This has been delayed by internet problems, author sickness, and surprise unicorn buttsecks. So without further ado…

Neji hurried out of the compound as fast as his feet could carry him.

The village passed in a blur, the road fluid under him.

And then he skidded to a halt.

She was waiting for him at the entrance to the west training round. Tenten was leaning against the gate, eyes cast down, shadows passing over her face.

Then she saw his shadow, the only one still in the shifting of people and the flutter of leaves.

She catapulted towards him, caught him and spun around. He laughed, and let her pull him until they both slowed.

"Hello." She smiled up at him, and then caught him in a kiss.

Someone please turn the gravity back on. Eventually, I mean.

He broke off. "You know…"

Tenten closed her eyes. "Yes, yes. Training. I know."

"Was it me, or did Gai-sensei say the east grounds?"

"It's always the west grounds, dummy."

"I believe," he said, casting his eyes significantly at her, "that he said east. I could be mistaken."

The smile flashed on her face. "It's certainly possible he might've said that."

"It wouldn't be the first time."

"And I can always blame it on you."

Neji smiled. "That's fine by me."

She looped her arm though his, and towed him behind her.

"I believe the ramen shop is in an easterly direction."

"The orange idiot is in town. Let's not risk it."

"Good point."

Although, truth be told, it didn't take much.

And that, Ladies and Gents, is my first hopefully-not-too-horrible attempt at a fanfic. Please review.

Next fic will probably will be of the yaoi sorts, all of you who are watching me and aren't into that thing. Just so you know.
