Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ It's Already Over ❯ On the Dance Floor ( Chapter 3 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Don't own Naruto, just the plot ok? This is fan fiction after all. Neither do I own the song here, they belong to their respective artists, Timbaland in this case.
 
 
 
On the Dance Floor
 
Shikamaru yelled into his microphone as he sat behind his DJ equipment and synthesizers.
 
“All right people! Let's make this a wild party!” He said as he selected a song from his list and played it.
 
The crowd cheered as they recognized it as the tune of “Stronger” by Kanye West and nearly all of them starting dancing on the dance floor as the multi coloured lights flashed randomly in the room.
 
Sakura entered through the front door and looked around. Her eyes sparkled excitedly as she recognized the music and she immediately walked over to the dance floor and started dancing. Slowly, the boys around her started to notice and many started to dance with or around her. Sakura in response flirted with the boys one after the other.

Naruto beamed at Sasuke in the wings of the stage.
 
“We'll be up in about three minutes! Oh man, this is awesome!” Naruto grinned.
 
Sasuke peaked out and saw everyone dancing enthusiastically. He noticed that there was a large crowd concentrated in the middle as well. Eyes slowly moving from one face to another, he gasped as he recognized the face of a certain pink haired girl. He felt his breath hitch in his throat as his heart fluttered slightly. Sasuke rubbed his neck as he composed himself, reverting back to his poker faced, expressionless demeanour. However, he could not resist another glance in the girl's direction. He could see that she was wearing a red, sleeveless top, a short black skirt that managed to show off her slender legs and long black boots. Sasuke grimaced as he felt himself go hot in the face and he mentally slapped himself.
 
`Get a grip on yourself, Sasuke. Concentrate on tonight's performance,' he scolded himself mentally.
 
Naruto noticed that Sasuke had gone slightly tense and tapped him on the shoulder.
 
“Hey, are you ok?”
 
Sasuke folded his arms and leaned against the wall. Casually, he asked in an offhand manner.
 
“What's up with all the guys crowding around that girl?”
 
Naruto glanced at the crowd. Spotting the aforementioned girl, he chuckled.
 
“Oh, that's Sakura. She's the friend I was going to introduce you to, remember? Yeah, she's the hottest and most popular girl in school, that's why all the guys are trying to hook up with her,” grinning slyly at Sasuke, he continued. “Unfortunately, she's taken already, although she loves flirting with other guys when her boyfriend's not around. Better luck next time Sasuke.”
 
The raven haired teen glared at the blond. “I don't like her, Uzumaki.”
 
The blonde clutched his head. “Yeah, yeah, whatever. Hey, you still haven't told me your last name! That's not fair! You know mine!”
 
Sasuke uttered his infamous monosyllable. “Hn. Life's not fair Naruto, deal with it.”
 
Naruto opened his mouth to argue some more but was thankfully (for Sasuke) cut off by Kiba.
 
“We're on now guys. Let's roll!”
 
The band slipped onto stage silently and without the audience knowing. As the song drew to a close, the stage lights went up. The crowd roared as they noticed the band. Everyone stopped dancing and cheered as Naruto started speaking.
 
“How are you today?!”
 
The roar of the crowd brought another smile to Naruto's face.
 
“We're going to be playing loads of hits for you tonight! But first, let me introduce the band! We are now called Sharingan and we have a new lead singer now! People! Give it up for Sasuke!”
 
Naruto's words did not seem to reach Sasuke's brain. All he could see was the rosette slowly turn around. He could see the way her eyes widened as she saw Sharingan and he could feel his breathing quicken and become shallower. He closed his eyes quickly and breathed deeply, trying desperately to calm down.
 
Opening his eyes, he could see that the rosette was now conversing with her blonde friend. Tearing his eyes away from the glorious sight, he focused on what Naruto was saying.
 
“All right! Let's get it started now!”

Sakura pulled Ino over and leaned over. Whispering into her ear, Sakura hissed, “Oh man, that lead singer's the guy who bumped into me. You know, the arrogant prick I told you about?”
 
Ino's eyes were sparkling. “Sakura! You didn't tell me he was this hot!”
 
Sakura rubbed her forehead. “Great, the guy that I dislike the most is the lead singer of my favourite band. Brilliant.”

Sasuke looked up at the crowd. Taking a deep breath, he spoke softly into the microphone.
 
“This is a new song that I wrote. We've only practised this once, so most of it will be improvised, but I hope you like it.”
 
Sasuke turned around and nodded at the others, who were however looking very confused. He mouthed the song that they were going to sing and turned back to face the crowd.
 
Smirking, he said. “This song,” Sasuke turned his gaze towards Sakura. Staring straight into her green eyes, he smirked even more broadly before continuing. “is called The Way I Are.”

As Shikamaru remixed the beginning with his synthesizers, Sasuke rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt, exposing slender but muscular arms. There were tattoos of black flames along the whole of his left arm starting from his wrist and they seemed to ripple and flicker like real flames as Sasuke flexed his muscles. He pulled down his blue jeans slightly before adjusting his guitar. Smirking slightly, he stared straight at Sakura as he started playing the chords of the guitar as he sang.
 
“I ain't got no money
I ain't got no car to take you on a date
I can't even buy you flowers
But together we can be the perfect soul mates
Talk to me girl”
 
Sakura hadn't started dancing yet. She couldn't help find herself being mesmerized by Sasuke's voice and she found the song strangely appealing. As she continued to listen, she slowly forgot about everything and just started to dance as if she was on fire.
 
Sasuke too closed his eyes and he found himself slowly losing himself to the song.
 
“Oh, baby, it's alright now, you ain't gotta flaunt for me
If we go and touch, you can still touch my love, it's free
We can work without the perks just you and me
Thug it out 'til we get it right”
 
Sasuke opened his eyes and saw that Sakura was dancing with a red headed boy who was, if remembered correctly, called Gaara and who happened to be the ex lead singer of Sharingan, or as they called it, Sabaku.
 
“I ain't got no Visa
I ain't got no Red American Express
We can't go nowhere exotic
It don't matter 'cause I'm the one that loves you best
Talk to me girl”
 
Sakura closed her eyes as she allowed instinct to take over her senses. Slowly, she pressed backwards against her partner as she swayed her hips. Flipping back her hair, she slid downwards and brushed against Gaara's trousers with her hands. Opening her startling green eyes, she turned around to face her partner and leaned forward so close that their lips were almost touching. As Gaara made to move forward, Sakura turned around and walked forward until she was in the centre of the dance floor, right underneath the disco ball. Gaara smiled slightly as he realized that the girl was teasing him.

Sasuke gave a start as he heard Naruto's voice suddenly boom in his ear. Turning down the volume of his ear piece, he glared at the blonde as Naruto said, “Wow, I take it you're singing this song because you like someone?”
 
Sasuke slammed a few notes from his guitar before growling in annoyance, “What makes you think that?”
 
Kiba's voice cut across Naruto's. “The fact that your songs depend on your mood and because your face is going red.”
 
Sasuke glared at the drummer. “I don't like anyone.”
 
Naruto smirked as he glanced knowingly at Kiba as Sasuke resumed singing.
