In the gardens of a lovely house in the residential area of Konoha, were two young women sitting on their yoga mats practicing breathing exercises as part of their daily yoga regime.

The star of the show, a young woman with jade eyes and pastel pink hair, ran towards them and quietly set her yoga mat and started the same breathing exercises. But one could tell from the expression she wore while arriving that she was very excited about something.

"Okay guys, I have to tell you something." She spoke, hands clapping in excitement.

"You're pregnant!" Yamanaka Ino, the woman sitting beside her, declared.

"What?"

"Seriously?" The yoga trainer, also her best friend, looks at her in shock.

"Who's that asshole? We'll go to his house to beat him up and this uptight woman will also help us!" Ino immediately spoke.

"Yeah," The yoga trainer, Temari, huffed. "But I'm not uptight." She added.

"Planning yoga at 6 o'clock in the morning makes you uptight and not a cutie pie." Ino put her hands on her hips and raised an eyebrow.

"Sakura wanted to lose weight and so I'm just helping her." Temari calmly replied with a fake smile.

"That is really really insensitive Temari! We all know that she looked like a pregnant woman from 5th grade, but now she is actually pregnant and you expect her to do all those vulgar positions in such a vulnerable state." Ino added with a pitiful expression and moved her hands to imitate those 'vulgar' positions.

"Guys, I'm not pregnant." Sakura finally declared, capturing their attention. "I just got engaged."

"Congratulations!" Temari smiled widely and the two of them hugged.

"What?" Ino yelled. "Who?"

"Uchiha Sasuke. So you remember I went for the Matsumoto wedding last week."

"Even people like that Shampy Matsumoto are getting married and we're still single. I don't understand..."

"Let her finish." Temari lightly chided the other blonde, for which she got a 'thank you' from Sakura.

"So Sasuke and I, we meet at the party. Our parents introduced us to each other and I thought he might be like one of those boring family friends. But he got a drink for me and as the night progressed, we kept talking and had more drinks. I thought he would forget everything once the wedding ended." The two other women looked at her eagerly for more of the story.

"But then he sent me a follow request. I accepted and then he asked me out for dinner and I swear, he is just so charming and so hot." They all squealed before she continued.

"I just loose the plot when I'm with him. And at dinner, he proposed."

"What?" Ino blurted with a confused expression.

"I know. I I I I I I I don't know what happens to me when I talk to him and I know it's happening too fast but he's just so perfect and..." Sakura trailed off with a charmed expression on her face as she looked at the blondes in front of her.

"I'm really happy for you." Temari held her hand and gave her a soft smile.

"Love marriage? But your parents even monitor your dating apps and now it's a love marriage?" Ino ends with a bewilderment painted all over her face.

"Ino."

"Yeah?"

"Be happy for me." Sakura gave her a pleading smile with her doe eyes.

"I'm happy for you Forehead, but I'm just really really really really shocked!"

"So I'm also allowed to take a week off for a bachelorette or whatever but I want to go somewhere. Limited budget, okay?" Sakura stood up and dusted her hands and motioned the other two to follow her.

"Let's use chits." Ino suggested as she stood up and followed her pink-haired friend.

"Chits?" Temari became confused as she joined them.

"You don't know chits? From where did you find her?" Ino mockingly huffed while Sakura opened the door and entered the house.

"Since our boring school days, whenever we couldn't decide what to eat, where to go for summer vacations..." She found a paper inside a drawer and started cutting it into four parts with a scissors she conveniently found nearby.

"And who found which guy cute first." Ino threw a pen at Temari who caught it.

"And so on, we would solve the problems by picking up chits." The three of them threw themselves on the couch.

"It's so childish." Temari spoke.

"Yeah! Because we were children when we made it!" Ino retorted.

"Alright! So for my bachelorette, I thought of doing the same. Okay, here are your chits. Write on it and I'll call Hinata." Sakura picked up her phone after passing those chits.

"Hello ma'am. I'm from the insurance company." Ino snatched the phone and spoke as soon as the call began.

"Yes?" Hyuga Hinata, their childhood friend who lived abroad, answered from the other line.

"We just wanted to confirm whether after your death, will your money be given to your mother or to your cat?" Temari looked flabbergasted whereas Sakura tried to control her laughter.

"Yeah, but why the sudden query?"

"Because if you ignore the call of your best friend even after 37 missed calls, then it's assumed that you are dead." Ino cheerfully replied.

"Ino?"

"Asshole, I'm engaged." Sakura stole the phone and spoke.

"What?" Hinata blurted. "Oh my god! That's so... I'm so happy. Who's it?"

"I'll tell you everything when we meet for my bachelorette."

"What? Sakura, I..."

"Hinata, you're such a cow. If you ditch this, I'm never gonna speak to you again."

"Okay, I'll be there." Hinata sounded defeated, yet happy.

"So, any suggestions for my bachelorette trip?"

"Hmm... How about a road trip to Suna?" Sakura immediately noted down the suggestion and folded it.

"Okay, we're making chits... and voila!" Sakura had shuffled the four chits and chosen one. "Hinata, you won."

"Sakura, I promise this is going to be an amazing trip." All of them had loved Hinata's idea and Ino had already started making plans.

**********

A week later, Temari was making sure everything necessary was in place and Sakura was stuffing toiletries inside the already bulky suitcase. 

 "Passports?"

"Check."

"Chargers?"

"Check."

"Emergency kit?"

"What?"

"I put medicines ad torches and batteries and..."

"Calm down Temari, nothing is going to happen." Sakura lifted her suitcase and shoved it inside the back of the car before closing it.

"Breathe in. Breathe out and..." While Sakura helped her relax, Temari motioned towards something behind her and a woman with pearly eyes and long ebony hair was standing there.

"AAAAAAHHH!!!!!" The two girls squealed as they hugged each other.

"Sakura, my hands are touching as I hug you. Where is all that fat I used to play with?" Hinata teased as she pinched Sakura's almost non-existent belly fat.

"All thanks to Temari. Temari, this is Hinata. Hinata, Temari." 

"Wow. You really did a miracle." Hinata looked at Temari with a bright smile.

"LET'S GO!!!" Ino yelled as she exited the house in a hurry with her suitcase. The moment she saw Hinata, the two girls screamed and hugged each other.

"Hinata, help me with this. Let's catch up in the car." Ino looked at her heavy suitcase for a second and the two girls hurled the suitcases into the large car.

"Now... LET'S GO LADIES!!!" Ino announced and the four girls were off with Sakura driving.

Hey guys, I'm on vacation and hence, the vacation themed story. This is part 1. Stay tuned for the next parts. Love you..
