Flashback:

Tenten picked out a black beaded choker that tied at the front with a black ribbon, making a small bow. In the centre of the bow, a small, white rose made out of moonstone was sewed in.

'I like it, Ino. I have reasons for taking it.'

'Why? That one's meant for funerals?'

'It signifies white. A white rose to signify the death of my life.'

Ino stayed silent at this one. They bought the choker and they left. Ino went home and Tenten went home and dropped off her stuff. She then decided to take a walk outside.

She went up the Hokagemountain and walked till she came to a tree. It was on a cliff, and you could see the entire village of Konoha. It was night time, and you could see all the bright lights glowing.

She sat down quietly. She stared up at the moon, letting a couple of tears fall. They glistened like the stars in the sky.

Suddenly, she noticed someone beside her. He was meditating on the other side of the tree, which was why she hadn't noticed him in the first place. She should've noticed the chakra, but since it was so familiar, and she was near it every day, she had taken it for granted to the point where it was like regular air to her.

'Neji'

Neji exhaled, Tenten sighed. At least they were here together in a beautiful place, alone, where they could talk.

XxxXXXxxX

'Tenten.'

She scooted around the tree and sat in Neji's lap. He wrapped his arms around her and placed his chin on her shoulder. She rested her head back so her forehead was brushing against his cheek. He rubbed her arms and she let out a tired moan of pleasure.

'Neji, I asked Tsunade-sama for more missions to Ame. Can you believe Hazashi was there as well? Apparently he will miss Yukiko.'

'I was aware that he harboured feelings for her.'

'Really? How did you know?'

'Kimiko told me shortly before I came here. She happened to see them together.'

'This makes things more complicated.'

'Hn.'

They went into a comfortable silence. Neji just closed his eyes, inhaling the sweet jasmine scent of her shampoo. Tenten just closed her eyes letting some more tears fall. They landed on Neji's arm, immediately making him alert.

'Tenten, what's wrong?'

'Promise never to forget me?'

'How could I ever forget you, Tenten?'

'Just promise!'

'I will never forget you, Tenten. I will always love you.'

'Arigato, Neji.'

She turned around and hugged him properly. He returned the gesture and held her tight, her tears falling onto his shoulder.

'I'll miss you, Tenten.'

'Me too. Hopefully I'll…be..able t-to… see…you in A-Ame…' Her lower lip trembled.

'It's alright. We'll see each other again. Don't cry.' He rubbed soothing circles on her back. Slowly, she wiped away her tears and just leant on Neji, her arms circling his neck, giving Neji a back view of her slim waist and wide hips.

Slowly, she lifted her head and kissed him full of passion on the lips. He kissed back with even more strength and the kiss ended up being a tongue-war. His tongue tried to gain dominance over hers, tasting her sweet inside cheeks and she fought back, but in vain. He was stronger. They let go, in desperate need of oxygen, with a loud 'smack' ish sound, and dove back down for another kiss. Tenten's buns got tangled up so she let Neji let them loose, her originally straight, now wavy hair cascading down around four inches under her shoulders. Her fingers now had a strong grip hold on Neji's hair, a slender fingers occasionally brushing through it or grasping it tight.

Neji's hands found their way up her shirt and he felt over her smooth, unblemished skin, going from her back around and up her front over her flat waist and stomach, making her gasp at the cold, tingling sensation, making her skin go hot to the touch.

'..Ne…ji!' She breathed, all the while kissing him as he felt her torso all the way up to her neck. She placed her arms on his bare chest, slightly shifting the robes and rubbing circles making him groan slightly. He then decided to rid her of her shirt and she undid the sash holding his robe together. He stared at her cream skin astonished by the glow of beautiful skin.

He slid off her pants and she slid his off as well. Tenten then wrapped her legs around his waist and continued kissing him. He rubbed his arms up and down her back, dying to take off the bandages that wrapped her upper torso from under her arms to just below her bust, but he respected her more than that and he wanted to be respected by her as well. Tenten mentally thanked him for that. But he still rubbed her breasts in circles in different directions at the same time causing her to moan, her eyes flicking open and closed sultrily. He could swear that her eyelids were moving really slowly on purpose, her moist eyelashes waving at him, taunting him. Neji could feel himself harden at her touch, but had enough self control not to just give in to his raging hormones and fuck her senseless.

