"Shit!" Neji cursed loudly, slamming the door. He then threw the keys on the counter.
"Oi, Neji, what happened, she won't come?" Naruto asked the brunet.
"Sadly…"he was cut off.
"She won't come?! It's our entire fault…" Naruto yelled.
"Dobe shut up, he hasn't finished talking" Sasuke scolded.
"As I was saying… sadly, she will come" Neji sighed, he was too frustrated about this…
"What do you mean 'Sadly she will come'?! It's great that she'll come, then we will have the best lead singer we can have!" he sounded excited.
"I DON'T TRUST HER WITH YOU!" he covered his mouth. Shoot… he let the anger control him…
"Hey, It's not like we are going to bite her head off or something… we are not like Kiba" Naruto slit his eyes, showing his anger. Neji began clenching and unclenching his fists in an attempt to calm his anger down, miserably it wasn't working.
"Shut up Uzumaki, I don't mean that, you two (A/N: meaning Sasuke and Naruto) have a tendency to fall in love, or flirt way too easily, I won't let you fall for her, you WON'T touch her in anyway, you WON'T speak to her about other things than work and finally you WON'T praise her in anyway, that would mean that she could fall for your kindness and I won't let her fall in love with NONE of you" he panted, after speaking so much who wouldn't… damn, I never thought Neji could be so overprotective. The guys sweat dropped and sighed.
"You do realize you are acting as if you were her father, do you?" Gaara stated.
"Yes I do and believe me, I'm way better than her father, big reason why she's now in Tokyo not in Osaka"
"Oi, boys!" Kakashi left his room and called the boys of the band. "Get ready for tomorrow, you'll be part of the jury, Anko, Kurenai, Sakura and Haruhi will be the supposed contestants. The jury consists in Tsunade, Jirayia, Orochimaru, you three and me" the boys went wide-eyed when they heard the name
"Orochimaru?!" the four yelled. Orochimaru was a famous and recognized choreographer but that didn't take away the fact that he was a pervert, a paedophile, ugly and waaaaaay creepy.
"Yes… he may be creepy but he still has a good eye for singers and dancers" Tsunade stepped in.
"But… but… he even tried to rape me!!!" Sasuke screamed.
"That was a misunderstanding; he just wanted to see how the outfit would fit you"
"Not even you believe that…"
"Nope, but I need to stand up for him or he won't accept to be part of the jury", all the people in the room sweat dropped.
meanwhile-
-Achoo!!-
"Bless you, Orochimaru-sama" Kabuto said, slightly annoyed that he had to say everything there.
"Thanks, someone is talking about me… well were is the dress for the girl?!" he yelled
"Here it is sir" Orochimaru took the dress from Kabuto's hand and looked at it.
"It's not short enough"
"But sir it is five inches above the knees!" Kabuto replied.
"I want it eight inches above the knees!" Orochimaru replied, using a weird, snake pout that would freak everyone out.
"Hai, hai" Kabuto grabbed the dress and walked towards the confection table.

"HINA!! wooooowwww!! that song was damn awesome!" Tenten squealed. She had bought a karaoke for their apartment and she made Hinata sing, according to her, to practice… after all it was like two days, until the audition.
"Sing another one, I want to listen to you" she blushed at this but smiled. Hinata smiled back and hesitantly grabbed the microphone.
"Which one do you want me to sing?"
"how 'bout… hmm Listen to your heart?"
"okay, give me a second" Hinata arranged the song on the karaoke machine and she took the microphone.
I know there's
something in the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look
in your eyes, yea.
You've built a love but that love falls
apart.
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.
Listen
to your heart
when he's calling for you.
Listen to your
heart
there's nothing else you can do.
I don't know where
you're going
and I don't know why,
but listen to your
heart
before you tell him goodbye.
Sometimes you wonder if
this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the
tide, yea.
They're swept away and nothing is what is seems,
the
feeling of belonging to your dreams.
And there are
voices
that want to be heard.
So much to mention
but you
can't find the words.
The scent of magic,
the beauty that's
been
when love was wilder than the wind.
She placed the microphone down and smiled at the cheering Tenten.
"That was Awesome!!!!!" Tenten yelled making Hinata blush a bright red.
"You are exaggerating Ten-chan" Hinata said, while hiding her flushing face behind her midnight blue bangs.
