Okay, so I've decided that I would update this story, then The Legend Revived, then Oh So Melodic Hawaii. So, I hope you enjoy this chapter!
It Takes Two
"So you decided to kill the guy who did it, then his wife started screaming, and you killed her too, then finally, your girlfriend tried to stop you, and you killed her too!" Neji accused, pointing a finger at him, almost yelling.
"N-No! I hate the geezer, but I wouldn't kill him! I yelled at him, and then I left afterwards. I swear!"
"Then why is your DNA on the knives that were used to kill them?"
"W-what, that can't be possible! I didn't kill them!"
"Sure, you may lie, but evidence never does." Neji replied, crossing his arms in recognition.
The man just hung his head and proceeded to walk outside with his hands linked together by the handcuffs.
"Well, we did a pretty good job this time, didn't we?" Neji asked, looking toward his brown haired companion, who was deep in thought.
Her face broke into a small smile, and she nodded.
Naruto came in and yelled, "I'm treating us all out to the ramen bar!"
They arrived at Ichiraku's and sat down in a round table.
A waiter came and asked them if they wanted anything.
"Ice water"
"Coke"
"Beer"
"Beer"
"Ice water"
"7-up"
"Beer"
"Ice water"
"Tenten, why don't you have a beer instead, you solved this case too!" Naruto exclaimed.
"No, I get drunk very easily."
"All the more reason to drink it, change her ice water to a beer!"
Tenten's team exchanged looks and nodded.
A few hours later, all of them were walking out the bar with a really drunk Tenten.
"Hehe… you look funny Neji…" she said, looking into his eyes.
He blushed a little at this and was walking with his arm around her shoulder, supporting her.
"We're gonna go home Tenten, do you need a ride?"
"No it's okay." She said, regaining herself.
"What, do you have a boyfriend?" Ino teased, wagging a finger at her.
"Don't worry about boyfriends now, Ino." Tenten said, with her face contorting a bit.
They left and she walked around, going to a park and taking a walk.
She wobbled around a bit and just kept looking at her ring.
Flashback:
Daichi:
It's almost winter in America and I want you to have some warmth around there. I heard it's very cold.
Tenten
She put a scarf inside a box and took it to be sent at the post office.
The letter that came back changed her life.
Tenten:
I'm in America now and I have been thinking. I think that my feelings for you are changing and I have met another woman that is just a good as you are. I don't think we would be able to handle this much longer and I would like you to have everything you sent to me back. You can also keep the ring, I sent you back mine.
Daichi
Inside the box was everything she ever sent him, and in the middle was a shiny ring.
She sighed once again and was caught up in her own world.
"What are you doing here?" came a deep masculine voice.
She turned to see none other than Hyuuga Neji himself, standing there in front of her with his arms crossed.
"Nothing, just thinking about something."
They started walking right next to each other around the city.
"Well, there are some things in life that everyone needs to speak out sometimes." Neji explained, stretching his arms.
"Fine, fine, I'll tell you. It's my ex-boyfriend Daichi; he just left to America for a job. We were engaged. Then a month later, he broke up with me." Tenten said, looking up at the stars.
"Well, I think that you just can't give him up then, which is why you're still wearing that ring."
"No, that's not true!"
"Then why are you still wearing the ring?"
She blushed as she looked onto her finger and saw the ring, shining in the moon light, full of deceit and past memories she wouldn't want to remember.
"I guess its true, but I just can't bring myself to stop wearing it."
They were now completely under the light of the moon, strolling around the park.
"Well, some things in life don't serve there purpose after a while, and when that happens, they are most likely left around," he said, while picking up a soda can on the ground.
"Well, those are the things that someone need to pick up and throw away." He finished, as he threw it into the recycle bin there, and then started walking away.
"Wait! I have something to throw away." She said, before taking the ring right off her finger and throwing it into the trash can with great aim.
She caught up to him and asked, "How do you know so much?"
"I'm a psychologist, I know these things."
"Okay, I'm home!" she said, walking inside her comfortable home.
"Alright, I'll be leaving now, bye." He said, then walking out the door.
"Bye…" Tenten said softly, looking at the retreating back.
Hyuuga Neji …
Okay, this was a very short chapter, I'm sorry! I'll try to update mainly on Saturdays, because that's when I'm not busy. But now that schools starting, the updates will be slow, I'm sorry. Today is the last day before school starts, so I'll try to update each of my stories today. I hope you liked this chapter! Review, please!
