Normal POV-
Darkness surrounded her on all sides, suffocating her, binding her with unseen ropes… her lungs are screaming for oxygen, for release, for anything but the oppressing darkness. Scenes of her parent's deaths flash before her… and she just stood there, out in the rain like a sodden, miserable child. She could have done something, but she chose not to… why? A curious inner voice questioned her. Why did you not go with them? Maybe you were the cause of their deaths. How could I be the cause of their deaths? Tenten wondered. They went on the mission to protect not just Konoha, but you. Maybe if you had asked them not to go, they would not have died. They might have gone anyway. Tenten thought. Might have said the little voice in her head. Now that they are dead, who will care about you? A girl who doesn't even have a parent to keep her out of the rain? Suddenly, the images of her parents' deaths were gone, and replaced by a pearly glow that gave Tenten the feeling that she was being watched, but in a protective manner. The color of the glow, and the intensity it gave off reminded her of someone… who was it? She kept wondering. Suddenly, a voice called her name, in no more than a whisper. The mere whisper was enough to make her heart almost stop. Shivers came and went down her spine, as she tried to remember who it was. The voice called her name again, as though trying to help her remember. She called out, hoping she would receive a response, yet, time passed, and no response came. Who could it be? The person who… who… the little voice's words kept coming back to her; a girl who doesn't even have parents to keep her out of the rain… keep her out of the rain… out of the rain…Suddenly, as though struck by lightning, Tenten knew who it was. It was so obvious now; "N…Neji?" she called out. An image of her white eyed team mate appeared before her, though fading away as quickly as he had come. "Tenten," he spoke her voice so softly, as though drawing her to him. "Neji, please, don't leave me!" Tenten spoke in half a whisper as she tried to follow him. "Neji!" Tenten sat bolt upright as she awoke from her fever. It was still night out, and the moon was sending moonlight into her darkened room. Next to her sat Neji, his face marred by the slightest touch of worry as he slept. Heart rate returning to normal, her breath slowed, as she contemplated her team mate. It was him. He made my nighmares go away, thought Tenten. How did he do it, though? Without really thinking, Tenten reached out an arm, and cupped Neji's face in her hand, brushing away a few stray hairs that covered his face. Neji stirred, and Tenten pulled her hand away. After a few moments, he opened his eyes to see two brown orbs stairing into his pearl ones. "Tenten! You're awake!" he half whispered in a hoarse voice. Tenten did not say anything, but merely wrapped her arms around him, burying her face in his chest. "Please, Neji, don't leave me. I've already lost my parents, and I can't loose you too. You're the only person who can make my nightmares go away. I need you because I love you." The words, though spoken in barely more than a whisper in the breeze, had been heard by the Hyuuga. He enclosed his arms around her, holding her tight. "I promise, Tenten, I will never leave you, because I love you too."
