I realized I did not do a one-shot based on Valentine's Day and I decided I should, you know, for the sake of it. I tried to make this as humorous as possible. I just pictured myself as an omniscient character watching Team Gai on Valentine's Day. TA-DA!
It was the dreaded time of year for Team Gai.
It was the time of year when Gai and Lee replaced their green spandex with pink spandex.
It was the time of year when Gai and Lee gave a flower to every woman in Konoha.
It was the time of year where Neji and Tenten, the remaining members of Team Gai, went insane.
Neji and Tenten were at the usual training grounds.
"Please let someone destroy their calendars! And please don't tell them what today is!" Tenten begged Kami. [I do this all the time on days I have tests and stuff. Beg God to let them forget.
Neji lowered his face in his hands, "That won't happen. And worse… they're late."
Tenten rolled her eyes, "They're ALWAYS late on Valentine's Day!"
Slowly Tenten and Neji turned their gazes towards the pink bushy-eyebrow, spandex wearing twins, Gai and Lee. They twitched. In their hands were roses. Baskets of them.
Tenten took Neji's hand, "RUN!" as the duo took off into the forest.
"Gai-sensei! I could have sworn I saw Tenten and Neji here!" Lee said.
"Genjutsu!" Gai said.
"Yes, Gai-sensei! That is the only reason why! When we approached the genjutsu must have worn off because of our youth!"
Neji and Tenten were deep within the forest surrounding the training grounds.
"Think we lost them, Neji?"
"BYAKUGAN!"
"They are gone…"
Suddenly out of nowhere…
Gai appeared. "Neji! Tenten! You have a mission!"
"…"
"HELP LEE AND I BAKE CUPCAKES!"
Gai and Lee grabbed Neji and Tenten and dragged them to Gai's kitchen.
"There! We're done, Gai-sensei!" Lee said.
Neji and Tenten were exhausted.
Giving a rose to every woman in Konoha.
Giving a cupcake to every child in Konoha.
Giving a card to every Konoha citizen.
Gai and Lee were INSANE.
Or just super-caring people.
As Neji and Tenten leaned into the trees of the training ground, they knew Valentine's Day for the team was mayhem… again. It always was.
"That… was… MAYHEM!" shouted Tenten.
"Yes." Neji said.
"I wonder how Gai and Lee get all their energy…" Tenten wondered.
Neji smirked, "Apparently from youth."
Tenten held her head in her hands, "I hate Valentine's Day."
Neji smirked back and took her cheek, leaving a chaste kiss. "Me too."
But at least we are together.
Slight Nejiten. Mostly a Team Gai fic though.
