HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Chapter Two: Letter's
Lee didn't know how many days it has been since he left Konoha. So far, from what other ninja's had told him, (after they had fallen to the strength of his Konoha Whirlwind), he was still about a three days walk from the village hidden in the sand. Even if he got there he would still have to find Gaara, and as he was from the village hidden in the leaves, he didn't know if any sand ninjas would try attacking him.
And then there was the lingering problem rumbling around in his head. He couldn't get Tenten out of his mind.
What was she doing? Was she thinking of him? Was she waiting for him to come back to her?
All these thoughts crossed his mind a number of times, but most importantly he missed her.
The day was coming to an end and night was slowly starting to take over. Lee was nowhere near a Inn so he decided to camp out in the woods. After he had pitched his tent and started a fire, he decided to write a letter to Tenten while he waited for his dinner to finish cooking.
~~~~Dear Tenten~~~~~
It feels like it has been forever since I have seen your lovely face. Have run into very little trouble on the way, no other ninja's, and the most trouble I've been having was from some bandits. There is something that worries me though. It is about our "relationship" if that is what you would call it. I know I have feelings for you, but you didn't tell me your feeling about this "relationship". Is that what you want ? By the time you get this I should be in Suna. I will write you again when I find what I'm looking for. I don't know when it will happen, but the offer still stands. If you need me for anything, I will come running. Take care, my sweet angel.
With Love- Rock Lee.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
He put the letter in an envelope inside his jacket and finished his dinner before turning in to sleep.
Upon waking up, he proceeded to Suna. He found out that he was closer than he expected. Still, the days were hotter and the nights colder as he continued on his way. He was about a day from Suna as he bedded down for the night. As Lee closed his eyes his thoughts drifted to Tenten and the kiss they shared before he left. He fell asleep with a small smile on his face.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lee had arrived in Suna and found Gaara after he had sent off his letter to Tenten.
"Well, well, well. Rock Lee. A pleasant surprise. What can I do for you?" Gaara asked.
Lee creased his eyebrows and cocked his head to the side. Was this the same Gaara he had faced before? It couldn't have been. There was something clearly different here.
"I came to train."
"Train?"
Lee nodded.
"A Hidden Leaf Village ninja came to train in the Hidden Sand Village? With me?"
"Yes."
Gaara smiled. "Alright, but I should warn you, I don't train alone."
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It had been two months since Lee had moved in with Gaara, his older brother Kankuro and his older sister Tamari. Much to his unexpected surprise. Everyday was a rigorous training regime, not that Lee complained. He just dug in and pushed himself forward as he had learned.
Naruto and the others had learned to use their chakra to preform incredible feats of ninja magic. But Lee had chosen different. In the time he had stayed with them, Lee found the experience both fun and rewarding.
However, there had been no word from Tenten.
Lee had been sitting out on the roof of Gaara's house. He and his brother and sister were downstairs trying to teach Gaara how to play Go-Fish. The Hidden Leaf ninja could hardly believe it when he found Gaara. He could see right away that he was a changed person. No longer the cold person that he had fought in the exams. Now, he was acting like a little brother. He was nicer, kinder, and didn't kill people any more just for fun.
He sighed, his thoughts drifted away from Gaara and flowed to someone else. He couldn't help but notice how beautiful the night sky looked. And how he just wanted to look at the stars with Tenten.
‘Tenten. I miss you.'
He was so engrossed with his thoughts that he failed to sense Gaara until he sat down next to him.
"You know you could go back to her if you wanted?" Gaara said, not making it sound like a question but more like.
"I know, but then I would have to leave her again." Lee brooded.
Gaara smiled at his friend. "Then go get her, and bring her back with you. I know Tamari would like another girl in the house."
Lee looked at Gaara for a few seconds, saying nothing. "But is that a good idea? You know they have bad blood between them about what happen in the exams."
"That's the best part. Tamari wants to apologize for what she did." Gaara explained.
Lee smiled at that. "I like that." he mused with some happiness. "Thanks, Gaara, that's the best offer I've heard in a long time."
"You can thank Naruto. He was the one that opened my eyes." Gaara said before jumping down off the roof and heading inside.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
After leaving Lee on the roof, Gaara went inside to find Kankuro in his bed. However, Tamari was asleep on the coach. She would have some pain in the morning after today's training, so Gaara thought it best to move her to her bed. Despite her being the older sister, she wasn't that heavy, a fact Gaara noted as he easily hefted her up and moved her to her room.
Tamari was half asleep, but managed to say one last thing before he left. "I love you Gaara, goodnight."
Gaara smiled at that. "I love you to, goodnight sister."
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
After dealing with his sister, Gaara went to check on Lee. All he found was his bed empty and a note saying that he'd gone back to get Tenten.
"Guess I need to get another futon set up." Gaara said to himself.
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Lee ran as fast as he could back to Konoha, and still it took him three days to get there. His first stop was his place so that he could shower and sleep. But he was too excited and only slept an hour. When he woke up he looked at his clock and saw it to be 6 at night.
Lee walked all the way to Tenten's house, knocking on her door and waiting patiently for her to answer.
When she did, Lee froze, as to him it was as if God had just opened the gate to heaven and let an Angel set foot upon the Earth.
That Angel.... was Tenten.
The second Lee say her in the doorway, there was nothing but silence between then. He didn't know if she was going to hug him, hit him, slap him, or kiss him. None of it came as Lee saw the girl launch herself at him, crushing herself to his chest as his arms instinctively wrapped around her body as her silent sobs rocked her body and wet his shirt.
Several minutes passed as Lee held the girl, then lifted her chin up with his finger to stare deep into her eyes before laying a soft and gentle kiss on Tenten lips. Lee continued to hold Tenten and lay loving kisses on her lips.
"I got your letter and yes I want a relationship." Tenten said, still softly crying.
"Then why are you crying?" he asked her.
"When you didn't send anymore... I thought you weren't coming back to me."
Lee cursed himself. He had been so caught up with his training that he hadn't but sent one letter back to Tenten in the two months he'd been with Gaara. He would have died himself before he'd let her suffer like that.
"Please don't leave me again!" she said, burying her head in his chest, clutching at his shirt tightly.
Lee gave a gentle smile that she didn't see. "Never. But I have to go back to Gaara's house."
Tenten's head shot up at that, her eyes red from crying. "But... you just said you wouldn't leave me again."
"And I meant it. I want you to come with me."
Tenten's face filled with the most beautiful smile Lee had ever seen. She couldn't believe it, he had come back to see her, but also because he had come to take her back with him. Tenten threw her arms around Lee's neck and kissed him with enough force to nearly topple the boy.
"Ok. But let me get my stuff." she said as she pulled him inside her house.
Her intention was pretty clear to Lee as she started to make him dinner. While he ate, she would get her things together for their trip in the morning.
‘Looks like I'm not staying at my house tonight' Lee thought as he saw Tenten prepare a second futon. Obviously for him.
