Chapter 11
"Tenten, are you ready?” asked Rin.
"No, not yet," said Tenten in the bathroom.
"Well, hurry up,” said Rin.
"Ok. I'm hurrying,” said Tenten.
"Ok. But if we don't hurry, then we'll be late,” said Rin.
"Finished!” said Tenten and she stepped out of the bathroom. She was wearing a black kimono with red roses on it. Her hair was down, and she had these red rose chandelier earrings on.
"You look so beautiful. Neji will be blushing all night,” said Rin, proud of her work,” So youthful!"
"You sound like Lee there with the last thing you said,” said Tenten.
"How?” said Rin confused.
"Because you said so youthful all excited and that sounds like something Lee would say,” said Tenten.
"I still don't get it,” said Rin, still confused.
"Forget it. So are you going like that?” asked Tenten looking at Rin. Rin wasn't all dressed up like her.
"Oh. I'll change later,” said Rin.
"Ok, well...let's go,” said Tenten excited.
-------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------
"Oh,Neji. Youth is in you!” exclaimed Lee, looking at him, all teary-eyed.
"Hn,"said Neji
"Neji!"said Lee.
"Lee?” said Neji
"Neji!"said Lee.
"Lee?” said Neji.
"Neji,"said Lee getting ready to hug him.
"Don't even think about it,” said Neji and he pushed Lee which cause him to fall.
"Ow, that was mean, Neji."said Lee, on the floor.
"Hey, why are you in your jumpsuit? Shouldn't you be something more suitable to this dinner?” asked Neji.
"Rin said I could go like this,” explained Lee. They both got out of the room
and saw Tenten and Rin waiting for them.
"Wow, Neji looks hot,” thought Tenten when she saw Neji.
"Hi, Neji and Lee," said Tenten nervously.
"At least I didn't stutter like Hinata,"thought Tenten.
"Yosh, Tenten and Rin,"said Lee happily.
"Hn,"said Neji. It was all he could say without sounding like a idiot. He felt like a idiot. His cheeks grew red as he look at Tenten in her kimono which showed her curve.
"I hope no one can tell I'm blushing.."thought Neji.
"Typical Neji. Never saying anything like Hi, or How are you?” thought Tenten.
"Look at Neji and Tenten. They looks so youthful together,” thought Lee.
"Neji's blushing. He can't keep his eyes off of Tenten,"thought Rin.
"Yosh! Let's go,” said Lee, breaking the silence.
"Ok,"said Tenten and Rin.
"But before we go, Rin I have something to ask you,” said Lee.
"Ok,"said Rin. They both moved away from Tenten and Neji's hearing range.
"So what are we going to do?” asked Lee.
"Well...I think they should develop their feelings for each other on their own,” said Rin.
"Ok,"said Lee.
"So Lee-san, don't do anything stupid like last time,” said Rin.
"Hai!"said Lee.
"Come on, guys. Or we'll be late,” said Rin. Neji and Tenten haven't even noticed they left.
"Huh?"said Tenten.
"Hurry up!” yelled Rin. Tenten was the only one who was walking.
"Sure.."said Tenten, and she started walking.
When they entered the dining hall, everyone gasped expect for Rin, who was used to this sort of thing. They were about ten tables and three tables to five outside. You couldn't not seen the tables because of the rose bush.
"Wow,” said Tenten with sparkly eyes.
"Yeah.."said Lee also with sparkly eyes.
"Lee's wierd,"thought Neji, who sweat dropped.
"Can I help you?” asked a waitress who appeared out of nowhere.
"Yes. Our table?” asked Rin.
"Over here,” said the waitress who lead them to a table.
"Neji, you sit there. Tenten, you sit next to him, and Lee you sit on the other side,” said Rin.
"Oh, shit! Now how am I supposed to eat now?” thought Tenten.
"Tenten is sitting next to me?” thought Neji.
"This better work. And if Lee mess it up again, I go crazy!” thought Rin.
"I hope I don't mess up, or Rin will have my head!” thought Lee.
Soon the dining hall was full of people who look important.
"I thought you said a few guests.."said Tenten.
"What? This is a few!” said Rin surprised.
"Why? You feel uncomfortable?” asked Rin.
"Well..kinda of.."shrugged Tenten.
"Do you want to go outside in the garden? There are tables there." said Rin.
"Sure,” said Tenten happily.
"Ok, Neji go with her,” ordered Rin.
Neji replied with a scoff and a "I don't think so.."
"Why not?” pleaded Rin, with sad face.
"Why don't you go or Lee?” asked Neji curiously.
"I have to stay here, because of Izumi. Also I need Lee. Plus, I don't think Tenten wouldn't want to spend the evening with Lee.” explained Rin.
