dismayed. Seems like everyone wanted these two together but hardly

readers are still with me. Thank you loves. :3 So anyways heres the
newest chapter.
Chapter
2
Neji
walked into the suite after dropping TenTen off. He couldn't wait to
talk to Menma about his so called date.
Part
of him dreaded the look on the frail blond's face. The brunette knew
what he was doing was affecting the boy, but he couldn't wait any
longer for him to realize his feelings. He had to give the boy the
extra push to get things moving.
The
door closed behind him quietly, he turned to see the entire area was
engulfed in darkness. There was no light in the room except for the
faint light seeping through the shades and what appeared to be a lit
cigarette off to the side where the couches were. Cautiously, Neji
set his keys down on the counter and walked further into the living
area. He side glanced down the hall way where Menma's room was. It
was completely quiet, no soft sounds from the t.v. or the rustling of
sheets that would indicate the blond was coming to see him. Nothing.
“He's
not here...” Brown hair whipped to the side as the pale man
look forward. Sure enough, it was a cigarette and the voice that just
spoke to him was none other than Jiraiya. But he didn't have that
same amused tone to it. No, as a matter fact, the old man sounded
rather annoyed.
Jiraiya
sat up on the leather material and placed one elbow on his knee while
one hand reached up to sooth his throbbing temples. Damn his life was
continuously filled with drama when it came to his family. The only
bit of amusement for him was the confused and slightly fearful look
in those pale eyes. The white haired man inhaled on the cancer stick
before letting out a rather large cloud of smoke. His eyes
illuminated with an eerie light from the lit end. They focused on the
young man before him.
“W-where
is he? Why aren't you with him? Its late....” Neji tried to
make himself sound indifferent but as soon as the old man told him
that his dear Menma wasn't there, worry consumed him. Sure the blond
could take care of himself but that didn't make him feel any more
better that the younger man wasn't there. His concerns were
interrupted when he heard the cold laugh break from Jiraiya. What was
so funny and why did he sound so strange?
“You
must not have been listening to me when I told you not to hurt my
grandkids. Either that or you didn't take my promises seriously....
Menma went to Suna to his cousin's house. And you wanna know why?”
Neji looked like a lost little boy as he listened to the man talk.
Finally, the thought that maybe he shouldn't have gone through with
such a desperate and STUPID plan, started to whisper in his head. The
brunette didn't get a chance to react to what was said to him because
the white haired man kept talking after taking another puff from the
burning stick. “I'm not a fool, gaki. I know you like Menma.
What I don't know is what the hell you think you're doing with that
young lady....Other than causing my grandson a lot of heartache.”
The old man put the cigarette out and with amazing speed he was off
the couch and directly in the younger male's face, staring him down.
Neji
tried to back away from the close proximity but Jiraiya had his shirt
within his tight grip before his legs could move. As if the man was a
feather his feet were off the ground, just the tips barely scraping
against the plush carpeted room. Pale lavender eyes looked down to
see a murderous gleam flash across the other man's face as he grip
seemed to tighten. The brunette was sure that he would never be able
to see the adorable face of his beloved after tonight but as if his
fears were heard he was let down. Without much time to compose
himself he was slammed into the nearest wall.
“Whatever
the FUCK you're trying to accomplish..its not WORKING. You're making
a mess of my grandkid's feelings now you got two choices. One you can
get your ass kicked from here all the way to Konoha (1) and back
then get fired....Or two you can fix this shit. Might I advise you
fix it?” Not really needing anymore 'encouragement', the pale
man nodded. A disturbing yet relieved smile crossed the older male's
face before he gave Neji another shove into the wall. “Good....
Now FIX IT!!”
An
hour later found the brunette on an express train toward Suna. The
only thoughts running through his head were how he was going to make
things right with the timid man. Every now and then pangs of guilt
would stab his heart. He should have never come up with such a stupid
idea. But then again, would Menma ever really be brave enough to open
his heart again. And especially to the same man that use to date the
love of his life?
With
Menma:
The sound of his cell phone work the timid blond from
his restless slumber. Sluggishly, he reached over to the night stand
his fingers fumbling about seeking out the confounded device. His
gray eyes cracked open, trying to focus on the name of the caller.
Giving up quickly after, he resigned himself to just answering.
“H-hello?” There was a soft chuckle on the
other end of the call that slightly brightened Menma's mood.
“Naru-chan?”
“Yup...What are you doing asleep so early?”
The pale blond looked at the clock near his lamp and squinted so he
could see the time correctly.
“What are you talking about? Its almost midnight.
