Mai woke up by the muffling noise. She slowly opened her eyes and blushed as she realized that she and Naru were cuddling each other! She immediately sprinted away from him, but in doing so, she fell from the bed. Naru groaned when he heard a loud 'thud' in his room.

"Oww!"

"Mai, what are you doing there?" he asked

"Why am I in your bed?" she asked back

He smirk at her "You won't let go of me so I brought you to my bed."

Mai blushed ten shades of red. He faked a coughed to get her attention, and it works, Mai flashed a worried look. "Are you okay?"

"Tea."

"Okay, wait here. What do you want for breakfast?"

"Miso soup."

"Got it!"

Mai opened the door and her jaw drop from the scene, there are seven people in the living room, watching TV, making mess, laughing. Her eyes widened when he saw a person with the same face as the person lying in the room.

The gang stopped whatever they are doing when they heard Naru's room open, instead of a grumpy looking Naru, they saw a petite girl coming from the room.

They all startled when she suddenly screamed.

"Who are you?! I'm going to call the police! This is trespassing!" She yelled.

"Mai, what –" Naru's question was cut off when he saw the gang in his living room, eating his food, watching his TV. "Calm down, they are my friends."

Mai stopped, "Oh, I see." she softly said, she bowed before them "I'm Mai, I'm one of Nar – I mean, Dr. Davis' student."

All of them blinked at her politeness. It was Bou-san who speak first.

"Oh, it's nice to finally meet you." He smiled at her

She furrowed her eyebrow "Finally meet me? You know me?"

Ayako hit her husband's head "Sorry, it just that, Oliver keeps on talking about you."

Mai doubtfully look at Naru with a smirk "Really?"

"Of course, I never met a woman as loud as you." he teased.

She smack his shoulder "Jerk."

"So uhm, did we perhaps disturb you?" Gene grinned at the two "I'm Gene by the way, and my fiancée, Masako" Masako softly bow at her.

Mai's eyes sparkled "Naru, you're a twin!"

"Yes Mai, I am. Thank you for stating the obvious."

She glare at him "You don't need to be a jerk, you know!"

Madoka jumped from her seat to hug her "I'm Madoka, I'm that jerk's mentor." pointing at Lin "My husband, Koujo, but they used in calling him 'Lin', his family name."

"Oh, Chinese?"

He glared at her, which made Mai shrank behind Naru "You're point is?"

"N–n–nothing!"

"I'm Yasuhara" he waved his hand and wink at her

Ayako smiled at her "I'm Ayako, and this..." she smack his shoulder "is Houshou, my husband."

"You are surrounded by nice people, Naru. You should cherish them." Mai stated out of the blue.

They are all staring at them, including Naru, then he ordered "Breakfast."

"Right, breakfast. You want some breakfast too?" a chorus of 'no, we're full' was heard. Then Mai went to the kitchen. Naru went back to his room and close the door behind him.

"They are making a progress." Madoka whispered. "Do you think the two of them have sex already?"

"Of course! What would a man and woman do inside the bedroom?" Yasuhara smirk.

"Sorry to disapprove your theory Yasuhara, but man and woman can do anything inside the bedroom aside from having sex." Naru's cold voice made them jumped.

"She's cute, Noll." Gene send him a teasing smirk.

"Is it part of your plan to make her fall in love with you?" Bou-san curiously asked, which earn him a thwack on his head.

"Idiot! Don't talk about that when she's still in here!" Ayako hissed.

Naru frowned at Bou-san, he forgot about it! He's enjoying Mai's company so much to forget about the bet! But then, he still smirk at him "Of course."

They all cheered.

"Naru, breakfast is ready! Do you want to eat with your friends? I will serve it in the living room." Mai called from the kitchen.

He looked at his grinning friends and rolled his eyes "Fine, I'll eat with them." He answered.

Not a moment later, Mai served his breakfast to the living room, she also made a cup of tea for everyone. "Naru, don't forget to drink you medicine."

"Medicine?" they all asked, obviously they are curious.

"Naru got a fever yesterday, but he said that you are all busy, and he don't want me to call his girlfriends." Mai stated.

"Oh..." is all they can say

"By the way, why are you calling him 'Naru'?" Gene inquired

Mai glanced at Naru, then giggled "It's short for narcissistic"

All of them blinked, then burst out a laughter. Mai gasped as she look at the time. She dashed back to his bedroom to get her bag, she's on the phone when she came out.

"John, I'm on my way!" Mai exclaimed the moment John answered "I'm sorry about last night, a friend of mine got sick. Will you tell Amy and the others that I will buy their favorite sweet?" She paused. "Thank you, John!" She hang up and turn to Naru, who's frowning

"Naru, since your friends are here, I'll be going now!" She bowed at them "It's nice to meet you. And, uhmm, you Naru-doppelganger please take care of him, don't let him do something stupid, like overworking his self. "

She didn't wait for their reply, she then ran to the front door. She promised Amy to be there for her last night!

