"OH MY GOD!"
"It's him isn't it!"
"MINNA! MINNA! HE'S HERE! HE'S REALLY HERE!"
"UCHIHA SASUKE!!!!"
Ebony eyes squeezed shut in exhaustion as the owner's legs started running from rabid fan girls of all ages. Including Uchiha Sasuke new female teachers who are at least 30 years old.
'I will kill him. Neji you fucking moron! This is the last time I follow your advice!'
Running through corridors of lockers and classrooms he doesn't notice that a blond, nerdish creature is backed up into a locker from the fan girls, wondering what have happened to his music academy, Konoha Music Academy.
Uzumaki Naruto sighed as his thin glasses started sliding down his nose, his blond hair plastered onto his sky blue eyes. Fiddling with all his books in his arm, freeing an arm, Naruto flicked back his hair and pushed his dainty glasses up his sweating nose. Struggling, he reached into his pocket and swiped his key card to his room.
Of course once he entered his room, sweating his whole body from carrying and balancing his homework had no purpose as the books fell onto the floor.
Uzumaki Naruto, at the moment, was extremely ticked off.
Already boiling mad, the heat added to his anger level including what he saw before him.
"WHAT IN THE FRIGGIN HELL ARE YOU DOING!" Naruto screamed.
Uchiha Sasuke was on the point of pulling his new knee length shorts down, already bare-chested, glistening with sweat. Looked up from his position he glared at the nerd.
"ARE YOU BLIND!" Naruto screamed again.
Calmly, Sasuke replied, "I thought I was roomed in a single."
Naruto was on the verge of going in crazy mode as this new person's cool demeanour radiated in gigantic waves, "YOU ARE FRIGGIN BLIND! THERE IS ANOTHER BED IN THIS ROOM. THIS SHOULD AT LEAST POINT OUT THAT YOU ARE NOT IN A SINGLE ROOM!" Hastily picking up all his books Naruto threw them all down on his pristine bed.
"Fine." Naruto evilly glared at his new roommate's glossy rooster shaped hair as it bobbed all the way to the joint bathroom, quietly closing the wooden door behind him.
As Naruto walked to his closet to find a clean set of clothes, pulling back the wooden door he found a graffiti acoustic guitar staring back at him, leaning against his own clean, acoustic guitar. Graffitied clearly in magic marker, 'Uchiha Sasuke' was definitely not supposed to be in his closet. Slamming the closet door, Naruto wheezingly breathed, whispering a sentence he told himself for the past few years that he has been at Konoha Music Academy.
"This is not my day. This is not my day. THIS is not MY day…"
"Blah bleh blup bupe-"
"Hey, Mikodi. Shut up already."
"As I said before Bleh blah blah!" Mikodi Yumi stuck her tongue out in protest as her enemy Haruno Sakura passed her by in the main recital room.
"Again with the insults Yumi-chhhaaannn?"
Yawningly Yumi answered to her nerdish friend, "Instead of insulting I resorted to annoying her Na-ru-to-kun."
Naruto sighed at the added suffix and pronounciation of his name and plopped down beside her in the comfy cinema like chairs.
"Isn't it your turn yet for the auditions?" Naruto glanced at Yumi as she started laughing her ass off at the performer's blunder, which happened to be a possie of her archenemy.
"Yeah yeah. I'm after this idiot. You got a good one this semester?"
Naruto grinned like a fox at her and nodded enthusiastically. Yumi replied with a grin of her own.
"Wipe them off the floor!"
"…Hon
no sukoshi utagau toki dou suru no
Mou usotsuki demo I love
you
Soba ni itai yo zutto zutto …"
Sasuke crept into the main recital hall and noticed his roommate sitting in the back bobbing his head to the music. Quietly walking through the aisle and getting a quite motion from Naruto, Sasuke sat down and watched the performer continue singing an Utada Hikaru song.
"Kandouteki
ni owaru story hajimari wa
Ano hi kimi ga itta I love
you
Machikirenai yo kouhan second half…"
Sasuke nudged Naruto softly and started whispering.
"Who is she?"
Naruto stopped bobbing and smiled sincerely, "Mikodi Yumi. She's in our year and cough my friend."
Naruto snorted when he saw Yumi not-so-secretly give the finger to the pinked haired, green-eyed Haruno Sakura in the front row.