Why aren't you asleep yet?” Another chuckle erupted in
response. He could vaguely hear Gaara grumbling for attention in the
background. The innuendo left to his imagination made Menma break
into a very interesting hue of pink. Shaking his head free of such
thoughts he returned his attention to his cousin's voice.
“Being married to someone like Gaara and having
kids like the twins kinda makes ya adjust to late nights. Besides the
little girl is making sure I don't sleep on my favorite side. So what
better else to do than annoy my NOT pregnant husband and help my
beloved cousin at the same time.” The younger of the two could
just hear the grin on the other's face. As usual his favorite ball of
sunshine was getting a kick out of tormenting his precious people.
Menma smirked softly rolling his eyes as he listened to the boy
snicker at his mate.
“So basically you just called me to talk?”
“Huh?” The blue eyed male burst into
laughter. “No, no, no, I was calling you because after you left
Kiba and me agreed that maybe you should start dating. Not trying to
depress you again but thats what Neji seems to be doing.” At
the mention of the brunette, Naruto's voice became softer. Menma
frowned hearing the name of his employee's name. He was so wrapped up
in his depression that he didn't really catch the last part of his
cousin's words until he heard his name being called. “Menma!
Menma! You still there?”
“Huh? Oh no could you repeat that?” Naruto
rolled his eyes on the other end before answering with a huff.
“I said Kiba knows a guy from his job that seems
pretty nice. We think you and him could hit off really well. It'll
get your mind off of other things. What do you think?” The
frail man was still a little dazed so immediately agreed to what the
other male was saying to him. It didn't hit him exactly what he
agreed to until after the two had hung up.
“What the! I think I just agreed to a date!”
Gray eyes widened comically as the boy sat in his bed in the dark.
What had he gotten himself into? Could he really go on a date with
someone when his heart and mind were still focused on another? Then
it hit him. Of course he could. Neji had been dating others since a
little after they agreed to being just friends. The fact the brunette
was 'suppose' to have a crush on him, didn't stop him from wandering
about and dating this girl or that guy. Yes, Menma nodded to himself,
he COULD go on this date and he WOULD get his mind of the other male.
It was obvious that the so called attraction said manager had for him
was non-existent as of late. Unknown to him the male in mention was
on his way to him with hopes of fixing what he had obviously fucked
up, badly.
“I'm sorry Menma just please don't be too
upset...”
The
Next Day:
“Don't
worry Men-chan, Sai is a really nice guy. A little cheerful in a
creepy sort of way but still a nice guy.” Naruto glared at his
friend who innocently shrugged giving an apologetic smile in his
wake. The tan male just shook his head and smiled at his timid
relative.
“We
wouldn't hook you up with someone bad...” The blue eyed man
sent his cousin a reassuring smile before leading the smaller male
down the street.
Knock,
Knock
Gaara
sat in the den watching his twins and trying his best to make sure
that his idiot of an older brother didn't drop his little niece, when
he heard the firm knocks on his door. He looked down at his son who
seemed to know exactly what he wanted. 'Keep
your cousin and sister out of trouble'
, was what he silently transmitted to the young blond. With just a
nod a mirrored smirk, the red head headed down the hallway to the
door. Peering through the peephole he let out a rather annoyed grunt
but opened the door nonetheless. The green eyed male looked at the
brunette with an emotionless face, arms folded over his chest and an
almost perturbed air.
“Hyuuga...” Neji looked at Gaara and sighed
softly to himself. Great, out of all the people to answer the door it
had to be his ex. The brunette groaned inwardly and restrained
himself from responding to the red head's apparent distaste for him.
He needed to Menma as soon as possible and if that meant putting up
with the Subakuno, then so be it.
“Subakuno-san..” Green eyes widened for a
split second before becoming indifferent once more, the red head male
didn't expect the sudden formal exchange. Whatever had Neji standing
in front of his door must have been really important. The other man
didn't offer enough time for him to digest this turn of events
because he continued with his request. “Is Menma here?” A
hopeful look overtook the pale lavender eyes. He couldn't really deal
with the fact that the frail blond would come all the way to Suna
because of his foolishness and he had to make it right as soon as he
located the boy.
Gaara was about to say no but his brother had answered
for him. With the small girl in his arms and the twins glaring up at
the Hyuuga, he offered the long haired male a goofy grin.
“Nope! Kiba and Naruto took him out to the
Sandside Cafe to meet some guy he has a blind date with.” Gaara
groaned shaking his head, his small son mirrored his actions while
the chibi females just giggled and grinned. Neji's eyes grew wide
with the information. He thanked them both quickly before dashing out
the building and down the street. Thankfully, due being the pale
blond's manager for so long, the Hyuuga knew his way around Suna
pretty well and knew exactly where the Cafe was. But first he had to
get a disguise so neither of the men knew he was there or the fact
that he was about to ruin the blind date in progress.
