A fanfiction by Aoi Kitsukawa.
Disclaimer: Ghost Hunt is belongs to Fuyumi Ono-sensei, I only borrow the characters in the light novels/ manga/ anime. Please enjoy reading it!
Summary: AU. Like wave uncompleted without beach, so life uncompleted without love. Tanyama Mai, 19, was an orphan who was sold by her nasty guardian to the brothel but she managed to run away. Shibuya Kazuya, 20, a son of a Duke, was frustrated upon his father's plan to marry him with other noble's daughter. Both of them met and by mistake, making a horrible mistake that changed their life forever. What exactly happened to them?
Author's Note: I don't know why or what's wrong with me, but I believe it must be due to the exam stress and exhausted that I'm suffering right now. I put Curse Gift temporarily on hiatus right now due to the current situation which makes me unable to think for the Nakagawa case; however I got this idea based on one of the novels that I read in my country.
This second story of mine is an Alternate Universal; same characters but different time, space and dimension but still maintaining certain themes and plots so I guess it's my own to make these things up! Maybe there will be some mature contains inside of this story so in mean time, I will put this into 'T' first before changing into the 'M' side.
Urgh! Somehow I feel like I'm turning into pervert… Stupid idea!
Have a good time reading and don't forget to review!

Wave 1: What is happening?
A girl with a pair of brown eyes slowly opened her eyes as the sunray hit directly on the face. A soft sigh escaped her pink lips, before licked it with her tongue. Her brown hair was messy, went to many directions as she rolled over the bed and closed her eyes back, pulled the warm pillow next to her into her embrace, which returned her embrace.
…
Wait a minute? WARM PILLOW?
She immediately snapped her eyes opened and sat up. Much to her surprise, laid next to her, was a young man who was sleeping soundly. His hair was black jet, mess just like her, and most of all…
He was half-naked, covered by blanket up to his chest.
That girl gasped as she saw an unknown man, sleep together with her on the same bed, without any clothes on his body. She looked around and saw that a pile of clothes; mostly his and hers, lay on the floor. Even her undergarments were laid on the floor, helplessly.
Then the reality hit her.
She started to feel pain between her legs, and much to her shock and fear, she was naked, just like the young man next to her. Grabbed the blanket and held it close to her chest, shaken hands slowly lift up the blanket and looked down to her legs, trying to make sure something that she really did not want to see or happen to her.
She saw blood stained down her legs and on the cover. She started to breathe heavily, her tears started to pile up, and then she did something that commonly girls in her current situation would do.
She screamed.
A woman in late 30s was sipping her tea while reading a newspaper when suddenly she heard a loud scream, followed by some noises on the upstairs of her house.
"KYAAAAAAHH~!"
She choked her tea upon hearing the scream before coughed terribly. As she put down her cup and newspaper down on the table, she quickly went outside the kitchen and went fast to one of the bedrooms on the second floor. Her black, silk hair that reached her shoulders and bangs that cut into middle flew gently as she took each of the steps on the stairs before her feet stomped on the floor of the second floor.
She grabbed the doorknob and she swore, that time, she could hear some arguments between man and a girl. Sighed hopelessly, she pushed the door off and let herself involved into something that she never thought, but not impossible to happen, happened in front of her eyes.
"What the hell are you thinking you're doing? Screaming like that in the morning! Urgh! My head hurts…" Growled the young man as he half sat from the bed, other hand held his head.
"THAT'S SUPPOSE TO BE MY QUESTIONS! WHO ARE YOU? HOW ON EARTH ARE WE HERE? NAKED LIKE THIS! GET OFF! OOFFF!" Screamed the brown hair girl in panic, as she held the blanket closer to her body.
Good thing that the blanket was larger and longer than usual, or otherwise, another world war would happen!
The woman really felt wanted to laugh if she did not see the situation in front of her. Normally she would do, but right now, the people she was facing right now was not someone that people should be mess around.
Especially that boy.
"How should I know? I also want to know…IZUMI-SAMA!" Said the young boy as his eyes went wide as well as the girl, so shock to see who was standing at the door at all time.
Oh great, now she see and hear everything, then it's the end of the world for both of them!
