*no i dont own naruto :p unfortunately*
Sasuke stopped with his hand on the door knob for the third time this week. He didn't know why he kept doing this to himself. At this rate he would use up the rest of his food money on gas.
For the past few days, after class, he would come home and look at the email Kakashi had sent him. Kakashi was a close family friend to the Uchihas, and despite the family being at odds lately he still tried to keep an eye on Sasuke, helping him out when he could. This seemed to be his latest attempt.
The raven had driven through the busy downtown traffic each day to a part of town that he wanted to look down upon but couldn't say much because he was living in similar conditions. Each day he got here, parked, got all the way to the back door and...stopped.
Yes, he was hard on cash right now, with going to school and trying to keep a roof over his head. His paid internship during the days he didn't have class sounded like it would be enough but his barren cupboards begged to differ. He needed another job but when Kakashi said he had a night job to recommend to him he was expecting a 24 hour diner, or maybe sitting at a desk somewhere as security for some rich guys house, because Kakashi always seemed connected. When he showed up for his first day of work he wasn't expecting the large building with flashing lights, and a line of people around the building waiting to get in.
Stripping. Sasuke Uchiha had been reduced to stripping.
He didn't think he was going to be able to open the door tonight, like he hadn't been able to the past few days until he heard two ladies rounding the corner laughing loudly.
"Sakura, If Tsunade yells at us again for being late I'm going to tell her you held us up for your boy toy Lee."
Sasuke cringed at the high pitched voice and wished to whatever god that would listen that there was another exit to this alley. Unfortunately he was stuck, the clicking of heels growing a little slower as they noticed the other male paused at the door.
"Um excuse me, the entrance is at the front of the building, this is a private entrance." Sasuke turned as a pink haired girl and a blond crept towards him. Although once they saw that the young man creeping near the entrance wasn't some old pervert, but a cute dark haired man there was a drastic change in attitude.
"Unless of course you were looking for a little off duty attention," she leered, "Then I would be happy to give you a backstage pass." Sasuke sighed at the blond girl who, from that statement didn't seem to make wise choices.
"It's fine, I was actually just leaving." Sasuke said finding this to be the perfect excuse to get out of there. He couldn't be there, work there, with crowds more people which would act just like the two girls in front of him. Even if they didn't particularly look skanky at the moment...or look like they had any kind of drug problem, in fact, he almost wouldn't think they worked here in the first place.
"This isn't the place I was looking for, my mistake." was all that he said before returning down the now familiar alley towards his car. He actively ignored the huff from the blond, and the bubblegum haired girl's distasteful look to her friend at her bold behavior.
After weaving through the crowd, to get to his car to sit for a second, Sasuke almost growled when his car started but showed a bright orange light alerting him to his empty tank of gas. He was too far from his house to make it but he also didn't have enough money to fill up at any gas station that was close enough. He could call Itachi and ask him to come pick him up, or even loan him a few dollars, but the thought was already being rejected by his pride before the idea had even fully formed.
That was why he was in the situation he was now. Sighing, Sasuke pulled his keys from the ignition and got out of the car. He knew that it was coming to this and now he had no other option. He walked back down the alley, glad to see the girls must have already gone inside, and opened the door before he could even think about it and stop himself. He didn't know what he was expecting but he didn't think he'd be seeing a normal looking inside. It was a tiny grey strip of a room with a window on the side near the only other door. He walked up to the window and stared expectantly at a bored looking woman with dark purple hair, who seemed to be giving him the same look. Sasuke cleared his throat and decided he would have to speak or they'd be glaring at each other all day. "I'm looking for Kakashi." The woman sighed and sat up, grabbing a phone on the desk.
"And who are you?" she asked, her voice just as bland and bored as her face.
"Sasuke Uchiha." the woman laughed and picked up the phone, dialing a few quick numbers.
"So you finally got the balls to come in and stop standing out there?" she asked with a smirk, to which Sasuke only grunted, annoyed that she had been watching him these past few days, judging by the tiny computer to her left that showed a few different camera angles, the outside of the door being one of them.
Sasuke looked back to her as she spoke into the phone, most likely telling Kakashi he had a visitor. Whatever was said in return must have been a go ahead because she didn't say another word to Sasuke but pushed a button and jerked her head towards the door which gave a buzz of approval. Sasuke turned and pulled the door open, still not quite sure where he was going but would rather search around than go back and ask the desk lady for any directions.
This area seemed to be a bit more what he was thinking the inside of a strip club would look like. There were groups of people bustling around, women, men, some he wasn't even sure. There was the faint sound of music in the distance although he couldn't tell where it was coming from. He walked a little ways down the hall, avoiding people going in and out of doors, talking and laughing with each other, completely ignoring Sasuke's presence in the hall, which was fine by him, because he was struggling not to cough at the smell of perfume and glitter clouding his lungs, so he was sure he wouldn't be able to talk to anyone even if he had wanted too. Luckily he didn't have to wander for long because a familiar head of white hair came ducking out of one of the many doors, looking up at Sasuke with smiling eyes.
"So I see you got my email. I'm surprised you actually showed up." Kakashi remarked, talking a bit louder, so as to be heard in the loud hallway. Sasuke gave a familiar glare.
"I could always leave if you want, it seems like you are actually really busy." Sasuke didn't want to deal with Kakashi's joking banter today, not that he wanted to deal with it any other day, but he knew the older man was doing it just because Sasuke was obviously out of his element here.
"Oh come now, you know I was joking. Lets go to my office so we can talk." the pervert said as he walked toward a room just a few doors down. Sasuke took a seat in the chair across from Kakashi's desk, moving the pink boy shorts out of the way with a pen off the desk.
"Is it always this loud?" Sasuke asked already not liking this environment.
"Well Sasuke, this is a strip club, not your brothers office. I'm not sure what you expected, but it only gets worse from here. Its just Thursday." Sasuke stayed silent, he already knew this but that didn't change his annoyance on the loud and messy place. "Sasuke, does Itachi know you are here? Did something happen?" Sasuke cringed hearing his older brothers name. He hadn't talked with his brother about this, and knew Itachi wouldn't approve. Not about Kakashi having a strip club, but about Sasuke becoming a stripper.
"He doesn't need to know. He isn't my keeper." Sasuke bit out, finally meeting Kakashis eyes. "You said you could offer me a job here, so did I get it or not, and when can I start working?" Sasuke didn't want to sit here and tell his honorary uncle that right now he was too poor to even buy ramen noodles and had to frequently go into his roommate Suigetsu's stash more often then he was ok with, considering he hated the food in the first place. He needed this job and didn't want to drag out the process.
Kakashi looked like he wanted to push the situation more, ask what had really happened for Sasuke to finally accept the offer but knew the look in those obsidian eyes said he'd leave if Kakashi pushed his buttons anymore.
"Of course you have a job. You can start tomorrow. But you need training so can you come in tomorrow morning to start with our trainers?" Kakashi asked, to which he received a nod. "Ok then welcome aboard Sasuke, you are now a Jinjuriki."
