A/n: Thanks for all of the reviews! You guys met my demands faster than I thought you would. There are over 1000 hits on this story, I'm so excited. Now here is a new chapter of Engagement.

Tenten woke up the next morning and changed then she headed down stairs for breakfast. When she got to the kitchen she saw that Kish was already there and enjoying some of her mother's home made breakfast.

"Good morning," said Tenten as she sat down at the table to have some breakfast.

Tenten's parents had a look of surprise on their faces, as if Tenten shouldn't even be there.

'Why are they looking at me like that, maybe they thought I would sleep in or something,' thought Tenten as she buttered a piece of Toast.

"What's wrong with you guys," Tenten asked her parents, "Your acting really weird."

"Tenten, honey, shouldn't you be some where right now," asked Tenten's mother.

Tenten thought for a moment or two before saying "No, not that I can think of."

"Tenten where have you been going every morning for about five years now," asked Tenten's father.

Everyone stared at her while she was trying to figure out what they were hinting at.

Then all if the sudden Tenten eyes widen, she also dropped her piece of toast, as she realized what they where trying to tell her.

"Neji is so going to kill me," half shouted half whined Tenten.

With that she raced up the stairs to get her scrolls and everything else she used for training, leaving a confused Kish and worried parents.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner," said Tenten when she came back down the stairs.

"We thought that you had already left," said Tenten's mother sincerely while Tenten put on her shoes.

When she was done putting on her shoes Tenten headed to the door while saying "Mom dad you have been great parents and I love you."

"Tenten, Neji's not going to kill his own team mate just for being late," said Tenten's father dryly.

"Yeah well you've never trained with Neji when he's mad."

With that having been said Tenten rushed out the front door and to the Training grounds.

"Who's this Neji person," asked a confused Kish.

"He's one of Tenten's teammates, he is really serious about everything," explained Tenten's mother.

"If he's so serious all the time why does she train with him," inquired Kish.

"Because, he is the only one of her team mates that is remotely sane," said Tenten's father who was thinking of Gai and Lee.

"Why do you say that," asked Kish.

"Her sensei and her other team mate are dressed the same way, in green spandex with orange leg warmers and a bowler cut hair style, and are always rambling about 'The Power of Youth'," said Tenten's mother plainly.

"What's 'The Power of Youth'," said Kish.

"You'll have to meet them to know what we're talking about," said Tenten's father who resumed eating he's breakfast.

----------------------------------

Tenten ran onto the training grounds that she and Neji normally used. And Neji was there he was sitting in the shade of a tree meditating.

'Maybe if I'm lucky Neji won't be in a kill your Team mate mood,' thought Tenten even though that was not likely.

Neji's eyes opened abruptly. When he saw Tenten he stood up and walked toward her.

He stopped right in front of her and said "You're late and you didn't show up at all yesterday. Now why is that," asked Neji with a hint of anger in his voice.

"Uh… I …I…," shuttered Tenten while trying to think of what to say. "There was an emergency and my parents needed my help."

Neji walked away from Tenten and got in his gentle fist stance and said "Lets' spar now that you're here."

They fought until it was almost sundown before Neji got an idea of how to get Tenten to tell him the truth about the day before.

Neji charged at Tenten and knocked the kunai she was holding out of her hands. Then he grabbed her wrists and pulled her toward him. There faces inches apart.

"You know I was wondering why you didn't bring your fiancé to come and watch you train," asked Neji.

Tenten started shaking.

'How did he fine out about that,' thought Tenten.

"How…How…did… " Shuttered Tenten no longer looking at Neji.

"Lee told me yesterday when you didn't show up. Why… Why did you tell Lee but not me," Neji said the last sentence with hurt in his voice.

"I…I…thought that you would think that it was a stupid reason to get worked up about," said Tenten in a hushed voice while still looking down.

There was a long pause. Tenten looked up at Neji and she saw that there was hurt all over his face.

"Neji I'm sorry I should've--," started Tenten but she was cut off by Neji.

"Tenten it's okay… but will you tell why or how you were put in an arranged marriage," asked Neji.

Tenten told Neji how her parents had thought that it would be a good idea to put her in an arranged marriage. Then when she was finished with her story she started to cry.

"I'm sorry Neji I should have told you sooner. I'm so sorry… sorry," sobbed Tenten.

Neji pulled her into an embrace and put his chin on top of her head, because he is tall enough to do that, and said "its okay Tenten. It's okay."

Tenten just kept crying into Neji's chest. After a while Tenten started to calm down. When she was done crying all together Neji pulled her away from him and said "Tenten… you should probably go home now your fiancé most likely is missing you."

"Neji," but before Tenten could say anything else Neji was already walking away.

Tenten looked around and it was dark outside.

'He's right Kish…and Mom and Dad are probably wondering where I am,' thought Tenten.

Tenten started heading back to her house.

Then she looked back to see if she could still she Neji, but he was gone. Somewhat disappointed continued heading toward her house.

A/n: Man that was a long chapter. Yes, Neji finally knows the truth. In the next chapter of Engagement Neji and Kish meet. Reviews would be nice and they would make me update sooner, so review.
