Chapter 2

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any bands songs


The lights flashed and the crowd roared, he looked out to the crowd and said

"I'm going to dedicate this next song to my girl out there."

I don't want this moment to ever end
Where everything's nothing without you
I'll wait here forever just to, to see you smile
'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you

Through it all, I made my mistakes
I stumble and fall, but I mean these words

I want you to know
With everything I won't let this go, these words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know, 'as I bleed my heart out to show

He stepped down from the stage and put a hand to her face and sang

And I won't let go

Just then thunder boomed and awoken the young blonde from his dreams. Naruto looked over to the alarm clock and sighed

"Stupid thunderstorm waking me up before time on a Friday"

Naruto looked at the clock again and said "eh might as well" he got up looked out the window to see the sky overcome by darkness and many rain droplets crashing into the streets

He sighed again "Maybe dad will let me kick it at home if I play sick"

Naruto put on his best sick face and went downstairs only to find no burning eggs, no cursing, and no dad, all that was there was a letter on the table.

The letter said….

Naruto I have a tour today with the band, I've left you two tickets, just take a friend for once, oh yeah there's breakfast in the fridge , after my tour is over I'll teach you some more techniques alright, I'll be gone for a week so see you

Love Dad,

P.S: Go to school.

"Damn" Naruto said

Naruto went upstairs to get ready adding boots and a leather jacket to his normal attire. He went back down stairs to leave when he remembered there's 'breakfast' in the fridge.

"Yuck, I'm not in the mood to fight off my breakfast this morning, ill just have to get school breakfast."

Forgetting about the surprise in the fridge he grabbed an umbrella and ran through the door.

Opening the umbrella he walked over to his now usual waiting spot the Hyuga compound, ever since he and Hinata found out they lived close to each other they thought since they are friends they can walk to school and hang out like friends.


For the past couple of weeks this was how it was, although Naruto wanted to be more than just friend, he had to know his boundaries and respect Hinata. Just then Hinata ran out of the compound and gave Naruto a warm smile and said

"Hi Naruto"

"Hey Hinata"

She opened the umbrella and they walked for a couple of minutes until one powerful wind blew and Hinata's Umbrella was turned to a wreck, and blew away. (A/N: has that ever happened to anyone, yea it's a bitch)Naruto quickly sheltered Hinata with his umbrella they were real close arm to arm, he had to admit he was kind of glad the wind blew her umbrella to shreds.

"Thank yo-" she couldn't finish because thunder boomed and Hinata quickly grabbed Naruto's Arm tightly.

"Yes" Naruto muttered

"What?" Hinata asked

"Umm I said your welcome" he said with a slight blush

"Oh"

"The reason why I'm so scared is because my mother died on a day like this."

"I'm really sorry about your mother Hinata"

"It's alright"

"No it's not alright" he said he pulled her into a tight hug telling her

"When my mother died I wasn't alright but when I got a hug from some one that I know cares about me it made me feel a little bit better, so from me to you I hope this makes you feel a little bit better knowing that I care about you and your feelings" (A/N: I don't know I tried to throw in one of those Naruto speeches lol)

To say Hinata was speechless was an understatement, and the fact that she was blushing a dark shade of red didn't make it any better


For the rest of walk they walked side by side comfortable with each others company, unknowing to the fact that a Hiashi Hyuga was watching the whole scene unfold before his eyes and plotting on what he should do about it, he turned and walked to his office.

As Naruto and Hinata walked in bliss they met up with Sasuke.

"Well isn't this a cozy scenery" Sasuke said with a smirk

Naruto and Hinata both looked away with a slight blush on their faces

"Just as I thought" Sasuke said again

"Shut the hell up teme!" Naruto turned and yelled to him

"you said something dobe?" Sasuke said ignoring the 'teme' statement, which enraged Naruto more.

"Damn you Sasuke-teme!"