"Senrosoi
hashiridasu kage ni furikaeru
Ano hi kimi ga itta I love
you
Oikakechau yo zutto zutto…"
She finished the song by some small dancing to the catchy guitar riff. As she walked back to Naruto, Yumi rudely pulled a face at Sakura and her possie and happily shook the next performer's hand, Hyuuga Hinata.
"Oh hello you must be the famous Uchiha Sasuke everyone is gossiping about. How is everyone else from your band?" Yumi sat down to the empty seat beside Sasuke and took out a sandwich from her school bag.
"You were good up there."
Totally forgetting what she said before and with a mouthful already filled with pork sandwich she replied disgustingly, "tthahnkyooouu."
Naruto revolted in disgust as Yumi loudly gulped down the rest of the sandwich.
The three of them clapped half heartedly at Hyuuga Hinata's performance and Sasuke stared bewilderedly at Yumi as she started booing the bubblegum pink haired girl who just stepped up on the stage holding her fluorescent pink acoustic guitar.
"You're
giving me too many things
Lately you're all I need
You smiled
at me and said..."
Yumi just booed louder and started throwing taunts, ignoring all who glared at her including the head music teacher.
"You stupid Biatch! Stuff up! I dare you! Stuff up just like four years ago! BOOOO!"
Sasuke looked weirdly to Yumi as she followed her tantrum.
"Wish
I could prove I love you
But does that mean I have to walk on
water?
When we are older you'll understand
It's enough when I
say so
And maybe some things are that simple..."
"Sakura, the girl up there is the schools diva," Naruto started to explain, "and her aunt owns the school's sponsorship which is a record deal with her aunt's label. "
Sasuke nodded, a sign for Naruto to continue.
"Four years ago the 2nd semester recital, she partied with her aunt the night before and met all these musicians, artists, bands, etc. And the next day you know it, lack of sleep caused her to be ranked lowest on the recital list. Of course being the school diva as she is, she had to bring someone down with her. Sadly she picked Yumi."
Yumi abruptly stopped her tantrum and stared at her blue-eyed friend.
"What you say about me?!"
Naruto shrugged and quickly dodged a blind punch, "Anger management please."
"The song that bitch is playing now, I was supposed to be playing for my 2nd semester recital audition four years ago. As Naruto said, she brought me down with her. Even in her sleepy state she was awake enough too snip my guitar strings to the point of snapping and filling the sound hole with rotten food. When I started to play I had two deep slices up my arm because of the guitar strings snapping the moment I strummed the first chord."
'Now that is cruel.' Sasuke thought as he turned his attention to Sakura on stage.
"Hold
me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later
on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at
all
Nothing's like before."
The booing continued from Yumi as Sakura finished the song and the head music teacher called out for Naruto.
"Uzumaki Naruto playing Rage your dreams on piano."
Yumi's booing suddenly turned into cheers as Naruto slowly climbed out of the chair and walked sourly onto the stage. As he sat before the grand piano, Sakura's possie of girls and boys started to boo.
As soon as Naruto's hands touched the piano keys, Sasuke was amazed at the talent he emitted.
"You are gob smacked are you not, Sasuke?"
Yumi would have laughed out loud at his expression if Naruto wasn't performing at that very moment.
"Naruto can play any instrument you put in front him. All the bad comments he is getting now, he had ever since he came to this school."
Sasuke was still trying to get himself off the floor as the booing and the negative comments got louder as Naruto continued to play.
"He purposely plays bad except examinations such as the recitals. Jealousy is such a horrible thing."
Thumping sounds echoed throughout the gigantic recital hall as an extremely large group arose from their seats and headed towards the exit.
"I think you should sit on the floor. Sakura's possie is exiting the hall."
Sasuke was smart enough to make himself 'one with the floor'.
Naruto was getting to the end of the song until a scream echoed through the hall.
A body fell from the stage railing from the top and landed, disgracefully on top of Naruto.
Yumi swung her head to the exit and glared long and hard to the back of Haruno Sakura and in a very harsh tone said, "You are going to regret that you stupid fucking bitch!"
Sakura ignored Yumi's threat and turned around, evilly smirking at Naruto who was bewildered and still underneath the stilled body.
"Uzumaki Naruto. As long as I control this school and as long as I hate you…"
Naruto gingerly pushed the body off him and intently gazed at her.
Before Sakura left the hall with her possie she said something so despicable that Yumi had to be held back by Sasuke before she murders her. The unconscious body beside him, Naruto never felt so alone on the stage.
"Uzumaki. You are nothing."
