The Rose Chapter 1
He was exhausted.
He was utterly exhausted from all the tours, fans, and groupies that followed him wherever he went. He and his band were touring in Konoha, a fairly large village. It smelled kind of funny as the tour bus rolled on to the hotel where they would be staying at. The plan was simple; do a couple of nights of singing and playing, and then move on to the next destination. If only it were as simple as it sounded, he could barely sleep at nights after their gigs. Sasuke and the other band members were a big hit.
He didn't mind the attention they were getting, but it was the constant attention that he hated. Sometimes he wondered if being in a band was a mistake. A mistake he would regard as time passed. What else could he had been...a ninja? If only he could be. Working in small groups, going on assassination missions, not knowing if you're going to live or die. What a thrill being a ninja would be. Just thinking about it made his heart pound in his chest.
The feeling soon went away, ninja were of the past. They no longer existed in this timeline. There was nothing to do anymore, only boredom that came with the time.
Sasuke's forehead was pressed against a cold glass window; he looked up and saw a mountain that had the faces of past heroes etched on it. Konoha was a place where ninja had thrived at one point in time, now this place was a well built village where people looking for money and greed came. Casinos were littered all around the village. Night time was where anything worth noticing happened, a place built only for the rich and powerful. Power hungry people gathered at the casinos or stripper joints, spending and making money every minute. Gambling could make any man go nuts while trying to get one simple win.
Sasuke yawned as he gazed out the window, making it fog up with his breath. He watched as the fog slowly disappeared as time passed as he lifted his head to scratch at his itchy cheek. His head soon went back against the window as he continued to look at the lights and sounds of Konoha. Thousands of people walked along the sidewalks, going in and out of places that looked like they were built for fun. Sasuke noticed a club that was colorful and bright. He blushed when he saw a sign that read "Boys! Boys! Boys!"
It was a gay bar called 'The Rose.' Why on Earth would anyone name a club that? For some reason the club was etched into his mind, it looked like a nice place for a stripper joint. Sasuke followed the club until it was out of his sight. He let out a puff of air, again causing the window to fog up. He turned and sat back in his seat, the bus he was on was expensive. On the back of every head rest was TV with a remote control attached to each seat. They could watch anything their hearts desired; porn, a cooking show, Ninja Warrior. Sasuke wasn't watching anything at the moment, but he could hear several TV's on.
Sasuke hands gripped his arm rest as he pushed himself up to look over the head rest to the male in front of him; he was watching a porno. He knew he had heard moaning from somewhere. The small screen showed two women and one man. Both the women were going down on the man. He sneered at the heterosexual porn in front of his face as he flopped down in his overstuffed seat. The creamy colored leather was comfortable against his ass and his aching back.
"See anything you like, Sasuke?" The male on the other side of the bus asked him, he had seen Sasuke look over the head rest in front of him, watching the porno the other male was clearly enjoying.
Sasuke sickly smirked as he turned his head to the side to face the brunet. "Nothing I like, Nara." Sasuke said seriously. All his fans were girls; he had been forced by the manager of his band to keep his homosexuality a secret from his fans, his interviews, the paparazzi, or anyone else he came in contact with while on tour. The other band members knew this and continued to make fun of the deception considering that he was obviously gay.
Shikamaru looked amused for a second before turning to look out his window. Sasuke saw that and did the same. He chuckled as he saw someone trip over a drunken bum lying on the ground. He soon paled as he heard a male moan and it wasn't from the porno. Sasuke punched the back of the seat, dead center of where the other male's back was. He heard a disappointed sigh and the clanging of metal followed by the sound of a zipper. The male raised his hands over his head for Sasuke to see and then laced them together behind his head. "I hope you're happy because I'm not." The male said in a low whisper.
Sasuke rolled his eyes, not caring if the other male had a rock hard erection that begged for his master's touch. He wasn't going to sit back and listen to the other man getting off. He shifted a little lower in his seat, not looking out the window as he stared forward. Sasuke looked down at his jean clad pants and the matching jacket that had ends that fell at his sides. He stared at the end of his black skull shirt as his hands rubbed the sweat from his palms, enjoying the rough feeling of his jeans against them.
