Kisses: NejiTen-Comfortable

Number Three of the 1000 Kisses Art, Neji and Tenten- Comfortable

Comfortable Kiss-
This is the type of one that to matter what you trust each other completely, you know that they would never hurt you intentionally an you can trust them with anything. This is the type of kiss you see from people who have know each other for such a long while that the relationship just falls into place without any effort from either side. You can just pull them over to you and kiss them, knowing that they believe in you no matter what you do to them.
I think this kiss is by far the hardest to acchieve and those who have it are as lucky and clueless as hell, it takes a lot to fully trust someone without a doubt, and it's normally people who have been friends forever that can get this one.
You know that you can be kissing one second and sparing the nest and know that no matter what they will protect you, your heart and your body, because it's such an easily loving relationship. You don't even know that you've already forgiven them when they mess up, nor do you know when the love began, but you know it's there.
Even if you dont' find eachother in a truely romantic relationship, that eternal bond will always be there.
Tenten's arm is between her and Neji's chest, which many people may consider to mean that there isn't as much trust, but I drew the picture in the way that she is going to move her arms around his neck. I can see the Weapon's Mistress bringing Neji to her and then resting her hand on his shoulder, I know Neji would be able to kiss her as well, but for this kiss it seems to be more of her doing.
And notice how she isn't nervous at all? And neither is he, it's just like another think that they have together, after sparring and missions and being Ninja, there is still somethign there, a web to catch them when they fall. A safetly net, it's not desperately there for them to cling to, but they both know they'll never fall.

Reason for the couple:
Okay I'm going to need to copy and paste everything from above.
The ONE Kunoichi he respects, and the one man who she could ever really respect as her equal. She called Sasuke cool, but that was only because she wasn't used to such flashy other moves, the three of them are the Taijutsu team, they don't use many 'techniues'.
Which is probably where the trust came from, all the bruises and cuts that they caused each other just strengthened over time until he didn't flinch when the Kunai whipped past him, missing by an inch to hit the bulls-eye beside his head and she learned to grin and bear it when he used his chakra to shut down her veins and movement. She knew he could help her perfect her techniques and still get a gtood work out from it, and he knew that if he ever needed an estra opinion on something (though he probably wouldn't come right out and ask) she was there to give it.
He saved her millions of times, and I bet it's the same the other way around, Neji doens' t seem the type to trust anyone unless he's known them forever and can tell his moods. Tenten is probably just THAT observant, because lets face it, she has to be when she's a weapons' mistress, I mean one movement of the arm and she has to re-calculate everything to fit where the other is going to move. So she can probably tell Neji's expressions and moods just fine by now...

The sketch....
Neji didn't turn out too bad for my first time drawing him!
To tell the truth I AM disappointed I mean... Tenten is hunching over slightly, but hey, no kiss is perfect...
So her hair is fabuous because I found a new way to do it!
And I like the colors, Silver and a light warm brown, I can see Tenten as a warm rich chocolate color, that is something everyone is comfortable and can enjoy. Neji is a metallic silver, something stunning to look at but oddly distant, yet side by side she seems to warm him and that silver becomes less dull and more shiney!

The background?
Heh... um....
Would you settle for a failed attempt at silver skuriken and little sparkles of Chakra?
*sweatdrop* yeah I didn't think so...
But... um... they... shimmer.. yesh it is a 'omg sparkles and bubbles; moment...
I'll just stick with that....

Kishimoto owns them, I own nothing....
