-Gaara-
I looked around the club that had been given to us for the night and couldn't help but smirk at how it had turned out. Saya had really outdone herself.
"Did you see them on your way here?"
Sakura asked me as I came walked through the door. I simply shook my head and she sighed.
"It's six fifty-four, where are they?"
She asked and I shrugged before going over to where Saya said I should be when they bring Naruto in. We waited a few more mintues and it was going on six fifty-nine when I got a text. I pulled out my phone and saw it was from Saya.
'Sorry we're running late babe, Naruto freaked out when I put a blindfold on him.'
I shook my head at her. Of course that idiot would freak out when she tried to put a blindfold on him, what did she think? He'd just sit there and let her do it?
'We're pulling into the parking lot right now. Get ready.'
I didn't even bother replying and put my phone back in my pocket. I looked up to see the others looking at me expectantly.
"They're on their way in."
I said simply and they all scrambled to their places. I heard the door to the club open and moved further behind the table I was knelt down next to.
-Saya-
"Can I please take the blindfold off?"
Naruto asked for the millionth time and I groaned as I sped down the street towards the club.
"No dammit, now shut up."
I snapped. Naruto was annoying me. I'd gone through all the trouble of setting up a surprise party for him, got the others to help, and even let him be all alone with Hinata for the past two days, and all he wants to do is bitch about a blindfold.
"But I can't see."
He whined and I turned into the parking lot of the club a little sharper than was necessary. I texted Gaara to tell him what was going on before slamming on the brakes and parking the car. I turned around in my seat and glared at Naruto.
"That's the point of a blindfold you idiot."
I said and sighed as I realized I was being mean to the birthday boy. I ran a hand through my hair before getting out of the car, Hinata and Naruto following.
"Come on Naruto, just follow me."
I said as I took his sleeve and pulled him towards the club. Hinata had her hand on his upper arm to help me guide him. We got through the door of the club and down the stairs.
"Where are we going?"
Naruto asked and I ignored him. No reason to snap at him even more than I already have.
We continued to lead him down until we got to the bottom step and onto the main floor of the underground club. I moved to stand behind him and undid the knot keeping the blindfold together as Hinata moved over towards the lightswitch. I nodded to her and she flipped on the switch just as I pulled the blindfold away from his eyes.
"SURPRISE!"
We all yelled in unison as everyone jumped out of their hiding places.
-Naruto-
One moment I was sitting in the living room with Hinata playing Smash Brothers, and the next thing I know Saya bursts into the room and puts a blindfold over my eyes. Then I'm forced into a car and Saya won't tell me where we're going or let me take the blindfold off. I'm surprised she got Hinata to go along with this. Her and Saya then lead me somewhere, I knew we went down some stairs, but that was it. I asked where we were going, but again, I got no answer. I felt the knot holding the blindfold on loosen and when it was taken away the lights of wherever we were cut on and everyone jumped out of nowhere and yelled 'surprise'.
I blinked in surprise and looked around the room we were in. Streamers and balloons were everywhere as well as food and drinks. When I saw the cake on one of the tables I knew what was going on.
"How did you guys know?"
I asked confused and I saw everyone was looking past me. I turned to see Saya scratching the back of her head awkwardly.
I should have known.
I thought with a smile. I hadn't wanted to say anything because I didn't want them to go through any trouble for me, but it looks like that couldn't be helped either way.
"Thanks guys."
I said and they all smiled at me.
"No problem, now lets get this party going."
Sasuke said and I nodded before walking further into the room and going over to one of the tables.
Everyone ate and danced to the CD player plugged into the speaker system in the club I'd been told had been rented for this occasion. Sasuke tried to shove my face in the cake, but I'd managed to get away only to have Saya shove her piece of cake in my face. I'd said I was gonna get her back and she just laughed it off. I danced with Hinata and couldn't believe how much my friends cared about me. I never would have thought in a million years that they would do something like this for me, but I was glad they had. When the song ended I went to get something to drink. When I noticed the cups of ice on one of the tables I smirked evilly as I thought of a way to get Saya back for earlier.
I looked around and saw her dancing with Gaara. I picked up a few pieces of ice and walked over to them. Gaara noticed me and stepped away from Saya, ending their dance. She looked at him confused before turning to look at me.
"Oh Naruto, what do you need?"
She asked and I almost felt bad for what I was about to do, until I saw a little bit of frosting still in my hair.
"I just wanted to thank you for what you've done."
I said and she looked at me confused until I moved towards her and wrapped my arms around her in a hug.
"You're welcome Naruto, but there's really no reason to-aaah!"
She squealed when I dropped a couple of pieces of ice down the front of her shirt and stepped back.
"I told you I'd get you back for earlier."
I said with a smile and she glared at me before shivering.
"I'm going to get you for this Uzumaki."
She said, but I just laughed at her. But when she growled at me I moved back over towards Hinata where I knew it was safe.
-Saya-
I can't believe that jackass just did that to me, after everything I did for him. I shivered as the ice started to melt and the water ran down the front of my shirt.
"Get it out. Get it out. Get it out. Get it out!"
