A/N: This is for Shubhs, jcallie19 and -X-Shino-Is-Mine-X- … Thanks you so much for the reviews!
-:-:-:-:-:-HERE FOR YOU-:-:-:-:-:-
So you think you've got it all figured out
Well you know you can't make it alone
Everybody needs somebody to help them out
And you know I could be that someone
And if you ever get lost on life's highway
Don't know where to go
There's just one thing that I want you to know…

Of course he didn't need help. He was THE Hyuga Prodigy. The only branch member of his clan to be able to surpass the main family. He was the top rookie of their year. He always knew he could make it alone.
But this was a different matter. It was the Chuunin exams and he couldn't just walk in the final exams without training. Though he hated to admit it, he needed help. Help in his training.
He swallowed hard. Since Lee had been severely injured, and his teacher was busy taking care of him, there was only one more person he could train with. Somebody he never trained with before. And worse, she was a girl. But did he have any other choice? He sighed as he looked to the girl chucking kunais at a tree.
"Tenten?" he asked. She had just been released from the hospital but it seemed like she was doing pretty good.
"Hm?" tenten asked, looking at him.
"Well… as you know, the finals of the Chuunin exams are drawing near and…" Neji stopped. Was he really going to do this?
"Sure." Tenten said quietly, pulling out another kunai.
Neji raised an eyebrow.
"You want help, right? I can train with you."
Neji looked surprised. "Are you sure?"
"Uh huh…" tenten answered, nodding. "I wouldn't say yes if I wasn't, right?"
Neji smiled as he nodded his head. At that exact moment, dozens of weapons started pelting towards him.
He was lucky to have avoided them all.
He smirked. Maybe she wasn't so bad after all.
-:-:-:-
So now you've got it all figured out
And you know you've found someone that cares
And if you ever need somebody to help you out
Well you know I will always be there
And if you ever get lost on life's highway
Don't know where to go
There's just one thing that I want you to know…
-:-:-:-
Neji was the Hyuga prodigy. He understood that. But it was only now that he realized, no matter how good a person was, they would always need help.
The sun had started to rise, its early light touching the forest.
He sighed. He had only two more weeks left to train before the final exams. And she was late. It was the 2nd time he would have to take the Chuunin exams and he didn't want to fail again.
Tenten had become his sparring partner ever since he had asked her to train with him before.
Neji groaned in frustration. Where was she?
"Hey Neji."
Neji looked at where the voice had come from. "your late."
"Sorry!" Tenten answered, bowing her head.
"Hn." NEji answered, standing up. "I'll never be able to defeat my opponent in this situation. I need to be stronger."
Tenten chuckled as she readied her scrolls. "That's the reason I'm here, right?"
Neji smiled. At that exact moment, a hundred weapons pelted towards him. Déjà vu much?
The weapons were flying towards him, fast. But not fast enough. They all fired back as they hit Neji's kaiten.
Their fight continued for minutes until Neji found himself facing her again. Tenten quickly took out a kunai and pinted it to his back.
Neji saw her eyes widen as she felt cold metal pressed against her neck.
Neji smirked as he stepped back. "I win again."
"Hmph," Tenten said, she was about to walk back when she noticed blood oozing out of his right shoulder.
"Neji!" Tenten shouted holding up his hand. "your wounded!"
"It's nothing," He said as he tried to pull his hand away. But Tenten gripped it tightly.
"Come on," she said walking towards her bag. "I've got bandages."
Neji smiled.
In his whole life, he never knew anyone would care.
-:-:-:-
So you think that love is long overdue
Tired of looking for someone to care
Let me tell you now the choice is up to you
But you know I will always be there
I am here for you, always here for you
When you're needin' someone to hold you
Remember I told you
I am here for you
I am here for you
-:-:-:-
NEJI POV
I'm the Hyuga Prodigy. Yes, I always knew that.
But I never knew… I would fall in love.
I mean, how could I? In my whole life, no one ever seemed to care. I grew up never knowing how it felt like to be loved by my parents… even friends… But everything changed when she came along. With her kind, brown eyes and that hair tied up into buns. She didn't chase me around like all those annoying fan girls. Instead, she showed how much she cared in ways which I greatly appreciate.
Yes, all my life… Tenten was always there. And it's about time… That I should be there for her, too.
I smiled as I slowly stuffed my hand inside my pocket. I pulled out a small, white box and opened it. There it was. I looked at it one last time. It's small diamond sparkling as I brought it out to the light…
Now all she needs to do is say yes.
END
A/N: AW…. XD… I really like this chapter…. I can SOOO envision it in my mind… And if some of you don't get it, neji's gonna propose to Tenten! :D, And of course, she's gonna say yes! Haha… :D
