Here is the second chapter! Thank you for all the lovely reviews! This is still dedicated to the fabulous Corvin even though she had me send her the unbeta-ed chapter because she wanted it right then and there. Oh by the way just to tell you, Kyoko acts differently around different people, so if her personality seems really different that is why. No she is not bi-polar.
Warning: Shonen-ai/Yaoi also known as slash and boy on boy action. Don't like don't read! That and Gaara, Kyoko, and Sasuke cuss, they have dirty mouths, you can take that anyway you'd like. There are some also sexual situations.
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
Beta-ed by Red Deep who is also one of my best friends! She rocks my socks off! That and the nicknames I use were made up by both of us. Princess is the main one I shall use. I don't know if I'll use the other ones in my story but I might.
Chapter Two
Gaara turned around to see white eyes staring at him in question.
"I'm looking for the bathroom," Gaara said lying, slightly shocked.
"In the main office?" Neji said raising an eyebrow.
"I was going to ask where they were," Gaara said thinking quickly.
"Oh, I can show you," Neji said motioning for Gaara to follow him and he did as they walked down the hall. "So, may I know why you are here?"
"I wanted to see what your school was like, but I didn't know if I had permission to come during school hours or not," Gaara said glad that Neji didn't question anything he said.
"I see," Neji said nodding slightly. "Here is the bathroom." Gaara looked over to see a long hall with couches and chairs on both sides and a couple bookshelves filled with books of various genres. Two doors were at the end with signs indicating which was for women and which was for men. Gaara started down the hall knowing he had to at least go into the bathroom to not make Neji suspicious of his lies. He glanced behind him when he heard footsteps to see Neji following him. They both went inside and Gaara stood in front of the urinal very aware of the eyes watching him. "I thought you had to the bathroom."
"I do," Gaara said. "Why are you watching though?"
"Nothing better to do," Neji said with a shrug.
Gaara said nothing and just stood there hoping the Hyuuga would grow bored and leave to wait outside. He may love and be obsessed with the boy, but he didn't like being stared at as if he were a show on television that someone was watching because there was nothing else on. He saw movement in his peripheral vision and soon he felt a presence behind him, feeling warm breath on his neck.
"Do you need some help?" Neji asked. Gaara said nothing and just stood there, not sure of how to respond. Neji took his silence as a no and reached around the boy and unbuttoned his pants. He was about to pull down the zipper when someone else entered the bathroom.
"Neji we need to go. Oh… Sabaku-kun what are you doing here? Am I interrupting something?" Sasuke asked shocked and confused at the scene before him. Gaara cursed and thanked the Uchiha for causing Neji to stop, he was positive that Neji wasn't feeling anything at the moment and was just bored. He didn't want it to be like that, he needed to get the Hyuuga interested in him.
"No not really. We can leave now," Neji, said letting go of the zipper and walking over to Sasuke. "Sabaku-kun needed help, so I was helping him."
"Sure," Sasuke said not completely convinced. "Let's just go." The two boys left leaving Gaara alone in the bathroom fuming. That fucking Uchiha keeps taking Neji away from me! He will pay. Gaara's eyes hardened into a glare as he punched the wall. Smirking when he managed to leave a fairly large dent in the otherwise perfect walls. He needed to relieve some anger.

"Gaara I don't think this is a good idea," Kyoko said watching the red haired boy rummage through her garage.
"Naruto is more than willing," Gaara said looking up from his search though the junk.
"Then why did you have to tie him to a chair and gag him?" Kyoko asked.
"He told me he wanted to," Gaara said.
"Right," Kyoko said sarcastically. Gaara just glared at her before finding what he had been looking for. "Dude, why were you looking for my old dresses?"
"You'll see," Gaara said smirking.
"I am afraid."
"You should be," Gaara said walking into Kyoko's house and into the kitchen where Naruto was tied to a chair. "I found your outfit Naruto."
