Chapter 7 – Envy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neji Hyuuga sat alone in his room, drinking tea for simple breakfast, finding out about Hinata's running away, upsets everyone in household, and he followed his uncle early in morning, only for reporting Hinata missing. They knew that they couldn't afford finding her first without mentioning to Hokage Tsunade, although he knew somehow that Tsunade gave him a short glare by telling him that eventually he'll be in charge for crimes he committed for few days ago. Neji just lower his eyes, with smirk on his face; “Fat chance! As long as I’ am protected by my own uncle, I won't be in charge at all.” However, he spoke nothing and his uncle did the job, by talking shortly about the heir's missing, they left after report, and Hiashi told him to now go and look for Hinata.
He did, he went first to Kurenai's apartment, by using his byakugan, he found out that Kurenai was home alone, so he went next to Aburame's household and only few members were at home, Shino and his father gone for some mission. At last, he went to Inuzuka's household and there on distant, he found Hinata, sleeping at Kiba's room with Akamaru and he saw Kiba sleeping on couch with all booze around. Neji decided to observe and wait. Sometimes he could stay, guarding in same place for more than 24hours, but eventually, he knew that he had to leave before any Inuzuka members shows up with their sensitive noses. Then he saw Kiba waking up, stood up and went to his room, checking after Hinata, when Akamaru suddenly went out of this room, only for waking Akamaru's other dogs up.
Just probably ten minutes later, he saw Kiba doing something unaccepted touch, giving Hinata a tight hug, seeing her crying on his well build chest, rocking the girl front and back, like mother's comforting frighten child and not believing in his eyes. He saw Hinata lean over Kiba, kissing like she never kissed a man before, with pure passion and Kiba took over his dominance by giving her more French kissing and later he pulled the girl down. Watching Kiba playing her body with his warm hands, was more than Neji could bare, his blood were rising in rage, perhaps by jealousy and rejected over that she hurted his pride, his mandom. Nevertheless, continue watching Kiba slowly taking off her clothes and Hinata's milky soft breasts, pooped out, Neji never knew that her nipples could be so hard and perfect! Suddenly they stopped kissing, looking at each other, Hinata seemed nervous, Kiba softly stroke her cheek, gave her more tender kiss and then both held each other, when suddenly he could see Kiba trusting her inside. And pang! His chest felt heavy, his palm sweating, he never sweats so much before, not even his second Chunnin exam or even Jounin, his eyes kept wide with blood limit, feeling his knees falling apart, he tried stand, but then his legs collapsed. Watching his rival touching his fianceeée in every piece of her petite body, Hinata just moan of pleasure, screaming his name repeatedly. Neji wanted to step closer, to stop them continue making love, but then he could suddenly hear some footsteps and then he just flung off from the ground and panicky hurried out from this household, hurted and furious. Far away from everything and he didn't remember how far he ran, but in the end he realize that he was outside of Konoha town and he hide himself somewhere in forest shaking, panting, sweating. He could barely catch the breath until he collapsed over the ground, feeling his clothes getting dirty, he just lean himself over the tree, trying to catch breath, but the images over naked Hinata moaning over Kiba's touch, kept coming back in his mind. Grabbing the stone, he furiously tossed it far away, screaming, and grunting”; fuck... FUCK YOU MAIN WHORE!!” panting after the screaming, he simply lay down again, whispering”: Why? Why him? Why dog breath of all people!? I cannot believe it, first the fucking blond-haired person and now him of all people!? My eternal enemy! Why Kiba? Damn you Hinata-sama...damn you filthy little bitch! I must get my revenge... I swear... I swear! You're not getting away with this! I will show Kiba who belongs to whom.” Thinking over about it, he knew this wasn't first time he was reject at all, but this time, it was far greater. Not only that Hinata rejected him, she made love with the clans’ eternal enemy, Inuzuka.
Inuzuka and Hyuuga had never been in good term; in fact, both Clans hated each other. Of what Neji’s been told from the clans old ancient stories of the past before Konohagakure exist as one of fifth great country; Hyuuga and Inuzuka had fought each other, several of times and lost many of their members. To survive both Hyuuga and Inuzuka made pacts with other clans, Hyuuga with Uchiha, Inuzuka with Aburame and that came natural, since Byakugan and Sharingan had common powers, while both Inuzuka and Aburame possessed nature creatures like bugs and dogs. But that day when Konohagakure were build and Clans were competing each other for the title of being most powerful, Inuzuka lost, because of impulsiveness and brashness, and Aburame also lost because they did not had strong power enough for beat up Hyuuga or Uchiha.
Hyuuga however become one of greatest and most powerful clan since the first man became Hokage and it was also thanks to Hyuuga's abilities that made Konohagakure so powerful and their distant relative clan Uchiha, who possessed Sharingan became the second powerful clan and known for Police force in this country.
The losers, well it was both Aburame and Inuzuka, well that's what the both Clans had realize whom clan the first Hokage's favorite and they became bitter and the clans were splitted out and many of distant members of both Aburame and Inuzuka, lived around the fifth countries.
And when the first got killed, neither Aburame and Inuzuka came for funeral, rather happy about it and hoped that the future would be brighter, but Hyuuga and Uchiha kept the growing stronger and bigger, they had own streets, own buildings, shopping’s, temples, and even their own army. Nevertheless, with second Hokage, he tried reform the law system, by all clans should being treated equally, but then the war came out and all of clans were out on battlefields, and members of all clans became less and less. When Third Hokage, things got terrible because of all war financial costs and too many ninjas death and he had to sacrifice a lot, only for keeping Konohagakure’s standard. Because of what happened in past, none of clan leaders ever spoke to each other at all, only in political or mission terms.
That was what Neji knew and heard and he did everything to avoid Aburame and Inuzuka, but when Hinata, the heir became part of team with Inuzuka and Aburame members, Hyuuga was not pleased of this news. However since Hinata became useless and week for this powerful clan, Hiashi Hyuuga didn't care about the elders feelings and simply told them that she might die in missions and all things would be clear and another rightful child will be next clan leader, like Hanabi.
To everyone's surprise Hinata didn't got weaker or died, no she grew stronger, become more confident and even won Hokage Tsunade's trust and loyalty by her hard work and not because of she's heir of noble clan and so much that suddenly Sakura was outcast from Tsunade’s favorite student list. Instead of fighting for Jounin title, against the clans will, she wanted to educate in medicine branch like her eternal rivals Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka. Hiashi Hyuuga hated Tsunade of good reasons, she was too radical with ideas for conservative clans, and since she became Hokage, new laws had come out, like recruits, education, salaries, for medicine Nins were in high priority and more peace friendlier politics among neighbor countries. Worst of all, she declared Hinata Hyuuga as medicine Nin without his own permission and that upsets him a lot. Not only that, females from Hyuuga clan, especially elder and married women, from both Main and Branch began gossips about Hinata behind her back, gather each other against her in their quiet way with their harsh tongue of whispers, pure of envy for knowing that she was gather herself against the norm, their way of living. Neji remembered times, when he was going to eat or taking shower after long missions, he could hear older women gossip about Hinata, talking about how she was dressed, what kind of perfume or make-up she had, the way of hair stylish, her attitude, neither so timid nor obedient anymore. They even talked about if she even was virgin and doing naughty stuff in her room, like young girls in these days. An unmarried Hyuuga girl without virginity, especially from Main House was not just scandal, but disaster. An old Hyuuga tradition had always been said that all maids shall remain pure, until that day, they wed with their husbands, and it was usually arranged marriage. Neji also remembered too many times, after watching in secret porn movies, he used to activate Byakugan, checking if Hinata was dressing off her clothes or doing something forbidden, like wearing her mothers jewels, putting her make-up with red pure lipstick or worse touching herself at womanhood, while holding a small photo with her tiny hand, moan like prostitute. How many times, didn't he come so much after spying his little cousin not far away from their rooms, she was even more attractive than his ex Tenten, he actually loathed like pest.
