Tenten P.O.V
I ran straight to my room, dropping my bags on my bedroom floor. I walked over to my bed and flopped down. I wasn't like other girls, I wouldn't scream, cry I wouldn't go get a bucket of Ice-cream and try to eat my sorrows away & then wail when I realised that I gained 1 kilo. No. I anzlyed the situation. I got up and went to the mirror. Sakura had neat soft silky hair. I had hair in 2 buns with was messy and tangled. Sakura had clean clothes with not a speck on them. I had dirty clothes with creases and the stiching coming off. I sighed. Obviosly I couldn't compete. My talents were... well being a weapon mistress. The only weapons mistress, which I was proud of.
I sighed again, i'm not the type of girl Neji wants. I shed a tear just then. I stopped everthing. I was crying? Suddenly I giggled. Then I started to laugh. Neji Hyuuga was making me cry. It all seemed like a hideous joke. To me. I couldn't understand why I was laughing so much. I should be crying. I realised today was Saturday. Sunday I had the day off. That was good I could re-compose myself. If I couldn't have Neji the way I wanted, I would want him anyway I could get. Maybe tommorow I could hang out with Hinata, she would calm me down. But it was so hard being around friends when they all had perfect soul mates. Hinata had Naruto & they were getting married soon. Ino had Shikamaru. Sakura... Ugh... Sakura had Neji.... So as you could see I was alone.
I tried my best to date. Honestly I did. But I could never find the right guy. I wasn't picky but I couldn't stand it. I was such a critic. This one was to skinny, to fat, to muscaly, this one wasn't lean like Neji was. I kind of blame myself. If I had just told him I liked him when I started crushing on him, maybe things could be different. Maybe he and I could be together. No thats impossible I thought. I went over to the window and opened it. I closed my eyes and felt the cool wind ruffle my clothes and hair. I couldn't help myself. I started singing.
Hands Touch
Eyes Meet
Sudden Silence, Sudden Heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl...
Don't Dream to far, Dont lose sight of who you are
Dont rememeber that rush of joy
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl...
Every so often we long to steal to a land of what might have been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel when reality sets back in.
Blithe Smile
Lithe Grin
She whos winsome. She wins him
Long har with a gentle curl
Thats the girl he chose and heaven knows
I'm not that girl
Dont wish don't start wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and pearl
Theres a girl I know
He loves her, so
I'm not... That girl
My voice slowly trailed off. My eyes were watering as the truth set in. Ugh, I hated crying, it made me look weak. I needed to get out I thought. I closed my window and grabbed my jacket. I rushed out of the house and on the street.
I slowed down and started walking. I didn't know where I was going, all I knew was I needed to walk. I walked across the streets of Konoha. Shops were closing. And people were walking home. I kept walking until I came across a lake. I sat down and ran my hand across the top. There was little ripples in the water. It was such a cool night tonight. There was a full moon and the little stars were twinkling merrily in the sky.
Just then on the oppisite side of the lake A young couple was in view laughing joyfully, I hid behind a tree. As they sat down next to the lake. The moons light flashed on them. Of Course. Neji and Sakura. Sakura was sitting comfortably in Neji's lap while Neji was stroking her hair. They were having a conversation which I couldn't pick up. So I stayed there in silence. After awhile Sakura was nooding off. Neji kissed her forehead and lifted her up gently, being careful not to wake her. Sakura stirred a little but was fine afterwards. Neji walked away with Sakura. Carrying her Bridal Style. As they walked off I came out again. I looked straight up to the bright moon and sung:
I'm not that girl...
Neji P.O.V
I was heading out with Sakura, Sakura was nice and all. I have been dating her for awhile now but something felt wrong something felt off. There was a missing puzzle peice left to solve. Sakura decided she wanted to go to the lake. I happily complied and followed her. She took off her High Stilletos and ran away shouting "Catch me if you can!" I chased after her. We entered the lake area. Laughing. I saw something move behind a tree but I thought nothing of it. Probaly just a possum, startled by the loud noise. I walked next to the lake and Sakura came too. She rested her head on my lap, and I stroked her hair.
"Hey Neji?" Sakura said "Yes?" I replied. " That grubby girl at the training field, that was Tenten?" she asked. I felt my insides flare up. I didn't like it when people insulted Tenten. Through gritted teeth I said in my best normal tone "Yes. Why?" She turned her head to look at me. She wrinkled her nose. "She was hideos, a poor excuse of a girl if you ask me." I felt my face go red with anger. If she said anymore I would, I woul- "Anyway that doesn't matter." Sakura said interrupting my chain of thoughts. She yawned and started nodding off against my shirt. in no time she was asleep. I sighed and kissed her forehead. I would talk to her about it later. Now I had to take her home. I picked her up carefully making sure not to wake her. She stirred a little but remained asleep. As I was walking away. I heard a voice so soft if I hadn't been straining my ears I wouldn't have heard it. I listened eagarly. The voice sang
"I'm not that girl...."
I immediatly thought of Tenten. I didn't know why I just did. I walked off with the voice echoeing in my head. I dropped Sakura off at her house I laid her down on her bed and kissed her hair. I left and then procedded to leave back to my house. I had a shower then got changed. I laid down on my bed staring up at the ceiling. As I was nodding off. My last coherent thought was
"I'm Not That Girl..."
The song was I'm Not That Girl from Wicked (I do not own Wicked Either) This is my first fanfic so be nice Plz!.
