MOTZ1412: Anyway, This is a story of HeijixKazuha entitled, "Scary Stories are Good for You".

Kaito: ENJOY!!

Hattori Heiji was good in skiing. Toyama Kazuha was not, at all, good at it. This is why the story starts as Kazuha was sitting on the cold snow while Heiji was teasing her.

"You haven't improved, Kazuha," he laughed.

"I couldn't help it!" she shot back, "this is the second time our class had another ski trip. You know that this is the only opportunity for me to learn!" she blushed.

Heiji laughed again, "you're such a klutz in skiing," he pointed. Kazuha's eyebrow twitched. Heiji smiled while Kazuha looked away, not trying to stand up. Of course, if ever she did manage to stand up, she would end up on her butt again.

Suddenly, a person held out his hand, "you okay, Toyama-san?" Aki asked. "Thanks," Kazuha blushed and took his hand.

Heiji crossed his arms, "show off!" he mumbled.

"At least he helped me up, Heiji," Kazuha shot him an angry look.

She turned to Aki, "thank you," he smiled.

Aki chuckled, "no problem!"

Heiji looked at her, "c'mon. I'll take you to your room. Maybe you could just watch us ski from there," he said with half-moon eyes.

He held her hand tightly as they walked towards the building. Suddenly, their classmates blocked them. "Hey, where are you two heading?" Uumi asked with a evil grin.

"To the hotel," Heiji replied.

"But the hotel of Kaihou High School is thattaway," Arumi pointed the other direction.

Heiji and Kazuha looked at the hotel in front of them and to the hotel at their back, "oh yeah," Kazuha smiled nervously.

"Unless...," Ryoichi sneered, "...unless you two are going to another place to do some THINGS," he grinned. The other boys smiled. "W-WHAT GAVE YOU THAT IDEA, AHOU?!" Kazuha exclaimed.

The boys and girls pointed at Kazuha's and Heiji's hands, "that one," they said with half-moon eyes but with such weird grins. Kazuha and Heiji both stared down to their hands. Suddenly, Heiji pulled his hand away, "i-it's not what you think," he smiled nervously. Kazuha stared down on her hand that Heiji held just a while ago. She sighed, "I guess it's not yet the time," she thought sadly.

Heiji talked their way out as he denied while the others teased. He glanced at Kazuha, "right, Kazuha?" he asked, smiling nervously. Suddenly, he noticed her facial expression as she was looking at her hand, "Kazuha?" he asked again. She looked up with a fake smile, "uhh, right," she chuckled a little.

----------------------------------

As soon as Kazuha got to her room, Heiji was invited by 'fangirls' to ski with him. She didn't mind as he left her.

Kaihou High School reserved the whole hotel for their class only since this is their Winter Retreat. They had separate room and that Kazuha got a room right across Heiji's room. Actually, she wanted to sleep with him or a roommate since she's afraid of the dark.

But as you saw a while ago, she felt as if Heiji didn't care about her at all. Deny, deny and deny! That was all in his head. "That ahou…," Kazuha mumbled as she sat on her bed. Kazuha removed her scarf and her gloves. She closed her curtain as she removed her jacket, "hmph! He's better off with his fans!" she thought angrily.

She removed her sweater, leaving her with only a thin shirt. She sighed and took a peek out the window. Her room was on the first floor so she could see a really good view of people skiing. She saw Heiji as he smiled while talking to his friends. He removed his ski shades, exposing his blue-green eyes.

Kazuha blushed and closed the curtain again, "how could I fall for such a cold-hearted idiot?" she thought, removing her shirt.

Suddenly, she heard a commotion outside. She wore another shirt and opened the sliding door to her balcony.

---------------------------------

Heiji smiled as he looked at his friends skiing down towards his direction. "Hey, Hattori!" Hiroshi came running to him, "it's Toyama-san!"

Heiji looked at him, "what happened?" he asked panicky. Hiroshi caught his breath, "some guys in another school are peeking in her room through the balcony!"

"WHAT?!?!?!" Heiji's face went red in anger.

He ran towards her balcony, where there were lots of boys. He pushed his way in and as he got to the front, he saw through the thin curtain, Kazuha removing her shirt! "Oh, damnit!" he cursed.

He stood in front of her balcony, facing the perverted guy, "okay! Leave now, you guys! Break it up!" he looked at them with his half-moon eyes. "Aww," they whined. "Move it!" he shouted! Suddenly, all of them disappeared.

He heard the sliding door opened behind him. He looked at her, "K-Kazuha," he looked at her, blushing a little. "W-What are you DOING HERE?!?!?!?!" she exclaimed, "PERVERT!!!"

---

Heiji sat on the couch in the lobby with three huge bumps on his head. "Hey, Hattori! Are you okay, man?" a group of boys sat around their friend. "Give her a break, man! It was only a misunderstanding," Hiroshi smiled nervously.

He crossed his arms, "why do I always bother saving her?!" he mumbled angrily.

"It only means you like her!" Haru grinned.

"Yeah. You always come to the rescue," Shiori smiled.

Heiji looked away, "such a pain, she is," he said.

Suddenly, he saw Kazuha walking towards the lobby's living room area, where he was. She sat across him, arms folded, one eyebrow up and her mouth twitched. They boys looked at her and then to Heiji.

