Yet another NejiTen one-shot/drabble from me. I was cleaning through my external HD when I stumbled upon this fiction's file. I don't remember exactly when I wrote this, and what occasion spur me and inspire me to write this but nevertheless I hope you will enjoy this piece. For someone who doesn't even remember she wrote this piece, I was pleasantly surprised at myself so I hope you guys will like this too. Please review and tell me what you think.
Disclaimer: I wish I owned Naruto so that I can make NejiTen the main characters...
Conundrum
by HimeHikari
She had always been a silent observer.
She had realized aeons ago that the Hyuuga heiress harboured feelings for the loud-mouthed and impetuous blonde ninja.
Although she was never formally acquainted with the Nara genius, she had always notice the 'different' air around the couldn't-care-less genius whenever Yamanaka Ino was involved.
She also frequently noticed Haruno Sakura subtle gestures of uncertainty whenever she is around Uchiha Sasuke.
And she definitely noticed that the previously expressionless Uchiha Sasuke will look at Haruno Sakura with affection discreetly without the pink-haired medic-nin and the other clueless shinobis and kunoichis of Konoha realising.
However, Tenten was always slightly clueless when it comes to herself.
She never noticed how 90 of the male population in Konoha were always admiring her beauty whenever she walked in the busy streets o Konoha.
She never noticed that she has indeed blossomed into a beautiful wild flower that could only be tamed by one person.
And she was and will always be unaware on how 99.99 of the male population in Konoha would never stare at her whenever Hyuuga Neji was with her.
"Tenten," his smooth voice called out to her, pulling her back to reality.
It was already dark. The sun had already disappeared from the horizon and colourful lights of the busy street of the village replaced the eye of heaven in illuminating the night.
The view mesmerized her. It was not everyday that a shinobi could enjoy the peaceful and beautiful view of Konoha. It is especially not a luxury for a Jounin like her and Neji.
Suddenly she felt warm calloused hand on hers, lightly pulling up from her sitting position.
"It's getting late," was only the reply she got from the Hyuuga genius when she quirked a questioning eyebrow.
A person can only be that oblivious. She didn't need Haruno Sakura to literally scream into her ears about it. And she surely appreciates Yamanaka Ino's intention, but she was sure she didn't need to learn the art of seduction for it.
They walked to the town area, her hand still safely in Neji's.
She smiled silently. She knew she had a special place in Neji's heart. She's not that dense.
She knew, because Neji had a special place in her heart as well.
