Chapter 1

This started out as a simple one-shot but I'm expanding it to a 3 or 4 shot thinggy.

I OWN NOTHING! CHARACTERS DON'T BELONG TO ME (as much as I would like to have that much genius I don't)!

3rd person pov.

When Mai had woken up in her room that morning she had felt strangely unwell.

Her body felt like it had been pulled and stretched over night like rubber bands, and her bones, moved and played with like toys. Her lower stomach has also ached and prodded at her mercilessly, but in ignorance she got up out of her bed and dismissed it as malnutrition.

For breakfast, she had quickly attempted to feed herself a american style eggs with last night's leftover rice, but it changed nothing.

She pulled her arms over her head and stretched them towards the ceiling.

She jumped a little bit when she heard her back pop but quickly bounced back to her state of agony.

With one look at the time, she rushed to get her coat and take one last look at herself in the mirror.

She had stayed up late last night to prepare her outfit to go to lunch with her friends later on; she even tried it on several times to make sure everything looked just right. But as she looked in the mirror she felt off. Her skirt looked a bit shorter and her chest a bit larger, and instead of feeling concerned she had jumped up in the air in celebration.

'Finally,' she had thought, 'I'm finally growing. Take that Naru I wont be a midget for long!"

But in the midst of her inner celebration she felt another wave of pain from inside her, so on her way to work she stopped by at the pharmacy to grab a quick pain reliever.

Little had she known that there was entire leeway of choices just waiting for her decision.

She took her time comparing prices and brands with the symptoms she had been feeling, but her efforts had only resulted in her to being late to work with a decision she hadn't been adamant in making.

As soon as she had entered the tan-colored office she was met by the one and only scowling narcissist himself.

"Mai you have been working for me for at least 10 months, do you not understand what on time means? You don't even have school to blame today because this week they had a four day week for testing, remember?" In reply Mai just sighed and turned to hang up coat in retalience.

"Mai look at your employer when he's talking to you." Upon hearing this Mai's face heated up in anger and frustration and put her hands upon her hips.

She did as she was told and faced him.

"Watch your mouth Naru! And ill have you know I have a perfectly good reason for being late."

"Oh, do tell what is it, hopefully this time its accurate."

Mai's face boiled up even more at his snarky response and a wide range of emotions flew across her face.

Naru watched in amusement at his flamboyant little assistant, but as he looked closer something sparked him as odd. Mai looked…...different. It seemed like she had grown at least an inch overnight, making her hight go up to his shoulder. And even more troubling her clothes looked…..tighter, especially around her top.

'She really won't be a midget for long, will she?' Naru made a mental note to give her a lecture on proper attire for work but his thought process was interrupted by Mai.

"Well first off, you narcissist," she said with rapid handmovents, "the pharmacy had so many different options that it took forever to find a cheap but accurate one! Its impossible to make a decision at those stor when they have so many options! My friends usually buy me some because I don't usually know what i'm looking for so that just made everything harder. You wouldn't want your assistant sick on the job, would you?" Mai replied smugly but was soon defeated by his next comment.

"Mai I do give you sick days for a reason, you know." As Mai sunk down further into her deflation Naru got up and walked away.

Before he opened the door to his office he turned to her and said the two words the dreaded most to hear.

"Mai tea."

As quick as lighting Mai's mood shot back up and she let out a cry of frustration as she stomped into the kitchen.

'She really bounces back fast.' Naru thought smugly but quickly began to think of what his perky assistant had previously said.

'If she was sick should she really be here? If she was feeling sick she really should have just called, I would have bought her some. No wait, I probably would have had Lin do it, but hopefully its nothing serious.' Suddenly Naru snapped himself out of his thoughts in realization of the amount of concern he was having for his employee.

'Damn it, Oliver pull yourself together she's fine. If she wasn't she would have said something…...wouldn't she?'

Ok world wha'd yah think! Review and stuff cus I may be anti-social but I do listen!
