Another chapter! YAY! If this story is a bit difficult to read, please just bear with me until the end! I'll explain how this was written at the end. I don't think you'll find this too hard to understand, though :)

"Tell me a love story."

"A love story?"

"Yes. A good love story!"

"A good love story. All right. I'll tell you MY personal favorite story..."

Lee observed his surroundings when he entered the local bar, searching for his two teammates. He agreed to meet them here to celebrate their year anniversary of dating. They wanted to share it with Lee, because if it wasn't for him, they never would have told each other that they liked each other. It didn't take long for Neji and Tenten to notice Lee, and when they did, they waved him over to where they were sitting at the bar. Lee walked over to them obediently.

"Hey guys!" Lee said exuberantly. Neji gave a slight nod to Lee, as did Tenten. Lee noticed Tenten looked a bit distracted, and was about to ask her about it when Neji started talking to Lee about their latest mission. Lee kept the conversation with Neji going, but he wasn't very into it. He was watching Tenten, and wondering why she wasn't giving any input. After all, she was THERE for their last mission! She didn't only look distracted, she looked sort of...worried. Lee didn't understand why she would be worried, though. She should be happy. After all, they were here to celebrate HER relationship with Neji. Lee just shrugged it off and decided he'd ask her what was up when he could get a moment alone with her.

Most of the night was spent with Neji and Lee conversing over different things an Tenten just occasionally nodding or giving very little input, which seemed even starnger to Lee, since they were here to CELEBRATE, not talk about missions. What was even weirder was that Neji seemed to be ignoring Tenten completely.

After being there for only about an hour, Neji declared that he was going to go home, for he was tired and had an early mission tomorrow. Lee and Tenten both said good night, choosing to stay at the bar a bit longer. Tenten ordered another beer once Neji left, only her second one that night. Lee stayed away from the alcohol completely, knowing very well what would happen if he even had a drop of it.

"Are you okay?" Lee asked after a few moments of silence. Tenten shook her head silently.

"What's wrong?" Lee asked, obviously very concerned.

"Things with Neji...aren't turning out like I expected..." Teten started, "It started out okay, but after a while, he just topped showing affection for me and just doesn't really acknowledge me...You saw hinm tonight! He said maybe two things to me the whole time! An before you got here he didn't say a damn thing!" Tenten almost yelld, tears burning the corners of her eyes.

"Maybe something is just bothering him right now and that's why-"

"That's not it, Lee! This has been going on for two months now! I don't think he's been bothered by something for a full two months that would cause him to act this way! I think he's just bored with our relationship...and I can't really sa that I don't feel the same," Tenten murmured.

"I don't get it...if you both are unhappy, then why don't you break up?" Lee asked as if it were an obvious solution, which it was.

"It's kind of complicated...and I really don't think you want to sit here and listen to everything that's happened," Tenten said as she took a sip of her beer.

"Tenten, I want to help you because I want you to be happy. Please, tell me what's wrong so maybe I can help you," Lee pleaded. Tenten mulled this over for a few seconds, took a deep breath, and started talking like there was no tomorrow, "It all started about three months after we had been dating. We were at the Hyuuga compound, and we were just talking and enjoying ourselves until Neji's uncle came in."

And so the conversation went for well near an hour. Tenten just talking and talking, and Lee listening tentatively, giving a slight nod now and then to show he was still listening and that he understood everything she was saying. Tenten was still talking as the bar was closing, so the two left. Lee walked Tenten home so she could finish her story, and so that he knew she would make it home okay, since it was about one in the morning. He knew Tenten was 21 and could handle herself just fine, but she'd had about three drinks that night and, being a light drinker, that was enough to make Tenten stumble as she walked, so Lee wanted to be there to help her if she needed it. Also, he still woried about her well being, just as much as he did when they were kids, if not more. About five minutes from Tenten's house, Tenten was finished with what she was saying.

"I'm sorry I just talked on and on like that, Lee. It's just, once I get started on this subject, I can't stop. Just ask Sakura and Ino. I was telling them both about all of these problems with Neji the other day. It felt like I was talking for hours," Tenten said.

"Don't worry about it! I was the one who asked you to talk about it, right?" Lee said wth a huge grin on his face. Tenten smiled. She could never feel bad when she was around Lee.

"So...what do you think I should do about all of this?" Tenten asked tentatively as the walked up to the door of her house.

"I think you should tell Neji how you feel about all of this and just go from there. If you break up, you break up. It's better than going on like this," Lee said as they came to a stop a Tenten's doorstep.

"I guess your right...anything is better than going on like this..." Tenten mumbled as she got her spare key from it's hidng place outside of her house since she forgot her own.

