" Life's If's and But's "
This is a story I wrote for all the people who let the if's and but's of life get in their ways. Neji and Team Guy in this story are twenty-five,making the rookie nine twenty-four.
DISCLAIMER:I do't own Naruto,if I did I'd be living in a mansion.

It was amazing,truly amazing how,how in just five minutes your whole life can drastically spin outta control,go from fantastic to horrible in just five terrible freakin minutes.
It was bound to happen with jobs like theirs,they both knew that. He just didn't expect it to happen at now of all times,the day before their wedding.
Then again he also expected him to be the one in surgery dying. For her to be safe and sound crying over him.
This wasn't supposed to happen. Not like this. Not now. Not ever.
He didn't care what it took,she was gonna live. He'd pay for the best treatment money could buy.
If she made it.
There always were the little if's and but's in our lives. Those little things that hold us back so we don't live our lives to the fullest. He had held back telling her he loved her for thirteen long years,even though he had had feelings for her since the first day he met her. The one little if that held him back was,"If I tell her will she hate me?"
Ironic how that was the same question that held her back.
Now his fairy-tale seemed like it was gonna end short.
He should of been there with her but he had gotten hurt on his last mission and couldn't come.
If he hadn't gotten hurt he could of protected her.
Another one of life's cruel if's. But he couldn't change it. This wasn't one of those movies where the hero could go back and time and fix everything. No. He'd have to live with what happenedhere the rest of hislife.
As he sat in the cold waitig room though,he couldn't help but think back to when he first engaged to her.

Flashin' Back
For Neji Hygua,what was supposed to be the best night of his life started out terrible. He was going to propose to Tenten tonight,but how could he now? They had gotten into a fight and he knew it was his fault but his pride wouldn't let him apologize. He had done something completely stupid and jumped to conclussions.
He had beat up her brother.
Of course at the time he didn't know he was her brother,he thought he was some guy hitting on her.
Anyways,now they were seated in the resturaunt across from each other stubbornly not saying a word. He tried placing his hand on hers and was met with a slap. "Okay,I guess I deserved that..," he said rubbing his stinging face.
"Yes you did Neji! I can't believe you'd beat up my brother! How coul-" She was stopped when he gently pressed his lips to hers.
"You always have talked to much..." He mumbled as he pulled away. "I'm sorry Tenten... I love you.."
As he said this he gently slipped a ring on her finger."Will you marry me?"
At this he was met with a a screamed 'YES' and a tight hug. Everyone was starring at them,but he didn't care. He'd never been happier.
