Hello, readers!!! Here's a little fanfiction I thought of--hopefully no one else has already done something with this idea!! :( Anyways, hope this doesen't suck!!! It was kind of quick writing, so...

*I do not own Ghost Hunt in any way, shape or form*

----------------------

Upon hearing the door open and close out in the front office, the narcissistic teenage ghost hunter Naru looked up from his black notebook.

"Sorry I'm late!" his assistant, Mai Taniyama, yell.

He glared at the wall, towards where he'd heard her voice. He hated it when she was late. "Tea, Mai!" he shouted.

"I'm on it!" she called, sounding breathless.

Naru suppressed a sigh of frustration. How she always found a way to be late, he had no idea. But it annoyed him to no end. He picked up his notebook and tried reading again, but he found himself unable to concentrate on the written words and instead thinking about his clumsy assistant.

Mai drove him insane. She was always late, and she was always saying things to put him on edge or irritate him.

Naru scowled as he heard her loudly greeting Lin in the other room. That was another thing about her that bugged him: she was noisy.

Mai started babbling away about something from the kitchenette, and Naru tried to block out her chatter unsuccessfully. That was yet another thing: she would never shut up about things that he didn't want to hear about.

The door opened, and Mai popped in, a teacup in hand and a big smile on her face. "Here's your tea, Naru!" she said happily.

Naru didn't say anything in reply and just took the tea. He could just imagine the curses she was throwing at him in her mind at the moment.

Thinking this, Naru gave a slight smile. She was so cute when she was angry. It always made him want to laugh when she got annoyed when he didn't use proper manners with her.

He took a sip of his tea, and the good, familiar taste flowed over his tongue. Mai always did make good tea…the best tea he would ever have anywhere…

The door opened once again out in the main office, and he heard Bou-san's and Ayako's voices fill the office. He heard Mai greet them and begin to talk with them ecstatically. Pretty soon the three of them were filling the rooms with bright, bubbly laughter.

Once more, Naru gave a small smile and sipped his tea. That was another thing about Mai: she could always make people happy and bring light into the office.

Naru went to take another sip of his tea and realized it was already gone. "Mai, tea!" he yelled.

"Right!" she called, and he heard her jump to her feet. She came in and took away the teacup so she could refill it.

For about the 10th time, Naru tried to read the notes in his notebook again. Also for about the 10th time, he found that he couldn't focus on anything but his assistant.

She always jumped up at a moment's notice.

She always smiled.

She was either smart or a complete ditz; he couldn't tell which.

…She always made him smile.

It really was good to have her in the office.
