Lee climbed the tree up to Hinata's window and carefully took her inside. She had fallen asleep on the way back to her temporary home. He pulled back the cover and gently lay her down in her bed. He looked down at his angel and moved a loose strand of hair behind her ear. She mumbled something in her sleep and tightly held onto his shirt. He chuckled and sat on the bed. Hoping that she would turn over and let go of him. Finally after a few minutes she did. He stood up, and before he turned to go, he pushed back her bangs and kissed her forehead. Unbeknowst to him, the door on the other side of the room was slowly opening,


Neji sat in the doorway just staring. He had known when Hinata had snuck out, and had planned to confront her about it, but now he was just speechless. He watched as Lee, kissed Hinata's head one last time and then stood up. At that moment their eyes met. Lee's went wide with shock, and Neji glared at him. With out making a sound as he crossed the room, Neji punched Lee hard in the face. Lee stumbled back, holding on to his already swelling cheek. He held up his hand trying to get Neji to pause for a second.

"N-Neji, listen. It's not what you think!"

Lee winced. That was not only a bad choice of words. It was a signed Death Warrent. Neji's glare intensified, and he sped up his blows. Knocking Lee around as much as possible.

"Not what I think! NOT WHAT I THINK! SINCE WHEN DO YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK YOU BUSHY BROWED BASTARD!"

He stopped long enough to take hold of Lee's shirt and pull him close until nose to nose. Neji basically was breathing fire at Lee.

"You want to know what I think? I think the next time you see MY little cousin will be when she visits your tombstone."

He pulled back his fist. He would enjoy beating him within an inch of his life, and then flinging him off the nearest cliff. But before his fist could connect to flesh, Hinata called out to him. The yelling had woken her up, and she had watched the whole fight unable to find her voice. When she saw that Lee could take no more she had been able to force the noise from her throat.

"NEJI! LEAVE HIM ALONE!"

He dropped Lee to the ground. Hinata grimaced. she hadn't meant to shriek like that, but she had had to do something. She stumbled out of the bed and tried to run to Lee's side, but Neji blocked her way. Hinata pounded into his chest with her fist, crying and pleading with him to let her by.

"Please Neji! He needs me! HE NEEDS ME!"

Neji held up a hand to silence her.

"You will not, I repeat NOT see this boy again. It was hard enough watching you throw away your blood for that ungrateful waste of blond hair, and I will not see you do it again for an even more pathetic nuisance."

"No, Neji! I..I L-Love him!"

As the words left her mouth she knew they were true. It had happened so fast, and she had no clue if he truly felt the same, but she did. She loved him. Neji's eyes darkened in fury. The girl in front of him didn't would never know how much those words hurt him inside. Without thinking he slapped her. She stepped back and raised her hand to the red mark on her face. Her mouth was wide open with hurt.

"I thought I told you to be silent! I will make sure that you never see him again!"

"Ne...Nej..."

Neji growled and raised his hand up to strike her again. He didn't get the chance. He was sent spiraling into the wall by the strongest kick he had ever recieved. He left a crater in the wall behind him. When the dust settled he saw Lee, barley able to stay on his feet. His breath came in ragged harsh rasps. Neji stood to his feet and took a running start at him. He returned the kick at sent Lee flying out of the window. Hinata yelled and flew to look out of it. Lee lay unconcious on the ground. Neji pulled her away from it, and threw her to the bed. Glaring at her he turned and walked to the door.

"Don't worry, I'll tell the guards to take him to a hospital, but you won't go to him. I swear, if I even suspect that you've been near that...that...failure, I'll personally rip out his heart. DO YOU UNDERSTAND!"

Hinata nodded. She didn't cry. She wanted. She wanted to so badly, but she didn't. She had to stay strong, if only for a little while. Neji walked out of the door, and the last thing she heard before she burst into tears, was the click of the door's lock.


Naruto wondered aimlessly through the village. He didn't know wether to be relieved or frustrated. Sakura had gone to a medical nin for a check up, and had found out that it was only a false pregnancy. When she had brought him the news he had had mixed feelings. He was depressed that he and Sakura wouldn't be having a child, he regretted everything he had done to Hinata and his heisty decision to go to Sakura, and he felt his heart long for his lavender eyed wife. He ran his hands through his golden locks. What was he supposed to do? Sakura had happily left him to once more persue Sasuke and had left Naruto to suffer with all that had happened. He groaned and took in his surroundings. He was now infront of Ino's flower shop. He took it as a sign of what to do. He went inside. Hoping that she had what he needed.

'I'll win you back Hinata. Even if it's the last thing I do.'

I gave you a lovely love square didn't I? Neji, Lee, and Naruto all after poor little Hinata. What's a girl to do? Well you'll have to wait until next time to find out. If you think I did okay, than review. If you don't think I did good still review Every thing helps!
