Chapter 48

Sasuke and Gaara both walked onstage full of shock and confusion.

"Oh," Kurenai said noticing them. "What are you two doing?"

"We're here with a proposal." Sasuke said into her microphone.

She handed the mic to Gaara. "We propose a tie breaker song!!" He yelled making the crowd cheer with excitement.

She took the mic back. "Sounds good!" she smiled. "Who's starting?"

"We're starting." Sasuke said before Gaara could say anything.

"I agree." Gaara said walking offstage to be with his band. Kiba, Naruto, and Shikamaru were scared about what he proposed.

"Gaara!" Naruto said full of fear. "We don't have another song we can play."

Gaara pulled out his PRS. "Yes we do."

"We still to work on that song." Kiba said. "We're not ready."

"All we have to do is have you as my backup vocals instead of Naruto or Shikamaru." Gaara assured his band mate.

"If this cost us the contest…" Shikamaru started. "We'll tie you to the flagpole and beat you with sticks."

"Fair enough." Gaara said smiling.

Sasuke and the Sound Nins walked on stage with all their equipment. They played a twenty five second intro. Sasuke started to sing.

You took me home
I drank too much
Cause of you my liver turned to dust
Cold rust tastes
Cool creeping cold pain
Do you understand what I mean?
When you feel your soul drop to the floor
Like a hole, like an open bleeding sore
Then you'll have bled like I bled

He started to scream.
And you'll have wept as I've wept

Zaku started to sing.

Suck me down, it's time to rock and roll
Lets hit the bar, lets lose control
One false move, you took me home
One false move, you're all alone

Sasuke started singing again.

But it looks so good and it feels so nice
I paid the price
I'll cut you out just to hear you scream,
Get away from, get away from me
And I can feel my heartbeat racing

He started screaming again.
As I realize what I must do
Get away from...
Get away from...
Get away from you

Zaku started singing.

I should have turned and ran like hell
Last time I got the taste of you

Sasuke screamed.
I should have turned and ran like hell
And I'll see we're through

Zaku sang.
I should have turned and ran like hell
Last time I got the taste of you

Sasuke screamed.
I should have turned and ran like hell
And I'll see we're through
And I'll see we're through

Zaku started playing a solo that lasted as long as the intro. He started to sing the last parts of the song after he finished his solo.

You fell upon me like a plague
Weakness, sweet weakness
But I digress
After all this...
You're just like all the rest

Suck me down
It's time to rock and roll
Let's hit the bar, let's lose control
One false move, you took me home
One false move, you're all alone

They all held the last chords of the song. The crowd started to cheer.

-

"We've lost." Naruto said with no emotion.

"Don't give up yet, Naruto." Kiba said holding his Schecter. "If Gaara has faith in this song, we should also have faith."

"Kiba's right." Gaara agreed with Kiba. "Now let's show them how to really play."

They all walked onstage with their instrument as well as Gaara with his PRS. Kiba stood in front of the mic Naruto used in the last song. Kiba started with a short intro followed by Shikamaru with his drums and Gaara singing with Kiba as his Backup vocals.

The faster we're falling,
We're stopping and stalling.
We're running in circles again
Just as things were looking up
You said it wasn't good enough.
But still we're trying one more time.

Gaara started playing guitar and Naruto started playing bass.

Maybe we're just trying too hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Seems like each time
I'm with you I lose my mind,
Because I'm bending over backwards to relate.
It's one thing to complain
But when you're driving me insane
Well then I think it's time that we took a break.

Maybe we're just trying too hard.
When really it's closer than it is too far

Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Kiba started playing the best solo he has ever played in a punk song that lasted about fifteen seconds.

I can't sit back and wonder why.
It took so long for this to die.
And I hate it when you fake it.
You can't hide it you might as well embrace it.
So believe me it's not easy.
It seems that something's telling me,

I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep,
Up above in my head, instead of going under.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under.

Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under.
Instead of going under again.
Instead of going under again.

They played for twenty five more seconds to finish the song.

Kurenai, Kakashi, Tsunade, and Orochimaru walked on stage with the gold trophy with three crossing guitars sculpted on it.

"We have chosen a winner." Kurenai said into her microphone. "The winner is…" Everyone in the stands was sitting at the edge of their seats. Gaara had his fingers crossed. Sasuke was full of confidence. "Leaves In The Sand!!!!" Gaara, Shikamaru, Naruto, and Kiba ran on stage jumping and shouting as the crowd shouted for joy. "How do you guys feel winning for the first time?" She asked the four boys.

"It feels amazing." Gaara said for all of them. "That song was actually one we weren't able to get right until today."

"Yeah!!!" Kiba said smiling. "I didn't even know how I pulled off that solo! It just came naturally."

"Congratulations you four." Orochimaru said to them. "Now I have a special prize for you boys. I'm offering you a record contract with my very own label, Sound Ninja Records."

Leaves in the Sand huddled into a circle to discuss this. They separated. Gaara walked slowly towards Orochimaru who had a crooked smile on his face. "Orochimaru…" Gaara said to his face. "Were staying a high school band for now. So we're saying no to your offer." This shocked everyone in the room.

