Hey there! I just felt like writing a new story. Well, since I'm not so good at romance, I decided to do one. :D Hope you enjoy it! Happy reading! Do leave a review! :) Most of them are short stories, somewhat like one-shots but since they are all related to Mai and Naru and SPR, so they are all combined in a single story instead of different postings.

A different plot than the usual ghost hunt, seemingly an alternate universe. :D

Disclaimer: I do not own Ghost hunt. No one on fanfiction does. XD

The first day of spring. Everybody graduated high school. Boring high school. Mai did too, but with a broken heart. She guessed so. She had confessed to her senpai (Upperclassmen or even sempai) and he had plainly rejected her, saying that he found her freakish for loving occult.

Was she freakish? Absolutely not.

A fun loving, extremely cheerful and cute girl. In her perspective it seemed so. Mai didn't hate the fact that she liked occult. Well, everybody has their own hates and likes. But she had a particular hatred for her senpai, the one whom she liked decades ago. He had called occult freakish, not her. Oh, well it didn't matter to her since this was her fourteenth rejection. Confessing to somebody seemed like job interviews for Mai. Getting rejected was just the daily life cycle for her.

Mai narrowed her eyes as she met his gaze. His brown eyes met hers. She walked towards him and stopped. She bowed and smiled at him. Warmly. But her warmth vanished as soon as he returned her smile. She glared coldly at him.

"Sorry for being freakish." Mai said with a highly cold smile on her face. She leaned towards his ears. "I will call the spirits to haunt you." He looked at her and began laughing, a not so convincing laugh. He seemed scared. Now, now- isn't Mai supposed to be fun loving, cheerful and a cute person?

"Stop joking Mai-chan." He said. Mai smiled.

"Sorry but I'm not qualified for being a joker." Mai replied. He gulped and began sweating.

Mai turned swiftly and met two blue eyes staring at her. He looked like he was going to burst out into laughter.

"Go ahead." Mai suggested. But understanding his character, Mai realized that her suggestion wouldn't get through him. He did laugh in his own way though. He smirked at her. Mai frowned at him and dragged him along with her. Envious eyes were following her consistently but Mai shook them off.

"Rejected again?" He mocked. Mai frowned.

"Try being a little nicer, Naru-chan." Mai commented. Naru- was supposed to be the mispronunciation of Noll, his nick name, but for Mai- It was short for narcissist. He frowned.

"Stop calling me that." He grumbled. Mai laughed.

"Like I would." Mai said and hit him on his back.

Naru was her childhood friend. Or rather, his older twin, Eugene Davis was her childhood friend. Naru's real name was Oliver Davis. The professor Oliver Davis of England. He used the pseudonym, Shibuya Kazuya for being protected from the Japanese media and of course to have his own privacy. Mai guessed so.

Only Mai seemed to know his secret along with Hara Masako, the famous medium or say television celebrity and the high school beauty of their class. She got to know Naru from Gene long time ago. He was unsocial, gloomy, and a huge narcissist and still is. Gene was the total one-eighty degrees opposite of him. He was social, lively, cheerful and kind.

Though Mai couldn't see through him, she managed to befriend Naru. She knew that she was the only one whom Naru opened up to after Gene's death, considering the fact that he talked to her more openly and even lent her money. Gene died two years ago in a hit-and-run mishap. His body was thrown into a nearby lake by the person who ran into him. His body was found two months earlier by Naru and he went back to England to do his final rites.

The only reason why Naru was still in Japan was because of his theory about Japan having more supernatural activity than England. He was the boss of Shibuya Psychic Research. His father, Martin Davis, was the CEO of the real one in England, Society of Psychic Research. A lot of information now.

Mai felt a little gloomier as she thought about Gene.

"Hey, Naru, which university are you planning to go to?" Mai asked. He shook his head. "No idea? I thought you would be going to Tokyo university." They passed through the exit of their school compounds and Mai cooed happily as she realized that she had just ended her high school life. They passed by different shops and candy stores. Her eyes twinkled as she spotted a candy shop. She looked at Naru with her attractive shining eyes, trying to coax him into buying her candies. But to her dismay, he completely ignored her. Mai pouted.

"..." Mai continued walking along with him when she came across a convenience store

"Naru, would you mind if I asked you to lend me some money?" Mai asked, finally. He sighed and glared at her. She pointed towards the convenience story. Naru shook his head.

"Eh?! I'm your friend! Come on!" Mai pleaded. "Fine, I'll return all your borrowed money by a year!" He continued glaring at her.

"Uh, by a few months." Mai finalized. "It is for your betterment." He sighed.

"Fine." He said. He rummaged through his pocket and gave her a thousand yen note. Mai narrowed her eyes.

"Stingy. Give me more." Mai ordered. He looked at her expressionless. "Five hundred more." He handed her the amount and waited for her outside. She went in and came out in a jiffy with two shopping bags in her hands. She showed him the bags containing her purchases.

"Tea for you and candies for me." She said childishly as she began suckling on one of her candies brought earlier. She found him eying her and offered him the candy. He shook his head slowly and she continued walking down the lane while he stood there watching her walk past with a smile on his face and started walking along with her.

Thanks for reading! Hope you liked it. The next chapter should be up soon I guess. :) Most of the chapters will be long. I suppose 1,500 - 2,000 words. :D This one was a little short because it's the beginning of this story.
