(Y/n) and Neji have known each other for years now, and are best friends, but at the same time, they've never met. The author knows what you're thinking: "How is that possible?" Well, the answer to that question lies within this story...
"There's a...
THEY WERE BOTH in a pretty awkward situation now. (Y/n) was staring at Neji while still on the ground, and Neji was staring back. They were both completely dumbfounded.
'Come on, idiot! Snap out of it and say something to him!'
But just as she opened her mouth to speak, Neji held out his hand for her to take. "Here, let me help you up," he said with a gentlemanly smile. (Y/n) flinched, but took it and stood straight.
(Y/n) couldn't bite her tongue and walk away. She had to say something. "I've never felt so strange about meeting someone in person before," she muttered, a soft expression worn on her face. Neji's eyes widened. He didn't say anything, so she continued.
"We've only known each other a few years, but I feel like I've known you my whole life," she said. Neji nodded in agreement. "Fate brought us together," he said with a chuckle. (Y/n) laughed as she remembered the days when he believed in fate.
They stood there in comfortable silence for minutes before (Y/n) noticed she was getting a few dirty looks from some girls. Perhaps she was just being meticulous for noticing something that was so beneath her.
Maybe those glares weren't glares of envy. Although, if they weren't jealous, why would they be mad at her? Was it all possibly because of her talking to Neji? Maybe it's envy.
"Who are those girls looking at me?" she had finally decided to ask. Neji gave her a confused look. "What girls?" he inquired. (Y/n) discreetly nodded her head towards the group of girls. "They look like they wanna dip a dull knife into some bleach and shove it down my throat," she laughed, although she showed a hint of gravity.
He laughed. "I honestly have no idea who they are."
Both of them shrugged it off, but (Y/n) couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with the stares.

A couple hours later, Neji had gone to use the restroom, leaving (Y/n) all alone. (Y/n) was just texting Izumi on her phone when the subject of Neji came up in their conversation.
(Y/n): Btw, I officially talked to Neji tonight ^_^
Izumi: Really? How'd it go?
(Y/n): It went great! We talked for a couple of hours before I texted you
Izumi: Wait isn't Neji that guy Temari set you up with?
(Y/n): No ^-^' Well not rly...
Izumi: Haha well anyways I'll ttyl :)
(Y/n): See ya :)
(Y/n) turned her phone off, and just after she did, she heard approaching footsteps. She looked up and saw the same group of girls that were giving her dirty looks earlier.
