Author's Note:

Thank you so much to all the reviewers who took the time to put down their thoughts and feelings. I received a lot of help from people and I am really grateful for it.

As for the pairings, it was hard to try and please everyone, but it was based on the majority. I had many interesting pairings and I will try to play around with the characters a bit so there might be something for everyone. The main pairing of this fanfic will be NejiTen and so those who aren't a fan of the pairing, I am sorry and this is a friendly heads up for you guys so you don't end up wasting your time reading my fanfic.

I am so sorry for taking forever to update. Sorry for the non-Japanese food and stuff. Also, I'll try my best to stay in character. It helps a lot that I'm not PMSing currently. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Previously:

"Please Tenten! I beg of you to help me win her heart!" cried Lee, who was down on his knees and was pulling on Tenten's hand.

"Argh! Fine! Just let go of my hand!" she shouted back to him.

"Thank you so much dearest Tenten! I owe you my youth!" said Lee as he released her hand and gave her a nice guy pose.

Chapter Two

Rivals

After Tenten had finished her breakfast, she and Lee went for a morning warm up routine at their old training grounds. Old memories were brought up as Tenten did her exercises. She remembered the old times when she would train almost night and day with Neji before the Chuunin exams to perfect his moves.

Those were times when she felt important, like she was needed. Now days, she felt like a burden upon Neji. She felt like a useless weakling who was dragging him from reaching his full potential. No matter how much time she spent training with him, she felt like she was falling behind.

Then again, how could she have fallen behind when she was never on par with him in the first place? He was a child genius. She was just nobody. He was part of a powerful clan. She didn't even have a last name.

"Tenten! Let's do a quick lap around Konoha before we leave!" shouted Lee.

Lee. He was not part of any powerful clan. He was a nobody. He couldn't even perform ninjutsu or genjutsu. However, he didn't let that stop him. He made himself become a genius. He was a self-made genius at hard work.

"Lee, you're amazing," said Tenten as the two were running.

"Oh, thank you Tenten," replied Lee.

"And that is why I'm going to work my hardest to help you get Sakura's heart! You're an amazing guy who deserves more than people acknowledge you for!"

"Thank you Tenten! You're the best! Your words are so pure and full of youth! You make me feel like I'm bursting with youth. Yosh! I'm going to find some way to repay you for everything you've done for me!"

The two finally arrived at Tenten's apartment. As Tenten opened the door, she found a note under the door. She picked it up as she slam the door close.

"What is it, Tenten?" asked Lee.

"It's a note from Neji," she answered and read the note out loud.

Dear Tenten,

I'm sorry, but I can't train with you today, or tomorrow. I don't know when I'll have the chance to train with you again. My uncle has requested that I train with him. As for the meantime, I'm sure Lee is free to help train with you.

Neji.

"I guess I'm not needed anymore," said Tenten.

"Don't say that Tenten! Just because Neji isn't training with you does not mean that you're not needed anymore!"

"I guess."

"I need you to help me with Sakura! I'm coming to you for your youthful expertise and pure blooming thoughts because I have faith in your youth to help me!"

"Oh yeah! That's right! I still have to help you win Sakura's heart. I told you I would help you and I definitely will because you're an amazing guy," said Tenten.

"Yosh! That's the Tenten I know!" shouted Lee.

"To the flower shop!" ordered Tenten.

At the flower shop, Shikamaru was studying each of the flowers and their arrangement. He looked at each of the petals. He touched each of the flowers. Still, no decision had been made, leaving a very annoyed Ino.

"Would you hurry up and buy something? You can't stay here all day! It's annoying!" complained Ino.

"But I have to get the perfect flower!" said Shikamaru.

"What for? The perfect lady?" asked Ino.

"Well, I wouldn't say she's exactly perfect, but my mom does deserve the perfect flower," he replied.

"Aww, how cute, little Shika is getting his mommy some flowers," teased Ino.

The little doorbells rang as the door opened. Tenten and Lee entered the flower shop with a determined look on their face.

"Good morning! How may I be of service?" said Ino as she greeted the two.

"We're looking for – "

"YOSH! I need the flower power of love and youth! Please help me pick the perfect flower for Sakura!" shouted Lee.

Ino gave out a sigh and said, "Sakura this, Sakura that! What is up with that girl? Well, anyways, if you want, we have the special Sakura arrangement. All her admirers are getting her that. The order form is over there and we'll have it delivered to her on Valentine's Day."

"YOSH! Perfect! I'll sign up for 5 of those!" said Lee as he rushed over to sign up for it.

"Lee, you might want to get her other things also. If you really want to stand out from the rest, you have to do something unique," said Tenten.

"You're right! I'll sign up for 10 instead! I bet nobody did that!" said Lee and gave Tenten a nice guy pose.