(A/N: I think I'll wait till I'm 13 to write lemons…just a couple more weeks :D …I'd feel ashamed if I wrote one when I'm still 12…and anyway this story is T rated…)

Slowly, their bout of passion slowed down until Tenten was panting slightly, arms gently embracing his neck, her fingers running through his long silky locks, his arms still rubbing her almost bare back and then up to massage her shoulders.

'Tenten, I love you and no one else will have a bigger place in my heart.'

'Neji?'

'No, let me finish. If it weren't for you who tried to help me before the Chuunin exams to get stronger, and also try to open my heart a little, even Naruto's words would not have affected me. If it wasn't for you who helped me after the Chuunin exams, and after I nearly died on the Sasuke retrieval mission, I would still be a cold shell of a human. If you hadn't scolded me about being reckless, the day I woke up, I would never have realized anyone actually cared for me. If you hadn't been so caring, I would never have realized my true feelings for you. Arigato Gozaimasu, Tenten. I will miss you and I will never forget you. I can never forget you after all you have done for me. So, Tenten, sparring partner, friend, best friend, lover, I love you, and it will never die.'

'…Neji…' Tenten was speechless. Once again, tears glistened in her eyes and fell slowly one by one, trickling down her flushed cheeks, occasionally reaching her lips and trickling around till they reached her chin where they dripped like liquid diamonds onto Neji's hair, dampening it or just dripping once again.

'I-I need to be going. My mom will be worried. Good luck at the wedding Neji, and if this is the last time I see you before then, I want you to have this.'

She took off a silver necklace around her neck with a silver katana hanging as the pendant. The miniature hilt was made of obsidian encrusted with diamonds in the pattern of a dragon. Each diamond was one dragon's scale. Neji's eyes widened as she pressed it into his palm.

'Take it. It was my real mother's, apparently. It was found around my neck when I was left with the Hokage.'

'But it's your only memory left of your mother. I can't possibly take it! I've never seen you without it!'

'Precisely the reason I am giving it to you. It was my mother's, therefore I cannot forget it, and since it will be with you, I will never forget you. However, I will know when it breaks for my chakra is connected to it. If you break it, I will know that you have moved on and forgotten me.'

'Tenten, I would never do that, ever!'

'That's true, for now. Just keep it, please? For me?'

'Ok.'

'Good luck for the wedding, Neji. In case I don't see you before then, congratulations.' Tenten forced a smile. Neji smiled sadly.

'Oyuminasai, Tenten.'

'Ja ne.'

Tenten dejectedly jumped down the Hokage faces and landed on the Hokage building roof, ninja style. She then made her way down the stairs and headed home. She fell asleep.

One day went by in a jiffy, her time spent buying Neji's wedding present. In the end, she decided she would give him the katana she made when she was 15, in his honour, but couldn't bring herself to give it to him for she was too embarrassed. The hilt was black with a metal framework of intricate designs. Encrusted in some places were lavender and purple gems, probably topaz, amethyst, tourmaline or purple sapphire. The lavender gems reminded her vaguely of his eyes. She spent the day sharpening and polishing the blade, a bit dull from being kept inside so much. Afterwards, she placed it in an old box attained from buying a katana, and wrapped it with black wrapping paper with a Yin Yang sign on the front. She fell asleep shortly after getting ready for bed, from fatigue.

XxxXXXxxX

The next day, Tenten woke up to the sound of her alarm clock. She would have been happy had she not known that today was Neji's wedding day. Slowly, she got out of bed, giving herself four hours to get ready before the wedding. She went into her bathroom and took a long hot shower, using scented soaps and extra conditioner and shampoo to give her hair more shine. She smelled of rose today. She then blow dried her hair and straightened it out using a straightening iron. When her hair was straight, it went down to 6 or 7 inches under her shoulders. It shone brightly because it was so sleek. She then took off her bathrobe and slowly slid into her dress. It was strapless and showed a little bit of her cleavage, and showed off her bare skin, glowing from the moisturizer she had applied the previous night. The dress reached mid thigh, and showed off her long creamy legs, and also hugged her torso, basically showing off her whole figure.

