A Peak into the Past

�So, when are you planning on telling me about this Naruto person?� Sasuke asked casually as Neji got off the phone. He had just made lunch plans to meet at a fancy little caf� downtown with the boy in question. Their conversation was filled with relaxed banter and smiles all around.

What amazed Sasuke was Neji�s reaction after seeing the blonde. It seemed he�d just witnessed Act II of this rare side of Neji. He�d allowed his mask to slip enough for Sasuke to catch a peek at was underneath. Sasuke has seen it only a handful of times throughout their friendship, and this Naruto fellow brought it out of him so easily and more frequently.

Neji slid his mask of indifference back on and looked off, lost in thought. Sasuke waited.

~*~

�Neji?� Gaara asked.

�Yeah, we were just making plans for lunch.� Naruto answered as he readied himself for his outing, but he still felt Gaara�s eyes on him. �What?� The silence stretched until he gave up and turned around. �What?!�

�I just want to know who Neji is.�

�He�s just some guy I helped awhile ago and then somehow we became friends.� Gaara still stared.

And stared.

And stared.

And stared.

�Damn it to hell! Do you know how fucking annoying that is! What am I saying? Of course you do!� He huffed and Gaara continued staring so he just threw his hands up in surrender. �I guess you want the whole story huh?� He sighed and began the tale of how he met Neji.

Five years ago�

Cerulean eyes looked upon the Physical Education teacher curiously as he explained the class�s next tested exercise. When the one-eyed teacher announced gymnastics, groans and curses echoed through out the gym. Apparently, it was a month long assignment covering tumbling, balance beams, and the horse. A week and a half for each scheduled task.� A week and a half each of gayness� was the singular thought all the boys shared. The one owning the cerulean eyes, reserved his judgment. He smiled to himself; he knew his classmates didn�t think he was capable of such a thing.

Pulling out a little orange book, the white haired teacher leaned lazily against the padded gym walls. The class was protesting his choice of activities. He ignored the �Oi, sensei! I�m not doing this!� and the �You have got to be kidding me!� until one said �Hell no, this is so homosexual!� He sighed deeply, putting his book away and regretting that he didn�t get to finish his chapter.

�I guess there�s no helping it then.� He said blandly. The students started to get excited that their sensei finally came to his senses.

�Kakashi-sensei, you really mean i?.� One boy called out.

Not answering the boy, he made his way to one of the floor mats. He took a deep breath and ran. What happened next held the class in shocked awe.

Kakashi-sensei did a series of somersaults and landed them perfectly. He spun, rolled, and flipped so effortlessly that it was just so gracefully on the floor mat. It almost looked like a choreographed dance. Then moving over to the balance beam, ignoring his students� stunned looks, he jumped off the spring and landed on it unwaveringly. After dipping each leg one after the other off the beam, he straightened and cart-wheeled forward, then and somersaulted backwards. He ran and vaulted right off the beam and stuck the landing. Finally, moved on to the horse and immediately he swung himself on it. Holding himself up with just his arms, he swung his legs around. His legs looked like helicopter blades slicing the air as he moved. Suddenly, he just stopped; he held himself in one place and slowly lifted his legs in the air. Upside down, he straightened his arms and flipped off flawlessly, then promptly walked off settling himself back on the wall and reopening his book.

Kakashi left his students there blinking blankly. Cerulean eyes absorbed everything that he just witnessed. He just gained so much respect for the lazy sensei. Flicking his blond hair to the side, he yelled �Oi, Kakashi-sensi! So when are we gonna start?!�

A little annoyed, Kakashi raised his head giving up reading his book. �Naruto.�

�Get your lazy ass up and teach me how to do that!�

He really had to teach that brat some manners. Kakashi thought to himself as her followed the blonde.

~*~

Personally, Naruto thought the whole month was just too funny. It was so comical to see everyone falling on their asses and the making excuses for themselves. He started making a list of how many times each person fell and how they landed, amd laughed silently at all the people that taunted and bullied him. Even now, he watched his classmates clumsily try to do the floor exercise properly but it seemed like only their faces meet the mat.

All accept one boy, a boy with pale lilac eyes. His other features were just as beautiful as his eyes but somehow that was the characteristic that stood out to him. He seemed flawless. Every task he was given, he executed perfectly. He ignored all the praises and pats on the back except those of a girl that looked enough like him to be related. To this one girl, he was ruthless in his criticism. The girl was soft hearted and was visually shaken from his barbs.

�Hinata- hime,� He said the honorific sarcastically �You�re messing up everything! How many times do I have to tell you� bend your knees!�

�Y-y-yes, Neji-nii.� Hinata stuttered softly as she attempted the stunt once more.

