I'd never been one to be late to anything not anything ever, plays, concerts, birthday parties you name it I was on time for it.
I arrived at Shika with what looked like a crowd on people waiting outside his front door.
"Hey Sasuke you're here at last!" yelped Naruto as the blonde ran up to me.
"Erm, yeah but what's with all the people…?" I asked,
"Word got out you were singing, so that dumb fan club of yours demanded to watch" I peered around Naruto and I noticed they were all girls…. "Let's get inside before some one causes a riot, don't worry Shika was only allowed a max of six people in his house, mum's law apparently" I shook my head slightly I some times felt Mary with my very own flock of sheep! Followed where ever I went, Times a wasting, inside I went following Naruto through the Naru residence till we reach a short spiral stair case leading to a loft conversion
"Sasuke, you're one troublesome guy, we've been waiting ages it's been a drag waiting all that time" was the first comment I got of Shika,
"Be quiet, I had something personal to attend to" I growled, Choji, Shika's best friend was sat at a set drums sitting patiently, there was a bass guitar and that other one I can never remember the name of,
"Imma be on bass" said Naruto in a childish manner as if to be proud, Shika didn't say what he was playing he just picked it up, big meanie I wanted to remember the name of his instrument,
"So what are these guys doing?" I asked pointing to Neji and Kiba accompanied by Akamaru
"You lot are taking it in turn singing, Kiba wants to do heavy, Neji wanted to do some thing lighter. Another thing is, because you're late we all voted you sung first" chuckled Naruto
"Wha…!" I yelped, I didn't want to go first I felt silly, stupid…embarrassed…if I thought about it, I couldn't get any more embarrassed after seeing my brother in the bath…
"Heh, Sasuke's blushing" laughed Kiba; I gave my clan's special unique glare, swearing at him mentally. He stopped, but I caught a small chuckle under his breath,
"Let's start now, Sasuke when you're ready I need you to tell us what song you want to sing" said Shikamaru
"Hmm…I hadn't really thought of a song" I stopped to ponder I little till eventually I came up with one,
"Sorry Choji, but we won't be needed you much for this, if at all…
My Guardian Angel – Red Jumpsuit apparatus"
"Sweet. Let's do it" said Naruto, Shika counted me in and after he reached 3, I begun after Naruto and Shika started playing the intro
"When I see your smile…tears run down my face.
And now that I am stronger, I have figured out this world colder in a place in my soul and I know, I will find deep inside me, I can be the one.
I will never let you go, I'll never let you fall, I'll stand up for you for ever
I'll be there for you through it all, even if saving you sends me to heaven.
Its okay
Its okay
It's ok-a-k-a
Seasons are changing and are waves are crashing; stars are crashing all for us!
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter.
I can show you I'll be the one.
I will never let you go, I'll never let you fall, I'll stand up for you for ever
I'll be there for you through it all, even if saving you sends me to heaven.
'Cos you're my….you're my….my-i-i-i
My true love. My whole heart, please don't through that away.
'Cos I've been here for you!
Please don't walk away!
Please tell me you'll stay!!" by the Choji joined in at the slightly heavier moment. I didn't think I was getting the lyrics completely right…
"Yeaaah! Whoa-o-o-oho, stay-ay-ay, whoa-oa-oo-ooooo-oo
You speed us you will, pulls my strings just for a drill,
Now I will be okay now my skies are turning grey!
I will never let you go, I'll never let you fall, I'll stand up for you for ever
I'll be there for you through it all, even if saving you sends me to heaven!
I will never let you go, I'll never let you fall, I'll stand up for you for ever
I'll be there for you through it all, even if saving you sends me to heaven..."
I softly faded out
There it was, me singing from my heart with the passion that grew stronger each sentence I sang, I was then applauded by the guys around me,
"That was Beautiful!" exclaimed Naruto; I blushed ever so slightly – dare Kiba say anything –
"Naruto as blonde as he may be, is right that was amazing you should really consider a career in singing,
"My Turn!" yelped Kiba, this should be fun I laughed in my head. "And I choose we play 'Numb' by Linkin Park!" he declared (AN: - sorry I don't know any Japanese songs, I have one buts it's been translated into English – boo x3) I sat at the side of Neji who even gave me a grin, it made me shivered the pupil less weirdo.