Tenten was never pure or beautiful in his eyes, she was just a temporally girlfriend until he could fuck without any scandals and later marry with pure, fine Hyuuga woman, who never had any sexual experience at all, but that day he saw Hinata touching herself, it complete destroy his illusions, his fantasy over perfect Hyuuga woman.
Neji decided with or without his uncle's permission, he began spying over Hinata more than allowed, he began sneaking few meters away, where she was training with her team, or when she had short missions or just hung out with other girls whenever it was for eating, shopping, or bathhouse. However, most of all, he spy when she spent more time with Shino or Kiba, when she actually wasn't allowed too. He hated her teammates; Kiba for being Inuzuka and that day, he defended and protected Hinata, when he was suppose to lecture Hinata as his duty and lost his ability for his duty of protection and Shino for simply being Hinata's friend and brother, when Neji was the one, who should be her friend and her protector! He could never forgive any of them and swore revenge one day, though years passed, all of the three became closer and closer. However, the relationship between heiress and protector become much worse, when he realize one day that he had forbidden attraction to Hinata right after he start spying with blood limit to her doing herself in her room. Moreover, every time he jerked off with naughty image of naked Hinata, he felt disgust and impure and by thought over that he had to get rid of forbidden lust, he started to date with other girls in village.
First, he dated Ino, but later she thought him as cold-hearted and left shortly after Sai called her beautiful. He also planned about dating Sakura, but after finding out that she was dating with Naruto, he simply stroke over Sakura's name on date list and after many search, he found Tenten and since he knew that she had crush on him since three years back, it was decided. He would date her, with only goal over getting over his obsession at his frail cousin. Tenten however didn't want just sex, she want more romance, she hoped that Neji could be little patient enough to wait for lovemaking and she started to dress more womanly, no longer pants, unless if ordered for missions or training. To Neji's dismay, she wore make-up, red lipstick with rouge and she also loosed her long hair and not only that, she wore high heals. For Neji, she looked more like a slut than his girlfriend and he become jealous every time hoards of male population starring at her walking feminine and he couldn't stand his former sensei Gai clapping his hand and shouted proudly”: WOW! Look at her! That's what I call a real woman! My little girl is finally growing up!” with tears in his eyes, Gai was happy for them. Tenten felt embarrassed, yelping”: Sensei! Stop embarrassing me this!” Gai just laughed, patting her back, giving her glint in his eyes, whispering; “I knew that he would catch you eventually! I am so proud of you Tenten! You'll be such a lovely wife one day!” ”Sensei please! Stop!” But she smiled too and not only that, she also started to look for Gai, as a father she never had and eventually Gai did Neji plenty’s of advice about women and sometimes money, only for buying love gifts and so on.
For Neji, it was very ridiculous, why would he buy silly gifts, and he already had money enough, for god’s sake! Neji was from the richest clan in whole country and he never saw her as perfect woman at all. Maybe he liked her, but that was before he started to date with her and he found many things about Tenten, he truly disliked or rather hated passionate. In addition, he couldn't understand Gai's advice at all, being nice, charming, treating her equally. For him, that never exists. Hyuuga men never treated their mates equally; women were rather men's possessions. Treat them like dogs they obeyed their masters.
That was the unwritten codes in Hyuuga clan, both in Main and branch, none of men would ever accept their women rebelling or even reject the bedding, it didn't matter if they were too tired, sick, nor busy with children. They never said no for their husbands or rather masters’ lust. Many times, Neji could hear or even watch some Hyuuga member beating, insulting their wives, without even rising eyebrow, he just continue doing his chores, ignoring woman's scream over pain. It was normal for them, well not every Hyuuga man beaten his wife, but one thing almost all of them from Main and Branch had common for, their superior over their wives.
But Tenten wasn’t part of Hyuuga clan, she was orphaned with no past, no family, no surname, just Tenten, a un-caged bird with free wings, unlike him, bonded with history, name and seal cage, she could fly whenever she could go to. When it comes to comparing Hinata with Tenten, both of them were complete opposite. While Hinata was shy and timid, Tenten were outspoken and confident and when Hinata was crying with her tears, she shows openly, but when Tenten cry, she hides it, always. When Hinata walked passive and quiet, Tenten walked inconsiderate and loudly and it goes same with fashions, when Hinata never puts herself in make-up and covers her body, Tenten showed her strong body figures, when she wasn’t training or at duties and it goes same with their attitudes toward men. Unlike Hinata, who was always insecure with boys and men, Tenten was never afraid of harsh, cold-hearted men, always at her high risk on danger; after all, known in town as most dangerous Weapon Mistress, nobody messed up with her, not even her sensei dared too. Sometimes she even knocks her own sensei down, if he pranks her too much with dirty jokes. Boys who tries to sexual harassing ended up in hospital, even Hokage Tsunade admits that Tenten was even more dangerous to perverts than herself.
But there was only one thing that Tenten could not win against, for Neji loving her back.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tenten woke up early, because she barely slept anything last night. However, she knew that she has to talk to Lee about her feelings, because she was not even sure if she wanted to continue with or remain alone. Afraid of being hurt again, she felt insecure toward men and the pain between her legs has not healed yet from all sores, but she knew that emotionally she probably never feel completely again. The confident she used to have vanished, as well as trust and belief in love and happiness. She did not care any longer about working out with her Justus or anything. She just took a morning shower, putted her clothes on, and went out for walking, without bothering fixing up her hair. Without thinking further, she passed by noodle bar, where she saw Naruto and Sakura chattering and eating their ramen noodles as they used to do this almost every morning and Sakura suddenly noticed Tenten and waved; “ OI! TENTEN!” “Hey Sakura-chan,” She said with low voice, neither cheers nor smile. “Tenten! Do you want to ramen noodles? There’s diet ramen, you know…” Sakura asked with less shout in her voice. “No thanks… I gotta see Lee-kun.” She answered. “But…” “Please Sakura-chan, not today. I’ am not in mood for anything.” With that Tenten left, while Naruto finally finished his ramen, watching after Tenten walking away, looking at Sakura and asked: “Hey Sakura-chan. What’s with Tenten? I never had seen her sulking around like that!” Sakura knowing too much of what that happened to Tenten sighed: “Long story, Naruto… long story…”
Further to the park, where she saw children playing football, she sat down at the bench, doing nothing, starring up at the sky, trying to think out about what she was going to tell Lee, suddenly she heard him rushing toward park after morning jogging. “Oi! Tenten-chan! Have you waiting for so long, my little flower?”
“No, not at all, Lee-kun.” She answered with sad tone. Lee noticed immediately that she looked tired, asked: “Hun, since when it was the last time, you’ve been trying to sleep. You need to sleep more, dear or you’ll won’t be able to…”
“I know and I don’t really care… please…” Both was silence, Tenten not daring to look at him, while he trying to figure out about what she wanted to say, then he asked: “Has Neji to do with it?”
“Lee-kun… I can’t…”
“Can’t what? Oh no, are you here only to tell that you’re breaking up with me?!” Lee was now serious with more emotions, he was about crying, but didn’t let any single drop of tear coming, not yet.
“Yes… I don’t think I’ am ready for any relationship. Please, find someone else.”
“But Tenten please! Give me a chance! I may not be as Neji, but I can help you! I… I love you Tenten!”
“I know… but I’m sorry. You have to let me go…”
“No! I can’t! You can’t be alone like this! You need someone to care about you and… I want you to trust people again…” Suddenly he could hear Tenten laughing, shrilling and looked now straight at his eyes; “Trust people? Really? Is that what you said? Care? When I was four, my parents abandon me out at Orphan house only because they could not love or care about me and because I was only a girl, another mouth to be feed. The orphan house never paid any attention to me and we were more than 100s, until I was 11 and kicked out, only to live at a little shack, only because saving their financial costs. At least Gai Sensei was generous enough to buy a little apartment for me, when nobody did. On other hand, not even as Chunnin anyone paid much attention to me. At least Neji was right about one thing, you and Gai Sensei were too busy to care for each other, while I was nothing than outcast. All I did was training by my own and Neji… he was the only one who really paid attention to me! I thought… I thought he really loved me! But… I was foolish enough to believe that… Things don’t come true in fairy-tales, doesn’t it?” Tenten’s face welled by tears, trying to brush it away and continue: “When I finally had him, I really… really thought that he was serious about our relationship and… I really thought everything was going to be like fairy tale, a poor little girl, finally having a prince in my arms and live happily together… I knew how cold and distant Hyuuga Clan was, but never had I expected that he would hurt me so much as this!”

