Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Christmas Love ❯ Invaded Privacy ( Chapter 7 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Tenten got up from the ground, limping on one leg because her shin still hurt, a hand on her head, and was currently leaning on the counter for support.
"Oh, my head," she moaned in pain. "It hurts so bad."
The lights were still out and she tried squinting her eyes to make her sight even better. She had long forgotten about her towel falling off of her slim body and felt a cold draft brush against her pale skin. A shiver ran up her spine and she rubbed her arms to try to warm them.
"Ah...so cold all of a sudden."
The sound of the shower could still be heard running; she was too lazy to try and find her way through the darkness to turn it off.
"Why did the lights go out?" She wondered aloud.
Neji rushed out of his bedroom at hearing the sound of Tenten's scream and decided against knocking on the bathroom door and just opened it. He had to make sure she was okay.
"Tenten!" He yelled, a hint of concern in his voice.
From the sudden burst of him yelling, she jumped and slightly screamed again. Losing her balance she fell forward onto Neji who caught her in his arms with a swift grace. She blushed in embarrassment for being so careless and held onto Neji thinking she'd fall again if she let go.
The lights went back on and they both thought the lights going out was temporay already. The Hyuuga looked down to see his teammate okay noticing there was also something wrong about the scene. Tenten was naked. Heat rose up to his cheeks and he tried to close his eyes from such a sight.
But it was too tempting to ignore. Tenten in his arms naked; heck he knew any guy in Konoha would love this to happen to them. She had sure developed a figure since the time when they were both genins. His eyes traced up and down her body.
'Interesting.'
Tenten thought it was best to let go now since she'd probably be fine and able to stand on her two legs without having to lean on something. She backed away to notice Neji staring at her with an odd twinkle in his eyes. She also noted how his expession looked.
"Hey Neji, you're drooling," she pointed out thoughtfully.
"Huh..." was his intelligent reply.
Registering what she said in his mind and gaining the right state of mind back, he wiped his chin and grunted in responce. However, his eyes still lingered on her body. He couldn't seem to control himself.
"What are you staring at?" She eyed him suspisciously and looked down at herself, eyes widening. "Oh my god!"
He gave her a questioning look.
She glanced back up at him, fire burning in her eyes with anger. "You...you fucking pervert! You touched me!"
"I di-"
"Yes you did you liar!" She picked up the towel that had fallen off of her and covered herself with it. "I can't believe you're really like that!"
Neji's eye twitched. "What are you talking about, Tenten?"
"Ah! Pervert, pervert, pervert! Get away from me right now!" She slapped Neji and kicked him out of the room, shutting the door and locking it so he couldn't get in.
He blinked in confusion for a moment. "Tenten, when you are dressed and you come out, we shall begin training." He then walked away.
Tenten sunk down to the floor clinging to the towel. Neji had seen her naked, and he didn't even try to act as if he wasn't checking her out! He could be such a bastard sometimes, but this was worse than anytime before. She never would have considered him a pervert until now. Why had he come in there anyways?
"Men," she scoffed.
After getting dressed she trained with Neji for a while. They did the usual; her throwing weapons at him with precise aim and him dodging them and trying to beat the shit out of her without getting hit once. And of course, he never got hit because of his bloodline, Byakugan.
It was getting late before they stopped to rest and head for bed.
Tenten walked into Neji's room running a hand through her hair which she had let loose due to her headache and the buns being so tight made it even worse for her. Neji gazed at her as she grabbed the wretched bear, whom she called Mr. Snuggle-Bear, and sat on the bed cross-legged next to him.
"So..." Tenten trailed.
"What do you want? He asked coldly, one eye popping open to look at her.
"I want you to sleep on the floor."
First she interrupts him from his meditation period and now this? "Excuse me?" He gave her his full attention.
"You heard me. I want you to sleep on the floor. It's only proper."
Obviously the Hyuuga did not comprehend this. "What are you talking about?"
"I mean, I get the bed and you get the floor. Simple as that. Because I am not sleeping in the same bed as you." She looked at him like he was stupid.
"Then you sleep on the floor, and I'll sleep on the bed. It is mine," Neji argued stubbornly, crossing his arms over his chest.
"But I'm a girl and it would be polite to give me the bed. Besides, you are a gentleman aren't you?" Tenten countered, a smirk playing on her lips.
Neji grumbled. "Why can't we just share it?"
"We won't fit."
"I want my bed."
"You're a boy."
"I'm a teammate. What should it matter? We have to sleep together on missions." Truely Neji didn't know what he was saying and why the words were coming out of his mouth. His brain told him no but his lips moved on their own.
She gave him an odd look. "I guess."
"By the way, get rid of that thing."
"What thing?" She asked confused.
Neji pointed to Mr. Snuggle-Bear, a displeasured frown appearing on his face. "That."
She growled, hugging her stuffed animal protectively. "Why?"
"I don't like it and it's a bother," he stated simply.
"Never."
"Tenten, you're acting childish."
She stuck out her tongue. "I don't care."
"It gives the impression of a weak, innocent girl."
"Well forgive me for wanting to maintain my childhood unlike you who acts as if he never had one."