At the Cafe:
“Menma this is Sai. Sai this is my friend Menma,
he's Naruto's cousin.” The raven looked up from the menu and
gave the group one of his patent smiles before standing up and
reaching for the timid blond's hand. Menma looked up at his cousin
looking for some kind of encouragement. Naruto smiled and nodded his
head causing the younger male to calm down a little. Shyly, the gray
eyed male reached out and was about to shake the hand when Sai dipped
down and gently kissed the back of his slender hand. Immediately, the
pale face of the blond turned a rose pink. His cousin and friend both
gave small chuckles behind him and gentle pats on his back.
“Men-chan we're gonna go to the restaurant next
door so we won't be disturbing your date. Just call us if you need
us.” Menma looked panicked as his cousin waved to him and left
with the tan brunette. No one seemed to notice the tall brunette
business woman wearing shades, that walked in at the same time they
were leaving. So neither of the men stopped their small conversation.
“I hope those to get along, Menma really needs someone who will
cherish him.”
“Yea, he's such a sweet guy. He really deserves
some happiness.”
“You know at the twin's birthday party I really
thought he and Neji were pretty much in a relationship.”
“Yea I did too. Guess looks really are
deceiving.”
“Yea....”
Neji flinched as he heard the two talk. A pang of guilt
ripped through his heart as he thought back to that day. Menma and he
stayed close to each other for the majority of the day and anyone
looking at them really could have been tricked into thinking they
were a couple. The problem was they weren't but hopefully after this
trip that would all change.
Quietly, the woman made her way to a table, right next
to Menma and Sai. Neji didn't purposely dress as a woman but he
refused to cut his hair and the closest clothing store was a
formal-wear clothing store for the modern working woman. So with a
few bobby pins, a large enough pants suit, and some shades, he walked
out the store and into the Cafe looking like the tallest yet most
regal looking business woman in the establishment. With the flawless
disguise the pale eyed man was able to sit right next to the blond
and hear everything that the two discussed.
“So, Menma-kun, you're dickless's cousin?”
Gray eyes became huge and he almost chocked on the water he was
drinking. The blond covered his mouth with a napkin and composed
himself before he could respond.
“Um....excuse? Dickless?” The raven
chuckled softly and nodded giving the soft spoken blond another eerie
smile.
“Naruto...thats what I call him.”
“Ano...Does he approve of that nickname?”
Sai shrugged the grin on his face never faltering.
“I really don't care if he does or doesn't. I
wouldn't call it a nickname either. I just refuse to believe he has a
dick.” Menma frowned at the older male. Even if he wasn't in
love with the other blond any longer he still didn't like people
speaking bad about one of his most precious people.
“I'm sorry Sai-kun but I would prefer if you
didn't call him that.” Once again he received a nonchalant
shrug before the other male nodded in agreement.
“If thats what you want. But it doesn't change my
thoughts on the matter.” An exasperated sigh escaped the blond
as he looked down at the menu. He could already tell that he and this
Sai person were not going to click like his cousin and friend were
hoping. Neji was much more of a gentleman and not as crude as the
raven. Oh, how he wished Neji was still interested in him.
Unbeknownst to him, said brunette was using every bit
of self restraint not to get up and chock the vulgar male. Naruto was
a really nice person overall and he actually didn't appreciate people
talking about the guy like that. The fact that it upset Menma only
pissed him off even more. Only benefit about this guy was that he
was ruining the date without Neji even having to lift a finger.
The brunette smiled inwardly.
Menma
was trying his damnest to be polite since his friend and cousin were
so worried about his feelings, but this guy, something just seemed so
fake about him. Sai looked at him and immediately the small blond
forced the sweetest smile he could muster onto his face. With much
concentration he focused onto the raven when the pale man began to
speak.
“So,
you're an uke right?” This guy obviously never heard of tact.
Once again Menma looked like he was about to pass out or chock from
the words that spewed out the older man's mouth. “Well? You
are aren't you because I really don't think I could see you being
seme to a mouse let alone a man.” He chuckled to himself and
somewhere there was the faint sound of a glass cracking under intense
pressure and quite possibly the gritting of teeth tightly clenched
together.
“Sai-san
you are saying a lot of inappropriate things and I would really
appreciate if you would think about what affects you are having on
others for those things...” The raven just stared at the blond,
unmoving. It really made Menma feel uneasy. For about another minute
thats all the other man did until he cracked a smile, followed by a
hollow, cold laugh.
