Neji winced for the forth time in mere minutes. He was currently going through the pain staking process of having his hair made into perfection. 'How do Haku and Deidara sit through this without even so much as a flinch?' Neji thought, before feeling the comb rake through his hair once again. After being dragged to the hair place (1) by their anikis, Deidara and Haku gave the hairstylests the styles each of them were to get. 'Lucky Sasuke! He never had long, he doesn't go through as much pain.' Neji shot a glare at Sasuke, who despite the fact he didn't have as much hair. Still felt that slight displeasure at having hot wax drug through his hair. (2) When the hair stylests finished several hours later, Haku was left with a neat chignon and two long bangs left down on the sides of his face. (3) Sasuke's hair was spiked in the back also had his bangs hanging to the side of his face. Deidara's hair was a high pony-tail, with hair covering his left eye. Neji's hair was tied high with his own braided hair, and what flowed from the pony-tail was in tiny micro braids. (4) "You look good Neji." Sasuke stated silently, making the other boy blush a bright red."Thank you Sasuke-kun. It was all Aniki's doing though." Neji replied politely, since they were in public they had to watch their words. In hamanachi, gossip was common and one slip up meant career doom for a young maiko. "Of course, we all look good. It's to be expected from Geisha to look their best." Haku said, leading them out into the streets to walk home. Once at the okiha, they were greeted by one of the maids who was also a young Geisha in training. He bowed low in respect of his elders before speaking silently, "Haku-san, your danna was here earlier. He requested you bring Sasuke, and Neji with you tonight. He said if you wanted he would fully compensate you for their time." With that said the little maiko rushed off to finish any chores that need be done. "Deidara, do you mind if I borrow your otouto for the night? I was given tickets to a sumo match tonight that I did not plan to use anyway, you and Sasori could go. I know how he takes pleasure in watching matches." Haku asked, after turning to the blounde. All that filled Deidara's head was the thought of pleasing his danna, so nodding eagerly as he followed Haku to his room. Neji and Sasuke looked at each other questioningly before following suit and going to their own room to apply their make-up.
Gaara & Naruto"Hey Gaara, what do you think they'll look like?" Naruto asked, he was currently lying on the floor boredly staring at ceiling. Whilst Gaara sat in a chair across the room, reading a book and completely acting uninterested. "I don't really care Naruto." the red-head stated, before flipping another page in his book. Naruto groaned in response. "Honestly Naruto I don't see why you have such an interest in my lack of interest in love or sex." Naruto pouted, "I don't like seeing you unhappy, and I was hoping if you found someone you like. If even a little you'd be, you know. Happier." Naruto looked at the ground sadly, tracing small patterns in the wood. Gaara sighed at this, putting his book down he looked over at Naruto. "Do you really think it would make a difference?" he asked, his voice growing weary and tired. Naruto smiled at the tiny shimmer of hope, presented to him in that one sentence. Despite Gaara's insomnia, he hardly ever sounded tired. When he did though it meant his resolve was crumbling, which only seemed to happen in the presence of the idiot blonde.
A/N1. Once again I have no clue what it's called, but when I find out I'll give you the name people.2. Ok, yeah they didn't have the modernized hair gel we got today. And wax lasted long, and looked good too.3. If you have no clue what Im talking about it just Haku's regular hairstyle, which is actually traditional for maiko in their first steps of training to wear.4. Think of Lulu from 'Final Fantasy X', just without the Kanzashi in her hair.Thank you all who have reviewed. And sorry the chapters are so short, if they were longer I wouldn't post as often and would get bored with this story.~Yuri
