"I'm glad I did too," she said, managing a smile. Because who knew what would have happened if she hadn't? She'd likely be in worse condition, but how much worse? No, better not to think about that. Hinata was alive and she'd make a full recovery in good time.

"As for Sasuke and Gai... they seem to be coping in their own ways, last I saw. I haven't seen Sasuke since we brought you in, and Gai did say last night that he was going to bring flowers. But I think I saw him on my way here doing laps around the village on his hands." She shrugged and shook her head, her smile growing out of amusement. "That would be his way of doing things though. Always training to be better for the next mission. I gotta say, even if he is a bit weird sometimes, his heart's in the right place. But enough about them, how are you feeling?"

She stepped closer to the bed, but stopped at the foot, where she rested her hands on the frame.
