Chapter 4: The Unexpected Event
Neji asked Tenten if they can wander around while she is calming down. Tenten agreed and they walked and loitered around. They went through stores, booths and bazaars until they both finished wandering the whole place suddenly…
"Good evening Neji, Tenten, I wouldn't expect you two are together. Tenten and Neji blushed "Not really, Shino. Neji was to need a partner today." Tenten said with a shy voice. "Are you lying or not cause you should tell the truth or else I can render it to others." Shino exclaimed. Neji even blushed and said "You should know who you're talking too, Mr.Aburame!" Shino smiled "I know, the two "on" couple." Tenten got angry and shouted "SHINO! You shouldn't treat us that way, because you don't know what's going on" Shino again smiled "I know you would have kissed each other earlier, if I wasn't here to meet you two." Tenten got even angry "Why you, of all people who tried to mess my life. Wait a minute, your voice is familiar. I think I heard that voice from my phone earlier." "So you're the one who called me because of nothing." Shino guessed, Tenten began to answer "O yes, you. You are the most idiotic person that I had ever met." "Oh, you too." Shino replied. Tenten was about to explode until……
"Tenten let's go, don't mind him anymore. I don't want to fight with other people, yet it's troublesome." Neji held her hands and tried to get rid of Shino. Shino, in his mind said "Good luck, for you two." As Neji passed him. "Neji, don't pull me anymore I can do it myself you know?" Tenten spoke with a quiet voice. Neji didn't even listen to Tenten but instead pulling her far from the crowds. Tenten was blushing and also wondering why he is pulling her far ahead. Neji stopped walking and let go of Tenten's hand. Where do you think Neji brought Tenten to. It was in the nearby forest that Tenten dreamed of. It was silent and yet nobody was there, there was a river in the side with the shimmering reflection of the moon. She was surprised and was amazed about the view. "Do you like it?" Neji asked with a curious voice. "Yes, it's beautiful. Did you know that I hoped for this kind of view, yet it was true" Tenten smiled with stars in her eyes. Still Tenten remembered the Sakura thingy "But I wasn't hoping for that" Tenten whispered so Neji won't hear it. Neji did hear it "What are you talking about Tenten, Did I miss something that you should also want to be true?" Tenten began to be shocked and disagreed "NO! there's nothing for you to worry about. After all I'm just saying things that isn't related to you or my wishes. Eheh!" Neji was a bit worried "Oh! I thought it would be nice if I can help my comrades to grant their wishes." Tenten with a smile "Yeah that's true, also thank you for bringing me into this place, also forgiving me of my tardiness and helping me get rid of Shino today." With the two blushing, they can't even say anything to each other. The feeling that Tenten's heart was pounding fast felt the same in Neji's heart. Neji wanted to say something to Tenten so it's going to be over, so as Tenten wanted to say something to Neji. In beginning the both of them said "I" simultaneously, followed by blushes. They continued saying words at the same time, until Neji was to impatient and began with his words "Tenten I want you to know that, I'm going to tell you something important that you should know!" Tenten was shocked and already hoping for that answer, the only special hope that she wanted. The phrase that will make her feel better, Neji who also know this thing for girls to know but……
In Tenten's mind:
Neji: Tenten!
Tenten: Hai! Why Neji why are you hesitating?
Neji: I…… Tenten… I…
Tenten: I what?
Neji: I……got a kiss from Haruno Sakura!
Tenten: NOOOOOOOO! Not Again!
