-:-:-:-:-:-MARY'S SONG (OH MY, MY, MY)-:-:-:-:-:-
She said I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars would shine in the sky, the pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us,
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said "Oh, my, my, my"
Take me back to the house and the backyard trees
Said you'd beat me up you were bigger than me, you never did… you never did
Take me back when our world was one lot bad
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I, oh my, my, my, my

The 7 year old girl happily trotted down to the kitchen. She grinned brightly as she saw the banner hanging on the wall. "Happy Birthday Tenten!"
"Tenten!" She heard her mother call. "Coming mom." She answered as she skipped to the dining room. Her eyes widened as she saw the food served on the table.
"Happy Birthday!" Her mom shouted gleefully, pulling her to a tight hug.
"Thanks ma!" She answered, happily.
"Hey there Hon." Tenten turned her head to see her father enter the kitchen with a boy.
"Hi dad!" Tenten answered back running to her father and giving him a hug.
"Happy Birthday Honey." Her father said.
Tenten grinned and looked at the boy. The boy just stared at them curiously.
"I saw him outside, It appears that he's Hinata's cousin so I invited him in." Her father said, explaining.
Tenten nodded as she eyed the boy. He had long black hair falling to his back and white eyes, just like Hinata's but with a tint of lavender in them.
"Now, why don't you lead him to the backyard? All of your friends are already there."
"Alright mom!" Tenten said heading out the kitchen.
Neji nodded and followed her.
"So… Hi!" Tenten said awkwardly, as she and the boy proceeded to the backyard.
"Hn."
"Uhm… Whats you name?"
"Neji."
"Oh… Where's your dad?"
"Hn."
"Um… Why were you outside? Did you come to see Hinata?"
"Hn"
"Don't you know any other word than that?"
"Hn."
"What does that mean?"
"Shut up."
Tenten was taken aback by his words. It was her birthday and nobody should treat her like that! "Hmph! Fine!" She said as she stomped ahead.
xOxOxOx
As soon as she and Neji reached the backyard all her friends, namely, Hianta, Ino, Sakura, Shikamaru, Kiba, Lee and Naruto bombarded her with hugs and gifts.
"So this is Neji!" She said as soon as she received all her gifts. "He's Hinata-chan's cousin!"
"Hi Neji!" They all said waving to him.
"Hn." Neji said, nodding.
Tenten headed to the left side of the backyard where the girls were telling stories while Neji headed to the right, towards the boys.
"oohh.. Hinata, I never knew that you cousin was cute!" Ino whispered.
"tsk. Cute?" Tenten said raising her eyebrows. She looked at Neji. He was just an ordinary person. Except… for his eyes. They were so pretty…
"Well he is!" Sakura said, defending her bestfriend. "Though I admit, he and Tenten look great together." Sakura said, while Ino giggled and Hinata smiled.
"We do not!" Tenten shouted in protest.
"Your blushing!" Ino said, teasing her.
Tenten sighed and sat wearily on the ground.
"Um… I-I think you bett-ter stop…" Hinata said, "It is her b-birthday after all…"
"You're right…" Sakura said, dropping to the ground. "Though I really wanna do something… fun…"
Ino cocked her head to the side, thinking. "I know!" She said, pulling the other girls and heading towards the boys. "Let's play Truth and Dare with the boys!"
Tenten sighed. Ino's ideas always brought trouble… tp her, at least.
xOxOxOx
Ino spinned the bottle for the fifth time. This time it pointed to Neji.
Ino smirked as she looked straight to the prodigy's eyes. "Truth or Dare?"
"…" He stared silently at her.. then "dare."
Ino's eyes widened in glee at the boy's choice. She smirked then whispered something to Sakura's ear which caused them both to giggle uncontrollably.
"Just give the dare now, ino!"
Ino nodded as she wiped the tear coming out of her eye.
"I dare you… to kiss Tenten!"
Tenten's eyes widened in surprise (O.O) while Neji just looked as stoic as ever.
"That's all?" He asked.
"What do you mean 'that's all'!?!?!" tenten yelled. "I'm too young to be kissed!!!!!"
"Hn." Neji said as he slowly stood up and walked towards her. It was a dare and he had to do it.
xOxOxOx
Tenten sighed wearily as she reread her entry for her 7th birthday.
Dear Diary.
