G/N: Oh... my... GOSH! Where did I come from? From my mother's womb of course but, that's beside the point.
Hey guys, I'm back and badder than ever! I was going to write a summer series, but of course that was a bust. It will be out whenever because appearently, I can't keep promises. This is the 5th chapter of Tenten 101 FINALLY! It's been almost... I don't know how many months but a long time! I have some spelling and grammartical mistakes in earlier chapters but I really don't feel like typing ALL of that again, so deal with and fill in the blank or spell something for me. While you're at it, read my other stories as well, there are some MAJOR jacked up stuff over there!
What I've noticed that some of my writing is a bit volgar, so I've decided to tone it down. I don't write like that, like, at ALL! So from now on I'm going to be a bit more reasonable and romantic in this one with just a tad of volgar! :P Well, enjoy!
But let me catch you guys up: Tenten 101 is a spoof of the Animal Planet show, Dogs 101, so in this story we will learn about cats... no, I mean dogs. Always get those two mixed up, but anyway. I've been writing more and getting more ideas from the Great Beyond and slightly less funnier jokes so, enjoy all of the 2012-2013 stories they will be wild and crazier! I'm more mature now so no more dick jokes or gay sex or whatever because that's not what Naruto's about. It's about friendship when you need it the most, love when hate is all around, and freakin awesome ninja moves! I know there are worse stuff than Gwen's Series out there, but I'm just stating the obivious.
Disclamier: I do not own Naruto.
Chapter 4: Play with Two Dogs with One Ball
Have you ever tried to sneak into someone's house without waking up their attack dogs, or tripping the alarm system? That's how Neji felt as he tiptoed up the walkway towards the sliding doors.
"Damn," Neji thought to himself, "I'm glad Tenten called ahead of time but, Lord Hiashi probably got the wrong idea about why I was over there so late." He walked up silently to the front door and pulled out his house key. Only then, in the heat of the moment, did he realize how many keys he had. Neji filpped through keys to things he didn't even know you're suppose to have locks too!
Key to my room... key to my bathroom... key to my Reese stash... key to my Meanie Babies collection... key to the shed... Squid Girl keychain... key to my locker- here it is!
Neji stuck the key into the lock as quietly as he could without waking up the entire village. He used his nail to slowly slide the door to the side and slip through the world's smallest crack. Once he was in, he slid the door back and breathe a sigh of relief... until he quickly sucked it back in when the lights turned on.
"Where have you been, Neji?"
What, no honorific? Neji knew he couldn't escape now, so he just turned and faced his uncle with a bored expression "I was at a friend's house returning her lost dog." Neji brushed passed him, but Hiashi grabbed his shoulder.
"I heard. But, what took you so long to get back here. Did you run into any... distractions?"
Neji pushed his hand away. Yes. "No." he said blankly.
His uncle smirked down at him. "Are you sure that she didn't... try anything, with you?"
No. "Yes." Neji knew exactly where this was going. Whenever Neji stayed out late doing whatever, Hiashi always, and I mean, always, asked him the same question: Did you lose your virginity? Even if it was indirectly, the pervert knew what he was doing to him mentally.
Neji shook his head. "Hiashi-sama, I did not have sex with Tenten, okay? So you can stop asking me." He bit his bottom lip. I should'nt have said that, it's just that he keeps poking and prodding me to, so it just slipped out... sort of.
His uncle twerked an eyebrow. "Hwww, so you stayed long enough to get her name?" he smirked.
Neji snorted. "Uncle, I apologize but I have some homework and get this stupid essay typed up." Every word he said just got him deeper and deeper into his uncle's crazy imagination.
Hiashi smiled slightly and stepped aside so his nephew could go to his room. "Now if you don't mind," Neji turned and pulled his shorts up, "'Am going to take a shower."
. . .
What happened the next day was a total surprise.
By the time Neji sat down in his seat, he was 10 minutes late. The homeroom teacher shook her head and took roll call. Same old students said their same old names and got their same old check marks. But the one person who doesn't say their name in the morning is Tenten. Tenten never comes to school in the morning. I mean NEVER. She always comes 5 minutes after the first class and sleeps for the rest of the day. But today, she was front n' center, clean n' cut. Even the teacher had to look back at the book to make sure she wasn't a new student!
