“I can’t see you anymore.”
As soon as these words dropped from the blonde’s lips, Neji dropped his head.
“Why?” He asked, looking at the tops of his shoes. “What did I do?”
“You didn’t do anything.” Naruto said, trying to keep a hold on himself.
Neji’s head snapped back up, and he looked angry.
“Don’t give me that ‘Its not you, its me’ bullshit Naruto, because I am not going to fall for it. I didn’t do anything wrong, and you are just pushing me away because of what happened to you.”
“That has nothing to do with this.” Naruto lied.
“Don’t fucking lie to me.” Neji said, his voice slowly rising. “You don’t think I know? This is a time when you need to have people who care around you, not push them away!”
“It isn’t about that!” Naruto yelled, his blue eyes flashing. “I just don’t want to be with you anymore!” After he said this, he turned away from Neji.
“I don’t know what is going through your head Naru, but once you clear it, you will realize that you just made a huge mistake.” Neji’s voice sounded more hurt than angry, but he turned around and walked out the door, slamming it behind him.
“NARUTO!” Tsunade yelled from her bedroom. “What in the HELL is going on out there?”
“Nothing, go back to bed.” He said, walking back toward his room, holding his books tightly against his chest.
“It’s not a mistake.” He said to himself, sitting down at his desk to do his homework.
Five minutes into it, he threw his pencil across the room in frustration. He just couldn’t concentrate. He went to his bed and grabbed his television remote. He turned it to the news, and what he saw there nearly gave him a heart attack.
“And in other news, Sasuke Uchiha, from the hit band Kyuubi no Kitsune, fled the stage during a concert the other night, leading to a riot unprecedented in Denver. The death toll is at 8, but bodies continue to be found as the wreckage is cleared.
Kyuubi no Kitsune, or KNK, as they are known by their cult following, broke into the scene last summer with their now multi-platinum CD, Akatsuki...”
Naruto changed the channel, his hands were shaking so badly he dropped the remote. So, Sasuke Uchiha was famous. Naruto had no idea. Kyuubi no Kitsune wasn’t a band that Naruto would normally listen to, but now that he thought about it, he could remember seeing people at school wearing band shirts, and talking about the band.
He went back over to his desk and switched his computer on. While he waited for it to boot, he thought about Uchiha running off stage. Was it because of him? Fuck that, if he was the kind to be guilty, he wouldn’t have done what he did.
Naruto pulled up his net, and ran a search on the band name.2,430 results. He clicked the band’s official page. A bright orange fox with nine tails was on the first page. He clicked that to take him into the site. He clicked on “Band” and it took him to pictures of the members. First was Sasuke, and he felt his body go cold as he looked at the picture of the lead singer/ guitarist. The cold black eyes stared back at him, and he quickly scrolled down.
His jaw dropped. There was the vampire from his dream! Itachi Uchiha, drummer. Sasuke’s brother? ‘Why the hell was that guy in my dream? I have never even seen him before.’ Naruto thought, more than a little unnerved. But was that true? Certainly Itachi’s face had been somewhere he could have seen it. On shirts, or bags, or whatever. It wasn’t like the other kids at school hadn’t flaunted this band. In fact he was sure he knew someone who would have the CD, now that he thought of it.
He grabbed his phone and dialed up one of his friend’s numbers.
“Hello?”
“Hey, it’s Naruto.”
“Okay.”
“Well...I wanted to know...”
“Yes?”
“Do you have a CD by a band called Kyuubi no Kitsune?”
“Yes.”
“You do? Do you think I could borrow that for a day or two?”
“How troublesome. You only call me when you want something.”
“That isn’t true Shikamaru.” Naruto said.
“It isn’t huh?” Shikamaru said into the phone. “Well then, are you aware you didn’t even ask how I was?”
“I’m sorry.” Naruto said. “I am just having a rough time at the moment.”
“Me too, actually. I skipped school yesterday to go to Denver for the concert, and the fucking concert didn’t even happen.”
“You...were there?” Naruto asked. “What happened?”
“Well, Sasuke just froze.” Shikamaru said. “Actually, it’s a good thing he hadn’t picked up is guitar yet, because when he ran off stage, it woulda dragged everything.”
“What?” Naruto asked.
“Never mind. Hey, why so interested in KNK all of a sudden?”
“Uchiha Sasuke.”
“You think he is hot?” Shika asked, and Naruto could hear him smiling.
“Yeah.” Naruto lied. “He is hot.” Naruto felt sick saying it.
“Yeah.” Shika said.
“Well, so could I borrow the disc?” Naruto asked again.
“No, I don’t think so.” Shika said. “Why don’t you just download the songs?”
“Because that isn’t legal.”
“Oh shut up.” Shika said.
“Well, will you burn it for me?” Naruto asked.
“That, I can do.” Shika said, “But you are going to have to pick it up.”
“FIne, I will be over in a few minutes.”
“Ok then.”
There was a loud click, as Shikamaru turned the phone off. Naruto had never really understood him. He was a genius...beyond genius. Number 108 of 140 in the class, because he thought it was better to hack computers, and sleep than do any school work.
Naruto pulled on some clothes and shoes. He went into the bathroom and brushed his teeth. Looking at himself in the mirror, he was rather surprised to see that he was dressed very drab. As someone who always looked his absolute best, even not buttoning his over shirt was a big deal. His blonde, stood up in angry spikes, and he ran his fingers through it, spiking it up more.
A few minutes later, he walked out the front door, and started down the road. Shika lived just at the end of the street, so it would only take about five minutes to walk there. In fact, a lot of his classmates lived on his street. Hinata Hyuuga, Neji’s cousin, lived right across the street. Shino Aburame lived three doors down, Lee Rock lived down the other way. They were friends, but at the same time, not. He saw them in school, and they were his age, but they didn’t really hang around together. Naruto was what they would all call...a preppy fag.
Not that they held his homosexuality against him, Hell, nobody cared that he was gay, half the people in his school were either gay or bisexual. It was the preppy-ness of him that had everyone shying away from him. Shikamaru had really been the exception. He didn’t really care about all those stereotypes. He was pretty much rude to everyone equally.
Naruto walked up Shika’s driveway and knocked on the door. It opened a crack, and a disc was held out by a hand.
“Hello Shikamaru.” Naruto said, a smile on his face. “Aren’t we just friendly today?”
“No more than usual.” Shika said, a small smile on his face.
“Thanks Shikamaru.” Naruto said taking the CD. “Well, I guess you aren’t wanting any company.”
“Troublesome.” Shika said, shutting the door.
Naruto smiled wider. Shika was so crazy. Well, apparently most geniuses were rather eccentric. He turned around and walked back toward his house. He looked down at the disc, and his heart began to pound in his chest. He didn’t want to listen to it, but he needed to.
******
Naruto lay in his bed. It was track 10, his favorite track. The music was flowing through his body, and the pain in the voice was cutting through him like a scalpel. Four hours of listening had let him learn the lyrics to most of the songs. He would close his eyes, and find himself quietly singing along.
There was so much pain in Sasuke’s voice. It was the pain that kept Naruto listening. It was the pain that called to him, and told him that he wasn’t that different from Sasuke.
Then the anger would fill him, because all of his pain came from Sasuke in the first place. It was too much for him to bear. He lay in bed, and his fists clenched. He reached over on his table and with a quick swipe, he pushed the cd player onto the ground, and silence filled the room. He sat up, his heart racing, his breathing heavy.
******
“I will make sure Sasuke Uchiha pays for what he did.” He said to nobody.