“You
know I don't have time for this. You're just like your damn
cousin...too much of a pussy. You see Kiba-kun again tell him that he
needs to stay out the matchmaking business.” And with that the
jerk dropped a few bills onto the table and blew a kiss at the
visibly distraught male.
Menma
was shocked speechless, not only was the raven rude but he was
obviously very impatient and not very understanding either. The gray
eyed boy hung his head down in despair, thoughts of how well his long
haired manager would treat him, flitted through his mind. He was so
engulf by those thoughts that he didn't notice the person seated
behind him was currently standing next to him and offering the boy
tissue to wipe tears he had no clue were there. The young male didn't
notice anything until he heard the other person clear their throat.
Thats when he looked up and up and up into the face of the tallest,
most intimidating woman he had ever seen in his entire life! Before
he attempted to say anything, Menma swallowed hard. He prayed to Kami
this wasn't Sai's betrayed lover or something, she looked like she
could really throw a punch.
“T-thank
you...” The woman nodded before moving over to the empty seat.
“You
look like you could use a friend.” Gray eyes widened, which
seemed to be a reoccurring thing during the week, the voice that came
from her was surprisingly deep and velvety it reminded him a lot of
his manager's voice. Without much thought, Menma was up pulling the
seat out for her. He quickly returned to his own seat looking up at
the pale face and sleek shades on her face. The man was sure if he
was into women she would be the kind of woman he would be attracted
to, she was really quite a looker. “What a gentleman...so whats
got you so down? Was it that jerk who just left.”
“Oh...you
heard us?” The 'female' nodded quietly. “Sorry I didn't
mean to disturb your meal...” He looked away from her his face
already turning a dull pink. Neji smirked admiring how cute Menma was
when he was nervous, it reminded him of his little cousin. Menma was
thoroughly surprised when he heard the laugh that danced from the
'lady's' mouth.
“Oh
excuse me. No you didn't disturb my meal. I just felt like you could
use someone to talk to who was a little more tactful. But I have to
ask, why were you even out with someone like that?” The pale
blond frowned looking down at his hands. He took a deep breath before
looking at the woman. For some reason she made him feel very
comfortable and even slightly important. Just the way she looked at
him through those shades told him she was very interested in what he
had to say. Menma didn't understand why but he wasn't going to push
her company away not when he needed someone to hear his real feelings
without the risk of ridicule or unwanted help.
“I
was on a blind date my cousin and our childhood friend set me up on.
They thought it would get me out of my funk.”
“Do
you mind if I ask why you are in a funk?”
The
blond shook his head and gave the 'female' a sincere smile, “Iie...I
have been feeling depressed since I realized the person I love the
most has moved on and found someone else.” A stray tear made
its way down his pale cheek. Neji stiffened as he watched the
heartbroken boy spill his guts to him. “I...I should have told
him how I felt when he still wanted me. Now its too late. And what
hurts the most is because I was so scared that he would hurt me.
Looks like I hurt myself and lost a good chance at being happy.”
His body shuddered as the flood of tears broke loose against his soft
grief stricken face. The long haired brunette could feel the smaller
boy's body stiffen as he reached over and gently squeezed his
shoulder.
“How
do you know he has moved on? Maybe he was trying to force you to
confess?” Menma's facial expression changed drastically.
“But
that would be such a mean way to do it....” A sharp pang of
guilt sliced through Neji's heart. He had to come clean lest really
loose the blond this time. With a shake breath he sat up and reached
for his shades at the same time grabbing the smaller male's arm, just
in case he tried to escape.
“Well,
yes it is a mean way but what if he realized it was cruel and wanted
to apologize.” He took the shades off exposing his lavender
eyes then he reached back pulling the long hair pin in his hair ,
letting the long silky tresses spill back down his back. Menma's eyes
grew large for what had to be the hundredth time that day alone.
“Menma-kun....I'm sorry. I haven't moved on at all. If nothing
else I think I am more in love with you than I have ever been with
anyone in my life. I just got impatient and wanted you to confess
your feelings to me.” A look of hurt overcast the gray eyed
boy's face. Yep, it was a really stupid plan after all.
“H....How
evil of you....” Neji cast his eyes down, no longer able to
look at the hurt on the other's face. “So you played with
someone else's heart just so I would get jealous and confess to you?!
