SENTENCE PROMPT MEME

[modpuppet]

 HI GUYS SORRY I SUCK

So I think someone suggested this a while back? Maybe?

+ Pick a character/pairing, any character/pairing you want.
+ Write a SENTENCE. That's right, prompters, this time you're over the flames too! It can be one word, it can be sixty words, but write one sentence for author!anons to use in their fills. You may specify pairings,

Kakashi/Naruto, AU, backstage.

And then, in the pale blue glow of the backstage walk lights, Naruto grabbed his tie and kissed him.

A/N: Sorry if a band AU wasn't what you had in mind with your prompt, but when I read your sentence, this suddenly popped into my head and I had to write it.
Warning: recent Sasuke relationship, Beatles cover band, rusty writing
____________________________________________________________

“Damnit! Fucking Sasuke…” Naruto muttered to himself, hands fisted as if they could mute the pain in his chest as he stomped along the sidewalk. Another day, another fight with Sasuke-and, damn, but that boy had really cut into him this time with his scathing tongue. Sasuke always knew, worse than physically hurting him, what really got to Naruto were his words.

This wasn’t normal, was it? Before, he’d always thought this intensity between them was a good thing; chemistry. Instead, he was starting to realize, what it actually meant was that whenever they came together, explosions happened-and not the good kind

Naruto was just going to keep on walking, wallowing in a horrible mixture of rage, self-pity, and nostalgia, when his brain finally registered the name on one of the top-most posters:

The Eggmen: a Beatles Tribute

Featuring:

Hatake Kakashi
There was more after that, listing the names of the rest of the band, of course. Naruto even knew them-Asuma, Tenzou, and his friend Shikamaru, who’d taken up the bass when Asuma had challenged him one fateful day over a shougi board. All of it blurred away, though, leaving Naruto to see Kakashi’s name in big, bold letters, today’s date floating underneath as his heart hammered away inside his chest

And, suddenly, Naruto realized he was crying, tears sliding down his face from his blurring eyes, and he gulped in a shuddery breath as he got close enough that he could reach for Kakashi in just two more steps-

“Oh, for heaven’s sake,” a familiar female voice intoned from a surprisingly close distance.

Before Naruto had a chance to register that Sakura had pushed her way through the crowd to get to his side, she was already dragging him ahead and through a door almost hidden in the black of the walls to one side. The slightly muffled sound and the sudden brightness of the hallway made Naruto feel off-balance for a moment, but recovered quickly, not wanting to miss a moment more of Kakashi singing to him. He allowed Sakura to lead him for a mere beat longer, then his memory of past performances, when he watched and cheered from backstage, finally took over.

This boy wouldn't mind the pain,
Would always feel the same,

Then he was there, on the darkened backstage, watching Kakashi’s profile as he started the final verse. Naruto’s

Not the OP, but I kind of love this.  It's sweet, with the right touch of melancholy all throughout to make that sweetness really sweet.  The remembered 'old man' teasing is just so perfect and grin-inducing, and the idea of Kakashi and Asuma and Tenzou and Shikamaru in a band together is sort of awesome.  I'd love to see more of this AUniverse, but at the same time this is just kind of perfect as-is.  Thanks for filling this wonderful prompt with such a wonderful little fic, Anon!  ^_^

Thank you for the awesome comment. ^^ I was actually worried about this fill, as I wrote it at like 3am and posted immediately without reading over. ^^;; So I'm really happy someone liked it!
