Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.

A/N: at least the Neji birthday fic turned out pretty good. Thank y'all for the reviews!

The third prompt from TP.=)

-:-:-:-Heads or Tails?-:-:-:-

Prompt 3: Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies.

"Finally…" Tenten whispered as she laid her head on the tree.

She and Neji had just finished sparring and it felt good to finally rest.

"Neji-kun! Tenten-san!"

The weapons mistress turned her head in time to see their other teammate, Lee.

Neji's eyes twitched in irritation as he watched their thick browed teammate run up to them. Just when he finally thought he could rest, Lee HAD to come along.

"Look! Look! Look!" He shouted like a 3-year old. He reached them, panting, and raised his hand.

Tenten squinted her eyes just to see what he was holding up. "A coin?" She asked, curiously.

"Yes Tenten-san! An old lady gave this to me from my last mission!" he shouted enthusiastically.

"And?"

"She said that this coin is used as a lie detector! All I have to do is ask a question and then toss it, heads if truth and tails if it's a lie!"

Neji scoffed as he started to leave. "I can't waste my time with that coin." He murmured.

"No! Neji-kun! Don't go!" Lee shouted, stopping him.

Neji turned around and raised his eyebrow. "Why not? What else do I have to do here?"

"You need to watch this magically youthful coin show its power!"

"Power? Did you even try it yet?"

"No."

"Then how do you know it actually works?"

"I'll show you!" Lee said, grinning brightly.

Neji rolled his eyes as he watched Lee turn to Tenten.

"Our dear, youthful flower… are you ready for my question?"

"I guess so." Tenten said, shrugging.

"Do you admire Tsunade-sama?"

"Of course!" Tenten said as she shook her head in irritation. What a question.

Lee flipped the coin eagerly and watched the silver object fall to the ground. He moved closer, bending his head to see it clearly.

"Heads! And it is true." He shouted happily. "I told you it was powerful!"

Neji smirked as he saw watched his teammate grin smugly. "Just was just pure luck. Besides, EVERYONE knows that Tenten admires Tsunade-sama… Why did you have to ask her that?"

"I couldn't think of anything else…" Lee said, scratching his head.

Neji sighed in frustration. "I don't have time for this…"

"Wait! Neji-kun! I've got another question!" Lee shouted.

"Fine." Neji said, tired of all the nonsense.

"Do you like spicy food?"

"Yes." Neji said, purposely lying to check the coins…"power".

Lee flipped the coin again and went to it eagerly when it fell.

"Tails!" He said, turning his head to see Neji. "Was it correct?"

"Hn." Neji grunted. He didn't expect the coin to yield another correct answer. "Another lucky incident." He said, refusing to believe.

"Maybe it is what Lee says it is." Tenten said, looking at the coin. She didn't really understand how, but maybe for once, Lee was right.

Neji turned his head towards the kunoichi. It was the first time Tenten disagreed with him. Usually, she would always agree to what he said. But why was she backing Lee up now? Everybody knows that a coin can't just detect lies.

"Hai." Lee said, nodding. Happy that one of them finally believed him.

"I'm still not convinced." Neji said, stubbornly.

"Let me try." Tenten said, taking the coin from Lee. "I'll ask you." She said, facing Lee.

"Hai." Lee said, nodding his head. "I am ready for any youthful question that you will ask."

"Who do you wish to fight more, Naruto or Neji?" Tenten knew that Lee's lifelong wish was to be able to fight and defeat Neji. But she remembered Lee telling her that he wished to fight Naruto, too, even more than his urge to fight Neji.

"Naruto-kun." He answered, surely.

Neji smiled. He knew about Lee's wish to fight Naruto. And he knew that Lee wasn't lying either. Surely, the Lee and that dumb coin wouldn't be as lucky as it was.

Tenten looked down curiously at the coin she just flipped. Heads. "Correct again." She whispered.

"Yosh!" Lee shouted happily, grinning. "Are you convinced now Neji-kun?"

"Hn." Neji answered again.

Lee smiled as he looked happily at Tenten. "Let's ask each other more questions and convince Neji-kun, my dear flower!" Lee said.

Tenten sighed. She didn't want to irritate Neji but it was pretty fun to see if that coin really was "magical."

Neji watched as Lee and Tenten asked each other questions. He didn't want to admit it, but maybe, for once, Lee was right.

After 5 more questions, the coin was STILL right.

Lee looked over smugly at Neji.

"I guess the old lady was right…" Tenten whispered, shrugging.

"Hn." Neji said, again. He was so used to Tenten agreeing to every word he said that he felt slightly irritated that Lee was able to convince her to agree to him. Though he never told her, he always thought of her as more than just a friend. He even wanted to tell her how he felt but he never felt brave enough. He was scared. Scared of losing her.

"Ask me a question." Neji said, surprising Lee. "A question you don't know the answer to."

"Hai." Lee nodded, determinedly. He stared quietly at Neji. A question he didn't know the answer to? But they always told each other everything. He knew everything about Neji… Everything except…

Lee smiled and walked closer to Neji. "Do you like Tenten?" He asked, earnestly. Tenten once told him about

Flashback.

"Tenten-san, do you like Neji-kun?" Lee asked bluntly when he and Tenten were alone.

"W-what?" Tenten said, blushing furiously. "No! Of course not!" She denied.

Lee smiled warmly at his friend. "Don't worry my dear flower. I will not tell our dear teammate."

Tenten looked down, embarrassed. Lee always told her everything. So maybe… she could tell him how she felt. Besides, Lee never told anybody her secrets.

She sighed as she looked earnestly at Lee. "Yeah… I guess I do like him…"

Lee's eyes twinkled as he hugged her warmly. Finally their precious flower was beginning to harbor youthful feelings towards their teammate.

End of Flashback

Ever since Tenten told him, Lee began to ask Neji too. But every time he did, Neji would just grunt and leave him. Now, finally he had his chance.

Lee looked towards their female teammate, she was blushing furiously and signaling him to change his question. But Lee just shook his head and looked determinedly at Neji.

"Do you?" He asked again after minutes of silence.

Neji looked fixedly into Lee's eyes.

"No."

Lee flipped the coin and looked down at it.

…

…

Heads.

Lee sighed as he picked the coin. For a moment he felt sure that Neji possesed feelings for Tenten… But maybe he was wrong. He looked guiltily at Tenten.

Tenten just forced herself to smile back at Lee's stare. She felt like crying then and there. But she held back. It was the very reason why she dreaded Lee's question. She was scared that Neji woul'dnt like her. But what was she expecting? How could Neji like her anyway?

Neji just smirked as he walked closer to the two. "I told you that coin was fake."

Lee's eyes widened in surprise.

Tenten looked astonishingly at Neji. He was walking towards her. So did he actually…?

"W-what do you mean?" She asked, unsure.

Neji just smiled as he took her hand and held it tightly. "Let's go eat lunch." He said as he pulled her away.

Lee smiled as he watched the two disappear. For once, he was pretty glad that Neji was right.
