Disclaimer: Well what do you expect from a girl like me? I don't even own the select lyrics.

A/N: Hey guys! Sorry for not writing for so long… I had to study for these tests… and aside from that I didn't have any inspiration. My friend Miyoru-chan was requesting for a ShikaTema (actually "Once Upon a Time" is ShikaTema but it ends with InoShika—ShikaTema fans please don't kill me!) so this my story for you! Yeah… Unfortunately it goes along the same lines as "Once Upon a Time"… I said don't kill me! Read the whole thing first please.

Uh… so this story is based on an entry I wrote in my diary. So basically it's based on real life. Yeah.

Okay I'll stop now.

'I'm studying for this test but I can't seem to concentrate. The radio is playing on the bench beside me and every song that's played makes me think of you.'

Show me what it's like

To be the last one standing

Teach me wrong from right I'll show you what I can be

Sing for me, sing to me

And I'll leave this life behind me

Sing to save me…

-Saving Me, Nickleback

'But the more I think of you, the more my heart gets crushed.

I'm not the one your heart beats for…'

If only you could hear me Shout your name

If only you could feel

My love again

The stars in the sky

Will never be the same…

If only you were here…

-Stars, Calla Lily

'You told me long ago your feelings for her, and sought my help to win her heart. I hid my feelings and said I liked someone else too.

I regret not having told you then… This burden that I'm carrying makes my life so hard…'

And I'm so sick of love songs

So tired of tears

So done with wishing

She was still here

Said I'm so sick of love songs

So sad and slow

So why can't I turn off the radio?

-So Sick, Neo

'That was so long ago but until now I can't seem to let you go. Maybe it's because I got so used to having my feelings returned to me that I forgot what it feels to have my heart broken…'

I'm not usually the one hanging up

I used to hate to see you go

This time it's different

I don't even feel the distance

I'm not missing,

I'm not missing you…

-I'm Not Missing You, Stacey Orico

'I wish I could say that I wasn't missing you, that I had moved on a long time ago.

But I can't.

I hope you'll be happy with her, if she does decide to return your feelings. But if she will break your heart, like what you did to me, just remember that I'll always be right here for you.'

I wish I could fly

I know I can save us somehow

You thought you were save and sound

But you need a hero now

You gotta believe

Even with broken wings

I'll come to your rescue and

You can rescue me…

-Rescue Me, American High Five

'Maybe one day I'll tell you what I really feel for you. But for now I'll just treasure the friendship that has grown between us.'

"Temari…"

She shut her notebook hurriedly. "Yeah? What's up?"

He smiled at her. "Nothing. Just wanted to say thanks for everything."

He kissed her lightly on the cheek and walked away.

She sat there stunned, for a whole minute. The only sounds that could be heard were the lyrics of the songs on the radio. After a while she reopened her journal.

'But maybe, I still have a chance.'
