THE PERFECT CRIME: A GHOST HUNT DRABBLE COLLECTION PRESENTS:

Calendar Dilemma

Prompt: It is that time of year again.
Fandom: Ghost Hunt; Mai x Naru x Gene

"Mai!"

Waking up with a groan, Mai pulls herself out of bed and rubs one eye while yawning loudly. Looking over at the alarm clock she finds it reads 2:35 AM in bright red coloring. Rolling her eyes she moves from her spot in the middle of the shared king-size bed, slips on her slippers, and heads over to the living space.

"What?" She yawns already annoyed at her two lovers. The said two lovers are sitting at the dining table fully dressed and having a staring contest over a pile of papers.

"Mai, would you tell Gene/Naru that this is the best calendar for our office!" Both thrust up their calendar option to her face.

"Ugh," she groans rolling her eyes while the calendars block the Davis twins view. Looking over she sees that Naru has chosen a calendar that is science themed while Gene picked a Ghostbuster theme. Pushing the two calendars out of her face Mai asks, "Why is this important at two in the morning on New Years?"

"Because tomorrow when we open up the office we'll need a new calendar for appointments!" The answer comes in unison. Oh, joy, Mai thinks, this is gonna be a long morning.

She moves over to the couch and takes a seat. "Arguments for each calendar," she asks while taking her head into her hands knowing this scenario all too well –she's gonna play tiebreaker.

"Well–"

"Oldest first!"

Gene sticks out his tongue at Naru while still behind Mai's back.

"I believe that a Ghostbuster theme calendar is perfect for our office because it can help a client relax and maybe even smile –something so many of our haunted cliental need –and it show that some of us in the office know about fun. Plus it's just one little calendar, so what's the harm in having one decoration that is not super professional and scientifically driven?"

"Naru."

"A Ghostbuster theme is absolutely a horrible idea, it will completely ruin the credibility we are trying to build with our cliental as a serious research group. Only an idiot–"

"Naru!"

"What I mean to say," Naru continues putting up his science calendar, "is that putting up something that already matches the theme is best to keep with the rest of the office space."

Taking a deep breath Mai thinks for a moment, and then stay silent for seven more. Two in the morning –they deserve worse. And then a thought comes to mind…

"You two do realize that the calendar is kept on the wall by my desk right?" Mai smiles for the first time in the New Year.

"Awe, how cute, Mai. Though I have to say I am surprised that Naru of all people allowed for this to the new calendar of the office for 2019." Ayako says flipping through the bright colored pages of the Hello Kitty 2019 Calendar. "I didn't even know you were a fan."

"I'm not really," 'but it's the best form of payback.'