Flashback
Tenten’s POV
I was somewhere at the Konoha park, where children still playing football in late afternoon, I wore the best dress with dark green color, and I had red lipstick with mascara. For what many around noticed, I looked exactly like Chinese dolls, but with style that was more modern and flashy. Neji was waiting for me, meditating as usual, he didn’t looked so calm, probably he was nervous about something, maybe he was going to surprise me something romantic.
Although I knew that Neji wasn’t known for romance, he actually did ask me out for first day, only for two months ago. I could never describe this happiness in my mind, I felt butterflies inside at my stomach, and for the first time, I paid so much attention for dressing up in one of finest clothes and more make-up I ever wore. I even asked Sakura-chan, my only female-friend for help and she actually bought a dark green dress for me, a bit too short, but no one had any idea how grateful I felt over Sakura. She was really my friend. As she helped me with make-up, she gave some flirt tips, that might spice up Neji’s relationship with mine, because we both know how cold he could be and probably with some fire, he might turn out as warmer and gentler person. Moreover, it was first time I did not tied my hair up in old hairstyle, instead my long hair looked flashy and beautiful with a flower diadem upon my head. Being nervous as I was, I walked slowly to Neji, who still meditating at the lawn field and as I was near him, I waited for him to look up at me, but he didn’t react a single, so I made a slight sound, only to wake him up a bit.
“Hello Neji-kun.” He opened his white eyes, turned his head around, looking up at me first with slight surprise; “Who are you?” Obviously, he did not recognize me, so I said; “It’s me, Tenten!”
”Oh!” He kept starring at me with nervous breathing, as he scratch his head with headband, trying to figure out of what to say; “Well... you look totally different than for a day ago...”
”When you asked me for going out with you. Yes, I really look forward too, Neji-kun” I said, pouting out with cute smile on my face. As we started to around the town, we went to one of finest restaurant, that was new decorated, a couples of years after when Lee-kun totally destroyed it, thanks to he accidentally drank a single drop of sake and made whole chaos, that not even Gai and Neji together could pull him down. To be honest, this restaurant looked so much better than it used to be. They had more lights with crystals and furniture very comfortable and fancy with dark red color. We sat down at the table, near the window and we small chat to each other. Actually I was the one who talked most, while Neji seemed too nervous to say much at all, until the waitress shows up about the order, I remember we both ordered sushi and we waited for another five minutes until the sushi was served at the table we sat. I remembered the taste of sushi, a bit sore, but loved it and I also thought about get some sake, but resist because I suddenly come up in mind that Neji hated drunk people, so I only took glass of water.
We never touched our hands or anything flirt like this, I rather talked with more smooth voice, since he seemed not comfortable with touching and I noticed him turning his head more than twice around; probably to check that nobody was watching over us. I asked, “Neji-kun? Where are you looking for?” Then he stops switching his head and said calmly, “Nothing. It’s nothing at all.” Moreover, he continues eating sushi and so did I. After the dinner, we went out again, the evening was still light, but the sun was going down as the moon already shows up and I couldn’t resist say something silly things, like most young girls did. Nevertheless, as unexpected, we noticed people starring at us, especially young males and some of them even dared to give their flirt eye-winks. As I tried to ignore it, Neji seemed constantly irritated and jealous, but as I thought jealousy was something normal, especially with someone, you love and he then looked down at me and asked, “Tenten. Next time, do not wear too flashy, especially not that dress. I can’t stand other men looking at you like this.”
“But I thought…” As I noticed his glare was serious, I gave up thinking about protesting, “Oh okay... I understand.” Then suddenly someone shouted: "WOW! Look at her! That's what I call a real woman! My little girl is finally growing up!” I knew that voice, Gai Sensei of all people and he had tears in his eyes, seemed so proud of us both. For me, he was such a pain in ass,”Sensei! Stop embarrassing me this!” Gai just laughed, patting my back, giving me the glint in his eyes, whispering; “I knew that he would catch you eventually! I am so proud of you Tenten! You'll be such a lovely wife one day!”
”Sensei please! Stop!” But I couldn’t resist giggling over this, I never thought he cared about us, I mean, he only paid most attention to Lee and Neji did not said anything, only looked annoying at Gai Sensei, as he started to give him some good advice. Although I was not meant to hear this, I did, because Gai sensei was never good at talking quiet, even about serious stuff.
“Now Neji, my boy! You’re almost grown now and as a grown man, I bet you have money enough to buy some gifts for her. You know, chocolates, candies, jewelery, roses or even better a ring for future marriage!”
“Sensei please…”
“Come on, Neji! Don’t look so angry! I’m just helping you! You need to learn being more cheerful and nice to your future wife.”
“She’s not my…”
“I know, I know, but!” he stopped as he now looked serious at Neji, as he continue with his speech, “I know, things been very hard for you emotionally, but I believe that with Tenten. You might finally feel happiness and I am talking to you, because I know your not so good at handle with women, but being kind and cheerful is one of keys for gather woman’s heart!”
“Hrn…” Neji just rolled over his eyes, he just wanted Gai to leave us alone and not talking about youth stuff all over again. I kept smiling, “Um Gai sensei. I think we need to be…”
“Oh of course! I am just an old fart in way between the young lovers! I’ll be leaving, but don’t forget the training tomorrow, cause it’s going to be a long one! So be there at 8.00! And Neji, don’t forget protection!” Before Neji had any thoughts about beating up our sensei, he disappeared, fastest of all ninjas. I could not resist laughing over Gai sensei’s last advice to Neji, how embarrassing wasn’t it and suddenly Neji glared over me and I immediately stop laughing and said, “Sorry Neji-kun. It’s just a first time, it’ll be better next time right?” Neji calmed himself down, sighing and said, “Yes, it will be better at next time. I’ll follow you home.” We went to my apartment where he dropped me here and there was neither kiss nor hugs. But I decided to wait for this, until Neji got more courage enough to open his arms.
However through one month, he never really took his step forward and I waited and waited patiently, I even once during the date, trying to dress more conservative, I even stopped wearing high heals, but he kept looking serious at me, he barely smiles at every time we went out together. I also remember the time I decided to take a chance, by holding his hand a gesture for my love, but he never held my hand back. Neji was rather annoyed about it and it didn’t help, when everyone was asking us about our relationship and come to that, I also saw his cousin Hinata smiling at me.
To be honest, I was never close to Hinata. I barely knew anything about her, only that she was Hyuuga heir and Neji’s protector. I also knew that he was very close to kill her during Chunnin exam, but when it happens, I was at hospital after my fiasco fight against too strong shinobi from Sand Village. I remember those times we girls hang out with parties and so on, Hinata was most quiet of all, she barely spoke anything, just like Neji. As we also found out about Sakura, finally admit that she had feelings for Naruto and they went out for date, Hinata become quieter, more depressed. While Sakura and Ino arguing each other about something, I noticed Hinata leaving the girl party earlier than expected and I saw through the window, when she threw herself into Kiba’s arms and crying. And he held her tightly, comforting her by stroking her hair and back.
I felt immediately jealous over Hinata, because she just got something than I never had, a man’s touch and comfort. Why couldn’t Neji be more like Kiba being sexy and lovable man? As I continue date with Neji, I also began spying over Hinata, when nobody, not even Neji was around. I never thought I would spy over someone, but I kept seeing Hinata with Kiba, unlike Neji and me, they hide their relationship from everyone as they were afraid of someone, I never heard them speaking openly about it. We others just speculated. Not even Shino-san or Kurenai-sensei said anything, the relationships between Team 8 remains mysterious and taboo like. When I talked to Ino about this, she just shook her head and said; “Well Team 8 are weirdos, simply. They never tell us anything about their private lives and hobbies. Even our sensei Asuma tries to ask Kurenai about it, with no success and her only response was, “Mind your own business over your team. Pathetic answer, that’s what I think!” Asking Hinata directly about it was out of question, because she just being nervous and afraid over someone, as Shino remains silent, ignoring as Kiba being pissed off and yelling over leaving his or her business alone.
