Yo! Anyways I actually suprised that I got this done early. You see I never really got a computer ( not really mine) until today soo that's why it took me longer. It also took me longer because I had finals this week, not because i was really busy with the finals, i actually had a lot of time after finishing the each test ( my longest test was only 100 quections... easy) the bad part was I typed it on my Ipod so... I had to keep looking back and fort to type this. Then i had to add more because... well a small screen makes you actually look like you did a lot. Yay GOOD FUCKIN' JOB! stupid screen make me feel all good and then let me down. *Grumble gumble grumble* Hinata disclaimer please *Grumble grumble grumble*
Hinata: L-lIZ D-doesn't o-own Naruto...I DO!;D
Liz:Hina, One more thing please (pass a paper)
Hinata: Liz would also like to thank her reviewers for reviewing... unfourtunantly the Liz-baka accidently deleted them off her e-mail adress soo yeah...
Liz: You know your OOC-ness Can make people really feel bad..(sigh) On with the story.
"Umm Ino would you like to tell me where we're going" I ask the blonde for the umpteenth time. We go on for a few more seconds before she makes a complete stop in front of a gated walk way. Ino looks up once again to press a button- the intercom I assume- and turns back to me before saying...
"Sakura I'm going to introduce you to the rest of my friends. I think you'll fit in just fine with us." I give a quick nod before she mutters "crazy, hyper, lazy, stoic music lovers."
"Huh" I give her a questioning look. It's not that I didn't hear what she was saying. She muttered, or in her case spoke pretty clearly. What got me was the 'crazy, hyper, lazy, stoic' part, but apparently she thought otherwise.
"Your guitar, you like to play right?"
"yup yup" I reply poping the 'p', in my head thought I'm saying
'Noo, I'm just carrying a guitar because I like to carry a few extra pounds on my back, as a matter of fact, I add a couple more pounds by stuffing it with cookies.' I mentally roll my eyes.
'plus it makes you look awesome' inner states while putting a little more enfesses on the word 'awesome'.
'and no one is talking to you'
"Great, now come on" she says pulling me into the now open gate
-inside
"Wow" that was an understatement. "This place is huge!" I mean considering that the outside was fairly big 'practically the size of my house', looks like some renovations were made but still looks almost like mine.
"who's house is this?" I ask Ino finally looking at her.
"Sasuke" she replies casually before grabbing hold of my wrist and leading me into one of the two hallway on the side of the stairs. "come on our group hangs over here" she says reaching for a door.
"But what about over there" I say for amusement, while pointing to a random door. Ino rolls hers eyes at my childish-ness before replying.
"That's the Akatsuki's hang out room, Sasuke's brother Itachi and his friends hang there"
"Someone calling me?" Ino and I turn back to the door I pointed at to see a guy black hair with a dark blue tint to it pulled back into a low pony tail and deep black onyx eyes.
'Woo hottie alert!' inner pops out
'He looks familiar, but your right! Talk about sexy!' Then, it clicked to me
"Hey your that kid I woke up this morning while playing my guitar."
'He looks a bit older though' He turns his attention to me with a raised eyebrow.
"A kid I am not, I am certainly older than you and also, I don't recall seeing you before, I would have remember a girl with pink hair."
'Of course, funny how people always have to point out my hair'
"But-"
"Hey Itachi whats taking you so long" Behind the said man comes another one 'go figure' with blue hair! Sharp teeth! And blue skin? 'The fuck?' The blue man or 'sharky'- is my new nickname for him- looks at me before saying.
"Well well who do we have here." Sharky says.
"Funny, I never did get to her name" Itachi replies without taking his gaze off of me.
"Hey pinkie, what's your name" A vein on my forehead pops out (anime style) 'pinkie, really!'
'well you called him him sharky so...'
'point taken, although I didn't say it out loud'
"Sakura" I grit through my teeth
"It suits" Itachi replies while sharky nods to agree with him
"Thanks" 'No shit'
"I'm Itachi"
"And I'm Kisame"
"I prefer skarky" I muttered
"What?" kisame asks with a hint of anger
"Nothing! Bye Itachi, Bye Sharky" and with that I grab Ino and open the door that her hand was still on closing it behind us.
"Well... Good to know you can make friends quick" Ino looks to me while my hands are still on the door taking steady breaths.
"Ino what's with all the noise" A masculine voice says. I turn around to see a guy with shiny long brown hair and dazzling white pupil-less eyes. "Who Is she" he asks turning his attention to me.
