So, I decided to do a collection of oneshots :) Some may be influenced by songs, others may not.

I. Finding You

-"I'm safe, I'm sound, when you're around"-

|4 Real, Avril Lavigne|

She ran through the forest, pushing branches out of her way. They clawed and cut at her skin, and blood was running down her arms. Still, she ran, ignoring the pain. She had to find him. She couldn't let him leave without hearing her answer. She caught a glimpse of black in the distance and willed herself to go faster. But it seemed that the faster she ran, the farther away he was. Finally, exhaustion caught up with her and she collapsed onto the ground, unable to continue any longer. She heard him call her name and then all went black.

Mai opened her eyes, wincing in pain as she turned on her side. She looked down to see her scratches and cuts on her arm. Pushing the pain aside, she sat up and got out of bed. She started to get ready for the day, ignoring the jolts of pain that ran through her arm. The dreams had started becoming more violent lately. About a month ago, what happened in the dreams started to affect her in reality. At first, she would just wake up with just a few small scratches. It soon escalated into wounds, cuts, and bleeding. She couldn't stop it, nor could she control it.

When Naru had left Japan, all happiness left her dreams. She no longer had dreams about cases, and Gene never appeared in any of her other dreams. Soon, she started dreaming of Naru, and she had put it off as a result of missing him. Her most recent dreams were the same. She was always chasing Naru, getting hurt in the process.

Locking her door behind her, she headed for a nearby café. Opening the door, she groaned inwardly. She had gotten there too late. The seats were all filled up, including her favorite seat in the corner, by the window. Sighing, she made her way to the counter.

"A cup of green tea, please." The lady behind the counter nodded, walking away. Ten minutes later, she returned with a cup of hot tea. Handing over the money, Mai walked to a wall and leaned against it. She smiled, remembering the times when she would constantly make tea for Naru. She often wondered if he would enjoy this tea. She had always made English tea for him, so she didn't know.

"They call this pitiful thing tea?" A person muttered nearby in annoyance. Their voice broke her out of her thoughts, and she looked towards the speaker. He was facing away from her, but his appearance made her smile. He wore all black, reminding her of a certain narcissist. Now that she thought of it, even from the back he looked like Naru. His hair was the same length, and it framed his face the same way. He got up to walk to the counter again, but when he turned around, she nearly dropped her cup in surprise. She gazed at the familiar figure in confusion.

"Naru…" she whispered, shaking her head. Maybe the dreams had finally gotten to her and she was imagining him. He was supposed to be in England, not in Japan. There was no way that he would have come back, not after she had made such a fool of herself in front of him. But he walked past her, not even noticing her. She watched as he exited the café, saying something about a waste of money to himself.

Setting her tea down, she ran out the door, searching for him. She saw a glimpse of black around the corner, in the direction he had left in. She ran, dodging people, desperately needing to find him. She didn't care if this was just another dream. She wouldn't give up. She had to find him.

"Naru!" she shouted, as she recognized his face in the crowd. He turned around, his blue eyes instantly locking with hers. From that day on, she knew nothing would be the same ever again. She had a feeling that the dreams would stop. Because of him.

She had finally found him.

How was it? Please review and tell me what you think!
