Yo, ;Pagan here with another chapter. Thanks for all the wonderful reviews they really got me pumped and as a result I was able to get this chapter up sooner then I thought.
Warnings: AU, slight OOC, student – Teacher relations, yaoi (sweating boy sex drool)
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or any song featured thru out this story. If I did I would be rich and Naruto would be full of smutty Yaoi scenes
Chapter 2
"NAAARUUUTOOOOO!!!!"
Naruto paused turning around in the hallway only to be bowled over by a happy Tenten. "OWW Tenten not so hard next time huh."
"Ha, sorry Naru I'll be careful next time. Hey guess what my schedule was changed and I have your lunch now."
"Wow great now all my friends have lunch with me." Naruto said grinning. He was right about people remembering him from ninth grade. It had been a week since he started school and he'd run into all of his old friends. They had been shocked to see him but happy just the same.
Lost in his happy thoughts Naruto totally forgot that he and Tenten were sprawled out on the floor in the hallway with her straddling his waist. He was quickly reminded however, when a shadow suddenly loomed over them. "Naruto, Tenten I am not be completely sure but I'm guessing you shouldn't be doing that in the school hallway."
Naruto looked up and Tenten craned her head back to take in none other then Kakashi -sensei looking down at them with what suspiciously looked like a smirk under his mask. "Oh, sensei it not what you think" they yelled simultaneously scrambling to their feet.
Kakashi's smirk just seemed to grow. "Is that so, I was mistaken then." He said but ruined it by winking at them before continuing down the hallway leaving two teens scowling behind him.
"Come on Tenten." Naruto said walking towards the cafeteria while muttering under his breath about masked hotties and conclusion jumping.
Naruto sat at his usually table. Greeting his friends he quickly began inhaling his food . They were all still as he remembered. Kiba still dog-obsessed, Hinata still shy, Shikamaru still a lazy ass, Shino who was still creepy if not creepier, Lee still a stuck-on-youth weirdo, and Ino who by her declaration was still fabulous. And his new friends Tenten and Sakura who he had met in Government and hit it off with right away. He was happy they were with him. He had been scared that because of the way he left people would be scared of him. There were some students who whispered in the hallway about him and gave him frightened looks but he ignored them. He was ok as long as he had his friends. With that thought he remembered he had yet to invite them to his show.
"Hey you guys" Naruto started causing everyone to look at him expectantly "Umm, I'm having this show on Saturday and I was wondering if you want to come see us perform."
Nothing and then there was a crash as Lee leap from his chair and threw a fist in the air. "I would love to see you perform with the rigorousness of youth!!" He yelled causing everyone at the table to stare.
"Oh wow, man" Kiba chuckled shaking his head at the boy's antics before turning to address Naruto. "None of us have ever seen your band perform before." He stated.
"Yeah" Hinata said giggling "I want to go."
"me too"
"me three"
"me four"
Piped up Ino, Sakura, and Tenten all three practically squirmed with excitement. Shikamaru and Shino just grunted their agreement. Naruto smiled at their quick agreement before getting up "Great it's at the Insomniac at nine PM. I have to go now though." He said the others waved goodbye as he walked out of the cafeteria. Walking down the hall he stopped before the only black door in the whole school. Opening it he poked his head in. "Hey Anko-sensei" he greeted the band teacher.
"Hey Naruto came to get your guitar."
"Yeah I only got two classes left and I won't have time to come get it afterward."
Anko nodded in understanding. "Hey Naruto" she asked "is it ok if I bring people with me to see your show?" (Naruto invited her when he dropped off his guitar earlier)
"Yeah, sure thing Anko-sensei see ya later K."
"Yeah later" the teacher said turn back to the piano she had been tuning.
Walking back out into the hallway Naruto looked at his watch realizing he still had some time on his hands before class he headed up to the roof.
Kakashi lifted his head from where it rested on his arms as the door to the roof opened. He shifted into a seated position on a bench hidden behind the water tank. Peeking around it for a better look at the person interrupting his alone time he blinked as his eyes took in a familiar mop of golden hair. Watching as Naruto settled himself against the fence and took out an acoustic guitar. He then proceeded to smile as Naruto reached up and took off one of his earrings which was nothing more then a Guitar pick attached to an earring fixture(1) and began playing.