"You're going to make him wear it?" Kyoko asked shocked. Gaara just nodded and Naruto made noises of disagreement that could not be understood because of the cloth gagging him. "But it's going to be too short and really tight and oh my god are you going to have Naruto seduce the Uchiha?"
"I'm glad you're finally catching on," Gaara started trying to think of a way to get Naruto into the dress without him escaping. "I want the Uchiha to be busy with him so he stays away from Neji."
"Well, since it doesn't involve killing animals I'm willing to help," Kyoko said. "You hold him in place and I'll get the dress on him."
Naruto's eyes widened and his protests were muffled as the ties were removed but Gaara held him in place. Kyoko then pulled off his pants laughing at the boxer's the blonde was wearing. Bowls of ramen decorated the bright orange under garment and she giggled as she removed the blonde's black shirt. She then slid the dress up his legs and onto him. As she had said it was short on him. It reached mid-thigh and was tight. The dark blue dress had long sleeves that were supposed to hang off of the arm but instead fit him perfectly and was not tight but not really loose either. It was a Chinese style dress, which had the high collar the attached with the small ties that ran down it. Kyoko tied the five ties on it before admiring the dress. It really was beautiful with the silver Kitsune that was stitched into it on the bottom right of the dress.
"Aww, Naruto you look so pretty!" Kyoko said giggling. Angry eyes and obscured screams were the blonde's reply. Gaara decided he could remove the gag now and as soon as he did the blonde began yelling.
"NO! I WILL NOT DO IT! I'M NOT GOING TO CROSSDRESS OR SEDUCE THAT BASTARD!" With that the angry boy stormed out of the house without even changing out of the dress.
"Do you think he'll notice he forgot to change back?" Kyoko asked Gaara.
"No," Gaara said feeling very irritated at his plan being ruined. "Kyoko we need to ruin the Uchiha."
"More stalking or breaking in?" She questioned.
"Breaking in." Gaara said with a nod as Kyoko sighed and followed him out of her house.
"How did I get involved in helping you stalk people and break into homes anyway?" Kyoko asked trying to think back to when she had first went with Gaara.
"We were both tailing these two guys and we met up behind a fast food stand because they turned around and we both agreed to work together," Gaara answered while walking up the street.
"Oh, well I was following them because they were hot, why were you?"
"They stole a shirt from me that I had stolen from Neji," Gaara said simply.
"My goodness you are obsessed with him. But of course you had to love and obsess over the hardest guy to follow!" Kyoko yelled and a few people looked over at them from across the street. "We are talking about famous people! It's not like you don't obsess over them either! So fuck off!" Kyoko said flipping them off. "Well now I feel better!" She said smiling happily.
"The Uchiha's house should be only a few more blocks away," Gaara said looking at the piece of paper he had taken from his pocket.
"Wait, how do you know where he lives?" Kyoko asked suspicion in her voice.
"I made a few phone calls," Gaara said not even bothering to look at her.
"You scare me."
"I'm glad," Gaara said turning down a street.
"That makes me even more scared," Kyoko said turning as well. The rest of the walk was silent until they saw a beautiful mansion in front of them.
"Wow! Sasuke is loaded!" Kyoko said eyes wide in amazement.
"Neji's home is nicer," Gaara scoffed glaring at his friend.
"Hey don't look at me as if I'm the traitor. Naruto is the one that likes him even if he is in denial of it."
"…True," Gaara said calming down. After that they went into 'stalker mode'. They walked close to the ground and through the foliage around the edge of the property making their way to the side of the house. They climbed over a fence and landed in a quite large side yard. Beautiful flowers decorated it in intricate patterns and created amazing designs, though it went unnoticed by the two teens that were quickly and soundlessly running across it taking cover behind a tree. With a few hand signals from Gaara they both sprinted to an open window on the side of the house and Kyoko boosted Gaara up through it before Gaara pulled her up and into the house. They stood silent listening for footsteps before continuing on. Whenever they heard someone coming they would duck into a room hoping that no one was in it. Luckily it seemed that no one was really home. So far they had only seen one maid and all the rooms they had checked were empty. After an hour of roaming the house they found Sasuke's room. They knew it was his room from all of the pictures of him and Neji in the room from various awards and events. Everyone loved the two boys and were glad to see how well of friends they were, but it made Gaara's blood boil seeing how close the Uchiha was to his Neji.
