I think I forgot to mention that Tenten's Dad owes a weapon's shop. If I forgot, sorry xD
"You took quite a while," Tenten's dad said when the brunette, bun-haired teen entered. "Had a date tonight? Girls that are around your age is dating nowadays right?"
"No dad," Tenten said. "You know I'm not interested in those things. I have other things to worry about besides looking for a boyfriend. Besides, when are you going to look for one dad? It's been years since Mom died."
"Just like how you're not interested in getting a boyfriend, I'm not interested in getting another girlfriend or rather a new wife. Your mother was the only one I ever loved ever since we laid eyes on one another. There's no other woman in the world as wonderful as her. She was and will always be the woman for me. No one else but her."
Tenten smiled a bit. "Why must she die already?"
"Don't worry too much," her dad told her. "You're mom is in a happier place now. And she is watching us right now."
"Her death anniversary is this weekend." Tenten said. "Are we going to visit her grave?"
"Of course we will." her dad replied. "Now you better rest up now. It's still a school night."
"Right." Tenten said.
"You what?" two voices shouted extremely loudly the very next day of school. Their voices were so loud that the whole student body stopped what they were doing and turned their attention to Tenten and the gang.
After Tenten told the two what happened, the girl got quite annoyed as she put her index finger in her left ear, twisting it (I don't know what its called ^_^;)
"Do you really have to yell?" the brown haired girl asked them in an annoyed tone. Sure it's quite all right if either Sakura or Ino screams at her but the both of them yelling at the same time? Definitely not acceptable for Tenten. "Man I gotta remind myself to put on headphones the next time I tell you something like this!"
"Tenten that is so amazing!" Ino said with twinkle in her eyes. "I would so wanna be you right now! A night with Neji? How awesome would that be?"
"It's not," Tenten mumbled. She wonders how she got friends like these two. They have alot in common but they are still different in many ways.
"This must be destiny!" Sakura exclaimed. "Tenten you are a lucky girl to spend time with someone famous!"
"I wasn't lucky," Tenten stated. "Nor it was destiny. There is thing called 'coincidence'. It just so happens that he was in the same street I was when some perverted freak decided to rape me last night!"
"I think Neji just came in time for your rescue!" Ino assumed.
"You guys," their older friend, Temari said. "Tenten doesn't need Neji or any other guy to save her. I mean, did you guys forgot what she did yesterday when Neji underestimated Tenten? The girl didn't care about him being a celebrity at all! She just pounds him. It's lucky that he actually survived!"
"Well that jackass deserves it for calling me weak." Tenten told Temari. "This is girl power we're talking about!"
"Don't forget," Ino started to remind her. "He can still have you arrested for assault."
"Gee, thanks!" Tenten said sarcastically.
"A-and there's also his car," Hinata said. "Remember?"
"Don't remind me!" Tenten shrugged. "I would rather pay his car bills than go out with someone like him!"
"So you're saying that you didn't enjoy our little date last night?" she heard a pouting voice. The gang turned around and saw Neji and his friends standing in front of the girls.
"What the hell do you want Hyuuga?" Tenten demanded.
"Tenten give respect!" Ino nagged. "Neji is like a God!"
"A what?" Tenten asked. "Oh I have an idea, how about you date him?"
After hearing the suggestion, Shikamaru twitched a bit with jealousy. Neji noticed this and smirked. His three friends seems to be in La La land whenever they think of these girls. He just hopes he gets Tenten and he has this as the advantage.
"So you would rather be sued then?" Neji confirmed.
"I would much rather be sued anytime!" Tenten said proudly as she got up. "I'm going to the classroom right now."
"Tenten!" Sakura called out. But the brunette already went ahaead of them.
"You slept with Neji?" Tenten overheard someone exclaimed. She saw Lexi leaning against the the window, smirking proudly as if she won something.
'Ha!' Tenten thought. 'Looks like that Hyuga found himself a little playtoy!'
