Karaoke Time, a ghost hunt fanfic

Mai stood at the stage ready for her turn at Karaoke. "I can't believe that you're making me sing this song." Mai muttered to Marsha. "Oh please. You'll do fine. I promise they will all drop dead." Marsha replied as she fixed Mai's outfit a little bit. Mai was wearing a black and white ensemble.

White shorts with black high tops that went all the way to her knee. The shirt she wore was close to a bandeau bra but covered her just a bit more than one actually would. She didn't know why Marsha insisted that she got her long hair cut in layers down and have her wardrobe change.

"Next up we have Mai Taniyama who will be singing. I Look So Good by Jessie James."

Oh so that's why

Marsha shoved Mai up the steps and went back around to where the rest of SPR including Naru, who she had no knowledge of being there. "Why do I get the feeling that this song isn't going to help with their little break up?" Gene whispered.

It was a shocking truth. The pair they'd thought would last forever had broken up. Actually Naru dumped her no one really knew why just that he'd done it. "It will in more ways than you'll know." Marsha said as she sat on his lap.

Hey boy I would of thought that when you left me

I'd be broken with my confidence gone…so gone.

Hey boy I would of thought that when you said that you don't want me

I'd feel ugly and sense something was wrong.

Standing in front of the mirror…my skin's never been clearer

My smile's never been whiter.

Everyone including Naru looked at her shocked at how well she could sing. Not to mention what she said was what they all kind of expected. Not to mention she never did actually do that.

I look so good without you

Got me a new hairdo

Lookin' fresh n brand new

Since you said, "that we're through"

No one could agree with that. She'd gotten her hair cut so that it was in layers around her shoulder blades and her clothing style had changed as well. Proven by the clothes she was wearing and the make up she had on her face. It's not that she looked slutty or anything but…it was amazing how well it described the situation.

Done…with your lies

Baby now my tears dried

You can see my brown eyes

Ever since you said goodbye

No one was entirely sure about this part of the song but decided to not ask her about it even if she felt good.

I look so good; I look so good without you

They all guffawed at this. They all know how much of a Narcissist Naru was and how he felt about that. (Now we switch to Naru's point of view)

Hey I'd never would of thought that when you left me

I'd feel sexy n so good in my skin again

*I wonder why she wouldn't feel that way when we were dating. After all I'm the most handsome man on the earth*

And I'd never would of known that

I'd be dreamin' so much better without you in my head

*Now I found that hard to believe but I guess it's possible. Wait a minute what's this feeling*

Standing in front of the mirror…my clothes never fit better.

My laughs never been louder.

*It's the same emotion I felt when Gene was supposedly dead* Naru stare up at Mai he felt sad. He'd lost something that meant so much to him and he'd thrown it away. It wasn't a mutual break up, she didn't break up with him, but he'd broken up with her.

I look so good without you

Got me a new hairdo

Lookin' fresh n brand new

Since you said, "that we're through"

He had to admit that she did look really nice in that outfit and her hair was pretty nice now that she'd gotten it cut like that. He missed her and he knew that he had to get her back.

Done…with your lies

Baby now my tears dried

You can see my brown eyes

Ever since you said goodbye

*Great I made her cry even better* (Switches back)

I look so good; I look so good without you

Now baby my body's lookin' better than before

Ain't bitin' my nails since you walked out of that door

"She bit her nails?" everyone asked Marsha. "Not that I know of." Marsha replied as she continued smiling and they all began to wonder how well this plan that had been put together would work.

I realized now I deserve so much more than what you give

Than what you give (than what you give...)

I look so good without you

Got me a new hairdo

Lookin' fresh n brand new

Since you said, "that we're through"

I look so good without you

Got me a new hairdo

Lookin' fresh n brand new

Since you said, "that we're through"

Done…with your lies

Baby now my tears dried

You can see my brown eyes

Ever since you said goodbye

I look so good without you

Got me a new hairdo

Lookin' fresh n brand new

Since you said, "that we're through"

Done…with your lies

Baby now my tears dried

You can see my brown eyes

Ever since you said goodbye

I look so good; I look so good without you

The rest of SPR stood up and applauded her for an outstanding performance. Marsha on the other hand took Naru's arm and led him away to speak with him.

"So do you want her back?" Marsha asked. "What?" "I'm not stupid. Do you or do you not want her back?" she repeated. "I do." he said though he hated to admit to it. "Than get up there and sing." she said shoving him on stage.

*What*

"Next up we have a Kazuya Shibuya singing Life After You by Daughtry."

Ten miles from town

And I just broke down

Spitting out smoke

On the side of the road

I'm out here alone

Just trying to get home

To tell you I was wrong

But you already know

Believe I won't stop for nothin'

To see you so I've started runnin'

All of SPR was shocked except for Marsha. Mai's mouth had dropped to the floor. He couldn't possibly be talking about her could he?

All that I'm after

Is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

And I think that

All that still matters is the love and the laughter

After the life we've been through

'Cause I know there's no life after you

"Is he really talking about Mai?" Gene whispered. "Who knows?" Marsha asked knowing full well he was.

The last time we talked

The night that I walked

Burns like a light

In the back of my mind

I must've been high

To say you and I

Weren't meant to be

An' just wasting my time

Oh, why did I ever doubt you

You know, I will die here without you

"Yeah he's got to be talking about Mai." Takigawa said and Mai felt like she would faint on the spot.

All that I'm after

Is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

And I think that

All that still matters is the love and the laughter

After the life we've been through

'Cause I know there's no life after you

"Oh god I can't wait to hear this next verse." Ayako said.

You and I, right or wrong

There's no other one

After this time I spent alone

It's hard to believe a man with sight could be so blind

Thinkin' bout the better times

Must've been out of my mind

So I runnin back to tell you

No one could help it they decided that when this was over they'd have to laugh.

All that I'm after

Is a life full of laughter

And now God knows what I'd do, yeah

All that I'm after

Is a life full of laughter

As long as I'm laughing with you

And I think that

All that still matters is the love and the laughter

After the life we've been through, yeah

I know there's no life after you

You know there's no life after you

No, no life after you, yeah

They applauded their friend as he got off the stage. Mai walked up to him and stood there with her hands placed in her lap. "So." he said. "So?" she replied as she looked into his eyes.

They slammed their lips onto each other's and shared a deep passionate kiss. "Woo hoo!" their friends cheered. "Now its time to laugh at Naru for the song I made him sing." Marsha said as they began to laugh. Naru had a dark aura around him but it disappeared when Mai continued to kiss him.

Who knew how well that plan would work out?
