Sasuke began to unpack the few items he had. The small apartment had a few peices of furniture that were important, but he would have to get food soon or later. Only twenty minutes later Sasuke was done unpacking, he only had four boxes. Sasuke had ran away from Konoha to go to Otogakure, one of the farthest cities from Konoha.

A muffled knock came from the room over. Sasuke got up slowly and walked to the door. He opened it slightly and saw the man who let him stay here for free, Kakashi Hatake. He was an odd man, always wore a mask and had gray hair and was probably only in his mid twenties.

"Can I help you, Kakashi?"

"Yes I was wondering would you like to have dinner with me? Seeing as you need to be showed around and you probably have no money." Kakashi smiled, but you couldn't really tell because of his mask.

"Sure," and that answer would change his entire life around.

Sasuke looked at the resteraunt in front of him. It had rainbows everywhere on the sign and happy mushrooms dancing on the windows.

"What the hell is this Kakashi?" Sasuke was kind of shocked.

"It's a gay resteraunt, duh!"

"And what makes you think I'm gay?! Besides people might think I'm together with you!"

"I feel a gay vibe from you, and they wont. I know the people here and they know I won't go for someone so young," Kakashi said walking inside.

"I'm 18,"

"So? I'm 26," Kakashi gave a big grin.

Kakashi and Sasuke sat at a table talking about the age difference and how Sasuke 'wasn't gay', while unfortunately a singing contest was being placed. The unfortunate part was that no one could sing very well. They ordered some food and waited till their food arrived.

"So why did you come here to the city of Otogakure? Did you have problems with your parents or did you finally decide to move out?" Kakashi asked.

"Well I've loved my best friend since we were five years old, and I've never had to courage to tell him because I was afraid of rejection. He always had a crush on one of our other friends, Sakura. Just a year ago they got together and I finally just gave up because they looked so happy together. Then the last time I saw my friends, which was at a house party, they told us all that they were engaged. I know that I gave up, but I couldn't stand being in the room I felt heart broken. It was like my world had just collapsed and his world was far away shining brightly without me. A few other things happened.. but I would rather not talk about it. So I ended up saying I was going on a ski trip by myself, which is normal for me, and I only took a few things so it wouldn't look like I was leaving for good. That's why I came here."

Flashback

The music blasted, teens were drinking, and some were trying to talk over the music. This was always how every party was when they started winter break and this would be their last all together. This year they were graduating and some would be going off for college next year.

"Everyone!" the party was interrupted by a Uzumaki Naruto. The music was lowered and everyone looked his way. " I would like everyone to know I am now engaged with my girl friend of a year, Sakura. "

There were cheers and congradulations. The few people that new that Sasuke loved Naruto turned and looked at him with the look of saying 'I'm sorry'.

Gaara decided to speak up, " I thought you were gay?"

Naruto bursted out with laughter, "Me, gay? Hah nice one Gaara but I hate gays."

The gay or bisexual people in the room now looked down. This crushed Sasuke, he knew that even if he was engaged that he would never win his love. Sasuke looked at Gaara and Neji ,two of his friends who were in a secret relationship, he showed sorrow in his eyes like he was about to cry. Sasuke finally got the idea through his head a couple of times that Naruto would never love him and ran out of the house.

When Sasuke got to his apartment, he lived alone because Itachi left a long time ago to become a music producer, he packed a few items no one would ever notice that were gone from his house and wrote a note:

I've gone out for a ski trip, and i'm going alone again this year, don't wait for me. I'll be back in a week!

Sasuke

Sasuke took this boxes and his money and got himself a cab to Otogakure.

End Flashback

"Love is a strong word to use.. and HA! I told you that you were gay," Kakashi pointed out.

"Shut up ok? I'm bisexual thank you very much. And yeah, well my love was strong enough break me, and now I'm going to break all of my ties with that place I use to call home. I'll make a new life here, a new identity, and I will never go back there ever again."

"..."

"Hn."

"Hey Sasuke?"

"Yeah?"

"Can you sing?"

"I'm not sure I've never sung before. Why?"

"Because these people in the contest suck! Why don't you go up there?"

"What? No!"

"Here's your food," the waiter said winking at Sasuke. Kakashi told the waiter to come closer and whispered something in his ear, the waiter nodded. "Of course Kakashi," he smiled and with that he left.

"Did you whisper something dirty in his ear?"

"I dont know you'll have to find out," the waiter got on stage and looked towards their table.

"Our next contestant is Sasuke Uchiha."

"Kakashi you didn't!"

"Yes I did. Now go up there," Kakashi got up and pushed Sasuke up to the stage.

Sasuke was nervous he didn't even know the song we was suppose to sing! The music began to play and Sasuke thought he knew the song, well it was worth a try.

kawarihateta mi wo kogashite chigireta karada wo

Once the song ended people clapped, clearly he was the winner. Sasuke was bit embarassed and sat back down at his and Kakashi's table.

"Wow Sasuke your really good. Maybe a new part of your identity should be a singer.. we could probably go find some music producer that would give you a record deal!"

"And I think I might just have that person."
