Haku smiled happily as they approached the tea house. Zabuza met with him about once a week, normally in private. His friend must be important, especially if he was paying all this money and interupting their alone time. A waitress greeted them at the door with a smile, once they got close enough, with a low bow she proceeded to show them to the private room after they slipped off their sandals. Haku giggled softly as he approached the room hearing the arguing coming from inside. 'This sounds like fun it's definatly going to be fun.' Haku thought silently, to himself as the waitress opened the door. The men inside instantly calmed themselves. All three suppresed their bouts of laughter at the group, Naruto was still nursing his head. While both Zabuza and Gaara had triumphant looks on their faces. 'Oh he's hot.' Neji thought taking in the appearence of the red-head. Bright red hair, pale pale skin, alluring jade green eyes, 'And no eyebrows?' Neji thought briefly, before gracefully taking a seat next to Gaara. Sasuke slid next to Naruto, while Haku introduced the two. Zabuza did the same introducing Gaara and Naruto. Nodding Haku took a seat next to his danna. "Dobe, why did you to get hit?" Sasuke asked with a grin, as he poured Naruto's tea."Hey! Did you just insult me?! Are Geisha supposed to do that?!" Naruto yelled, his head shooting up as he glared at Sasuke."No their not, but I'm not a Geisha. I'm a maiko." Sasuke replied smuggly, taking in Naruto's appearance. 'Blonde hair? Where's that come from? He's definately japanese, but where'd the blonde hair come from? His eyes are such a bright blue it feels like I could get lost.' at those thoughts the dark haired boy quickly diverted his eyes away from Naruto. Naruto puffed up at Sasuke's response looking away from him in defiance, and while Haku found it all too amusing. He found that Naruto was right, and even maiko had to follow regular Geisha traditions. "Sasuke." he reprimanded softly, yet threateningly. Sasuke needed to hear no more than his name to bow his head in apology. "I am sorry, aniki." Sasuke replied, making Naruto snicker. In response to being laughed at Sasuke's anger flared up, but he held it inside as to not get reprimanded again. "Naruto!" Zabuza said loudly to get the blondes attention, which he did, Naruto looked up at him with wide eyes. "Stop prevoking him!"Neji was oblivious to the whole thing, as he was still staring at Gaara shyly through long lashes. When the red-head moved just slightly, he caught the red kanji that said love on Gaara's forehead. Neji wondered for a moment why Gaara had it, but quickly diverted his attention away from the other boy. Sake was brought in and sat in front of Gaara just then, seperate from the tea the others had. Reaching over Neji picked up the bottle and poured some in the small dish for Gaara to drink, who in turn looked over and stared at him for a moment. "It's customary for Geisha to pour your drink for you, havn't you ever been to celebrations with Geisha around?" Neji inquired softly, Gaara shook his head tensely still staring at the drink. Naruto noticed how tense Gaara seemed and looked at the red-head who seemed caught up in his own thoughts. "Gaara--" Naruto started, before being interrupted by Gaara standing stiffly and quickly leaving the room."Did I do something wrong?" Neji asked, looking over at Naruto who also shook his head in reponse staring at the open door. "I see." Neji said softly to himself before standing gracefully before making his way to follow the other boy. Haku grabbed Neji's hand softly to stop him before he left the room, "I'll be fine." Neji reassured him before putting on his sandals and leaving the tea house. Sasuke sighed, "He's so stubborn." shaking his head Sasuke turned his attention to Naruto, but opted to say nothing instead of something rude.Zabuza looked over at Haku, who looked worried, placing a finger under his chin Zabuza tilted Haku's face towards his own. "Do not worry he will be fine. Naruto, your friend wouldn't hurt him right?" Zabuza asked, snapping him out of his trance. "No, I don't think he would. He's probably just confused." Naruto replied, and Zabuza looked back at his lovely Geisha."See, he will be fine." the tall man consoled, Haku nodded a bit in return."Hey Sasuke--" Naruto started, looking over at the dark haired boy getting a "Hn?" in response he continued. "--why are you the only Geisha I've ever seen with short hair?" at the question, Sasuke looked at the blonde strangely while also touching his hair self consciously. "I--" he paused in thought before continuing, "--I am, unique." looking down Sasuke suddenly felt very self-conscious. Sasuke's thin hands began to grip tightly at the front of his kimono, Haku watched Sasuke closely and his discomfort. He was begining to feel an increasing want to leave before anything else unexpected happened. Haku's distress was quickly quelled though, as Sasuke regained his composure smiled slightly. "Do you really think I should grow it long Naruto-sama?"(1) for a moment Naruto was taken aback from the sudden change of attitude, but he recovered quickly. "Umm... well no, not really. I think it looks good the way it is, I don't really like long hair." Naruto replied happily, making Sasuke blush such a shade of red that he was almost positive it could be seen through the white make-up.

Neji & ??Neji walked outside, looking up and down the poorly lit streets. "Gaara-sama?" he called out into the night. Catching a glimpse of something moving in an ally he moved towards it. (2) "Gaara-sama?" he called again to a figure shrouded in the darkness of the alley, as he stepped closer it moved further in. Neji followed close behind, until he reached a small brightly lit enclosure. Neji shielded his eyes from the light for a moment until his eyes unjusted to the light. Looking around he realized he hadn't been following the red-head, but instead someone else. "I'm sorry I mistaked you for someone else." Neji appologized, before turning to leave only to feel a pair of arms wrap his abdoman and pull him back into the enclosure. "Hey let go!" Neji yelled kicking and punching the man, whatever part he could which didn't seem to help all that much. (3) Letting out a small "Omph." as he was pushed against a wall Neji tried to push the man away from him. "Stop, I want to leave!" he tried again, but in vain as the kimono was being roughly pushed off his shoulders. He attempted to scream only to be silenced by a hand being placed over his mouth. 'Someone please help me.' Neji thought, hoping that someone, anyone would come to his rescue as he began to tremble.~~~~~
GaaraFrom his small hiding spot Gaara sought relief from his thoughts. Only for the silence to bring upon even more, he knew Naruto wouldn't let anything happen to him. So why freak out so bad?? Trying to shake the thoughts flooding his mind he heard a someone yell not far away. 'What the hell?' Gaara thought for a moment before standing from his spot. Moments later there was a small scream, he decided to head in the direction of the noise. 'At the very least I'll be able to relieve some stress.' he thought with a small sadistic smile. As he approached the area with caution he saw a spikey hair man pressed against someone else, hand over their mouth. He couldn't see the person against the wall but he reconized the other one. 'Kidoumaru?' without a second thought, Gaara withdrew his wakizashi (4) from it's sheath. Sneaking behind the man who was currently occupied Gaara quickly brought the wakizashi to the man throat. "Goodnight." (5) he wispered before dragging the blade across Kidoumaru's throat swiftly. The blood in turn sprayed onto the person pinned against the wall. Gaara looked up to see who after letting the body drop to the ground. 'Neji? said boy was standing flat against the wall still, trembling slightly. Wiping the blade clean on his shirt before re-sheathing it Gaara stepped closer to him. "You should get cleaned up." Gaara spoke softly before touching the blood staining the the kimono without thought. "I'll replace this for you." Neji nodded numbly at the words his eyes wide.~~~~~
