Beauty and the Not-So Beastly

Once upon a time, Uchiha Incorporated beat Hyuuga Corporations in a customer satisfaction poll,

much to the anger of Hyuuga Corps' current leader, Hyuuga Hiashi.

"This is UNACCEPTABLE!" the fearless leader bellowed, slamming a stack of papers in front of the 21 year old boy.

Nearby, smirking obnoxiously, leaned his adolescent cousin. She clicked her tongue, eyes narrowing dangerously. "Ah ah ah, someone's in some serious shit."

Hyuuga Neji glanced at his still immature cousin, tapping his fingers quietly on the arm of the chair before turning his attention back towards his uncle. If he wasn't in the presence of the Hyuuga Corps leader, that brat Hanabi would, to put it politely, be eating some serious shit by his hands or some other's.

He smirked at the thought.

Big. Mistake. Hyuuga Hiashi swiveled on his foot, turning towards him with an angry point of his finger.

"Do you think this is funny? I don't see how this could have happened, we are friendly, we are loyal, we are better than those red-eyed …con artists! Hanabi…I just… HANABI!"

With an efficient click of her heels, Hanabi placed herself in front of the table Neji sat at, placing her hands on either side of him with a smirk. He didn't make eye contact with her, instead opting to stare out the huge glass windows on the wall behind her. She rolled her eyes, taking one step to the left to block his line of vision.

"After weeks of studying this problem-o we've got on our hands this month, I've finally figured out what the problem is," she raised her eyebrow at him, waiting for him to take the bait.

They squared off, staring at each other, until finally he gave a small imperceptible shrug.

"What?"

"Uchiha Sasuke, the juicy heir to the Uchiha corporate throne, much like you," Neji almost shivered at her sexual tone when addressing him, her own cousin, "has looks and the logical sense to use that sex appeal to his advantage. You, however, are an ice cube. A block. You could have half these clients in your bed, including the boys, by the end of the meetings and yet, you do not. So they give us bad reviews because you don't have the decency to bat an eyelash, smirk a little, offer to fuck them senseless."

Hiashi made a disapproving noise from behind her.

She rolled her eyes again, standing tall and placing her hands on her hips. "So until you decide to learn how to woo—"

"Woo?"

"— a woman, or at least have basic freaking manners, you will be locked away in the Hyuuga penthouse, forever awaiting true love's kiss... or a fucking miracle, whichever comes first."

Neji stared at her in disbelief, turning towards his uncle. "You can't be serious about this."

No response.

"How is this going to help anything? This is a result of Hanabi, who should still be in middle school playing tag with boys and writing do you like me yes or no notes, watching Beauty and the Beast more times than should be legal in the past week. You can't expect me to go along with this to appease your ten year old."

Hanabi scoffed.

"First of all, I'm 17 dickhead. Secondly, every client that tries to flirt with you, you kick out of your office like an everyday asshole, not even a rich asshole, just an asshole."

Neji scoffed back at her and her volatile language.

"Thirdly, your holier than thou attitude is getting old, it's rude. And condescending. At least Uchiha Sasuke has the common sense to pretend the world isn't complete shit and that he doesn't completely hate his life. This is not so much in the hopes that you fall in love and she pulls the stick out of your ass, but that you learn some manners. And lastly, Beauty and the Beast is the fucking bomb and you need to get laid."

Neji's eyes narrowed dangerously. "I didn't even know you knew a word as long as condescending."

She laughed humorlessly, throwing him the keys to the Hyuuga penthouse. "Enjoy the solitude, asshole."

x-x-

And so, the prince was made to be locked away forever awaiting true love's kiss (Or some fucking manners).

Many girls attempted to woo the Hyuuga heir, but all were turned away by his cold, cold heart.

3 Months Later

Humming, a chocolate brown haired girl clasped the handle of her suitcase as she rolled it across the lobby of the huge complex. She received the diamond studded key to the suite she was to share with the Hyuuga Corps heir, grinning the whole time.

This whole situation was way too surreal, it was ridiculously fortunate. Apparently, the Hyuuga Corporation had decided to try their own version of "Beauty and the Beast" in the hopes that it would soften the heart of it's heir.

The white-eyed girl who had introduced herself as "Hanabi" had said, "This guy is a total dick, like complete douche. You won't even believe. We need you to melt Antartica and hope that you find some semblance of a heart down at the end of that bottomless abyss he calls a soul. He's totally the beast in the movie, it's ridiculous. I don't get how girls could find that asshole attractive."

Apparently, in the past 3 months he had chased away more than his fair share of girls. Tenten had assumed it was his looks, because Hanabi had said that most girls ran at the sight of him. She braced herself for the oncoming confrontation. She wasn't shallow, though, and she most certainly wasn't a beauty.

Opening the door to the penthouse, she came face to face with a shirtless, towel-clad, god.

She hadn't realized that the majority of the girls that "had ran at the sight of him" had ran to him.

Her mouth dropped open. This guy... he was gorgeous. His muscular abs were practically sculpted out of marble, angular features, silky hair, soft lavender eyes. She wondered if it was against the contract if she stripped off all of her clothes and screamed "TAKE ME!" right now.

"They're fucking kidding me," she gaped.

He turned fully towards her, raising an eyebrow in a sexy, beautiful, perfect way.

"Excuse me?"

The deep voice that called out to her practically melted her into a puddle onto the floor.

"This...This is bullshit. You're not a beast, you're freaking hot!" She groaned, dropping her stuff and resisting the urge to pull her hair out. "I knew this was too good to be true! This is some stupid prank show shit, oh ho ho let's tell some poor weapons store worker that she'll get thousands for "woo-ing" the Hyuuga heir, who the fuck says woo-ing anymore-that little shit! That white-eyed shit, she tricked me!"

He took a step towards her, not even attempting to hide the perfection that was his abs.

"Are you okay?"

She pointed an accusing finger at him. "NO I'm not okay! LOOK AT YOU! You're so sexy I feel my clothes disintegrating just at the sight of you! This isn't a funny joke, I need to find the Hyuuga heir. No, better yet, I need to kill that brat Hanabi."

She kept mumbling to herself, grabbing her suitcase. She turned around, though, shrugging. "You're...you're super hot, I mean, if you're into one night stands or something... you know.. call me."

She laughed to herself, muttering something along the lines of "so hot" before walking towards the door.

"Wait, I am the Hyuuga heir."

She stopped, turning slowly towards him with a huge smile spread wide across her face. "Really?"

She narrowed her eyes, as if contemplating. "Really."

He gave a small, curt nod.

She laughed, loud and melodic, gripping her stomach. "Oh, this is going to be so easy!"

He narrowed his eyes. "I am the Hyuuga heir, but you were going to go, so you may continue. The door is open."

Her smile disappeared, eyes narrowed. Asshole. Letting her luggage hit the floor with a loud 'thunk', she smirked. "Maybe not."

The Fearless Princess Tenten decided that she would melt his heart of stone.

And so began our story... of the Beauty and the Beast.

"Although I'm not sure which one I am, cause he's pretty freaking beautiful."