She then combed her hair out, picking up half of it. She twisted that half into a single bun at the back of her head, leaving a couple of bangs that reached her cheeks to frame her face. The remaining half of her hair was left down, and she placed some on each of her shoulders so it reached her chest. Not a single hair was out of place.

She then opened her drawer and took out a makeup set that she had never used before. Inside was a bronzer, a couple of different coloured blushes, around 10 tubes of lipstick and 10 tubes of lip gloss, two tubes of base gloss, 5 shades of eyeliner, 5 shades of mascara, 2 shades of foundation, and a whole eye shadow set. She ignored most of this and picked out a tube of pale pink lip gloss and pale blue lip gloss, dark grayish blue eyeliner, black mascara, grey and blue eye shadow.

She took out some moisturiser and applied it to her face. She then brushed the bronzer faintly along her jaw line and dabbed it on her cheeks. That was all she would need. She then applied the pale blue lip gloss onto her lips. On top of that, using an ear bud as an applicator, she smudged the pink lip gloss onto her lips, creating a shiny pink and blue pale lip gloss that stood out over her pink lips, depending on which angle you looked at it from. She then applied the eyeliner, drawing it on the upper eyelid quite starkly, and on the lower one quite faintly. She then applied a little dab of both the grey and blue eye shadow on each eye, and smudged it so the further she went up, the less eye shadow there was, so nearer her eyelashes it was darker. She then brushed mascara softly onto her upper eyelashes on each eye, and blinked a few times, rubbing off any excess bits, careful not to smudge them. It was waterproof anyway, so it didn't really make a difference. Her face was now done.

As finishing touches, she placed a silver ring, on a finger on her left hand that Neji had given to her as a birthday present. It had a lapis lazuli gem in it, and it matched with her eye shadow since it sparkled blue. She wore simple, black strappy 3 inch heels. They made her legs look longer and more slender. As a final touch, she wore the choker she had bought. She picked up her baby phat black handbag that had silver chains on it and looked at the time. She had fifteen minutes to get to the wedding.

She walked out the door after greeting her mom and walked elegantly to the Hyuuga manor where the wedding was taking place. Many of Konoha's teenagers would have wolf whistled at her, and some did, but they saw the dead expression on her face and noticed her mood. They just opted to stare at her beautiful figure. They couldn't recognize her. She looked like a dead angel.

She entered the manor after showing two ogling guards her invitation, and walked to the Hyuuga banquet hall. Inside, seats were set up and a few metres in front was the platform with the altar positioned in the centre. She headed quietly towards Ino and Sakura, since Hinata was busy helping Neji.

'Hey Ino, have you seen that girl in Konoha before?'

'Huh? You mean the one coming towards us? Umm…no…hey, wait a second, haven't I seen that dress before? OH MY GOSH! WAIT! THAT'S TENTEN! I BOUGHT THAT DRESS AND CHOKER WITH HER THE OTHER DAY!'

'Oh my freaking gawsh! Tenten looks HAWT!'

'I know! Hey Tenten! Over here!'

Tenten headed up to them and sat down in a seat next to them glumly. A few seats away were Sasuke, Shikamaru, Shino, Naruto, Kiba and Chouji. They were all dressed in tuxes, Sasuke with a blue bow tie, Shikamaru with a grey, Shino with a black, Naruto with an orange, Kiba with a red, and Chouji with a blue as well. Lee wasn't there because he was Neji's best man.

'Tenten, you look amazing!'

'Thanks…' She muttered halfheartedly. Many boys' heads had turned her way because of her fantastic glowing skin which stood out against the black clothes she was wearing. Her face was beautiful, except the only setback were her lifeless eyes. She closed her eyes for a few minutes, Ino and Sakura looking on with pity.

'Hey Tenten. It's started.' Ino whispered.

'Ok.'

No music played as Neji walked onto the platform with a stone cold expression. His gaze swept across the entire room and lingered longer on Tenten. His lips quirked up when he saw her and sadness flicked across his eyes. She looked up and met his gaze, holding it for so long that Neji didn't notice Yukiko even enter. Hiashi noticed this and sighed.

Neji was wearing a white men's kimono with a blueish grey obi, and Yukiko was wearing a white female's kimono with a pink obi. Both kimonos had intricate designs stitched onto the collar and sleeves in the same colour as the obis.