Sasuke stuck out his tongue letting his tongue ring rubbed his lower lip. He switched sides as the tongue ring rubbed the upper lip, his lips formed around the ball and sucked the ball in making a small wet popping noise He continued doing it a couple of more times before he stopped.
He soon got up, going down the long strip of floor that led to the restroom. He gave a slight thank you to the man upstairs when he saw the restroom unoccupied, pushing the handle up. Pushing on the door, he went inside the grey restroom. He looked in the mirror in front of the toilet. He raised one of his hands to his cheek, rubbing to feel for any stubble before going to the other cheek. Satiated that he could go one more day before shaving, he reached for his fly and button, opening them both. Digging through his boxers to the opening, he pulled his limp penis out of his pants making sure his pubic hair wasn't near the teeth of the zipper.
He did his business before shaking and pushed his member back inside. After putting everything back in its place he went over to the sink, running water over his hands and flicking them before going to the door. As he walked out of the restroom, he was then jerked forward as the bus stopped. Sasuke hunched back to look outside; the hotel building stared back at him.
His band mates stood up. "Hey!" A male yelled out to the bus driver. "I want that porn that I haven't had the chance to relieve..." He turned around to see the Uchiha. "...myself with." The other band members chuckled.
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the moron. "Inuzuka, you get off on your own time." He said in a grossed out tone. He was a little amazed that Kiba could get off on a bus full of other males. "How can you get off on a bus?" He shook his head in disgust.
Kiba shrugged at Sasuke. "It doesn't bother me. Besides you guys just wish you had a penis like this." He proceeded to palm himself to the group of men. Kiba moved along the long strip of the bus, still clutching his crotch, as he began whistling a soft tone. He walked towards the driver and held out his hand that wasn't holding his package.
The driver handed him the VCR tape before Kiba turned to the door, it was obvious to the rest of the band that he was stroking himself as he went down the steps. He continued stroking his clothed erection as he went inside the hotel, the maids stopped to stare as the doorman just looked away. The Inuzuka loved making people around him uncomfortable, especially the other band members.
Sasuke shook his head and waiting for Shikamaru to get out of his seat. Shikamaru got up and stepped in front of him with a bag strap over his shoulder. The other two band members were in front of them. As he waited for the small line to move, he tapped his foot. Soon the line started moving with the bus driver as the last one off, carrying the bands luggage, he followed them to the lobby of the large Hotel. Red carpet covered the floors and many people were coming and going. There were employees wearing small square hats carrying bags of different shapes and sizes.
They walked up to the front desk and the bus driver gently lowered their bags and went back to the bus to park it in the parking lot behind the hotel. Everyone within the nearest 10 feet radius knew who they were. A couple of females walked towards Sasuke with a small pad of paper and an ink pen.
"Can we have your autograph?" A blonde haired girl asked as she smiled big at him. Both she and her friend extended their pad and pen towards him. He sighed and took the pen and pad and signed his name before going to the next. Once the females were satisfied with having his autograph, they giggled and left, turning their heads to still be able to look at him.
Sasuke turned his head toward the other band members; a bellboy had come to get their luggage. "This way, please." He said as he walked towards the golden elevators. They followed behind the bellboy, who held the elevator door as Sasuke slowly walked towards the movable machine while staring up at the painted ceiling.
"I don't have all day, so move your ass!" The rude bellboy half yelled.
Sasuke snapped his head back to the bellboy, a shock expression on his face that matched his fellow band mates. He dumbly walked forward into the golden box and leaned against the elevator wall, crossing his arms over his chest. He continued to stare, wordless, at the blond bellboy who was wearing a goofy square red hat and matching uniform with golden buttons and black straps.
The blond ignored the raven-haired man who was staring at him, he hated stares. He looked up at the flashing lights and numbers, his finger tapping against the handle of a grey bag as he waited for the number 10 to flash. The number flashed and binged as the door opened. The band moved out first as the he waited. The raven pushed himself from the elevator wall and once he was out of the elevator, he turned and brought his leg up to kicked the blond in the gut, sending him flying backwards into the bags lying on the floor.
