~ Tenten ~
"Tenten, wake up" Neji said

"Tennie" he once again said

"Tenten, breakfast. I got us some treats" He shook the bag trying to make some noise I moved to the other slide of the bed but the food he had gotten us smelled so good

"Hold on I'm still waking up" I slowly said covering my face so the light didn't hit my eyes

"Okay, we'll I got us some coffee and other stuff to try from the festival. I'll set up everything for us to eat while you wake up" Neji said as he quickly kissed my head 

"Okay" I muttered

I felt so tired, last night Neji drained all my energy. I stretched a bit then I got out of bed. I quickly put on my slippers. Neji had set up the table for us to eat. There was quite a bit of food along with sweet treats. I sit down and wait for him

"Somebody finally woke up" He said

"Not fully awake but I'm awake" I replied with a smile

"Let's eat, I don't want this getting cold" He said as he handed me chopsticks

"Thank you for the food" we both said out loud. We started eating and Neji explained to me what we were going to do today before we left to the land of hot water. We finished having breakfast, Neji cleaned up and I took a shower to finally fully wake up. We wanted to go to the festival again then go on a boat trip.

I changed into a cropped teal top and maroon pants. Neji got ready fast, he wore a similar outfit to the one he always wore but his apron was a dark teal. I did my usual 2 buns and fixed my bangs. Did the lightest makeup ever on myself and cleaned up the room. I looked over at Neji who was fixing his hair, I smiled. I finally was happy, after the war I felt sadness. The trauma messed me up, saying we were going to war was shocking to me, I wasn't fully prepared. I was grateful all of us were okay, I will always miss Guy Sensei and Hinata's father. But I'm grateful to have Neji with me

"Are you ready to go?" He asked

"Yeah, let's get going" I said quickly grabbing a bag

We headed off to the festival. Neji saw a stand where you could throw "kunai's" to win a price so he wanted to go. Neji is super competitive but so was I so when he first threw a kunai he didn't hit the center of the target.

"HA YOU MISSED" I yelled out

"So? I have another try" He said confidently

"Go ahead" I said as I handed him another "kunai"

He grabbed the kunai and threw it once again. This time the kunai didn't stay on the target. It hit the target then fell down. I turned to see a outraged Neji. The look on his face was priceless

"Ah!" He yelled out, he was too stunned to speak

"Haha, watch this" I said as I perfectly threw one of the kunai hitting the middle of the target

"Congrats to the lady what would you like?" The vendor asked

"I'll take the Kurama doll" I jumped up in happiness

"Not another Kurama doll" Neji whined, Hinata had one that Naruto gifted to her. They were limited edition, and I had been wanting one for the longest time ever. After the war many people started appreciating the tailed beasts soo much that they even started making dolls out of them. Naruto sponsored these dolls since after all he was the 9-tails jinchuriki along with Killer Bee. Naruto tried to get me a doll but I ended up giving it Hanabi. Now having the doll in my hands made me feel excited

As the man handed it to me, I hugged the box and I jumped up in happiness

"I wanted to win the doll for you" Neji said
