Hm, I'm just trying to speed it up a notch to get to my quota

Double update in one night. Geez, I must love you guys.

This one is for Kunoichi-Of-The-Leaf.

The word is: Diamond Ring.

Side pairings are SasuSaku. Implied that Naruto is with someone. Implied Ino is with someone.


"HYUUGA NEJI! YOU ARE GOING TO PAY!"

It was undeniable, Neji thought; it was definitely the shriek of his fiancé. And she was definitely angry.

He found Tenten in his face when opening his eyes from meditation.
"Tenten, what's wrong?" he asked.


Flashback:

Tenten sighed. There was a Sakura, Ino, Temari, and Hinata looming over her ring finger.
"No fair! The one Sasuke got for me was much smaller!" Sakura whined.
Temari rolled her eyes, "But Sakura, that was a PROMISE ring. This is an ENGAGEMENT ring".

Ino sighed, "How come Tenten of all people is the first to be engaged off?"
Hinata smiled, "I think it's wonderful you're marrying into my family, Tenten-chan."

Tenten backed up and sighed at the friends in her face.

'Neji, why couldn't you have gotten me a smaller, less noticeable ring?'


"And THEN, they fussed over it for another half hour…" Tenten added.

Neji smirked, "Well…"


Flashback:

"Big is always the way to go with rings," Sasuke said, "The promise one I got Sakura was pretty huge. She went ballistic over it."

Neji contemplated over it. Maybe.

"Well, the one I'm getting is smaller than that," Naruto said, "What with my insane ramen bill…"
"Say no more…" Shikamaru said, "But anyways, think big. Ino flipped when her promise one was small. I had to put up with her whining for two weeks on a mission. Troublesome."

Neji twitched. Well… Tenten and he lived together… if she whined about an engagement ring's size it would drive him crazy. Sure, Ino was more materialistic, but sometimes taking chances got you killed.


Tenten's eyebrow twitched, "So you did that only because you feared my wrath?!"

Neji shook his head, "I wanted it big enough so all of Konoha will know now. After keeping it quiet for long. And watching all those guys hit on you."
Tenten's eyes widened. Who knew Neji was POSSESSIVE? Well, he was a Cancer…

Tenten looked down at the diamond ring, "Well… I guess I don't really mind its size."

Neji smirked.


"… So she didn't really like the fact of its size," Neji finished.

"So I could get a small ring, Dattebayo!" Naruto said.

"And I don't have to spend the entire Uchiha fortune on a ring!" Sasuke smirked.

'Uh oh,' thought Shikamaru, 'they better not forget Tenten was the least materialistic of the Konoha 12.'


Okay… so Temari and Hinata aren't really materialistic either but… yeah, that line really fit.

I used some zodiac qualities after research.
