You were at the Hyuga house, taking care of Neji after that mission that left him seriously injured. The brunette, always stubborn and headstrong, often refused to let you remove his bandages to heal him, insisting that he was fine. You knew he did it so you wouldn't worry, but you couldn't ignore that deep down, his pride prevented him from accepting help.

That day was no different. Entering his room, you found him trying to remove the bandage with his mouth, struggling in a vain effort.

“D-damn…” He complained, releasing the bandage from his teeth as he frowned, visibly frustrated.
