Now, Ryu and Hikari are 6 years old! Right now I'm focusing on having their curse mark

Sorry for a short chapter...

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto!

"Wow, this is so cute Neji… that's very weird of you to make something… cute" I choked on my word as I blushed and grabbed the doll from Neji's hands. I placed on my cheek and rubbed it. Soft

"I know, it's just, want my kids to like me by being a better person not a cold bastard" He teased, I let him inside the house and onto the couch.

I called Hikari, she came out the room and came running towards Neji giving him a big hug to where her height is from his. Neji pulled back and went down to her height and rubbed her head, he looked at me and gave a smile.

"Here you go Hikari… Tousan made this for you" I handed her a doll that looks just like her. She gasped in excitement.

"Thank you Tousan!" She bowed down to her father and Neji smiled. Neji whispered something to her but I couldn't seem to hear it.

"YES!" She yelled out that made Neji smile in excitement and I have no idea why. He whispered something to her again and nodded her head; she raised her index finger to her lip and made a 'Shhh' sign.

"Geez, Hikari, hiding something from Kaasan?" I asked as I tried asking what Neji just whispered.

"Mhmm, sorry Kaasan, I can't tell you" She skipped to the bedroom and squealed in excitement making her brother come out of the room covering his ears.

"That hurts" He complained and glared at Neji and Neji gave him a worried and nervous smiles at the same time.

"Sorry about that, would you mind if I talk to you in a second by the kitchen, Ryu?" Neji asked Ryu, he just glared and thought of it for a moment.

"Come on Ryu, don't be shy" I teased him; I treated him like a little 3 year old.

"I'm not shy" He crossed his arms and pouted his lips facing a different direction.

I ran towards him and pushed him to the kitchen grabbing Neji's hand and leaving them there to talk. I slammed the door.

Now they are finally alone. I placed my ear to the door of the kitchen and tried listening. I can only hear murmurs and a few stutters from Neji. Soon, I heard a loud 'No!' coming from Ryu's voice.

Ryu opened the door and saw my figure; he ignored it and walked away. I stood up properly and looked at Neji feeling depressed.

"Neji… what happened?" I asked, he just shook his head not wanting to talk about it.

"Ten… we need to talk" He silently said biting his lip "Mind if we talk in the park?" He asked. I simply gave him a simple nod and we walked to the park.

Neither of us said anything during the walk, he was silent, silently thinking of something big.

Maybe he's going to dump me? Maybe my kids threatened to kill him to break up with me…

"Ten…" He started as we sat on the bench by a Sakura tree.

"What's wrong Neji?" I placed my head on his shoulder.

"It's about Ryu and Hikari… don't say anything, let me explain first before you freak out" He quickly said making me more nervous.

I nodded

"You see, when I was four, Hinata Sama turned three and I had a curse mark placed on my forehead, I know I told you the story but just… listen to it one more time" He paused "Now, the son another Hyuga from the main branch is having his birthday in 5 months, I know it's five months but I better start planning something" He stopped as I think it's my turn to say what I think he's going to say.

"And you're telling me, in five months, if we don't do anything… Ryu and Hikari will have a curse mar too. Am I right?" I asked knowing when a two year old is turning three of the Hyuga main branch, a seal is given to the branch family that has no seal just yet. "Is there any other way?" I asked.

"…" He said nothing

"Neji, answer me!" I grabbed his shirt; I stood up carrying along with his body. "Is there any other way?" I clenched my fist, and I gritted my teeth. My head is about to explode in a million pieces sooner or later.

"There might be one, or two, or three" He murmured, my grip loosened a little bit but not a lot.

"Tell me then" I said

"Either, I beat Hiashi Sama to a battle to gain power, but it has a side effect… once he still has power, he can destroy my brain cells" He said, I let go of him. As he fell in the bench again. I can't let that happen.

"The other?" I asked

"Marry Hinata… but she's not my type and… disgusting" He grunted as he thought about it. Even I can't get the picture in my head.

"Third?" I asked again

"Marry me…" He murmured

"Huh?" I just asked out of the blue

"I've been fighting with Hiashi Sama for dominance over the two houses. He told me… marry someone and I can prove to him that I can be a leader, not just in the house but with my family also" He said explaining to me "So, I bought a ring a few days ago when you agreed to be my girlfriend again… I was thinking, you want to marry me? But Ryu, he said no and Hikari said yes" He placed his hands on his head thinking what to do.

"I'll explain to the two what might happen, can you take me home?" I said giving no answer to the marrying part. I do want to marry him. But there's just something missing.

He stood up and walked me home. We stopped at the door, "I'll give you an answer as soon as I can, goodnight… I love you" I leaned forward and kissed him and he kissed back. I let go and went inside. I slid down the door as soon as I closed it; I hugged my knees, my hands under my fringes.

I dragged myself to the bed to sleep, but every time I close my eyes, I open it quickly. I can't stop thinking about what the future might hold for me.

I looked over to Hikari on the other bed by my side and Ryu on the floor (since they don't have enough beds)

I stood up and walked to Ryu, I took the hair away from his face, and I fixed his blanket properly on him. I wish he was still a small kid who would just agree on everything but food. I went to Hikari's bed and fixed her hair also, no need to fix her blanket, she doesn't move a lot in her sleep so I guess its okay.

"Ryu, Hikari… sorry" I sat on my bed silently crying.

I was thinking on how stupid I am when I was 19. Doing it with Neji at a young age unable to control ourselves. I feel like an idiot running away and not giving my kids their father when they need them.

I always depended on other people to raise my kids for me while I'm thinking and out on a few missions.

The next thing I knew I was sleeping comfortably in my bed with a few tears still coming out my eyes. I went to the bathroom, I wiped the tears away.

I went to the kitchen and saw Ryu and Hikari eating.

"Morning Kaasan" Hikari and Ryu said simultaneously, Hikari said it with a cheerful voice unlike Ryu who just said it like he's having a bad morning.

"Morning… mind if we all talk?" I asked them as I sat down on the empty chair by the table. My kaasan isn't here today; she's out for a walk.

"Mhm" Hikari said sipping her noodles

To everybody who is reading Meteor Garden... I'll work on it tomorrow as soon as I wake up (At 11am?)