The Amekage and Hiashi stepped forward to the altar where Yukiko and Neji were standing. A few steps away from Neji stood Lee in a tux with a green bow tie, and a few steps away from Yukiko stood Kimiko in a white dress.

The Amekage started speaking.

'Good day, everyone. We have gathered here today to wed these two lucky teenagers in holy matrimony. Hyuuga Neji shall walk out today married to Ameno Yukiko, my eldest daughter. We believe that this shall strengthen ties between Konoha and Ame.'

Someone in the audience coughed. Hinata hurriedly came to sit down beside Tenten. The Amekage went on and on.

'If anybody believes that these two should not be married, say it now, or forever hold your peace.'

Suddenly, everyone around Tenten from Konoha 12 raised their hands. Lee up front raised his hand as well. The Amekage's eyes widened. Neji grinned. As if rehearsed, they all stood up and walked out of the banquet hall in disgust, one by one through the door. Now, Tenten was alone in her row. She shrunk down in her seat embarrassedly after Neji caught her gaze.

'If that's all, we shall continu-'

Suddenly, Kimiko walked out, leaving all the elders in the room bewildered.

'We shall now continue.' The Amekage, masking his anger, said. Hiashi smirked.

The Amekage went on and on.

'Ameno Yukiko, do you take Neji as your lawfully wedded husband?'

'I would love to say no, but, I do.' The Amekage glared at her.

'Neji Hyuuga, do you take Yukiko as your lawfully wedded wife?'

'I would love to say no, but I do.'

Both Neji and Yukiko grinned. The Amekage had made a mistake in the speech. Although it was tiny, it was a mistake nonetheless. He had said 'Neji Hyuuga' instead of 'Hyuuga Neji' and he had omitted the surnames of both Neji and Yukiko when asking if they would take that person as their lawfully wedded husband/wife.

'Place these Hyuuga rings on your fingers to complete the ceremony.'

Yukiko, Kimiko, Hazashi and Neji had made a deal. As soon as the Amekage would say those words, Kimiko would activate a jutsu so that it would look like Yukiko had indeed worn the ring. In actuality, she had worn a fake ring Hazashi had given her that looked like the correct wedding ring. Only Neji had worn the actual ring.

'You are now officially married.'

Yukiko and Kimiko's genjutsu skills were the only that surpassed the Amekage himself, so everyone was fooled by Kimiko's jutsu.

Yukiko and Neji walked out, hand in hand, Neji winking at Tenten. In Yukiko's hand was the actual ring, and she slipped it to Neji unseen.

Slowly, people started filing out of the banquet hall to an even bigger banquet hall where the buffet tables were set up, along with a lot of round tables where people were assigned to seats. Tenten was assigned to the same table as Kimiko, Yukiko, Neji, Lee and Hazashi. Unfortunately, the rest of Konoha 12 still weren't present. They were still outside, presumably upset with the marriage. Tenten had to compliment them on their dramatism. She smiled the first smile she had in the whole day.

Neji's POV:

I want to surprise TentenYesterday, the Hokage said that she would send her on a mission to Amegakure immediately along with Hazashi. Hmm, that would be the perfect opportunity...to reveal the false wedding to the Amekage…I'll tell Yukiko and Hazashi later, after Tenten's gone…it won't be a surprise otherwise…smirk sadistically…Holy shit! Tenten looks amazingly hot. She should dress like this more often…she's so curvy! GASP GET AWAY YOU BAD THOUGHTS!

Normal POV:

Tenten walked gracefully over to their table.

Neji suddenly smirked sadistically, and then flushed a little pink. He quickly regained his cold expression.

'Hey Neji, or should I say 'husband,' why are you smirking?' Yukiko sarcastically said the 'husband,' and chuckled after it. Neji and her were hiding something, Hazashi and Kimiko could tell.

'You'll see…you'll see…I have an idea…and everything should work out fine…' Neji replied.

XxxXXXxxX

TBC!!! The story should end in the next chapter. I would say this was a slight filler chapter except for the ending… what's Neji THINKING?! DUN DUN DUN! THE SUSPENSE!

Lol! REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! THEY MAKE ME HAPPY:D :D
