Kagome and Neji's date was coming along quite nicely, with Kagome smiling for him, though she was keeping her distance, this was fine for now. She ate as much fish as she possibly could, though not at a fast rate. She knew she had to keep appearance up, he was a Hyuuga after all. He, too, was eating with care, and they both blocked out the whispers that ran rampant through out the restaurant.
After all, the natural genius was known by almost everyone in Konoha.
"When is the Chuunin Exams, Koi-sama?" Kagome asked, as he picked up a piece of pickled radish.
"In a few weeks time, Kagome-san." He answered, pausing before he could pop the food in his mouth. "Would you like to come watch?"
Kagome smiled. "Hai, though Hokage-sama said I should be starting infiltration training soon."
Neji nearly spit out his food. "No."
Kagome frowned. "What do you mean, no?"
Neji's eyes closed as he picked up a piece of pork, placing it on some rice. "I know what infiltration training consists of, Kagome-san, I will not allow it."
Kagome sighs. "Oh? And how would you know, Koi-sama?" She asked, snatching away his meat and popping it in her mouth. His eyes opened and narrowed at her.
"My mother had gone through it, Kagome-san."
"And?" Kagome asked, lifting her nose in the air.
"We will talk of this later, when not too many ears are listening, Kagome-san."
Kagome smiled, mask slipping into place easily enough. "Hai, Koi-sama! I look forward to our conversation." Her green eyes closed and he could see the subtle twitch in her eyebrow.
Yup. She was pissed.
