500themes, #154 - Unfinished tale.
Tenten was always a little different from the other females in her age group. She had never placed much stock in romance and relationships, choosing instead to focus on her training. She had a goal, and she was still young. She wanted to be known as one of the strongest kunoichi, like Tsunade-sama.
Relationships could come later.
She had time.
But as she stood there, flowers in hand, staring down at the grave she visited every night, Tenten couldn't help but remember the times when she and Neji shared a smile full of promises.
One day, she had always thought.
Some day, she had imagined.
And it was so easy to picture the two of them together.
But relationships could come later.
She had time.
Tenten wondered how she could have gotten it so wrong.

A/N: I'm still in shock, OMG. ;_; I can't even be considered a Neji/Tenten shipper, but I feel so bad for the hardcore shippers. I hacked this out in something like 5 minutes... and probably a bit telling, considering this is the first completely new drabbly thing I've written in ages (as opposed to posting old stuff I've been digging out). The power of feels, I guess. :P
