A/N: I suggest you listen to the song(s) while reading it'll make things better. But it's up to you really. Please enjoy.

After graduation ceremony had come to an end the group had decided on going to a Karaoke bar. They had decided that it'll be fun to hang out, do Karaoke and have dinner they could all afford there. The place wasn't that crowded but there were a few groups of people. Some were even from their school, Chieri, Itachi, Deidara, Hiden, Kisame and Kankuro had joined in the fun.

They were lucky to get a seat in front the stage on a very long, semi-circle, black leather couch with a circle glass table. Kiba and Naruto was the first to jump into the seat both trying to get the middle.

Hinata slipped into the space next to Naruto, she was a bit nervous about coming here, knowing her friends she'd have to participate in singing, they wouldn't have it any other way. On their way over Karin and Ino had been pestering her about it.

Sakura and Sasuke slipped in next to the raven hair girl and everyone took their places. Amy would have come along with Kiba but she had plans with her girlfriends and parents but he understood though and he didn't mind.

Before they had come over here, when Suigetsu went over to Karin's to pick her up, she had given him the shoes she had bought. He couldn't believe she had done this for him but he had bought something for her as well.

He had got a bracelet with her name on it for her made out of gold. That was one of the reason he hadn't bought the shoes, so he'd save for a gift for her. Karin loved her present although she thought he didn't have to get her anything. She was wearing it on with her black halter dress that reached knee length.

'K-Oh bar' was a very popular bar so it was a fairly big place and looked very fancy to but the prices were reasonable. They were lucky Choji dad knew the owner or else they would not have gotten a spot in there for the night, since they were a large group.

The stage was large enough to fit instalments and a group of twenty people and the interments were pervaded for the customers that wanted to use them.

What better way to spend your graduation night than with your friends in a cheap restaurant/bar with free entertainment. It wasn't about the place but the people that surrounded you right?

"Who's up first?" Naruto asked referring to singing on stage. They had already ordered their own special meal and drinks and they were chit-chatting now.

"Let's vote on it." Jugo suggested, and then went into greater details. "Let's write a bunch of songs in a bowl with numbers on it then we'll all choose and who get's number one would have to go first." When he was done explaining his idea they all agreed to this.

This way there won't be too much arguing on who goes when, let's face it no matter how close of friends they are there was always going to be fights. It's just the way things were.

When they were done every one dipped in and took out a paper from the bowl. They had asked the waiter to bring paper, pens and the bowl for them. Said waiter gave them funny looks but did it anyway because all the staff members were ordered to treat them to anything they asked of, thanks to Choji family connections.

"Shit! Shit! I got one!" Hidan scrunched up his face in displeasure, great this was his luck.

"Oh oh don't tell what song you got, that's a rule you can't tell what song you got!" Matsuri yelled out. The main reason for this was because she wanted it to be a surprise of what song she got.

"Come on I graduated from school to get away from rules." Naruto joked.

Temari was surprise Hidan hadn't notice her as yet. Ino and Karin were acting as if they weren't seeing Deidara and Sakura found this amusing. He too was acting like he had never met them before. Temari rolled her eyes at Sakura for finding amusement in their pain, anything new there.

But she was a bit jumpy about causing drama between him, her and Shikamaru on their graduation day.

"Go get them tiger." Deidara pushed Hidan on the arm for him to move from his frozen state. When Hidan got up Chieri, Sakura and some of the others cheered him on. He cursed at them a few times before he made it to the supervisor of the bar to talk about his song.

000

"Baby squirrel, yours a sexy motherfucker."

'Bruno Marz – Treasure' started playing and Hidan appeared on stage. The lights dimmed and shone mostly on him.

"Give me your, give me your, give me your attention, baby. I gotta tell you a little something about yourself." He began signing, to their surprise he sounded excellent. Matsuri and Karin began melting in their seats; they were huge Bruno Mars fans. Tenten took a swing at her alcohol wine and began swaying and singing.

"I know that you don't know it, but your fine, so fine (fine, so fine)." Hidan pointed to a random girl who winked at him. "Oh girl, I'm gonna slow you when you're mine, oh mine (mine, oh, mine)."

"Whooah!" Chieri cheered on snapping her fingers, Itachi chuckled it's been a while since they and their friends had done something like this. It brought back some good memories.

"Treasure that is what you are. Honey, you're my golden star. You know you can make my wish come true. If you let me treasure you. If you let me treasure you."

Everyone else at the bar seemed to be enjoying Hidan's singing as much as their group was. "You're ok with him being here?" Temari asked Shikamaru; at first he wasn't ok with it. But it didn't bother him anymore. Hidan didn't even seem to remember Temari, or he was a really good actor.

