Hey, people! I am so sorry! I've been really busy with these tests at school, and UGH! You understand, right? …right?
Anyhoozers, here's the next one!

"Neji, let go of it!"
"No."
"But it's mine! Please?"
Neji hesitated. He couldn't stand Tenten protesting, but he wouldn't let anyone know that. It was his secret. But the answer remained the same: "No."
"Why do you want it anyhow? It's nothing really special." Tenten inquired, pointing at the item in Neji's arms. They were in Tenten's house, and they'd just finished lunch.
"Because."
"Because…?"
"…"
"Neji!"
Neji stared at the object in his arms. Why in the heck did he want Tenten's teddy bear anyhow? It was as Tenten said, that it wasn't anything special. So why?
Tenten sighed. "Neji, Lee gave that to me two years ago; it's really important to me. Now please give it back?"
Neji growled inwardly. Lee gave her that teddy bear? Now he had second thoughts. He wanted to rip the thing in half and kill it with his Jyuuken. Sudden change of hearts much? His hold on the teddy bear tightened.
Tenten saw Neji stiffen visibly. Although she and Neji had spent their childhood and training days together, she still couldn't read his facial expressions that well. "Neji, give it to me?"
"…No." Oh, boy. He was going to tear Lee apart and stomp all over him…
"Neji!" Now THIS expression Tenten could read clearly. It was similar to the expression when Lee had nagged him nonstop. Apparently, Lee turned black and blue by the time Gai-sensei had arrived from a showdown with Kakashi. Well, Neji had to live through a long lecture from Tenten about the…hm. He couldn't seem to remember. The only that he could recall was Tenten…and of course her ravishing face when she crinkled her nose –
Oh boy. Bad, bad Neji.
Tenten explained: "Lee gave that to me for my birthday, and it was the first thing he gave to me when we became teammates! That's why it's important!"
Neji relaxed slightly. Oh. So that's why.
Tenten gave Neji a weird look. "Why did you want it?"
Neji blinked. "Because it smells like you…" he muttered, saying his thoughts out loud.
Tenten widened her eyes and looked away, trying to force her blush down. She didn't succeed in doing so.
Neji noticed this and eyed her. He'd never really noticed her looks until now. Tenten never wore any makeup, but she looked prettier that she would be if she's decided to put any on. She had a bit of muscle from training, and best of all, she wasn't one of those screaming fangirls who screamed, "NEJI!!" every second.
Tenten tried to say something. "Uh…Neji? Shouldn't we…go train…now?" Tenten gently reached for her teddy bear. Neji stood up, dropped it, and looked into her eyes.
"I've decided…that I don't like this thing anymore."
Tenten was puzzled. "But…why?"
Neji moved a strand of hair away from her face. "Because…I don't anything fake."
Tenten couldn't understand. "Fake?"
"I prefer…the real thing." He said this quickly and kissed Tenten's hand, breathing in her scent of green apple.
Tenten shivered as Neji looked deep into her eyes. She smiled nervously before Neji's lips met her own.
Neji shuddered in pleasure, a rare emotion for the prodigy. 'Yes…' he thought. '…the REAL thing…'
