Chapter 7: The Dinner!
"Mooom! Where did you put my dress? I can't find it! Mooom...?"
"Oh, yes, honey it's in the top cabinet on the left, toward the back, hanging next to the black dress you wore for the Hokage's funeral."
"uh...ok...thanks Mom!" Ten Ten shouted down the stairs. Ten Ten pushed aside all the clothing in her way, and snatched the dress from the hanger. She stumbled as she tried to put her bra and her dress on at the same time.
"Woah!" She tripped and fell, landing face down on her bed. "Ug.." she groaned and pushed herself up. "Stupid dress..." she muttered under her breath.
She put on her bra, then slipped on her dress. "I'm SO returning this after this dinner..."
Suddenly she felt self concious. She looked down and thought, Oh god...are my boobs too big...? Do I look fat in this dress? Do I look okay!
She shook her head to clear her thoughts and dusted some blush on her cheeks. Then she put on some clear lip gloss and looked at herself in the mirror again. She sighed.
"This is as good as it gets i guess..." She whispered to herself as she put on her Amethyst and pearl dangly earrings, then she picked up her shoes and began to walk downstairs. Before she was halfway down, a bright light exploded. She blinked her eyes to get rid of the light spots that she was seeing and saw her parents shanding at the foot of the stairs smiling so hard she thought their faces would crack.
"Oh Honey! You look so beautiful!" Her mom gushed. "Wait...Are you wearing MAKEUP! Oh my gosh honey!"
"Ok...Mom, stop hyperventilating! This is the ONLY time in my life that I'm gonna wear makeup, AND a dress! Am I being clear?"
"Crystal." Her mom gave her a thumbs up.
She grabbed her purse and put on her shoes. "Wish me luck guys!"
"You'll do fine honey! Don't worry about it!" He mom blew her air kisses. As an after thought she added, "And wait for AFTER the wedding to do "things"..."
"ug...mooom!" Ten Ten smiled in spite of herself.
On the way to the Hyuuga estate:
Ten Ten hated her shoes. Her feet were sore and her purse felt heavy.
I knew I shouldn't have put so many weapons in here...She solely regretted that. She unstrapped the weapons from her leg and tossed them up in the air and caught them over and over again. Suddenly she heard a rustling in the bushes near the road. She immediatly snapped her attention toward that direction, and took a Kunai out of her purse.
As she crept closer to she bushes she saw a shadow crouched in the bushes but she pretended not to see him, so she turned around and pretended to scan the area. Suddenly she felt a hand squeezing her butt.
"NANI!" She screamed and spun around to see the frog hermit looking at her sheepishly. "BAKA, BAKA, BAKA!" she yelled as she pounded him on the head with her fist.
"Im sorry! Your butt just looked so cute that i had to touch it... I've been following you around for days, but i could never get you alone..."
"..." Ten Ten sweatdropped. "Oh...god! I'm late! I'll deal with you later..." Ten Ten threw him a glare and rushed away.
Hyuuga Estate Gates:
Ten Ten presses the doorbell and adjusted her sash and her wrap. She hear footsteps coming closer and inhaled deeply. It was Hinata who answered the door. She looked very cute in her yellow dress that had sunflowers on it and it looked very expensive. There was also a sunflower in her hair.
"Who is it!" Hanabi came up behind Hinata and tried to look over her sister's soulder. She was wearing almost the exact same dress as Hinata, execpt her's was light blue.
"You look very pretty today, Ten-chan." Hinata bowed.
"Ten-chan? Is that who Neji-niisan is marrying? HER?" Hanabi screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Hanabi, stop yelling please. You'll disrupt the adults." Hinata gently quieted her sister.
"What? I think she's very pretty. Neji-niisan made a good choice!" Hanabi was still excited.
Ten Ten sweatdropped. "It was an arranged marraige..."
"Oh..." Hanabi sweatdropped too.
"Come in! Come in!" Hinata opened the door wider to let her in.
Ten Ten was greeted with the warm smell of cooking food. Hinata took her purse and almost fell.
"Oi...whats in here..?"
"Weapons...Heh.." Ten Ten smiled.
"..." Hinata didn't question her farther and took her lavender sash wrap too.
Ten Ten followed Hinata and Hanabi into the main dining hall and there were already many people seated at the massive table that stretched across the entire room. I mean it was HUGE! Ten Ten gulped and walked down the stairs with Hinata. As she walked past them, everyone fixed their white eyes on her scrutinizing her every move. Now she felt really nervous. Ten Ten just smilied and waved at them all sheepishly. When Hinata stopped walking Ten Ten almost collided with her.
"Why are we stopping?" Ten Ten looked around and noticed they were almost at the head of the table. Hinata motioned to a seat. "Oh..." Ten Ten pulled the seat out and sat down. She felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Neji. He kissed her on the cheek and sat down next to her.
"How come there are so many poeple here?" Ten Ten whispered into Neji's ear.
"On these occasions, both the Main house and the Branch house come together."
"Oh...Okay...Well, these people are making me kind of nervous..."
"haha.." Neji laughed lightly. "Don't worry, they don't bite...useally..."
Ten Ten's creamy complexion turned pasty white.
"I think I need to puke..." She said. Neji handed her a glass of water, and she drank half of it, then felt much better.
"Arigato, Neji"
"No problem." Ten Ten held Neji's hand tighter and smiled.
Hiashi clapped his hands and everyone turned their attention to the head of the table. Hinata and Hanabi sat on either side of him.
"Today we gather here to celebrate the engagement of Neji Hyuuga and Ten Ten (sorry, I dont know her last name. If someone knows can they please tell me?)." Hiashi's voice rang through the hall loudly. "We are proud to say that our ver own Neji will soon have his own family." Hiashi gestured toward the couple and Ten Ten blushed at the thought of starting her own family.
The whole room exploded with applause and everyone rushed over to congratulate the couple.
"Hey Neji, Some gal you got there. Mind if i give it a go with her?" One of Neji's cousins nudged his shoulder. Neji opened his mouth to protest, but Ten Ten was already telling him off for not treating her "with respect".
"Woah there babe. You don't want to hurt your pretty self do ya?"
"On the contrary Baka, how do you know that I care? I happen to be the Weapons Master in the ANBU. You don't wanna mess with me." Ten Ten growled.
"Ten-chan...calm down..." Hinata laid a gentle hand on her shoulder.
Hiashi got up from his seat to see what all the ruckus was about. Ten Ten immediatly stopped yelling and bowed to him.
"I'm sorry Hiashi-sama. This boy here was saying..." Ten Ten trailed off when she saw Hiashi giving the cousin a hard glare.
"Haku, I'm very disappointed in you. That is no way to treat a lady, and future family member. You are to train 4 extra hours tomorrow."
"But Hiashi-sama...I already have to train 10 hours tomorrow!"
Haishi hesitated then said, "Well, than i forbid you to come to the Festival of lights celebration the day after tomorrow.
"Fair enough..." Haku sighed. "Oh..." He added, "I'm sorry Ten-chan."
Ten Ten nodded and said "It's okay."
Then they heard a ruckus from the door way. Ten Ten, Neji, and Hiashi pushed through the crowd to get a better look. A strange man, dressed completely in black held an unconcious Hinata in his arms and ran out of the door!