"You are my treasure, you are my treasure, you are my treasure. You are my treasure, yeah, you, you, you are."

"No, I'm fine with it; it was just a bet thing with you and the girl's right, nothing more." Shikamaru glanced at her; he was speaking low so no one else would hear him.

"Yea, nothing else." Temari reassured him, he nod to her then took her hands in his.

"Then it's ok Temari." He kissed her hands and smiled at her. Temari blushed and looked down at her hand.

"Get a room you two." Ino laughed at the both of them causing Sai and Choji to look over at them.

Sai had sat next to Sasuke with Ino next to him. Then there was Shikamaru and Temari, along with Choji, RockLee, Tenten and Neji. On the other end next to Kiba was Shino, Karin, Suigetsu, Jugo, Kankuro, Matsuri and Gaara.

Hidan had finished up his song and returned to his seat next to Deidara and Kisame. "Who's next?" He asked a little breathless form his performance. No one answered and everyone looked around the table. Gaara leaned back and acted as casual as he could, until Matsuri looked down at his piece of paper.

"Gaara's next everyone!" Gaara glared at her then sighed.

"Fine I'm up next." He grumbles and got up. He knew they won't let this go. First they had him playing a game of hide and seek and now he was going to sing on stage, what next? He rather not think about it.

000

A tune began playing and Matsuri smiled, she loved this song. 'Viva La Vida- by- Cold Play' was Gaara's song to be sang. The song kind of suited him, well his deep voice, sort of.

"I used to rule the world. Seas would rise when I gave the word. Now in the morning I sleep alone. Seep the streets I used to own."

Ino, Sakura, Tenten and Karin squealed at Gaara's voice. His voice deep and husky, very man like. This wasn't the first time Matsuri or Temari had heard him sing so they were expecting this.

"I used to roll the dice. Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes. Listen as the crowd would sing. Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

RockLee, Ino, Shikamaru and Kiba gave each other knowing looks. They knew this song all too well and it had a memory to go along with it. Every time they heard this song they remembered that day and the time they spent together.

...

-(Flash Back)-

It was when they were all freshman, Ino had known Shikamaru already, but she didn't know the others like she did now. They had a class project and she and Shika were paired up with RockLee and Kiba. At the time RockLee was in-love with Sakura and Kiba had a crush on Tenten. Ino liked Sasuke but didn't say a word because she knew Sakura liked him. Shikamaru had a crush on Hinata at the time.

Things were allot different back then, they had all grown so much actually.

They had to create a documentary on how they developed a volcano from scratch. Everything was going well until one day during their filming session Kiba brought up a question. "Hey Lee, why do you like Sakura so much it's clear she and Sasuke got a thing going." Kiba asked the boy, he placed the camera down not noticing it was recording.

"She's just so beautiful, smart, strong; she'd fall for me you'd see." RockLee made a dreamy face; Ino stomped over and hit both guys. "She and Sasuke don't have a thing going on ok; Lee I always thought you used Sakura as a cover, you know to cover up the fact that you're gay, anyway let's focused!"

Lee was in shock, he couldn't believe Ino just said that to him. Kiba grin evilly not only because Ino just called Lee gay. Even though Ino never told anyone about her crush many people knew about it. Kiba was one of those people.

"Oh why so angry Ino is it because you want Sasuke for yourself." Kiba teased the blonde girl. Lee was just happy the topic wasn't about him anymore, they were mean.

"Shut up dog boy you're in love with Tenten that bun head girl!" Ino's high pitch voice drew Shika's attention, Kiba growl out in anger.

"Shut it Blondie or I'd tell Sakura about your crush." Kiba threatened, RockLee stood up leaving the mud volcano on the ground.

"You like Tenten?" He asked surprise, he knew Tenten was into Neji.

"Settle down guys, let's just do this and we'll never have to deal with each other again." Shikamaru joined in to stop the bickering. But Kiba took this the wrong way.

"So we're not good enough for you and little miss perfect over there huh, you would have rather your little crush Hinata huh." Ino's eye went wide, how did Kiba know and she didn't. She was suppose to know everything gossip wise at their school, seems like she had completion. Or maybe she could pair up with Kiba to find out more. If only she could stand the guy.

That wasn't the point here; she couldn't believe Shikamaru told Kiba over her.

"You like Hinata and you told him and not me." Shikamaru threw his hands in the air and rolled his eyes. This is why he would rather lay under a tree and watch clouds or take a nap than dealing with people.

"He didn't have to tell me I know everything." Kiba told Ino, RockLee walked up closer to the two.

"Guys, Guys! Look, it makes no sense fighting over this. Let's do the project and forget about all this." With some thought they agreed and left calling it a day. Their minds racing with the new information,.

