Tenten's POV

"Does it have to be a love poem?"
-
Sometimes I really wonder,
why Gai-sensei always makes us do
such embarrassing things with each other as team mates.
Was this supposed to make us feel more comfortable around each other?
If anything, you would think that writting love poems, of all things,
would only create more tension among us...
create discomfort instead of familiarity.
-
Or at least... I'm assuming that any normal person would think so.
-
Then again, Gai-sensei has
never been what you could term, 'normal'.
-
"Yes! You must write your truest feelings of love for each other and express it in beautiful prose!"
-
Neji and I both stared at him as though he were the craziest lunatic we'd ever met.
Even Lee looked a bit confused. No doubt even he was wondering what our sensei was thinking.
-
Wishing for some clarification, I asked another question.
-
"But what if we don't feel that way about one another?
Are we supposed to just pretend that we do?"
-
At this, Gai put on a serious expression.
-
"On this team, we must all love each other as team mates and true comrades in battle!
In the face of great challenges these bonds are what will increase our strength by ten fold!"
-
His dramatics increased with every sentence and word.
-
"It is the love! The love of the true spirit of friendship, and strength in unity of youth!
The love that can conquer worlds and remove all traces of darkness!
Love is the key to all things!"
-
I held up my hands.
-
"Okay, okay Gai-sensei. I think we get it..."
-
"Yosh! If I can express my love towards my fellow comrades,
then surly it would not be hard to express, even more beautifully,
the bright shinning love I have for Sakura-san!"
-
"That's right Lee! Ganbatte!" At this Gai gave his nice-guy pose,
and in response Lee gave one back with just as much gusto...
-
Thus it was reluctantly, that both Neji and I agreed.
In truth, I was rather curious.
Hyuuga Neji... write poetry?
This was going to be the laugh of the century.

Laugh of the century? Oh I do hope it's not that bad. Heh...