"Oh my god! Princess likes Shakira!" Kyoko gasped picking up a CD from the top of Sasuke's wooden desk. "He also owns the newest edition of laptops. He is so fucking lucky to get all this shit!"
"Princess?" Gaara questioned.
"I gave him a nickname so there!" Kyoko said sticking her tongue out at him. "I feel it fits him well, and oh my gosh! Is that a diary?" Kyoko ran over grabbing the book and opening it before frowning. "Aww that is no fun! I don't care about any of this stuff. Itachi sold my boxers on EBay blah, blah, blah. Neji blamed me for his hairbrush disappearing, oh that was your fault. Poor Princess, he's a loser!" Kyoko giggled continuing to look to see if she could find anything interesting other than what his mother or father had said.
While she did that Gaara was looking through his drawers and going through the stuff in his walk in closet. He found books, pictures, clothes, condoms, and pictures of Neji with little horns drawn on his head and evil written all over it. Though when he looked under the bed he found what he needed, shoes. Taking Sasuke's shoes he grabbed Kyoko and forcibly dragged her from the room despite her protests of not being ready to leave. Once they were outside the room, however, she was silent, leaving the house with no evidence of them being there, other than the missing shoes.
NejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaara
"So what are we going to do with his shoes exactly?" Kyoko asked.
"Frame him," Gaara said smirking, causing Kyoko's eyes to widen in fear.
"You aren't going to kill someone and frame Uchiha-kun for it right?"
"Of course not," Gaara said. He saw the relief wash over her before speaking again. "It is too time consuming to frame a murder of a human. However, tagging the school is another thing entirely."
"How would you know how much time it takes to commit a murder while framing someone else?" Kyoko paused seeing the smirk on Gaara's face. "Never mind I don't want to know. So we are going to tag their school?"
Gaara nodded enjoying the fear he could instill in his friend. He had never murdered a human, but he still had time to do that. He had just never really thought of a good and justified reason on why it was okay for him to do that.
"Is Naruto coming with?" Kyoko asked standing and stretching knowing that Gaara would want to do the tagging tonight.
"No, he likes Princess remember?" Gaara said using the nickname Kyoko had given him.
"Yeah, Blondie and Princess are made for each other. They both get blamed and yelled at!" Kyoko said laughing.
"Which is why I'm making sure Princess stays away from my Neji," Gaara said glaring at nothing in particular at the thought of Sasuke spending time with Neji.
"You are a very jealous person, you know. If I were Neji I'd be afraid."
"Then shut up and be happy that you aren't."
"Why are we friends again?" Kyoko asked.
"Because everyone hates you," Gaara said scowling at the girl ruining his mood.
"Oh thanks, that makes me feel loads better," Kyoko said pouting.
"Your welcome," Gaara said, walking into his room. He grabbed a black backpack before walking back out. "Let's go."
Kyoko was still pouting but nodded. She was looking forward to causing mischief. They both stepped out into the chilly night air and shivered at the cold air that blew past them. Then they began walking off into the night towards Keio High School.
NejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaara
"Your feet look so big in those shoes!" Kyoko said laughing uncontrollably at the sight of Gaara wearing shoes three sizes too big for his feet. "But you know it makes it seem as if Princess has big feet or something, except I know that you just have small feet and are short so your feet are supposed to be smaller."
"Stop laughing," Gaara said glaring at the girl. "Or else I could always frame you too."
"Okay I'll stop," The girl said instantly quieting her laughter.
