NaruHina and SasuSaku Oneshots ✓

The Show Must Go On!

A/N: Okay this is literally one of my favorite ending credit songs in Naruto. Its called Transient Fireworks, ending 12. The singer is so sweet and melodic, and the feature of Sakura in this is well put. In the story, the lyrics will be put. Hope you enjoy this song as much as I do! Please, please listen to it and watch it! It's so good!

Breathing in and out, Sakura Haruno wiped her hands on her shorts. It was the opening night for the musical her school created, Transient Fireworks, and she was the female lead. The male lead just so happened to be her long-time crush, Sasuke Uchiha, although no more then five words were exchanged between the two. Her big song was about to begin with Sasuke listening, then adding his lines right after.

Not to mention that they had to kiss. The two hadn't done it during rehearsals. They'd often avoided each other. Right now, she watched her two friends Naruto and Hinata, who were on the stage, figuring out their love for each other. They rehearsed the scene so much, but here on stage, Sakura grinned. She could see Naruto coming to realize his love for Hinata, and was desperate to tell her. She wished Sasuke could see her feelings for her, but she knew it was impossible.

Applause was soon given out as their scene was over. The two walked off the stage together, smiling. The show was now to go back to her and Sasuke. Taking a deep breath, Sakura walked out calmly, hands behind her back, a sad smile across her face.

It was the last scene of the show, and Sasuke Uchiha stared at his co-lead actor, Sakura Haruno. He never talked to her, simply because he was shy. As she said her lines to the audience, and him doing his own part, thoughts raced over his mind. He liked Sakura since elementary, and even during rehearsals, he tried to stay away from her. He didn't want those feelings to be shown. Then he walked off stage, close enough to see Sakura and come out quickly.

Sakura finally began to sing, with her sweet, soft voice. He sat down, and his character was supposed to be inside her mind, later coming out and telling her his true feelings, but he listened closely. A twinge of his heart twisted, and he felt Sakuras voice was different from what it was from rehearsals. Was it nervousness. Nevertheless, he tuned into her song.

The festival at the end of August flooded with people
wearing yukata and geta,*
making sounds of click-clack ring.
As the fireworks suddenly went off, we looked up,
and I stole a glance at your enraptured face.

I wish I could hate you.
But during days like today, I will surely
once again remember these memories.

I wish I never knew these feelings.
Yet even though we cannot meet again,
I want to see you. I want to see you.
Even now, I think of the summer days when you were here.

As we sat and rested on the roadside,
we could hear the sound of the ohayashi* far away,
the fluttering echo.
Giant brocade crowns bloom in the night sky.
As summer ends soon,
I suddenly feel sad.

My upside down heart jumped up
as we both laughed "ahaha."
"I love you."
And we kissed.

I want to forget everything about you.
As it is, I'm' still sad.
Why did I ever meet you?
If I close my eyes,
I can feel like you are there even now.

With a sweet sigh,
I feverishly fell in love with you-
That voice, those eyes-
Even though when I realized it, the time had already passed,
I still search for your face.

As I look up at the fireworks by myself,
my heart prickles in pain.
Soon, the next season
will be here.
The ephemeral fireworks I watched with you-
Even now, I think of that summer day.

And right then, right then, Sakura looked right into Sasuke's eyes. She didn't do that before, never until now. Right there, Sasuke saw all of her pain, all of her sorrow, her happiness... and her love for him. It shot Sasuke up, and he stared back her with equal eyes. Still staring, he began his part.

"For the longest time, I hurt you," Sasuke said as he began his line. Sakura's cheeks were flushed as she looked at Sasuke. His stare on her grew even more, and her cheeks became even redder. 

"I hurt you, and I regret that. I didn't understand a relationship. I didn't understand how awful I made you feel. I feel so terrible. If I could, and if you would, please, can I have another chance? A chance to tell you that... that I love you too? Please, Akari?" Sakura stared into Sasukes eyes and saw his feelings, his true ones.

Its showed relief, joy, hope.... and his love for her. That made her smile widely.

"Ryu. I never stopped loving you. Not ever. Not one bit. I love you." Sakura softly said. Sasukes eyes looked lovingly at his co-star, and stepped foward, leaning in for the scenes kiss, and the twos feelings were confirmed, as they smiled through the intimate moment. Soon, they broke off, and they bowed. Naruto and Hinata came out and bowed, followed by Kiba, Shikamaru, Temari, Ino, Sai, Shino, Neji, Choji, Gaara, Kankuro, Rock Lee and Tenten came out, and the full cast bow was done. A few speeches by the directors, Mr. Hatake, Mr. Uchiha and Ms. Nohara , and the cast left the stage, being congratulated by the audience.

Sasuke and Sakura looked at each other, and simply smiled. They knew each others feelings, and that was enough. With a parting hug, they left their separate ways to their own families.

________

I honestly think that this describes Sasukes and Sakuras relationship the best. Its showing how simple words exchanged between the two, the bond between the two will never fade, even if there isn't much intimacy.
