Chapter 4: Anachronism
"Tenten, what I was trying to tell you earlier, is well, I-" Once again, Neji phone rang. He checked it and it said it was Hiasha. If this was Hanabi he would be so pissed off right now. "Hold on." He walked out the house and answered the phone. "Moshi moshi."
"Yes, Neji. I want you to come home early today so I can speak with you about your engagement." This time it accually was Hiashi. "More on the terms of I wouldn't mind talking to you right now about it."
"Hiashi-sama-"
"Neji, just come home. Put everything aside for now." He was getting annoyed by all the stupid interuptions and having people not let him finish his sentenses.
"But, I'm kind of busy at the moment."
"Like I said, put EVERYTHING aside for now and come home." Neji sighed. Inside his head was extremely pissed off.
"Yes, Hiashi-sama. I'm on my way."
"Ok then, I'll see you when you get here." And then they hung up. Neji walked back inside. He looked Tenten, whom of which was furious at the moment. She just wanted to know what the hell Neji's been trying to tell her.
"That was Hiashi-sama. I have to go. I'm sorry, but I'll talk to you later." Neji went to leave but Tenten wouldn't let him. He was trapped by her deadly glare.
"You're not going anywhere untill you tell me what the fuck you've been trying to say all day! It's so damn annoying to have you constantly run off! Just tell me what the hell you were trying to say and then I'll let you-" But this time, Tenten was the one cut off in midsentence. The diferance was, Neji didn't say anything. Instead, he gave her a passionent kiss on the lips.
"What I've been trying to say was, I love you Tenten. But now I have to go so bye." And then he ran out the door. Tenten was so happy yet so pissed off at the same time. But most of all she was depressed. Her heart was shattering on the spot. She had just heard that the love of her life is in love with her too, but he has to get married to some other woman. She walked up to her room as she felt tears trinkle down her cheeks.
"Why now!? Why does he have to get married now!? It's just not fair!" Tenten was crying her eyes out now. She picked up a picture she had taken with Neji and Lee. She was standing imbetween them. She noticed a small smile on Neji's face. This picture was taken about a year ago. It was the day that Tenten and Lee had became Jounin. Gai-sensei was so proud to see that at last all of his students have become Jounin. She put it back on her end table, face down. Then there was a knocking sound on her door. Tenten tried to hide the sadness in her voice. "Yes?"
"Ten, is everything okay? I heard you slam your door shut as if you were upset. Did something happen?" She knew he was going to find out she was crying so she had to let him in and tell him.
"Come in and I'll tell you." Ten'un walked in. He took one glance at his daughter's tear covered face and felt depressed just by looking at her. He sat down next to her and put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"Ten, sweatheart, what's troubling you?" She looked up at her dad. She sighed.
"Well you see it's Neji." Crap. He wasn't good with the whole boy talk thing. That's why he was glad that Tenten grew up as a tomboy. He dreadded that this day would come. But then again Tenten is 18 now.
"What about him?" She balled up her fist.
"The damned mother fucking bastard!" He heard her even though she had just whispered it, but she whispered it loudly and angrily.
"Ok, what did he do that earns him that title?" Tenten gritted her teeth. She stood up and started pacing.
"The self obsorbed ass messes with my head. He acts so calm but shows that something was obviously bothering him! So then, me being curious and caring, not to meantion insanely idiotic for doing so, I bugged him about it! So he says some things that upset me and hurt my feelings then I ran home. He shows up and explains that he's getting married! MARRIED! Then he tried telling me something super important but doesn't say anything and ditches me. Then he comes back and finally tells me. He tells me he LOVES me! Yes great and he kisses me so passionantly then leaves! LEAVES! He kisses me, tells me he loves me even though he has to get married, then just leaves me here to contemplate on whatever! Now I'm so confused on what to do!" After her little rant, Tenten gasped for air. "What should I do?" Ten'un looked at her. She sat down next to him. "Dad, I'm just so confused." Ten'un patted her on the back.
"It'll be alright Tenten, you'll see-" and she cut him off.
"Alright!? He's getting married, dad! That doesn't make everything alright!" He sighed.
"Can't they just call off the wedding if he's gotten a girlfriend?" She glared at him.
"Dad, they'd only except his girlfriend him she was another Hyuuga or some very rich and powerful person! But to except me!? I don't even belong to a clan! I have no last name! I would never belong! Me in the Hyuuga compound, maybe even becoming apart of the clan, ha! That's just the makes me the wrong thing in the wrong place at the wrong time! Me plus Hyuuga clan equals anachronism!" Tenten did make a good point. Her be excepted by the Hyuuga clan? Imposible.
"Ten-" He was cut off.
"Just let me be dad." He voice was soft again. Ten'un left the room, closing the door behind him. The nher voice cracked. She began crying. She calapsed onto her bed a stared up at the ceiling. "Why, Kami?" She sighed heavily and drifted off into a deep sleep.
ok, we go to Neji in the next chappy so stay tuned!
