Chapter Twenty-Three

Sasuke's one hand held the microphone as his other hand held the microphone stand...

As soon as the song began, Sasuke waited for his cue and started singing...

"Wow, I have absolutely no idea Sasuke can sing this well..." Kiba commented as he kept nodding his head in approval.

"Puh-lease Kiba, this is my husband that you're talking about. And he's an Uchiha, of course everything he does is perfect." Sakura bragged with a smirk as she crossed her arms.

Currently the group except for Nagato and Karin since the two redheads went back to Kyoto, were sitting at a round table which is right in front of the stage. They got VIP table in credits to Sasuke for knowing the bar owner...

"Whoever would have thought... Sasuke Uchiha can actually sing... I've always thought he sounded like a frog..." Sai said casually as Sakura frowned at him.

"Who told you he sounded like a frog?"

"Naruto."

Sakura slowly turned to the blonde while cracking her knuckles who suddenly looked pale with a giggling Hinata beside him.

"No no no wait! It was a long time ago! I didn't know he's in the same club as me so I just blurted what's the first impression I had on his voice! That I thought he sounded like a frog!" Naruto tried defending himself.

"Well you then sound like a frog!" Sakura rebutted angrily as Naruto suddenly crossed his arms and his expression turned serious.

"No I do NOT sound like a frog! For your information, even your husband knows that I can sing very well!"

"As well as the Uchiha himself?" Ino asked with a laugh, enjoying the drama.

"Yes in fact better than him!" Naruto answered haughtily as Shikamaru shook his head.

"I think his head is getting bigger..." the Nara sighed as Temari stood up...

"I'm going to the ladies. Tenten wanna come along?"

Tenten shook her head so Temari went ahead.

After Temari was out of earshot, Kankuro started elbowing Shikamaru.

"Saaaayyyy... What's going on between you and my sister eh?"

Shikamaru frowned.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"You seem to be awfully close to my sister nowadays..." Gaara said in a warning tone as Kankuro laughed at his younger brother's threat. "Don't hurt her or I will make sure you will suffer a life like the unfortunate priest in my Sims game..."

Shikamaru tsked when Sakura turned her attention to them.

"What about your Sims game?"

Lee was excited to explain as Neji tried to cover his mouth.

"No Lee! Don't let the girls know about how we run our characters in the game! It was a bro code and a secret among us only!" Neji whisper yelled but Ino frowned as she looked at Choji and pushed her bowl of chips to him.

"Come on big boy, you can have my chips..."

And just like that Choji bailed out on the guys and ranted about each and every one of their characters, including himself...

Sakura's eyes widened as she turned to Naruto...

"You locked your son in a small room with no way of escape and let him drown in his own urine just because he doesn't want to wake up for school?!?"

Naruto frowned as Hinata burst out in laughter at her husband's panic look.

"Hinata chan!" the blonde said in desperation as he took her hands in his. "You have to believe me it's all just a game! I would never do such a thing to our child!"

"Naruto kun... We don't even have a child yet..."

"Yea but... What I meant was... Our future child..." Naruto answered sheepishly as Hinata ruffled his blonde hair.

"So you looking forward to raising a child with me?" Hinata teased as Naruto took her hand away from his hair and kissed it.

Hinata's cheeks reddened as Sakura frowned at the bluenette.

"He's gonna drown your child in his own urine Hinata..." she warned playfully as Naruto whipped to the pinkette.

"Hey your Uchiha husband set his own baby on fire just because he wanted to play the computer!" Naruto argued as Sakura threw her arms up in surrender.

"You're right. Both you and my husband are just plain sick."

"Wha... HEY!" Naruto yelled. "Your husband is more sick than I am!"

"No no. I think my husband is more sick than any of you guys." Ino said before turning to face Sai. "Slave artists? Really Sai?"

Sai shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.

"What? It's an artistic prison is it not?"

Ino was about to answer her husband when Temari came back and the host came on stage.

"Alright let's put our hands together for our guest performer, Uchiha Sasuke!" the host announced as the bar patrons' clapped their hands. "Onwards there's a special performance, a bar patron has asked to use our piano and play it for a special someone in the bar so without further a due, let's put our hands together for this talented pianist!"

"Oh a pianist eh?" Naruto muttered under his breath as the light dimmed before focusing on the piano with a female pianist sitting on a piano bench...

"What the... Hinata isn't that?" Sakura asked, clenching her fists as Hinata was too stunned to speak...

The pianist began playing the haunting melody as Naruto's blue eyes widened in shock...

"That's... the music box piece... My dad created for my mum..." Naruto whispered but everyone at the table heard him before a throbbing headache engulfed him and he blacked out...
