Ino still glared at me, from time to time, but I have recently come to ignore it. Now all I've been doing is enjoying myself waiting for the masquerade ball. I am going to spend everyday here at my new school with all of the joy that I can. It's been a couple of weeks since Ino has tried anything, which is a good thing, and we have had 4 more people at our table for eating everyday.
I get along with Neji fine and things have gotten better with my classes. What becomes more infuriating though is that I think I have started to get a crush on my roommate. This is not good! At least I'm not the only one though, I think Ryu has a crush on DaniLynn as well, but that's for him to tell and not me.
This morning when I woke up Neji was still sleeping and it was 6, which was weird because he is normally up by now. So I walked across the room and shook him, after I put my clothes in the bathroom, and to my surprise he grabbed me and hugged me, even though he was still sleeping. I tried to get away but he continued holding onto me, man was he strong, I guess this is what I get for not working out.
"Neji, wake up." I said in his ear. He stirred and looked at me and screamed.
"Tenten what are you doing in my arms?" he asked.
"I don't know why don't you ask your arms, you grabbed me while you were sleeping, all I was doing was waking you up." I stated back to him, then I laughed.
"You're crazy." Neji said.
"At least I don't grab people in my sleep and not let them go while I'm awake too." I stated. He looked down, blushed and let go of me quickly. "I'm free hallelujah!"
"Still crazy" Neji stated as he got out of his bed. I ran to the bathroom and stole it before he could get there. "Hey that's unfair."
"Called it first." I stated before shutting the bathroom door, I could hear Neji grumbling something incomprehensible under his breath. I laughed and started getting ready for the day. When I got out of the bathroom Neji was dressed and ready to go. "Wow you couldn't even wait to get dressed, that's sad."
"You took the bathroom."
"Touché," I stated "then you shouldn't get up so late."
"It's not like I meant to." Neji stated as we walked out of the room. On our way to breakfast we stopped at Ryu and DaniLynn's room to get them. Ryu opened the door, dressed and ready to go.
"Hurry up DaniLynn." Ryu called to DaniLynn, who was in the bathroom. She hurried out of the bathroom, her hair still a mess.
"Hold on for 1 more second please." She said as she grabbed a pencil and put up her hair masterfully, you couldn't even tell that she hadn't brushed her hair that morning.
"I need to learn how to do that." I stated out loud, sounding a little stupid at the same time.
"Just continue to put up your hair the way you normally do." Stated Neji. DaniLynn stepped out of the room and joined us and we went to breakfast where all our friends were waiting for us.
"Five more days!" Sakura shouted excitedly.
"Till what?" Faye asked.
"The ball." Hinata stated without stuttering, which was a miracle, I haven't heard her not stutter in a long while, of course Naruto wasn't in the room either, maybe Hinata likes Naruto. I'll leave that for her to tell me, I don't want to make any speculations and get it wrong.
"Oh yeah." Ryu and I stated at the same time.
"They're doing it again." DaniLynn sighed.
"Doing what?" we both asked at the same time again.
"What you just did." Neji stated bluntly. Naruto came bounding in the room acting like he was a cat and someone just gave him catnip.
"What's up with you Naruto?" Ryu and I asked at the same time, again.
"Quit your freaky twin thing and I might tell you." Naruto stated.
"There is not creepy twin thing going on." We simultaneously said.
"Whatever. Anyways I figured out the girl that I want to ask to the ball.
"Who's that Naruto?" Sakura asked. DaniLynn had her hand over Ryu's mouth and Neji had his over mine, so we didn't talk. I licked Neji's hand to get it away from my hand. He looked at me disgusted and wiped his hand on his napkin.
"You're disgusting Tenten." Neji stated.
"Shouldn't have put your hand over my mouth." I stated then I stuck my tongue out at him.
"Noted, continue Naruto." Neji stated giving his attention back to Naruto.
"I wanna make sure that she'll say yes before I tell you guys." Naruto said.
"Party pooper." Sakura said. After this we ate our meals, Gaara and Sasuke turned up a little later, but like always they weren't very conversational. We all left our separate ways and went to class. Neji and I walked in the direction of our classes which were in the same general area. Instead of just going to his class like he normally did he walked me to my class.
"Just like Naruto I have figured out who I want to take to the ball with me." Neji stated as we walked down the hall to my class.
"Who might that be?" I asked when we got to my class.
"You." He stated and kissed me and walked away. Before he got out of sight he turned around and yelled. "Tell me the answer later on!"
A/N: 2 years, I can't believe that it has been this long since I last updated. I'M SOOOOOO SORRY! You can decapitate me soon, once I actually finish this story that is. And I will do that soon.
