Hi~ I'm a new fan of this series! (I know I'm very late since this anime is released on 2006 and Im currently 6 years old at that time but who cares? I'm in love with this now) I just regret that I haven't watched this earlier... Anyways, I really love Mai and (hahaha) Naru-chan. Although I like to imagine her with Gene. How cruel, aren't I? I probably said too much so I should stop. Oh really, you read this until here? How sweet of you... Now, you're reward... This story :P. Enjoy~

(••~•~••)

Please acknowledge: My knowledge is upto the anime only. I haven't read the manga yet but I should. Although I knew who Oliver and Eugene Davis is, Lin is Chinese, Madoka is adorable, Masako blackmailed Naru about his identity, John is so cute, Yasuhara is still himself, Ayako and Takigawa can make a cute couple... Or would they? Haha sorry I got worked up. Lastly, Naru rejected Mai and moved to Britain again with his foster parents, Luella and Martin. Correct me if I'm wrong... Spoilers are accepted.

Disclaimer: I told yah, just. a. fan.

1st shot - (( Ayako Matsuzaki - Witness of Naughtyness ))

A certain miko yawned as she looked at the windows of the newest shopping mall in town. She strolled the building as if she's a model doing a cat walk on stage. Many people thought that she's showing off, since a lot of us are very judgemental, yet others thought that she can actually try to model on a spotlight. Who would thought that the woman they're criticizing is a priestess and she's on her way to her thirties? (Shh no one should know that,okay?)

But that's not the problem here, it's her face. At that point, Ayako didn't care about her surroundings. Her face showed gloom, indicating that someone pissed her off yet again( No, it's not Bou-san). The brunette decided to entertain herself by shopping, since shopping always takes her mind away from those problems. It worked, yes, but she felt lonely and bored without Mai. She decided to take a break at the nearest coffee shop, where she's greeted warmly by its employees. A cappuccino was her order. This leads us to our current position.

'I should be having fun right now... Ohh where are you Mai?'

"Here's your order, madam~ Enjoy your coffee." Said the waiter as he winked at her. Naturally, normal Ayako will flirt back, but she didn't feel like it today. Why the hell did she went shopping, again?

Oh.

Oh.

Oh right.

Because of Mai herself.

She let out a sigh. Now she remembered.

flashback~

(( Ayako's PoV ))

There's nothing to do at the house today so I decided to visit the SPR headquarters. Half of the reason is because I feel like it and Mai's probably working there right now, and the other is for the free tea. Hey, don't look at me like that, It's a wise choice. I can save it for shopping later. Oh that reminds me, I can bring Mai with me. Haha, turns out this day will not be boring at all. I thought to myself as I fastened my pace. As I reached my destination, I took my cellphone and used it as an alternative to a mirror.
'Fabulous as ever, Ayako!' goes my self compliment. I didn't knock since I want it to be a surprise. I turned the knob as quiet as a culprit about to sneak in a luxurious house. To lessen the noise, I took off my sandals (I don't feel like wearing high heels today)

To my surprise, No one's around. Strange. Mai's always on the common room... Where is she?

Both my hands found their way to my hips and I breathed out a sigh. If Mai's not here, then she should be on the bathroom. I made my way there carefully as to not creating a loud noise. But my effort was wasted because she's still not in there.

What... is... happening...?

I searched all the rooms except Naru's. I knew she wouldn't be there because that narcissist won't let her in unless she delivered him her tea...

My eyes widened. I ran to the kitchen and saw the ingredients still on the table, indicating that Mai just made tea. I walked over to it and felt the water on the teapot. It was warm but its not that hot.

She made the tea, if I am correct, 10 minutes before I got here. But Mai should come out earlier... No, she cannot be on Naru's room... Maybe they fought and she ran away... But I should see her running off to somewhere if that really happened...

I grimaced at all the theories that pops to my mind. I can ask Lin-san to know her location right now but his own typing room can be accessed only by entering Naru's room since the only door is on the boss' room.