Then what? You would have broke that young lady's heart??? And what
are you doing here anyways...dressed like THAT!” The shorter
male stood from the table and tried to leave but the grip on his arms
tightened and yanked him back. When he opened his eyes he found
himself in the arms of the Hyuuga. Menma was enraged but hurt as
well. He pushed and tugged against the arms trying his hardest to
free himself but it was useless, the blond never could muster up the
strength he needed if it were just for his sake. Soon, he exhausted
himself with all his efforts and resigned to just sobbing and cursing
at the other man.
“Please
Menma.... You have to understand,” Neji held tight to the small
body terrified that he had lost the boy for good with that stunt. “I
didn't play with anyone's heart, well....yours and I'm so very very
very sorry for that, but the girl was a friend of mine. I asked her
to help me because I was tired of waiting for you to come around.
Shit, she even told me it was a stupid idea but....” He grabbed
both the other male's shoulders pulling him away so he could look
deep into his eyes. “Thats how badly I long for you. How much I
want to hear you tell me you love me. How much I just want to hold
you and never let go and to feel you holding me as well.” Menma
was ready to start cursing at the foolish brunette until he saw
something that made him gasp. Neji was crying. He had never seen the
boy cry. But there he was looking like a lost motherless child, tears
pouring out his eyes non-stop. The blond's face softened considerably
as he shakily reached up and cupped the taller man's face in his
slender hands.
“Neji...
I can't tell you how much your sincerity means to me but at the same
time I can't just forgive you for that stunt.” The grip on his
shoulder loosened until the large hands were slack at either side of
the Hyuuga. The lose of heat caused the younger male's heart to
quicken in alarm. “Maybe I was wrong to make you wait like
that. You have been very patient and I can understand you getting
restless. I was just scared you would hurt me like you have to so
many other people.”
“But
I've changed! You've changed me! I-” Menma raised his hand
resting it against the older man's mouth nodding with a smile.
“I
know and thats why..” He wrapped his arms around Neji's neck
and rested his head against the broad chest, listening to the rapid
beating. The pale blond sighed softly before looking up into fearful
eyes. Lips were slowly pulled down and pressed against another pair
of soft ones. As they separated, Neji looked confused but Menma only
smiled sweetly, “I think we should try, but you can't do
anything like that again. Just come to me and say what you have to.
Ok?” It was like the shorter boy had a spell over him because
Neji obediently nodded without any kind of protest or resistance.
The
long haired man finally breathed out in relief and then immediately
wrapped his arms around the slender body before him, enveloping him
in a tight hug, “I love you so much.”
“I
love you too.” Was the soft yet shaky response. The blond
wanted to cry again but he held it back. It would look kind of weird,
two grown men crying in the middle of a cafe. And thats when Menma's
face turned a crimson red. They were having a reconciliation in the
middle of a busy cafe. He gently nudged Neji in the side, who in
turned looked down at him questioningly. “Um...lets go to my
suite and finish talking this out, ne?”
“Yea....”
Menma set down a few bills and let out a tiny squeak when a strong
arm wrapped around his lithe waist. He looked up to be locked into an
intense gaze. The two were in there own little world as they made
their way out the business. The young Namikaze totally forgot about
the other two males waiting for him to call.
“Kiba,
dammit that was my damn strawberry!”
“Tch!
Whatever. You could stand to miss a few meals you know...”
There was a loud crash of dishes as they fell to the floor as the
pregnant man lifted the table over his head. His eyes looked as if
they turned a bright blood red. Kiba's own eyes grew huge. Damn, he
forgot how strong and bitchy Naruto could be.
“THATS
CAUSE I'M PREGNANT YOU DIPSHIT!!!”
Needless
to say, Gaara wasn't too happy when he got the bill for all the
damage those two caused that day. Good thing he had a very good job.
Kurai Kisu:
Nope thats not the end I promised a lemon and a lemon I shall deliver
lol. I just wanted to say I got my butt dragged to the Steve Wilkos
show yesterday. If you don't know who he is, he's the bald guy that
use to do security for the Jerry Springer show.(Believe me I don't
think anyone is stupid I had to explain who he was to like 3 people
already!) Well anyways I got set up and put on the aisle not to
mention I got goaded into saying something. So yep! I will be on
National TV in a few weeks. I just pray that I will be in another
country by the time it shows. I think I looked a hot mess. My
siblings said I was cute and that I will be getting calls from model
agencies so I told them I was too big for that. So they said I would
probably get a call from Torrid. I'm so scared. But then again I took
my braids out today so by the time I come out this house again I will
have blood red hair. But anyways I am gonna go M.I.A. In just a
matter of weeks. I promise to get the last chapter out before then. I
hope the ones that ARE reading this story like it. I have been
working on my other story more and I can't wait to get settled in my
new home so I can post it. Thanks Kami for betaing for me. Ja!