�Hinata- hime!� He yelled so sharply that the poor girl lost her balance and hit her head on the floor.

That was the last straw. �Oi pretty boy!� Naruto screamed at the unfeeling jerk! �Stop picking on her!� He bent down to help Hinata up. She accepted with silent gratitude. �You Ok?�

Blushing she said �Thank you Naruto-kun.�

�You know my name?�

She flushed a deeper shade of red and played with her two index fingers.

�This is none of you concern loser.� There it was again! There was the distain he heard in everyone�s voice and Neji�s was no different.

�Of course it�s my concern! That�s not how you treat a lady!�

�How would you know? Your mother?� The fist came out of no where and repeatedly landed itself on Neji�s face. Kakashi-sensei broke the fight up quickly before it got too out of hand. Neji didn�t have a chance to throw a punch. He lay on the floor with his face bloody and swollen; he was stunned when he came back to himself and his gaze promised vengeance.

�Uzumaki! Office now!� Kakashi-sensei bellowed as he shoved him towards the door. �Hinata-chan can you take you cousin to the nurse?�

As Hinata and Neji walked passed Naruto, Neji whispered �Behind the school after classes end.�

�I�ll be there� believe it!� He said passionately but just as softly.

~*~

The final bell had already rung and the boys were just waiting as the last of the students to make there way off the grounds. The stared coolly at each other each thinking that they were the one that was justified in the upcoming fight.

�You�re a jackass! Picking on a girl; not to mention she�s your cousin!�

�That has not importance to me!� Neji said coolly.

�She�s family!� Naruto was pissed! How could the jackass not care! Didn�t he know he was blessed to even have a family! Didn�t he know that he was lucky not to be raised by people that were paid to take care of him?

�That may be but I do not have to like it. She is weak! I can�t believe it is my destiny to follow her!�

That was it! That was the straw that broke the camel�s back! This time Neji saw the fist coming and blocked it quickly.

�In the gym� that was a lucky punch. Don�t expect that to happen again.� Taunting his victim, Neji continued. �You know, I know about you� the loser with a temper and the big mouth to match. It�s only fitting, I suppose, that a loser would want to protect a loser.� This time Neji danced around a punch-kick combo.

Naruto was seeing red and while he was clenching and unclenching his hands. He didn�t know Hinata well, but he did know she was a very sweet girl and didn�t deserve this. �Destiny? If you don�t like her, leave her be. I don�t understand why you will be around someone you don�t like.�

�I can�t. Destiny. It�s my branch�s destiny.�

�Bull Shit! You just like your cage! If you really didn�t need to be bound to her you would have left and made something of yourself.� With that Naruto threw another punch only to be caught by Neji. He pulled the blond to him and pressed against him tightly.

�My honor holds me back!� Eyes blazing, Neji continued. �Honor keeps me in my cage!�

�And I repeat� Bull Shit!� Naruto body was tense; he didn�t try to pull away and just stared at him in his eyes.

�She�s nothing� Whatever Neji planned to say next was cut off when Naruto head butted his nose. Blood was spouting everywhere and the pale-eyed boy�s hands went to his nose.

�You�re nothing!� Naruto said in a strained voice. �How�s your honor now?�

He left Neji where he had fallen. He left the stunned and bloody boy with a lot to think about.

Naruto saw a teacher on his way out and said, �Sensei, there�s a boy over there that needs help.� He pointed absently over to the place where he left the jackass, and then he walked home to release the remaining anger in his system.

~*~

�It was strange. It was like he released me from my anger.� Neji said thoughtfully to Sasuke. �All I needed was a good ass kicking.�

Sasuke smirked at that and waited for Neji to continue. �We became friends. It was awkward at first. The next day he came right up to me and asked if I was ok and if we can be friends;� He laughed a little. �That�s was the kind of person he is. Kicking my ass one minute then asking to be my friend the next.� He paused for a moment, and then added, �I didn�t know why people didn�t like him�well, he was annoyingly happy all the time, but he wasn�t that bad to be considered a loser. He just took the taunts and teases and the harassment and bullying. He�s a way better person than I am.�

While Neji got ready for his outing with Naruto, Sasuke was absorbing the information about the Dobe.

~*~

�Happy? Can I get dressed now?� Naruto ask his unresponsive friend. Getting no answer he went about his business.

Garra�s eyes narrowed as he watched Naruto get ready. He didn�t like the part of the story when Neji was pressed against his friend. He wondered if Neji would be a problem.
