Purestrongpoem: I don't own Naruto's characters. Tenten is a little OOC at the end. I am so happy that somebody want to translate this story into Russian. Enjoy.
Untold Love
The war was done and the united shinobis won. However there were many dead. Neji laid dead under a sheet. He had died an honourable death sacrificing himself to save Naruto and Hinata. The former team ten, his sister and Naruto stood beside the body. Lee and Hinata was crying their eyes out while Naruto also had tears but remained silent. Gai stood there, comforting Lee and Hinata. Tenten was silent. For some reason, she couldn't cry. She heard Gai saying, "Don't cry. Neji was a great hero." Naruto said, "Yes. He is not dead but we will always remember him in our hearts." Hinata said, "Thank you for everything. We never forget you." Slowly, one by one, everyone left except Tenten.
Tenten stood there staring at the white sheet. She lifted the sheet up to see Neji's face. She stared at it for a long time. Finally, she spoke, "Neji, why did you have to die? Now I am going to regret this." She remembered the times in the past where team ten was happy. They did missions, fight, cried, were happy, sad together. Lee was the annoying but never gave up ninja while Neji was the genius. Lee was always challenging Neji for a fight so that he could beat Neji. Even through Neji was annoyed, he accepted. Tenten was glad to see her friends get along especially Neji and Lee. They were opposites and she thought they would never get along. However, they were the best friends. She was envious of their relationship. She had always admired Neji. He was a genius and the best. When he fight, talked, trained, her heart skipped a beat. She knew this feeling and it was love. She loved Neji but was too shy and afraid to tell him. She observed him to see if he like her too but she doesn't know. Whenever she decided to tell him, she changed her mind in the last minute. Tenten told herself that this was foolishness. She had fought enemies, and went on missions by herself. Why was she scared? Finally, she told herself that she will confessed to Neji after the war. The war was now done but Neji was dead. She had never expected to see that happen. She was so stupid. Of course it would happen, it was war and people died in wars. She regretted not telling him but most of all she want to know Neji's answer. Now she will never know if Neji loved her or not. She laughed bitterly. It was too late now. She wished she could go back in time and prevented all of this from happening. She looked down at Neji. He seemed so peaceful and happy. Did he love her? Was he also afraid of telling her that he loved her? If so, did he regretted it? The loss of Neji hit her the most. She bend down, hesitated and kissed his lips. It was cold and she could tasted her tears. She was now crying and the tears rushed out. She whispered, "I love you." Then she broke down and sobbed. When she finished, she laid the sheet back on top of Neji. She looked up and the sun was shining brightly as if it was making fun of her misery. She shouted, "I LOVE YOU!" She was silent waiting for an answer but nothing happened. She felt a breeze tickling her and the birds chirping quietly. She walked away. Finally, she could tell him but now it was too late. She would never know. He would never know.
