Ooooooh, the big kissy-kissy scene! i love doing these! but they alwas turn out mushy. Oh well!

I still don't own Naruto. I don't.

Tenten had no sooner gotten home after being in the nurse's office until 8:00, than Neji showed up at her apartment door. "You never answered my question." He said, standing in the pouring rain. Tenten gave a dramatic sigh and invited him in.

"What did you mean by that, Tenten?" Neji pushed. "I have to know. Now."

What am I gonna do?! She thought frantically. I could always lie. Yeah! "Well, my friends and I were making up fake rumors to, um, spread for fun. Just to bug you!" Tenten didn't even believe herself.

"Lies. Tell me the truth."

Tenten blushed deeply. "Well, I um…" she swallowed, "l-liked you s-since we went t-to the ac-cademy, a-and…" she couldn't keep going. She averted her eyes, and tried to find a distraction, but none came her way.

Neji wasn't making any sound. That was bad. Bad, bad, bad, bad! Horrible! This sucks!

She could feel tears swimming in her eyes, and sank on to the couch. Neji kept standing. I bet he hates me now! And for all of the work I did to cover this up! Tenten put her heads in her hands and sobbed. Neji looked at her, crouched over, crying. Of course, she didn't notice. He sat down.

"I've b-been k-keeping this a secret f-for years!" She choked out, talking to herself. Neji figured she thought he was gone. "I-I bet he h-hates me n-now!"

"No I don't. I don't hate you."

Tenten's head whipped up. "You're still h-here!" she gasped. Neji gave her a half smile. And Tenten was caught off guard.

Neji was kissing her.

Wait. He's… kissing me?! Whoa! Shit! I was not expecting this!

His hands were on her hips. She put hers on his chest, and didn't make one single attempt to pull away. This, Neji was grateful for.

"Urgh…" she groaned. Tenten rubbed her head. What happened last night?

Then she saw Neji, asleep, facing the other way on her couch. She scrunched her legs up and rested her chin on her knees. He was really cute when he was sleeping.

What am I saying! It's bad enough that he kissed me last night- even though I love him- but now he's asleep on my couch?! That's so… slutty of me! Tenten thought. She never acted like this. She would never let a boy sleep with her!

Neji groaned and rolled over. He blinked his eyes open. "Good morning Ten…" he murmured, running his fingers through her hair, which had been pulled out of her usual buns. She blushed.

"Good morning, Nej!" she giggled and stood up. "What do you want for breakfast? I've got cereal, pancakes, waffles, you name it-" She slapped her hands down on the counter- "I can make it."

Neji stood up and walked over to her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered into her ear, "I'd rather get a kiss." He gave her a quick peck on the cheek. "I gotta get home anyway; Hiashi's gonna spaz when he finds out I've been gone all night. Hinata's probably worrying about me, too." He grabbed his keys which he'd thrown on Tenten's table and went out the door. "See you at school?" Neji asked halfway through.

"Yeppers." She answered, not looking up from her pancake batter. "Bye!"

Neji chuckled, and closed the door. Tenten waited a moment to make sure he was far away from her apartment. Then she screamed at the top of her lungs.

"I KISSED NEJI HYUUGA!!"

Okay, this chapter was short. But wait till they get to school!! R&R!