Yippee! I'm seven years old tooday! All my friends came over and I met a guy named Neji. Ino says he looks good, but he looks like any other guy to me. Except for his eyes… They're rily pretty… It seemed like they wer shining…
Well… Ino dared him to kis me… But don't worry! I got away in time! ^_-
Tenten Jiao'rong
-:-:-:-
Well I was sixteen when suddenly I wasn't that little girl you used to see
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
They never believed we'd fall in love,
And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes, and said "Oh, my, my, my"
Take me back to the creek that's reaching dark,
2am riding in your truck, and all I need is you next to me…
-:-:-:-
Neji sat down with the others as they waited for Tenten to come. Ever since they had gone to her house 9 years ago, they had all become very good friends. And since none of them had seen her for 5 months, and since it was her 16th birthday, they had all decided to eat dinner together.
The door to the restaurant had barely opened when Ino Sakura and Hinata ran to it. "Happy Birthday Tenten!" Neji heard them say as they handed her their gifts.
Tenten hummed softly as she stopped at the restaurant they all agreed to meet in. Ever since they all had gone to her house 9 years ago, they had all become very good friends. Since she had been away for 5 months, and it was her 16th birthday, she had decided to eat dinner with them.
"happy Birthday tenten!" He heard them say when she walked in. He kept his eyes to the ground when he heard them walking towards the table.
"Hey guys!" He heard her say. Her voice was still the same. As cheerful and as kind as ever. His eyes were still on the ground so all he could see was her feet. She was wearing black flip flops.
"How are you my dear Tenten-chan?" Lee said, as enthusiastically as ever.
Slowly, Neji raised his eyes and he couldn't help but gasp.
Tenten was smiling as widely as ever, and she was wearing a blue, tight shirt, but what caught his attention the most was that her hair was actually out of its usual twin buns. It was tied into just one ponytail at the back of her head, her brown hair falling to her shoulders. And though he hated to admit it… She was… well… beautiful.
xOxOxOx
"Bye guys!" Tenten said brightly to her friends. It had been 3 hours since they met. And now, though none of them wanted to, they all had to go home.
"Bye!" Her friends answered back.
"Hn." Tenten smiled. 'I only know one person who speaks like that…' she thought as she turned around. She was right, there facing her was none other that Hyuga Neji.
"Hey Neji…" She said, smiling. "Aren't you going home yet?"
"Well…" Neji started, "I want to show you something…"
Tenten raised her eyebrow. She was sure she saw him blush. But since it was Neji… it must have been her imagination.
"Sure…" she answered, nodding her head.
Neji smiled as he took her hand and walked.
Tenten couldn't help but blush when his fingers touched hers. Though she never told anyone, she had always liked Neji. Ever since she met him 9 years ago…
xOxOxOx
Tenten couldn't help but gasp at the sight she saw. Neji had brought her to a small forest at the side of a park and when they got to a clearing, she found herself facing a small creek and beside it, a statue of an angel. The moon's light reflected on the creek and seemed to light up the small glade. Various flowers and plants grew at the side of it.
"It's beautiful…" She said, walking dream like towards the small creek.
"I knew you'd like it." Neji said as he walked beside her. "I haven't given you your gift yet."
Tenten raised her eyebrow. "A gift?"
"Here." He said handing her a small package wrapped in white ribbon. "Open it when you get home."
Tenten nodded. And looked up at him. "Thank you Neji…"
"You're welcome." He whispered inching towards her. And before she knew it, Tenten found herself wrapping her hands around his neck as they kissed deeply.
xOxOxOx
"Woah…" Ino said, whispering to Sakura as they hid behind a shrub. "When I said they looked good together before, I never knew they'd end up like that so soon."
Sakura nodded. When they had seen Neji talking to Tenten after their dinner, She and Ino, dragging along Hinata had decided to follow them and see what would happen. "But you must admit, they look so good together!" She said squealing.
"I-I think we n-need to go now…" Hinata whispered pulling the two.
"You're right." Ino said, dusting her skirt. "Let's give them some privacy."
xOxOxOx
Dear Diary,
I had so much fun with my friends today. We all ate dinner together. After that, Neji brought me to a small creek. It was so beautiful. But not as beautiful as the necklace he gave me. I never knew I'd end up with someone like him. We walked along the glaze, and before I knew it, it was already 2am.
His eyes were still shining.
Tenten
-:-:-:-
A few years ago when comin' round
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town then you looked at me,
Got down on one knee
Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mamas cried You said "I do…"
And I did too…
I still look at you like the stars that shine in the sky…
Oh, my, my, my…
-:-:-:-:-:-
Tenten flipped through the pages of her worn out diary. She kept it with her for so many years. And now, it was time to write on it again.
Dear Diary,
I've never been happier in all my life. We got married today. And after all this time…
His eyes still seem to shine.
Tenten Hyuga.