"I'm so not exaggerating! You are plain awesome, if they don't choose you they are both blind and deaf and I swear to kick their asses for you!" she yelled happily, Hinata sweat dropped.
"If they don't choose me you don't have to kick their asses… I'm not that good either way…"
"Baakkaaaa!! What are you saying you bakka? You are good, hell, you are more than good… I don't get your lack of confidence, you are extremely pretty… just remember all those days at the academy, boys fell at your feet" she finished smiling brightly, making poor Hinata blush even redder.
"And you are and excellent singer, extremely smart and you have a killer body… now tell me which one of those is a lie" she dared her friend.
"All of it… it's a lie… I'd do anything to have smaller boobs, in high school I wasn't a nerd many people beat me at things, and I'm not an excellent singer, I'm just going through this for you Ten-chan and those guys didn't fall at my feet… they just blushed and nose-bled and fainted probably because I'm horribly ugly" Hinata stared at the floor.
"You really are a moron… you know what… come on, I'm taking you somewhere" Tenten smiled evilly. 'If she doesn't believe her friends then let's let the strangers tell it to her' she chuckled inwardly at her evilness.
-
Tenten dragged Hinata along with her to an extremely crowded street and saw a beauty pageant being held. She smirked… this would be good.
"And the winner shall be…" a voice was heard, it was the interviewer speaking, apparently the contest was about to finish. Tenten ran and got on the stage, leaving Hinata beside the stage she grabbed the mic and smirked. Hinata was really blushing and she was extremely embarrassed, she held her gaze on the floor when Tenten began speaking. The people were dumbfounded and the interviewer seemed shocked, probably he'd be mad when he woke up from that daze.
"Tokyo people!! Yes I do know this isn't part of the pageant's program I just want to prove a point" she yelled. Someone in the audience spoke.
"Then prove the point quickly we want to know the winner!!!!!"
"Shut up, moron! As I was saying… I have this friend who is extremely cute but… she won't believe us," Hinata rose her gaze immediately and her eyes were wide "her friends, so I thought that maybe you people, since you aren't her friends would tell her the truth and nothing but the truth" Tenten smirked at the expression Hinata had plastered on her cute face.
"Then show her to us, we are sure to say the truth!!" another person spoke, one of the judges after speaking with the other two judges took one of their microphones and spoke.
"What's your Name sweetie?"
"Suzumiya Tenten"
"Well then Ten-chan, show us the girl, if she is as beautiful as you say and she beats our contestants and she still won't believe us, we'll hand her the prize and tiara along with Miss Tokyo's title.
"Thanks judge-sama, I'm sure she'll beat them within the blink of an eye" Tenten smiled at the girl being dragged behind stage and being dressed. She was really giggling.
-
"Come on honey, we need to dress you and pick up your hair a bit so you face will be-" the stylist stopped talking once Hinata rose her head and the stylist moved her bangs away.
"Honey… you are extremely beautiful…." she said shocked. Hinata blushed. "Come on honey, I swear I'll show all those people the real meaning of beauty… not those thin scarecrows called models!" the stylist got all pumped up and dragged Hinata to the dressing rooms. She held Hinata's hair up and into a semi-bun, considering a lot of her midnight blue hair was let down; still she rearranged her bangs and let them down so she would still be comfortable. She handed her a dress she didn't give any of the models since they were way to skinny or they just didn't deserve such a dress.
"Use that dress, it will make you stand out" she smiled. Hinata gasped,
"I-I can't… t-this is way too much… it-it's beautiful"
"Glad you like it honey, but hurry up, we are against time!" the stylist smiled broadly at Hinata who got in the dressing room and quickly changed.
She stood out of the dressing room making every single person behind stage gasp and smile. It was a low-cut, pearly white long dress. It had a diamond and pearls design along the waist and it had pleats in the section between the waist and the bust section. It had some other pleats going up the breasts, and along all the edges it had the same diamond and pearl design. When the low-cut was closer to the rising waist line, it had big crystals that joined them, being accompanied by the diamond and pearl design. The lower part of the dress was plain and simple yet the white satin added elegance and class. To finish the elegance they added open toe, stiletto heals. They had only one strap at the beginning and it was linked to the higher strap that went along the ankle, by another silvery strap. The shoes by itself were grey and had silver and white designs that made it look extremely fancy.
"Go on honey, make me proud" the stylist said, pushing Hinata up the stairs and on the stage. Hinata began walking but panicked. She was about to walk back when she saw Tenten's happy and proud face, she remembered the words of the stylist.
