Chapter 1: Face the Facts

Tenten looked bored as she sat there listening to her friends babble on about things she could care less about. They steadily talked about love, and who they slept with lately, who they plan to sleep with later on in their lives, and who they wouldn't mind sleeping with. All of it was useless to the less then interested Tenten, who was falling asleep on her lunch break, something she has been doing a lot ever since Hinata found someone interesting in her life.

"Now girls, when I say this man is wilder than ever that's being judged on how much he rocked my world and my bed." Ino giggled. The others, Sakura, Hinata and Temari laughed along with their friend as they sat there listening to the latest relationship news brought to the by Ino herself. Among all of the girls in the group, Ino was the most popular when it came to looks. Though she had a very high-class job, she still managed to appear sexy and job appropriate at the same time, something the others couldn't do as well. She was the CEO of her job and she ruled as that with an iron fist, yet at the same time, she was graceful with her motives, her work and her progress. She was loved by many because of this and recognized as the model of the business world.

Sakura was the complete opposite of her childhood friend. She was a very clever worker, with confidence radiating off of her like a light bulb. She was a very generous person with good intensions, but she has a very short temper and tends to be very moody at times. Her impatience and her short fuse is probably what caused her to not get a better job than Ino.

Hinata on the other hand was too different compared to the others. She, unlike everyone else, had a very shy attitude, so mostly everyone thought she wouldn't last in the real world, but, to their surprise, she owns her own company. It mainly came from her intellect and family linage as well. Though the company was inherited by her from her father the previous owner, Hinata still shows her shine as one of the Japans richest women. Her whole "Plan before Play" motto is probably what got her this far in t= business, along with her perseverance.

Temari could be considered Tenten herself, just with a smidge of girly-girl added to her. She was considered a leader under all others, maybe that's why she was chosen as the boss of one of the world's leading companies? But even so, Temari was always there for her friends. Just like Sakura, Temari had a rather short fuse, and just like Ino, Temari was infatuated with herself and thought that all others should be as well. With that said, she tends to act a bit too bossy.

Tenten was the only other one that wasn't big in the lime life like her friends. Instead of working as the boss or the leader or even the owner, she worked as the employee, but of a big corporation that paid pretty well. Her friends tended to blame this outcome on her friendliness and sympathy. Because of her being an easy target, what with the overly imaginative mind and easily influenced thoughts, she tends to get carried away from her main motive, and that's how she managed to get a lower job than the others. Even so, she was an excellent friend who the others trusted 100%, but not even her friendliness could handle the mushy gushy conversation her friends were having without he concern.

"Tenten," Sakura finally cooed, lowering the level of the conversation to a more serious one, "when are you going to get yourself a decent man to give it up to?"

"As soon as I find one that can live up to my expectations."

"Aw come on, Ten! There are hardly any men that can meet your expectations, at least any good looking ones. How about you just find one, get laid, then call it a day with that one and find you another." Ino played.

"No! I refuse to be labeled as some kind of whore who's easy to lie down. I want someone that can take care of me and satisfy my needs. I want a real man, Ino."

"Then you might as well give up." Temari laughed. Tenten glared at her then at the other two who dared to laugh at her tastes.

"Face it Tenten, at the rate you're going, you won't get a good one till you start seeing spider webs down there." Sakura joked. The other laughed along, but Tenten found no humor in her friends jokes and could feel tears swell up at the corners of her eyes, but she held them back and took what they were saying head on.

"I don't see anything wrong with wanting an independent guy around."

"Nothing's wrong with that it's just that you want way too much in those said independent guys. I mean, you want them to be independent and for them to understand that you too are independent but you also want them to take care of you and know every little detail about you, and to not get carried away with the lime life. Tenten as far as I'm concerned, there are hardly any guys out there that fit those standards. You want too much from them and because of that no guy is going to want to deal with you, sweetie, no matter how cute you may be." Temari added.

Tenten looked at here with defeat in her eyes. Temari knew her all too well, and then again, the others did as well. They knew that no matter how angered she gets at one of them, she still wouldn't blame the whole thing on that one person, she would take most the blame on herself then try to deal with it alone, only to over think the outcome and hurt herself to the point past no return. "Fine," She groaned, "what do you suggest I do then, since you guys know all too well about the theories of dating."

"I know." Hinata chimed. "My father and I are throwing a party this weekend. All of the big names in business will be there for sure, and he said I can invite some friends if I liked so how about I invite all of you. I'm sure you'll find someone there that interests you, Tenten."

"That's a good idea." Ino added. "And look at it like this. If she doesn't, at least we know we will." The others laughed at her, all but Tenten who was getting annoyed of the scenery she was seeing too much lately.

"Fine! I'll go, and when I do manage to find one, I'll be proving to you guys once and for all, that my type of guy does exist, even if he only exists for me."

"Couldn't help but notice that you said 'manage to find one'." Ino pointed out as she sipped her tea. Sakura and the others giggled lightly and did the same before looking up at their rather flustered friend.

"You know what I meant!" Tenten yelled before standing up. "I have to go I have a job to attend."

"You'll be at the party wont you?" Hinata asked.

"Hai hai." Tenten sighed as she walked out leaving her sex obsessed friends behind.
