Waiting for a Yes [Modern!Neji x Reader]

PART 20

Neji returned home around the time his family was having dinner. He didn't join them, instead he escaped to his room and plopped on his plush bed. He stares up at the ceiling, his thoughts of [Name] rose to the surface of his mind like it always did.

She's slipping away from me. He thought. She thinks I'm in love with someone else.

A gentle knock came at his door and in came Hinata. She smiled upon seeing him.

"Hey Neji, you're not hungry?" She asked.

"No."

There was a moment of silence and then Neji felt his bed sink.

"Neji, I know it's none of my business—"

He interrupts. "Then why are you asking?"

"Neji I'm worried, that's why." He hears a sigh leave her lips. "Your mood has become worse and worse, and I know why but—"

She pauses, trying to find the right words to say. Another sigh escapes her as she places her hand on his knee.

"Neji, I know how it feels when the person you love is completely oblivious to the fact that you're deeply, and mindlessly in love with them," she says. Her train of thought goes off the rail for a second. "Who is it? It's tearing me apart Neji. I want to know who's the person that's making The Neji Hyuga a lovesick mess."

Neji considered answering honestly, but decided against it. He wanted to keep his secret to himself. This wouldn't hurt anybody right? Right?

Instead of staying silent, he said, "I like Tenten."

He likes Tenten, but he didn't love her like he loves [Name].

Hinata froze once the name slipped into her ears. The sweet, hardworking, tomboyish girl has wormed her way into Neji's heart. She could hardly believe it, even though it made so much sense.

"Why don't you just ask her out?"

Neji was the one to sigh this time. "I'll get rejected."

"You're The Neji Hyuga! Every girl at that school has a miniature crush on you and wouldn't turn you down if you asked them out," she reassures him.

"No. I just — I can't, okay?" He scoffs, shaking his head. "Just leave it alone."

"Fine."

Hinata stands up and leaves the room. Although she said she'd leave it be, her mind was already made up.

Hinata Hyuga was going to hook Neji and Tenten up.

...

The sexiest thing about Gaara according to [Name] was, well, absolutely everything. From the wild look in his eyes to his sexy happy trail to his weirdly cute feet. She could admire his body all day.

Gaara was currently slouched over, his eyes glued to the TV as he slurped up chow mein into his mouth with chopsticks. His eyes glanced over at her twice before he said, "What?"

"Nothing."

"Did you want some?" He asked, offering her the chow mein he was eating.

"No thanks. I'm fine."

Her smile never left her face as she continued to stare at her boyfriend which eventually caused him to put down his food and turn towards her.

"What [Name]?" He says. "Is there something on my face? Do I eat funny? What's wrong?"

She shrugs her shoulders. "It's really nothing."

"Are you sure?"

She giggles. "You're just so sexy. Why haven't I noticed before?"

This made Gaara sputter and a dark blush rose to his cheeks.

"Wh-What? I'm not— I can't be... Y-You really think I'm sexy?"

She nods, scooting a bit closer to him. "You're even cuter when you blush."

Gaara knew he was losing at this flirting game. He had to somehow get her back and embarrass her twice as much.

He smirks, pulling her closer until their hips pressed together. "What do you like most about me?"

His fingers made trails on her inner thigh while he rested his chin on her shoulder. When she didn't answer, he continued to speak.

"'Cause I like your smile and your beautiful [color] eyes. I like the feel of your skin, and especially the taste of it." Gaara licks up her neck, causing [Name] to tense up from the unexpected touch. She hums out his name as he bit her neck softly. He chuckles and says, "I definitely love the way your angelic voice calls my name."

[Name] moaned quietly as Gaara left a hot trail of kisses up and down her neck. Her body felt as if it were on fire. She wanted him to touch her more, to kiss her all over her body.

Her breath came out ragged and heavy. There was a fire in her belly that only burned brighter with every touch, and she wanted Gaara to put out the flames. Her core ached each time he grazed her inner thigh. Shocks of electricity ran rampant throughout her body. Her mind blank and her body craved every bit of him.

She pulled him down on top of her, having him settle between her legs. He attacked her neck again, nipping at her sweet spot. She dug her hands into his red locks, holding him there, and moaned his name softly. This only encouraged him to continue.

Little did she know that every kiss, bite and suck, left a purplish blemish on her once pure skin. His trail of kisses lead up to her chin and stopped there.

Gaara hovered over [Name] and admired his handy work. Their breath mingled together as he rested his forehead on hers. She gripped his shirt, pulling him down towards her.

And they had their first kiss.
