His feelings -Girls-

'NEJI!' Lee screamed

'Lee inside voice' Neji replied

'Do you really think Tenten weak?' Lee inquired after seeing how hurt Tenten was at this comment. Neji just gave an emotional look a Lee 'Because I think she taken it to heart' Neji turned around. Tenten was a couple a meters behind, continually look around.

'No…' Neji replied calmly as if it was an obvious answer. 'geez… Girls'

'Then…' Neji quickly cut him off

'Being weak and being weak compared to others are completely different… and beside I wanted to train with her… she the only one that comes close to hitting me'

'ONLY ONE? NEJI! ARE YOU CALL ME WEAK!' Lee said defensively

Neji sighed 'Look…'

'NEJI! LEE! LOOK INFRONT!' Both boys stopped immediately, there was a giant opening that appeared before them one step closer and they would have fallen in.

'ARE YOU OK?' Tenten quickly ran towards them, only the ground started to grumble, and a large crater appeared in front of her. And she began you fall forwards

'TENTEN!' Neji called out 'Crap! Crap! Crap! She gonna fall in'

Neji threw up his boxes which Lee skillful caught without losing his footing, 'WAIT NEJI!' unfortunately Tenten's boxes (which came out of her hands) hurled toward him this caused him to fall backwards.

Anyway back to Neji and Tenten >

'Crap! Crap! Crap! She gonna fall in…not good not good'

'Byakugan!' Neji quickly jumped into the hole before Tenten and was able to catch her. Luckily Neji's Byakugan allowed him to see a tree root coming off the side wall. He was hanging on the root with one hand and his other arm supporting Tenten.

'Tenten! Are you ok?' Neji asked with concern. She was bright red in to face. 'Tenten?' Unlike Tenten, he didn't notice to position in which he caught her. She had fallen on his arm like when you had your clothes (Tenten) dying on a clothes line (Neji's arm). And unfortunately her chest area happens to be on his arm. This position also causes him to blush, so he turns to sky to avoid eye contact with Tenten.

'Ano… you put he down Neji' Tenten said still bright red in the face

'Just bear with me until I think of something' Neji replied trying hard to think of something, however to fluster to think.

'Really you can just let me down…I'm too heavy' Tenten replied her face now returning to it natural colour

'Tenten! Don't be stupid! Just bear with me while I'm thinking' Neji was getting even more flustered at this point.

'But Neji!'

'…I promise I'm not perving on you!…' Neji was getting even more flustered at this point.

'ummm…. I know' this statement had her blush a bit 'but if you look down…' At this point Neji look down 'we're only about a meter off the ground'

'CRAP!'

He let go of the tree root and they both landed safely down

'HEY ARE YOU OK?' Lee called to his 'fallen' friends

'YES LEE! THINK YOU CAN HELP US UP?' Tenten relied

After a few minutes they were out of the hole safe and sound

'I wonder what caused that?' Tenten enquired

Lee looked around 'This area had a major earthquake a few weeks ago, perhaps the landscape became unstable and caused a varies holes' Lee explained

'But that carter look like it was forced to open…' Tenten replied

'In any case I surveyed the area and I saw no enemy' Neji replied. Tenten tilted her head in concern.

'Nee… Neji are you ok?' She asked

'Yes why?'

'Well your Byakugan didn't pick up the fact that it was a shallow hole' Tenten replied

'I was concentrating elsewhere, get your stuff lets go' Neji blush slightly which didn't go unnoticed by Lee

'OHHHHHH!' Lee said in excitement

Once again they continue there journey with the two male in front and Tenten behind.

'Concentrating elsewhere are we?' Lee said repeating Neji.

Neji quickly replied 'Yeah for enemies'

'AH HA! So why did you scan the area again after you got out?' Lee teased

'Double checking' He replied quickly trying to end the conversation

'I think you were to busy concentrating on Tenten. You were worried about her so once to saw your first option and took it without finding other alternatives' At this point his started to raise and lower his fuzzy eyebrow implying that Neji liked Tenten.

'Whatever' Neji relied 'Crap! He hit the nail right on the head! He was right he did take the first option...Stupid Lee!' Neji turned around. Tenten was walking and he could tell that she was heavily concentrating of where she was stepping

'geez why do I worry? She a big girl and strong…but there's something about her that needs protecting

…Girls'

Neji turned around he heard a cry followed by the noise of falling boxes. He sighed and slowly turned 'Tenten you fell over again didn't y-'

His eyes widened as he saw Tenten being held at knife point by a masked ninja with a sand forehead protected.


OH NO! Tenten in a pickle!
