A/N: I know that in the Naruto-Verse there's no High School after the academy, but let's just say in my story there is after the Chunnin Exams.

"talking"

26 year old Tenten smiled slightly to herself as she watched her young daughter and son eat their dinner. They look like angels. This won't last long. She chuckled slightly.
Her daughter looked at her expectantly, "What's so funny, Kaa-san?"
Tenten smiled and shook her head slowly, "Nothing."
One year after Tenten and Neji got married when they were 20, on her twenty-first birthday, she received news from Sakura that she was indeed one month pregnant with her, now 5-year-old daughter, Kimiko. A short year later, her baby boy, Akihiko, was born. Kimiko was born as an exact replica as her mother, apart from father's Byakugan and her dark brown locks. Akihiko also had his father's Byakugan, but his hair was as chocolaty brown as his mother's. Both acted like their mother, but could be as quiet as their father. As stoic as Neji is he loves his wife and kids to death. He really is soft around them, especially his little princess.
After dinner, Kimiko looked up at her mother with slight tears in her eyes.
"Kaa-san, I miss Tou-san," she whispered.
"I do too, Kaa-san!" Akihiko chirped in. Neji was currently deployed on a long term mission. He wasn't set to come hope for another month. Tenten missed him desperately.
"I do too, Kimi-chan." She said.
A bright smile appeared on Kimiko's face as she whispered into her brother's ear. Akihiko smiled. "Hey Kaa-san..."
"Yes, Hiko-chan?"
"Say, Kaa-san, how did you and Tou-san fall in love?"
Tenten smiled. She motioned for them to sit down. "Well, kids, believe it or not, but your Kaa-san and Tou-san weren't the best of friends. Actually, I thought your Tou-san was the biggest jerk," she chucked slightly.

Tenten was nervous. It was her first day of her last year at Konoha High. To be honest, she didn't have many friends her age, but in the same grade, since Gai Sensei held them back one year for the Chunnin Exams. Apart from Rock Lee, her best friends were all one year younger. She was especially close to Hyuuga Hinata, the cousin of the jerk that she hated. Hyuuga Neji was, in her opinion, the biggest, most arrogant jerk in all of Konoha High. He knew he was good-looking, and he always used that against her. He didn't use his good-looks on girls, in fact he hated the girls that fawned all over him. But, he loved to tease her and bother her to no end. She hated that. She hated him, well, not really. She couldn't—they were teammates.
Tenten walked into her first class, only to find that the last seat left was next to her least favorite Hyuuga. She groaned inwardly. He smirked at her expression. As she took a seat, the bell rang. She waved slightly towards Hinata, Sakura, and Ino who were lucky enough to sit behind her. The teacher, Anko Sensei, clasped her hands together and said, "Welcome to Konoha History 101. Slowly look at the person next to you, because they will be your permanent project partners." Tenten groaned and Neji smirked once more. This is going to be one long year.