One day, Neji and I were asked out for group dinner, as triple date, Sakura with Naruto, Ino with Sai, we all went to that same restaurant, where I dated with Neji for the first time, and we talked first about the food, drinks. Naruto only cares about ramen noodles, I remembered I wanted some Chinese dish, Neji wants sushi as Sakura wanted spicier dish than regular, when both Ino and Sai decided to have some yakitori. As we could hear Naruto arguing Sai about the penis jokes again, I talked to Sakura about new fashion trends, as Ino bragged about being most beautiful girl in whole Konoha, as Sai could not resist giggling at Sakura being pissed off over Ino’s usual brag.
Naruto whines also about being hungry as he asked Neji about our latest missions. As the our food were served and we ate with big appetite, except Ino who worries about gaining weight, as Sai simply told her that, she would look better with more meat than bones. Not long after we finished eating, Ino couldn’t resist bringing up the conversation about their private lives, the times Ino and Sai spent in bedroom. Sai bragged about his most giant penis and all sex acts they did, Naruto become jealous and spat out about he will use his shadow clones to do more sex scenes than Sai would ever dream about as Sakura felt complete embarrassed and smacks Naruto’s head for it. I had no idea of what to say, because things between Neji and I never really become intimate, even after soon two months of our relationship. Then Sai told them that he’s going to make a hentai comic between him and Ino, as Ino suddenly went furious about this, while Sakura laughed her ass off. Both Sakura and I were lucky enough for not having such a pervert boyfriend as Sai, who only talks about sex.
After those arguments, Ino suddenly asked, “What about you Tenten? Had anything nice happened between you and your boyfriend?” Then we were all quiet, Neji high his right eyebrow as I become nervous and stutter just like Hinata would. After all everyone realize that nothing really happened between us and Sakura looked a bit sad for me and Sai couldn’t resist asking Neji, “Well obviously Neji-san, does not have any cook to do his girlfriend.”
“I beg your pardon?” Neji suddenly hiss his tone. “
Well you and Tenten had been dating for over soon two month. Don’t you think it’s time you two to banging each other? I believe that your dear girlfriend is sexual frustrated over this and why? Obviously you don’t have a penis.” Sai answered with his usual malice smile. I could hear Neji growling over this, his eyes was very close to use his byakugan, but Naruto tries calm him down, “Hey don’t worry Neji! I didn’t touch Sakura until for few weeks ago! Believe it! I think you can do it Neji!” As Naruto made his thumb up, as he smiled cheerfully, but that didn’t help Neji a one bit, he still glared over Sai, as Sai kept smiling over this situation. Ino trying to ending up the horrid tension, she said, “Well of what I heard from my sensei. He’s finally dating with Kurenai sensei; you know a leader from team 8 and not only that. Asuma sensei were suspicious about Hinata’s feelings over one of her team-mates!”
“Oh really? When? With who?” Now Sakura was interesting as I could notice Neji wide his eyes as his palm were sweating. “Well, let me think… if I was right, we heard that Hinata’s being interesting over Kiba-kun.”
“Kiba-kun? No way! That’s awesome! I bet that he’ll doing a great job with his new girlfriend...” Naruto trailed as he frown over something; “Wait a minute! With Hinata? A shy girl who always stutter?!” Then Naruto poke his finger at Neji, “You Neji of all people! You’re Hinata’s protector and yet you never said anything about this!” Before Neji said anything, Sakura said, “Naruto, please! Maybe Neji didn’t know about this, because…”
“They are hiding the common love for each other…” I interrupted nervously as I drank green tea. “Oh really Tenten? How do you know that they’re really a couple?” Ino asked. I looked nervous around the table as Neji were glaring over me, like; why I never said anything about it earlier, but I calmed down and answered, “Remember when we had a girl party, when you and Sakura were arguing a bit?” Both of the girls nodded and I continue; “Well I was looking at the window and the first one who noticed Hinata leaving after you Sakura told us that you’re dating Naruto and I saw her running toward Kiba and throwing her arms over him and I could see him holding her tight and stroking her hair...” I stopped as I could feel bad tension from Neji’s side, he didn’t look at me anymore, he rather looked at the window, probably angry about it. I knew that romance from Main House was taboo and that the marriages were always arranged either with relatives or with other lords from other noble clans. I couldn’t remember when I ever heard about Hyuuga member falling in love after marriage, beside I knew almost nothing about their traditions and because I’ve never seen any Hyuuga women going out. I have only seen younger girls, but never women.
“Oh my god... and Hinata is heir of the clan! This had never happened in Hyuuga Clan before, right Neji-kun?” Sakura asked, even she knew that Hyuuga women never dated with outsiders and they always married internal and lives isolated. “I just hope that, no one from Hyuuga Clan knows about this. It could be such a troublesome as Shikamaru-kun would add.” Ino said, feeling regret over mentioning Hinata’s name, when everyone noticed Neji’s being more reserved, but sweating. Neji stood up and said; “I gotta go. Excuse me.”
As he was leaving, I suddenly followed him, without thinking about paying the bills or anyone shouting after us. Neji was walking further as I followed him, trying to reasoning with him, talking about what we could do to help Hinata, but he then glared furiously at me as we few minutes later stops over at training ground we used to go there for training and he was worse in his mood.
“Neji-kun… please... let me explain…”
“Explain what? You have nothing to explain about this! How dare you hiding those things from me! Hinata-sama is forbidden to date with anyone, especially with Inuzuka-brat! And you dared to keep that in secret for how long? A month!?”
“Neji-kun… why are you so angry about this? Aren’t you happy for Hinata? I mean, she’s been looking for love and I personally think that Kiba-kun is good for her.”
“Good for her? Good for what? Him bedding her? Is that what you’re trying to say? ANSWER ME TENTEN!” Neji roared as I started crying.
“Neji...why? You sound like your jealous boyfriend over her…”
“Shut up! Hinata has no rights…NO RIGHTS TO DATE WITH ANYONE AT ALL! Dating outsiders is strictly forbidden from Main House! I can’t believe that she broke over 200years of Hyuuga Clan rules about this! An heir acts the biggest sin against herself and the clan! None of women from Hyuuga Clan had ever done it and I want this filthy act to end once it for all and I’m going to stop Kiba!”
“No! You can’t do this! If you doing those things, everyone will know that and Inuzuka clan will not be happy about the actions!” Suddenly Neji pushed me down to the ground, as I tried to stand up, he pushed me again and when I was looking up, I could hear and feel a smack right against my left cheek. Being shock about the slap and pain I felt, he started shaking my body, yelling with all worst curses he ever spit out, all over so much that I couldn’t remember, only her name, Hinata. I had never seen him like this, he seemed so devastated, so heartbroken, and I thought I was his beloved. I kept hearing his scream, why it has to be me instead of her. Why I were in his way and most o all why I was not part of Hyuuga Clan, as he began torn off my silk dress, my beautiful dress and button off his flies as he reach a top of me. When I felt my panties pulling off, I know I should have fought back, but the shock was still around me as I suddenly felt the pain between my legs. Neji kept trusting harder and faster, while I bite my lips for not screaming, but plead him with sad eyes to stop, but he never seemed to hear me and as soon as he suddenly stopped by coming inside of me. He just stood up, button on his flies and walked away, while I still lie on the ground, bleeding, and whimpering over this nightmare.

“Tenten please...” Lee was about saying something, but in the end, he couldn’t. Tenten told everything about this past, the betrayal, false hope, pain… She stood up from the bench as she looked at him with scowl in her face, with no more word left; she walked away, not looking back. Lee was however sobbing hard, first for a long time, he never felt as hurt as in childhood, when he was nothing in Shinobi’s eyes. First by Neji as a friend and teammate, then Sakura, his crush who could never love him at all and now Tenten, who simply lost her hope and now all three in former team Gai was vanished for good.

