Symphonic Chapter 4, a naruto fanfic

Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, I would have it be a Shonen-Ai, sadly, according to everything I have seen it is only a Shonen. However to look on the bright side, Gaara does have the Ai on his forehead. If I owned Naruto, I would not have killed off Itachi (Grr at Masashi Kishimoto for doing that), Neji would fall in love with Sai, and Sasuke would be a man whore… lol.

I also do not own the song used in this chapter, it is owned by whoever wrote it, not me enjoy...

Rating Change: I am going to have some minor yuri and a hint of yaoi in this chapter. Also some het starting now too. If you are offended by this then please DO NOT READ! I also will have some cross dressing in this story, don't worry though it goes with the plot. Not yet a M rating...

The week of being grounded had been uneventful, it didn't bother Naruto cause he had made friends with his room mate, so he was able to goof off with him. It did bother Gaara though due to the fact that he had a huge crush on Naruto that seemed to grow every day. That first night was the hardest for Gaara so far. In the middle of the night, Naruto had woke up screaming, Gaara who had been on the sofa asleep, woke up and followed the screaming blond all the way downstairs and into the basement. Following them had been a worried Temari and a grumpy Kankuro.

Naruto had thrown open Iruka's bedroom door to the sight of Baki and Iruka half dressed making out on top of the large bed. "Gaara…" Naruto mumbled still half asleep.

Iruka looked over at all four teens and blushed, "What about Gaara?"

"Otis killed him." Naruto mumbled, "Then Temari turned into Baby and started doing that creepy laugh…. Hehehehe…" Naruto tiredly plopped down on the floor, "When I tried to wake up Kankuro, he morphed into Tiny and started to chase me…" his voice trailed off.

Kankuro laughed, "So you watched those Rob Zombie movies?"

Naruto was curling up on the floor, starting to drift back to sleep. "I better get him back to bed." Iruka went to get the blond.

"We will take him." Gaara said, he felt bad that he had caused the nightmare. Albeit unintentionally that it was, he still felt as if it was due to him.

Iruka had watched as Gaara hoisted Naruto to stand up on his feet.

Once back up in the attic bedroom, Naruto had literally pulled the red head into bed with him, snuggling up to him while mumbling how he liked his red hair. In other words, Gaara got very little sleep due to the close proximity. And when he did manage to drift off to sleep, the blond would roll over and press up to the warmth of the other body, jolting Gaara wide awake once more.

The following day brought Kiba, he was upset to say the least about his drums, when Naruto promised to replace them, he was placated somewhat. When Iruka saw the drummer, he chased him out of the house telling him that Naruto "couldn't play." To which Naruto giggled and Kiba went running away.

So to say that Naruto did not enjoy his "punishment" would have been a understatement. Iruka had taken him and Gaara to the music store and bought the most expensive drums they had.

Kankuro and Temari had started work at the posh restaurant that Iruka owned, Temari as a hostess and Kankuro as a bus boy. He quit that very night after finding out that the tips that he was finding on the tables were to go to the waitress and not him. He reasoned that all the waitress did was bring the food to the tables. He did the dirty work, he cleaned up the messy tables after the rude customers left. And if said rude customers didn't like the food or service, they left the messiest tables.

When Naruto found out that Kankuro could play the guitar, he invited him to join the band. Gaara would sit on the sofa and watch as Kankuro played the guitar while Naruto would sing. The band did cover songs, ones that Shikamaru and Naruto liked. Gaara liked how the blond sounded. When it was just the three of them, it felt like he was singing just for him, sending chills down his spine.

After the week of not having any contact with the rest of his band, as soon as his punishment was over, Naruto had Kiba, Choji, and Shikamaru all over. They liked the sound that Kankuro brought to the band so decided to keep it with him on back up guitar, and acoustic guitar. Every day for two weeks were spent rehearsing for the upcoming power of youth concert that Gai was hosting at a local warehouse that he owned.

On the last week before the concert, the band moved all the equipment to it and practiced in it nearly twenty four hours a day. During these times, Gaara had nothing to do, except take care of the three week old kitten that Naruto had brought home a week earlier. Naruto didn't want anyone to hear the new song that they were working on, the red head missed his room mate, and would wait up till all hours of the night waiting for him to come home.