"Right. I just hoe you do it soon. I hate seeing you upset like this," Lee said. Tenten nodded she opened the door to her house.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow, Tenten!" Lee said with a smile as he began walking away. Tenten turned and watched Lee leave. She couldn't explain it, but looking at him then, he looked...different, somehow. It was like she saw a part of him that she had never noted before. Tenten had originally blamed the beer for this new feeling, but now...she wasn't so sure. Had her relations with Neji blinded her as to what was really in front of her?

"LEE! WAIT!"

She was about to find out.

Lee turned around and walked back up to Tenten's house so he was right in front of her.

"What is it?" Lee asked curiously.

"Umm...I just wanted to say...thank you...for everything," Tenten said as she fidgeted nervously with the side of her shirt. It was now or never. This was her one chance to possibly find true happiness...or at least experience for a moment what true happiness feels like.

"Don't worry about it, Tenten! I was happy that I could hel-" Lee couldn't finish his sentence, for halfway through Tenten drew up enough courage to kiss him full on. Lee didn't respond for a few seconds, wondering if it was okay to be doing this. Her and Neji were most likely going to break up, but still, at this very moment she was still dating Neji, and he really didn't want to be part of the reason they broke up, even if they are destined to break up with each other, with or without his involvement.

While Lee was mulling this over in his head, Tenten wrapped her arms around Lee's neck and melted against him. Lee had to admit, as wrong as this was, Tenten's body against his own just felt so...right. Lee gave in to temptation and wrapped his own arms around Tenten, deepening the kiss. After a few seconds, the two broke apart. Unsure of what to do next, Tenten decided to give into her temptations and take another chance with Lee. She grabbed his hand and led him inside of the house, and, much to her delight, he followed her. Once inside, Tenten closed and locked the door and the two picked up where they left off, stumbling towards the bedroom as they kissed, each not wanted to let go of the other.

"What did they do when they were in her house, Daddy?"

"Umm...I'll...tell you when you're older."

"Why can't you tell me NOW?"

"Okay...I'll tell you what happened...They talked about the kiss they shared and...umm...they...they talked about their relationship and...umm...what they were going to do..."

"...Okay."

"Now, as I was saying..."

o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o

"After a passionate and loving night together, Tenten woke up in Lee's arms and, realizing it was 8 in the morning and she told Neji that she'd meet him at 8:30, she jumped out of bed, threw on some clothes, and made some breakfast for Lee to eat when he woke up. As she was fixing her weapon's pouch in te bedroom, Lee wke up and asked her why she was in such a rush.

"I told Neji I'd meet him at 8:30 for training," Tenten said quickly. It was at that moment that Lee realized what he had done. He had helped Tenten cheat on her boyfriend. He was helping destroy Neji and Tenten's relationship.

"Tenten, this can't happen again..." Lee said as he put his own clothes on.

"What do you mean?" Tenten asked, a little worried.

"I'm not going to help you cheat on Neji...you need to choose. Either me, or him. I don't want to be the other guy," Lee said.

"I know I have to choose," Tenten said after a few seconds, "It's just...no matter what I do, someone is going to get hurt."

"Tenten, I love you. I just want you to do whatever makes you happy. If that means being with Neji, then so be it. I'll support you 100 percent. If Neji loves you like I do, I'm sure he'll feel the same way," Lee said.

"Lee...thank you," Tenten whispered as she hugged Lee. She kissed Lee passionately one last time and ran out of the house to go meet Neji.

"So who did she choose?"

"Well...who do you think she chose?"

"Hmm..."

"Well?"

o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o

"Well?" Tenten asked when her husband entered the room.

"Well what?" Her husband asked.

"I heard you telling our story...who did our daughter say I chose?" Tenten asked.

"She said you chose the handsome, irresistible, dashing man," her husband began.

"So...she said I chose Neji?" Tenten said jokingly.

"Hey!" Lee said, pretending to be offended. Tenten laughed as she stood up and hugged her husband.

"So, did she like the story?" Tenten asked as she leaned her head against Lee's chest.

"She said it's her new favorite," Lee replied.

"It's my favorite, too," Tenten said as she pulled Lee's head down and kissed him passionately, the same way she had that night on her doorstep.

Okay, sorry if this was a little confusing for you to read. The italics are Lee and his daughter talking between intervals of the story. Everything else is the story that Lee told his daughter (except for that little part at the end obviously), except in the version that Lee told his daughter, he left out people's names and small things that five year olds should not hear about XD Hope you enjoyed this chapter!

HAPPY EASTER!!