Chapter 7 – Envy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neji Hyuuga sat alone in his room, drinking tea for simple breakfast, finding out about Hinata's running away, upsets everyone in household, and he followed his uncle early in morning, only for reporting Hinata missing. They knew that they couldn't afford finding her first without mentioning to Hokage Tsunade, although he knew somehow that Tsunade gave him a short glare by telling him that eventually he'll be in charge for crimes he committed for few days ago. Neji just lower his eyes, with smirk on his face; “Fat chance! As long as I’ am protected by my own uncle, I won't be in charge at all.” However, he spoke nothing and his uncle did the job, by talking shortly about the heir's missing, they left after report, and Hiashi told him to now go and look for Hinata.
He did, he went first to Kurenai's apartment, by using his byakugan, he found out that Kurenai was home alone, so he went next to Aburame's household and only few members were at home, Shino and his father gone for some mission. At last, he went to Inuzuka's household and there on distant, he found Hinata, sleeping at Kiba's room with Akamaru and he saw Kiba sleeping on couch with all booze around. Neji decided to observe and wait. Sometimes he could stay, guarding in same place for more than 24hours, but eventually, he knew that he had to leave before any Inuzuka members shows up with their sensitive noses. Then he saw Kiba waking up, stood up and went to his room, checking after Hinata, when Akamaru suddenly went out of this room, only for waking Akamaru's other dogs up.
Just probably ten minutes later, he saw Kiba doing something unaccepted touch, giving Hinata a tight hug, seeing her crying on his well build chest, rocking the girl front and back, like mother's comforting frighten child and not believing in his eyes. He saw Hinata lean over Kiba, kissing like she never kissed a man before, with pure passion and Kiba took over his dominance by giving her more French kissing and later he pulled the girl down. Watching Kiba playing her body with his warm hands, was more than Neji could bare, his blood were rising in rage, perhaps by jealousy and rejected over that she hurted his pride, his mandom. Nevertheless, continue watching Kiba slowly taking off her clothes and Hinata's milky soft breasts, pooped out, Neji never knew that her nipples could be so hard and perfect! Suddenly they stopped kissing, looking at each other, Hinata seemed nervous, Kiba softly stroke her cheek, gave her more tender kiss and then both held each other, when suddenly he could see Kiba trusting her inside. And pang! His chest felt heavy, his palm sweating, he never sweats so much before, not even his second Chunnin exam or even Jounin, his eyes kept wide with blood limit, feeling his knees falling apart, he tried stand, but then his legs collapsed. Watching his rival touching his fianceeée in every piece of her petite body, Hinata just moan of pleasure, screaming his name repeatedly. Neji wanted to step closer, to stop them continue making love, but then he could suddenly hear some footsteps and then he just flung off from the ground and panicky hurried out from this household, hurted and furious. Far away from everything and he didn't remember how far he ran, but in the end he realize that he was outside of Konoha town and he hide himself somewhere in forest shaking, panting, sweating. He could barely catch the breath until he collapsed over the ground, feeling his clothes getting dirty, he just lean himself over the tree, trying to catch breath, but the images over naked Hinata moaning over Kiba's touch, kept coming back in his mind. Grabbing the stone, he furiously tossed it far away, screaming, and grunting”; fuck... FUCK YOU MAIN WHORE!!” panting after the screaming, he simply lay down again, whispering”: Why? Why him? Why dog breath of all people!? I cannot believe it, first the fucking blond-haired person and now him of all people!? My eternal enemy! Why Kiba? Damn you Hinata-sama...damn you filthy little bitch! I must get my revenge... I swear... I swear! You're not getting away with this! I will show Kiba who belongs to whom.” Thinking over about it, he knew this wasn't first time he was reject at all, but this time, it was far greater. Not only that Hinata rejected him, she made love with the clans’ eternal enemy, Inuzuka.
Inuzuka and Hyuuga had never been in good term; in fact, both Clans hated each other. Of what Neji’s been told from the clans old ancient stories of the past before Konohagakure exist as one of fifth great country; Hyuuga and Inuzuka had fought each other, several of times and lost many of their members. To survive both Hyuuga and Inuzuka made pacts with other clans, Hyuuga with Uchiha, Inuzuka with Aburame and that came natural, since Byakugan and Sharingan had common powers, while both Inuzuka and Aburame possessed nature creatures like bugs and dogs. But that day when Konohagakure were build and Clans were competing each other for the title of being most powerful, Inuzuka lost, because of impulsiveness and brashness, and Aburame also lost because they did not had strong power enough for beat up Hyuuga or Uchiha.
Hyuuga however become one of greatest and most powerful clan since the first man became Hokage and it was also thanks to Hyuuga's abilities that made Konohagakure so powerful and their distant relative clan Uchiha, who possessed Sharingan became the second powerful clan and known for Police force in this country.
The losers, well it was both Aburame and Inuzuka, well that's what the both Clans had realize whom clan the first Hokage's favorite and they became bitter and the clans were splitted out and many of distant members of both Aburame and Inuzuka, lived around the fifth countries.
And when the first got killed, neither Aburame and Inuzuka came for funeral, rather happy about it and hoped that the future would be brighter, but Hyuuga and Uchiha kept the growing stronger and bigger, they had own streets, own buildings, shopping’s, temples, and even their own army. Nevertheless, with second Hokage, he tried reform the law system, by all clans should being treated equally, but then the war came out and all of clans were out on battlefields, and members of all clans became less and less. When Third Hokage, things got terrible because of all war financial costs and too many ninjas death and he had to sacrifice a lot, only for keeping Konohagakure’s standard. Because of what happened in past, none of clan leaders ever spoke to each other at all, only in political or mission terms.
That was what Neji knew and heard and he did everything to avoid Aburame and Inuzuka, but when Hinata, the heir became part of team with Inuzuka and Aburame members, Hyuuga was not pleased of this news. However since Hinata became useless and week for this powerful clan, Hiashi Hyuuga didn't care about the elders feelings and simply told them that she might die in missions and all things would be clear and another rightful child will be next clan leader, like Hanabi.
To everyone's surprise Hinata didn't got weaker or died, no she grew stronger, become more confident and even won Hokage Tsunade's trust and loyalty by her hard work and not because of she's heir of noble clan and so much that suddenly Sakura was outcast from Tsunade’s favorite student list. Instead of fighting for Jounin title, against the clans will, she wanted to educate in medicine branch like her eternal rivals Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka. Hiashi Hyuuga hated Tsunade of good reasons, she was too radical with ideas for conservative clans, and since she became Hokage, new laws had come out, like recruits, education, salaries, for medicine Nins were in high priority and more peace friendlier politics among neighbor countries. Worst of all, she declared Hinata Hyuuga as medicine Nin without his own permission and that upsets him a lot. Not only that, females from Hyuuga clan, especially elder and married women, from both Main and Branch began gossips about Hinata behind her back, gather each other against her in their quiet way with their harsh tongue of whispers, pure of envy for knowing that she was gather herself against the norm, their way of living. Neji remembered times, when he was going to eat or taking shower after long missions, he could hear older women gossip about Hinata, talking about how she was dressed, what kind of perfume or make-up she had, the way of hair stylish, her attitude, neither so timid nor obedient anymore. They even talked about if she even was virgin and doing naughty stuff in her room, like young girls in these days. An unmarried Hyuuga girl without virginity, especially from Main House was not just scandal, but disaster. An old Hyuuga tradition had always been said that all maids shall remain pure, until that day, they wed with their husbands, and it was usually arranged marriage. Neji also remembered too many times, after watching in secret porn movies, he used to activate Byakugan, checking if Hinata was dressing off her clothes or doing something forbidden, like wearing her mothers jewels, putting her make-up with red pure lipstick or worse touching herself at womanhood, while holding a small photo with her tiny hand, moan like prostitute. How many times, didn't he come so much after spying his little cousin not far away from their rooms, she was even more attractive than his ex Tenten, he actually loathed like pest.
Tenten was never pure or beautiful in his eyes, she was just a temporally girlfriend until he could fuck without any scandals and later marry with pure, fine Hyuuga woman, who never had any sexual experience at all, but that day he saw Hinata touching herself, it complete destroy his illusions, his fantasy over perfect Hyuuga woman.