On the day to hand in the project Kiba had place the tape on the teachers table. Ino was in charge of editing but she had ditched her task half way through to play with Sakura and Choji. So she had not seen their confession in the tape.

She thought their teacher was going just look through the tapes and grade them. But what she didn't know was their tape was going to be presented in front the class.

When their tape was next to being played on the small school's TV in front the class Ino sank in her seat. Kiba gave her small glances and Shikamaru shock his head at her. RockLee just told her it wasn't her fault. That was until their confession part came up. The four of them had notice it before it could happened.

To prevent the entire class from knowing their secrets Kiba stood up and began singing. "I used to rule the world." Everyone in class looked at him and then RockLee catching on to what he was doing joined in. "Seas would rise when I gave the word."

Shikamaru began singing as well, he was desperate to keep his secret hidden from those who didn't know of it and then the three of them ran over to the TV screen. Kiba gave Ino a look and she followed them signing as well.

Then she easily took off the TV and destroyed the tape there and then. She had to do it. They got an F but they could careless at the time, as long as their secrets remain as a secret.

-(End of Flashback)-

...

As Gaara ended the song the four laughed with each other. Kiba had stop liking Tenten that way. He found out Tenten liked Neji and he just liked her as a friend. Those three were the only ones to know of his crush.

Ino had given up on Sasuke when she realised Sakura didn't just have a crush, but was in love, Shikamaru came to realise he never really had a crush on Hianta, he just like her 'down to earth-ness' she wasn't as troublesome as other girls. Lee took the longest to get over his crush, but he did indeed move on.

000

Temari was up next, she had to sing 'Heart Attack by Demi Lovato'.

"Puttin' my defences up. Cause I don't wanna fall in love. If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack."

She looked directly at Shika as she sang the words. She was happy to get this song; it was how she felt with Shikamaru. Not exactly but it was what he did to her at time.

"Never put my love out on the line. Never said yes to the right guy. Never had trouble getting what I want. But when it comes to you, I'm never good enough."

He did make her nervous but then he'd take it away with a kiss or touch. He had come to know her better than she knew herself. she felt incomplete without him and never in her life had she wanted someone so badly.

"When I don't care I can play em like a ken doll. Won't wash my hair. Then make em bounce like a basket ball."

She pointed to him as she sang the next part. "But you make me wanna act like a girl. Paint my nails and wear high heels. Yes, you make me so nervous. And I just can't hold your hand."

Temari smiled to herself, she knew she had found love; she was truly in love with this guy. And the best part was he loved her to. They always said you'd know you are in love when it comes your way that you just knew, once upon a time she laughed at that but now she believed in it. She just knew she loved him.

"You make me glow, but I cover up won't let it show, so I'm putting my defences up. Cause I don't wanna fall in love. If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack."

Temari remembered what Shikamaru graduation gift to her was. She had given him a gold watch with his initials on the back of it. But to her his was special, it meant the world to her and he knew it.

"Never break a sweat for the other guys. When you come around, I get paralyzed. And every time I try to be myself, it comes out wrong, like a cry for help."

He had given her a promise ring; it was familiar to an engagement ring. He had promised to never leave her alone, to never stop loving her. It wasn't an engagement ring but it was a symbol of his love and to her that was allot.

"It's just not fair, pain's more trouble than love is worth, I gasped for air. It feels so good, but you know it hurts. But you make me wanna act like a girl. Paint my nails and wear perfume. For you make me so nervous. And I just can't hold your hand."

Shikamaru sneakily showed her the watch and smiled. She smiled back and flashed him the ring on her index finger. Only he and she shared that moment, no one else had notice.

"You make me glow, but I cover up won't let it show, so I'm puttin my defences up. Cause I don't wanna fall in love. If I ever did that I think I'd have a heart attack."

She saw her girls cheering and singing along with her. Temari hated singing in front of people, that's why she had a few drinks before she came on. This way she had loosen up and it didn't bother her much.

"The feelings are lost in my lungs. They're burning, I'd rather be numb. And there's n one else to blame. So scared I take off in a run. I'm flying too close to the sun. And I burst into flames."

Shikamaru was part to blame as well. He was keeping her from running of stage by drawing her attention on him.

"You make me glow, but I cover up won't let it show. So I'm puttin my defences up. Cause I don't wanna fall in love. If I ever did that. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack. I think I'd have a heart attack."

When the song ended Temari came back to take her place next to Shikamaru. They shared a quick kiss and Ino cooed over this, her best friends were together and she was happy for them.

