Chapter 1: Until he reply...

-x-x-x-x-x-x-

"Naru, I like you" She said to him.

Her heartbeat increase, cheek flaming up, and patiently waiting for his reply.

They were in his office, he got a few papers to file before left to England. This is her last chance to confess her feeling, even if he may reject her, she was ready to take what he gives, but maybe not ready enough.

He only looked at her, emotionless, before said " Sorry, I'm not Gene's replacement."

The words tore her heart to pieces.

Gene's replacement...

"I-I never thought of you as him..." She spoke softly and switch her focus to the floor. She can feel her tears about to come out.

No good, he's leaving in a few day, she got to see him off with a smile right...She managed to hold them in.

"Stupid narcissist jerk, you could at least say 'I'm not interest', IDIOT" She shouted at him, pout a little and cross her arms, try to act like what she thinks is normal.

He sighed. Messaging his temple and stare at her with his dark blue eyes, that can melt her with just one look, his dark hair and pale skin compliment each other perfectly.

'He's really handsome' She thought to herself and smiled a little.

She slowly walked to his desk, earning a disapproving look from him, but she didn't stop.

Her hand stroked his cheeks gently as she leaned over the desk and give him a soft kiss on the lips. His eyes widen.

His lips were soft, just like she thought they would be.

He was dazed by her action. But...it felt...really nice, experienced this new unknown feeling, he almost return her kiss.

She pulled away soon enough. Her cheeks were flushed red. He looked away and cover his lips with his fingers.

"I...I think I really am in love with you Naru." She chuckled sadly and added "not Gene" afterward.

Silence fell between them, but she soon broke it.

"Could you please reply to my feeling properly? So that I can..." She paused. "...I can give up on you" She finished.

Still silence.

"Just look at me in the eyes and said 'I don't like you' then I'll be off for good"

He still looked away, mouth shut, his eyes covered by his bang. She couldn't make out what expression he's wearing.

Did she makes him mad by kissing him? Oh no... she want their friendship to stay the same even after the confession.

Say something, Naru.

The hurt feeling bottles up again, and she doesn't think she can hold it much longer.

"Then tell me before you go...ok?" She shot him a fake smile and disappear behind the door.

She kissed him yet it doesn't satisfy her one bit. All the hurt feeling she been hiding start to make its way out, leaving her crying on the floor with her back lean on his door. Her heart ache badly and she can't control her overflowing tears.
She covered her mouth with her hand to keep him from hearing the sob that she made.

She's really thankful that there's no one but them in the office. She can cry to her heart content as long as Naru stay in his office.

She's hoping he would come out and hold her in his arms, comfort her and tell her that he love her very much, that he been lying to himself. She scoffed between her sob. If he do that he wouldn't be Naru, no, Shibuya Kazuya that she love.

On the other side of the door, he continued with his work as if nothing had happened. Trying not to notice the crying behind his door, but seems like that's not working because her crying images keep popping into his head.

His chest is hurting, makes him wonder why.

He has to do something, he want to made her stop crying, maybe if she's stop crying, the pain on his chest will go away. That's illogical, but still he doesn't care for some reason...

He never deal with a crying girl before, let alone the girl is Taniyama Mai, the stubborn, annoying, loud, and...cute, beautiful Mai -wait- what is he thinking?

The kiss seem to have affect on him more than he thought. C-could he actually falling in love with her? N-no, that's not possible.

He quickly shook off the thought. Love is an idiotic thing, he would never fall in love. NEVER.

He stood up and head to the door, but stop before twist the handle. Wait, what would he say when he see her? He just reject her confession, well not directly but he's still the reason that she crying.

What is he going to do?

He panicked.

The Naru panicked.

He accidentally blurted out "Mai, Tea"

So thanks for reading ^^

please review (I actually update faster if you review *wink* :P )

I haven't read the part where she confessed yet, for some reason Baka-Tsuki (a site where I read Jap. light novels' translation, just search it on google and you'll find it) took out those chapters.

So this is like my own version of when she confess. I didn't really know about the existence of Gene before I read a few long shot that mentioned him, so sorry if I made any mistakes regarding the characters.

Disclaimer: I don't own Ghost Hunt or the characters in it.
