"Hinata, wake up! We don't have all day!" Sakura jumped onto her friends' bed, wearing a bikini top and shorts.

"I'm awake!" a laugh came from under the sheets. "Now go: my PJ's somehow slipped off." A pair of lavender eyes glared up at the pink haired girl.

"Hey, don't glare at me! It was TenTen I swear!" She rolled off the bed and hid her face in her arms. "Get some clothes on!"

"I could say the same to you." Hinata sat up, looking for a top.

"If you went outside, you would know why I'm dressed like this: Hell, just look out there!" she giggled.

Pulling on a bra and some panties, Hinata looked out her second-story bedroom window. Another car was in the driveway, and TenTen—dressed the same as Sakura, to no surprise—was talking to Naruto, Sauske, and Lee. All the boys were dressed in trunks and t-shirts. Well, Lee was wearing a sweater. Also wasn't surprising.

She opened the window and waved down to them. "Hey guys! Long time no see!"

Naruto and Lee waved like idiots and whistled when they saw Hinata, and all Sauske did was wave politely. Another thing that wasn't surprising: he was a quiet guy. Plus, if he was like Naruto and Lee, Sakura and Ino would kill her for pulling this stunt.

Shutting the window, she pulled on some shorts and a tank top, obviously not wanting the guys to see more girl skin. She wasn't interested in them, anyway.

"Come on! Grab your stuff and let's go!" Sakura started to whine.

"Oh, relax already. It's right here." She pulled her briefcase from under her bed. "All that time on the floor and you didn't see it." She tsked in mock disappointment.

They went downstairs, carrying their stuff. Sakura's bags were overstuffed and heavy as hell, according to the way she was walking. Hinata was glad she wasn't as girly as her roommates: they always had too much stuff.

As soon as they set their stuff down, Naruto burst through the door.

"!" he practically tackled her to the ground as he tried to hug her. She squealed and crushed his spine in response.

"Good to see you, Naruto." Hinata smiled.

"Urg… hey, Hina…" Something cracked and he went limp.

"Oops…" Sakura sat him on the floor, trying to wake him up.

TenTen ran in, followed by Lee and Sauske.

"Come on, we have to start driving!" TenTen was always hyperactive, so she was jumping on the spot.

Naruto sat up, acting as if nothing just happened. "Yeah! Come on guys! Let's start summer!" He ran out with TenTen.

After they packed up the separate cars, and Ino and Sakura were forced to stop flirting with Sauske, they finally started their long-awaited vacation.

Two full months at the beach


"Can we get something to eat?" Ino was sprawled across the front seat, her foot out the window.

"In a few minutes." Sakura patted her head and kept driving.

"But I'm huunnnnggrrryyyy!" The blond whined.

Hinata dug around in a bag and handed her a granola bar. "We're almost at the cottage. Eat this for now, and when we get there I'll make you something, ok?"

Ino grinned at the bluenette as she took the bar. "Ok!"

When they drove into cottage-country, the other girls started fidgeting in their seats. Summer vacation was the best time to find a guy to flirt with—or for Ino and Sakura, more Sauske time.

Hinata sat quietly, nodding and smiling when TenTen or Ino said that she might find a guy here. A boyfriend, even. After a time she ignored her friends and gazed out the window, her thoughts racing.

The trees parted long enough for her to see the beach. Calm, dark water, just beyond the fine yellow sand. She saw a single person, standing alone. He—or she knew he was a he because he was shirtless and flat-looking—looked only a little taller then her, with fiery red hair and pale skin.

As they kept driving, he disappeared behind the trees.

"What're you looking at?" TenTen leaned over the seat to shove her face into Hinata's.

"Uh, nothing…" she blushed.

"It was something! Was it a guy on the beach?" Her eyes widened with excitement.

"No it wasn't!" her face grew darker; this was going to be bad.

"What's going on back there?" Ino turned around, gnawing on the empty granola wrapper.

"Hinata saw a guy on the beach!" TenTen started bouncing.

"Ohhhhh my GOD! You're blushing! You thought he was cute!" Ino sat up, and turned until her back was to the windshield.

"M…maybe…"

The other girls squealed.

"We aren't even parked and unpacked, but you have a crush already!" they kept squealing.

Yep this is bad, Hinata thought.

"Calm down, guys! Trying to drive!" Sakura sounded pissed. They instantly went quiet: Sakura was dangerous when she was mad.

Hinata looked out the window for the rest of the ride. When they were out and unloading, the guys pulled in, and the girls started to chatter again. TenTen went to Naruto and Lee, Ino and Sakura to Sauske.

"Where you going, Hinata?" Ino talked around the food in her mouth; the food Hinata spent an hour making for everyone.

"Oh…just thought I should go for a walk." She looked out to the beach.

"Want me to go with you?" Naruto hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder.

"Um…no, thanks. I want to be alone for a bit." She escaped his hold, and walked towards the back door.

"Oh! Wait!" She turned to see TenTen run upstairs. When she came down, she was holding Hinata's bandana. "You might see the beach guy again." She whispered.

Smiling, she held her hair back with the light-blue bandana, and gave her friend a hug. "Thanks." She waved and left.