I shouted and Gaara rolled his eyes at me before walking closer to me and running his hand up my shirt. I shivered, but this time not from the ice. I tried not to blush as I felt his fingers brush across my skin as he reached up and got the ice out of my shirt. I looked up at him to see him smirking down at me and couldn't help but blush now. He removed his hand and before I could even think of something to say his lips descended on mine in a bruising kiss, but I didn't mind. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me, he did the same after he wrapped his arms around my waist. I shivered again at the feel of his cool hands on my waist. Despite his cool body temperature I could feel the heat radiating off of him and wanted to get even closer to him. The sound of someone clearing their throat had us break apart and see Deidara looking at us.
"Yes?"
Gaara asked without removing his arms from around my waist.
"Well, we were just about to have Naruto open his presents, yeah."
He said and Gaara leveled him with a glare.
"Your point?"
He asked and I could hear the annoyance in his voice.
"Well, Saya said she wanted him to open her present first, yeah."
He said and I sighed as I remembered saying that.
"Alright."
I said and he turned and walked back over to the others. I looked up at Gaara and pecked him on the lips lightly before stepping out of his arms.
"Come on, this is suppose to be Naruto's day."
I said and heard him groan in annoyance, but that only made me smile at him as I led him over to the others. Hinata forced Naruto to sit down in a chair and everyone gathered around him.
"Okay, your first gift is from me."
I said as Gaara and I reached them.
"Really? Is it going to kill me?"
He asked and I smiled at him.
"No."
I said and I heard him sigh in relief. I rolled my eyes at him before nodding to Itachi who moved and opened the back door of the club to reveal a truck outside with the door open to reveal nothing but ramen noodles.
"You got me ramen?"
Naruto asked in shock.
"A lifetime supply of ramen."
I corrected him and he did a really loud squeal-like thing before he jumped up and hugged me before starting to run towards the truck.
"Hold it ramen boy."
I said as I grabbed the back of his shirt and pulled him back to his seat. He pouted and his eyes watered as he looked at the ramen with a longing look in his eyes.
"Oh calm down, it'll be there when we're done."
I said and he continued to frown, but looked away from the ramen. When he did Itachi closed the door again.
"Okay, now for the rest of your presents."
I said and everyone else gave him their presents for him. Sakura and Sasuke got him chopsticks from his favorite restaurant, Ichirukas. Neji and TenTen got him a video game he'd wanted. Shikamaru and Temari got him a movie that he'd said reminded him of ramen. Itachi had gotten him a book about ramen. Deidara got him a coloring book with pictures of ramen, you get the point. You'd think he wouldn't like any of the gifts, but no, he was simply exstatic about it all. Hinata's present to him was a kiss which ended with both of them blushing madly. Gaara had given him a phone with the wallpaper of him and Hinata, though the screensaver was of a bowl of ramen.
Finally, it was mine, Sheera, and Star's turn for our final gift. We made our way up to the stage in the corner of the club and I signaled for Sasuke to dim the lights. Sheera used her magic to make orbs of light float about the room and shine on us.
"Alright, the last present for the birthday boy."
I said into the microphone and everyone turned to look at us surprised. I guess they hadn't figured out we'd be the band, though I'd decided instead of playing all night we'd save it for just one song as a present to Naruto.
"Happy Birthday Naruto."
I said to my best friend before nodding to Star and Sheera who started the song we'd agreed on. Sheera was on guitar, Star was on drums, and I had a bass guitar in my hands after I'd set the microphone back on the stand.
"The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is
Here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came"
Sheera used her magic to get the keyboard to start playing the way we needed it to and I continued singing.
"You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky
You fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see
You and me..."
I sang and smiled when I saw Naruto had gotten Hinata to dance with him. I'd chosen this song for them specifically because to be honest, that's exactly how they were. Hinata had loved Naruto for a long time and Naruto eventually started to love her back. I was glad I'd been able to help them get together. I'm sure both of them are glad to have the other in their lives.
"Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time?
Time is slipping away
Away from us so stay
Stay with me I can make you,
Make you glad you came..."
My smile grew when I saw Sasuke and the others pulling their girlfriends out onto the dancefloor to dance. Itachi, Deidara, and Gaara were all standing apart from the dancing couples watching us as we performed. I smiled at Gaara before continuing the song.
"The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is
Here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came..."
I nodded to my sisters and Sheera smirked before making it so that the instruments would continue to play on their own. We jumped off the stage and walked over to our guys. They wrapped their arms around us and we started dancing. I stared up at Gaara with a smile on my face as the CD player picked up where I'd left off. I turned to look at Naruto to see him smiling at Hinata before he leaned down a kissed her.
"Happy birthday Naruto!"
I shouted and he turned to look at me with a small blush on his face before looking away. I giggled at him until Gaara grabbed my chin and made me turn to look at him again. I opened my mouth to say something, but his lips crashed against mine making talking impossible. I smiled into the kiss and wrapped my arms around his neck.
Happy birthday Naruto.
I thought before kissing Gaara back as the song continued.
A/N: Probably not the best ending, but I liked it. Please review. I personally don't feel like doing the arrow anymore, it might come back and it might not, but I do know one thing. I'm out, I gotta go to bed. Love you all, later. I do not own the song that was used here, it belongs to The Wanted, it's Glad You Came.
