Hinata's POV

When I woke up, it was morning. The sunlight was shining into the room. I turned to look at the clock. 10:08 A.M. Everyone was probably up and about already.

Suddenly, I bolted upright. I had slept. What had happened last night for that to happen? And then the memories came back. I had passed out in the hallway from Sasuke making me so uncomfortable. He must've carried me back to my room. I wasn't sure whether I should be thankful or pissed. On one hand, I had gotten the goodnight's sleep that I've been craving for two weeks now. On the other, I had only gotten that sleep because he had caused it.

I decided to push it aside for now and take a shower. We were going to the hot springs today.

"Hinata, are you sure you're up for it?" Sakura asked me with concern as we walked to the hot spring.

"Yes, I'm sure." I shot a slightly venomous look at Sasuke, but he was looking away.

After I had fainted, the boys had rushed out of their room to see Sasuke carrying me back to my room. When he was asked what had happened, he told them that I had just fainted from exuastion. Everyone seemed to buy it, seeing as the proof were the dark circles under my eyes, but I know what really happened. At least I wouldn't have to deal with him today…

"HINATA!!"

I didn't even need to stop and turn around to know it was Anaghia. She joined me at my side. "Happy Birthday!" she said, and hugged me.

"Thanks," I said. That's when I spotted something in her hands. A box. I pulled away from her. "What's that?" I asked, my eyes narrowed.

She looked down at her hands as if she didn't know that the box was there. "Oh, this?" she said holding it up, "Oh, this isn't for you, it's for me. An gift to myself, if you will."

She took the lid off of the box and pulled out a white dress with a purple bow in the back. "Aw damn," Anaghia said, "It's too small for me. Hey, do you want it?" She looked at me with innocent eyes.

"Anaghia!"

"What? It's not a present, it's just something that I can't fit that I'm giving to you, which just happens to be your size, and it just happens to be your birthday." She grinned at me and shoved the dress into my arms (A/N: Heh, I probably would do something like that…)

I sighed in defeat. "Thanks, Anna."

"No problem," she said, "it goes with your eyes better anyway."

"Hey, do you want to come with us to the hot spring?"

"It's okay if I do?"

"The more the merrier!" Naruto yelled back from in front of us.

"I'd love to." Anna smiled warmly.

We reached the hot spring in a matter of minutes. I was eager to head in, but the boys stopped us before we were able to head in. "Hold on a second," Kiba told me. And then he turned to Sakura and Anna. "You two wait here with her."

With Kiba and Akumaru leading the way, Naruto, Shino, and a seemingly reluctant Sasuke, followed. "C'mon!" Naruto was yelling, "Just tell me already!!"

I saw Kiba hit him in the head as they turned the corner, and they were gone.

Sakura gave me a confused look. "What are they doing?" she wondered.

"I have no clue." It was only the half-truth; I knew they were doing something for my birthday, from their conversation yesterday, but I still didn't know what. I was just glad to see that she wasn't in on it.

The three of us just started chatting about what the surprise could be, when they came back. My eyes widened. There was a huge box wrapped in wrapping paper being rolled toward us on a luggage cart.

"Happy Birthday Hinata!" the boys all said in unison--all but one.

I looked at the present with wide eyes, my jaw dropping.

"Go ahead and open it!" Naruto said, "I wanna see what it is too!" He shot a venomous look at Kiba.

I walked forward and started unwrapping my present. When I was done and took the lid off, I peered inside. I couldn't see anything at first, but then I spotted a piece of paper at the bottom. I leaned into the box and stretched as far as I could to grab it. I would have fallen in if Sakura hadn't kept her hold on my shirt.

At last, I grabbed it and she pulled me out. I stumbled a little, then I steadied myself and looked at the piece of paper. It was a ticket.

Anaghia looked over my shoulder. "Oh my God!" she exclaimed, "A Linkin Park ticket! That is so cool!"

"Thanks you guys!" I told them. We came together for a group hug.

"Alright!" Naruto said after we stopped hugging, "It's hot spring time!" He led the way, full speed.

We followed after him, excitedly, through the open doors.
