NejiTen Oneshots And Drabbles

The Proof Of Affection

There are many words that can describe Tenten – kind, caring, beautiful, strong, skilled, and surprisingly, romantically dense is one of them, which Neji had the extreme pleasure of learning it at their latest escort mission together.

The assho- their client, is a blond man of sweet words and sly green eyes and he shamelessly flirts with the young brunette so obviously that even Lee notices, but apparently it isn't glaringly obvious enough for the young girl. It doesn't help that the assho – their client, is not subtle about his ways. At least Tenten manages to counter every single advance in polite, friendly small talk that drives the Hyuuga up the wall.

"I don't really get it Neji," she tells him on the way back home, a small frown on pretty her face. "You've been in a sour mood since we left Konoha and didn't get any better from there. So, are you going to tell me what's wrong with you?"

Both ninja are unaware that Lee picks up his pace in a desperate attempt at escape, his face getting redder with every step.

"What is so difficult to not understand? That man was rather inappropriate towards you and your actions certainly did not help the situation." The Hyuuga grumbles something under his breath that suspiciously sounding like a prayer for patience.

The brunette's brows knit together as she replays the whole mission in her head. When Tenten spends a few too much mulling over, Neji snaps impatiently, "The comment about you hair."

Dawning lights her chocolate eyes. "He said I had pretty hair, Neji. That's not flirting, just, complimenting." Tenten shakes her head. "Really, for a genius, you're a bit dense Neji."

A nervous tick in micro levels forms right under his left eye. A small wave of chakra helps him keep it in control. "What about when our client observed your… flexibility?"

The brunette tilts her head and wonders in such innocent confusion that Neji wants to sigh for the next three years. Or scream. Definitely scream.

"Flexibility is a must for a kunoichi, he just stated the obvious."

Neji stares in disbelief and he inwardly notices how utterly adorable Tenten is with her knitted brows and innocent eyes – and she is looking so lost at his anger and her pouting lips were perfectly kissable –

Neji just gives up.

Neji wishes he could give up.

After the mentally disastrous mission –in Neji's part of course – the Hyuuga comes aware to his feelings towards a certain brunette kunoichi.

Hyuuga Neji has feelings as in a romantic way.

And as if it isn't enough cause of suffering, frustration and headache in general, Tenten manages to occupy not only his every waking moment but also his dreams.

She is beauty and grace as Tenten calls his name, a breathtaking white dress is hugging her form, and his fingers itch to touch the lean form and tanned skin. Her long brown curls reaching her mid back, once free from their usual buns, Tenten is beautiful – out of this world – with her warm smile and even warmer eyes. Her laugh is like a chorus of angels captivating and alluring, and Neji thinks that he can't get any sappier than that. She is even in his inappropriate thoughts and Neji doesn't know how to cope with that fact.
