Intensity of the Moment

"Hey Naruto, do you see anything?" Sakura shouted to Naruto who was running slightly faster ahead of her. They had already left the Konoha Gates a few hours ago and headed in the direction that Tenten had been retrieved from. Two weeks had passed since Tenten was exposed to the poison and it had only now made its way into her blood circulation to various parts of her organs. Tsunade had just been able to find out this much information but there were still some questions unanswered and that could mean a negative affect for Tenten so that had to move fast.

Naruto then spotted something that caught his attention from the ground bellow. He stopped his jumping movement from the trees above to change to a descend to the ground. Sakura saw him leap off of the tree and followed just a few feet behind him.

"Did you find something?" Sakura asked seeing Naruto stare at the ground carefully. Naruto didn't pay attention because he was staring at a small silver tube like case. Sakura asked one more time before she got annoyed at being ignored and snapped. She punched Naruto who in turn hit his head against the tree trunk.

"Sakura?! Why'd you do that for?!" Naruto shouted looking at Sakura with his forehead bleeding from the impact.

"Why didn't you answer me?" Sakura asked before turning to start in the direction Naruto as stared in. Then the silver tube like case caught Sakura's attention and she bend down to pick it up. She examined it for a few moments before her eyes widened.

"Naruto, we have to get this back to Tsunade immediately." Sakura said still looking at the case; her tone was different, more fearful. Naruto noticed that right away, thought he wasn't sure as to why Sakura's tone changed to suddenly.

"Why?" Naruto asked tilting his head slightly which would have made Sakura admit was cute but, this wasn't the type of situation for that type of action. Turning the case to the side that made Sakura concerned, she moved it into Naruto's field of view. Naruto squinted his eyes at first to see what it was and it eyes widened as well. It was no sooner that his expression changed from surprised to anger. Inscribed on the silver tube like case was an image of a snake, one that was usually left behind by Orochimaru to label as one of his doings. Naruto could feel the steady chakra in him increase and the Fox's chakra also burning within. Whenever the subject changed to dealing with Orochimaru, Naruto just felt as though he was going to explode out of anger that he lost his best friend to that demon of a man. Sakura watched orange chakra start to seep out of Naruto slowly before speaking up.

"Naruto-" Her voice was calmer and gentle this time hoping to calm him down a bit. However before Sakura could continue Naruto's voice cut her off. His voice was deeper, not his usual annoying tone, more of the tone when the Nine Tailed Fox is in control.

"Let's go Sakura"

Tenten's eyes started to flutter open as she slowly moved into a sitting position on the soft bed she was placed in. Before her eyes could get used to the darkness of the room, a voice from the shadows caused her body to tense up.

"You're finally awake." She had already sensed his presence nearby but not hidden against the door of the room. Before hearing a click from behind him, Neji moved closer to Tenten until his stood next to the bed she lay on. Looking down to not make eye contact with him, she saw that the clothes she was wearing was different from before. It was a large shirt similar to the one she wore before but in a different color. Neji leaned in closer and took her into a tight embrace as though he were to shield her from the world, that she was only his, and that nothing would come to harm her. Tenten wrapped her arms around his neck knowing unstintingly what he wanted and was happy to oblige. He pulled away only to speak five simple words.

"I was scared you wouldn't." His lips immediately crushed onto her lips before she could reply anything to soften his worry. The impact of his kiss sent them backwards causing Tenten's back to reposition back onto the bed with Neji just barely hovering over her. All of his desire, worry, lust and love feelings seemed to pour into her though his kiss as he licked her bottom lip asking no, begging for permission to enter. Complying with his request, she parted her lips as his tongue slipped into her mouth, tasting. Neji placed all of his weight onto his arms that were on opposite sides of her to keep him from falling on top her, in fear of squashing her and causing her anymore pain from the battles she fought that have yet had enough time to heal. Tenten removed her arms from around his neck to trail her fingertips down and into his loosely thrown on Hyuuga style robe that he usually wore.

Beneath his robe, her hands felt the hardness of his chest due to the long ours of training and sparring they had together over the years. Tenten wanted something more though, she wanted to be closer to Neji, to get as close as she could to him and his robe was one of the barriers that denied her this access. She skillfully removed his rode without the assistance of him and without even breaking the kiss, as though she had done this act many times before. With his robe removed, it was her turn to shed an article of clothing. Neji's left hand traveled lower to the rim of the shirt she was wearing and started pulling it off of her. They separated for a quick moment to pull the shirt of fully before Neji moved down to kiss her neck.

"Neji" Tenten couldn't help but moan out his name as the heat on her skin started to intensify and her anticipation for what was going to happen next cause her lower region to painstakingly long for him to hurry up already. Her eyes closed as he moved lower toward her chest, lower toward her stomach, lower to areas that she knew would bring her to complete bliss.

"Neji"

"Open you're eyes."

A/N: I know I stopped before like the really steamy parts but I'm still debating whether or not I should put in a lemon.
