[Naruto][Sakura Haruno x Neji Hyuuga][Set Gamma]
Fandom: Naruto
Pairing: Sakura Haruno x Neji Hyuuga
Theme Set: Gamma
Rating: PG-13 (For inappropriate language and slight sexual references)
.o1 - Ring
Sakura could destroy anything with a punch for sure, but when making sure her boyfriend did what he was told, there were other methods to do this (“If you don’t start washing the dishes now I swear I’ll use that keychain ring to choke you.”)
.o2 - Hero
She didn’t need a hero, but at least he’d be there to help when she fell.
.o3 - Memory
Being the elite ninjas they were, there were often times when they were apart, but they he had the warm smile in his memory while she had the soft smirk of confidence in hers.
.o4 - Box
When he presented her with a small velvety cube, Sakura was sure that it was a dream; thankfully, it wasn’t (though Neji had to go through hell to get the courage to ask her.)
.o5 - Run
Her feet pounded against the ground as fast as she could; he was dying, and only she knew why.
.o6 - Hurricane
Looking around the torn up room, Naruto stared at Neji and whistled, “Damn man! She must’ve really whipped up a storm this time!”
.o7 - Wings
Neji raced towards the gates of Konoha to home, to friends, to her; it was like he sprouted wings to fly there.
.o8 - Cold
As Sakura shivered in the dead of night, she quietly whispered, “I-I’m cold…” Neji came up from behind, hugging her, and then huskily whispering in her ear, “I bet I can keep you warm.”
.o9 - Red
Neji couldn’t see the crimson liquid flowing into her clothes, as it was hidden by the color of her shirt, but when she collapsed and he had to leave the team behind to get her to a hospital, he wondered if he noticed too late.
.1o - Drink
He casually tossed her a bottle of water when she crushed it in her bare hand (it was the time of month), signifying to Neji that it was time to back away very slowly.
.11 - Midnight
As Sakura stared into her lover’s eyes, she noticed on how they were like the shining against a black velvet sky in the dead of night.
.12 - Temptation
His teeth ground together in an attempt to resist the urge of feeling her well-toned legs.
.13 - View
While he was denying himself something wonderful, he had to admit that the view of them alone was perfect.
.14 - Music
Sakura couldn’t sing to save her life, (which Neji found out unfortunately) but whenever he came home from a particularly dreary mission, her saying, “Welcome home,” was like hearing her sing an enchanted string of notes.
.15 - Silk
Her hands played through his coffee-colored locks, and she wondered if any fabric could imitate the smooth flow feeling of his hair.
.16 - Cover
His body enveloped hers, shielding her from any wandering eyes.
.17 - Promise
It was a strange twist of roles; Neji making Sakura swear to come back alive after getting back Sasuke.
.18 - Dream
The marriage, the parties, the honeymoon, all of that wasn’t real; this is exactly why she was surprised when he told her that it had just happened yesterday.
.19 - Candle
He was like a slowly dying flicker without her; she gave him the strength to become a roaring fire.
.2o - Talent
Her eye twitched for days when she finally saw what Neji’s “talent” was: knitting.
.21 - Silence
His heart could not take the absence of her laughter and jokes; he was alone all over again.
.22 - Journey
They would complete the quest of being together someday.
.23 - Fire
His eyes watched her fight on the sidelines, with the burning intensity of needing to be somewhere else.
.24 - Strength
As Sakura laid her head on his chest and cried, she finally realized that it was Neji who gave her the courage to move on from him.
.25 - Mask
He frowned when he saw her smile; it was that plastic one, the one she slipped over when she didn’t want anyone to worry about her.
.26 - Ice
Sakura nearly shivered when she fist saw him; his eyes were like frozen hatred.
.27 - Fall
She couldn’t believe he was doing the impossible: making her fall for him.
.28 - Forgotten
“You remember me?” she asked, pulling a strand of her bubblegum hair while thinking if it was because of that.
.29 - Dance
She stared in awe as he moved gracefully through the Juken style; could she learn to move like that?
.3o - Body
Neji’s fingers gently traced the curve of her body as he wondered if she was always that beautiful.
.31 - Sacred
Their love was something special, protected; he would be damned if it fell apart just because Sasuke came back.
.32 - Farewells
She stared down at him, quietly whispering, “Sayonara, Sasuke-kun,” as she turned and headed back to Neji.
.33 - World
As Sakura snuggled into Neji’s deep embrace, she heard him quietly say to her, “It’s our world now,” - thinking that Orochimaru and the Sound country were defeated, she supposed he was right.
.34 - Formal
“Neji-kun, I love you, but if you think you can make me wear that gaudy wedding kimono for rehearsal, you’re insane.”
.35 - Fever
His face was aflame as he saw her standing in a bikini when she had the nerve to come over and declare, “Ne, Neji-kun, I think you’re sick.”
.36 - Laugh
He shivered when he heard her let out a cackle; it was like she planned for his torture long ago.
.37 - Lies
“I’m tired of your bullshit - do you love me or not?!” - Sakura stared back with crying eyes, and whispered, “I don’t know yet.”
.38 - Forever
As he leaned his head on her small frame, he thought that the moment had better last for eternity, or else some higher above deities were going to get beaten.
.39 - Overwhelmed
She curled up into a ball, her emotions overwhelming her - did she love Neji, or did she still love him?
.4o - Whisper
Sakura lifted her head to the sky and quietly uttered, “I do love you Neji,” - once he woke up the next day, he had thought he heard her next to him.
.41 - Wait
The tables had finally turned for her when it was she who said, “Neji-kun, you better damn well wait for me to get back, lest you want me to hurt you again.”
.42 - Talk
Her mouth formed into a cute pout, “Why don’t you get your mouth open once in a while Neji? I get tired of listening to myself chat with a rock.”
.43 - Search
Neji hid behind the bushes; she was using that sing-song voice, no doubt looking for him to do the dishes (it wasn’t his fault that he was a guy!).
.44 - Hope
She was tired of praying, tired of wishing for something that would never happen; he showed her that those wishes came true.
.45 - Eclipse
Sakura looked at the letter, “What would you do if the world ended during a solar eclipse?” - taking her pen, she answered, “Make sure I kissed that white-eyed bastard.”
.46 - Gravity
He couldn’t stay away from her; they were being pulled to one another automatically.
.47 - Highway
Neji thought of the old saying, “It’s my way or the highway,” and laughed; it was more like, “It’s their way, too bad.”
.48 - Unknown
Staring down into her eyes while making love to her, he wondered what exactly he still didn’t know about her.
.49 - Lock
In bed, she took his hand in hers and said to him, “Don’t worry, your heart’s locked safe inside me.”
.5o - Breathe
He placed his lips on hers, trying to get her chest to move up and down once again (“Dammit Sakura, open your eyes.”)
