They sat in silence for a while as they stare at the fire infront of them.
" I'm a member of the Hyuga clan's branch house and no matter how skilled I became, I would always be in service to the Hyuga's main house, a fact that convinced me fate was predetermined." He started.If it would make her feel better,then why not tell her my side of story too. He thought as he smiled,recalling the time where he lost to Naruto back at the chunin exam.
"My father died when I was young for the branch house which made me held vengeance towards them.I also never miss any opportunity to harm my cousin,Hinata,to take revenge." He clenched his fist as he remembered the time where he nearly killed Hinata.
"Being a rare talented ninja since young,I became arrogant and placed myself above all the ones I believe weaker than me.I shared my philosophy about fate to everyone I met,including Naruto." He stopped to chuckle to himself as he looked upwards.
"I always tell everyone who is trying to exceed their natural limitations or trying to defeat me in combat when they lack any obvious ability to do so to give up on their dreams.And Hinata is not an exception,I told her my philosophy which she answered that my insistence upon destiny was actually the cause of my inner suffering." He sighed as memories came flashing in his mind one by one.
"Back then,I really wanted to prove my self to the main house yet incapable in doing so despite my talent.I never lose to anyone until my match with Naruto."He looked at (Y/n) who's looking at him and listening to his life story.
He chuckled as he raised his right hand and poked her forehead with his two fingers,she rubbed her forehead and groaned,"Was that really necessary?"
He only chuckled at this and settled back to his original position," 'If a failure like me can do this,then think of what a genius like you can do.Stop thinking you can't change what you are.' That was Naruto's exact words he told me when he defeated me in the Chunin Exams."
"Ever since that day,my perspective in life changed.Over time my desire to get stronger became as much as a motivation to never lose as it is to protect my friends and family.That day when he called me genius yet I still lost to a failure like him,I embraced my responsibility as a member of the branch house." He smiled as he unconsciously moved his hands closer to hers which is now on the ground beside her.
"So you're trying to tell me is that,to knock some senses in you,all it took was the fact that a genius like you lost to a failure like Naruto?" She teased her as she laughed,her hands moved closer to his to the point where their skin is now touching.
Their pinky finger had found each other and wrapped themselves together.Neji looked at (Y/n) who is now smiling at him.The gloomy aura around them a while ago is gone and it was replaced by a warm and comfortable feeling.
And of course,this moment have to be interrupted as (Y/n) 's playful character kicks in.She grinned and tugged at Neji's pinky,"By the way Neji,judging from the color and scent of your blood,your a type O,aren't you." She giggled as Neji scrunched his face in wonder.
"Don't you know that there are theories indicating that people with type O blood are confident, ambitious, and competitive. They're also spiteful, arrogant, and easily jealous.Now that I heard your perspective,it turned out that those theories are true." Her smile grew when she heard Neji growled.
She laughed at him as pink hues tinted his cheeks out of embarrassment.He turned his head to the side but soon smirked as he thought of an idea.
Neji pulled (Y/n) on his lap and hugged her waist as he let her straddle him.(Y/n) stared at him with wide eyes as blood rushed to her face.
"W-w-w-what are you doing?!" She shrieked as she tried to be out of his grip.
Neji looked at her with a playful smirk on his face,"Didn't you say that the ones who had O as their blood type are easily jealoused? Well,I'm quite jealous of the ground.You've been sitting on it for quite some time now," He squeezed one of her butt cheek that caused her to squeak,"Why not sit on my lap instead."He continued.
"You perv!" (y/n) playfully hit his shoulder while Neji kept on laughing at her crimson face.He buried his face in the side of her neck and inhaled her scent.(Y/n) calmed down as she started to get comfortable with their position.This is quite inappropriate but I'm kinda enjoying it. She thought to herself as she played with Neji's hair.
"Can you tell me more about your father,Neji?" She asked,being curious of how his relationship is with his father.
His hold on her waist tightened as he pulled her closer."Well,he's strict but gentle at the same time.He always trained me before....well,his death." (Y/n) put his other hand behind his head as she used her other hand to comb his hair,twerling them in her fingers.
"How did he....die?" She unconsciously asked.She then realized it and was about to apologize for being too nosy when he unexpectedly answered her question.
"At first I thought he was forced to be sacrificed for the main house but I soon found out that it is his own will.To die for his brother is the way he die,I guess." He answered.
(Y/n) placed her chin on top of his as she attempted to comfort him which is honestly effective,"He's a honorable man then." Neji smiled at her words as she slightly squeezed her.
A comfortable silence has once again engulfed the two of them as the fire in front of them started to lose it's flames,taking it's warmth with it as it grew smaller and smaller.
"(Y/n)?" Neji broked the silence."Can I rest with you on my arms tonight?I'm kinda cold." He continued.
(Y/n) smiled,he's such a child,she thought.Being lazy to move and finding their position comfortable,she agreed.
As the fire crackled up and finally died down,the soft kiss from her lips was placed on top of his head,followed by a soft 'Thank you'.