Suddenly, the door slammed open. A ramen smelling blonde stepped into the shop. He took a look around and spotted Tenten.

"Oy! Tenten! You're here! Perfect! We can start on my Valentine's project!" shouted Naruto as he gave Tenten a wave.

"Great, another lovebird that needs my help," thought Tenten.

"Oh yeah, Ino, sign me up for 10 of the special Sakura arrangement!" said Naruto.

"Do it yourself. The form's over there by Lee," pointed Ino.

Naruto rushed over and signed up for 10 special Sakura arrangements.

"So, you're my rival for Sakura's heart eh? Well, I'll just make mine 20!" shouted Lee.

"Fine, I'll make mine 30!" replied Naruto.

"I'll go 40!"

"50!"

"60!"

"70!"

"80!"

"90!"

"Enough! Both of you are giving her one each and no more special Sakura arrangement! I'm sure she doesn't want that many anyways!" shouted Tenten.

"Noo! Tenten! You're ruining my business! I could have made so much money from that!" shouted Ino.

"Sorry! I didn't mean to, but these guys are acting like idiots. Besides, are you sure you want to put together that many arrangements?" Tenten responded.

"True. You got a point there," said Ino.

"As for you two, we're going to stay away from buying gifts. Instead, you guys are going to make them!" ordered Tenten.

The three of them left the shop after Lee and Naruto paid for their orders. They decided to go back to Tenten's apartment. There, the boys thought of what they wanted to give Sakura.

"For my valentine's day project, I want to make cookies!" declared Naruto.

"Fine! I'm making chocolate!" claimed Lee.

"What! I want to make chocolate!" whined Naruto.

Tenten gave a sigh and said, "Naruto, you're making cookies! Lee, you're making chocolate!"

The two boys agree since they fear what Tenten is capable of.

"Now, Valentine's day is in 6 days and so is the ball. Are you guys prepared?" asked Tenten.

"Umm...Tenten, how do you make cookies?" asked Naruto.

"Fine, we'll practice making cookies. What do you need help with, Lee?" asked Tenten.

"Tenten! I don't know how to express my full love to Sakura! Every time I try, she skillful uses her youth to dodge them! I also need to ask her to the ball!" cried Lee.

"Well, you don't just randomly start blowing kisses at a girl. Poor thing, you must have scared the living heck out of her! Lee, we'll work on communication!" said Tenten.

"Wait! Hold up! There's a ball!" asked Naruto.

"Yup! And I'm putting all my youthful effort into asking Sakura to be my date!" declared Lee.

"Whaaa! I want Sakura to be my date!" said Naruto.

"Fine, you guys will both ask her at the same time and we'll let her decide who she wants as her date!" said Tenten. "Now, let's start making you two guys the hottest thing around! There's no girl who can resist a man who can bake."

"Yay! Thank you Tenten!" the two replied.

For the rest of the day, Naruto worked on baking cookies while Lee practice talking to "Sakura", which was really Tenten using Henge no Jutsu.

"Yay! Cookies are done!" declared Naruto as he brought out a plate for Lee and Tenten to try.

Tenten returned to her normal self.

"Let's hope this batch is better than the last one," said Tenten.

"Don't worry, it's not over baked this time!" said Naruto.

Tenten and Lee took a bite out of their cookies. Both were chewing it quietly to themselves.

"It's a lot softer this time," commented Lee.

"Naruto, I think these are under baked. There's still some yolk in mine," said Tenten as she spat out some of the cookies.

"WHAT! NOOOOO!" cried Naruto.

He walked slowly back to the kitchen as he felt disappointed in himself.

"Alright, back to you Lee. I think your problem is that you're too distracted by her image right now that you can't even get the words down," said Tenten.

"But I can't help but to stare at her youthful and pure beauty!" said Lee.

"Yeah, whatever. Let's just try this again, but without me using Henge no Jutsu. That way, you'll be more comfortable saying what you need to say!" explained Tenten.

"Yosh! Let's try this again Tenten!"

"Okay, start."

"Sakura, I have sometime to tell you."

"Yes Lee?"

"You are my fountain of youth! You are the ping in my smile! You are the shine in my hair!"

"Get to the point already Lee!"

"Right, I'm in love with you and I think that you're the most youthful and purest person in the world. Please, would you be my date for the Valentine's Ball?"

"Oh yes Lee! I would love to be your date for the Valentine's Ball," replied Tenten, jokingly as she giggled.

Unknown to them, there was a person standing outside the door and heard the last two lines. He was about to knock on the door, but had stopped in midway when he overheard Lee declaring his love. He brought his hands back to his side and closed his white eyes. Slowly, he took a step back and left the building.

Author's Note