His mouth twitched, and he closed his eyes to ignore her. "Hn." He hated talking about his childhood considering the terms that his dad died. "Keep running your mouth and see what happens."
Tenten just glared at him. She knew not to say anything more than that or it would turn into an all out war between him and her. She didn't need that right now. Either that or it's sleeping on the floor for her.
"Sorry," she mumbled.
She layed down and situated herself into a comfortable position. She watched as Neji continued to meditate and soon got sleepy enough of getting bored from watching him. A little nap couldn't hurt from a long day she had. It was late and she knew she'd be waking up early the next morning.
Neji grunted, finally feeling the need of sleep trying to overcome his body. He lay beside her, staying as far away from her as he could which was almost impossible for how small his bed was. He sighed inaudibly and turned off the lamp. Just as he was about to go into dreamworld, he felt a heavy weight roll over on top of him.
Slender arms encircled around his neck and a light moan escaped the figure's lips in content. Tenten snuggled into the the Hyuuga, her stuffed animal slightly seperating their bodies. He grabbed the damned bear and threw it across the room.
'Damnit! I knew this would happen! Stupid girl,' Neji mentally cursed.
He thought if he stayed perfectly still afterwards Tenten would let go and somehow magically roll of the bed. It would be like the tv show Hanabi watches early in the morning where a man would freeze all his movements so an emu would not peck his eyes out with vengence of the man taking it's egg.
Of course, that was a tv show and this is real life, so it wouldn't happen like he planned. Tenten had entangled their legs and had her face nearing his sometime while he was thinking. Now in this predicament, Neji did struggle. He gently tried to pry her arms from around his neck but it failed miserably.
"Oh Neji," Tenten murmured softly in her sleep.
'She's dreaming about me?'
"You jerk!"
'...what the hell is she dreaming about?' Supposedly, it must have been something he did bad to her.
"Stop being such a tease..." Her hand cupped his cheek and she began leaning forward. "Just kiss me already, damnit!"
Neji's eyes widened at this statement and the distance closing between them. Before he could comprehend anything, Tenten's lips were pressed firmly against his for a few moments and then pulled away laying her head on his chest. The Hyuuga was stunned to say the least.
'She kissed me,' were his thoughts.
He found his arms, against his body's objections, lightly wrapped around her waist. He looked down at the brunette wanting to run his hand through her hair to see what it felt like. In which, he did.
'Her hair...it has a silky feeling...' He pulled her closer to him. 'Does Tenten like me?'
For a while, he thought about this.
Neji lay me down on the bed in a sweet and loving manner. His lips brushed mine with love and desire in a deadly mixture. His hand slid down from my shoulder to my hip, feeling every curve. My body rose to his touch involuntarily and a sigh escaped my lips.
His body rubbed up against mine lightly as he repositioned herself to have a better angle for kissing me, which he did. His kisses were light and loving, with passion behind them. I felt warmth spread all over my body.
“Tenten,” he breathed, “you are so beautiful.” His lips were centimeters from mine and I could taste him.
“Oh, no, I-” I shied away.
“No,” he shushed me sweetly, “you are so beautiful. I mean...” he looked at me with an awe in his eyes that I had never seen before, “...you are so amazingly beautiful.”
Then the dream went on in her mind and she didn't want it to stop. Because at least in her head she could make anything she wanted happen. Anything at all. Including the neverending dream that would probably never happen in the reality she lived in. And she hoped that no one would disturb her.
Everyone had their own imaginary world that they escaped to. Her lips curved into a smile. This was her fantasy.
Day 6
Neji turned his head side to side, trying to escape the prying sun ray seeking hhim out. The dark haired boy was aware of another weight on top of him. What ever it was, it had soft, gentle curves, and it was breathing.
He mulled the thought over in his mind, and came to the conclusion that to see what it was, he would have to open his eyes. This action, he thought, may also relieve himself of the damned sun ray from hell. A light purple eye popped open.
Neji moved his arms and found one was wrapped around the soft weight seemingly sleeping along his side. He hugged the weight for a few seconds with his one arm, letting his eyes adjust to the afternoon light filling his messy bedroom.
A soft sigh escaped his lips and he moved his right arm to pet the head of the weight, feeling the silky hair run through his fingers. Last night suddenly rushed up in his and Neji snapped his head down.
'There was someone in my arms? This is a dream...right?' He closed his eyes hoping that it was.
There was Tenten, his beautiful Tenten, sleeping peacefully next to hhim. One of the beauty’s arms was limp over his torso.
He halted his thoughts. 'Since when was she mine? This is starting to get out of control.' He then froze when Tenten stirred.
Brilliant pupil-less eyes opened again and looked down to be met with unblinking chocolate ones. A shiver of surprise swept up through his tall frame. It was an awkward moment between them. Or rather, completely strange.
"Oh, my head," she moaned in pain. "It hurts so bad."
The lights were still out and she tried squinting her eyes to make her sight even better. She had long forgotten about her towel falling off of her slim body and felt a cold draft brush against her pale skin. A shiver ran up her spine and she rubbed her arms to try to warm them.
