A new voice cried out, “I'm sure I heard her scream from this way, Shino.”

Original Chapter by AkaB

Hinata took a deep breath as she steeled herself. She could do this! The moment Sakura stepped out of her view, her eyes glanced down into the water to her left. With Naruto too occupied by the pinkette's pussy flash, Hinata had the perfect opportunity to look at his cock without him noticing.

Her body trembled slightly as her eyes drank in the sight of Naruto's erect penis bobbing slightly underneath the clear spring water. The flush on her face deepened as she memorized the shape and size of his penis. Several times she felt herself growing faint, but instead of succumbing like she normally would, she would dig her fingertips into her soft thigh each time, the pain rousing her and allowing her to take another look.

Naruto was oblivious to the stares, too busy perving on Sakura to notice that Hinata was perving on him.

Hinata blinked as Sakura gently elbowed her in the side.

“You've been looking at his lap for a minute,” the pink-haired girl whispered. “Even he will notice if you keep going.”

Hinata ducked her head in embarrassment about being called out on staring at Naruto's cock. After a few moments, her eyes widened as she realized that she had gone a whole minute, maybe more, of looking straight at her crush's erect penis and she hadn't fainted so much as once!

The quiet girl basked in the sense of accomplishment at emerging victorious, for once, in the battle against her crippling shyness. She wasn't sure who to thank for the surge of courage that had allowed her to do it – was it the presence of Naruto or Sakura that inspired her to overcome her weakness? Maybe it was both?

Sakura looked at the girl next to her in amusement. 'Well, I guess if they can stare at me, then she should be allowed to stare back.'

The quiet was interrupted as a new and recognizable voice cried out, “I'm sure I heard her scream from somewhere over this way, Shino.”

'...Nooooo! Just... fucking... no!' Inner Sakura growled. 'This can't be happening! It's bullshit! How could every single boy from our class except for Sasuke find us here? Who did we kill in a previous life to deserve this!? Wait, we're ninja... who didn't we kill that we should have killed in a previous life to deserve this?'

Sakura's emotional control showed one of its largest breaches for the day as her nostrils flared from taking a deep, calming breath. Above all else, a ninja endured. And she would endure this day no matter how many boys were thrown at her naked body.

Hinata wasn't faring too well either as she watched as two figures walking up to the spring. Kiba and Shino. The two people that she worked with day-in, day-out. Who she'd see tomorrow, and know that they'd seen her in a towel. Who...

Her eyes squinted as she made out the two boys through the mist wafting off the spring.

...who were naked.

Hinata was quite proud of the fact that she didn't faint at that moment. She'd progressed so far today!

“There you are!” Kiba growled, pointing at Naruto as he strode forward, his limp penis (smallest she'd seen so far, Sakura's analytical mind noted, but maybe he was a grower rather than a shower) flopping about from his forceful steps. “You perverted bastard!”

Naruto blinked. “Huh?”

“He called you a pervert,” Shino added as he walked forward (thinner penis than even Shikamaru, but around equal in length, Sakura added to her catalogue). Despite his nudity, he still wore his sunglasses, which were fogging up in the moist air around the spring. “Why? Because you tricked someone as innocent as Hinata into joining you in the mixed baths.”

“Yeah!” Kiba interjected. “My sister saw you entering the baths at the same time as her! I'll kill you for this! You and-” He paused, blinking, as he realized that there were a lot more people in the spring than he expected. “You and most of the guys from our year? What kind of perverted game are you all playing here!?”

“Leave me out of it,” Shikamaru groaned as he laid his head back against the spring edge and looked up at the clouds.

'Well,' Inner Sakura noted, 'on the plus side they might give us an excuse to end this day if they get Hinata out of here. Way to go, dog boy!'

“Hey guys,” Choji greeted, waving. “This is all totally innocent, by the way. Really!”

“I find that hard to believe,” Shino noted. “Why? Because you've all got clearly visible erections.”

“Yeah, every one of you guys except for the pink-haired boy,” Kiba added.

'Pink-haired boy?' Outer Sakura questioned. 'Boy!?'

'Kill him! Kill him until he's dead!' Inner Sakura screamed.

For once today, Sakura didn't stamp her emotions deep down inside her as she let her anger control her. “Who are you calling a boy, you mutt!?” She yelled as she stepped forward, raising her right leg and slammed it down on the spring edge, elevating it, before she reached down and pointed at her exposed vulva. “Do these look like they belong on a boy? Idiot!”

“Sakura?” Kiba blinked. “Huh. I thought you'd be way too prudish to ever share a bath with these guys. I would have totally lost if that had been a bet. Then again, I guess it's not like you've got anything to show.”

“Well excuse me for still having years to grow into my body!” Sakura growled. “By the looks of it, your package isn't anything to right home about either! Besides, I have enough to probably account for four erections here. I don't think I'm doing too badly.”

“Four?” Kiba tilted his head in confusion. “What, can't you count? Naruto, Choji and Shikamaru only make three.” There was a second's pause before realization dawned on him. “Shino!” he shouted as he turned to his companion, who was shielding his groin with his hands.

“I could not help it,” Shino said apologetically. “Why? Because her pink pubic hair is a very exotic color and like nothing I've seen before.”

“P-please don't fight!” Hinata said as she gathered her courage to be the center of attention. With the naked Sakura proudly displaying her womanhood nearby, somehow it didn't feel as embarrassing in comparison to have everyone's eyes turn to look at her barely-covered body. “N-Naruto did not invite me. S-Sakura did. A-and I... I...” She screwed her eyes shut as she admitted, “I'm glad she did!”

“What!?” Kiba asked in disbelief. “Why would you be glad that you're sitting there on display for all of these guys?”

“I-it's not like that!” Hinata protested. “S-Sure, maybe we're at the age where this kind of thing is awkward. B-but twenty minutes ago I would have fainted at the sight of your... your things. J-just by relaxing in the hot water with everyone here, I feel like I've grown braver. S-Sakura knew what mixed bathing could do and she was right to invite me.”

Kiba looked over at Shino, who tilted his head. Apparently that was enough of a signal for the feral boy, who growled, before spitting out, “Fine. But we're staying. I'm sure none of you guys will mind if it's all just innocent bathing, right?”

'I mind!' Inner Sakura shouted, but was ignored since only Outer Sakura could hear her.

“I don't see why we should let you in when you've accused me of... whatever the hell it is you were going on about!” Naruto protested.

Shikamaru sighed. “This argument's getting old. Can we just agree to disagree and go back to the peace and quiet?”

After a few seconds of intense glaring between Naruto and Kiba, Shino sighed and decided to be the bigger man. “Fine.”

Without his teammate to support him, Kiba gave one last glare to the blond boy before also growling out, “Fine.”

Sakura blinked as the two boys headed towards the spring. Not surprisingly, they aimed for the small gap in between Hinata and Naruto.

'There is no way both of them are going to fit in the space left unless we all squish up against each other,' Inner warned. 'And that means either rubbing thighs with Shikamaru, or someone would have to sit on someone else's lap.'

'None of the boys would ever agree to sit on another boy's lap,' Sakura thought back. 'And I don't think Hinata would remain conscious if she had to sit on a naked boy's lap. So I'd have to do it. And be even more exposed to everyone. Of course.'

'You could sit on Hinata,' Inner replied. 'Not sure how she'd take it, though.'

Sakura resisted the urge to sigh. All the options sucked in their own way. She couldn't wait for this day to end. In the meantime, she reached her decision.
