I'm back! At least, for now. This is my gift to you. Sorry updates have been slow but I will speed things up. Why? Finals are over! Um, I kind of got my computer taken away. Now I can only use it for school-related things (my mother thinks I am typing a paper… SHHH!) And well... let me say, I got a B on a test. So that's why. If I do well on my finals then I get my computer back for non-school related things. Hmm… why didn't I use the computer to do my contest winner's prizes? One reason, I need time to redo and edit those. It doesn't take me long to "write a paper" so… my time is actually limited and this will probably not turn out well:(. The upside: I can check my email too! So I can reply to reviews and stuff! YAY! AU I guess. Nejiten, JirTsu. Kinda short.
Hyuuga Neji stood there watching his girlfriend dance with her friends.
It was the wedding of Jiraiya-sensei, their college professor, and Tsunade, the Hokage of Konoha.
He smiled fondly at Tenten from across the room.
She gave him a slight grin as her eyes drifted towards the bride and groom.
Neji sighed. He wanted to marry Tenten, yes.
But fate wasn't giving him any signs marriage was right for the two of them.
It didn't help that all her friends were engaged.
"Okay, everyone. It's time to throw the bouquet!" Shizune-sensei, the maid of honor, bellowed.
Tenten, thinking there was no hope Neji would ever ask to marry her, hurried swiftly to Neji's side as the two took seats at the end table.
Tsunade took the bouquet in her hands, and thrust it up into the air… and past all the people waiting to catch it.
The bouquet Tsunade had thrown landed right in Tenten's hair, which was up in two buns.
"Tenten-chan! Guess you'll be getting married soon?" Sakura, one of Tenten's friends, asked.
"Wha-what?" Tenten asked, oblivious to the bouquet in her hair.
Sakura took the bouquet out of Tenten's hair and shoved it into Tenten's hands.
"I- I caught the bouquet?!" Tenten asked, bewildered.
"Yep!" Sakura said, doing a thumbs-up.
"Oh…" Tenten stated, "I would have thought you would have caught it. I mean, you're already engaged!"
Sakura frowned slightly; "I don't think the wedding will be for another couple of years…"
"Thank you, fate!"
Every head in the room turned to the Hyuuga, who coughed.
"I mean… Tenten, can I talk to you outside?" Neji asked.
"Sure," Tenten said, following Neji out of the Hokage building the wedding was being held at.
Finally, Neji turned around.
"Marry me," he said, his pale violet eyes scanning hers for an answer.
Neji received a nod.
Then suddenly, Neji's girlfriend-turned-fiancé took a kunai out of her dress.
"So, you waited till you got a sign from fate to ask that question?" she asked.
"Wait- Tenten- I can explain!"
Poor Neji XD.