He handed Hinata the Umbrella and lunged at Sasuke, but just like what Naruto did with Kiba Sasuke simply used Naruto's blind rage against him and side step while Naruto fell comically to the ground.

Hinata first cringed at the site but then thought about the past events, she knew not to get involved her friends arguments or 'competitions'

Sasuke had a tinge of remorse for making his friend fall and put a hand out to Naruto this would prove to be his downfall as Naruto grabbed his hand and pulled him to the floor in the same puddle he was in. They both got up all soaked and called it a draw.

Naruto then walked back to Hinata thinking there would be that sweet bliss they were walking in like before…boy was he wrong every time he got close to going under the umbrella he never actually made it under.

"Hinata?" he asked with confusion written all over his face

"Sorry Naruto but your all wet, and I can't get wet" Hinata said with a giggle

Sasuke smirked at what Hinata said and at Naruto's facial expression (A/N: laughing would just be out of character)

"And were suppose to be friends Hinata" Naruto stated with a pouting face.


They made it to school and Sasuke and Naruto split up with Hinata to go to their lockers. Over the same past couple of weeks Sasuke and Naruto has become more brotherly, Naruto's dad just thinks of Sasuke as another son, Naruto and Sasuke are always hanging out, having competitions, arguments, rivalries and those other stuff that brothers do.

"It really sucks that is a Friday and it's raining cats and dogs." Naruto said

"Hn" Sasuke said putting in his headphone for his Zune

"What you listening to?"

"Dragon force, through the fire and flames" he replied

"Cool, he grabbed the other headphone and listen to the professionals at work, they listened until the bell rang and they made their way to their first class, Naruto was kind of looking forward to the day since there was going to be substitutes and no principle for a couple of days.

As Sasuke and Naruto made their way down the hall Sasuke noticed that Naruto was starting to get very popular I mean not as popular as he was but popular, people giving him hand shakes, and saying "Dude" and "What's up" and "How's it going".

Now that he thought about it the blonde is the biggest trouble maker in the school all his pranks were successful. People hardly cared that his father was famous it was just the fact that Naruto was a cool person to be around, sure he's loud and sometimes a little dense but when you get passed all that he's pretty cool.

Sasuke could remember the those pranks like they were yesterday though the first one was to Iruka-sensei he pulled it off by putting soap and water in all the tuba players instruments and cut all of Iruka's Guitar strings.

Another time Kakashi was prepared and tried to catch Naruto with glue in his seat, when Naruto sat down he couldn't move but the same thing went for Kakashi he didn't even know Naruto put glue on his chair, they both looked at each other and Naruto replied

"Heh, heh, great minds think alike huh"

"Naruto!!" Kakashi yelled

The next prank was to both Kakashi and Jiraiya. You could hear Naruto's laugh as they echoed through the Hallways, he photo copied all the pages to make out tactics and spread them through out the school.

And one that really freaked everyone including the prankster was when Naruto wrote a love letter from Kabuto to Orochimaru. It was funny but the fact that the two had no problems or complaints scared the hell out of everyone.

The most recent prank was when he switched Gai's spandex with regular clothing, boy did the flames of youth burn that day, Gai went crazy.


Naruto's classes for the day were pretty normal except the fact of Kakashi, Anko, and Jiraiya not being there since they are on tour with the yellow flash.

When Naruto got outside it was still raining. He stood waiting for Hinata and Sasuke. He thought to himself during the wait, thinking about how he defaced the fifths statue in the front of the school, I'll always have time for fun and games but I better not slip up dad did say "if you want tickets you better keep passing"

Naruto was starting to lose patience till he saw Sasuke and they went about there greeting

"Dobe"

"Teme"

They stood there talking about bands and stuff like that, until there she was Hinata and a whole group of girls Sasuke started to panic until he noticed it was Tenten, Sakura, and Ino. The reason why they were with her was because one there are going to be a sleep over at Hinata's place and two they were kind of curious as to why Hinata has been turning down going to the mall after school.