Gaara made sure to walk through all mud and dirt, checking to make sure that they imprints were visible enough, but not too obvious. Then the two preceded to graffiti the walls. Kyoko using black and blue writing random words like, princess, rich boy, and denial. Gaara however using black and red spray paint was a little more creative writing, Sharingan, the name of the Uchiha's worldwide business corporation, and drawing the Uchiha seal/trademark. Once they had both finished their defiling of the school's property they walked a safe distance from the school before changing their shoes. Kyoko had been wearing flat shoes that had no design imprints on the bottom so she didn't have to worry about being found out for many people in the area wore size seven shoes. Gaara just changed back into his black combat boots carrying Sasuke's shoes as they made their way to the Uchiha's house again. This time they tossed the shoes in the garbage; Gaara didn't even worry about fingerprints because he had been wearing his gloves just as he had when he entered the school and the Uchiha's house.
"Well that was pretty fun!" Kyoko said once they were a safe distance from the Uchiha home.
"I guess," Gaara, said not really caring for defacing property. He liked destroying things more than just coloring them.
"I can't wait to see what happens!" Kyoko said before rambling on some more, but Gaara just blocked her out as they walked home.
NejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaara
Okay well now we are going to go back in time and to show you what Neji and Sasuke were doing while all of this happened.
NejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaaraNejiGaara
"What were you doing in the bathroom with Sabaku-kun?" Sasuke asked as they walked out to Neji's car.
"He didn't know where the bathroom was so I showed him, and then he needed some help, so I was helping him." Neji said unlocking his car and getting inside.
"Well that's not what it looked like… Don't you find it suspicious that he was here?"
"No," Neji said. "Why must you be so untrusting of others? All Gaara was there for was to see what our school was like, just like we did today," He said as he started the car and driving out of the parking lot and down the street.
"I'm not untrusting, it just doesn't seem normal. Why didn't he just ask us about it before we left?" Sasuke said as Neji sped up and made a sharp left.
"I left rather abruptly and maybe he didn't think of it until we had already left," Neji said defending Gaara. Though he was only doing it for the sake of proving Sasuke wrong and making him seem stupid.
"You just don't want me to be right," Sasuke said narrowing his eyes and shifting his gaze to Neji. Sasuke was not one of the school's top students for no reason, even if the Hyuuga did better than him.
"Now why would I want that?" Neji questioned not wavering in his confidence the slightest.
"I wouldn't know," Sasuke started turning back forward to brood silently to himself. "Only you would."
"Well I have no idea why you would think I'd want that, after all I am your friend, although I feel that you may need some mental help of some sort. You are far too untrusting and paranoid, I mean you think everyone is against you." Neji said confidently while trying to and succeeding from keeping a smirk from forming on his face.
Sasuke just growled slightly as silently fumed and opted to stare out the window in hopes of calming down. The silence was nice and Neji was quite enjoying it and wouldn't have said anything, except he doubted his own vision at the moment.
"Is that Uzumaki-kun?" Neji questioned in slight disbelief.
"That dobe?" Sasuke said looking in the direction Neji was to see what surprised him so much. His body froze in shock before heat filled him and pleasurable tingles pulsed through his abdomen. Charcoal black eyes glazed over as he stared at the blonde boy closer and closer into focus as they drove down the road. He admired the lean yet toned body the boy had and that was clearly shown off by wearing the short dress that clung to his skin. Though he found himself thinking of how beautiful the blonde looked in the dress, he also found himself wanting the dress to and any other clothing on the blonde to be gone. For he was quite sure that the boy naked, right below him, might be one of the most beautiful things he'd ever see.
Neji smirked as he saw Sasuke's eyes glaze over in lust as they drew nearer to the boy. The blonde was stomping down the street anger apparent on his face; it was as if the boy wore his emotions on his sleeve. The furious look in his blue eyes made them seem to have a red tint to them. His hair was mussed and a deep frown was set onto his face. He was glaring at the ground in front of him not even aware of the car coming towards him on the street.
"Neji pull over," Sasuke said finally managing to form a coherent sentence despite his currant state of lust.