'I'll make them proud…' she kept saying as her mantra. She held her head up high and began walking.
"Well judge-sama, this is my best friend, Hyuuga Hinata" Tenten said smiling.
"hmmm" the judges stayed quiet, but Hinata blocked out every sound everything… there he was. She froze… and their eyes locked. She kept staring at him, but he just smirked and walked away. Hinata came out of her trance by Tenten, who was nudging her arm.
"Hinata… are you listening?" Tenten nudged her again, trying to make her listen to the judges and the people.
"I… I… uhh, no, sorry"
"Don't worry" Tenten smiled reassuringly.
"As we were saying… We are sorry to announce that the contestants… are not as beautiful as this girl is, as a matter of fact, she has won the title as Miss Tokyo and she gets the tiara and we'll get two other people from the audience to tell you what all of us have decided. Hinata didn't get why they were so pumped up about this…
The judges handed various people microphones and the various people said the same.
"Hinata-chan… YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!" Hinata blushed but Tenten as pumped up as she was smirked.
"Hinata-chan… would you go out with me?" another said.
"Hinata-chan, would you marry me?"
"Hinata-chan, do you want to bear my children?!" another yelled… making various people shiver… ESPECIALLY HINATA.
"How many of you guys would date her?" Tenten yelled at the cheering crowd. Hinata had been blushing and had been very embarrassed all the time. Every single man from the crowd put their hands up and even some girls also did. (A/N- o.O)
-
"Moo… Tenten why did you do that for?!..."
"do you believe me now?" Tenten said smiling sweetly.
"Yes… but did you really have to go that far?"
"Why are you complaining… most of Tokyo's male population and half of Tokyo's female population gave you there telephone numbers, and may I say a lot of them are cute" Tenten said, eyeing a guy that winked at them.
"You are crazy…."
"Did you know that pageant was being passed by national television?"
"WHAT?!"
"Yep…" Tenten said proudly making Hinata fume… she was about to yell at Tenten but her phone was ringing.
"Moshi, Moshi?"
"Hinata-sama?"
"Nii-san? what's wrong" she said trying to hide the anger from her voice.
"Why were you at a pageant?"
"Tenten made me…" she said, defeated.
"Why were you on TV?"
"They were filming Miss Tokyo's pageant"
"Hand the phone to Tenten" Neji said coldly, sending shiver's down Tenten's spine.
"Y-yeah?" Tenten answered the phone, fear evident in her voice. (A/N- I'm way too lazy to write the whole conversation or scolding Neji gave Tenten) The scolding lasted ten minutes and, boy, Hinata and Tenten never thought Neji had such a colourful vocabulary. Hinata sighed and grabbed the phone, trying to comfort the pale as a sheet, Tenten. She was still shocked all the things Neji said.
"Hina-chan… your cousin scares the living shit out of me" Tenten said, not really containing the foul words.
"I know… he scares me too" Hinata said recalling all the phone conversation. She began to giggle when she remembered that Neji would still be talking if Tenten didn't hang up. "Hey Tenten… shouldn't we be going home, I suppose these guys are tired" she said glancing at the guys that had offered to walk them home considering they gave Hinata a lot of gifts.
"Yeah… we should call a cab and send them home" Tenten said while glancing at the boys that were in dreamland, watching Hinata.
-
"She hung up…" Neji said frustrated.
"Who wouldn't teme… you were stuck to the phone for ten minutes insulting her choice…" Naruto said while reading a magazine.
"I would've only lasted five" Sasuke said.
"I would've lasted one" Gaara said channel zapping.
"Shut up… no one asked for your opinions…" Neji said annoyed.
"Why are you so against about men knowing she is cute?" Naruto asked all of a sudden.
"I just don't like men sending her lustful stares…"
"Suuure, I bet its cause you want her all for yourself" Naruto said, making Gaara and Sasuke laugh… Neji just stood there fuming but also blushing.
-
"Then… this week had been fun, you were told tomorrow you'll have an audition, you met Black Tsubasa, stayed at their apartment, were called by your dad, we left for the karaoke, I entered you in a pageant, you won and now we are here. It has been full of surprises" Tenten said, with a smile in her face, while she was drying her hair with a towel.