Maybe I can ask him instead...

Naru should know her whereabouts. But being Naru, he will probably answer me with silence, so I shook my head to erase that thought.

But after several attempts of thinking where that short haired brunette can be right now, I ended up going to Naru's office in the end.

I am just about to reach the knob when I stopped. She probably went home early... But I don't know her house..

Naru, stop that. She's still here.

Huh? Is that Mai?

So what? She'll leave immediately, everyone went home already..

And Naru?! Oh my... What is happening?

Still... She may come in..

She will not.. Trust me, Mai. Do you hear anything?

No... Well, that's a relief.

Now where are we, miss Taniyama?

I don't know, can you remember where we left, mister Kazuya?

Hm.. I think I remember.

I tried so hard to listen and tried my best to breathe. It's like I just interrupted a intimate moment and the atmosphere is making me pressured. Should I go?

Are you su- mnf!

Why did she stop?...Why am I enjoying this!

...shut up...okay?... just, listen to your boss. Now..

*thud* *thud*

What are you up to, Naru? Are you not contented on kissing me?

KISSING ME?!

That's just a warm up, darling.

DARLING?!

Oh re-?!

Is he kissing her now? Oh my gosh... But my motherly instinct flipped open on that moment. Yes, I know Mai's just 18 and Naru's 19 and they can do legal things but I won't let this escalate to a more intimate scene.

Quit doing that when I'm talking!

You know I always wanted to shut you up because you're always talking.

Really? Or you can't just resist m-?!

That's the third time... That boy..

That one too.

...Come here.

Okay I have to act now. I suddenly opened the door and my attention is suddenly directed to the two teens whose about to kiss. Naru encaged my daughter-like between a wall and him, and Mai's grabbing his scarf.

"Okay, what's going on here..." My voice is nearly inaudible as I saw what is really happening.

They both glared at me. I gulped.

"Get out."

I closed the door immediately and put on my sandals. I may have my mother instinct at that time but hell no I won't undergo that Naru's wrath... And Mai's. If they had done it, he better take responsibility and I will not retreat from him anymore if he won't. Oh how I wish they use protection. I went out as fast as I can.
Oh that girl... We really need to talk.

~/flashback~

And this leads us to the current Ayako situation.

'Does this means they're dating? How come Mai didn't tell this to me? And more importantly, Why Naru?'

She stared at the shopping bags she bought. Even though Mai manages to outrage her, she still bought her clothes. She really feel like a daughter to her. And the father figure is Takigawa. Oh wait did she just think of that? Ew. No. Why did she think of him?

"Well, it's actually true."

The priestess gagged as she took note that she's not the only one sitting on this table. She rolled her eyes as she looked at the person she don't want to see today.

"Since when did you got here, Bou-san?"

"A moment ago."

"Why are you here?"

"I followed you."

"Eh?! Why? I didn't know you were a stalker."

"I'm not a stalker, especially on you. I just saw you earlier and felt like something is wrong. Then I followed you."

"Oh... Wait did I say that thing about you outloud?"

"What do you think?"

"Urgh.."

Her mind drifted again to Mai. Well, if she chooses that raven haired boy, then she better be happy. Actually, they do look kinda cute, with Mai being short and Naru being tall. Haha.

Mai-chan's growing up...

"Oi old lady."

"Stop calling me that, monk."

"What are you thinking about?"

Ayako smirked for the first time this day. In fact, she didn't really got bored today. Based on the incident on Naru's room, she concluded that this day became quite... exciting.

Now, how will Bou-san react? Hm...


Yey done~ did you like it? Sorry for my grammar. Leave a review please! Naru, tell them!

Naru: No.

Bad. Mai you tell them.

Mai: But you just said it!

Ehh... I want you to say it!

Mai: *sigh* Please review and tell this author your insights about this pairing.

And what is the official ship name!

~Shishi Wistalia, out.