Naruto also missed Gaara and hated that he did, he would often complain about it to himself, reminding himself that before he had met Gaara, he had been perfectly fine alone. One night, the night before the show, he and Kiba stayed out all night goofing off, he had then crashed over at Kiba's house. Never once checking his cell phone for messages. If he had, he would have heard from Iruka that he was going to have his granny show up at the concert.

Naruto was the one that had chose the clothes, and Sai was the one to do the hair and makeup of all of them.

"So," Shikamaru grinned at Naruto, as they were getting ready for the show. "Is it still on for tonight?"

Sai overheard, "What are you two planning?"

Naruto smiled and said, "You know it Shikamaru."

"Tell me." Sai was applying the make up on Naruto's eyes.

"It's something for you Sai, so we can't say. Right Shikamaru?"

"Yeah…" Shikamaru actually smiled. "Troublesome that it will be…"

"Just tell me." Sai paused his hand, the eyeliner pencil held half way to the eyes.

"Its just a song…" Shikamaru said, "A song from us to you."

"Oh, well then in that case I need to make you all as hot as possible." Sai smiled as he knew that it would be easy to do for these five boys.

Kankuro groaned over in the corner, "Why the hell am I wearing girls clothes again?"

Choji continued eating his chips that were open on the counter, "Cause Naruto changes our look for each show."

"Yeah, this time you lucked out." Kiba laughed. "At least we are not wearing those god awful green jump suits from Gai's Place."

"All you have to worry about is showing off your underwear." Choji added.

"But we are in drag…" Kankuro groaned louder. "Temari and Gaara are going to be here." Putting his hand over his eyes, he added as an afterthought, "Oh no, all the cute girls will see me in a pair of short shorts, and this damn halter top."

"Yeah," Shikamaru added, "At least you don't have a girl in particular that you are wanting to impress, like I do. And don't remind me about your sister being here, she is the one girl I would love to avoid dressed like this."

Naruto hid his grin, he was enjoying the moment.

Gai-sensei knocked on the door and said through it, "Ten more minutes."

Ten minutes later, Naruto followed Shikamaru and Kiba, behind him was Kankuro and Choji, they could all hear Gai's speech about the power of youth and to not forget to get all the school supplies and clothes they would need at Gai's Place. In other words free advertisement.

When he called for the Rejects to the stage, they all went out to cat calls and cheers. Naruto saw that all their friends were the nosiest. Grinning with devilish delight, Naruto grabbed the microphone.

"This is the mark of the new school year that stars in two weeks." Naruto spoke into the microphone. "We have been a band now for a little over a year, we added a new member, and came up with a few new songs, this first one is dedicated to Sai. So enjoy!" As the music started, Naruto began to sing.

Yo check it out, I've got a plan, here's my intention.
The frat boys in the club are lame, let's start an altercation.
It's just what I'm used to, just want to fuck shit up.
I got my whole damn crew, come on, what you gonna do?

I kissed a boy and they liked it, got all the honeys in the club excited.
I kissed a boy just to start shit, and homeboy was not about it.
I know it's wrong, but I don't mind, I'm gonna start shit tonight.
I kissed a boy just to start shit, bitches loved it.

Nah, you don't even know my name, it doesn't matter.
Don't even front, you got no game, your just a sucker.
So what now, I clowned you, and I'm stealing your girl too.
She wants a secure dude, and that's just not you.

Me and my bros, that's how we roll,
You'll never know how far we'll go,
I'll grab some chump that I don't know,
And plant one right on him,
Your only here for our amusement.

As the song ended Naruto kissed Shikamaru. It was only suppose to be a kiss, however they ended up wrapping their arms around each other and deepening it to where it was obvious to all that they were using their tongues too. It was when Shikamaru planted his hand on Naruto's ass that Kiba started a drum roll trying to get them to break up the kiss. Choji eased over to where he had stashed his chips and grabbed a few handfuls, while he watched the action on stage, he had never imagined that Shikamaru and Naruto would pull this kind of stunt. Yeah he could see Kiba and Naruto, not Shikamaru, he did think it was kind of hot though.

