A/N: Hi! Just a quick announcement:
I have a poll up on my profile on whether or not I should write a sequel to The Unwritten Rules of Espionage. If you have a minute, please stop by and vote!
Enjoy!

"You're worried." It is not a question, and Tenten angles her head to look at her husband. Neji's lilac eyes peer at her with concern through the darkness.
There is moonlight in their bedroom tonight.
He reaches up slowly to brush his knuckles along her jaw, and then cups her cheek in his palm, smiling on the inside when she leans into his hand. "Just a little," she answers, dragging her thumb down from his temple, along the contours of his face, and finally pressing it against his lips.
The world is lost, forgotten.
Neji grips her wrist, dropping her hand on her chest while he throws an arm around her stomach and nuzzles his face into her neck. She squirms at the ticklish sensation, but she is careful to remain within his grasp, protected.
"Name the stars for me," Neji tells her through half lidded eyes. On the ceiling there are glow-in-the-dark celestial stickers, ones he had always teased her about in their genin days. But their familiarity comforted her, and so, somewhere between steamy kisses, and awkward steps towards the bed on their wedding night, she had squeaked in surprise at the sight of them.
It was Lee's idea to put them in their new apartment, but Neji wasn't about to tell her that (though something told him she already knew).
Tenten let out a breathy laugh, gently leaning her head against his. "Fine."
That one is Gai, and that's Lee…
He wasn't paying attention; he was more interested in feeling her muscles relax and slowly slacken with drowsiness, than see her point at stupid stickers.
He smirked when she paused to yawn, and he propped himself on his elbow to press a kiss to her forehead. She grinned at him, before pushing him back to her side. This time he watched her as she named the final two.
And there's you and me, right in the middle.
…
A/N: I'm sorry if that made absolutely no sense at all. Tenten has star stickers and she named each one after someone important in her life. Naming them calms her down.
And secondly, I'm sorry it's so short. Gah! My ending author note always ends up to be an apology of some sort!
Thank you for reading and please review!
