Chinese Translation

"Neji!" Tenten chirped cheerfully as she reached the training grounds.

"TENTEN, MY YOUTHFUL BLOSSOM, HOW ARE YOU DOING!"

"Fine Lee, thanks! Neji!" she chirped again ditching Lee.

Poor Lee.

Neji opened an eye, "Hn."

She beamed, "Ni hao!" 你好

He opened both eyes, "Wha?"

"Ni hao! It's 'hello' in Chinese!"

"OOH! I KNOW CHINESE TOO!" Lee exclaimed appearing next to the bun haired brunette.

Neji's eye twitched.

"Jin tian te bie hao, ni jue de ne?" Tenten asked in Chinese. 今天特别好, 你觉的呢?

"Today is very nice, don't you agree?" Lee translated.

Neji blinked.

Tenten grinned, "Ni ting de dong ma?" 你听的懂吗?

"Do you understand?"

Neji blinked again.

"TENTEN MY YOUTHFUL BLOSSOM, WE HAVE FOUND A WAY TO DEFEAT MY ARCH RIVAL, HYUUGA NEJI!"

"Shut up Lee, I'm not interesting in kicking Neji's ass!"

Which left Lee to sulk near the sakura tree.

Tenten returned her gaze to Neji, "Do you wanna learn Chinese?"

"No."

"Whaaat? Zhong weng hen jian dan de!" 中文很简单的!

"Chinese is very easy," Lee translated as he stopped sulking and rejoined Tenten.

Neji raised an eyebrow, "On the contrary, I believe Chinese is one of the most complicated languages?" (A/N WOOT, I KNOW ONE OF THE MOST COMPLICATED LANGUAGES!)

"Nah."

(A/N DANGIT!)

"Okay so maybe it is," Tenten said after some consideration, "Okay anyway, I'll teach you some Chinese!"

"…"

"Yi, are, san, shi, wu, liu, qi, ba, jiu, shi!"

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten."

"Ni hao, zai jian." 你好, 再见

"Hello, goodbye."

"Wo shi ni de peng you!" 我是你的朋友

"I am your friend!"

Tenten blinked before turning to Lee, "Lee, don't translate what I'm about to say, 'kay?"

Lee nodded absentmindedly, while staring at Sakura with Sasuke.

Of course, when Lee is nodding absentmindedly, we know he won't do what he was asked.

Unfortunately poor Tenten didn't notice.

Tenten smiled slightly as she looked Neji straight in the eye and blushed.

She had to say it sometime.

So why not say it in a language he couldn't understand?

"Cong wu sui de shi hou, wo ben lai jiu kai shi ai ni le!" 从五岁的时后, 我本来就开是爱你了!

"Ever since we were five I've loved you ever since," Lee translated immediately.

Tenten's blush increased tenfold, "LEE!"

Neji smirked, "Oh you did, did you?"

Lee blinked, "What, was I not supposed to translate your confession of your undying love for the Hyuuga prodigy?"

"LEE YOU SUCK!"

"NO ONE ON OUR TEAM SUCKS!" Gai interjected.

"GAI-SENSEI!"

"LEE!"

"GAI-SENSEI!"

"LEE!"

Sunset, waves, rock, hug, you know the drill, right?

Tenten bit her lip as she rushed off to another area in the forest.

And Neji, being the selfish, arrogant, cold hearted, hot (A/N I had to say that.), self centered bastard followed her.

….

Wait, that doesn't make sense at all.

"Tenten."

Neji stopped a couple of yards away from Tenten who was sitting on a rock, her back towards him.

"Neji, leave me alone. I don't feel like talking."

And Neji, being the uncaring, unfeeling, conceited guy he is decided to stay and approach her.

…

Okay nothing I'm saying is adding up today.

"Tenten…"

"Just leave me alone!"

"Wo ye ai ni." 我也爱你

Tenten stood up and turned around, "You understand Chinese?"

He smirked.

She smiled slightly, "You know Neji… I do love you," she said as she approached him.

In one swift motion, Neji caught her in a hug, "I love you," he murmured before capturing her lips in a kiss.

Once they broke apart, Tenten smirked, "I thought you didn't understand Chinese?"

The smirk on his face widened.

"I never said I didn't understand."