"This 'she' is Sakura, Sakura this is Neji"
"Hey" I reply in a casual tone, but in truth I'm actually thinking, 'Omigosh, Omigosh, OMIGOSH! How many other hot guys are in this house?'
'So far 3'
"Well come on, let's meet the others" Ino says taking my hand and pulling me more into the room with Neji behind us. Getting a better look at the room now it's huge! On the wall to the right of the door was , What do you know, another door! A flat screen TV with a cable box and Xbox underneath the TV which by the way covered most of the wall . In the center of the room was a long black couch that curved on each side. In front of the couch was a glass table and two bean bags on each side. To the wall farthest to the door was a window and a small high table with four chairs that made it look like a tiny cafe. On the wall to the left was basically a small kitchen with a counter top, two small cupboards, a mini fridge and a microwave.
"Guys" Ino starts to say wile pulling me in between the glass table and TV.
"This is Sakura, say hi Sakura"
"Hi Sakura" I reply with an amused tone. Ino rolls her eyes again and smiles before saying "Sakura this is our group, from left to right on the couch is: Garra,'4' Temari, Kankuro,'5' Sai,'6' Sasuke,'7' Naruto,'8' choji'9' and Shikamaru '10! ding ding'. Then the brown hair girl on the bean bag is Tenten and the other is Hinata." I give a little wave before...
"Hey as you heard I'm Kankuro and your Hot" The said man says in a seductive voice. How did he get over here so fast?
"Leave the girl alone Kankuro" Temari, if I remembered correctly says while hitting Kankuro on the top of his head and dragging him to the couch. She then turns back around to me and says "Sorrry about my brother, hi I'm Temari, your new in this town aren't?"
"Well I am but my mom isn't. She live her when she was younger."
"Cool" I look to see who was talking when of a sudden.
"Where did you move from" Tenten says poping out right in front of me... Upside down.
"Suna"
"Cool, hey that's where those three are from. Aren't you guys?" Tenten says landing back on the floor to turn her attention to Temari, Kankuro and Garra. The three look up and Temari answers for them
"Yeah, but I don't remember every seeing you there. How long have you lived there?"
"Just last school year"
"Oh. Well that explains it. We left Suna last year" Temari say with a slightly upset smile "Geez, Can you imagine. If we stayed longer we would have most likely met you and became great friends." I smiled.
"Yeah I bet we would have" I like these guys I seem to feel very hopeful with them. As I look through my new group of friends, I study each and every characteristic they hold until I recognized a very, very familiar face. "Hey I know you" I say while pointing to the boy with chicken ass hair (heehee classic) 'Okay this time I'm positive it's him.'
"You know Sasuke already" Naruto spoke up "how?"
"Easy" Everyone looks to Sasuke who is speaking.
Sasuke's pov.
"She and her friend strapped to her back woke me up this morning" Everyone looks at me with a face that say to continue, so I sighed "She was on her guitar at a eight o' clock in the morning with her window open, which is right across from mine."
"Wait so you guys are neighbors" Shikamaru asks
"Oh Crap, then my house is right next door?" Sakura shouts out, which might I say she really shouldn't have. I look around to see everyone sweat drop.
"Wait, and you didn't even figure that out sooner even when we were walking down the same street that you live on" Ino says, *coughshoutscough*
"Well I really wasn't paying attention to where we were going. I was still worrying if you were going to try to kill me." Sakura replies shyly. Again that causes me to sweat drop.
"Killed, really" Temari says
"Yeah, funny... that's exactly what Ino said"
"Well... Does it look like Ino the type of person to kill" Tenten asks
"Well no but I mean come on anyone can, even if it's not intended" When I heard her say that I looked up at her pained expression" 'killing?' She couldn't have, no that look, looks more like someone close to her did something that she really shouldn't have seen or heard. I look around to see any expression that would show any clue as if they caught that idea and ended up making eye contact with Garra. We gave each other knowing nods to show its time to change the subject. So with that I look at Naruto to give him another nod to change the topic.
That's what I like about Naruto, he may be a really big idiot, but he understands me and knows how to care for others. " Well sakura, how about you show us what you can do on that guitar of yours." Naruto speaks up letting me relax and everyone else agree with the dobe.
"Sounds good but..."
"B-but, w-what S-sakura" Hinata stutters 'almost forgot she was here'
"Well, I'm not really good with crowds" Sakura states looking down, which cause me to raise an eyebrow.
"well that shouldn't be a problem, we could have a few people play with you" Neji replies.