The woman named Izumi smirked as she walked closer to the bed, "Well, I should say that I'm quite impressive young man, on how things turned out like this…"
The young boy narrowed his eyes as he heard Izumi's words. For those who did not know her very well, she was a woman with many hidden abilities, and one of them was on how she managed to manipulate people according to her will.
Damn it! Of all people, why would it must be her?
"Although I'm a bit embarrassing how it turns out like this but…" She said as she turned around and looked at the pale, crying young girl. "What is your name dear?"
Her voice was soft and gentle, just like a kind mother, that it was able to make the poor girl looked at her and said in shaken, "Mai…Taniyama…Mai…"
"How old are young Mai-chan?"
"Nine…nineteen, ma'am…" She said, still crying.
"I see…" She said, as suddenly they heard some footsteps running towards the room and revealed a young boy at the age of 18, in front of them.
"Oka-san! I heard scream! What is…WAAAARRRGGHH!" Shouted the young boy as his face turned red 100 % before a sound of smack was heard throughout the room.
SMACK!
THUMB!
"HOW MANY TIMES I TOLD YOU EITAROU NOT TO BURST INTO SOMEONE'S ROOM! HAVE SOME MANNERS WILL YOU?" Shouted Izumi as she punched her OWN SON, much to the youngsters' surprise.
"Go…gomen…oka-san…" Meek the poor boy as he held his bleeding nose.
"What is going on here, oka-san?" Asked the son.
"That's what I'm trying to found out! I want to answer on how this thing is happening right now!" Claimed the young man as turned around from the poor girl.
"At least consider Mai-chan's feeling you arrogant brat!" Said Izumi in stern voice as she threw his clothes right on his face.
Eitarou at the same time handed Mai's clothes; was using his power without touching them as his face was blushing in red. He quickly went out of the room after Mai took her clothes and left into the small bathroom, which located inside the room. Izumi left the young man after telling both of the pair to go down to the living room where she and her son will be waiting there.
Slowly rose to his feet, the young man pick up a robe that was placed inside the closet when he suddenly heard small cry from the bathroom, alongside with the sound of the falling water from the shower. His irritated face slowly fell off, and was replaced by a sad expression on his face. Deep inside of his heart, he felt regret for what had happened, but he knew that he shouldn't blame everything to the poor girl since none of them knew what exactly happened and who should to be put on blame.
He then left the room and went to another bathroom, before preparing himself for another deathly torture that will came from the elder woman, who was waiting for them in the living room.
Imai Eitarou, and his mother, Mizuno Izumi or Imai Izumi (sometimes his mother would use her maiden name (1) for some reasons) sat next to each other in the living room, opposite to them were Taniyama Mai and the 'arrogant brat'. Eitarou puffed his cheeks as he remembered what kind of name his mother had used on him, thus making everyone's eyes looking at him. He quickly apologized and looked at his mother, as he knew his mother wanted to deal this matter than he himself believed to be a serious matter as well.
"So…that's what happened, huh?" Asked Izumi as she crossed her arms and eyes closed.
"Yes…" Said Mai, paled and upset.
Izumi leaned herself again the sofa, tried to think what she should do. Although she was not a noble person by birth, however she held something that even the noble people unable to archive, no matter how hard they try. Something that she was actually unhappy with it, which unfortunately had been inherited by her son Eitarou as well.
Eitarou looked at his mother before his eyes fell on the pair in front of him. The girl Mai quickly fell down her head, while the man next to her looked away from him. Eitarou, although he was only 18, he knew more than these two had experienced in life.
It was not that he did not understand the situation in front of him, however, as a teenager who slowly moved into the pre-adult life, he knew what had happen should not left behind like that. He knew the consequences would be fell on the girl terribly, while the guy can easily left the problem behind. Why? Of course, because he's a guy and she's a girl; common answers that he got when he faced with this kind of problem.
Which of course, he wanted to kill this person if he wanted to do the same thing as this one-san (2) in front of him.
"You have to take responsibility on her," Said Izumi which making everyone's head snapped and looked at her.
"And why is that?" Asked the man as he stood up, looked very angry.
"That's because you're already SLEPT with her you idiot! Are you wanted to leave her like that after what had happened?" Said Izumi as she narrowed her eyes, looked very angry.
