Waiting.

Konnichiwa Minna-san desu!

Yay! I've been updating rather frequently haven't I? XD Hahas! Anyway! I wrote this in school! I almost forgot this story ever existed… I didn't bother to check my stories… Err… Ok! Let's get on with it, yes?

x-x-x-x-x

I checked myself in a full length mirror at a corner of my room. I wore a dark brown, short-sleeved shirt with golden borders and 'Tenten' imprinted at its bottom in gold as well, together with a dark-blue pair of denim jeans which had a silver belt hanging across it, and a pair of black converse sneakers. I had my hair tied up in its usual twin-buns style with dark brown ribbons to match my shirt. I smiled at my reflections and muttered "perfect! It's so me…" I looked at myself from the back, before turning my gaze to the clock hanging on the wall. '11.39 am' it read.

I made my way to the living room to watch television and kill time, since I had plenty more before the outing. Today, I was going to show Neji my second favourite place to be in, besides my garage. A little piece of heaven, I'd like to call it. The café's name was 'MAGE'. It was so fun and enjoyable each time I went there. I had some friends working there, the food was delicious, especially the choco cake, and they had a mini manga shop in there as well, so customers could rent book and entertain themselves by reading.

"11.50" I thought out loud as I looked at the clock again. I walked towards my room and grabbed a pink and black bag hanging behind it. "My wallet… My manga… phone… what the hell?!" I held a makeup kit and read the words which said 'Picture Perfect property of Yamanaka Ino.'. "Argh…" I grumbled as I set it down onto my table. "She must have stuffed it in there…" I looked about my table and mumbled to myself. "At! Found it!" I grabbed a blue and black item and held it close to my face. "My MP4… How could I ever live without you…You're my fav! After mechanics that is!" I smiled and put it in my bag. "Ok… it's…" I wore my pink and white watch. "11…53…" I said, just before my cell phone rang. I dug in my bag and grabbed it. "Moshi moshi? Tenten here!" I answered it.

"ooh! You got a date with Neji?" Two voices sang as they teased me. I recognized them immediately.

"Sakura… Ino…" I sighed as I got a 'Ding ding! You win!' from the other line.

"Where are the two of you going?" Sakura asked.

"MAGE." I answered and heard Ino's voice scream.

"God Tennie! You are so unromantic! You should go to movies! Then… the two of you will…" She sighed.

"It's just an outing!" I retorted.

"Uh huh. You need to brush up on your lying skills Tennie." Sakura gave a hmph.

"Erm… its 12… He's gonna come soon. Talk to you later, ok?" I looked at my watch.

"Sure!" They said in unison. "You can call us if he screws up ok? Boys tend to mess up…" They added on.

"Alright! See you!" I ended the call before walking to my dining room, where I took a seat at my dining table, and waited for him.

1 pm…

I stared at my watch before grabbing some of my favourite chocolate ice-cream and continued to wait. 'He's probably got some last minute stuff…' I told myself.

2 pm…

I plopped myself on my couch and watched yesterday's re-runs of Yakitate Japan, waiting…

4 pm…

I found myself at the computer and at my Imeem homepage, chatting with a girl called 'Rena Sakura'. I continued to wait though…

5 pm…

I went to the garage to relax. The scent there always made me feel better no matter what the situation was.

7 pm…

I woke up at my desk, my cell phone in my hands. I stared at it, before flipping it open and dialed a number.

"Moshi moshi?" went the other side.

"Hey Sakura. It's me Tenten. Could you… maybe come over? I have nothing to do…" I said.

"Why? What happened to your date?" I heard my best friend ask.

"he didn't turn up…" I answered rather bluntly.

"What?! Ok! I'll bring Hinata and Ino, and we'll be right there!" She sounded like she was in a frantic.

"Alright…" This time, she ended the call first. I put my cell phone down on the desk at my garage, and walked towards the door.

(Author narrates)

Tenten left the garage and closed its door behind her. But a few minutes later, her cell phone vibrated as her ring tone, Mei-Q, played. The outer screen on it phone's cover read 'Incoming call; Hyuuga Neji'