Five bags cradled his fall; he blinked up at the raven haired male. This guy could kick his ass without breaking a single drop of sweat. He was lying in an awkward position over the bags, his legs spread apart. In between his legs was a larger bag, another bag was behind him, holding him upright. The blond soon glared up at the raven, he was totally in disbelief with this whole situation. But he knew one thing; he hated this guy with all the passion that flowed through his veins.
Sasuke stared down the bellboy; he was definitely going to call up the manager about this incident. He turned his head and moved away from the glaring blond. He heard a few noises indicating that the bellboy was trying to get up. Sasuke went to the room 1890, the door was already open. He went inside and first noted the king sized bed, laced with gold trims. "Why is everything gold?" Sasuke asked to the empty room.
"Because it reminds people of gold bars, thus making them think that they're rich and can pay for things that they don't really need." A voice called behind him. He knew that voice belonged to the bellboy.
He heard a heavy bag being dropped to the ground. He turned too glared at the guy behind him. "Be careful with my bags moron."
The blond rolled his noticeable blue eyes at Sasuke's angry ones. "It's just a bag full of clothes."
Sasuke widen his eyes a mere fraction of what they usually were. "How would you know? It could have been something fragile?" Sasuke looked at his bag and noticed the zipper was halfway open. "Did you just look through my bag?!" Sasuke pointed at the bag that suspiciously looked like someone had been inside, rearranging his belongings.
The blond's mouth gaped open. "No! It was already open!" He protested at Sasuke's claim that he was some kind of thief. He dropped a second bag thus pissing Sasuke off even more. The bellboy picked up three bags and moved them to the other rooms that belonged to the other band members. Tossing the bags to them he went to walk back down the hallway.
Catching the blond off guard, a dark figure pulled him inside a room by a strong grip on his collar. The dark figure then threw him against the wall. "Where is it?" The husky voice demanded.
Blue eyes snapped open. "What the hell is wrong with you? I didn't take anything! Let go of me or I'll be forced to use force on you!" He declared with his eyes narrowing at the face that was way too close to his own.
Sasuke tch'd. "Force, huh?" Sasuke smirked as he reached for the blond's pockets. After digging through the first one and being unsuccessful, he went for the second pocket.
The bellboy started to struggle while in his hold. "LET GO OF ME, HELP! PERVERT'S TRYING TO RAPE ME!!" He screamed and kicked.
"This is your so called force? Seriously?" Sasuke asked incredulously.
The blond smirked. "You'll see...HE'S GOING TO RAPE ME!!"
There in the distance was the rumbling of what sounded like feet, and then he heard women's voices. Sasuke's eyes roamed the hallway. He looked back at the bellboy. "What the hell is that?"
The blond smirked knowingly. "The hotel is having a convention for raped and battered women that are trying to empower their members by teaching them self defense." He said as a group of prostitutes came into view.
"Get off of her, you monster!" One prostitute threw her hand bag at him.
"But he's a he. Oww stop that." Sasuke replied, trying to defend his actions.
A second prostitute hit him with her peruse on the back of his head. "Let her go! I'll use force..." She yelled as she heavily stomped on his foot.
Sasuke let the blond go and back away from the group of women. One prostitute wrapped an arm around the girl, hugging her close to her. The two prostitutes glared at him, he put his hands up in front of him to protect himself. "No means no. No means keep your hands off her you gross pig of a man."
The blond blinked. "I'm a boy."
The prostitute snapped her head and looked at the obvious male in her arm. "WHAT!" The prostitute let the blond go. Now both of the prostitutes were glaring at the blond instead of Sasuke. "You're NOT a girl?" The both asked at the same time. The blond shook his head.
"MEN!" One prostitute threw up her hands in frustration. The two prostitutes shook their heads and left. "Do want you will, raven." A prostitute called from the hallway.
"Wait...I need protection!" The blond pleaded. He looked shyly at Sasuke; he chuckled quickly and dug through his back pocket. "H-Here."
Sasuke narrowed his eyes at the backstage pass in the blond's hand. "No, no, no! You need to pay for what you've done, Dobe."
