Compulsive Notes

Okie, well, here it is, things get pretty intense in this chapter. And neji gets a bit out of charater...but it's all good in the end, this chapter is mainly for Obsessive, and I'll Be Your Lie, because...the ending is for Obsessive, and the chapter is for I'll Be Your Lie, my only constant reveiwer. I dont want to give it away...and poor Gaara, I'm putting him through hell...sorry the chapter is so short, i'll try to write a longer one next time. READ AND REVIEW!!

The door shut promptly behind as I softly closed it. There was no reason to wake Lee, I mean as creepy as he'd shown himself to be, he wasn't the one actually taking the pictures. It was Neji, and he was whom I needed to talk to. Lucky enough for me the clouds finally made their way past Konaha. I sighed looking back at Lee's house, why do all the good ones have to have creepy secrets. I continued walking. When I got back home, it had barely been an hour, but it was cold, so I was ready to sleep. A lot of information had been input into my brain, and I just wanted everything to simmer down before I began to comprehend things completely. I crawled into bed fully clothed, too tired to undress.

The next morning, I was awoken by the blazing red sun in my eyes. Oh how I dreaded waking up today. For the first time in a long time, I wanted to stall. But I knew putting off my problems would do nothing. So I rolled out of bed. I got ready for the day and I set out in search of Neji.

After a nice long walk I arrived at his house. It was hardly morning, so I thought he might be at home. I walked up to the door and knocked as hard as I could, without making my nuckles bleed. After a few seconds, there he stood before me, long flowing hair and all. "What Gaara, I'm kinda busy."

"Doing what?" I said flatly. He mumbled something before answering me,

"Nothing, but still what do you want."

"Are you going to invite me in or make me stand out in the cold?" Over night the cold stuck, and the clouds returned. So now even though it was day, it was freezing outside.

"Fine" Coming in I noticed the nice furniture, which I don't think I would expect from Neji. So caught up in training, you'd this housing apparel would be his last concerns. He had a cup of tea in his hand; he took a sip before asking for the third time "Okay, now, really, what do you want?" Stalling, not really wanting an answer to my question, I took one final breath and opened my mouth, "Neji, I hope you know, that I enjoy you're friendship," I paused, and saw Neji was now shaking, I think he knew I knew, "But, I did discover those photos. And I like to ask you a question about the letter." I could see the shock set into his eyes. "What are you talking about?"

"Look Neji, denying will get you no where. I just want to know, why were you doing that? And what made it so difficult that you needed to stop?" The shaking stopped, and the shock that had set in his eyes was slowly fading. He was back to his old self, and what ever had possessed him before was gone. "Look, all I know is that Lee paid me big bucks to take a few pictures of you."

"But why? And why did it become hard for you?" I put an emphasis on the whole 'for you' part. But he dodged it like a speeding bullet.

"I don't know why Lee want them. He wouldn't tell me."

"Like you're doing now?"

"Huh?"

"Answer the question Neji" He really didn't want to answer this question. And I was getting sick of this. Now I was getting pissed.

"Neji. Answer. The. Question."

"I have to use the restroom." He still showed no sign of emotions. He stood up and walked away. After a few minutes he returned.

"Now, Neji, tell me." He looked up from his tea, still saying nothing. I couldn't take it anymore, he was on my last nerve. I stood up and walked toward the door.

"Because Garra," He paused as I opened the door, "I love you, too." This sure did explain a few things