"Yup!" the slut said proudly. "It was worth loosing my virginity to someone like him. Besides, I already know we were meant to be. I am going to be the future Mrs. Neji Hyuga."
"Don't be so sure," Lexi's friend disagreed. "I mean Neji sleeps with EVERY girl after all."
"Oh shut up Mina," Lexi snapped. "You're just jealous because Neji picked me and not you!"
"Whatever Lex," Mina rolled her eyes. These two were best friends since childhood. But even so, Lexi and Mina were still different. How were they even friends in the first place? No one really knows at all. It's simply a mystery. "I just overheard someone saying that Neji is really interested in Tenten."
Tenten shrugged a bit. How can someone like him can be interested in someone like her? Either that or the Hyuga is just a plain, stubborn, spoiled brat that treats every girl like a toy. One night he plays with them, the next morning he treats them like garbage.
"What?" Lexi snapped. "How can he be interested in that bitchy tomboy? I am so much cooler, prettier, and sexier than her! Practically everyone in this school!"
Tenten stepped in, interrupting their conversation and told them,
"Don't worry Lexi," she said. "I will never have interest in Neji so if you want you and your little slutty body can have him."
"I don't think so," a voice interrupted. It was Neji and he was standing behind Tenten.
"Neji!" Lexi exclaimed happily and threw herself at him. Tenten looked rather disgusted and rolled her eyes. This kind of stuff is definitely against her morals.
"Get your demonic, filthy hands off of me," The pale-eyed gritted with disgust.
"But Neji!" Lexi begged. "What about the other night?"
"That meant NOTHING." he snapped, causing for her to let go. Tenten laughed only because Lexi was a fool for being a victim of the player Hyuuga. But at the same time, she felt kind of sorry for the girl.
"Neji, how could you?" Lexi started sobbing, hoping that Neji would buy it.
"Oh save your tears!" The Hyuga snapped at her causing the girls to flinch by his tone. "Do you actually believe that we're destined to be together? Your pathetic."
In a flash, Neji's head turned towards the side and on his cheek was red mark. Yup, the famous model Hyuga has officially been slapped. Guess who did it?
Tenten.
Both Lexi's and Mina's eyes widened when they saw the brunette slapped the daylights out of Neji.
"You're the one who is pathetic!" Tenten stood up for Lexi. "How dare you treat her like that! How dare you treat every girl like you disgusting filth! Sure Lexi can be a bitch but you or any other bastard out there shouldn't treat any girl like that! Don't you have a heart?"
Neji didn't said a word, instead a fast flashback came to his mind.
As Neji was getting ready, going back and forth, Himeko, the last girl he slept with glared at him and warned,
"You have no heart Neji. Someday, there will be one girl out there that will resent you. That day will come."
Neji simply shrugged it off and ignored her.
"Neji Hyuga I swear you are a pathetic, heartless person." Tenten spat out.
And for some reason after she said that, Neji was completely affected by it.
"Neji Hyuga I swear you are pathetic, heartless person." were the only words that is on Neji's mind during class.
'She's just a girl. A tough girl that is. But even so, why am I being affected by that? Sure Himeko said the same thing but I didn't feel a thing. With Tenten..it's just different..'
The teacher was trying to call out Neji's name but the Hyuga was simply out of it. When he noticed that he wasn't paying full attention, an angry vein appeared on his forehead and he suddenly slammed the book on the table.
"Neji!" their teacher yelled making him snap into reality. "I don't really care how famous you are and all but would you please pay attention?"
"Tch" Neji said and followed the teacher's instructions. At least it looked like he was.
"What the hell happened?" Naruto asked Tenten, thinking that she has something to do with this.
"How the hell should I know?" she replied.
"Whoa wait she did what?" a certain blond boy screeched.
"Dang Neji," the Uchiha laughed a bit. "She really is something!"