"One, two, three, Uh! My baby don't mess around. Because she loves me so." RockLee gave little dance moves as he sang the song. 'Hey Ya by Outkast'. This made Tenten slap her forehead and shake her head, she had seen this dance routine countless of times, this song was perfect for Lee as well in her opinion. It was kind of goofy and cocky like he was in that awkward way.

As he sang his song he began remembering how things use to be before. The good old days when everyone had a crush but was still just friends and nothing else, those days were fun and less complicated.

They had some really good times doing some stupidest things. He admired the way they all stuck it through together till the very end. All the trips they had together, the ups and the down's they shared.

Like the time he and Sasuke had fought because Sasuke had made Sakura cry. Yet still Sakura had scold at him for picking a fight with Sasuke, though she had scold Sasuke for fighting him back.

Naruto had tried to stop them from fighting and Lee had knocked him out with one move. Or the time Naruto and Kiba had fight because Naruto made Hinata cry. Neji would have been part of that but he had his own problems with Tenten.

"For sticking two together. Cause we don't know how...Uh1' hey...ya. hey..ya. hey..ya."

RockLee could remember how it was when he had just started school. He had no friends, no one liked him, and some even made fun of him. His first friend of course was Neji; it was because of a project he had with him, Sakura and Choji.

At first Sakura and Choji had call him bushy brows and laughed at him. But over the time he and Neji made friends with each other and Neji had stood up for him. Then he made friends with Tenten, the only girl in the school that could race with him. They became his best friends and then the others started coming in.

"We got together, Oh we got together."

Lee could see all his friends had grown in some way. Even if it's the smallest of detail in them, they all have grown in some way. Kiba has stopped being a big flirt, Choji lost some weight. Shikamaru who claimed he'd never fall in love was now crazy about Temari. Sasuke had finally man-up and told Sakura how he felt about her.

Even Suigetsu got over his fear of not treating Karin right as a boyfriend. Hinata didn't stutter anymore unless she was scared. Things were finally changing for the best and Lee learnt change was sometimes for the best. Change didn't always have to be scary and bad.

"Hey...ya (oh oh) Hey ya. (oh oh)."

Lee glanced at his friend's faces and saw how happy they all seemed. He was happy that they were his friends and he'd never trade them for anything or anyone. They were all special and he knew he was blessed to have them as friends his best of friends.

...

When Lee was finished the waiter brought their dinner for them. Next up was Naruto and Hinata singing. 'Two is better than one by Boys like girls ft Taylor Swift.' Hinata was bummed out about singing a single on her own and Naruto decided it'll be nice to sing with her.

The group agreed to this and the girls thought it was sweet of him to do this for his girlfriend.

Naruto: "I remember what you wore on the first day. You came into my life and I thought hey. You know, this could be something."

Naruto looked into Hinata's eyes as he sang every word. This made her heart skip beat and her face heat up. She felt so loved, never had she thought that she'd be with the guy she loved singing such a romantic song on their graduation day.

Naruto: "Cause everything you do and word you say. You know that it all takes my breath away. And now I'm left with nothing."

Both of them sang to each other: "So maybe it's true that I can't live without you. And maybe two is better than one. But there's so much time to figure out the rest of my life. And you've got me coming undone. And I'm thinking two is better than one."

Chieri whispered to Itachi and then the two got up and started slow dancing. The other girls were in overload by feelings, the romance was too much to handle.

Hinata: "I remember every look upon your face."

Naruto: "The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste. You make it hard for breathing."

Both of them: "Cause when I close my eyes and drift away. I think of you and every thing's okay. I'm finally now believing, that maybe it's true that I can't live without you. And maybe two is better than one. But there's so much time to figure out the rest of my life. And you've already got me coming undone. And I'm thinking two is better than one."

Naruto and Hinata walked closer to each other and raised their palms up to press them together. They were left palm to left palm, so close to each other, love shinning in their eyes. Matsuri wrapped her hands around Gaara's chest and squealed.

Hinata and Naruto plus Chieri and Itachi were being so romantic. Sakura glanced as Sasuke to see that he was looking as her awith small smile; she leaned in and kissed him before turning back to the couple on stage.

Naruto: "I remember what you wore on the first day. You come into my life and I thought, hey (hey, hey)"

Hinata smiled at Naruto and they both sang: "Maybe, it's true that I can't live without you. Maybe two is better than one. There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life. And you've already got me coming undone."

Sakura smiled at the two, she was happy for them.

Both sang: "And I 'm thinking, ooh, I can't live without you. Cause baby, two is better that one. There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life. But I'll figure out with al that's said and done. Two is better than one, two is better that one."

They finished with a kiss and the crowd of people and their friends were left in awe. Hianta touched her graduation gift from Naruto. A chain with her name on it, she had a special gift for him. She was going to give herself to him.
