So this is my first songfic, of the song “Under Pressure” (originally by Queen) preformed by Kill Hannah

“Under Pressure”

“Pressure!” Sasuke shouted in response to Naruto’s unrelenting question of ‘What’s wrong, Sasuke?!’ He continued, “pushing down on me, pressing down on you no man ask for.” He threw himself down in the grass.

“Under “pressure”?! That burns a building down, splits a family in two, puts people on streets?” Naruto replied, not believing that it was that simple. Bah bah deh-Naruto’s Heart was beating in his ears-mmm Bah bah deh Buh dah dah Buh dah dah dah dah yey. Sasuke was telling him what was wrong, finally opening up.

“It's the terror of knowing what this world is about.”

“Watching some good friends scream "Let me out!"” Naruto replied quietly.

“Pray tomorrow takes me higher.” Sasuke muttered looking away. Naruto almost started crying at this knowing the exact feeling Sasuke was talking about, being so down and feeling so low…

Naruto thought, ‘it’s different than,’ “pressure on people, people on the streets,” he finished out loud.

“Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.” Sasuke replied calmly, he’d heard the blonde say that all the time.

“Okay!” Naruto didn’t want to start a fight like he did ever time he ranted about “people on the streets”. ‘What have you been doing with yourself?’ Naruto thought and frowned at a spot on the floor

“Chippin' around, kickin’ my brains round the floor,” Sasuke drolled sarcastically, he could always read the emotional idiot like a map.

“Heh, these are the days it never rains but it pours.” Naruto said relaxed, moving closer to Sasuke-buhdahdap buhlabadup Sasuke’s heart sped up-he sat down next to Sasuke on the ground-badup badup-a little too close for Sasuke’s comfort. But Sasuke remained calm.

“People on streets,” he muttered, his heart going Badup badup.

“People on streets,” Naruto muttered back, his heart rate mimicking Sasuke’s Badup badup.

“It's the terror of knowing what this world is about. Watching some good friends scream "Let me out!"” Naruto repeated. He continued muttering to himself, “pray tomorrow takes me higher”

“Higher,” Sasuke said absentmindedly, Naruto looked at him, startled that he’d been heard. He then turned accusatory to lighten the heavy mood that had fallen upon them.

“Turned away from it all, like a blind man. Sat on a fence but it don't work. Keep coming up with love, but it's so slashed and torn,” He started talking about Sasuke, but he realized it was more about himself, how he ignored how he was treated by the villagers.

“Why? Why? Why?” Sasuke said angry at how Naruto put up that fence, it had always bothered him, but now he got the chance to ask the idiot about it.

“Love, love, love,” Naruto whispered, and Sasuke barely caught it, his heart fluttering but he didn’t say anything yet.

“Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking,” He said.

“Can't we give ourselves one more chance?” Naruto started, and ended in a whisper, “Why can't we give love that one more chance? “ He mustered up some courage, turned to Sasuke and said loudly. “Why can't we give love…” He stopped seeing Sasuke give him a meaningful look as ‘give love? give love? give love? give love? give love? give love? give love?’ echoed in the trees around them.

Sasuke started sarcastically “’Cause love's such an old fashioned word, and—“ he was cut off by Naruto’s lips on his. Naruto took his lips off of Sasuke’s but only pulled away an inch.

“Love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night,” He breathed on Sasuke’s lips, searching the brunette’s eyes for acceptance of his confession.

“And love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves,” He replied, looking Naruto straight in the eyes back, “this is our last dance.”

“This is our last dance,” Naruto repeated, glancing at Sasuke’s lips.

“This is ourselves,” Sasuke moved forward to capture Naruto’s lips in a more passionate kiss: eyes slipping shut; pale arms wrapping around a orange-jacketed waist; tan hands slipping over shoulders and into dark tresses; chests being pushed together; lips parting; and tongues sliding over each other in a gentle caress.

Under pressure

They part for air.

Under pressure

They kiss gently again.

Under pressure

They lay down in the grass.

Under pressure

Their fingers link gently together as they stare at the clouds, small true smiles on their faces.

So how was it? Totally insane? Cool? Nonsense? Feedback please! Thanks for checking it out, and yeah I know I have a chapter fic going on. I just am in a songfic mood I guess.
