“O-Oh hi,
Neji,” Tenten stuttered as she stared at the beautiful boy. More people started
coming up to the door, and Tenten’s friends abandoned her to be good hostesses.
“Hey,” was
all that Neji said. He’s so cool,
Tenten gushed as she covered her face and looked away.
Neji and
Tenten stood there staring at each other for a while, before Neji finally spoke
in that same cool tone that Tenten was growing so accustomed to like. “Want to
get some beer?” Neji asked her as he motioned with a jerk of his head towards
the kitchen. Tenten quickly nodded and followed him, not wanting to lose him in
the forming crowd of people.
When they
reached the kitchen, Neji poured two beers and gave one to Tenten, then he
asked her to sit with him. She immediately complied and rushed to join him on
the couch before any girl could steal him.
Neji sipped
his beer and he looked to Tenten, once she took a sip, she immediately felt
more at ease. She decided to strike up a conversation, “So, what position do
you play in football?” she asked, trying to butter him up.
“I play
wide receiver and safety on defense,” Neji told her. Tenten frowned, either he
was shy or he didn’t want to talk to her.
“Oh how
cool! So you play either way. Whether its defense or offense,” Tenten chimed as
she shot him a friendly and disarming smile.
“Yeah…”
Neji plainly said, he looked down at the cup of beer and he took another sip.
Tenten
followed suit and took another sip of her beer as well, suddenly she felt bold
and stupid and she confronted Neji, “Do you not want to talk to me? Because I
can go somewhere else if you don’t want to,” she declared as she stood up to
leave and started maneuvering between him and the coffee table to walk away.
Neji looked
up at her wide eyed, like he was afraid to be alone. “No—” he objected. Tenten
turned around with an eyebrow raised at the beautiful boy. “I just…” he
murmured, Tenten still looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
“You what?”
she sassed. Her arms were crossed now and she was tapping a fringed boot at
him.
“I… I just
get nervous around pretty girls,” Neji revealed. He looked away from her
blushing and Tenten smiled in triumph.
“Well in
that case, let’s talk some more,” Tenten suggested as she maneuvered her way
back to the couch. Suddenly Tenten felt her body fall and she fell right into
Neji’s lap and her lips were inches from his.
Both
blushed madly, “S-sorry, l-lost my balance…” Tenten nervously stammered as she
quickly leapt to her feet and took her correct seat beside Neji.
Neji turned
to Tenten, still blushing and he started a conversation with her about
cheerleading, football, family and hobbies.
The couple
spent most of the night laughing and getting to know each other and Tenten knew
that they were kindred spirits. They both liked the same football team, both
were nervous around attractive members of the opposite sex, and both had an
affinity for math.
As the
night wore on, more and more people kept getting wasted and were making the
environment very uncomfortable for the two.
“Hey, want
to go upstairs to where we can talk in private?” Tenten hinted. Neji leapt to
his feet and followed her with his mouth gaping, he couldn’t believe that she
was doing this.
She lead
him to the guest bedroom, and she immediately placed herself in sitting position
on the bed. Neji closed the door behind him and he joined her in sitting cross
legged on the bed. Tenten pulled up her legs to her chest and continued the
conversation from downstairs.
The two
bantered back and forth and even laughed. After one final laugh, however,
something changed in Neji’s expression. He leaned forward hesitantly and placed
a dainty kiss on Tenten’s perfect lips.
Tenten wrapped
her arms around Neji’s neck when he tried to pull away. She slowly pulled him
down on top of her as he switched to a laying position on the bed. Neji moved
with her without resisting and he had his arms on either side of her head and
he was kissing her.
He kissed
her deeply and prodded at her bottom lip with his tongue, Tenten granted him
entrance and he explored her mouth with agonizing slowness. Tenten grabbed the
back of his head and smashed his lips further onto hers, in an attempt to get
him to stop playing with her.
Neji didn’t
stop the teasing however; he kept exploring her mouth slowly until finally Tenten
fought back for dominance. The two were so entwined with each other that they
didn’t even notice the door open.
“Uh, what
the hell?” Temari broke in. The two jumped and split apart as fast as they
could. Neji sat on the bed staring at his lap, more red appeared on his face
and he started to sweat out of nervousness.
“Uh, hi
Temari,” Tenten quavered. Temari looked from Neji to Tenten, to Neji again
before laughing hardily.
“Never
mind, we’ll go to another room guys,” Temari assured the pair as she started to
walk off under Shikamaru’s possessive arm.
“No it’s
okay!” Tenten interjected. Temari and Shikamaru turned around and gave the
couple an analytical stare. “I have to get home anyway,” Tenten rushed as she
jumped from the bed and rushed her way to the door.
Neji
watched her go before Temari turned to him, “Go get her you idiot,” she
chastised. Neji nodded and bounded out the room and down the stairs.
Shikamaru
laughed as he watched Neji run, “Horny teenage boy,” Shikamaru teased. Temari
just laughed and pushed him in the direction of the guest bed, remembering to
lock the door behind her.
“Wait!”
Neji called as he caught up with Tenten before she walked out the door. She
stopped and looked at him in wonder, “Can I at least have your number?” Neji
asked getting out his cell phone and getting it ready for her digits.
Tenten just
laughed and gave him her number, telling him to text her sometime. Neji eagerly
nodded and gave her a kiss on the cheek goodbye as she walked home.