"No," Neji said his smirk widening. He was going to be able to torment Sasuke and have his way at the same time; killing two birds with one stone came to mind, as he pressed a little more onto the gas pedal.
"Why the hell not?" Sasuke said lust clouding his mind as he let his frustration be released through speech.
"I can't afford to be late to this appointment," Neji said simply as the Uchiha growled and glared sharply at him before he noticed that they had already passed the blonde.
"Never mind, forget I said anything," Sasuke said still in a state of want and lust that was slowly fading and being replaced with anger and disappointment. He would have to find a way to see the blonde some other time. "What is this stupid appointment for anyways?"
"My hair appointment," Neji began enjoying the look of rage and murderous intent that appeared on Sasuke's face. "I feel my hair's perfection is far more important than you getting laid, even though you are in desperate need of it. I'll see if I can get you and Blondie alone some time." Sasuke was still livid at missing his chance for Neji's hair, but he calmed somewhat at hearing his friend's words. After all Neji had too much pride to make a promise he wasn't planning on keeping. His image physically and the media world were far too important to him.
"Fine." Sasuke said glaring heatedly at his best friend for the rest of the drive to the hair salon.
Once there Sasuke said nothing and coldly glared at any who approached him while Neji sat in the black leather chair with his personal hair consultant, Kaguya, standing behind him staring in deep thought at Neji's hair. Her green eyes lit up in excitement right before she began to speak.
"I've got it! We can give you a trim as always to rid your hair of any split ends and then use this new shampoo we got to help revitalize your hair's lovely brown color and finally deep condition it because it's getting a little on the dry side."
"I agree, let's get started right away," Neji said nodding as her slender arms reached for the vinyl black cloth that she placed around him to protect his expensive clothes from the small hairs that would fall when she snipped them off. After making it was comfortable but securely on his neck she grabbed a spray bottle with water and a comb and began the process for cutting his hair. She would spray his hair and the comb through it a few times before spraying another part and then combing over it. Eventually his hair was damp yet combed through perfectly before she set the spray bottle down and swapped it for her scissors. The clean metal gleamed in the expensive florescent lighting of the building as she combed down through the hair before stopping about half an inch from the bottom and slicing the hairs below the comb's teeth off. She did this over and over until Neji's beautiful brown locks were perfectly straight and even free from any split ends that might have begun.
"Great job as always," Neji complemented as the girl smiled and nodded excitedly.
"Well I just feel so lucky to get to work with hair so gorgeous as yours," She said with a bright smile.
"You have nice hair yourself," Neji said getting up from the chair as Kaguya removed the material from his neck.
"Not really, it's so plain and boring," Kaguya said grabbing a lock of her long midnight black hair inspecting it and just seeing her hair healthy as always. She sighed and placed the vinyl cloak in a pile of other needing to be washed before walking across the salon with Neji trailing her. "So do you have a preference in smell? We have it in vanilla and strawberry," She said holding up two bottles.
"Vanilla," He said sitting in the chair Kaguya had set up. "Strawberry is far too girly and annoying to smell."
"Okay," Kaguya said as she placed the strawberry bottle back onto the shelf across the wall. She then lowered Neji's head back and turned the water on thoroughly soaking his hair before turning it off and squeezing a good amount of shampoo onto her hand before lathering it evenly through Neji's hair.
"Now we are going to wait five minutes to let it set in and I'll be back when it's time to rinse it out, so relax and if you need anything Yoko will get it for you," Kaguya said motioning with her hand to a young girl with black hair that faded into an orange from an attempt at bleaching her hair blonde or so Neji suspected. Her black eyes looked nervous and unsure and she rocked uneasily back and forth on her feet. Neji nodded and Kaguya walked away leaving Yoko with Neji.
"I'm Yoko," Yoko blurted out before putting a hand to her mouth thinking she was going to be scolded.
"I'm Hyuuga Neji," Neji said smirking a little at the girl's insecurity.
"Oh…" Yoko then dragged the toe of her white sneaker back and forth across the ground and looked down face tinted slightly pink. "You're really pretty."
