with acting like my cusin?" Neji was utterly confused by her actions.
She snapped out of it. " Oh, haha, sorry! Lets go tell Iruka we're done!" Tenten flashed him her brightest smile. 'Holy crap! What the heck came over me just now?'
Neji and Tenten walked up to their old sensei, " We're all finished!" Tenten chirpped.
"Very well, thank you for your help, you can go home now, unless you otwo want to stay and work some more." Iruka joked
"No thanks, I'm goin' home." Neji walked away, arms crossed.
"Yeahhhhh, I gotta head home too." Tenten ran to catch up with Neji.
"Um...uh..Neji..." Tenten looked down at the ground, a small tint of pink appeared on her cheeks. "C-could I get a...um...a ride home! My cars broken down and I need someone close to my house and scince we're neibors- "
"Sure."
"Huh?" She didn't quite register what had just happend.
"Sure, I'd be happy to give you a ride home."
"Really? Th-thank you." The blush appeared on her face again.
They both walked up to where they're backpacks were sitting and exited through the back door.
"Hey," The oh-so farmiliar voices of the french bullies rang out from bihind them. "Girly, don't do her to hard, we have a football game coming up and we need her to play."
Both Neji and Tenten's eyes went wide and their faces went red with what the jocks said.
"Get lost." Neji got into the car, followed by Tenten.
He turned the key and sped out of there as fast as he could.
"Tenten, you know I'd never do something like that, especially to you." Neji looked strate ahead at the road as he spoke, but his tone was different than usual, it was kind, and worried.
"I know." Tenten looked down at the floor of the car. " I trust you more than that, and I know you wouldn't do something like that to me. it just made me a bit nevous, thats all." She changed the subject. " So how do you feel? You know, after those jocks beat you up yesterday."
"Yeah, I'm fine." His voice went back to its usual mono-toned self.
"Thats good, you're still looked banged up so I thought I'd ask."
He nodded once.
"N-Neji, um... I... I... I "
"Heres your house." Neji said as he parked the car, completely inturupting Tenten.
"O-oh, well, see you later I guess." She opend the car door but before she left, she kissed him on his lips quickly. " Thanks for the ride, Neji-kun." The brown-haired girl ran up to the frontdoor of her house and opend the door, glancing back at Neji, who was still sitting his car, red as a tomato, she saw Neji and Hinata's family resemblence, they looked like the same person when they blushed. It made her giggle as she closed the door and ran upstairs to her room.
Neji tried to regain his composure as he drove a few houses down to his uncles home, thinking that maybe, he there was more than just likeing Tenten, maybe, he liked her more than that.
