After lunch we threw our trash away and headed to music. Glares were thrown our way from every direction.
Opening the door I looked around. Three people were turned away from me but I immediately knew who they were. Tearing away from my friends I crept up behind them. They didn't notice me until I jumped on them.
"Just couldn't stand being away could you," I giggled. Temari and Kankuro whirled to see me on Gaara's back. They screamed and tackled me to the ground. Landing on top of him I laughed. I glanced behind them to see my friends laughing. I'm glad they aren't angry that Gaara's here.
"Could you guys try not to crush her," Shikamaru asked.
The two of them jumped up, leaving me and Gaara on the floor. I moved to let him sit up behind me and watched Tem. She looked away from Shika blushing. I smell a new relationship here.
"So what are you guys doing here," I asked tearing Temari's attention from my friend.
"Dad made us move here. He's hell bent on you marrying Gaara," Kankuro said.
"Over my dead body," Kiba growled.
Gaara sprung up, pulling me with him. He pushed me behind him saying, "And who are you people to say what we do?" They all bristled preparing for a fight.
"Relax. We will all discuss it later," I said as the bell rang. Kurenai walked in as kids scrambled for seats.
"How's my little star," she asked hugging me.
"I honestly haven't sang since I left," I whispered.
"Well then that has to change," she gasped. "Grab a mic."
"Fine," I said dropping my head. I went to the storage room to look for the microphone ignoring her introduction. I found the right one and walked back out. She looked over at me giving our unspoken signal to begin.
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house, that don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin on with you gone still upsets me
There are days
Every now and again I pretend I'm OK but that's not what gets me
What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowing, what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doing it
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder gettin up, gettin dressed, living with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart that I left unspoken
What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowing, what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
I'm not afraid to cry
Every once in a while even though goin on with you gone still upsets me
There are days
Every now and again I pretend I'm OK but that's not what gets me
What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowing, what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowing, what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
The only one that spoke was Sakura.
"Was that supposed to be good," she asked. Her eyes said one thing while her mouth said another. That pissed me off.
"I think I need to prove myself. Don't you, Aunt Kurenai?"
"I think not everyone knows how talented you are," she grinned.

I like your smile
I like your vibe
I like your style
But that's not why I love you
And I, I like the way
You're such a star
But that's not why I love you
Hey
Do you feel, do you feel me?
Do you feel what I feel, too?
Do you need, do you need me?
Do you need me?
You're so beautiful
But that's not why I love you
I'm not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we've been through
And that's why I love you
La la
La la la la
La la
La la la
I like the way you misbehave
When we get wasted
But that's not why I love you
And how you keep your cool
When I am complicated
But that's not why I love you
Hey
Do you feel, do you feel me?
Do you feel what I feel, too?
Do you need, do you need me?
Do you need me?
You're so beautiful
But that's not why I love you
And I'm not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we've been through
And that's why I love you
Yeah - Oh.
Oh.
Even though we didn't make it through
I am always here for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're so beautiful
But that's not why I love you
I'm not sure you know
That the reason I love you is you
Being you
Just you
Yeah the reason I love you is all that we've been through
And that's why I love you
La la
La la la la (oh oh)
La la
La la la (That's why I love you)

This time people clapped and cheered. You know the singer Harmonic Muse? Yeah, that's me. Only Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro know and they are sworn to secrecy.
"How would you like Harmonic Muse to perform at our school?" Kurenai asked. I almost dropped my mic. No one has known that was me and now she's going to blow my cover. I looked at Gaara for help but he seemed just as conflicted as I was.
"That would be amazing!"
"Let's do it!"
"She's like, my idol!"
After class I was confronted by Sasuke and the others.
"Why were you so freaked out that Kurenai mentioned Harmonic Muse?" he asked.
"Only the teachers know because Uncle Kakashi and Uncle Gai couldn't keep their mouths shut," I started. I looked around for an empty classroom and motioned them inside.
"I'm Harmonic Muse." I closed my eyes and waited for their response.
"Are you serious," Neji asked.
"Why wouldn't I be serious?" I practically yelled.
"Calm down Harmony," Kiba said softly. "Tell us what happened."
"It started when I was in Suna. I was singing in the shower when Temari barged in. I wouldn't have gotten anywhere without her. But now I think it could ruin everything. I just want one normal year without performing. But now that Kurenai has said something then I guess I have to do it."
"That would explain the extra security," Shino commented.
"I have no idea what to do," I said sinking to the floor. Ino dropped to her knees and took my hands in hers.
"We will be right there with you. From what I can tell though, I think you need a band."
"You're serious about this?" I asked.
"Of course. We would help in any way we can," Lee said.
Taking a deep breathe I stood up. "All right but things go my way. Don't breathe a single word about this. If you want to talk about something then send a text. I'm a perfectionist. This means that you guys need to work your asses off," I said smiling slightly.
