What's happening
A New Beginning
Adam stared at the phone dumbly, he had been benched for the moment, so when he heard Tenten's phone ring he had to answer it. He knew it was weird for him to even do that, and he was really starting to get Phone-phobia, all thanks to Kakashi, who not only was a coach but a history teacher as well. And since he sat next to the phone in the classroom it was one of his duties/grade to answer it when ever Kakashi was teaching.
Which was at least ten minutes between each phone call, making him have answered it about twenty times each period, since Kakashi lasted so much in the phone. "Man, what if this was something important and I screwed it up for Ten" He sighed.
Neji stared at the phone in his hand with glaring white eyes. What the hell! Who the hell was that and where the hell was Tenten?!! What if….what if that was her boyfriend? Either way, he didn't want to hear or know any of it, so he had hanged up without a second thought.
The thought of her with someone else killed him.
What was he going to do now?
Tenten kicked the ball and Blake jumped up as he hit it with his head and sent straight to the goal. "KONOHA HIGH WINS!!" Next thing they knew the crowd was cheering loudly and they were all tackling each other in congratulations for winning the game that was going to lead them to states.
Tenten laughed for the first time in a long time.
Nothing could ruin her day; this was the best moment of her life. After the game they all went out to ear and then she had to walk home, but that didn't matter. Even though it was already dark out. She knew Itachi was going to be mad.
When she entered the house though, it was not Itachi who confronted her but Sasuke. "Where did you go? Neji was looking for you"
"Huh"
"Don't act dumb Tenten"
"For your information little brother, what I had to do was something that meant a lot to me, and if Neji can't accept it then he's not the one for me"
"Did you answer his phone call?"
"He hasn't called me"
Sasuke sighed.
"Have you ever wondered why you don't have anyone?"
Tenten tilted her head "What do you mean?"
"Why don't you think about it, for now let's go to bed, I'm dead tired!" Sasuke yawned and walked over to the stairs. Tenten narrowed her eyes and felt confused, what could have Sasuke meant by that?
She had some thinking to do.
A month later
Two weeks had passed since everything had happened and Tenten felt like she understood what Sasuke had meant. On the other hand, Sasuke had been working really hard on getting kicked out of school that he was now going to go to a private boarding school like military and Itachi hoped to not see him in a long time or he would kill him.
Tenten had felt like killing him herself but knew that it was all because Sasuke really didn't want to be there anymore. He was always a restless child, liking to move. He never liked being indoors for to long, he always wanted to be outside.
Besides, Sasuke was being simply Sasuke.
Not to mention that Sakura seemed to have really taken a liking to him and given him her phone number, cell phone number, and email. She was like a girl possessed by her little brother. It kind of scared her.
As for Neji, he seemed to be avoiding her, so Sasuke and Itachi had thrown in another dare, and this time it was she who was to confess. Rejection or no rejection, she was an Uchiha and she was going to take it.
"I'm going to miss you" Tenten said as she came into her twin brother's room and sat down by the bed.
"Yeah, me too"
"Liar"
"Am not!" Sasuke sighed "Besides, I'm planning to get kicked out of there as well"
"You are an idiot, how are you ever going to make it to a good University?" she questioned as she zipped up one of his bags.
"Watch me; I'll climb to the top!" Sasuke and Tenten could hear footsteps coming up and they knew it was a pissed of Itachi.
"Come on runt!" He hissed. Sasuke grinned.
"Yeah, yeah" he turned to Tenten "Now you do know that I love you, and I'll miss you. Take care and take care of Itachi as well." Tenten smiled and got up and went to quickly hug Sasuke and kiss him on the cheek.
"Don't worry about us so much, you should really worry about yourself"
"Hey, I know what I'm doing" She didn't want to let him go, but she reluctantly did and then he grabbed his bags and begun to walk out.
"I'll see you around double T" and he left.
"See you" She cried.
When Tenten left for school she came in confident. She still had not seen Neji and no matter how much she looked for him, he was not there.
"Where's Neji?" she asked Hinata who was eating ramen with Naruto.
"Home sick today, he woke up feeling and looking really bad" Hinata frowned. "He's also been acting really depressed"
"Do you think it would be much trouble to go visit him?"
"None at all" Hinata smiled.
"Tenten! Come on we have practice" Tenten looked up to see Adam, Blake, and Andrew walking together along with Kimiko and Myra. She smile and waved at them.
"I'll be there after practice Hina-chan" Hinata nodded and then winked.
I won't even tell him you are coming just to see his shocked face when you find him in bed looking like a mess" Tenten and Hinata both laughed as Naruto slurped his noodles.
Tenten couldn't help but to feel like time was moving to fast for her.
"Alright team, good work today. Get some rest and we'll see your tomorrow!" Kakashi yelled out and they all cheered as they ran to the locker rooms. Tenten hurried by and her two friends stared at her. They were now dressing in the locker rooms for the boys but in the bathroom with the door closed. That way the boys could not look in or walk in for that matter.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Kimiko asked.
"I have a date!" was all Tenten said as she ran out of there before she could be questioned any furthered. She ran outside never stopping until she needed to catch her breath. She sped walked the rest of the way with a smile, she really wanted to see Neji at the moment. She wanted to tell him everything.
Once she reached the place, Hinata answered.
"Hey Tenten"
"Hey"
"Come on in, I'll take you to his room" And Tenten followed Hinata, Neji was sitting down looking space out with his nose slightly red and she walked in. When Neji finally noticed her, his eyes widen and he fell out of his bed.
"Are you alright?" she asked.
"Tenten! What are you doing here!?" Tenten brought out his cell phone and threw it to him. Neji looked at it confused and then to her.
"I came here to confess all my sins to you, Neji" she said and Neji's eyes widen as he heard her side of the story from the very beginning. "In all" she said as she was finishing up "I love you Neji"
Neji was speechless for a few seconds before he laughed.
"What's so funny!" she hissed. Tenten was flushed and she was about to leave when Neji grabbed her by the wrist.
"All this time we were going around in circles over each other, so hard trying to avoid even telling each other how we feel that we made such a mess…." He said "And I started it all, I'm sorry Tenten, so sorry and" He blushed "I love you too" he quickly mumbled the last part.
"What?" Tenten said mockingly "I didn't quite get that"
Neji glared at her, but then Tenten made this face that looked so damn innocent that it blew all the anger out of him and all he could do was bow his head and repeat himself over and over again.
"I love you Tenten"
This is where they begun.
The end