"Fine!” said Neji, and he grab Tenten's hand and pulled her to the garden.
"He's holding my hand!” thought Tenten.
"Oh, God! I sound like a crazy fangirl. Good thing, I said it in my mind,” thought Tenten.
They went past the talking tables and pass waiters and waitress, and arrived in the garden. The sky was dark and full of stars. The air was thick with the aroma of food. The tables were for two people and most were couples. That probably why there were roses bushes that conceal the tables except for the people's heads. Then only the waiters could interrupt them.
"Um...Neji, you can let go out of my hand now,” said Tenten.
"Oh, sorry,"apolized Neji.
They both sat down. The light of the candle on the table could be seen in each other's eyes.
"Can I help you, two?” asked their waiter.
"Sure,” said Neji, who look at the menu.
"Wow. This place is so romantic,” thought Tenten.
"Tenten, are you ready to order?" asked Neji. He reached over the table and touched Tenten's hand which was on the table.
"Huh? S-Sure.” said Tenten whose face grew red.
"Oh, god. I stutter like Hinata,"thought Tenten.
"Did she just stuttered?” thought Neji.
"I hope he didn't noticed that!” thought Tenten frantically.
"I pretend that never happened,” thought Neji.
"Sure,” said Tenten, and she ordered her food.
----------------------------------------------------------------- -----------
"Should we be watching? You said-" Lee started to say before he got interrupted.
"I know what I said!” snapped Rin.
Lee cowered under Rin's fury.
"I hope she doesn't hurt me!" thought Lee scared.
"Hm..nothing happening. They are just staring at each other, and probably still be until their food comes,” said Rin.
"Maybe they can't think of anything to say to each other?” suggested Lee.
"I have a idea. Bring that waiter, Shigure."said Rin to the waitress who was walking by.
"S-Sure, Rin," stuttered the waitress.
------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------
"I should said something, but what?" thought Tenten.
"Are you going to have dessert? I know you hated sweets, Neji."said Tenten.
"Hn."said Neji coolly.
"What the point of making conversations if he doesn't talk?" thought Tenten angrily.
"Waiter, is our food ready yet?" asked Tenten.
"Ask Shigure,"said a passing waiter with plates in his hands.
"Did someone say my name?" said a waiter who appeared out of nowhere.
"Go help that couple," said the waiter with plates in his hands.
"Um.. we're not a couple," said Tenten nervously.
"Good."said Shigure with a smile.
"So what's your problem?" asked Shigure.
"Is our food ready?" asked Tenten.
"For you, the lovely lady yes. That guy, no.” said Shigure and hand her the food.
"Thanks,” said Tenten.
"No problem for the beautiful lady.” said Shigure.
Tenten giggled.
"Is he hitting on her?" thought Neji.
"Oh, and here's you food.” said Shigure, and slammed the food down. So hard that some food landed on Neji's face.
"Don't do that!” said Neji.
"What? I didn't do anything,” said Shigure rudely.
"Calm down, Neji. Sorry, Shigure,"said Tenten.
"That's all right,” said Shigure smiling.
Shigure had ones of those smiles that melt any girl's heart. Now Tenten didn't normally fall for guys. But with the atmosphere and the wine she had, she couldn't help that her heart fluttered.
"Did Tenten just smile at that jerk?” thought Neji now pissed off.
"So anything else?" asked Shigure sweetly.
"No thanks,” said Tenten smiling.
"I feel sick. Stupid ass!"thought Neji.
"Is that waiter nice?” said Tenten and sighed when Shigure left to help another couple.
"Tenten, that guy is well...a ass,"said Neji.
"He is not!” said Tenten.
"He slammed my food down and why do you care about him?” said Neji.
"I don't. We should be nice to the waiters.” said Tenten.
"I guess,” said Neji.
"Anyway, I'll be right back. I have to go to the bathroom,” said Tenten who got up.
"So, any thing you need, baka?" asked Shigure who appeared as soon as Tenten left.
"No, and don't call me baka,"said Neji coolly.
"Is that girl your girlfriend?” asked Shigure.
"Why?” asked Neji.
"Because she's hot and I can tell she likes her smile,” said Shigure cockily.
"I'm back,” said Tenten who wasn't looking down.
"Tenten, be careful,” said Shigure and he jumped to catch her before she fell on the water.
"What nice eyes, but not like Neji's."thought Tenten as she was face to face with Shigure.
She saw that Shigure's eyes seem to get closer. She also felt the space between them got smaller until their lips touched.
"Gasp,” came from Neji's mouth.

What will happen next? Will Neji beat the shit out of Shigure for what he did? Even I don't know wait... I do! Now review or I won't write more.