"Thank you," Neji said debating whether or not to tease the little girl. He saw her breathe a sigh of relief still a little nervous but looking much more relaxed and decided not to, since he didn't think tormenting a child was very kind and it would make him look bad.
"Your welcome!" She said cheerily. "Do you need anything?" She asked remembering her duties.
"Yes actually I do," Neji said smirking. "I need you to go over to that black haired boy over there and whisper in his ear 'Naruto is big huh?' okay?"
"Umm okay," Yoko said, not knowing what Neji was implying.
The girl could have been no older than eight or nine years old and walked innocently up to Sasuke ignoring the cold look and whispered into his ear. Sasuke's hardened look shattered as his eyes widened and his mouth dropped open in shock and his face turned bright pink. Sasuke's face then contorted into anger as he scanned the room looking for Neji and felt himself become even more upset at the superior smirk the Hyuuga was giving him. Yoko had run off back to Neji as soon as she had whispered into his ear not wanting to be near the 'scary man' anymore. Safely behind Neji she giggled at the facial expressions made. Sasuke was pissed this time.
"NEJI I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" Sasuke leapt from his seat and sprinted over ready to strangle his friend, but two pairs of strong muscular arms grabbed him.
"Sorry kid, but you can't kill people in our establishment," The first guy said. Both were tall and buff.
"Tohru put the kid down," Kaguya said walking over to them. "Uchiha-kun you really need to take some anger management courses and get some therapy. You are way too unstable." The man let go of Sasuke and he gave Neji a look of murderous intent before turning the look on Kaguya who just smiled and patted him on the head. "Now go be a good little boy and sit down while you wait for me to finish Neji's hair." Sasuke growled but nodded walking back over to his chair. "Okay Neji! Let's get the shampoo out."
She walked over to Neji and Yoko who were whispering to each other. Raising an eyebrow in question she stared at the two for a moment before clearing her throat.
"What are you two talking about?" Kaguya asked.
"Nothing," Yoko giggled hiding behind Neji.
"Yeah Kaguya, nothing," Neji said smirking. Kaguya sighed and frowned.
"Honestly you really need to stop being so hard on Sasuke and you are teaching my daughter to be like you," Kaguya said narrowing her eyes at the Hyuuga. "And even though you have lovely hair, your personality still needs some working on."
"What and yours doesn't?" Neji countered.
"Touché," She said smiling as she gently grabbed her daughter's arm and pulled her away from the boy. "Yoko, go and sit like a good little girl in the back room until I finish with Neji's hair and then I'll take you out for ice cream."
"Okay!" She said happily, practically prancing to the back room.
"What a lovely daughter you have," Neji said smirking.
"Your compliments are empty Hyuuga-kun," Kaguya said smiling kindly at the boy. "Although I wouldn't need your approval or acceptation of my daughter's loveliness anyway."
"You just upset because I wouldn't let you dye my hair," Neji said staring ahead bored as Kaguya rinsed the shampoo from his hair.
"So? I can still be upset over that if I want to… I feel you may be rubbing off on me. This could be bad," Kaguya frowned as she said this while rinsing the last of the shampoo from his brown locks. "Anyway I assume you will want the vanilla scented conditioner?"
"Yes." Neji said relaxing once more as Kaguya lathered in the conditioner.
"Okay, this time we only have to wait two minutes. I'm going to go check on Yoko so I'll be right back," She said and left once she received a nod. It would give him a few moments to think peacefully to himself.
He began to think back to what Gaara had said to him. They had been childhood friends, but he could remember nothing of this. In fact everything before his parent's death he could not remember. Everything that happened before they died registered as a blank in his mind. Could his family have just wanted to make him think he hadn't lost anything of importance and didn't want him wasting his future by dwelling on the past or did they simply just not know much about his past and just told him what they knew lying about the rest? Before he could think on this subject anymore Kaguya came back and rinsed the conditioner out of his hair keeping up small talk.
