Tenten is the girl next door, a naruto fanfic

Tenten glared towards the pink-haired female ninja sitting next to her in the ramen shop.

"Sakura, I can't believe you were chosen as Homecoming Queen!! I mean really, that's so awesome for you!" Ino smiled as the mention of the recent ceremony.

Small town homecoming queen
She's the star in this scene
There's no way to deny she's lovely

Inside of Tenten, there was a rage of jealousy of Sakura. Sakura had everything she ever wanted, and was considered the most attractive female ninja ever.

Perfect skin, perfect hair

Her skin was free of acne and other blemishes, and her shiny pink hair was free of oil and build up.

Perfumed hearts everywhere

Tenten could have sworn she had seen pink, heart-shaped bubbles made of perfume floating around her.

Tell myself that inside she's ugly

Even though it was unknown to Tenten, Sakura had her innervoice, which was her only flaw.

Maybe I'm just jealous
I can't help but hate her

Secretly I wonder if my boyfriend wants to date her

But of course, she had Rock Lee. He loved her since the day he met her, but she wasn't even interested…on the outside, anyway. Tenten had seen the way she looked at him, and gave him secret smiles. Tenten also admired Lee, but he was the one guy she couldn't have.

She is the prom queen I'm in the marching band
She is a cheerleader I'm sitting in the stands
She gets the top bunk I'm sleeping on the floor
She's Miss America and I'm just the girl next door

"Hey Tenten, we're going shopping, you wanna come?" Sakura asked.

"No thanks," Tenten said coldly.

"Okay then, see you later." Ino waved, and Hinata gave her a smile before walking beside them.

Senior class president
She must be heaven sent
She was never the last one standing
A backseat debutant
Everything that you want
Never to harsh or too demanding
Maybe I'll admit it
I'm a little bitter
Everybody loves her but I just wanna hit her

Tenten always imagined that her training dummy was Sakura when she was out training. She would throw sinbon, kunais, and use taijutsu against it.

She is the prom queen I'm in the marching band
She is a cheerleader I'm sitting in the stands
She gets the top bunk I'm sleeping on the floor
She's Miss America and I'm just the girl next door
Oh and I'm just the girl next door

I don't know why I'm feeling sorry for myself

Tenten had depression come over after the chunin exams. Sakura had done so much better than her, and had earned her rival's respect. Not only that, but she had also earned Lee's love.

I spend all my time wishing that I was someone else…

She is the prom queen I'm in the marching band…

She is a cheerleader I'm sitting in the stands…

"Hey Tenten, when we were out, we got you something!" Ino cheered as she, Sakura, and Hinata re-entered the ramen shop. She held up a new kunai pack.

I get a little bit,

"Yeah, I got two of those, plus these new earrings!" Sakura squealed as she held up pink cherry blossom earrings that matched her silky hair perfectly.

She gets a little more

She's Miss America and... She's Miss America

Tenten lost control. In a flash second, she slammed her fist into Sakura's mouth, leaving a nasty bruise. Tenten went wide-eyed as Ino glared at her, and tears filled Sakura's eyes and Hinata merely covered her mouth in surprise.

"Tenten, what was that for!?" Ino shouted. "Come on Sakura, we're going to get that cleaned up."

Sakura nodded as a tear slid down her cheek and she held her bleeding lower lip.

Tenten sighed as she sat back down.

I'm just the girl next door...
