Prompt 18
"I've been waiting all my life for you"
It was almost time for the ceremony to start. All their friends were downstairs, mingling and laughing as they waited for the bride and groom to walk down the isle together.
Neji turned to face his soon-to-be wife, their hands joined lovingly between them. It still seemed surreal to him, that he was about to marry the woman he had been love with since they were genin.
"You are beautiful, Tenten." His voice was low, almost reverent, as his eyes drank her in.
Tenten smiled brilliantly, a blush touching her cheeks at his compliment. "You don't look too bad yourself, Neji."
"I feel as though I have been waiting all my life for you. For this." Neji's eyes shone with unshed tears as he gazed at the love of his life. "Thank you for allowing me to love you, Tenten."
"Thank you for loving me." She replied, holding back her own tears. She promised herself she wouldn't cry today.
Neji brought their joined hands to his lips, placing a soft kiss to her palm. An attendant popped their head into the room, letting the couple know that it was time. He lowered their hands and sent her one of his beautiful, rare smiles that he reserved only for her. "Are you ready, Mrs. Hyuga?"
Tenten returned the smile with one of her own, nerves of excitement coursing through her. "I'm ready, Mr. Hyuga. Let's get married."
Have I mentioned that I love Nejiten fluff? Their wedding would have been a beautiful thing. I know it's only short, but I hope I was able to express their feelings.
As always, R&Rs are loved and appreciated.