"So, hear any good music lately?" Kaguya asked gently working the conditioner out of his hair while it was run underneath the water.
"Hmm I guess I've heard some remotely decent bands," Neji said closing his eyes and relaxing into the feel of the water and hands massaging his head.
"And they are?" She prompted moving down to the ends of his hair to get out the last of the conditioner.
"The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and Anberlin both are commercial but have good lyrics to some songs. I recommend both if you like Pop Rock." Neji said not at all interested in the subject. Kaguya frowned at his words.
"So what music do you like?" She leaned in and focused on Neji.
"I don't feel it necessary to tell you." He said smirking as he heard Kaguya huff in frustration and run her fingers through his hair one last time checking for any conditioner she had missed and finding none turn the water off.
"What a brat." Kaguya said wrapping a towel around Neji's wet hair before they walked over back to the chair he had sat in for the trim and she quickly blow-dried his hair using a round brush that had holes in it to keep his hair straight and from getting frizzy. Once this was done Kaguya smiled in admiration of her work. To her cutting hair was art and whenever she finished Neji's hair it was like staring at a masterpiece. Neji nodded approving of her work before getting up from his chair and found himself in a hug, or more like arms wrapped around his leg.
"I'll miss you Hyuuga-kun!" Yoko said hiding her face in the materials of Neji's pants. Neji paused before patting her head a little.
"I'll be back in two weeks," Neji said giving her his charming smile. She nodded her head happily and bounced off chanting about ice cream.
"See you next time Hyuuga-kun," Kaguya said walking off after her daughter. Neji then walked over and dropped a few bills on the counter before leaving with a still slightly miffed Sasuke trailing behind him. They silently got into the car and Sasuke wasn't planning on talking to the Hyuuga at all so he turned the radio on just as a song began.
"When your only friends are hotel rooms
Hands are distant lullabies
If I could turn around I would tonight
These roads never seemed so long
Since your paper heart stopped beating leaving me suddenly alone
Will daybreak ever come?
Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands
I thought you said forever
Over and over
A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion
These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of Violins become my only friends
August evenings
Bring solemn warnings
To remember
to kiss the ones you love goodnight
You never know what temporal days may bring
So Laugh, love, live free, and sing
When life is in discord
Praise ye the Lord
Who's gonna call on Sunday morning?
Who's gonna drive you home?
I just want one more chance
To put my arms in fragile hands
I thought you said forever
Over and over
A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion
These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of Violins become my only friends
Friends
I thought you said forever
Over and over
A sleepless night becomes bitter oblivion
These thoughts run through my head
Over and over
Complaints of Violins become my only friends
I thought you said forever
Over and over
(And over and over)
These thoughts run through my head"
Neji then made a sharp left, slamming Sasuke into the door, making him cried out in alarm.
"What," He then turned to glare at Neji while rubbing his sore arm. "What was that for Neji?"
"I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Slamming me into the door!"
"Oh, I was just turning," Neji, said keeping a straight face. "I don't see why you always think everything I do is to hurt or anger you in some way."
"Sure you don't," Sasuke said with a final glare before looking out the window again this time with a tight grip on the arm rests in case Neji decided to make any more sharp turns. Neji sighed seeing that Sasuke was going to ruin his fun. Sasuke was just glad that another song came on and turned the music up.
"Is it any wonder why I'm scared?
If I was a little younger would I care?
Feeling like the walls are growing stronger,
I don't know if this cage can hold me any longer
You never dreamed you'd have to live your life so guarded,
Cause they'll find a way to make you feel discarded
I'm not afraid of tomorrow,
I'm only scared of myself,
Feels like my insides are on fire, and I'm looking through the eyes of someone else
I never thought they'd want me to go even faster,
Never thought I took my foot off the gas,
Everybody loves to be in on the pressure,
But I know they're all waiting for the crash
You never dreamed you'd have to live your life so guarded,
Cause they'll find a way to make you feel discarded,
Things have changed you've become a complication,
Can make it through another days humiliation
I'm not afraid of tomorrow,
I only scared of myself,
Feels like my insides are on fire and I'm looking through the eyes of someone else
Someone else...
