Summary: Gaara is a dancer, a stripper, and Neji is always there to watch him dance. NejixGaara, SasukexNaruto

Chapter 03: Hey! I know you!

"Naruto." Neji greets upon entering, before taking his usual seat at the bar.

"Neji." Naruto greets in return, nodding to the white eyed teen while preparing the drink he knows Neji wants.

"Say, what is this I've been hearing?" Neji asks as Naruto shoves him his drink. "Gaara danced this midday?" he continues, taking a sip of his tequila.

Naruto nods. "Hai, he dances twice a day now, it's a wonder he can still move." He says with a frown. "Temari used to tell us that he uses the day to relax his sore muscles before he dances again at night."

"Ah…" Neji takes another sip of his drink before his eyes widen. "Wait, Temari?"

"Hai." Naruto grins, pointing at the blonde waitress. "She's Sabaku no Gaara's older sister."

Neji looks at Temari. "No way…" he whispers.

"Ne, Tem! C'me over here!" Naruto calls, placing two drinks on the bar.

"Oi, I was taking an order." Temari scowls.

"Hai, hai, hai." Naruto replies, waving it off. "Table 7." He says, pointing at the two drinks.

"Say, Temari." Neji speaks. "Do you happen to know one Hyuuga Hinata?"

"Why?" Temari asks suspicious, checking Neji over.

"She's my cousin." Neji replies.

Temari grins. "No way! I thought you were related! You have the same eyes." She laughs. "Let me guess, if you're her cousin, have long dark hair and are quite a looker… You must be Neji, right?"

Neji smirks. "Hai. Hinata once showed me a picture of you, it's a shame I didn't recognise you before."

Temari grins. "Hai, same here, she talks about you from time to time and how you come to this bar. I had my suspicions, but I guess I never acted on them in case you were someone else."

"Erm…" Naruto clears his throat. "I hate to interrupt this, but Temari. A new group arrived, and table 7 is starting to look ticked off."

"Oops." Temari grins sheepish. "Well, I tell you what." She says turning to Neji. "If you stay for another hour or so, my shift will have ended, and we talk then, k?"

Neji nods. "Sure." 'Maybe I'll see Gaara…'

Temari sends a wink in his direction before taking the drinks and continuing her job.

"Anou… Neji?" Naruto asks puzzled while making a drink for another person.

"Hm?"

"Do you have the feeling we're being… you know… watched?"

Neji looks at him strangely. "No, why?"

Naruto just shakes his head. "It's nothing, never mind."

"Gaara, why aren't you behind the stage yet, you have to be up in five." Kankurou scowls.

"Hai, hai, hai…" Gaara mumbles, applying the last of the blue make-up to go with the police outfit he is currently wearing. "And your shift started ten minutes ago." He adds bluntly.

"KUSO!" Kankurou yells, before running through the hallways to his post outside.

Gaara could take care of himself now, but he needed to check ID's. Personally, Kankurou thought the job as a bouncer was very boring when he just started. But after doing the job for almost a year now, he knows that it can never be boring.

Gaara snorts at his brother's retreating back, knowing that he lied through his teeth as Kankurou's shift doesn't start ten minutes after his own, but he just can't seem to care. He has to dance soon, so right now, all he really needs is his peace and quiet, and even though his brother is kind, he is not what you can call quiet.

Kankurou, Gaara's older brother by only two years works three times a week, and when he does, he usually hangs around Gaara a little, and Gaara always knows how to send him off. But Kankurou just can't really seem to realise that. What Gaara doesn't realise, though, is that there is one white-eyed bishie waiting for him to dance in two minutes. He does know that he has to get up now.

Walking towards the stage, Gaara ponders about how the three of them work at the same place at basically the same time. Them meaning the three Sabaku siblings who all applied for jobs there, and were hired with no real problems.

In fact, Orochimaru had been happy to take the three siblings in his club; Exotic Light.

Gaara is an expert dancer. He can move like the snake Orochimaru looks like and then some. He can make man and woman drool over his body and swoon over his eyes, even when he doesn't realise it himself, but he makes the costumers come back every time, just to watch him.

Temari is an excellent waitress. She's fast, she's funny, and she knows exactly what to say to whom, making them order more and more in the hopes of seeing her again.

Kankurou is the best bouncer Exotic Light has ever had. He's strong, he's clever, and he can break up every fight that happens, mesmerising the faces of the troublemakers in case they try something again and keep them out for ever.

Yes, Orochimaru was very pleased with the siblings, and a lot of things were to happen before he let them go away. He knows about Neji's obsession with Gaara. He'll always come to the club as long as the red-head dances. Travelling through every weather circumstances and even going as far as cancel meetings he has to attend for the family company, but he will always be there to see his Angel dance.

He is one of the reasons Gaara is now dancing twice a day. The other reason is that Orochimaru gets a twisted pleasure from seeing the red-head snake around the pole so seductively, which is why the youngest Sabaku gets one of the highest payments of all the workers.

No one really cared about it. Orochimaru isn't a shitty boss that gives everyone less then they deserve, he gives them more then they deserve even, so all of them can live normally without having to be afraid of any financial problems. If people want to take more shifts because of those, they have a lot of change for that happening, and why shouldn't there be?

Exotic Light is by far the most popular club around, and the people that worked there could enjoy the popularity together with Orochimaru. He didn't care, he'd have his money. After all… Orochimaru only hired the best, and the Sabaku siblings were definitely the best.

Hehe, after Corvin being so nice to whine about it, here's chapter 03. Seriously, you have her to thank for it o.0"
