Hinata's P.O.V.
I walked nervously to Language Arts where Ms. Sweet Ann awaited my song. I thought long and hard about the lyrics and I believe they will suffice. I placed my shaking hand on the door knob and tried opening the door. Before I could turn the knob a hand was placed over mine opening it for me. I looked up to see Naruto. He grinned and opened the door for me.
"Don't worry, Hinata. Knowing you, your song will knock their socks off!" I couldn't help but blush at his optimism. He's always smiling; it makes me happy. I nodded and proceeded to walk in.
"Hey Hina-chan!" Len waved. I gave him a small wave and smiled. Naruto walked over to Len and bro fisted. I giggled and sat in my seat, between the boys. Because Ms. Sweet Ann was running late, we had some time to either prepare for our songs or talk with other classmates. I was too worried about my song to socialize, so I silently rehearsed the lyrics to myself.
By the time Ms. Sweet Ann arrived, I hadn't finished practicing. She greeted us and explained how her husband, Mr. Big Al, forgot to wake her up. The class laughed at her excuse, while urged myself to fit in a verses. She then called up the victi-I mean singer.
"Can Mr. Naruto Uzumaki please come up and present his song?" She requested. Naruto boldly walked up to the front and tuned his head phones. He heard a satisfying click and faced towards his audience. Surely Naruto wouldn't choose a stupid song or something….right? Oh Kami…
Bijuu Kazoeuta. Hajimari, hajimari!
My eyes must've been bulging out of my head. The class may have been laughing at his intro but I remember this song. Naruto had formed a gang with some upper classmen and a few teachers called "The Jinchuuriki" and whenever their gang would stroll down the halls together, Naruto would sing this song. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one sweating from the war flashbacks.
Hitotsu hito yori inemuri Shukaku.

Doudou sorotta bijuu no nakama.
Choi muzu dakedo ii namae.
Minna rippana namae dane.
Minna sutekina namae dane.
I sighed a little, but I smiled as well. That was one of the cutest things about Naruto. Whenever he became really excited about something, his adorable speech tick would show up. At first I thought it was a Japanese phrase I failed to learn upon my education, however I grew to understand it was just a Naruto thing.
Hitotsu hidoi kuma dayo Gaara. Tottemo tsuyoi jinchuuriki no minna.

(A/N: BTW It was the Bijuu Counting Song))
Naruto bowed and the class applauded to his well-deserved performance. Ms. Sweet Ann was in dramatic tears. I hope she doesn't do that all the time. Naruto stepped down and high-fived Len. I clapped as well. It may have been like those nightmare lullabies in horror films to Konoha High, but in this school, it was music. Naruto proudly took his seat.
"See Hinata! If I could perform no sweat then you can too!" Naruto grinned. I had to smile in return. I faced front and I swear my heart jumped into my throat. Ms. Sweet Ann looked at me with so much ferocity it burned to look into her eyes.
"Up next is Hinata Hyuga~" She sang. As I stood up, I could feel body begin to perspirate rapidly. I robotically approached the front keeping my head down. I looked up to the class and I felt like I was going to hurl. I just forgot my entire song. But I practiced all this time and I-I-!
"WOOOOOO GO HINATA! WOOOOOOO!"
I snapped out of my emotional breakdown to see the two blonds of my life cheering me on. I couldn't help but grin. I straightened myself and began to tune my headphones. I hit my correct frequency and pushed the button the side. It made a soft melody. I closed my eyes breathed in.
Do you ever miss the girl you left behind?~
I opened my eyes to see everyone including Ms. Sweet Ann staring, as if they were hanging off of my every word. I smiled and my confidence grew as I continued.
Is the girl you left behind out there tonight romancin'?
Makin' eyes at someone else and singin', is she dancin'?
Only the girl you left behind is real when you're sleepin'
Puts the teardrops in your eyes from secrets she is keepin'
Happy just playin' a tune and dance the whole night away
Hope the girl you left behind will be there for you someday
Lonely is the wind that blows, you know you'll always miss her
Lonely is a lover's heart, if only you could
Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her
I danced around a little. The beat was really catchy and I couldn't help but move around some. I'm not even sure if I had ever had this much fun dancing around in front of a crowd.
All the girls you left behind could fill up California So tell me you will never roam So where's the girl you left behind? She's waitin' for her sister
Please don't leave them too darn long, I think I oughtta warn ya
Absence makes the heart go cold and makes a heart to wander
If you stay there by their sides, you'll feel their hearts grow fonder
Hope you see her someday
Hope I find my way
Back to the girl I left behind
(We swear we won't go roaming)
You'll be by your fireside
(We'll all be home sweet home and kiss her, kiss her, kiss her)
We won't stop until we're home we'll hug and hug and kiss her
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl
I'll find the girl~
I performed a couple of spins to the beat and halted in to face my peers.
You'll find the girl
You'll find the girl you left behind
Tonight! Tonight! Tonight!
That's right
Alright!
(The Girl you left Behind from the movie An American Tail: Fieval Goes West)
I finished with my fist in the air. The class exploded in cheers and applause. I blushed profusely as I realized I had broken a bit out of my shell. I bowed and curtsied before taking my leave off of the small "stage". I tried to take a seat but I was engulfed by four arms squeezing me.
"Geez Hinata why didn't you tell me you had that kind of singing power!" Naruto praised. Len nodded in agreement.
"Your frequency was perfection! I didn't know you could hit such a high note in the beginning." He went on. My face felt like it was swelling with a mixture of excitement and embarrassment. I was so drained, all I could manage to reply to their compliments was-
"Yeah….."
Yuki: Guess who's back back back~
Hina: Back again gain gain~
Yuki: Yuki's back back back~
Len: Tell a friend friend friend
Yuki: Indeed. I have returned from my journey. So fear not my followers and do not kill me! For your savior has returned! And will update EVERY WEEK! Or sooner depending how I feel…
REVIEW! EVEN IF YOU REALLY HATE ME, SAY SOMETHING NICE~