Is it any wonder why the answer keeps me petrified,
Is it any wonder why,
I'm scared..."
Neji frowned but listened to the music and was relived when he pulled up into the Uchiha's driveway.
"See you tomorrow." Sasuke said getting out of the car, the raven-haired boy was still upset with his friend.
"Yeah." Neji said as Sasuke closed the door and walked up to the entrance of his house. Neji sat in the car waiting until Sasuke was inside before driving off into the direction of his own home.
Halfway to his house he saw Gaara and Kyoko walking down the street both seemed elated for some reason and a small smile was tracing Gaara's lips. Cute, Neji thought with a small smirk as he drove right by them.

Neji glared at the neon red lights of his clock and cursed Sasuke to hell. He liked waking up early but one A.M was not early, it was madness. The Hyuuga had trouble falling back to sleep once awoken; basically once he was up he was up. Neji glared a little longer at the numbers before pushing off his comforter and getting up and pulling on some clothes to go downtown.
Apparently there was a night watchman who would go and watch the school from nine P.M. to five A.M. and he had found graffiti and thus forth called the police who assumed it was Uchiha Sasuke because of what was written and then when searching any place he might hide something, found shoes covered in the same dirt as at the school where the tagging took place. Neji really did not have to go and bail Sasuke out of jail. He wouldn't have been in jail had he not punched the officer and was considered violent and out of control. But no he had to go and take his anger out on the police officer. Neji growled with frustration as he finished getting ready so he'd look decent before leaving and going downtown.

"Sasuke…" Neji said dangerously looking at his friend. Sasuke looked up with slightly pleading eyes.
"Neji, you have to help me out of here," Sasuke stood walking over to the bars of his temporary cell. "It is partly your fault for making me be so upset and get set off by being accused of tagging the school while I was with you at your hair appointment." Neji sighed in annoyance.
"Fine, I'll pay for you to get out," Neji said beginning to walk away. "I'll also clear you by telling them you were with me when the act was committed and that in no way could you be responsible for what happened and someone who was jealous of your power, status, or looks, most likely was trying to frame you."
Sasuke nodded. He was glad for once that Neji used his intelligence and quick thinking to help him out. Usually everything the Hyuuga did was to make his life more difficult or upset him. Though when it came down to it, Neji wouldn't turn his back on his friend. So he sat there and waited as Neji talked with the man at the desk.
Minutes later the man and Neji both walked over and he opened the cell.
"You're free to go, your friend paid your bail," The man said closing the cell as soon as he had stepped out of it.
"Sasuke do you need a ride home?" Neji asked biting back a tired yawn. Sasuke seeing this felt slightly guilty for having Neji come so early in the morning.
"No," Sasuke said. "I'll call Itachi. He'll give me a ride."
"Mhmm," Neji nodded. "Do you need me to wait with you?"
"I'm not your freaking girlfriend, I'll be fine on my own," Sasuke said growling, the Hyuuga was just so stubborn.
"No need to get so defensive Sasuke," Neji began walking away. "I was just trying to be a good friend."
When Neji was almost out the door Sasuke called out to him causing him to smile before closing the door and leaving the words 'You are a good friend' echoing in his mind as he walked to his car and drove home managing to get a few more hours of sleep before the next day.

"Neji bailed him out?" Gaara questioned into the phone he was using. His eyes narrowed at the answer he was given and he abruptly hung up. "Uchiha will pay…"
Picking up the phone again he dialed a few numbers and listened to a few rings before someone picked up.
"I need to know whom Uchiha's most loyal and obsessive fan girl is and if she has any pets," Gaara said grinning sadistically as he said this. The voice on the other end told him what he wanted to hear as he quickly wrote some things down onto a piece of paper before saying 'goodbye' and hanging up.
If he couldn't ruin the Uchiha's power, then he would ruin his social status and image.