"Look whose talking," Neji smirked. "Tell me Uchiha, how did you get that red mark on your cheek? I'm guessing it has something to do with a certain pink-haired mistress?"
"I just got hit accidentally by a door." the Uchiha lied.
"And since when does a door have a hand print?"
Sasuke gave Neji a quick glare and mumbled,
"Shut up"
"Ohh I know what happened! Naruto said like a 3 year old. "I saw Sasuke trying to flirt with Sakura while I was with Hinata! The four of us we're doing okay until Sasuke decided to comment on her forehead and how wide it is. In a second, he got slammed like he wasn't slammed before! Man you should have seen it! Sakura was like really monstrous! Possibly more than Tenten!"
"Well at least I wasn't punched, thrown or kicked." Sasuke smirked.
It was the Hyuga's turn to say,
"Shut up"
"Anyways," Shikamaru interrupted them. "Why were you distracted in class today?"
"What makes you think I'm distracted?" Neji denied.
"Let's see," Shikamaru remarked. "You were spacing out, tapping your fingers on the desk which annoyed the hell out of me and you totally ruined my cloud watching moment and the last thing is that the teacher called you three times and you wouldn't answer."
"What the heck is wrong with you?" Naruto asked, his hands over his head.
"It must be that girl." Sasuke guessed. "Man that girl has really gotten into you hasn't she?"
"Don't ask."
"I'm guessing that's a yes then."
"I just don't know why out of all girls, her comment affected me."
"Maybe because no girl ever said that to you?" Naruto asked. Neji shook his head in reply.
"No. That other girl, Himeko said the same thing. Well, it's more like a warning actually. But it surely didn't effect me like Tenten's words."
"It's about time someone told Neji how much of a bastard he is," Naruto mumbled towards his friends and they all nodded in agreement.
"By the way Naruto," Neji began to say.
"What?"
"What the hell were you doing with my cousin?"
"Uhh.."
"You slapped Neji again?" Ino yelled before taking a bite of her sandwich. After telling her friends what happened before class started, again they were shocked.
"What did he do this time?" Temari asked.
"He didn't do anything to me," Tenten explained. "It's what he did to Lexi."
"You mean that slutty bitch?" Sakura said. "Why the heck would you wanna protect someone like her? I mean she is a total slut after all! She deserved that!"
"Slut or not, Neji shouldn't have said that to her. He treated her like a toy. I swear that boy is like a 5 year old. Heck even a five year old is more mature than him!"
"Well I say that it's Lexi's fault." Ino said. "She shouldn't have slept with him."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Guys can be easily temepted somehow." Sakura assumed.
"But there is this two letter word called 'No'," Tenten told her. "But I must agree. If Lexi didn't flirt with him, she wouldn't have to face this. Now, she is rather devastated."
"Hey Tenten," she heard a voice mumbled. The girls turned around to see a seemingly embarrased Lexi.
"I uh," she stuttered.
"What do you want Lexi?" Temari demanded.
"I just wanted to say," Lexi started before bowing down. "Thank you so much for standing up for me against Neji!"
"Um your welcome?" Tenten said. "But I wasn't doing that only for you Lexi. Besides, part of it was your fault anyways. I hope you actually woke up and went back to reality."
"But here's something you should know," Lexi began to tell her. "Neji seems to be really interested in you. I mean he couldn't stop asking questions about you! No offense but it was rather annoying."
"When will that boy ever accept that I will never consider!" Tenten slammed the table.
"Just giving you a fair warning," Lexi told her. "I hear rumors that Neji is more stubborn than you think."
"Gee, Thanks." Tenten gritted her teeth.
"Check out the school yard!" a voice exclaimed.
"I wonder what's going on?" Hinata wondered as the school population were talking about the school yard. There were too many people talking so they couldn't quite understand what they were saying.
"Hey guys!" a voice called out. It was Kankuro running towards their table.
"What do you want Kankuro?" Temari asked.
"You guys have to check the front of the school!" he announced.
