A/N: I've read somewhere that one should never write after a song/poem, as everything that could be said have been said in that song/poem already. Is it right or wrong? I do not know.


Going under

"Sasuke! Sasuke!" Naruto bumped into Sasuke, not being able to stop his running.

"Damn, Naruto, can you not run around screaming?" Sasuke, having fallen on one knee, stood up and now was brushing himself off. Naruto shrugged.

"No, you have to hear it!" he shoved Sasuke his black iPod and without making a stop continued babbling. "It's fabulous! No, no it's awesome! Awesome song! You have to hear it, it's like about you and me!" He forcefully put an earphone into Sasuke's ear and smacked the 'play' button.

'Now I will tell you, what I've done for you,

Fifty thousand tears I've cried.

Screaming, deceiving and bleeding for you,

And you – still won't hear me!'

Sasuke realized right away that he did not like this song. He stared at Naruto, with closed eyes singing happily along with hoarse female voice and wondered if he had been right at his choice of a boyfriend.

"I'm going under! Mmm… I'm falling forever! Eh? Sasuke? Where are you? Eh? Eh?"


The next seven days were a nightmare.

By Sunday even Kakashi contemplated the idea of killing not only Naruto, but Iruka as well, as the chuunin sensei was the one to buy him that blasted iPod and get him Evanescence 'Fallen' album downloaded.

Naruto was walking around singing, if not singing, then humming, if not humming, then whistling. If he talked to anyone, he'd quote the darn lyrics whenever possible (and, unfortunately, impossible as well). Like:

"Hey! Are you listening to me? Hello, I'm your mind!"

By Sunday Sasuke was: first, very sad about the fact he had let Naruto drag him back to Konoha fro Orochimaru; second, very much sexually frustrated, as the said idiot never stopped thinking about the fucking band and every time he started humming a tune during foreplay, Sasuke's hard on would stop being that hard.

On Sunday they all – including former teams 8 and 9 and team Gai – went on a picnic. Accidentally, there was a river nearby and soon they all ended swimming. Afterwards Sasuke, followed by Ino and Sakura, and later – everyone else except for Naruto, rested on a towel, brooding. It wasn't much later than they could hear Naruto wailing in the river: "I'm going under!"

"He has disastrous voice, don't you think, Ino?" Sakura asked lazily, not sparing a glance at Naruto's side.

"You're wrong," Ino replied, "his voice is pretty nice, he just doesn't know how to sing."

"Help! I'm going under!"

"Mmmm, no, his voice is awful. Can't you see the screeching notes? He can be good if he concentrates more…"

Sasuke noted absentmindedly, that Naruto's voice is best when he… okay, forget it.

"Going-gulp!"

"Oh, he shut up! Wonderful. Want to play cards, Sakura, Sasuke-kun?"


Naruto, betrayed by his one and only band, was floating down the river, having been paralyzed by mutated fish.