Tenten stopped dreaming and believed that Neji would be the one for her. Tenten is already sixteen and she knows what Neji's attitudes are for 9 years of being with him, since the academy, Genin times and now. She admires Neji allot from the start and maybe till the end, she helped him, support and protect him as a true friend yet teammate, and for a very special kind, a loved one. Back to Neji who wanted Tenten to know something that he was hiding among all his secrets, he burst out his true feelings for Tenten and it was "Tenten, I know that this is too hard for you to mend but I love you." Tenten was to be happy but instead she wasn't actually listening, she was daydreaming of what to say. "Tenten, Were you listening?" Neji asked, Tenten replied "Yes. You were saying that you liked Haruno Sakura then you hated me and you went with her and suddenly you got a kiss from her also." Neji wondered and was surprised of what she's saying "What are you saying, Tenten, you mean you dreamt of me with Haruno Sakura?" Tenten got back to reality and with confusion "Why, did I say something Neji?" Neji answered back with a lonely voice "Yeah, you said something about Haruno Sakura, yet you can't even pay attention to what I was saying, meaning to say you don't want me" Tenten had been shocked and immediately excused "No! It was just a dream actually, well because…… I thought you would like someone rather than me, Neji." Neji hearing this had began to rejoice and so he started it with a smile "Did you hear what I told you earlier?" Tenten was disappointed of not hearing it so "I'm very sorry Neji, as you were saying I wasn't paying attention to you but stead day dreaming." Neji even smiled "Actually you don't have to apologize, I just want you to know that what you told me about liking other girls isn't even true." Tenten's heart pounded faster because she got what Neji was trying to say "You mean? You…… no, that's not true, I can't be liked to a guy like you." Tenten almost tearing. Neji touched Tenten's face by his hand and said "No, you're wrong, you shouldn't judge your characteristics to me, because I already understand love." Tenten began to blush and can't even believe that it was true but, he understand it was true, suddenly………
"Yippee! I was hoping for that part" a man suddenly butted in and again pretended to be the two of them
Stranger: Neji, I love you too, you never knew what else I can afford but I can afford you, my love.
Stranger: Tenten, I can't turn back at you now, (sang a song) the moment I saw you, and before I was proposed to you, I save a little breath for you.
Suddenly another person butted in and continued the song "Don't hesitate now, cause he will promise you with a vow" two girls then butted in and continued the song "Save a little breath for you." Again one appeared and joined the song and them all together sang the chorus "Forever and ever, you'll stay in my heart, oh I love you, Forever and ever forever, forever must be, oh I will love you." One girls began the solo "You have this night to begin your kissing scene!"
Tenten and Neji was shocked of who appeared to their secret revealing time. "Lee, Shino, Sakura, Ino and Sasuke! I can't believe that you were spying us. You all are very disrespectful." Tenten shouted out. Neji began to be embarrassed and in his mind "Oh no, they saw me how I was acting earlier." "Neji, you were very sweet you know. I never knew you were that sweet." Lee exclaimed. Neji beginning to be a klutz by tripping himself "Tha…That is none of your business, Lee!" Lee smiled "Of course, I know. I, the Konoha's Beautiful Green Beast, Rock Lee is the #1 fan of NejixTenten, and I love you both, it makes me proud. Ha, ha, ha! It's truly the "Spring Time Of Youth" (Lee continued laughing) Everybody turned out to be thinking that he's "Jologs!"(it means it's a person who thinks farther than reality) by looking like swollen people. "Tch, why were you here anyway? Why, do you all have intentions in spying us?" Neji asked. At a glance a boy and a little dog jumped out with a video camera on his hand "We are curious people and we also can't try knowing what's going between you and Tenten. And also we brought with us Kurenai-sensei's video cam to…" Sakura covered his mouth "Eheh! Are you two disappointed?" Tenten and Neji shouted in reply "OF COURSE, WE ARE! DO YOU THINK WE WOULD BE HAPPY ON WHAT YOU DID?" Lee, Shino, Sakura, Sasuke, Ino, Kiba and Akamaru became deaf and dizzy because of the giant, big, loud, noisy, two voices. All of them fainted except Lee. Neji and Tenten grew terrified on who was left awake Tenten whispered "Neji, I think Lee will…" Neji swiftly answered in a soft voice "I know. Tenten I think we should, you know." Tenten before answering, swallowed her saliva and loudly said "Run!" The both of them ran as fast as they could. Lee in the other hand laughed and swiftly ran to chase them. Neji and Tenten thought that Lee would do something horrible and embarrassing, that made them get rid of him. On the way out of the festival Neji sensed two people were walking in front of them. One was a boy with a yellow, spiky hair, wearing orange clothes and one was a girl, her hair was dark indigo and eyes that were color white, wearing a yellow Kimono.
