─◌✰್ chapter twenty six ;; failed apologies

✧ ೃ༄*ੈ✩ I'm just mad. ✧ ೃ༄*ੈ✩

"Alright, so, you two have to make up. Shikamaru, apologize. Neji, apologize." Naruto said.

"What the fuck do I have to apologize for? Oh, I'm so sorry I beat your ass because you can't keep your dick in your pants. I'm sorry that you touched my girlfriend and you thought it was cool, yeah, definitely." Neji rolled his eyes.

"Apology not accepted." Shikamaru shrugged.

"Haha. So funny. You should become a comedian and see how nobody laughs at you. Lazy piece of shit."

"Neji, I know you're mad, but you have to let it go eventually—" Naruto attempted to fix things once more.

"Fuck off."

No one had ever seen Neji so mad before, it was scary. He was fuming. A bead of sweat fell down Naruto's temple.

"Stop taking your anger out on everyone else."

"Don't tell me what to do." Neji took the last sip of his soda, crushing the can in his hands.

"Um, maybe if we get Y/n and Temari here—"

"No, Naruto. Those two also have problems." Sasuke cut him off.

"Like an enemy couple..."

"Somewhat, yeah."

Neji sighed. "I can't look at his face anymore, I'm leaving."

"Just don't look at me. Simple."

"Then don't look at my girlfriend. Simple."

"How could I not?"

Neji threw the crushed can at Shikamaru, but he dodged it. Neji scoffed.

"You missed."

"You think I don't know that?"

"Just letting you know that you lost."

"You did too. You lost way worse than me. Why do you think you don't have Y/n now?"

"Cheated. Too bad, though."

"Yeah. Too bad. It's also too bad you got your ass beat."

"It's also too bad your girlfriend let me kiss on her like that."

"It's also too bad I fucked the life out of her and you weren't there to see it."

Shikamaru scoffed. "It's also too bad I got her first."

"She didn't know me when she got you. Anyway, I'm leaving. Seriously this time."

"Wait, Neji." Naruto called out.

"Wait for what?" Neji stood up, walking to the door.

"Don't you want to at least try and—"

"No."

He opened the door and left. Naruto sighed. He tried, it just didn't work. Neji walked down the hallway with his hands in his pocket, attempting to calm himself down. It wasn't working at all. As many breaths as he took, it didn't work. He just wanted to punch something.
