Parry Hotter and the Drabble's Stone
So, remember when I said earlier that I was only upset about not being chosen for the play? Well, early, early this morning, it finally hit me and I started crying. I'm just really upset... -sigh- Of course, I can blame it on the fact that I frustrated and tired and just wanted to sleep on top of it all AND I just started my period.
But... man, I'm so glad my mom didn't make me go to school today. I would have been a horrible mess. I don't think I could have dealt with seeing all of the people who DID make it. It just makes me feel like utter crap...
Anyway, this drabble was written in Spanish CLASS again. (Hehe, Maggie, not in another language. :P) It was also written before I knew that Sasuke had made Neji cry... ;___; I really should pay attention in that class... but we're only reviewing and I know everything basically already that he's going over. I just have to study my old notes from last year.
Oh well.

Neji had never been to the cinema as a kid. It was considered “useless”, a luxury not needed in the Hyuuga family. When he had gotten older, however, he heard about it from the other ninja. Stories telling of how great it was, and how even he-stoic and not much for entertainment-would love it.
Hinata-sama had been enchanted by the theatre the first time Naruto took her there. It had been her third date with him, and Neji remembered her returning with this dreamy smile on her face and her eyes shining. It had looked like she had the time of her life, and whenever he would ask her about it, she would blush and say that it had been a really sweet story.
Lee had called it a “youthful experience filled with flaming passion!” He had taken Sakura there for their fifth date and had done nothing but rave about the movie they saw for several days afterward. It had been about some kingdom and a ninja that had to infiltrate it to kill the princess, but he had ended up falling in love instead… Neji thought it sounded rather over the top, but Lee assured him otherwise.
So, when he took Tenten out on a date, taking her to the cinema seemed like a logical option. Except he ended up not enjoying the experience very much. The “flaming passion” part of Lee’s speech had suddenly made sense to him as he spent the better part of the movie lip locked with the brunette. That was not a bad thing, exactly, but he could think up a lot of things to do instead of making out in a theatre for over an hour.
Suffice to say, he did not remember what the movie was about.
When he started seeing Sasuke, though, they were limited on places they could go on ‘dates’. Going out anywhere together was risky when their relationship was still private, but neither of them were particularly fond of the idea of staying in all the time. And when Sasuke offhandedly mentioned that they should see a movie together, Neji had not really been thrilled at the idea but had agreed nonetheless. After all, he could see the logic. The theatre was dark and nobody would know they were together if they arrived at different times.
It was… different that time around. Sasuke was nothing like Tenten. He did not even attempt to hold his hand during the movie; instead, his eyes were solely focused on the screen the whole time. The movie was completely different as well. There was no heavily sugary orchestral music; instead, the music was fast paced and upbeat in a dangerous way. Every fight scene was accompanied by Sasuke muttering, “This is so fake”, but Neji could tell that he was enjoying it nonetheless because of the present half-smirk and the way his eyes never left the actors’ faces.
When it was over and Neji was walking him back to his apartment, Sasuke asked him how he liked the movie. It was then that Neji realized that he could not remember a single thing that happened in the movie, but he remembered every expression that Sasuke made.
“You’re supposed to watch the screen,” the younger boy muttered, silently laughing at him. Apparently, he had known the whole time where his eyes were focused.
Neji blushed and said, “But the show I got was better.”