Everyone walked in an awkward silence, since it's usually Naruto, Hinata, and Sasuke walking home together so Naruto tried to break the silence.

"So anyone saw what I did to the statue of the hokage, hilarious right?"

The three girls looked at him like he was a loser and Hinata giggled upon remembering.

"Talk about something interesting dumbass"

"Listen here teme-"

Sakura cut in "Naruto you're annoying"

Ino added her two cents "Not to mention an immature pervert."

"Ouch"

"Come to think of it you did pull that prank with those perverted novels." Tenten said in a matter of fact way of speaking

"Umm Sakura I heard Lee is trying to find you." Sasuke said changing the subject

"Probably to ask me out again but don't worry Sasuke my heart will always belong to you." She said with hearts in her eyes

"Sorry no interested" he said turning around so no one would see the tinge of pink on his cheeks

"oooh burn!" Naruto yelled

Naruto ended up feeling Sakura's wrath and once again ended up on the wet pavement.


It was now time for everyone to say their goodbyes and they split Naruto told Sasuke to come to his dad's concert with him and Sasuke gave his usual response

"Hn"

"Then it's a yes, Meet me here at 8:00"


Naruto was all set he had on a dark orange hoody with the word Fender in black going across the torso, some dark blue worn fitted jeans, and lastly some dark blue and black Nike dunks. He let his hair hang in the usual messy fashion.

Naruto hoped down stairs grabbed the two tickets and ran to the door as soon as he opened the door Sasuke was sitting on the porch with his zune in his ear, he was wearing a black tee with the Uchiha crest on the back, some dark wash Levis jeans, with black vans that had a big skull on the side, and he also put a nice touch with the black bangles with the spikes he was wearing, he turned around and said to Naruto

"Don't we look very colorful" he said in a mocking tone

"Dammit I was in a good mood to, let's go you teme I'll have a comeback prepared later."

Naruto and Sasuke were talking about starting a band but who were the band members really going to be?

Naruto and Sasuke dismissed the thought and Naruto was just thinking about Hinata while they passed her house.


Hinata and her friends frantically scurried around the room looking for what they were going to were to the Yellow Flash's concert.

Ino was pretty much done because she's real good with fashion. She sat there with here hair in the usual style pony tail and a long bang. She also styled a red and black checkered shirt that that shown off her midriff and a black skirt with socks that came up to her thigh, with red and black checkered vans. She then spoke out to the others

"Maybe since we can't you guys can't think of any thing to wear, we should just were the same format but in different styles, Tenten could were slacks and a long black and a white checkered shirt, and Hinata can wear long checkered skirt with a shirt with some type of design on it, and Sakura three words pink, white, and black there you have it you wardrobe is ready."

"I guess blondes aren't as dumb as they say" said Tenten

"Except for Naruto" Sakura added

Everyone laughed except for Hinata

"Hey Hinata why aren't you laughing with us"

"Because it wasn't funny and Naruto's my friend"

"Hinata" said Tenten

"Yes"

"Do you still like Kiba?"

"Umm yeah, why do you ask?"

"Well lately I've notice since this kid Naruto came into the picture you've been neglecting Kiba and have been very clingy to Naruto."

"what is the problem if I hang out with a friend?"

"you guys act more like boyfriend and girlfriend then friends" Ino added

"Ino can we just drop the subject we're going to be late"


AT THE CONCERT

The crowd roared and Chanted Minato's Name as he began to play his guitar at high speeds, and Kakashi on the drums complimented well, Anko join in with her guitar and Jiraiya on the bass everything fell perfectly with Minato's voice

In fields where nothing grew but weeds,
I found a flower at my feet,
bending there in my direction.
I wrapped a hand around its stem
and pulled until the roots gave in,
finding there what I've been missing.
And I know...

So I tell myself, I tell myself, it's wrong.
There's a point we pass from which we can't return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm...

