Author's note: I kinda cheated … but I mean, Lee has two "E" in his name …

Chapter 5:

E: L-E-E

Lee was a good person indeed. Everyone knew it.

He was gentle, cheerful, strong … a gentleman per say.

He was not a prodigy like Neji. He didn't have a powerful pair of eyes like Sasuke. He wasn't the carrier of a powerful chakra like Naruto. He wasn't like anyone. He was unique, different, but powerful in his way.

He trained everyday. 24/7 (Unless when he was drunk with Gay-Sensei). He wasn't born with strength, he knew that. That's why he'd struggle himself every day to be a worth shinobi to his beloved village.

He also helped people. Old people. He liked to see people happy, because that made him happy.

In the end Lee was just Lee.

But there was something Lee didn't, or couldn't, master.

PMS

He didn't understand PMS. Actually he knew what was PMS because of a biology book Tsunade gave him when he asked her what PMS was.

But the book only explained the theoretical part of it. It didn't explain why, once a month, Tenten would try to murder him and Neji. When he asked Neji (because Neji was a prodigy, he knew everything) Neji just told him to do everything Tenten asked and he'd survive.

Then he went looking for Shikamaru. Shikamaru was a Nara. Nara are genius. Shikamaru is a genius. Therefore he would surely explain what PMS was.

Unfortunately he found Shikamaru in a bad time.

He was walking to the Yamanaka's flower shop. Naruto told him Shikamaru was with Ino, and Ino was always at the flower shop (or at the mall).

When he was going to open the door, he saw a blur running out of it. A blur in a pineapple form. Shikamaru.

Then he saw a yellow blur going after the former blur. Ino.

After a few seconds Ino went back to the shop. Lee, like always, cheerfully greeted her.

"Go to hell, and take that lazy bastard with you" was all Ino said while closing the door and putting the "Closed" plate on it.

Later that day, when Lee asked Shikamaru about what happened, Shikamaru replied with the same monotonous tone "Troublesome PMS."

So he forgot about the subject. He knew he wasn't going to get any answer to his question.

And then time passed by. Still no answer to his question. Tenten trying to kill him once in a month. Neji telling him to obey her. Ino getting crazy and calling boys 'bastard'. Sakura suffocating Naruto once in a while (Lee suspect it wasn't just because of PMS anyway). Temari, when she'd come to Konoha, would always seem angry, but one day Lee felt like she'd stab anyone who'd get in her way.

But there was only one girl who'd never gone crazy, at least not in front of him. Hinata.

She was always so … Hinata. Lee would never, could never, picture Hinata mad.

Even if he didn't exactly know what PMS was, he somewhat thought Hinata didn't have it.

Oh poor Lee … he was quite wrong ….. sooooooo wrong.

And he soon discovered it.

Lee was training alone, beating up some poor tree. The day was pretty. A shy sun in the sky. Animals were still waking up. It was only 8AM, yet Lee was full of energy and wanted to spend it training the whole day.

Then he heard an awkward sound. It was more like a snif … like someone crying. A girl maybe.

Being the ninja he was, he followed the sound making sure no one would notice him.

When he arrived at the place where the sound was coming from he saw what seemed to be a illusion.

There, between tall trees, was Hyuga Hinata crying. Her face red and her hands fisted. And in front of her, a very scared Uchiha Sasuke . Yes. Scared was what Sasuke seemed to be. He was cautious. His hands were raised in front of his chest, and he was talking in a soft calm voice. If Lee didn't have great hearing he wouldn't be able to hear it.

"Calm down, Hina. No need for that. Let's just breath. Follow my lead. Breath in, Breath out. In. Out. In. Out. Come on Hin…"

"Shut the hell up you fuckin' cocky bastard. Why won't you just go "in out" to your fucking mother. Maybe she'll like to hear it from her bastard of a son. Why don't you tell her about the biggest mistake in her life that is you? You should just go fuck off you stupid jerk. Fuck off, fuck off, fuck off, fuck off" Hinata was raising her fisted hands and punching Sasuke's chest. She was actually doing some minimal damage, but Sasuke was showing pain through his face.

Lee couldn't believe it. Hinata, little pure innocent Hinata, was mad. MAD.

And Sasuke, I-am-afraid-of-nothing Sasuke was scared of his little girlfriend. Scared.

"Stop it Hina. Just stop it" Sasuke hold Hinata's hands above her head and pinned her to the tree. "Just calm down Hinata, and let go of what you've been holding". Then Sasuke let go of Hinata's hands and embraced her. She did the same, rounding Sasuke's chest with her arms and started crying like a child.

Lee just observed the scene, with wet eyes. 'What a youthful couple. Their love blossom like the flowers in a sunny day of spring' He thought, wiping away his tears.

"Okay Hina. Now tell me what is bothering you so much". Sasuke said, still embracing his girlfriend. "You can tell me"

"But that's embaras-sing. That is a silly rea-son to cr-y-y" She hid her face in Sasuke's chest.

"You can tell me everything. Please Hina, I wanna know what's bothering. Why were you so angry?"

"I went to the b-akery this morning. But I woke up a little la-te. When I ar-rived the cinna-mons rolls were al-ready gone" She started crying again.

"Everything is alright Hinata. There's nothing to worry about." Sasuke kissed her forehead. "Tomorrow they'll have more. You can buy as much as you want" He embraced her tighter.

"Thank yo-u Sasuke-Kun" Hinata also hugged him tighter. "I'm so-rry for cal-ling you a cocky bas-tard " He kissed her forehead again. "And for your mo-ther too. I hop-e Mikoto-San for-gives me"

"That's nothing. That was the PMS talking" He let go of her waist and took her hand in his. "Let's go to the supermarket. Let's buys the ingredients for cinnamon rolls and do it at my house."

"Ano. Won't Mikoto-San be m-ad?" Hinata was a little insecure

"No. I told you. She loves you like a daughter. She'll even help us if we ask. Let's go Hina"

He pecked her lips, but soon that little peck became a real kiss.

"Let's g-o Sasuke-kun" Hinata said, bright red, after breaking the kiss.

And they headed off the florest.

Lee couldn't believe what he saw. In 10 minutes, little Hinata was mad, than she started crying, and Sasuke comforted her. Then she stopped crying, became happy and they were back to their normal selves …. That was unbelievable. Sasuke was … soft and cute … Hinata was mad … hitting Sasuke.

UNBELIAVABLE!

He froze in that place, while the day went by.

When Tenten showed up late a week later on the training ground, muttering things to herself and soon started throwing kunais at him and Neji. Lee had a brilliant idea.

He approached Tenten and, out of nowhere, he hugged her tight. Then he started petting her head, not noticing her face getting redder with anger.

It has worked for Hinata right. She was PMSsing that time. Tenten probably was now. He would just do the same until she has calmed down.

"Calm down little flower. Just tell me what's bothering you" he kept petting her head.

"Lee … I guess you shoudn't do that … to Tenten. She isn't … calming down" Neij kept a good distance between he and his friends. "I think you should … let go of her … now" He was cautious to his words. Anything could make Tenten angrier.

"No Neji. This is gonna work. This worked for you youthful cou …" He didn't finish his sentence because Tenten kicked his ass and he went flying through Konoha's bright blue sky.

That night Lee had to sleep in the hospital.

Okay, that was easier than I thought. Again, sorry but I couldn't find a perfect word with E and Lee has two "e" in his name.

Hope you guys like it.

Bye
