Hello everyone, I am quite a bit early to start the sixth chapter of Playboy, isn't that good? I am currently writing the first part of this story in my car. I am off to the new mall at Al Khor. I hope I can finish this chapter before homework will come again. Stay tuned!

Neji's POV

"Hello? Who is this? I answered in deep and groggy voice. Whoever this person may be will meet no sunshine in the morning. Suddenly, I was shocked and sat up straight on my bed. It is a female voice. I thought I never gave my number to a fan girl. There is definitely something wrong. The voice is somewhat familiar to me.

"Hello, Is this Neji-san's number?" she asked me. The voice is oddly familiar. She sounds like… "This is Uchiha Tenten." I knew it. It was she. What could she want at this late of the night?

"Yes this is me. May I ask what do you want?" I knew this would scare her. Why did I have to answer her like that? Then she had replied, "I'm sorry, did I wake you? I'm really sorry."

Tenten's POV

Did I make him mad? Maybe this is not the right time to call. In addition, I have not even thought of what to say to him. "I'm sorry Neji-san. I will just call you tomorrow. Sorry for disturbing your sleep." After I said those words, he shouted at me. "DON'T YOU EVEN DARE PUT THE PHONE DOWN!" Why is he shouting? I just did not want to disturb him. Then I apologized again. "Would you please stop apologizing?" I think he has calmed down by now.

Neji always has that habit of shouting at a person when he is panicking. Wait, He shouted at me. Is he in a hurry? Why is he panicking? Back then, I was always the target of that shout. I am always the one who is with him. Sometimes, I am the cause of that uneasiness in him. Of course, that would normally happen even if he were not in love with me, right. All those times we were together, I knew how to calm him down whenever this happens.

Normal POV

"I just wanted to talk to you Neji-san." Tenten said. I f one thing was very annoying Neji was that he always wanted a person to be straightforward to him. He wanted the exact point that the person wanted to talk about. In addition, it is what Tenten was having a hard time to do. "What exactly do you want to talk about?" At the phone, Neji was very calm but inside he was praying that she would not talk about their past relationship. "I want to talk about our relationship." There, Tenten had said what she wanted to talk about but how she could take more of Neji's words. "We don't have a relationship Tenten. A relationship only works if two people were in it." Neji replied. It was what Neji think of their past relationship. He thinks he was the only one working it out. He always tries to understand Tenten but he never could. The question was has he tried enough? How could he understand deep within her if he himself did not know how to understand his self. "What are you saying, Neji?" Tenten said. He was shocked at her sudden drop of formality. This was the second time he had heard her drop formality while talking to him.

"We had a relationship. Except that you never cared so much that you had overlooked all my determination to talk to you and let you understand my feelings. You never cared about me." Tenten explained to him. Being misunderstood by people is so tiring. She was tired of suppressing all her feelings. Now she had the courage to speak for herself. "I always tried to work things out but you never have given me that chance. I wanted to help you in something too. However, what can I do when you are that kind of person that can almost do anything? At first, I was very when you accepted my confession, but as time passes; you have shown your true colors. You would never care for someone like me." As she finished speaking, she had broken down into pieces again. She hated that every time she would stand, she would still land broken into pieces.

"What are you saying?" Neji said. "Who said I never cared about you? I wanted to do everything for you. Then, it gets tiring sometimes. No matter how much I try to know more about you just don't open yourself to me." Everything Neji had said shocked every nerve in her.

Tenten's POV

It can't be, he cannot be serious, right? This is too good to be true. I always thought he was just playing with me. Then I said something that I did not realize I could say. "Stop kidding me." I know I should not have said that but what I can do. I just cannot trust him saying the truth.

Normal POV

"That hurts. You seriously think I am kidding. I knew you better than that Uchiha Tenten." Neji was obviously hurt. It is as if Tenten had changed so fast in time of years. I hurt him so much that he now knew Tenten could not trust him. "It is okay if you don't believe me. But please I want you to stop crying already." He had every sob Tenten tried to hide over the phone.

"I was happy when you confessed to me. I never knew that the cousin of my best friend would fall for me. I thought it was impossible for you are younger than I am." Tenten did not know what he was saying. "What are you-?" Nevertheless, he did not pay attention to her he continued talking. "I wanted you unlike any other girls. I want to know everything about you. I am always jealous when other men look at you, thus making me over protective. I did not want you to go near them for they might steal you from me. I started to be different toward you when I got a warning from Sasuke that you are not allowed to date." Neji continued as if he did not care anything in the world as long as he can tell her all he wanted to say a long time ago. "I do not want you to be in trouble. Only if I had known I should have not start a relationship with you. In addition, it seems like I had hurt you even more."

As if the world turned around, Tenten understood everything now. Everything was clear to her. He does not want me to be in trouble. Sasuke warned him. Do I need to be protected like that at all times? Tenten's thought were immediately cut off as Neji muttered his last words.

"I love you."

She sat still phone in her ears. Every word was ringing in her ear. What just happened? He said the magical phrase. It was so soothing to hear it from his voice. I want to hear it over and over again.

"What did you say?"

"I love you, Uchiha Tenten."

Tenten's POV

How should I reply? Neji just said 'I love you' to me twice. Oh no, he might get the wrong idea again. I should answer as fast as I can. Wait, I am hyperventilating.

"I think your answer would be 'I love you too', wrong?"

"Ah… uhmm… yeah… uh" Great, just when I was about to tell him I love you too. Anyways, let us do this. Breathe in… Breathe out… 1…2…3…

"I love you too."

Normal POV

Unbeknownst to the two persons talking on the phone, Itachi Uchiha has been listening to their conversation all through the time.

"I love you, huh?"

A/N:

Okay so maybe this is my longest chapter I have ever uploaded. When the story said, Itachi has been listening to their conversation I only meant the 'I love you too' part of Tenten cause that is the only thing he heard. In addition, I want to thank the people who had followed my story and read them. I hope you like it!