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long.
When I do I dream
of drowning in the ocean;
longing for the shore
where I can lay my head down.
I'll follow your voice;
all you have to do is
shout it out!

Inside my hands these petals browned;
dried up falling to the ground,
but it was already too late now.
I pushed my fingers through the earth,
returned this flower to the dirt;
so it could live, I walked away now.
But I know...

Not a day goes by when I don't feel this burn.
There's a point we pass from which we can't return.
I felt the cold rain of the coming storm...

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long.
When I do I dream
of drowning in the ocean;
longing for the shore
where I can lay my head down.
I'll follow your voice;
all you have to do is
shout it out!

All because of you.
All because of you.

All because of you,
I haven't slept in so long.
When I do I dream
of drowning in the ocean;
longing for the shore
where I can lay my head down.
Inside these arms of yours.

All because of you
I believe in angels.
Not the kind with wings,
no, not the kind with halos;
the kind that bring you home
when home becomes a strange place.
I'll follow your voice;
all you have to do is
shout it out!

The music died their and everyone cheered like their was no tomorrow, everyone started to chant "another…another"

"You want an encore!"

"Hell Yea!!" everyone yelled

Kakashi started on the drums then it was Anko and Jiraya's turn Now Minato Sang

Lay down, sleep my little darling
I'll be nothing when you're gone
Lay down just like in a coffin
Then I'll have nothing but a song
Could I leave you in a coffin for real
And just leave you in a church
Lay down
Leave you'll be lonely
I know I won't go
Lay down
Sleep you'll be lonely
I know I won't go
It's not my turn

Lay down, this pain will be long gone
With the absence of your breath
I know that you loved me
But I can't love you when you're dead
So I'll leave you in that coffin for God
And I'll leave you in the dirt
Lay down
Leave you'll be lonely
I know I won't go
Lay down
Sleep you'll be lonely
I know I won't go
Lay down before me
I know I won't go
It's not my turn

"Wow your dad's band is great" Sasuke said

"I know and when we get our band together it'll be way better" Naruto said with excitement

The girls were in the lounge in the VIPs just listening and enjoying

"Our school should have concerts like these if only someone was brave enough" Tenten said

"I'm pretty sure Naruto can do it runs in his jeans" Hinata said remembering the first day

"You even know his jean size Hinata wow" Ino said

"No Ino she taking about music class on the first day when my Sasuke shown Naruto up" Sakura said

"Oh boy here she goes with the Sasuke thing again" Tenten said

Now it was getting towards the end of the show and Minato wanted to close it out with a dedication to his deceased wife everyone bowed their heads in respect especially Sasuke and Naruto, Sasuke knew how much a mother and family could mean to someone considering the fact he has no more family thanks to the deranged gunman Itachi and his ring leader Madara Uchiha, they were partners in crime alright (A/N: my bad back to minato)

Anko and Jiraiya hit it off with there instruments then Kakashi with the snares and then Minato sang in a voice that would break anyone down in tears and calm the most deranged animal

This time, This place
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore

On my knees, I'll ask
Last chance for one last dance
'Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
'Cause you know,
you know, you know

So far away
Been far away for far too long
So far away
Been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know

I wanted
I wanted you to stay
'Cause I needed
I need to hear you say
That I love you
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe it
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me and, never let me go

Minato looked guilty after the crowd was quiet it seemed like he needed to get something off his chest when he looked down at Naruto but that all changed soon when Fireworks exploded, everything was perfect the crowd was in tears and roared real loudly at another legendary performance by the Yellow Flash


After the concert everyone who didn't have a VIP ticket had to leave the boys left, and although the girls had VIP tickets Hinata's dad told them come home after.

NARUTO'S PLACE

"I'm crashing here tonight" Sasuke said

"Fine with me but your going to get smacked in every 360 game possible tonight" Naruto said with one of his trademark grins

"Don't tell me that was your comeback because I can't beat you with only one hand on the controller."

"You're on teme"

"Watever you say dobe"
