She looks so happy with him. A bright smile upon her face, her eyes lit with joy and her cheeks red from laughing so much. She's happy now, and there wasn't a doubt about that. When she was with me, she was so sad and wasn't her usual cheerful self. She spent more days depressed for no reason then she did smiling at the new day.

"Lee, you're so funny!" She chirped as her new lover would make another joke.

My eyes glistened with envy as she continued to laugh at his joke. It was my fault we were no longer together, but I wanted her again, to hold and whisper words of love in her ear as we curled in a light blanket together after a long hard day of work. How I missed those days when she was my own.

She stopped laughing and took a sip of her water goblet.

She was over our breakup in such a short period of time, it made me slightly doubt the relationship I had with her. Was she even truly devoted to it or did she even really love me? Or maybe she was over it so fast because she thought I didn't love her. I shook my head and took a sip from my own goblet. Looking back at those days, I never really showed much emotion and never told Tenten that she was special to me at all. Lee, on the other hand, probably told her all the time and most likely goes on and on about how much of a treasure she is to him.

As I watch them continue talking, my heart continued to sink. I was sure that Tenten didn't even know I was the father of her unborn two-week-old child. She would find out later and assume that Lee was the father since he was her most recent sexual partner. A child. That was going to be one more thing that Tenten and I wouldn't be sharing together. After so many tears, fights, secrets, and love making it was all for a few months of happiness and a heart-wrenching breakup.

"It's late..." I heard Lee wrapping up his conversation with Sakura Haruno and Sasuke Uchiha, "Tenten and I should be going now."

I quickly gulped down the rest of my water in the goblet and followed several some-odd feet behind them. His arm wrapped around her waist, holding her close and her head softly upon his shoulder as they walked out of the building.

I followed Lee and Tenten to her house. What I saw next, was something I almost use to seeing, but killed me every time. Without any hesitation, Lee planted his lips upon hers and kissed her deeply, holding her waist close to his hips. I averted my eyes away as the kiss became deeper. It was too-much.

Once I knew they were finished and Lee left the house and was a fair distance away, I came out my own hiding. "Goodbye my lover..." I whispered, heading to my own home not to far away from hers.

Author's notes - (Shudder) I really hate the LeeTen pairing...but honestly, what else was there to be a triangle of? Her and Kankuro? (Yes, that is actually a pairing.) And before anyone asks; yes. This was inspired from the James Blunt song "Goodbye My Lover" (which I don't own.) And wow, this story has 200 revies! You people are so kind, lol. I was thinking about putting this theme off until much later, but Crazed15yearold wanted me to put this one up.

Thank you for reading.