"You almost forgot about Neji's scolding" Hinata said, the two burst out laughing. Tenten was at the verge of tears from all the laughing. Hinata was sitting on the couch, channel zapping while Tenten was in the kitchen, waiting for the popcorn to be made.
"Oi!! HINA, which movie will we watch?"
"Umm, ano… I don't know… what about a scary movie?"
"No, you'll end up coming over to my room in the night saying something like 'Teeen-chan I'm scared!!' or something like that" she said while imitating Hinata's voice. Hinata pouted childishly.
"Moo, Tenten-chan… you're mean… I don't do that anymore. Well what about a romantic movie?"
"Bah, I hate those, they are so annoying"
"Tragic movie?"
"Also annoying"
"Suspense?"
"Boring"
"Action?"
"Now we are talking, which action movies are they showing?"
"Hmm 'triple X', 'S.W.A.T', 'fast and furious'" Hinata said while watching TV guide.
"Triple X would be the best one" Tenten said while opening the microwave and putting the popcorn in a bowl.
"Tenten, can you remind me why did we ask for the American TV package?"
"You said you were kind of bored of always Asians and you wanted to see the other part of the world or something like that- itaaaa" Tenten yelled.
"What happened?"
"I burnt myself…" she said while entering the living room with a finger in her mouth while her other hand held the popcorn bowl. "Well then will you put the channel they are passing Triple X on?" Tenten said kind of annoyed.
"Hai, Hai" Hinata said bored, she began channel zapping trying to find the channel when Tenten stopped her.
"Oi, mitte, mitte" she said nudging her midnight blue haired friend.
// today a brunette girl interrupted the Miss Tokyo pageant. She got on the stage and spoke to the crowd and judges saying something about a friend of her's that didn't consider herself pretty. The audience and judges proved the seventeen year old wrong by handing her the title of Miss Tokyo. Men and women all around Tokyo couldn't stop talking about the girl or 'Goddess' as many others are calling her. Apparently, thanks to some confidential sources the girl came from Osaka and is part of a very recognized and important family, the Hyuuga family. Owners of Hyuuga corp. and apparently she is the heiress to the company. Now on with another news we…//
"How did they found out my identity?" Hinata asked shocked.
"Dunno… man… news people really are nosy, well put the movie!!" she said annoyed. Hinata kept on zapping the channels.
-
"Hyuuga-sama, I saw your daughter today sir" a young handsome man entered Hyuuga Hiashi's office and smiled at the man.
"Oh, how is she?"
"She seemed fine, she won Miss Tokyo pageant" the man smiled warmly at the busy man before him.
"I'm glad; she had always been beautiful, just like her mother…" Hiashi's eyes seemed distant and his gaze rested on the window before him.
"Hiashi-sama, don't worry about her too much, she'll come home soon" the man comforted the big business man.
"I know but I can't help but feel restless, what if her condition worsens, what if she ends up like her mother?" he said a sole tear running down his cheek.
"Don't worry daddy, she's fine, nothing will happen to her, she's strong" a petit girl entered the large office. She was wearing a purple and green uniform with a green bandana around her neck. She had shoulder-length brown hair and her eyes were similar but different to her sister's. She had actual grey eyes, when Hinata had pale lavender eyes.
"Oh, Hanabi, how was school?" he asked at the expressionless girl before him.
"As usual, boring, daddy I'm way too smart for that college…"
"I'll speak with them, do you want to change college or maybe skip a few grades?"
"I'll skip a few grades; I'll soon catch up to Hinata-nee-san"
"Ahh the same amount of grades skipped?"
"no… age that she graduated" Hanabi said, finally smiling.
"But you are way behind Hanabi, you are missing like two or three years to begin and finish college" Hiashi said vacantly.
"Daddy, why do you always compare us?! I'm not her, I may be stronger in DNA but I don't have her wits!!" Hanabi said, storming out of the office. Hiashi sighed.
"Don't worry Hiashi-sama, its just adolescence." He said smiling at the older man.
-
"Hinata… when will you tell Neji?" Tenten asked suddenly, catching Hinata off guard.
"Umm… ano… when I feel ready, I don't want him to worry" she said smiling sweetly.
"You should… he should know" Tenten said while eyeing the smaller girl.
"I know he should… it's just not time" she said still watching the movie. The happy and comfy mood went down, leaving a blank and uncomfortable silence. Hinata sighed.
'It's just not time Neji-nii-san… it's just not the time for me to tell' she thought while looking outside the window.
