Neji laid on his futon and waited for sleep to come, but it never did. He tossed and turned, but his mind was to busy to rest.
I need to apologize to her, I wonder if she'll even talk to me. I wonder how mad she is that I blew her off. Gosh that was dumb. I wish I would of told Bushy Brow that I was about to go on a date and we needed to postpone the match. But no, I had to get it over with so it wouldn't hurt my reputation. Gosh I regret that.
Feeling better after he admitted that he finally fell into a restless sleep and when he awoke it felt as thought he never got any sleep at all.
"My gosh. How late was I up last night?" he questioned himself as he walked down the hall to get breakfast. He opened the pantry door and peered inside and settled on a cereal bar. He wasn't that hungry anyway. After breakfast he decided to go train for a while.
Maybe it will take my mind off TenTen. He thought as he walked out the front door. Once he reached his training area he pulled out some senbon and threw them towards the dummy that he always left tied to the tree. He missed completely.
Wow. That sucked. I need to go apologize to her right now. He thought as he ran towards town desperate to find her, he needed to apologize. Lost in a train of thought he ran right into TenTen, before she could walk away Neji managed to say:
"TenTen! Please listen! I'm so sorry I never meant to hurt you by postponing our date and I should of told Bushy Brow that I needed to reschedule, but I know that I was to worried about my reputation that I wasn't thinking right. And all I really need to tell you is that I'm so sorry and I was hoping that you would honor me by giving me another chance." he said then gasped for air. TenTen's face went from "Gosh I don't want to talk to you to." "Oh my gosh I forgive you and yes!!"
"Neji." she started softly, "Don't worry I forgive you. And this time, don't blow me off for Bushy Brow." she smiled and so did he. They embraced and Neji gave her a soft peck on the lips.
"So when's our next date?" he asked anxious to go be with her.
"How about in an hour that'll give me time to go get ready." she said.
"Okay. See ya in an hour TenTen!" Neji called after her as they walked in different directions. Neji was thinking what he could do for their date; he wanted everything to be perfect.