"What happened? Is there a fight or something?" Sakura asked. "Cause if it is you practically just wasted your time."
"If it's a fight then this I gotta see! Move it damn you!" Tenten said and dashes out of the way to see the action.
"Hey wait up!" Ino called out and followed the bun-haired girl. The rest followed as well, wondering what the commotion is.
"Oh"
"My"
"Gosh!"
When the girls came into the scene the usual cemented ground of the school yard was now filled with flowers arranged in a shape of the heart. The Red Roses made up the border while the white ones filled it up. A huge crowd of other girls was made surrounding the romantic piece of work. Wondering who it's from and who was the lucky person for this. All the girls seeing this were either squealing with joy or was quite jealous.
"That's so cute!" Ino squealed. "I wonder if that's for me?"
"Dream on Ino," Sakura said. "Why would a guy give a pig like you this kind of a fabulous bouquet? Obviously that is for me!"
"And why the heck would a guy give flowers to someone which such a big forehead?" Ino said as she flicked Sakura's forehead. "Billboard Brow!"
"Ino!" Sakura screamed. "Prepare to meet my fist!"
"S-Sakura wait!" Hinata said. Trying to make peace between the two.
"I wonder who the real lucky girl is?" Temari asked.
"Beats me," a disappointed Tenten said. "And here to think it was an actual fight! Man I want action not this chick-flick crap! Just wasted my energy running here."
"Well that chick-flip crap thing you're saying is actually yours." Shikamaru told them. "Neji made us arrange that. It was such a drag."
"Wow Tenten!" Ino said. "Neji does like you after all!"
The girl sighed and said.
"Why won't he stop? Or rather he doesn't know what the meaning of the word No?"
"You might as well say yes." Sasuke told her. "Neji will do whatever it takes to get what he wants."
"Listen up!" a voice shouted.
"Oh my it's Neji!" one of the annoying fan girls screamed. "Neji! I love you!"
"No I love you!" another one screamed.
"Marry me!" another one squealed.
"I can't believe I was one of them." Lexi murmured.
"I want you to all know that I want this girl, Tenten to have a date with me!"
"What?"
"You're so lucky!" Sakura said.
"Desperate much?" Tenten said, annoyed. The crowd was waiting for the answer. Hoping it would be yes since it was considered lucky to be on a date with the famous Neji Hyuuga. Most of the girls were jealous at the moment.
Tenten moved closer towards the Hyuuga with a straight face and told him slowly,
"This is the last time I'm going to say this. I will NOT I repeat NOT go out with you. Not here, not there, not now, and not ever!"
Tenten stomped away. Poor Neji...
Sadly, he was not gonna give up. A Hyuuga will always get what he wants. No matter what.
The sound of a bell rang occurred when the door was pushed open.
"Oh Tenten!" her dad greeted. "Back from school already?"
"Yup." his daughter replied. "Need help with the shop?"
Their family shop which contains fake ninja weapons has been quite famous for quite a while. But there were a few weapons, mostly swords that are real but it is only for display and nothing else. Tenten someday will own this shop. She loved weapons. She would rather study the history of each weapon made since the days of the cavemen rather than go shopping for girly clothes.
"Actually yes," he replied. "Can't you believe the order I got? Some famous lad ordered a lot of weapons! kunais, shurikens, and swords!"
"Who would ordered so much?" Tenten wondered as she went behind the counter to start helping her dad with the sales. The sound of the bell rang again signaling that there is a customer wanting to buy something.
"Welcome!" the man greeted.
"Welco-" Tenten started to greet as well but when she saw who the person is, she freaked out.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" she yelled at Neji.
"Huh?" Neji said and smirked while Tenten's dad was simply staring with confusion.
"Uh, what's going on here?"
Tenten grabbed a real sword and raised it over her head.
"You fucking stalker!" she screeched and was ready to murder the Hyuuga.
"Tenten!"
