"Ah, Neji, your glare pains me." Lee joked, pretending to shield his face from the Hyuuga's glower.
Neji rolled his eyes.
"Neji, stop it, it's not his fault." Tenten agreed, smacking him lightly with the back of her hand.
"I'm not blaming him." Neji nodded towards the injured Lee lying on the hospital bed. His leg was bundled up in a fat cast, and was hung up above the bed. The rest of the team was standing around.
"I'm just…just…" He sighed and shook his head.
Tenten patted him lightly on the back. Somehow, her touch made it better; the storm thrashing inside of him settled a notch.
"Don't blame yourself either." She soothed. "It's not your fault."
"I just can't believe I let him go…and what he did…" he glanced over at Lee, who grinned back.
"C'mon Neji! Do you really think a stupid bone fracture could harm me!? Give me a few weeks, and I'll be running around like…like a, like a… Tenten, give me a fast animal."
"A mouse."
"Yeah, like a… what!? Can't you think of something cooler?"
"Gazelle?"
"Yeah, ok. Running around like a gazelle."
Neji couldn't hide a light chuckle.
"At least he's alive and well. That's all that counts." Tenten said.
