A/N: I don't own Naruto.
Chapter 3
A ray of sunlight flashed in Tenten's eyes and she woke up. She wondered where Neji was. She felt cold without his body cuddled up against hers. She looked over on the ground and saw Neji, shirtless in his boxers, doing pushups on the ground. Without his shirt, she could clearly see all the muscles bulging from his arms, and around his shoulders. She stared for a while, but Neji sensed her staring.
Neji smiled and laid down next to her, still shirtless and in boxers. He hugged her, she smiled and said, "Is school cancelled?"
Neji shook his head, "No, they are excusing you from school until you get better, and me from school because I'm your legs and arms. Sasuke's gonna get me caught up."
Tenten giggled, "Well that's good."
Tenten wanted to hug him back, but her stupid arms wouldn't let her. Neji kissed her up and down her neck for a while, but then got up, took his crumpled clothes off the floor, and walked into the bathroom to get changed.
Tenten had nothing to do. What's the point of laying in bed all day with no use of your legs and arms unless you get someone else to do stuff for you? Neji came back and asked her if she wanted anything to eat.
Tenten shook her head and rolled over to her other side.
Neji frowned, "You have to eat something sooner or later."
Tenten shut her eyes tight and groaned, "I'm not hungry!"
Neji just tisked at her.
Five hours passed and Tenten had been taking naps, or watching Neji train constantly. It suddenly dawned on Neji that Tenten couldn't change without arms and legs, but he didn't want to change for her.
As if Tenten was reading his mind, she moaned, "Neji. How am I going to get changed?"
Neji thought about it for a while, "We'll wait for Sakura to get out of school first and then I'll ask her to help you change…because I'm not doing it."
Tenten smiled and feound nothing to do, so she took another nap. When she woke up, she found herself sitting upright in a chair. She was all dressed in fresh clothes. Sakura had brushed her hair and tied it into buns for her. Tenten thanked Sakura for helping her change and get ready. Sakura smiled back.
Sakura asked her if she wanted to go anywhere.
Tenten thought about it. "Well…let's go to the market, I don't want to eat ramen again today."
Neji and Sakura both nodded and Neji lifted Tenten on his back. She was in the same position as yesterday on his back.
They all walked down to the marketplace where there were several stands selling food, clothes, flowers, etc. Tenten decided she wanted to go to the tea shop, "I hear it's really good there!"
Neji nodded and brought her in, but told her she had to actually eat something.
Sakura, Neji, and Tenten all took seats next to eachother, Tenten in the middle of the three. They all ordered foreign teas, and Tenten ordered a plate of pickled radish to go with it. Three slices, just like yesterday.
Neji shook his head as he fed her, "No wonder you're so skinny."
Tenten smiled as she was fed. It really made things harder to have your food and drinks fed to you, but she didn't mind, so long as it was Neji.
As soon as they finished, they noticed a group of girls enter the tea shack. A group of girls from school that even Tenten recognized. The three ninjas all turned to look at the loud clique entering. Neji cursed under his breath.
As soon as the girls entered, they all screamed, "NEJI!" and ran over to him. Neji looked away, he seemed extremely annoyed. Tenten and Sakura giggled, those were his fangirls. The five girls all had light brown hair, and they were dressed in low camis, and short miniskirts. Sakura looked at Tenten and coughed the word slut. Tenten giggled.
The brown haired girls paid no attention to Sakura and Tenten. They circled Neji and they were all hugging him and asking him if they could go out with him. Neji was still annoyed and didn't look at any of them. A solution came to his mind.
The girls were yelling ontop of eachother, "I want to be your girlfriend!"
Neji finally spoke up, "I'm taken."
The girls stopped and stared at him, "You're…what…?"
Neji stood up and pushed the girls aside. He went to Tenten from behind and wrapped his arms around her waist and started to kiss up and down her neck again.
The girls gasped. They looked at Tenten with incredible hatred as she just sat there giggling innocently. She was very ticklish.
The girls were about to stomp out of the shack when a male figure that walked in made them go crazy. It was Sasuke. The fan girls all screamed, "SASUKE!" and ran over and started putting their hands on him.
They asked Sasuke the same questions. Sasuke didn't know how to get out of this until he saw Neji embracing Tenten. Duh! He thought.
Sasuke spoke up, "I'm taken."
The girls looked hurt, "By who…?" they all said in unison.
Sasuke walked over to Sakura and Sakura fell into his arms. They embraced eachother and made out. The girls had seen enough and walked out of the shack in a bad mood. They held grudges against Sakura and Tenten now.
