A/N; Here is the next chapter. And forewarning it has two parts.

Summary; Sasuke is haunted by his past. Sakura loves him, but when his past comes between them, can she have the man she loves? With the help of a singer maybe she can.

 

Part One

Ghost of Me

 

          Blue eyes once again scanned the full club. It was packed, just like last night. Naruto smiled as he thought about those two. He hoped that everything was going good for them now.

          Naruto searched the crowd, feeling the emotions in the air. That was how he decided what songs to sing, by the feelings of the crowd.

He read the emotions in the club, stopping when one stood out among the rest; fear; that’s what he felt now. Fear and heartbreak someone was fighting for their love and losing. Blue eyes locked with an anguished pair of emerald green.

Sakura Haruno stared at the blonde haired man on the stage. Namekaze Naruto, that’s what Hinata said his name, was.

Naruto seemed to know exactly what someone needed to hear. And right now Sakura needed her boyfriend to come to terms with his past, and Naruto knew just the song. The beat started with first just the drums, and then came the electric guitar. Then without further ado Naruto began to sing;

 

“Thought it was dead and buried

Then it woke you up last night

You sounded so damn worried

You've been tossing, turning, both ends burning



I wanna put your mind at ease again

(Make everything alright)

I know it's getting underneath your skin

I've tried to tell you now



Don't look over your shoulder

'Cause that's just the ghost of me

You're seeing in your dreams

Wait, there's no rhyme or reason



Sometimes there's no meaning

In the visions when you're sleepin'

Don't wake up and believe them

You're looking at the ghost of me”^

Sasuke’s black eyes locked with the blue ones on stage. Naruto looked straight at the Uchia as he sang. As Sasuke thought about the words in the song, his black eyes locked with the emerald green ones of his girlfriend, Sakura.

“With your imagination and emotions running wild

Fueling my frustrations like a fire burning, clock keeps turning

I know it's getting underneath your skin

I've tried to tell you now



Don't look over your shoulder

'Cause that's just the ghost of me

You're seeing in your dreams

Wait, there's no rhyme or reason



Sometimes there's no meaning

In the visions when you're sleepin'

Don't wake up and believe them

You're looking at the ghost of me

You're looking at the ghost of me

You're looking at the ghost of me



Don't look over your shoulder

'Cause that's just the ghost of me

You're seein'

Wait, there's no rhyme or reason



Sometimes there's no meaning

In the visions when you're sleepin'

Don't wake up and believe them

Visions when you're sleepin'

Don't wake up and believe them

You're looking at the ghost of me

You're looking at the ghost of me

You're looking at the ghost of me”^

The song ended with Naruto and a guitar solo. Naruto sighed; the rest was up to Sasuke.

Sakura looked into the eyes of the man she loved so much, but with all the pressure his clan places on him, she just doesn’t know if they would be able to stay together. Sasuke valued his father’s opinion so much, that no one else mattered. But with his father dead, Sasuke became a shell of his older self. Sakura sighed, there had to be a way to get his attention.

Sasuke let out a un-Uchia-like long sigh. He knew that something was wrong between him and Sakura; he knew that his family was the reason. But the past was just hard for him to let go. He didn’t know if he could do that, even for Sakura.

Naruto sighed yet again; this one was going to be harder than he thought. Naruto once again searched the crowd and found Sakura. Naruto cocked his head at the pink-haired girl’s expression. She was up to something and needed his help. A sly-foxy smile made its way onto Naruto’s face. He knew exactly what she had in mind.

If they were going to help the Uchia they had to do something drastic, and Naruto knew exactly what they had to do.

 

A/N; and that’s it for part one. Next time: Naruto’s and Sakura’s plan. Till then Ja Ne.