Kankuro saw Temari doing a cat call at the two and next to her Gaara had a cup in his hand that he slowly squeezed, crushing it. Something dark in his eyes as he watched Naruto being kissed on stage. Placing his hand on his face, Kankuro wondered just why he had joined this band. It was now plainly obvious to him that his little bro had a thing for the front man.

The drum roll seemed to last an infinitely long time. Naruto had long ago lost track of time as Shikamaru probed his mouth, he had never imagined anything feeling so good. It could last forever and he would not mind at all. Reality hit him though when Kiba had stopped his drum roll and approached them, he yanked Naruto out of Shikamaru's arms and planted a kiss of his own on Naruto's swollen lips before saying, "We got more songs to do."

Blushing prettily, Naruto looked out at the audience, all the girls were still whistling for more, yet when he heard a vaguely familiar voice snap, "Stop blushing, Shizune." Naruto felt a moment of intense panic. Standing near the middle of the stage, with her nose upturned in a pout, was his paternal grandma, Iruka, Baki, and his dad's cousin, Shizune.

"Granny Tsunade," Naruto squeaked.

Tsunade glared at her unpredictable grandson.

Naruto scampered back to the drums to nearly hide behind Kiba. "Well now that the entertainment is over," he cleared his throat before continuing, "This song is for all those going back to school soon."

By the time the show was over, Naruto bounced off the stage, grabbed Gaara and dragged him away, with the band hurriedly following. "So how was it?" he asked the red headed teen.

"Good."

"Is that all?" Kiba teased.

"I liked the costumes." Temari pointedly looked at her brother. They were still wearing them.

"Damn…" Kankuro mumbled, "When can I get changed?"

"Oh… Kankuro," Temari purred, "You look so cute, I think you should wear those shorts all the time."

"Don't even start…" Kankuro lunged at her.

"Oh and why not?" Temari teased, "Is the itty bitty boy going to cry? Are you going to go home and play with your little puppets?"

"So when is the next gig going to be?" Kiba folded his hands and placed them behind his head as they walked, effectively ignoring the argument between the twins.

"Homecoming I think." Naruto jumped up on Kiba's back and tried to wrestle him down to the ground. "We need to think of a new look." Once he realized that he couldn't, he jumped down.

"Yeah…" Shikamaru nodded, "Why not go as super heroes?"

"Or how about jocks?"

Naruto mulled over what Choji and Shikamaru had suggested, "We could do a look from the fifties."

"Yeah all Elvis like." Kiba added.

They were in front of Kiba's house, "See ya Monday?" Naruto asked as Kiba headed into the house.

"Sure thing." Kiba waved.

After walking Choji home, they all decided to go eat somewhere. Deciding on Denny's, they walked through the parking lot and saw Ino and Sakura against the building. Ino had Sakura pinned to the wall, and was kissing the other girl with tenderness. Naruto paused to watch his one time crush making out with her rival. Sakura slid one hand under Ino's shirt while the other hand went to the blonds' long hair to pull on it so that the kiss could deepen to Sakura's wants.

The two girls parted slightly to glare at them, "What do you want?" Ino asked defensively.

Grinning, Naruto honestly told them, "You two a couple now? You look good together."

"NO!" Sakura said a little too quickly

Ino looked a little upset, when Sakura pushed her away though, the blond covered up her expression, "Don't go thinking that I would want to have a relationship with her…" Ino's voice held a touch of the venom that could sting a rattlesnake.

"Touché," Shikamaru said as he walked away from the two girls.

"Well, you two should kiss more often, it looks hot." Naruto said.

"We will if you do again." Ino grinned at the blond singer.

Naruto realized that the only one that had stayed with him was Gaara, "Fine." Walking over to the red head with a purpose, a mischievous gleam in his eyes, Naruto placed one hand behind Gaara's head and gently pulled the other towards him.

Shocked, Gaara was unable or unwilling to deny the cute blond. When their lips touched a jolt of electricity seemed to run down from those lips to the soles of his feet...
