Alright sorry for the long wait… it's a long story and if I go into it I may start crying. Anywhozle…. On with chapter 2~~~~!
It had been two weeks since Deidara had started at his new job. He didn't really enjoy it though it was good money, and the people who worked there were really nice. He couldn't complain about the business either, although when someone wanted a privet show, he would freeze and shake slightly.
"Deidara focus!" Temari snapped at him as he only misses knocking her to the ground.
"Sorry un!" Deidara squeaked. Naruto laughed from the bar.
He had been watching the girl trying to teach Deidara how to pole dance for the last hour and he found it just kept getting funnier. Temari shot him a glare for the umpteenth time. Today was a very slow day; no one had come in all day.
"Maybe we should close up early?" Kakashi yawned as he continued to read his book.
"Aw, now Kakashi, that's not very like you." A smooth voice called from the door. The four turned to see a red head standing in the doorway with a bored expression on his face.
"Gaara! I told you not to come down here while I'm working." Temari snapped.
Naruto was the one to pick up on the mistake.
"Temari, it's not Gaara, it's Sasori." Temari looked further into the poorly lit room.
"Oh god! I'm so sorry Sasori; you look like my little brother." Temari apologized. Sasori shrugged it off.
"What brings you here Sasori?" Naruto asked as he turned his attention from the stage to the red head.
Deidara shrank to the back of the stage. He still wasn't comfortable around strangers. Sasori watched the boy from the corner of his eye.
"I came down looking for Itachi, I assumed he'd be here." The red head stated with boredom lacing every word.
"I haven't seen him in weeks." Kakashi shrugged. Sasori sighed and ran his hands through his hair. Itachi had walked out on his friends a few days ago and Sasori had been the one who was sent after him.
"Useless Uchiha." Sasori muttered then turned to face Deidara. "So this must be that new kid Itachi was talking about."
"Yeah, this is Deidara." Naruto proclaimed as he moved from his chair up to where the second blond was and slung his arm around his neck. Sasori nodded then turned to Kakashi.
"How much for an hour?" Sasori asked his eyes were glazed and he didn't care about anything.
"How much have you got?" Kakashi asked. Sasori frowned at him. "We haven't figured out a price for him yet, he's only done one privet show."
"I thought Itachi had him two weeks ago." Sasori raised an eyebrow.
"He did." Temari stated. "Deidara freaks out every time someone orders a privet show and he can't do it."
Sasori thought on this for a moment then turned to the blond then back to Kakashi.
"I'll give you four hundred." Sasori stated as he pulled out his wallet. Kakashi stood in shock.
"For an hour?" he asked disbelievingly.
"Yes." Sasori handed the money over. "I'll pay in advance." His eyes fell on Deidara who was shaking with wide eyes. "Come on brat."
Deidara walked behind Sasori down to one of the privet rooms. Once inside he heard the lock of the door click into place and he froze, his body tensed and he began to shake. He didn't know what was going on. Suddenly he was curled in a ball beside the bed. He couldn't stop shaking or the tears down his face.
"Your scared aren't you brat?" Sasori asked with a bored tone.
"U-Un…"
"Don't worry I didn't pay four hundred dollars so I can fuck you. I don't need to pay for sex." Sasori sat on the bed. Deidara looked up with tears in his eyes.
"Then… why are you here un?"
"Honestly? I don't know." Sasori looked away towards the window. Deidara suddenly thought of something and stood and sat on the bed beside him.
"Do you want to talk about what's bothering you un?"
Sasori looked the boy up and down twice then sighed and looked up at the roof. It was true he had stuff on his mind, but he wasn't about to tell all his issues to an expensive hooker.
"Art. Art is eternal. Why can't life be like that?" Sasori asked as he lay on his back still looking at the roof. Deidara looked at the red head's face and then to the floor.
"I don't believe that Danna."
"What did you just call me?" Sasori asked finally looking at the boy.
"Danna, that's what I called you. You call me brat I call you Danna." Deidara shrugged. "And Art is not eternal, it's fleeting." Deidara looked at his hands.
Sasori sat up and glared at the younger yet taller boy. Deidara shrank away; he was absolutely terrified that something bad would happen.
"Art is not fleeting." Sasori growled. Deidara just looked away. "Stupid brat." He whispered. Deidara just looked away sadly.
"I'm sorry un."
"So Itachi was your first customer?" Sasori asked changing the subject.
"Itachi was my first time…" Deidara muttered his voice breaking slightly. Sasori sat up and looked at the boy.
"Brat why are you here? You look like your sixteen." Sasori began.
"I'm seventeen un. And I'm here because my dad has a contract with Kakashi." Deidara explained.
"That doesn't explain much…"
"I'm gay. My father hates me un."
Sasori exited the room with Deidara following. Their hour was up and Sasori and Deidara were finished talking. Kakashi bid goodbye to the red head and then looked over to Deidara.
"No break down?"
"No sex. He just talked." Deidara answered. Kakashi nodded and told him to take care of the bar while he went out to buy smokes.
After a few minutes a young boy walked in, no older then himself probably younger. He had black hair with pale skin and onyx eyes. His smirk was of self-satisfaction.
"Can I help you un?" Deidara asked.
"I'm looking for Naruto, is he booked?" the boy asked.
"No, he's out back, I'll get him un." Deidara answered.
"Don't worry I'll get him. Naruto!" the new male called out. Within seconds Naruto was out and in front of the new boy.
"Sasuke!"
"Sasuke is Naruto's regular. My regular is a guy named Shikamaru." Temari explained as she appeared behind the blond boy. Deidara nodded.
Deidara sat with Naruto in his room. The blond was trying to convince Deidara to come out with him.
"Come on. It's clubbing. Temari will be there."
"I don't feel like it un."
"Come on, we could pick up cute guys." Naruto continued to poke and prod at Deidara's arm.
Deidara really did not want to go out, or pick any guys up; it would feel too much like work. He couldn't understand Naruto's excitement; it was their first day off in a month because Kakashi had to be out of town for the day with an old friend.
"Why? I just want to stay here un." Deidara pouted.
"Because you have no choice in the matter." Naruto stated as he pulled the boy off the bed and onto the floor.
"I don't want to un." Deidara complained.
"Fine then, I'll just tell Temari…"
Deidara muttered under his breath as he and Naruto walked beside Temari towards the neon lights. The club was eighteen and over.
"How are Naruto and I meant to get in un?" Deidara asked as they stopped outside the door.
"Easy, we know the guy who owns this place." Temari shrugged as she dragged Deidara through the door.
The music was deafening the lights were blinding and Deidara couldn't breathe properly. Temari laughed and pushed him into the crowd of people who were dancing on the floor. It was her way of saying 'go have fun'. Sighing Deidara went with the flow of the crowd and allowed himself to be tossed from side to side until he bumped into someone and lost his balance falling to the ground. He looked up to see the guy he hit.
"Who the hell?" Muddy brown eyes met Deidara's blue eyes.
"…" Deidara blushed as he sat on the floor.
"Get up. You'll be trampled." The man held out his hand and Deidara took it cautiously.
"Sorry un."
"What are you doing here Brat?"
"Temari and Naruto dragged me, I wanted to stay at home un." Deidara explained looking at Sasori honestly. Sasori ran his hand through his hair again.
"It's not safe for a kid like you to be in a club. Come on, I'll take you home." Sasori led the boy away. Deidara followed like a puppy would.
"So why were you there un?" Deidara asked as he sat in the red heads car waiting for the engine to start.
"I own it." Sasori stated as the engine kicked into life.
