Well... Here is my first attempt at a Ghost Hunt FanFic. Hopefully I do well, I have seen the anime and read the last book so I pretty much know the whole story so there are Spoilers... There will be MonkXAyako, MaiXNaru, and possibly JohnXMasako. Welp, here's a go at a story!
My eyes opened and I was surrounded by darkness. A lingering warmth was still present from my dream. I slowly sat up, the comforter knotted around my legs in unexplainable positions. I threw an arm onto my bedside table in search of the light. But all I could think about in the darkness was my dream. The smiling faces and warm atmosphere. Lighthearted conversations in a well known office. And him. His smile. My eyes teared up. I tried to swipe them, but they kept coming like I had broken something internally. And I had. All because of that day. The day he made me choose. Him or Gene. And I had failed horribly. I froze. I wanted to yell that I loved him, but I was too shocked. I had never dreamed of him, I had dreamed of Gene. Everything that he had helped me with had been Gene's doing. And for that I didn't know if I was in love with him. And he left, just like a cool summer's breeze.
I shook my head in the darkness. How girly did I sound? 'A cool summer's breeze'? C'mon! Get a hold on yourself, Mai! I mentally kicked my self and tried to focus on something else. I swear I'm not one of those girls who goes all "Goo-Goo Ga-Ga" over a guy. I had morals! And Naru wasn't even nice to me? With all those dreams being Gene, he had even less going for him! I shouldn't feel like this, its been almost a year! I was on the verge of screaming out in frustration.
Everything had happened too fast. Lin and him leaving. Monk leaving. Ayako. John. Masako. Yasuhara. The names kept coming and each brought a new tear. I swiped my eyes again. I hadn't only lost him. I had lost everyone. Just thinking about it made my heart squeeze in ways it shouldn't. His face kept flashing in my mind, not Gene's smiling, his narcissist unsmiling face. I hadn't even had the courage to say his name yet. I should've realized how much I would miss him after he left. Not my dreams with Gene in them, but him. Him calling me names and rudely telling me to make tea, but somehow he would always do some small thing that really wouldn't mean anything coming from a normal person, but from him...
I groaned and threw my head back. I was hoping on it landing in my pillow, but sadly it landed on my head board. I rolled into a ball. Momentarily I was glad to be distracted my thoughts. But soon the pain dimmed to a dull throbbing and I was at the mercy of my tired mind. Thankfully I manged to find my alarm clock, I hit the light button and it's dim blue light read "2:13." I tried to ease back into bed and untangled my legs the best I could. Trying my hardest I thought back to my dream. Everyone smiling, except Naru and Lin who had their usually stotic look, and joking. Monk and Ayako were fighting about something trivial while John just laughed. Masako was trying and failing at flirting. And I was sitting in the middle, I was busy pouring tea. Everything was perfect. Just right. Thankfully I slipped into a peacefull slumber. But somewhere in between slumber and conciseness a mumble escaped my lips in a whisper. "Naru."