"yeah pretty much everyone here plays an instrument some more than other like sai, kankuro, I are more involved in other things. Also Temari is more into dance, but other wise we're all into a fine-art."Choji speaks. I look to Sakura to see a small smile adorned on her face that makes my heart heart melt. Wait did I just say that...
"Okay" She replies. I stand up motioning for everyone to follow me and we head into the door next to the TV.
Sakura's Pov.
As Sasuke leads us into the next room I feel as if I'm about to hyperventilate. Like omigosh I can't do this. The last time I preformed was for a school play... in kindergarten...and I passed on stage. To calm my nerves I decide to look around sasuke's band room, which put me in total awe. The room was pretty much like a recording studio. The walls had soft reddish, orangish sponge on them, there was a couch and a couple of chairs scattered around and instruments were put in a stage like fashion: Drum set in back, guitars on right, basses on left and electric piano on far left. On the far right was a couple more instrument such as violins, trumpets, extra guitars, a grand piano, Etc.
"So is there a song you have in mind" Shikamaru ask while Hinata prepares the piano, Sasuke prepares his guitar, and Naruto sits himself behind the drums. Everyone else went to have a seat on the couch or chair.
"Umm, I have one song in mind" I say nervously.
"Well lets here it" Naruto yells energetically
"Dobe" I hear Sasuke mutter.
"Umm" I decide to whisper it to the band and the all give a nod. Sasuke counts off '2, 3, 4' before he, and Naruto start to immediately play followed by me, shikamaru and Hinata.
Just talk yourself up
and tear yourself down
You've hit your one wall,
now find a way around
Well whats the problem?
You've got a lot of nerve.
So what did you think I would say,
no you can't runaway, no you can't runaway.
So what did you think I would say,
no you can't runaway,no you can't runaway.
You wouldn't
I never wanted to say this.
You never wanted to stay.
I put my faith in you
so much faith and then you,
just threw it away.
You threw it away
I'm not so naive
my sorry eyes can see
The way you fly shy
of almost everything
well if you give up
you'll get what you deserve
So what did you think I would say,
no you can't runaway, no you can't runaway.
So what did you think I would say,
no you can't runaway,no you can't runaway.
You wouldn't
I never wanted to say this.
You never wanted to stay.
I put my faith in you
so much faith and then you,
just threw it away.
You threw it away
You were finished long before
we had even seen the start
why don't you stand up,
be a man about it?
Fight with your bare hands about it now
I never wanted to say this
you never wanted to stay,
whoa did you
I put my faith in you
so much faith and then you,
just threw it away.
I never wanted to say this
You never wanted to stay.
I put my faith in you
so much faith and then you,
just threw it away.
The song ends with a long streak curtsey of Sasuke. I look up to see my friends in a state of shock.
"Sakura. That. Was. Awesome!" Ino shrieked running up to me and pulling me into a tight hug. "How did you learn to sing like that?" I shrugged and everyone came to talk about it. From the corner of my eye I see Sasuke show a quick look of being impressed. We all decide to play and sing the rest of the day until it was time to leave. While heading out I realize how tired I am before I start the couple of feet.
"Hey Sakura." I turn around to see Sasuke walk up to me.
"Yes" My heart started pounding
"would you like to be in our band, we could a lead sing. I mean yeah we know how to sing but..."
"I'm just better than you" I reply
"Hn. What ever... You in"
"Sure" I reply before walking to my house
"I'm still better" Sasuke calls out
"Bye Sasuke" I say, getting the last word 'I think I'll wake him up tomorrow too.' I tell myself before opening the door to my house.
"Mom, I'm home" I call out as I close the door
"Hey, dinner's ready" mom says peaking out of the kitchen
"Great I hungry" I start to drinks while she sets the food on the plates and puts them on the table.
"So... How did it go, meet any hot guys?" I blush as mom starts the conversation
"It went really well. I made some new friends who like to play music just like me." I reply after chewing my food.
"That's great dear"
"Yeah, they even asked me to join their band, as their lead singer"
"Wonderful" and with that we finish our dinner with a little conversation here and there. Then I head off upstairs to shower and sleep. As I get into bed I think of all the great things that happened today. 'Maybe it won't be so bad here.' and with that in my head I drift off into a deep sleep, dream free.
Liz: Ya like?
Ino: Pretty good
Liz: you know your a pretty good converstion piece
Ino: Thanks, I get that alot
Liz: Yo Sasuke. Bro. You mind