"Hinata, have you heard about Ero-sennin's Icha-Icha Paradise novel?" Hinata's mind was with question mark "Ero-sennin? Icha-Icha novel? Naruto-kun behind us!" Naruto wondered and looked at his back; he saw Neji and Tenten running as fast as they could while Lee was confidently searching for them. "Neji! Tenten! Where are you two? I've been searching for the both of you but you two haven't showed yourself to me……" Naruto again wondered and asked Neji and Tenten what's happening. Neji inhaled and exhaled again and again "Naruto—Lee—is—he……wants—to chase the both of—us—so" "Okay, I understand just rely on me and I will try helping you get rid of Getche-Bayo" Tenten also took a deep breath and pulled Neji into a bush until Lee went near them. Naruto used his transfigure technique and change himself into Gai. "Hmm…Hah! Gai-sensei! Good thing I saw you, I just want you to know that I can take hold of myself in love. Neji-kun, Tenten-san, the both of them showed their feelings for each other and, and…" Inside the bush Neji and Tenten who were blushing whispered "What now? He's spitting out everything." Neji exclaimed "Hu…Lee. He's really untrustworthy" Tenten added. In Naruto's mind "What is he talking about? Does that mean that Neji and nee-chan are…" In the side, Hinata who was blushing upon hearing what Lee said "Neji-nii-san, Tenten-nee-chan are already…" with that Hinata fainted with her face reacting like she's in heaven. Lee after blabbing pulled the pretend Gai away from their venue and talked with him about anything nonsense. Naruto never did find a way how to let go off Lee's hands and instead just stayed with him all nightpoor him.
Back to Neji and Tenten……
"Komenosay, Naruto but, we can't do anything to save you." Tenten pretend-smiled. "We'll just buy you dozens of Ramen for what you did." Neji said promisingly. After staring, they noticed Hinata who passed out, you know fainted. "Uhh! Hinata fainted, doshte?" Tenten wondered. Neji who continued blushing answered her question "Duh, cause of what Lee said about what happened to…" Neji stopped because of being ashamed to talk to each other, so on and so forth. Suddenly two boys was on their way home; saw the three in the lane. "-munch-munch- huh? Look who's there Shikamaru. Neji-san, Tenten-san and Hinata-san. Are they having a reunion? No, why is Hinata-san lying dead? Huh! Maybe they committed murder! Ahh! I don't want to die yet, never." The boy panicked, and because of that he tries to run away for his life. His friend with him pulled him so he can refrain from running away "Nhhh…Hoy, Choji stop over acting, this is not the time to think that way. Nhhh, mendokse yo."
Shikamaru while pulling Choji went to the three people.
"Yo! What are you doing just now" Shikamaru asked. Neji never wanted them to know what was going on so he replied "Long story! uhmmmm…….hey! why don't you pick Hinata-sama to the hospital and let her rest there. Cause you know, she……fainted…" Choji suddenly went near Hinata's face and checked. "There is nothing bad happening to Hinata but, I'm sure that he lacked food you know." Shikamaru, Neji and Tenten looked miserably to Choji. "Hey, you know what food isn't really what you should always matter, Choji. Well, if you always think that way, uhmm… because you know how…uhh…you like….uhmmm……right now? Ehe. If you understood what I said sorry!" Tenten said with a respectful voice. Choji understood what Tenten said to him and because of that Choji became sour and raised his iron fist to them and said "I am not fat! I am big-boned I say! Raise your voices men! Hooray for the big-boned!"
After hearing Choji's splendid speech, he looked at them and realized that they were not there anymore. "huh? Where are they? Shikamaru? Where are you?" suddenly he heard something moving and that time Choji began to be scared and so he ran.
In the place where Neji, Tenten and Shikamaru are:
"Phew! That was close." Tenten said while resting herself. "Yep! But still I should meet him. Cause I will be in big trouble if I left him so sudden and Choji maybe poor out there." Shikamaru said. "Okay, we're fine now as you can see, so you can leave now Shikamaru." Neji said not being tired and just playing with his kunai. "Okay, I will, nice meeting you anyway!" Shikamaru exclaimed. "Yep! Us too, bye!" Tenten said with a happy and appreciative voice. There Shikamaru left, leaving the two couples behind (woohoo! Alone again!)
