May 31st, 2016 Mai's P.O.V.
I smile as I walk through our house, packing boxes even though we have a few months before we leave. I finally convinced Bou and Ayako to come with me to England. They said they would come, but they would be working by themselves in the Ghost Hunting industry, mainly because they know I still yearn for Naru. I am just glad to know that I won't be alone in a new country. In August, I will not only be starting a new school, but I will also be interning as part of my scholarship, at none other then BSPR. This is the slight hiccup in my attempt to not see Naru when I go to Cambridge, considering he works in the building. As I break myself out of my thoughts, I think about all the things I need to get done before we leave on July 30th, which aside from packing up the rest of my clothing I am finished with. Though school doesn't start until August 15th, I thought it would be a good idea to get to England earlier and start to acclimate to our new environment.
July 30th
As we arrive at the airport at 5 in the morning, I feel a sense of foreboding, telling me that if I am to step on the plane, my life will never be the same again, and that something terrible will be coming into my life, as well as something great. As I continue to board the plane, I head straight to my seat and buckle my seat belt. On the ride to England, the only thing that I can think about is my past, something that I haven't thought about in years, something that I wished to never think about again. As I sit confined in a plane, I think about the day that my mother was murdered, I think about the man who I saw covered in her blood, and I think about the evil look in his eyes as he left me sitting in the house with my dead mother. I try to shake this feeling from earlier, I think of all the loving people that I have in my life and close my eyes to try and get some sleep on the rest of the ride to England.
Naru's P.O.V.
As I walk through BSPR I hear light chuckles, most of which stopped as soon as they saw me coming. I know that lately I have been worse than ever with my toleration of these lesser minded individuals. As Mai's arrival as an intern approaches, my mood seems to become more and more uncontrollable on my part. The idea that I may get to see her again both makes my heart soar and drop simultaneously. A part of me knows that she is important to me, however, another part of me knows that when I see her, I will do things that are entirely illogical.
My brain tells me that I have no need for a girl who will, more than likely, cause trouble and not listen. My heart on the other hand, does not like to listen to the logic of my brain. As I walk into the office that Lin and I share, I notice Lin snooping around my desk. "What are you doing Lin? Did my father ask you to find out why I have been in such a mood lately?" Lin slowly stands up and walks to his desk chair to sit down. The way he was looking at me proves what I have believed to be true for some time, he knew something about what was going on.
"Noll, I know that Mai is coming up here for school. A fact that she herself asked me to keep from you. I also know that, despite her better judgement, she decided to come here as an intern. Your father has recently informed me that she will be on our team, so you may as well get over whatever problem you are having, because she is coming, and you better behave yourself. Lord knows if she'll give you a second chance if you screw up this time." After Lin finished his speech I notice two things. One, he must still be in contact with Mai to know she was going to attend Cambridge, a fact that greatly annoys me. Two, he knows about what happened that day at the lake between the two of us, something that only we should have known. For a reason that I know but don't care to think about, I get a twinge of anger inside as I think about him speaking to Mai this entire time. This man who was supposed to be my friend has been talking to Mai, the girl I feel for, and has told me nothing due to her request that he keeps silent. You must remember you idiot scientist, everyone loved Mai, not just you. I jump a small amount in surprise at the voice in my head, that could only be one person. Gene…
