Hi, this is another story that was starting to bug me, well my mind, so I desited to write it out. Idk how long this is going to go on, but I hope that you enjoyed it! n_n


A BLAST FROM THE PAST


"Now," said a blonde, holding the mic to his lips, "it's time to dance with the person that's your girlfriend or boyfriend, the one that you love, or your bestest friend!" Naruto wore a white button down shirt, black pants, and an orange tie. His jacket was currently getting wrinkled on one of the speakers at the end of the stage. Naruto had been singing for years, but this was the first time someone asked him to perform at the Senior's Prom, let alone, his prom.

"Ok, guys, just like we practiced," he whispered to his band; Gaara on the drums, Sakura on guitar, Lee on bass, Shino on the keyboards, and Kiba back-up singer that also played bass. They were dressed like him, except Sakura of course. The difference was that Gaara wore a red-black tie, Lee and Kiba wore a solid black tie, and Shino wore no tie. Sakura wore a short sleeve red dress that reached to her knees, a headband with a leaf outline on it.

"Hai!" they said over the noise.

"Hit it!" Sakura, Kiba, and Lee started that was slowly joined with Shino.

"Its slow so don't bump into each other," laughed Naruto into the mic, "this is Private Emotion."

Slowly Sakura joined Naruto in front of the stage and sang with him. Unknowingly, there were people watching them from the other end of the giant gym.

Neji, Shikamaru, Sasuke, Hinata, and Karin were in the back of the gym, closest to the doors. Neji, Shikamaru, and Sasuke all wore black suits; Neji wore his white button down shirt untucked, Shikamaru wore a dark green shirt untucked as well, Sasuke wore a dark blue button down shirt, the first two-three buttons open on top, his shirt was tucked in. Hinata wore a long sleeve dress that passed her knees, colored in a light purple with white flowers on the bottom of her dress. Karin wore a long sleeve purple dress that went to her knees with black stockings underneath.

Hinata and Karin were sitting next to each other, talking in each other's ears, then laughing at what the other said. Neji sat next to Shikamaru who sat next to Sasuke who was sitting next to the giggling girls. All of the men's attention was focused on the stage where the people they wanted to be with were playing, playing their last set. Neji's eyes followed each and every movement that Gaara did, Shikamaru watched as his boyfriend was bobbing his head to the beat, the way his hands glided up and down the neck of the bass. Sasuke watched with great interest on Naruto's movements, the way he moved his hips, swaying as if the music had taken over his body, the way his mouth moved as he sang gently into the mic, the way his face looked as if he was singing it to his long-lost lover, Sai.

As the last chord played on the piano, the lights that were on the man-made stage slowly faded. The crowd stopped and cheered, the lights turning back on the whole band stood at the edge of the stage, holding hands, and bowed together. They moved their stuff to make room for the dj, as they got down they dispersed throughout the crowd. Naruto appearing behind Sasuke with a tired but happy look on his face, Shino and Kiba soon appeared with Gaara following with drinks in their hands.

"So? How was it?" Naruto asked breathlessly, his blue eyes seemed to glow in the dark with all the excitement that was filling him.

"Hn, ok to me," said Sasuke as Naruto pulled up a chair from next to them.

"What? You have to be kidding me! 'Ok?' What the hell, Teme!" yelled Naruto whose face was now flushed. You could see steam coming from his ears.

"W-well I-I thought that it was a-amazing, Naruto!" smiled Hinata who was now able to talk to him after four years, and all it took was to get Shino to start going out with her to talk.

With a kiss on Hinata's cheek, Shino sat down next to her, "Amazing, Hina?" he said as he took a long sip from his cup that had punch. "I swear, I thought we did better than how we expected...?" he looked up from his shades to Naruto who was smiling at Hinata for the complement.

"Ha, well I didn't forget the words this time!" laughed Naruto, remembering the first time he played in front of his friends in the garage. He froze then passed out cold on the floor, it was a good thing that there was carpet on that side of the garage.

"True, true!" yelled Kiba who was sitting on Shikamaru's lap for some unknown reason.

"Oh, before I forget!" Naruto looked at Sasuke who was looking at him the whole time, "Teme, can you give me a ride back home? I promised Tsunade that I'd be home right after the show!" Giving his best, he did the puppy eyes and put his hands together as if he was praying.

With a sigh, Sasuke finished his drink, told Karin that he was going to drop off Naruto, who earned a glare from her, and nodded to the door when he looked at Naruto. With a jump he ran after Sasuke, fixing his tie and wrinkled jacket. He waved bye to his friends, and giving back a glare to Karin who was giving him the finger.

Running out the doors he found Sasuke walking down the hall that was barely lit. "Hey, wait up, Teme!" yelled Naruto as he caught up to Sasuke who stopped and turned to him, a smirk on his face.

"Dobe, if you can't keep up you'll have to find another way home." he threatened, his black eyes filled with enjoyment at Naruto's pissed off look.

"Teme, bastard!" he yelled at him.

"Dobe, you're three feet from me, don't yell," with a turn he resumed his speed making Naruto nearly run after him to keep up.

"Hey, I know it's personal-"

"Then don't ask, it's as simple as that." said Sasuke.

"-but did you accepted to the school that you wanted?" asked Naruto, looking at Sasuke with interest.

"You, of all people, should know that each and every Uchiha must go to college and graduate from college, baka!" said Sasuke, pushing the door at the end of the hall. The cold air now at their backs as the heat from outside in their faces, quickly and slightingly dampening their hair.

"I was just wondering," muttered Naruto, Sasuke looked at Naruto and slowed down his high speed to match Naruto. "You're gonna marry her?" his eyes on the tiled ground.

"It's not my intention, Naru," Sasuke sighed, placing his hands behind his back, "it's my father's wish. I can't refuse, even if I wanted to, you know that." He playfully bumped into Naruto's shoulder, making him smile a little.

"Are you sure you're not going to college?" he looked at his best friend with worried eyes.

"Yeah, none of what they're teaching catches my attention," he looked up and smiled with his eyes closed at Sasuke, "singing isn't gonna be a hobby anymore, the bartender said that I could work for him full time, since everyone is going to college but me!" he laughed, rubbing the back of his head.

"Baka," muttered Sasuke before he pulled out his keys.

The next day was the graduation, Sasuke, being the valedictorian, made a speech, in his speech he was mainly talking to Naruto. Hoping that they'll still be friends. After the graduation, when the gang got together, Naruto wasn't with them. Sasuke was looking for him, he was going to ask him if he could be his best man at the wedding. When he did find him, he was on the other side of the street, getting out of his robe and folding it into his bag, got onto the bus, and disappeared. Sasuke went to Naruto's house after he told everyone else, to see that they had moved out that day. Naruto was never heard from again, never seen again, nor did he leave Sasuke's mind, long after everyone else forgot about him. Till five years later, Naruto was on stage with another band, and Sasuke was just looking for something to keep his mind busy.
