Disclamer: I don't own anything but the stuff that is lying in my room, wait half of that stuff technically I still don't own...sigh oh well...

This is the revised version of it, but most reading wont know since I changed it quickly. Sorry Luna for the crude language earlier, thank you for the input. So let the story begin!


Chapter 1

It was a normal day at SPR Lin typing away at his computer, Mai doing her filing, and Naru was just being Naru. All was quiet except for the typing all except for one person.

"Mai, tea," and then things got loud because Naru decided to tick Mai off yet again.

Lin's POV

Okay I came into work and thought I was going to get some work done but, I'm being distracted by two particualer teenager fighting yet again because Naru didn't say 'please' or 'thank you'. I wonder why Naru finds it so hard to say those two words to Mai. It's so stupid how many times can they argue over the same damn thing every day? Sigh Those two need to grow up for Pete's sake. You would think they were three years old again.

"That's it!" SLAM there goes Naru's door again. I guess he pissed Mai off yet again. Shit, damn it all to hell.

"Mai, more tea." Naru you are such an idiot I swear. One of these days Mai is just going to punch your lights out if you push too hard. Oh god dirty thought NO! Crap this is bad.

"Lin," I flinched as Mai put her head in my office door, "would you like some tea?" I couldn't bring myself to answer with my dirty mind so I shook my head no really fast. "Are you okay?"

"Yes Mai thank you for your concern." Shoot if she looked at me more closely I bet she could see my blush that stained my cheeks, stupid perverted mind. If I keep this up I might as well go home and sit on my couch thinking how to get Mai and Naru to finally admit they like each other, but knowing me it wont happen anytime soon it will only be a pass time. Everyone knows they just need to shut up and just admit it already, I'm tired of being distracted by those two yelling everyday.

"HEY!" Takigawa yelled as he entered the office. Geez is anyone going to let me work today? I guess he saw Mai fuming about her argument with Naru and my guess she told him about it yet again, "Naru what did you do this time?" He just had to ask that even though he knows what it was about, now everything is going to hit the fan. I should probably stop trying to work and just join everyone in the living area. When I got there I found a mad Naru (even though he was hiding it but I still saw it), Mai trying really hard not to laugh, and a proud Takigawa for making Mai feel better. I hope Takigawa doesn't say anything to make Naru any madder, who knows what could happen then. "Don't worry Mai, I guess arguing with you is how Naru flirts!"

"Bou-san!" Mai screamed with her face now beat red and Naru turned and slammed his door shut. I wonder how many times that door will survive being slammed like that? Maybe a few more weeks, only time will tell.

"Hey Lin! What's with the displeased face?" Takigawa asked me, you would think by now he would know not to expect an answer for a question like that. But he had the look as if he was waiting. So instead of answering I walked over to Mai.

"Mai is the offer for tea still on the table?" I asked her, she brought a smile to her face, and she shook her head yes; then went to the kitchenette and I heard a gasp come from Takigawa.

"YOU'RE HITTING ON MAI!" He accused me while pointing one of his fingers at me. I'll admit I was a little taken a back but geez come on, Naru asks for tea all the time. I let my mask slip a little and put a shock expression on my face. "Just kidding! We all know you wouldn't do anything like that to our little Mai." I took the shock look off my face and just stared at him.

"I don't do jokes." I told him and I was about to head back to my office.

"Lin," Naru called and instead of going to my office I went into his. When I got in there Naru was sitting at his desk looking at a request.

"Yes Naru?" I asked, all I want to do is go back to my computer and finish my work.

"I want your opinion on this request." My opinion, he wants my opinion?

"Um, sure what's the request?" I asked and he handed me the file. When I opened it up I saw a picture of a house and an address, then a list of names.

"There has been a series of deaths in this house and they want us to investigate." Naru rested his chin on his hands as if he was a mafia boss. To me this doesn't sound paranormal in anyway.

"Are you considering this one?" I asked, he looked down at his desk as if he was unsure.

"I am considering it but I'm not sure if I want to take it."

"How about you call the client and talk to them and go from there." I suggested I mean that's all I could do. It's not like I could go up to him and order him to do anything, I'm just here to make sure he doesn't get himself killed.

"I'll call them up and-" Naru got interrupted by a knock on the door. When the door opened Mai was standing there with a tray that had a cup of tea on it.

"Um…Naru here's your tea." With a nod of Naru's head she walked over a put the cup on his desk and was about to leave when she turned to me. "Don't worry Lin, I put your cup on your desk." With that she left Naru, me and the file to be by ourselves.

"Lin you may leave now."

"What are you going to do about this one?" I know I had no right to ask but the way he was acting about this was odd.

"I'm going to call up the client and ask for an interview and then we'll go from there." I had to make sure that my expression didn't change sometimes this boy amazes even me at times. I bowed and left the room to leave Naru to his phone call. If Mai, and the monk wasn't there I would have sighed and collapsed on the couch and start to wonder what intrigues Naru so much about this place and not just go back home. But instead making a trip to the couch, I went back to the safety of my office and my computer. After drinking all of my tea, and finishing most of my work I was debating weather or not to walk out there again. In the end I did so Mai didn't have to come and get my cup, because that would be to much trouble and everyone knows she has enough with Naru. When I walked out of my office I heard Takigawa and Mai was laughing about something. So I just went into the kitchenette and decided not to go socialize and go back to my computer but when I came out I saw that we had a new client sitting on the couch. THANK GOD now there something to do besides sitting around doing nothing.
