Tenten ran past the mannor. She knew if that many ninja were looking in the village for how long, it's a good chance he's not in the village. She ran through the woods searching for him. Her heart was pouning probably from running probably from Neji. He could be hurt somewhere. She ran for god knows how long, until she collased. She breathed and sat against a rock. Her hair was practicly out. She leaned back and closed her eyes.

"I ca n spend the night here, I'll find him tomarrow." She told herself as she slipped uncouncious. When she awoke she had pain courcing threw her body. Her body was sore from yesterday. She started to look again, and found litle clues, such as a branch with a pecie of his toirn shirt, and his footprints in the mud. She knew she was getting close. Finally she saw a fire up ahead. She crouched in the bushes and saw him. A little ruffed up but he seemed fine. Tenten breathed, at least he was alive. She stepped out of the bushes and looked down angreily at him.

"I'm not going back." He said bluntly.

"Yes you are, everyone is looking for you."

"My birthday's today." He said, she wonderd why he said that.

"So?"

"I'm soppous to be married to Dawn one week after my birthday." He snapped a twig and threw it into the fire. Tenten bit her toung, no wonder he ran away. She sat down next to him.

"But if you run away that wont solve anything."

"Yes it will, I wont have to see her again."

"And what if they find you." Neji bit his toung. "Hiashi-sama will have the entire village after you then you'll have no where to hide."

"Tenten, I want you to go back to the village and forget you ever met me." He said.

"I cant do that Neji!"

"Why not?" Tenten bit her toung, she had nothing she could say.

"Because I think...I um...well..." She didn't know what to say.

"Just leave, Tenten, and dont try to find me again." She had it.

"I am not going to just go home and forget everything. I spent 2 days searching for you. I am brining you home weather you like it or not!"

"Well then I'd have top be married to Dawn."

"No you wont!"

"How do you say that?"

"I'll...I',ll keep you in my closet, they wont find you there." He shot her a 'your stupid' look. "I know, but I cant just forget you and what about the people who'll miss you?"

"No one will miss me." He said.

"Of course there are tons of people who would miss you."

"Name one."

"Me." She leaned in and kissed him. "I love you Neji and I dont want to loose you." His eyes went wide.

"Then come with me we can travel together." She thought about it for a second.

"I will."
