"Speech" Thoughts (A/N)

Me, Team 7, A Bridge and a Fattened Shoe

This story is based off of a dream I had the other night...it's a bit strange...It's a one-shot.

Me, Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura and Kakashi slowly came to a stop at the bridge. This is irritating, I thought. It was one of those bridges that go up in the middle to let the boats through.

"Whoa!" Kakashi said as he jerked the steering wheel over to the left. He had almost driven onto the other bridge, which would have been bad, considering it was missing a section in the middle. I wondered what it would be like to suddenly find your-self driving off of a bridge and falling into the water {1}.

"That was close," he said, glancing back at me, Sasuke and Naruto crammed into the back seat of the car.

"I'll say," Sasuke breathed. Kakashi drummed his fingers on the steering wheel, waiting for the bridge to lower and traffic to start moving. (Note that in the dream I didn't see any boat).

"Hey!" Naruto said from beside me (naturally, I was in the middle), "We should walk across! That would be fun!"

Kakashi nodded in approval, and we tumbled out of the car. We all ran shouting happily to one another as we stepped on the moving sidewalk that ran across the bridge that was now inside.

Once we reached the other side, we decided that we had had so much fun, that we should go back and do it again! So this time we frolicked (yes, Sasuke frolicked too) back across the bridge (that still hadn't gone down yet).

Other people had exited their cars also. Some were sitting on the hood of their vans (A/N: don't ask me how you would sit on the hood of a van...blame my twisted mind) holding each other, while others danced around to the music they had turned up in their cars.

We checked back in with Kakashi, who was still waiting impatiently for traffic to get going, then went skipping back toward the bridge (that was, once more, inside). Once again we were goofing around on the moving sidewalk, when GASP! my shoe came off! We had reached the other end, and the sidewalk was already carrying my shoe away. Suddenly, Sasuke bravely sprung onto the sidewalk again in pursuit of my shoe. We walked over to the car to wait for Sasuke to return from his heroic rescue of my shoe (Don't ask me how, but we ended up on the other side of the bridge).

Sasuke returned and handed me my shoe. Never mind that it was now flat as a pancake. I pondered this thoughtfully. It felt like that sheet foam that sometimes is used to wrap up a fragile thing in a package. I shook it open. Not much improvement.

At that moment, traffic decided to get going, and we piled into the car again, and went back across the bridge.

{1} Not too long ago, I had a dream that my mom and I were in a car, and she was driving across a really narrow bridge without railings. I told her to be careful, but she drove up off the edge. However, we floated like a feather, literally, and then landed in the water. What is it with me and weird dreams involving bridges?!?!?!?

Well, easily the strangest thing I have ever written, yet I wrote it directly from my weird and twisted dreams. Oh well.
