"Sakura, get the door." Neji mumbled sleepily letting go of her, so she could get up.
"Why me?" She whined not getting off the couch.
"Because you're sleeping on me and I can't get up." He replied not opening his eyes.

"Fine, HOLD ON! DAMNIT I'M COMING SO CALM THE FUCK DOWN!" Sakura yelled getting up and walking slowly to the door. When she opened it, she found Hiashi waiting at the door.
"Hiashi-san, gomenasai. I didn't know it was you." Sakura bowed more awake now. Hiashi chuckled, "Don't worry Sakura. Today, I told you we are to meet at the Hyuuga compound but under some unfortunate circumstances, the compound will be unavailable for a while. So I have personally dropped by to discuss this matter with the two of you here."
"O-h rig-ht, why don't you come in? While I go get Neji." Sakura stammered opening the door bigger, inviting the Hyuuga clan lord to her home. Sakura then dashed to the living room, where Neji was still peacefully sleeping.
"Neji your uncle is here!" Sakura hissed in his ear. For a while there wasn't any movement. Sakura sighed and began counting.
"Three"
"Two"
"One"
When she hit one, Neji's eyes widened and he literally jumped out of the couch and to his feet in the matter of seconds.
"Nani?" he whispered looking at the pinkette.
"Yes, he wants to discuss our little predicament." Sakura replied frowning. Neji frowned but opened his mouth to speak, "Follow my lead. Don't say a word till you are spoken to."
"So Neji did you have a nice nap?" Hiashi commented looking at the slightly disheveled Neji and Sakura. The two teens blushed catching what the older Hyuuga was hinting.
"No uncle we did no such thing. We just had a nap on the couch after breakfast." Neji answered smoothly, his cold demeanor plastered on his face once again.
"I see, very well. I'll get to the point. I have sent Kakashi a letter in Suna after running into you two this morning…" Hiashi trailed off. Sakura, who sitting next to Neji stiffened up.
"And I received a letter from him just before I got here and he said that you two have his blessing. He knows that Neji will protect and respect you Sakura. He wishes you two to be happy and he will talk to you when he comes back." Hiashi continued his lavender eyes watching the two intently.
"But what about you Hiashi-sama? Do you approve?" Neji voiced out looking at the clan lord.
"Hai, I approve of Sakura-chan. She is the perfect for the Hyuuga clan. Strong, courageous, caring, kind and most importantly honest" Hiashi explained stretching the word honest for emphasis.
"He knows!" Sakura thought her eyes darting to Neji and Hiashi.
"Thank you uncle. Do you need help with the reconstruction of the compound?" Neji said changing the subject.
"No, everyone there has got that covered up. But I should get going I have to pick up Hinabi from the academy. I'll let myself out. Have a good afternoon." Hiashi said getting up from the couch and walking toward the door.
When the door shut indicating the two that he had left, Sakura quickly sprang out and started to pace.
"Shit"
"Shit"
"Shit" she kept muttering as she paced around the room. Neji could only watch her as he had his own debate in his head.
"Shit! This is only the second day we're together. What are we going to do?"
"You make it real duh! For a prodigy you're quite the idiot" Neji's inner commented rolling his eyes.
"I don't like her. Do I?"
"Of course you do! You love how your name sounds when she says it, you love how she fits in our arms, you love how her jade eyes seems to have a certain twinkle when she looks at you and you most certainly love that glow in her smile every time she smiles at you. If you're not convinced then explain to yourself why you hurt inside when you see her cry. I know she likes you too, so why don't you just suck up your big ego and make this damn arrangement real!" His inner proclaimed knocking some sense into Hyuuga.
"Hn," Neji replied aloud stopping Sakura in her tracks.
"Did you say something Neji?" She asked walking toward him.
"Suck it up and ask her out!" his inner cheered aloud.
"We could make this real. We don't have to pretend. What I'm trying to say is…" Neji started to ramble on nervously. But Sakura's lips interrupted him.
"It took two days just to make us fall for each other." She giggled embracing him.
"Actually, it took five years. (sorry guys! On chapter 11: Neji told Tenten he asked her out three years ago after the mission but it was actually five years ago because of the time skip sorry I just caught that mistake now. it is five years not three) Ever since the mission at the Land of Waves, I couldn't stop thinking about you." Neji confessed burying his face on her shoulder.
"Really?" Sakura asked in disbelief.
"Yes," he murmured.
"Okay, then since we're being honest here. I couldn't stop thinking about you during my training with Tsunade-sama it wasn't because I liked you or anything it was because Naruto could shut up about beating you and Sasuke-kun." Sakura giggled. She felt Neji frown on her shoulder.
"Sasuke-kun?" He mumbled.
"Don't be jealous…Sasuke is just a teammate, friend, brother. So is Naruto." Sakura laughed lifting his face from her shoulder.
"Alright,"
"Neji?"
"Hm?" He hummed wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Never mind." She squeaked blushing from the contact.
"You're wondering how someone like me, like someone like you. Well it's because I have never met any girl, not even Tenten, who can pin me down, catch me off guard and fool my Byakugan all in one mission. (He is talking about the Tazuna mission) Not only that you can stand up for yourself. You care about everyone before yourself and lastly you are very beautiful despite whatever Yamanaka said." He murmured next to her ear. Sakura blushed even more under the Hyuuga's confession. Neji chuckled at her before lowering his head to kiss her luscious lips.
Fifty kilometers away, Hiashi Hyuuga deactivated his Byakugan while he smiled to himself.
"A little lie was the only thing that those two needed. Neji better be prepared for three angry ninjas on their way to Konoha." He chuckled disappearing in a cloud of smoke.
In Suna Kakashi, Sasuke, and Naruto stared at the scroll that Hiashi sent.
"That bastard will die before he can have Sakura. We're leaving now." They all muttered disappearing to talk to the Kazekage. Hinata sweatdropped at the three overprotective ninjas.
"Neji-niisan, good luck. I'm happy for you and Saku-chan." Hinata said to herself rereading the scroll her dad had sent them. Before packing for their sudden return trip from Konoha.
Whoo this is the second update this week! There were soo many reviews! I was gaping at them soo here is the long wait NEJI AND SAKURA ARE FINALLY TOGETHER!
And if you guys are confused about the whole lying that Hiashi said. He basically lied to them that Kakashi already knew and he sent his blessing when he actually didn't…Neji will not know what hit him when they come back from their mission.
Thanks for my awesome reviewers!