As the teamaker came out of the kitchen and asked them if they were ready to pay, he stopped in his tracks when he saw the two young couples making out. He slowly backed away, but Sasuke and Neji broke away from Sakura and Tenten. Sasuke paid the whole bill.
"Sasuke, you didn't even order anything though," Sakura said in a reasonable tone as the teamaker happily accepted the money.
Sasuke smiled, "Well I got to hold you, I don't have enough money to pay you back for that."
With that mushy comment, they made out again. Neji smirked, "And besides, the Uchiha's fricken rich."
Sasuke glared at Neji but continued with Sakura. Neji lifted Tenten on his back and Sasuke did the same with Sakura. Sasuke slowly counted to three, and the girls knew what was going to happen. The two girls braced themselves as Neji and Sasuke raced off at top speed. Neji reached Tenten's door a few seconds before Sasuke did.
"But I have to carry a heavier girl than you!" Sasuke complained.
Sakura looked at him, shocked. Sasuke's serious face broke into a smile, "I'm just kidding Sakura."
Then Sasuke looked at Neji again and said, "We will have another rematch someday."
"So be it," Neji simply.
They walked upstairs into Tenten's bedroom. Neji carefully laid Tenten down in bed, and Sasuke let Sakura off his back.
Neji asked why her parents weren't home. She explained that they were out of town for a month on a business trip.
Neji smirked, "So I can doing anything I want with you."
Tenten grinned, "That's right."
The days went by slowly but surely, finally a week had passed. Tenten no longer needed Neji to carry her, and they both went back to school. This was a relief for Tenten because although she liked being with Neji all the time, she was extremely bored just taking naps, watching him train, and going out occasionally. As soon as Tenten was back at school, everyone greeted her warmly, except for all the Sasuke and Neji fangirls. They just sat there all day, watching in jealousy as Sakura and Tenten would get loads of attention from Sasuke and Neji.
One of the first things Tenten noticed was that Daichi wasn't in the class. She sighed with relief and asked Ino, who was sitting right in front of her, what had happened to him.
"Oh, that freak? He was actually an enemy from another village that was supposed to be some sort of kid spy on a mission. Somehow he got enrolled here and did his work. But he got kicked out of our village, so that's all that matters." Ino explained.
Tenten smiled, she was relieved she would see that freak again in the village anytime soon.
The leesson went by quickly, as Tenten was frantically trying to take notes. The subject they were now learning about was chakra control. Oh well, if I don't get it, I can just ask Sakura, Tenten thought. Everyone in the classroom knew that Sakura had amazing chakra control, expecially Sasuke, who was secretly impressed when he saw Sakura walk up to the top of a tall tree by controlling the chakra into the bottoms of her feet.
The bell rang and all the ninjas filed out of the classroom and started to head home. Tenten stayed after school on the field with Sakura. Sakura had promised to teach Tenten about chakra control.
Tenten got all the skills down within an hour, which was very impressive to Sakura.
"You're a very quick learner," Sakura complimented Tenten. Tenten thanked her, and they both went home. Everyone basically spent their whole nights doing homework and then falling asleep. They also couldn't stop thinking about one another. Neji and Tenten couldn't stop thinking about eachother, and Sasuke and Sakura couldn't stop either. The fangirls couldn't stop thinking about how Sasuke and Neji were already taken by two unattractive girls.
Most days, Tenten would sit next to Neji and they would laugh and talk with eachother. Today, this was certainly not the case and Neji couldn't figure out why. It all started like this.
Tenten woke up and got ready. She decided to walk to school this morning, so she did. As she was walking, she couldn't believe her eyes. Neji was making out with another girl. One of the fangirls. Tenten stared at them for a moment, kissing eachother with such hunger. Neji didn't even notice she was there, and she ran off to class, angry. As soon as she got in class, there were four seats open, one of which was next to Neji. Normally, she would've taken the seat next to Neji, but today she was too upset.
There was a seat next to Neji, a seat next to Sasuke, and 2 seats next to the fangirls open. She certainly wasn't going to sit next to Neji. She didn't want to sit next to Sasuke, because she knew Sakura would want to sit next to him. She had no choice but to sit next to one of Neji and Sasuke's rabid fangirls.
Neji took immediate notice of this and raised his eyebrow, was she mad at him for some reason? Sakura also entered the room, scanned the available seats, and took the seat next to Tenten by the rabid fangirls, not even looking at Sasuke when she was walking to the seat. Sasuke noticed this immediately and had the same thoughts as Neji, what's going on?
Neji had also noticed Sakura wasn't sitting next to Sasuke as usual. Neji gave Sasuke a look that asked what was going on. Sasuke shrugged, how am I supposed to know?