Neji decided with or without his uncle's permission, he began spying over Hinata more than allowed, he began sneaking few meters away, where she was training with her team, or when she had short missions or just hung out with other girls whenever it was for eating, shopping, or bathhouse. However, most of all, he spy when she spent more time with Shino or Kiba, when she actually wasn't allowed too. He hated her teammates; Kiba for being Inuzuka and that day, he defended and protected Hinata, when he was suppose to lecture Hinata as his duty and lost his ability for his duty of protection and Shino for simply being Hinata's friend and brother, when Neji was the one, who should be her friend and her protector! He could never forgive any of them and swore revenge one day, though years passed, all of the three became closer and closer. However, the relationship between heiress and protector become much worse, when he realize one day that he had forbidden attraction to Hinata right after he start spying with blood limit to her doing herself in her room. Moreover, every time he jerked off with naughty image of naked Hinata, he felt disgust and impure and by thought over that he had to get rid of forbidden lust, he started to date with other girls in village.
First, he dated Ino, but later she thought him as cold-hearted and left shortly after Sai called her beautiful. He also planned about dating Sakura, but after finding out that she was dating with Naruto, he simply stroke over Sakura's name on date list and after many search, he found Tenten and since he knew that she had crush on him since three years back, it was decided. He would date her, with only goal over getting over his obsession at his frail cousin. Tenten however didn't want just sex, she want more romance, she hoped that Neji could be little patient enough to wait for lovemaking and she started to dress more womanly, no longer pants, unless if ordered for missions or training. To Neji's dismay, she wore make-up, red lipstick with rouge and she also loosed her long hair and not only that, she wore high heals. For Neji, she looked more like a slut than his girlfriend and he become jealous every time hoards of male population starring at her walking feminine and he couldn't stand his former sensei Gai clapping his hand and shouted proudly”: WOW! Look at her! That's what I call a real woman! My little girl is finally growing up!” with tears in his eyes, Gai was happy for them. Tenten felt embarrassed, yelping”: Sensei! Stop embarrassing me this!” Gai just laughed, patting her back, giving her glint in his eyes, whispering; “I knew that he would catch you eventually! I am so proud of you Tenten! You'll be such a lovely wife one day!” ”Sensei please! Stop!” But she smiled too and not only that, she also started to look for Gai, as a father she never had and eventually Gai did Neji plenty’s of advice about women and sometimes money, only for buying love gifts and so on.
For Neji, it was very ridiculous, why would he buy silly gifts, and he already had money enough, for god’s sake! Neji was from the richest clan in whole country and he never saw her as perfect woman at all. Maybe he liked her, but that was before he started to date with her and he found many things about Tenten, he truly disliked or rather hated passionate. In addition, he couldn't understand Gai's advice at all, being nice, charming, treating her equally. For him, that never exists. Hyuuga men never treated their mates equally; women were rather men's possessions. Treat them like dogs they obeyed their masters.
That was the unwritten codes in Hyuuga clan, both in Main and branch, none of men would ever accept their women rebelling or even reject the bedding, it didn't matter if they were too tired, sick, nor busy with children. They never said no for their husbands or rather masters’ lust. Many times, Neji could hear or even watch some Hyuuga member beating, insulting their wives, without even rising eyebrow, he just continue doing his chores, ignoring woman's scream over pain. It was normal for them, well not every Hyuuga man beaten his wife, but one thing almost all of them from Main and Branch had common for, their superior over their wives.
But Tenten wasn’t part of Hyuuga clan, she was orphaned with no past, no family, no surname, just Tenten, a un-caged bird with free wings, unlike him, bonded with history, name and seal cage, she could fly whenever she could go to. When it comes to comparing Hinata with Tenten, both of them were complete opposite. While Hinata was shy and timid, Tenten were outspoken and confident and when Hinata was crying with her tears, she shows openly, but when Tenten cry, she hides it, always. When Hinata walked passive and quiet, Tenten walked inconsiderate and loudly and it goes same with fashions, when Hinata never puts herself in make-up and covers her body, Tenten showed her strong body figures, when she wasn’t training or at duties and it goes same with their attitudes toward men. Unlike Hinata, who was always insecure with boys and men, Tenten was never afraid of harsh, cold-hearted men, always at her high risk on danger; after all, known in town as most dangerous Weapon Mistress, nobody messed up with her, not even her sensei dared too. Sometimes she even knocks her own sensei down, if he pranks her too much with dirty jokes. Boys who tries to sexual harassing ended up in hospital, even Hokage Tsunade admits that Tenten was even more dangerous to perverts than herself.
But there was only one thing that Tenten could not win against, for Neji loving her back.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tenten woke up early, because she barely slept anything last night. However, she knew that she has to talk to Lee about her feelings, because she was not even sure if she wanted to continue with or remain alone. Afraid of being hurt again, she felt insecure toward men and the pain between her legs has not healed yet from all sores, but she knew that emotionally she probably never feel completely again. The confident she used to have vanished, as well as trust and belief in love and happiness. She did not care any longer about working out with her Justus or anything. She just took a morning shower, putted her clothes on, and went out for walking, without bothering fixing up her hair. Without thinking further, she passed by noodle bar, where she saw Naruto and Sakura chattering and eating their ramen noodles as they used to do this almost every morning and Sakura suddenly noticed Tenten and waved; “ OI! TENTEN!” “Hey Sakura-chan,” She said with low voice, neither cheers nor smile. “Tenten! Do you want to ramen noodles? There’s diet ramen, you know…” Sakura asked with less shout in her voice. “No thanks… I gotta see Lee-kun.” She answered. “But…” “Please Sakura-chan, not today. I’ am not in mood for anything.” With that Tenten left, while Naruto finally finished his ramen, watching after Tenten walking away, looking at Sakura and asked: “Hey Sakura-chan. What’s with Tenten? I never had seen her sulking around like that!” Sakura knowing too much of what that happened to Tenten sighed: “Long story, Naruto… long story…”
Further to the park, where she saw children playing football, she sat down at the bench, doing nothing, starring up at the sky, trying to think out about what she was going to tell Lee, suddenly she heard him rushing toward park after morning jogging. “Oi! Tenten-chan! Have you waiting for so long, my little flower?”
“No, not at all, Lee-kun.” She answered with sad tone. Lee noticed immediately that she looked tired, asked: “Hun, since when it was the last time, you’ve been trying to sleep. You need to sleep more, dear or you’ll won’t be able to…”
“I know and I don’t really care… please…” Both was silence, Tenten not daring to look at him, while he trying to figure out about what she wanted to say, then he asked: “Has Neji to do with it?”
“Lee-kun… I can’t…”
“Can’t what? Oh no, are you here only to tell that you’re breaking up with me?!” Lee was now serious with more emotions, he was about crying, but didn’t let any single drop of tear coming, not yet.
“Yes… I don’t think I’ am ready for any relationship. Please, find someone else.”
“But Tenten please! Give me a chance! I may not be as Neji, but I can help you! I… I love you Tenten!”
“I know… but I’m sorry. You have to let me go…”
“No! I can’t! You can’t be alone like this! You need someone to care about you and… I want you to trust people again…” Suddenly he could hear Tenten laughing, shrilling and looked now straight at his eyes; “Trust people? Really? Is that what you said? Care? When I was four, my parents abandon me out at Orphan house only because they could not love or care about me and because I was only a girl, another mouth to be feed. The orphan house never paid any attention to me and we were more than 100s, until I was 11 and kicked out, only to live at a little shack, only because saving their financial costs. At least Gai Sensei was generous enough to buy a little apartment for me, when nobody did. On other hand, not even as Chunnin anyone paid much attention to me. At least Neji was right about one thing, you and Gai Sensei were too busy to care for each other, while I was nothing than outcast. All I did was training by my own and Neji… he was the only one who really paid attention to me! I thought… I thought he really loved me! But… I was foolish enough to believe that… Things don’t come true in fairy-tales, doesn’t it?” Tenten’s face welled by tears, trying to brush it away and continue: “When I finally had him, I really… really thought that he was serious about our relationship and… I really thought everything was going to be like fairy tale, a poor little girl, finally having a prince in my arms and live happily together… I knew how cold and distant Hyuuga Clan was, but never had I expected that he would hurt me so much as this!”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flashback
Tenten’s POV
I was somewhere at the Konoha park, where children still playing football in late afternoon, I wore the best dress with dark green color, and I had red lipstick with mascara. For what many around noticed, I looked exactly like Chinese dolls, but with style that was more modern and flashy. Neji was waiting for me, meditating as usual, he didn’t looked so calm, probably he was nervous about something, maybe he was going to surprise me something romantic.
