Latin. my fault; an acknowledgement of guilt.

Tenten turned around, the bow in her hands but she paused when she saw who was accompanying her potential client, a frown tugged at her lips.
"What are you doing here?" snapped Temari, a sneer affixed to her face while her wrist was caught in the hand of her friend. Tenten gave a significant look to the hand, and Temari quickly tore her wrist away from her friend, looking away. Tenten smiled at the small victory at embarrassing the girl who had defeated her.
"Temari!" Her friend shouted, her pervious smile faltering in the face of Temari's displeasure, "apologize to… um, sorry I didn't get your name."
"Tenten," Tenten answered quickly, surprised by the girl before her. Tenten had seen enough of the Suna team to know that they weren't exactly the repentant type, but Temari was very clearly apologetic now.
"I'm sorry," groused Temari, insincerely. The girl's lips puckered in displeasure but she nodded in acceptance of Temari's apology, apparently that would be the best that Tenten would get. Honestly it was more than she had ever expected from the surly Suna nin.
"So how do you two know each other?" the girl questioned with a smile.
