With a sudden realization, I came to my senses

What was I doing, what had I done

Tenten and I were nothing more than comrades

Any romance between us was summed up to none


"I have to go", I pushed her away

She seemed stunned, like I ruined the night

I got up to leave as she looked on

"Neji", she uttered, "Is everything alright?"


"Just forget this happened", I told her outright

I wouldn't look in her direction on the grass

For awhile it seemed she gave me what I wanted

Since the last we talked, many weeks had passed