"ONE TWO THREE!" yelled Kiba, like before the three instrument player began the intro and we waited for Kiba's queue,
"I tired being of being what you want me to be, feeling so faithless, lost under the surface…
Don't know what you are expecting of me, put under the pressure of walking in your shoes.
Ever step that I take is anther mistake to you
I've become so numb! I can feel you there!" Kiba wasn't a bad singer once he got into it, he enjoyed it as much as Akamaru enjoyed walks (AN: - I'm lazy, I had listen these bloody songs over and over again to get the lyrics, LOL! After guardian angel it just got painful =;=) Neji made me and Kiba look like some sort of superstar of gentle or heavy rock after he sang 'I Just died in your arms tonight – Cutting Crew' still it was nice I didn't know he had it in him Puaha.
After the season I wanted to go home, have some milk and sit in front of the T.V for the rest of the night with my brother. It had been a very long and couldn't wait to sit beside him cuddling up to him like I used when I was ten.
*Flash back – I was ten*
I was creeping around the house late at night, I had a rough time trying to sleeping, it wasn't long before I was noticed,
"Sasuke…? It that you…?" I didn't want to answer in case I was yelled at for being out of bed after hours, "Common I know you're there" he said, he had ears like a bat I swear he did! I peered around the living room door to see my brother sat on our lumpy brown sofa still watching T.V so late. And without turning to me, he spoke,
"What makes you wonder around at this time Little Brother…?" he asked me. A little ashamed I bit my bottom lip before muttering my reply,
"I had a bad dream Tachi…" I whined, his head turned to me, his piercing black eyes stuck on me,
"Is that so…?" he asked, I nodded slowly, "Why don't you come up here and tell me about it, it'll make you feel better" like a nervous animal I approached Itachi, he picked me up onto his knee where I rested my head against him,
"I…had a bad about…the time mother and father passed away…" I said, Itachi was sort of silent on that subject, instead he embraced me in a brotherly way, "I pictured as if I was saw what happened to them…" I continued.
"It's hard on you, I know Sasuke but one day you'll come to terms with it…rest here till you feel you drop off again…" he said, I nodded while snuggling into my brothers shirt. Seconds later I felt some thing small and wet patter down my neck, I discreetly looked up watching Itachi shed a tear. I didn't say anything.
*End flash back*
(AN: - they'll probably be a lot of flash backs :/)
After that night I tired my very best for the past five years not to mention our parent's death because I knew it brought the memory worse back to Itachi.
Back home Itachi was back on his sofa, carefully moulded to this muscular body,
"Afternoon Sasuke, have fun at your friends house…?" he asked me noticing me walk into the room, I told you he had bat ears.
"Good thank you brother" I said averting my eyes away from him, just the look of him was enough to make my cheeks glow.
"Dinner will be on the table in 10 minutes, we're having liver today" he said, Itachi wasn't a bad cook, good thing too liver could give you food poisoning if it is not cook enough!
It wasn't long before dinner was ready, it smelt great, the liver with side orders of fries. Sadly I felt like wasting mine prodding at it saying go on eat it, he made it for you.
"I can tell there's some thing wrong with you Sasuke, what's troubling you…?" my brother asked me. I hid my face with my locks of hair that hung down,
"Nothing…" I muttered,
"Eat up then, you'll need you strength little one for school and running from those girls" grinned Itachi.
"Don't know what you mean Tachi" I said,
"My, I haven't heard you call me that for a few years" he said, again with the whole blush thing, to be honest it was annoying me. "Some is bothering you I could always tell when you was little when you were troubled and still can even though you have grown up some what" there was no escaping this he could tell when I was lying too, I couldn't win… my heart thumped aggressively against my chest "Sasuke….?" I heard Itachi say, my vision went blurry until it just went
THUD!
I knew I hit the ground, having passed out, hearing the final words,
"Sasuke…! Sasuke are you okay!?"