Although I knew that Neji wasn’t known for romance, he actually did ask me out for first day, only for two months ago. I could never describe this happiness in my mind, I felt butterflies inside at my stomach, and for the first time, I paid so much attention for dressing up in one of finest clothes and more make-up I ever wore. I even asked Sakura-chan, my only female-friend for help and she actually bought a dark green dress for me, a bit too short, but no one had any idea how grateful I felt over Sakura. She was really my friend. As she helped me with make-up, she gave some flirt tips, that might spice up Neji’s relationship with mine, because we both know how cold he could be and probably with some fire, he might turn out as warmer and gentler person. Moreover, it was first time I did not tied my hair up in old hairstyle, instead my long hair looked flashy and beautiful with a flower diadem upon my head. Being nervous as I was, I walked slowly to Neji, who still meditating at the lawn field and as I was near him, I waited for him to look up at me, but he didn’t react a single, so I made a slight sound, only to wake him up a bit.
“Hello Neji-kun.” He opened his white eyes, turned his head around, looking up at me first with slight surprise; “Who are you?” Obviously, he did not recognize me, so I said; “It’s me, Tenten!”
”Oh!” He kept starring at me with nervous breathing, as he scratch his head with headband, trying to figure out of what to say; “Well... you look totally different than for a day ago...”
”When you asked me for going out with you. Yes, I really look forward too, Neji-kun” I said, pouting out with cute smile on my face. As we started to around the town, we went to one of finest restaurant, that was new decorated, a couples of years after when Lee-kun totally destroyed it, thanks to he accidentally drank a single drop of sake and made whole chaos, that not even Gai and Neji together could pull him down. To be honest, this restaurant looked so much better than it used to be. They had more lights with crystals and furniture very comfortable and fancy with dark red color. We sat down at the table, near the window and we small chat to each other. Actually I was the one who talked most, while Neji seemed too nervous to say much at all, until the waitress shows up about the order, I remember we both ordered sushi and we waited for another five minutes until the sushi was served at the table we sat. I remembered the taste of sushi, a bit sore, but loved it and I also thought about get some sake, but resist because I suddenly come up in mind that Neji hated drunk people, so I only took glass of water.
We never touched our hands or anything flirt like this, I rather talked with more smooth voice, since he seemed not comfortable with touching and I noticed him turning his head more than twice around; probably to check that nobody was watching over us. I asked, “Neji-kun? Where are you looking for?” Then he stops switching his head and said calmly, “Nothing. It’s nothing at all.” Moreover, he continues eating sushi and so did I. After the dinner, we went out again, the evening was still light, but the sun was going down as the moon already shows up and I couldn’t resist say something silly things, like most young girls did. Nevertheless, as unexpected, we noticed people starring at us, especially young males and some of them even dared to give their flirt eye-winks. As I tried to ignore it, Neji seemed constantly irritated and jealous, but as I thought jealousy was something normal, especially with someone, you love and he then looked down at me and asked, “Tenten. Next time, do not wear too flashy, especially not that dress. I can’t stand other men looking at you like this.”
“But I thought…” As I noticed his glare was serious, I gave up thinking about protesting, “Oh okay... I understand.” Then suddenly someone shouted: "WOW! Look at her! That's what I call a real woman! My little girl is finally growing up!” I knew that voice, Gai Sensei of all people and he had tears in his eyes, seemed so proud of us both. For me, he was such a pain in ass,”Sensei! Stop embarrassing me this!” Gai just laughed, patting my back, giving me the glint in his eyes, whispering; “I knew that he would catch you eventually! I am so proud of you Tenten! You'll be such a lovely wife one day!”
”Sensei please! Stop!” But I couldn’t resist giggling over this, I never thought he cared about us, I mean, he only paid most attention to Lee and Neji did not said anything, only looked annoying at Gai Sensei, as he started to give him some good advice. Although I was not meant to hear this, I did, because Gai sensei was never good at talking quiet, even about serious stuff.
“Now Neji, my boy! You’re almost grown now and as a grown man, I bet you have money enough to buy some gifts for her. You know, chocolates, candies, jewelery, roses or even better a ring for future marriage!”
“Sensei please…”
“Come on, Neji! Don’t look so angry! I’m just helping you! You need to learn being more cheerful and nice to your future wife.”
“She’s not my…”
“I know, I know, but!” he stopped as he now looked serious at Neji, as he continue with his speech, “I know, things been very hard for you emotionally, but I believe that with Tenten. You might finally feel happiness and I am talking to you, because I know your not so good at handle with women, but being kind and cheerful is one of keys for gather woman’s heart!”
“Hrn…” Neji just rolled over his eyes, he just wanted Gai to leave us alone and not talking about youth stuff all over again. I kept smiling, “Um Gai sensei. I think we need to be…”
“Oh of course! I am just an old fart in way between the young lovers! I’ll be leaving, but don’t forget the training tomorrow, cause it’s going to be a long one! So be there at 8.00! And Neji, don’t forget protection!” Before Neji had any thoughts about beating up our sensei, he disappeared, fastest of all ninjas. I could not resist laughing over Gai sensei’s last advice to Neji, how embarrassing wasn’t it and suddenly Neji glared over me and I immediately stop laughing and said, “Sorry Neji-kun. It’s just a first time, it’ll be better next time right?” Neji calmed himself down, sighing and said, “Yes, it will be better at next time. I’ll follow you home.” We went to my apartment where he dropped me here and there was neither kiss nor hugs. But I decided to wait for this, until Neji got more courage enough to open his arms.
However through one month, he never really took his step forward and I waited and waited patiently, I even once during the date, trying to dress more conservative, I even stopped wearing high heals, but he kept looking serious at me, he barely smiles at every time we went out together. I also remember the time I decided to take a chance, by holding his hand a gesture for my love, but he never held my hand back. Neji was rather annoyed about it and it didn’t help, when everyone was asking us about our relationship and come to that, I also saw his cousin Hinata smiling at me.
To be honest, I was never close to Hinata. I barely knew anything about her, only that she was Hyuuga heir and Neji’s protector. I also knew that he was very close to kill her during Chunnin exam, but when it happens, I was at hospital after my fiasco fight against too strong shinobi from Sand Village. I remember those times we girls hang out with parties and so on, Hinata was most quiet of all, she barely spoke anything, just like Neji. As we also found out about Sakura, finally admit that she had feelings for Naruto and they went out for date, Hinata become quieter, more depressed. While Sakura and Ino arguing each other about something, I noticed Hinata leaving the girl party earlier than expected and I saw through the window, when she threw herself into Kiba’s arms and crying. And he held her tightly, comforting her by stroking her hair and back.
I felt immediately jealous over Hinata, because she just got something than I never had, a man’s touch and comfort. Why couldn’t Neji be more like Kiba being sexy and lovable man? As I continue date with Neji, I also began spying over Hinata, when nobody, not even Neji was around. I never thought I would spy over someone, but I kept seeing Hinata with Kiba, unlike Neji and me, they hide their relationship from everyone as they were afraid of someone, I never heard them speaking openly about it. We others just speculated. Not even Shino-san or Kurenai-sensei said anything, the relationships between Team 8 remains mysterious and taboo like. When I talked to Ino about this, she just shook her head and said; “Well Team 8 are weirdos, simply. They never tell us anything about their private lives and hobbies. Even our sensei Asuma tries to ask Kurenai about it, with no success and her only response was, “Mind your own business over your team. Pathetic answer, that’s what I think!” Asking Hinata directly about it was out of question, because she just being nervous and afraid over someone, as Shino remains silent, ignoring as Kiba being pissed off and yelling over leaving his or her business alone.