"You do know that I won't offer this to you again." Orochimaru said hoping they will change their minds.

"We know." Kiba said.

"But, we don't want anything to do with you either." Naruto followed.

"So take your offer to Sasuke and the Sound Nins." Shikamaru said following Naruto.

"Because our answer still stands." Gaara finished. Orochimaru walked off stage furiously. "Good riddance."

They all laughed as Kakashi handed them the trophy and Tsunade took their picture with her digital camera.

-

Later… Gaara, Kiba, and Naruto stared at their trophy placed in the trophy cabinet of their dorm building.

"Hey, where's Shikamaru?" Gaara said curiously.

"He's with Temari somewhere." Naruto said turning to face him. "After losing twice… This is a dream come true."

"I know." Kiba said still looking at the trophy. "This really is better than I imagined."

"Congrats you guys." Gaara said to his two friends.

"Us?" Naruto said to Gaara. "You did most of the work."

"No," Gaara said. "I just helped you guys out."

"Well, if not for you…" Kiba started. "We wouldn't have gotten this far."

"Thanks." Gaara replied to Kiba's comment. He just remembered something. "I need to go. Hinata said she has something for me. I'll be back soon." He walked out of the dorm building. 'I wonder what she has for me.' He thought making his way towards the girls Leaf dorm building. He saw Kurenai at the front. "Hey, Kurenai." He said to her. "Hinata wanted me to see her today."

"Yes, she left you a day pass." Kurenai said handing him the day pass. "With that you can come and go all day."

"Wow, she reserved this for me?" Gaara asked. "She really is something else."

"You are something else." Kurenai smiled at him. "You guys were the best today."

"Thank you Kurenai." Gaara smiled back at her. "Now to see what Hinata wants."

-

He reached her room and knocked on her door. She answered the door in her purple bath rode.

"You came." Hinata said without stuttering for the first time.

"Yes I did." Gaara said smiling at her. "So what do you need."

"C-come in." She welcomed him into her room. "I w-wanted to g-g-give you s-something special." She laid on her bed. "I'm a-all yours."

"Are you sure, Hinata?" Gaara asked. "I don't want to hurt you."

"I-I've been waiting f-for you." She smiled motioning him to join him. He leaned forward and kissed her as well as laid down on her bed with her…

-

Meanwhile… Shikamaru and Temari were laying in the school's court yard, cloud gazing together.

"That cloud looks like deer." Shikamaru said pointing to one cloud.

"That one looks like a kitten." She said pointing to another one. "It's so cute."

He noticed another one. "Hey, that one looks like you." He said to her.

She also saw it. "Yeah?" She nodded in agreement and noticed another one. "That one looks like both of us." Shikamaru Also saw it. "It looks like us kissing."

"Yes it does." Shikamaru smiled at her. They started to kiss the same way the cloud showed them.

-

In Kiba's room… Kiba and Ino were sitting on his bed. She was listening to him playing along to Nickelback on his acoustic guitar.

"You are really amazing, Kiba." Ino said to him interrupting his playing. "Really, I mean that solo you did. Both songs you guys played. I'm really jealous of you."

"You shouldn't be." Kiba said. "You're also really good at guitars, and you and the girls got second place. That's something to be proud of."

"I guess your right." Ino leaned towards him. "But I still love you."

"I love you too." He smiled at her.

They started to kiss while he was still holding his guitar.

-

In Naruto's room… Naruto and Sakura were kissing until she noticed something on Gaara's dresser.

"Is that a condom?" She asked Naruto also looking at Gaara's dresser.

He picked it up off his friend's dresser top. "Yeah, it is a condom." Naruto replied. "Why would he need this?" A thought just hit him. "Oh boy."

The same thought hit Sakura. "You don't think he was going to use it today!!!" She asked with shock.

"I think that was what Hinata wanted to give him." Naruto said. "But, can we worry about it later? I want to get back to kissing."

"… Alright." She smiled as they started to kiss again.

-

Later… Gaara and Hinata laid under her bed covers with all their clothes next to her bed.

"Wow." Gaara said smiling. "That was a new experience."

"I-it was for m-me too." She said smiling. "I-I'm glad i-it was with the o-one I l-love."

He turned to face her. "What if you get pregnant from this? I mean I wasn't protected."

"I d-don't care." Hinata assured him. "I-I want to p-p-preserve you s-seed. I'll t-try to b-be the b-best mother."

"And I'll try to be the best father I could be." He said making her smile and blush. "I love you, Hinata."

"I-I've always loved you." They started to kiss again but they slowly separated. "I'm g-getting t-tired. L-l-let me s-sl-sleep." She fell asleep.

He just smiled at her. "Sleep tight." He fell asleep nest to her.

I really want to just thank everyone who has reviewed this story, because without you guys/girls, I would've never finished this story. So, thanks again. I might do a sequel later, but it won't be until I get a few more stories done. I hope you all enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it.
