Hey guys! Before reading, just want to let you know, there's not much comedy, well at least not as much as I wanted there to be, and there's a lot of fluff, more than I was expecting to write anyway. And of coarse your usual crack and OOC. Enjoy!

Chapter 3: Tenten Beat

Tenten stood at the back of the clearing staring at Neji. He was sitting it the middle meditating as usual. She was chewing her nails anxiously, going over her scheme in her head. Today was Thursday, the day that Neji would confirm to Gai-sensei who would go on the mission with him. Today was her last chance, and if this worked out well, she'd be able to stay home.

She began to walk over to Neji, but then stopped in her tracks. She went back to the spot where she had been standing and slumped down nervously. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this, she told herself repeatedly. If her plan didn't work out the way it was supposed to, Neji might just end up killing her. She took a deep breath and began to rise, remember Tenten, YOLO, she thought to herself, it's the motto.

She began to walk towards Neji slowly, but then suddenly stopped went back to the spot and slumped again. Fuck 'YOLO', who ever said that obviously never had to deal with Neji, if I do this, he'll make sure I live twice and then kill me again the second time. She hugged her knees to her chest and buried her face in them. She began to wonder if she should just accept the fact that she would have to go on the mission with Neji. Not only would he kill her, but this was a matter of dignity. What she was about to do would definitely throw every inch of pride she had out the window.

She took a deep breath. Remember what you're doing this for Tenten, a whole day off! No Gai-sensei, no speed Lee, and best of all, no grammar Nazi-Neji.

She began to get up and headed toward Neji, this time with a little more determination. She finally made it to him and plopped herself next to him on the ground. She turned her head toward him, his eye were still closed and he hadn't acknowledged her. She gulped and scooted herself closer to him, making sure their knees were touching. She turned her head to him again, still no notice of her.

She took a deep breath, swallow your pride Tenten! she told her self. She looked down at Neji's arm and the small gap between it and his chest. She bit her lip and looked up to make sure his eyes were still close. They were, there was nothing stopping her.

Jesus take the wheel, she thought. She closed her eyes and forced her arm in between the gap. She found his hand and wrapped her fingers around his, she then lastly and resentfully nuzzled her face into his neck.

Holy shit, Tenten thought, I actually did it.

They both sat in the position in silence. Tenten could feel her face heating up, she tried to open an eye, just one, just so she could see Neji, but she couldn't bring her self to do it.

Finally she heard Neji let out a sigh. "Tenten?" he asked. "Do you mind me asking, what on earth are you doing?"

Tenten opened her eyes, what was she doing? Did she really do this? She looked down. Yup, there they were, her hands intertwined into Neji. She'd done it. She actually couldn't help to be proud of her self.

"Tenten?" Neji asked again.

Tenten removed her face from Neji's neck. "Yes Neji?" she asked, smiling crookedly. Although she removed her head from his neck, she left her hand in between his. She was finally able to see his face.

He sighed again, "what are you doing?"

Stick with the plan! She told her self. In yet, she couldn't remember the plan, all she could think of was the fact that her hand was wrapped around Neji's and he hadn't yelled at her or let go.

"Well?"

"Well, what does it look like I'm doing!" Tenten snapped. "I-I'm cuddling," she told him, letting out the last word in a sound disgust.

"Oh," was all Neji said. His mouth fell slightly and Tenten couldn't tell if the look on his face was because he was confused or because he found it funny. Either way, it fueled Tenten's anger.

"Get used to it! T-this is all we're going to be doing through out the whole mission!" She proclaimed, forcing her face against Neji's neck again, this time harsher.

"… Is this about you loving me?"

"T-that's right!"

"I see …"

"Are you sure you're going to be able to handle this, the whole mission?" She asked him, nuzzling into his neck even more. She could feel Neji become slightly uncomfortable and try to move away his neck, but she just continued to move in deeper. She smiled to herself, her plan was finally working.

"Tenten," he began. Tenten moved her head away from his neck and looked at Neji, both their hands still clasped together. "All this burst of affection is just … lovely but, I really need to continue meditating, save it for the mission," he said to her beginning to let go of her hand.

Tenten looked down as he did this and felt herself panic suddenly. "No!" she said almost immediately and grabbed his hand again. Her eyes widened at what she just did, she looked up to Neji and he gave her a bewildered look. Why did I do that? That was completely unnecessary!

"I mean … no! You can't meditate because you've got to … let me … love you …?" That sounded pretty convincing, well at least she believed it did. She felt the his hand against hers once again and was becoming fond of the feeling. She began to move her thumb up and down on the side of Neji's hand. It felt like his hands were made so Tenten could fit hers in them, like they belonged together.

She threw Neji's hand away from hers suddenly in terror, what the fuck was that? She questioned her self in horror. Where did those terrible thoughts come from? Why did I think that suddenly? she sounded like some terrible love song.

"Are you alright Tenten?"

"No! No Neji! I am not alright! I'm tired and I'm very confused- more than usual, and I've gone through so much trouble trying to convince you that I'm majorly in love with you, staying up all night baking you muffins and shit, I couldn't even enjoy one muffin! Not one! And my head is thinking things that it really shouldn't, and to top it all off, I have to go on a God-bless-it mission with you on Saturday!" Tenten let out the breath she'd been holding and got up. "So Neji I am not alright! And it's all thanks to you! Are you happy?" She began to walk away from him, not wanting to be near him at the moment.

"Tenten," Neji called out her name.

"What now!" She asked turning to him.

"I'll see you on Saturday," he told her smirking.

She let out a growl and turned around fiercely. Leave it to Neji Hyuuga to turn my whole world upside down in a matter of two days.
