There had been only enough time to let out a quiet breath before she heard the lock slide out of place and watched as the knob slowly turn from the other side. But for a brief moment while she was still cast in the shadows of the fading evening, Tenten could only hope that it had been nothing but a simple misunderstanding. That Naruto had only overstepped a unspoken line in his inebriation that could easily be fixed. Because they had a lot of history. Because they were all friends.
Because she could not bring herself to think what would become of them all if that changed.
Neji and Naruto always held their differences, after all. But they had only been in one other fight. A fight that, strangely enough, began their friendship. In the very school that held their second scuffle only days before. Surely...
But there was no time to finish that thought as she was bathed in light and the cool wave of the other's voice.
"Neji," she greeted in return, her voice light and her lips quirking in a small smile. And paused in entering his apartment to really get a good look at the damage that was done. "Wow. He definitely got in a good shot at you. Then again, I guess he was just returning the favor, huh?"