"It's not my fault if she's fall on me! It's not that I want to be as good looking as I am now."
Mai's head snapped and then she looked at the guy next to her, looked wide. She was angry when she heard it was not his fault to steal her innocent away, but the next thing she heard has make her to look at him in closer way.
He was young, probably in 20s, and he had a gorgeous looking face with pale skin that seemed to match with his jet black hair. He was taller than her, his lips were pink and what had made her fascinated was his deep blue eyes that shone with mystery as well as deep blue ocean. She never saw such beautiful eyes in her life, so it was right about him not wanting to be good-looking guy from his own will. It seemed mostly like a gift from heaven.
However something flickering in her head; this guy seemed not willingly responsible on her after what happened huh?
Started to feel angry, she stood up on her feet and shouted to him much to everyone surprise.
"SO YOU WANT TO RUN AWAY FROM YOUR CRIME, HUH NARU?"
Everyone looked at her with wide eyes as silent suddenly wrapped the once 'hot debate are' in the living room. Everyone's eyes were glued on her, making her felt very uncomfortable with the current situation. It was not until the man looked at her and asked with calm but serious tone, "What did you just call me?"
She looked at him with shock, before spoke, "Naru…short for narcissist?"
Upon hearing her answer, after such a long silent Eitarou burst out his laugh as he clenched his stomach and rolled on the floor. His mother also laughed but less hysterical than her son, while 'Naru' looked at her with a look that she could not understand at all. It seems like a moment but, for Mai, it seems like she saw some kind of sad and missing feelings that reflected in his deep blue eyes.
"It's a good name to you too, nee 'Naru'-san?" Said Eitarou as slowly sat up from his roll.
"Enough laughing?" Asked Naru as he sat down and crossed his arms with scowl on his face.
"Sorry, my bad…" Said Izumi as she sighed. Really, this is something new! She thought in her heart. "Let's continue with our discussion."
"What should we do, Izumi…san?" Asked Mai, afraid. It seemed that these three people knew each other; Izumi was Eitarou's mother and both them knew Naru as well so she was the only stranger between them.
Wait a minute; did she just call him, Naru?
Well, he did not bother to tell her his name so that should be his name from now on, said Mai within herself.
Unknown to her, Eitarou just smirked as he heard her thought. (3)
"I know this will create problems if we left this matter just like that, Naru," She said as she looked at Naru. He seemed tense upon the name 'Naru' before he sighed and nodded his head.
"Mai is alone and as an adult, as well as someone in high position than you, I can't let any of you let go of this matter without holding responsibility. So I come out with a plan which can benefit each of you as well as responsible with each other," Said Izumi as the teens looked at her with question face.
"And your solution is…?" Asked Naru with uneasy feeling. 'Somehow I don't feel quite good about this.' He thought.
"Both of you should get married as soon as possible!"
Everyone then sighed in relief after hearing what Izumi had said, but then, Naru and Mai, as well as Eitarou quickly snapped and looked at the adult woman with shock expression on their faces.
"YOU SAY WHAT!"
Hahahaha! Cliffhanger! Sorry mina-san, love to continue this but I'm running out of time, got some urgent things to do! Both Izumi and Eitarou are my OCs, but I'll explain this matter in the next chapter. Sorry for not able to make the situation happening, just couldn't do it.
I hope that you people enjoy this story, and please read and review. Meet again in the next chapter. Ja ne. –Aoi Kitsukawa.
Hints or Explanations:
(1) Maiden name –A maiden name is a name when a single woman still uses her family surname before marrying into another family. Mizuno was Izumi's maiden name, as her married name is actually Imai.
(2) Mai is older than Eitarou –When Mai told Izumi that her age was 19, Izumi had told her son that he's a year younger than Mai. That was why he called Mai as nee-san; it is a sign of respect towards someone who is older than he is.
(3) Eitarou can hear Mai's thought –This is actually had something to do with his ability, which was mentioned by Izumi in her previous monologue. This is something that we call as Telepathy ability, which a part of ESP ability. Commonly we know only Gene and Naru had this connection but in Eitarou's case, he can hear other people' thought as well.