"Well then," said the teacher, closing her attendence book, "so glad to see our very own Tenten to finally join homeroom for once."
Tenten gave an awkward smile and jittered a little. "I just decided that this morning was going to be special." She looked at Neji out the corner of her eye. What's with that look? Neji thought to himself. Tenten smiled her usual smile at him and faced the front. He could've just melted in that smile... but, he still had his supisions about her, so he just paid back attention to the teacher.
When the first bell rung, Tenten nearly knocked everyone down when she bolted out the door and down the hall.
"No running in the halls!" The homeroom teacher yelled at her as Tenten ran and turned a corner on one foot. "What Am I going to do with that student?" The teacher said to herself.
Neji shook his head and gathered his books. What Am I going to do with her?
The classes that day flew by and each was a surprise.
Tenten raised her hand in each class for each question. Neji was so dumbfounded by this that he couldn't consentrate on any of his work and made a C+ on his Biology quiz.
"I am very disappointed in you, Neji-san," his teacher told him, "you should study more and sleep earlier." He walked away shaking his head.
Neji just looked down at his paper. If only I had said 'no' to go in her house, I would've had time to study instead of taking that shower...
"Neji-kun?" Neji was quickly snapped out of his thoughts. He turned around and saw Tenten with a conserned look on her face. "You okay? I hope you don't see it as my fault you got a bad grade." She bowed her head.
Oh crap. "No, not at all," he put his hand on her shoulder, "it's just that I had to type up an essay for history class and I took a shower. Do you know how long it takes to dry this hair?" He said sarcastically.
He meant it as a joke and she took it. She laughed a little and pushed him playfully. "Riiiight, drying your hair." She winked at him and gave him a warm smile. They stayed like that for a few more seconds. Neji could see his own eyes dancing in her own, smiling right back. A warm feeling filled up inside him, and in Tenten also. Neji unknowingly smiled at her and started rubbing her arm.
Tenten blushed slightly and put her hand on his to stop the soothing sensation. The warm smile disappeared. "Umm... Neji-kun, I-I can't..." she trailed off for a moment, looking down and shaking her head slightly. Neji slipped his hand back to his side and mentally slapped himself. Why would you do that you idiot? Tenten does'nt even have those feelings for you, ignoring the events of yesterday at her door... or does she? Neji just nodded his head at her silence, not entirely wanting to tell him what's going in inside her head.
The bell rung for the end of the day and all of the students packed up their books and ran out the door, ready for the weekend... all but one.
Neji had to talk to the teacher about extra credit he could do for the bad grade he got. He gathered up the work and walked towards the door... but stopped. He could tell Tenten was on the other side, pacing nervously and whispering to herself. As soon as he stepped out, she looked up with a small smile and put a hand in her hair to smooth it down.
"Hey Neji-kun, I wanted to ask you something." She stood in front of him, he could tell she was anxious about something, but what? After a couple of seconds without him answering, she just let it out. "Will you go running with me tomorrow?"
Neji felt his heart drop. He was more expecting an outing or dinner... or date. He closed his eyes for a second to think about it, then said yes. Tenten let out a shout of excitment and ran into him for a hug. Both were surprised by the warmth of the embrace. Neji wrapped his arms around her waist automatically, putting his face in her hair smelling it. He could feel her arms tighten around his neck comfortably, the side of her face pressed against his neck.
Right now, Neji didn't care how he even got into this situation, hugging her tightly against his body feeling her warmth. All he cared about was her. The real her, the dog loving flirting girl that she was. He liked that about her ever since their younger days of the Academy. Over energetic, confident, humorous, smart, beautiful, and a master in weaponary! She's the whole package but, there was something she was hiding from him, he just didn't know what... till now.
Her hair smelled of pomegranate, compared to Neji's peach one. Okay, they were out of his favorite conditioner so he had to buy the only one they had which was sunset peach. Neither one knew how long they were hugging until Tenten spoke. "About last night... I didn't mean it," she was speaking softly into his ear making sure he heard every word she had to say, "you are pretty cute." She withdrew from the hug and kissed him.
