โenjoyโ he lifts a hand for a wave, however ends up using it to cover his mouth as he yawns.
โi think iโll take another nap, since iโm not needed for anythingโ
โ you're such a lazyhead. โ
the comment escaped just as quick as the thought formed in her head. alas ...
โ well, anywayโ i'm getting
back there for now. see ya. โ
huh? what did he say that was so funny? now heโs just confused. he didnโt understand women. or anyone really. but mainly women.
yawning, he canโt help himself but sit back down. โtodays been a long dayโ he hasnโt even done anything.
for a moment, the thought that she should be embarrassed lingered. however, her laugh was heard next. this was impossible.
still smiling, a light shake of her head. alright, alright.
โiโm unsure if i should be flattered or insulted by that.โ she was basically calling him smart, but also lazy. however, everybody knows that. at least he puts the effort in when itโs truly needed.
it was unbelievable. the blonde shook her head with a short sigh.
โ who'd have known behind that brains of yours was a laziness this big. โ
seriously. it was such a contradiction, something she found odd. however, that didn't mean she lost any respect to him as a shinobi.
temari can be scary when she was mad, he was being careful. he was too tired to be dealing with that right now.
โhuh.. i always find the meetings feel like hours.โ he finds it very difficult to stay awake during them.
uhโ huh. a little taken aback by such reaction. somehow, expecting a complaint back.
โ yeah, i see that ... โ.
thoughts not wandering that far. briefly glancing towards the hokage building.
โ the meetings aren't that long, actually. โ
oh boy โ that stance, and that tone? both not good.
he sits up and rubs the back of his neck. โall i did was close my eyes for a secondโ nervous chuckle.
hands on her sides, tilting her head. the question, out of curiosity, sounds more likely like a scold.
โ do you always sleep in between break time? โ
โbarbecue will just make me feel like iโm on a date with choji, so i think ichiraku winsโ he couldnโt believe that only yesterday they were admitting their feelings towards one another and now they were planning a date.
โ I've been on a date either , youโre my first. โ
neji admitted averting his gaze down to the ground cheeks turning red, then let's his gaze flickers back up to meet brown ones.
โ barbecue, we can go for barbecue or ichiraku. โ
โ know what you like doing, hinata wasnโt too much of a help unfortunately. and iโm not sure what people do on dates because well.. iโve never actually been on oneโ
his cheeks turned more red when he heard nejiโs answer. relief washed over him. he wasnโt quite sure what heโd do if the other boy said no. it would be utterly embarrassing and he probably wouldnโt be able to face him again, so heโs glad he said yes.
โi- i donโt really +
โ youโreโโโasking me out. โ
neji stared at shikamaru for a moment prior, trying to process the otherโs question being asked towards him , shikamaru was asking him out.
โ i would love to. โ
he said . The tip of his ears burning red neji knew shikamaru was bad at this.
โi mean.. well, yes and no..โ he rubbed the back of his neck. why was he always so damn nervous around neji?
โi was just wondering if youโd like to i donโt knowโฆ maybe hang out again sometime?โ it was an awful attempt at asking him out. he already told neji he was bad at this.
โ you came all this way to ask how i was doing .แฃโ
he questioned with a clear mixture of confusion and a head tilt lips pursed for a moment before answering him.
โ iโโโ , iโm doing well .โ
his mind going back to the previous that had accured yesterday between them.
his cheeks turned red and he was quick to look downwards to hide it. โn-neji, hiโฆโ he couldnโt get over their talk from the other day, it had been constantly on his mind.
โi was just..โ great, now he couldnโt even think straight. โhow are you?โ
who could be knocking on his door .แฃ hm , hair tied into a messy bun, neji made his way towards the door at the sound of the knocking, sliding it open, coming face to face with shikamaru.
hands braced onto the door , blinking in surprise.
โ sโshikamaru .แฃ whatโre you +