"Naru!" Bou-san teased, the others laugh. They've been teasing him by that name since Mai left earlier.

"She's really cute Noll." Gene commented.

"I know, Naru-doppelganger" Naru smirk, which made Gene scowl.

"But I wonder who this 'John' person is, they seem close." Ayako stated

"Maybe her boyfriend?" Yasu grinned at Naru

"No. Mai told me that she don't have a boyfriend."

"Oh... Maybe a suitor?" Madoka wiggle her eyebrow.

Naru just rolled his eyes, John... He recognized the name, that's the same name Mai called last night. If he didn't stop her, she's with this John person the whole night, and just by thinking about it made his blood boil.

"She also mention 'Amy'" Masako said

Surprisingly, it was Lin who spoke "Maybe his Amy is John's kid?"

"Oh, plausible." they all chorus.

"And now Mai is together with this John person, playing with this Amy girl. How cute~" Yasu chimed, he wanted to see Naru's reaction.

Naru suddenly rise from his seat and to his room, slamming his door. He was angry at the thought that Mai is having a good time with other man, what frustrate him the most is that, he didn't get Mai's number! He groaned, he's felt so stupid for overlooking something so trivial as that!

Mai ran her way to the church/orphanage that she grew up to. She stop at a pastry shop and bought three boxes of cake, enough for the kids to share. John, wearing his priest robe, greeted her on the doorway.

"Mai-san..."

She was panting "John, how's Amy?"

Amy is a two years old girl that very fond of her to even called her 'mama'. She always visit her after afterschool. Amy was left in the orphanage's doorstep two years ago.

John smiled at her "She's fine, but she's still sulking she refuse to leave her room."

She handed him the cakes she bought "Aw. I guess I have some explaining to do first." She went to the second floor, she carefully open the girl's door.

"Amy?"

The girl's eyes beamed when she saw her, "Mama!" she ran to her with her small legs. "Lonely... last night!"

"Sorry baby, but a friend of mine got sick, and I'm playing doctor!" she chirped.

"Really?"

Mai nodded furiously "Come on, I bought your favorite cake!"

She clapped her hands "Yey! Cake!"

She carried her downstairs. Mai wanted to adopt her, but she's still a student and she's an orphan too. Soon, Mai thought, she will graduate soon and find a stable job that can support her and Amy.

Monday came fast, she arrived in her classroom early than usual. And instead of a cocky jerk, a middle aged man enter, their original professor came back. All of her female classmates softly groaned in displeasure.

"Taniyam-san" he called

"Yes sir?"

"The dean wanted to talk to you about your internship." he smiled at her. Mai's eyes beamed, she immediately rise from her chair, she bowed before she left.

In the dean's office, she didn't expect the extra person to be there. Naru is discussing something with the dean when she enter.

"You called me sir?"

"Ah there you are, please take a seat." he stood up and went to his bookshelves, looking for a file.

Mai sit beside Naru, she whispered "How's your feeling?"

Naru raised his eyebrow "After you left me with those loud people? They gave me headaches!" he spat

Mai flinched "Sorry."

"Where did you left anyway?"

"It's nothing to do with you. But I can only say that John needs my help."

Naru twitched when he heard that name again "So this John person is more important than me?"

Mai stared at him "What?"

He look away "Nothing." he sighed, he don't know what's happening to him. He's angry... angry at this John person for being close with Mai.

The dean went back to his seat. "Taniyama-san, Dr. Davis offered that you can have your internship at his company. And I can say that it's a good idea."

That's right, Mai forgot about it. "Yes sir. It means that I don't need to go to school right?" she didn't mean it, but she sounded so happy.

The dean scowled "One of the main reasons for this internship is your attendance. When you are working at his company, it doesn't mean you have to slack off. You have good grades, but the problem is your attendance, and Dr. Davis volunteered to monitor your tardiness."

Mai groaned, but she still manage a smile "Yes sir. I'll do my best to come on time."

"Good, I want you sign this." he handed him a paper, Naru smirk when he saw Mai just directly sign the paper without reading it. "Since you live by yourself, Dr. Davis will have a full authority over you. He will be your guardian, even if you are no longer a minor." he stated as he fold the folder.

Mai widened her eyes "WHAT?!"

"It's part of the contract you just signed, Mai" Naru informed her, he softly chuckled.

The dean smile at her "Lesson learn Taniyama-san, you should read the file before signing it. Both of you are now dismiss."

"No! Sir, NOOOOOOO!" Naru drag her outside the office, he have a hard time suppressing his laughter at this spasmodic lady.