One day, Neji and I were asked out for group dinner, as triple date, Sakura with Naruto, Ino with Sai, we all went to that same restaurant, where I dated with Neji for the first time, and we talked first about the food, drinks. Naruto only cares about ramen noodles, I remembered I wanted some Chinese dish, Neji wants sushi as Sakura wanted spicier dish than regular, when both Ino and Sai decided to have some yakitori. As we could hear Naruto arguing Sai about the penis jokes again, I talked to Sakura about new fashion trends, as Ino bragged about being most beautiful girl in whole Konoha, as Sai could not resist giggling at Sakura being pissed off over Ino’s usual brag.
Naruto whines also about being hungry as he asked Neji about our latest missions. As the our food were served and we ate with big appetite, except Ino who worries about gaining weight, as Sai simply told her that, she would look better with more meat than bones. Not long after we finished eating, Ino couldn’t resist bringing up the conversation about their private lives, the times Ino and Sai spent in bedroom. Sai bragged about his most giant penis and all sex acts they did, Naruto become jealous and spat out about he will use his shadow clones to do more sex scenes than Sai would ever dream about as Sakura felt complete embarrassed and smacks Naruto’s head for it. I had no idea of what to say, because things between Neji and I never really become intimate, even after soon two months of our relationship. Then Sai told them that he’s going to make a hentai comic between him and Ino, as Ino suddenly went furious about this, while Sakura laughed her ass off. Both Sakura and I were lucky enough for not having such a pervert boyfriend as Sai, who only talks about sex.
After those arguments, Ino suddenly asked, “What about you Tenten? Had anything nice happened between you and your boyfriend?” Then we were all quiet, Neji high his right eyebrow as I become nervous and stutter just like Hinata would. After all everyone realize that nothing really happened between us and Sakura looked a bit sad for me and Sai couldn’t resist asking Neji, “Well obviously Neji-san, does not have any cook to do his girlfriend.”
“I beg your pardon?” Neji suddenly hiss his tone. “
Well you and Tenten had been dating for over soon two month. Don’t you think it’s time you two to banging each other? I believe that your dear girlfriend is sexual frustrated over this and why? Obviously you don’t have a penis.” Sai answered with his usual malice smile. I could hear Neji growling over this, his eyes was very close to use his byakugan, but Naruto tries calm him down, “Hey don’t worry Neji! I didn’t touch Sakura until for few weeks ago! Believe it! I think you can do it Neji!” As Naruto made his thumb up, as he smiled cheerfully, but that didn’t help Neji a one bit, he still glared over Sai, as Sai kept smiling over this situation. Ino trying to ending up the horrid tension, she said, “Well of what I heard from my sensei. He’s finally dating with Kurenai sensei; you know a leader from team 8 and not only that. Asuma sensei were suspicious about Hinata’s feelings over one of her team-mates!”
“Oh really? When? With who?” Now Sakura was interesting as I could notice Neji wide his eyes as his palm were sweating. “Well, let me think… if I was right, we heard that Hinata’s being interesting over Kiba-kun.”
“Kiba-kun? No way! That’s awesome! I bet that he’ll doing a great job with his new girlfriend...” Naruto trailed as he frown over something; “Wait a minute! With Hinata? A shy girl who always stutter?!” Then Naruto poke his finger at Neji, “You Neji of all people! You’re Hinata’s protector and yet you never said anything about this!” Before Neji said anything, Sakura said, “Naruto, please! Maybe Neji didn’t know about this, because…”
“They are hiding the common love for each other…” I interrupted nervously as I drank green tea. “Oh really Tenten? How do you know that they’re really a couple?” Ino asked. I looked nervous around the table as Neji were glaring over me, like; why I never said anything about it earlier, but I calmed down and answered, “Remember when we had a girl party, when you and Sakura were arguing a bit?” Both of the girls nodded and I continue; “Well I was looking at the window and the first one who noticed Hinata leaving after you Sakura told us that you’re dating Naruto and I saw her running toward Kiba and throwing her arms over him and I could see him holding her tight and stroking her hair...” I stopped as I could feel bad tension from Neji’s side, he didn’t look at me anymore, he rather looked at the window, probably angry about it. I knew that romance from Main House was taboo and that the marriages were always arranged either with relatives or with other lords from other noble clans. I couldn’t remember when I ever heard about Hyuuga member falling in love after marriage, beside I knew almost nothing about their traditions and because I’ve never seen any Hyuuga women going out. I have only seen younger girls, but never women.
“Oh my god... and Hinata is heir of the clan! This had never happened in Hyuuga Clan before, right Neji-kun?” Sakura asked, even she knew that Hyuuga women never dated with outsiders and they always married internal and lives isolated. “I just hope that, no one from Hyuuga Clan knows about this. It could be such a troublesome as Shikamaru-kun would add.” Ino said, feeling regret over mentioning Hinata’s name, when everyone noticed Neji’s being more reserved, but sweating. Neji stood up and said; “I gotta go. Excuse me.”
As he was leaving, I suddenly followed him, without thinking about paying the bills or anyone shouting after us. Neji was walking further as I followed him, trying to reasoning with him, talking about what we could do to help Hinata, but he then glared furiously at me as we few minutes later stops over at training ground we used to go there for training and he was worse in his mood.
“Neji-kun… please... let me explain…”
“Explain what? You have nothing to explain about this! How dare you hiding those things from me! Hinata-sama is forbidden to date with anyone, especially with Inuzuka-brat! And you dared to keep that in secret for how long? A month!?”
“Neji-kun… why are you so angry about this? Aren’t you happy for Hinata? I mean, she’s been looking for love and I personally think that Kiba-kun is good for her.”
“Good for her? Good for what? Him bedding her? Is that what you’re trying to say? ANSWER ME TENTEN!” Neji roared as I started crying.
“Neji...why? You sound like your jealous boyfriend over her…”
“Shut up! Hinata has no rights…NO RIGHTS TO DATE WITH ANYONE AT ALL! Dating outsiders is strictly forbidden from Main House! I can’t believe that she broke over 200years of Hyuuga Clan rules about this! An heir acts the biggest sin against herself and the clan! None of women from Hyuuga Clan had ever done it and I want this filthy act to end once it for all and I’m going to stop Kiba!”
“No! You can’t do this! If you doing those things, everyone will know that and Inuzuka clan will not be happy about the actions!” Suddenly Neji pushed me down to the ground, as I tried to stand up, he pushed me again and when I was looking up, I could hear and feel a smack right against my left cheek. Being shock about the slap and pain I felt, he started shaking my body, yelling with all worst curses he ever spit out, all over so much that I couldn’t remember, only her name, Hinata. I had never seen him like this, he seemed so devastated, so heartbroken, and I thought I was his beloved. I kept hearing his scream, why it has to be me instead of her. Why I were in his way and most o all why I was not part of Hyuuga Clan, as he began torn off my silk dress, my beautiful dress and button off his flies as he reach a top of me. When I felt my panties pulling off, I know I should have fought back, but the shock was still around me as I suddenly felt the pain between my legs. Neji kept trusting harder and faster, while I bite my lips for not screaming, but plead him with sad eyes to stop, but he never seemed to hear me and as soon as he suddenly stopped by coming inside of me. He just stood up, button on his flies and walked away, while I still lie on the ground, bleeding, and whimpering over this nightmare.
End of Flashback

“Tenten please...” Lee was about saying something, but in the end, he couldn’t. Tenten told everything about this past, the betrayal, false hope, pain… She stood up from the bench as she looked at him with scowl in her face, with no more word left; she walked away, not looking back. Lee was however sobbing hard, first for a long time, he never felt as hurt as in childhood, when he was nothing in Shinobi’s eyes. First by Neji as a friend and teammate, then Sakura, his crush who could never love him at all and now Tenten, who simply lost her hope and now all three in former team Gai was vanished for good.