And I'm ok
Seems I just needed a break
Sat down but now I'm up again
And finding out I'm alone
My friends left me behind
And into another town
Where this boy is not around
And I don't blame them
I'd do the same
And now I'm alone again
Kakashi eyes widened. His voice was amazingly smooth and filled with emotion. The song was heart achingly sincere and the depth of that sincerity was visible in every word that spilled from those perfect lips.
So I'll sing along to the only song I've ever known
And I'll sing it out to the lonely ones, oh oh oh
Those days are gone but the nights roll on taking their place
So I'm singing it out to the lonely ones
Hey, let's write the story again
Where I'm your lover and best friend
Pack our bags and we'll leave this old ghost town behind
And into another town
Where this boy is not around
He made the mistake of leaving you
That was mistake number two
Naruto eyes closed as he got lost deeper into the song. The song he had written for someone very close to him. But just as much as this song was for him it was for Gaara. He smiled, that person hadn't seen him that way he saw them. Haku had been his best friend and Gaara's boyfriend. Yes, HAD as in past tense. He had fancied himself in love with Haku and had no problem admitting it; at least not to himself.
So I'll sing along to the only song I've ever known
And I'll sing it out to the lonely ones, oh oh oh
Those days are gone but the nights roll on taking their place
So I'm singing it out to the lonely ones
Hey, let's write the story again
Where I'm your lover and best friend
So I'll sing along to the only song I've ever known
And I'll sing it out to the lonely ones, oh oh oh
Those days are gone but the nights roll on taking their place
So I'm singing it out to the lonely ones, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Naruto sighed as he strummed the last note. He held no ill will towards Gaara or Haku. As a matter of fact he had wished them the best. His love had been a secret and it remained so. However, it saddened him to find out that in the end the two hadn't even been in love only lust and Haku and Gaara had broken up a month before the move. The day before they left he had met Haku's new boyfriend Zabuza. Haku was clearly happy with him and even though you couldn't look at Zabuza's face and tell his eyes clearly showed his happiness. So, wishing them the best he had gotten in the car and drove away never looking back at the first boy to truly touch his heart.
"Well that was kind of sad."
Naruto started; whipping his head towards the voice he was shocked to find that he was not alone. "Oh, Kakashi-sensei" he breathed out "you scared me I didn't know anyone else was up here."
"Hn, obviously; so who'd you write the song for?" Kakashi asked.
"Just some boy I knew." Naruto answered vaguely.
Kakashi nodded. "Do you mind me asking it you loved him?" There was a long stretch of silence in which Kakashi thought his heart would break through his chest. He didn't know why the answer meant so much to him it just did. He knew it was probably a bad thing that it did but he couldn't seem to care. There was something about Naruto that pulled at him. Something that made his chest tighten and his breath hitch and yeah if he was honest with himself his loin's burn. Something about this kid got to him and when he was in the room he found himself wanting to throw everything else away and focus only on Naruto.
"I did" it was so sudden Kakashi almost missed it. He zoomed in on one word however DID. "Yes did as in don't any longer" Kakashi looked up not realizing he had said it out loud. Looking at his face Naruto stood up laughing "I'll see you in sixth Kakashi-sensei" he said grabbing his guitar and walking towards the door. Reaching it he looked back over his shoulder "And by the way you didn't say it out loud." Kakashi snapped his head around to look at him. Naruto just shrugged "I figured if you liked me you would zoom in on that word" and then he was gone. Leaving behind a dumbfounded, blushing (as if anyone could tell) Kakashi and the echo of laughter in his wake.
TBC
I stole all of my bro's picks to make earrings. But instead of being mad he had me make his girlfriend a set.
Yeah, another chapter done.
Song is The only song by Sherwood. I went through so many songs before I settled on one it was literally a two hour ordeal. But it was fun cause I liked all the songs (if I didn't I wouldn't use it).
Ok so next chapter SASUKE in case you were wondering where he was. See ya ;Pagan