Heiji and Kazuha stared at each other, arms folded, their eyes showing all the emotions. It was as if they were fighting silently with their eyes. "Well, it's getting pretty cold in here," the teacher smiled as she saw the two.

"Dinner's ready, you guys," she smiled as she went to the dinning area. Kazuha stood up and left with all the anger in her face.

----------------------------

Kazuha pushed the door opened. A long table welcomed her as she entered. Her classmates, who were busy talking, shut their mouths and looked at her and she shot them a 'what-are-you-looking-at-?' look. They looked away and proceeded eating. Kazuha sat beside Uumi and started eating.

After a while, Heiji came busting into the room. Everyone stared at him as he walked and sat across her, who didn't mind him.

Everyone sighed. They knew that the 2 childhood friends always eat with each other even if they were fighting.

The teacher just stared at them with a sweat-drop, "uhmm, Toyama-san, would you care for another bowl of rice?" she offered. "No, THANK YOU," she said boldly.

"Hattori-kun, how about you?" she asked. "No, thanks," he shook his head. There was an awkward silence.

Heiji and Kazuha were the only people, who could always cheer the class up with their usual fights but this time, it was really awkward to say that they were having their 'usual fight'.

"Thanks for the meal," they both said at the same time and left the room at the same time. After slamming the door behind them, "well, that was freaky," Seiji said aloud. Everyone nodded in agreement. "I have a plan," Mai suddenly smiled.

-------------------------------

Kazuha sat on her bed angrily, "he's really a pervert!" she thought, "an idiotic pervert! I can't believe he's the guy I'm falling for!" she looked around.

Suddenly, her facial expression changed to a very sad one, "but I bet he really didn't want to peek," she thought aloud, "because Heiji isn't like that. Heiji is always for the justice," she looked at the picture that she kept with her in her pocket.

Suddenly, there was a knock on her door. Kazuha shoved the picture into her pocket. She quickly opened her door, "yes?" she asked softly. "Hey, Kazuha-chan!" Mind if we enter?" Akemi asked.

Kazuha removed the chain lock and let them in. They all sat in a circle.

"Kazuha-chan, we just came here to invite you to our group story-telling," Mai smiled.

The girls nodded. "It would be held by the fireplace," Arumi said excitedly.

"That way, maybe we could talk things over with Hattori-kun," Uumi looked at her as if pleading.

"You do want to be friends with Hattori-kun, right?" Ayami asked.

Kazuha looked down to her hand, "well," she thought for a while. She looked up to her friends, "alright," she replied, not sure whether she made the right choice. The girls giggled, "alrighty! Let's go," Akemi said excitedly.

---------------------------------------

"Hmph! She's such a pain!" Heiji sat down on his bed. He glanced at his door, "and to think her room is just across mine," he thought. Suddenly, his eyes softened, "but that's why I love her. She's a strong-willed girl," he chuckled sadly.

Suddenly, there was a knock on his door. He quickly opened the door, "oh, it's you, guys," he said sadly. "Why? Were you expecting someone?" Ryoichi sneered.

"Well...," Heiji looked at the door across his with a blush.

Ryoichi laughed, "Before you imagine things, let us in, man!" They pushed his door opened and entered, "wow, your room is so big. I think it's a luxury room of this hotel," Hiroshi bounced on his bed.

"You bed is a couple's bed!" Seiji pointed. "Maybe it's for you and Toyama-san," Haru sneered. The boys laughed. Heiji closed the door, "what're you guys here for?" he asked coldly. "Oh, c'mon! Can't guys hang-out?" Shiori asked.

"Spit it!" Heiji joked. Suddenly, they became silent, "we just want you to hang out with us and with Uumi-chan, Arumi-chan, Ayami-chan, Akemi chan and Mai-chan," Seiji smiled.

"Of course, Toyama-san would be there too," Ryoichi grinned, "so that you two could talk things over."

"So will you join us?" Shiori asked.

Heiji nodded, "sure, why not?"

"Alright, man!" Haru pinched Heiji, "you two shall have the night in your life!" he laughed. The boys nodded.

"What do you mean?" he asked out of curiosity.

"NOTHING!" they said all together.

-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

As they sat in a circle near the fireplace, Kazuha and Heiji seating together, there was silence. "Now, what'd we do?" Hiroshi asked. "Let's see, it IS late at night," Ayami smiled. "There's a snowstorm right now," Ryoichi grinned.

"Let's do Ghost Stories!" Mai exclaimed excitedly. Kazuha looked at them, "g-ghost s-s-stories?" she trembled a little. "Yeah!" Akemi chuckled, "don't tell me the Aikido champ is afraid of ghosts," she sneered. Kazuha smiled, "n-not at all!" she giggled nervously.

Heiji looked at her. He knew that it was the thing Kazuha hated most. He sighed and didn't bother embarrassing her. "Let's start!" Haru said excitedly. "Ooh! I know one that can scare your pants off!" Uumi smiled, raising her hand.

"Once," she started, "a friend told me that a girl died in this very villa." Everyone leaned closer as they listened, while Kazuha just closed her eyes and held Heiji's hand. He leaned closer too, as if he didn't care about Kazuha.

"It was said that there was a huge avalanche happened here. The girl's name was Ami and at that time, she was with her boyfriend. When the avalanche happened, Ami saved her boyfriend. But since the boyfriend was only after her money, he didn't save her and run off with her bag. Ami cried for help as half of her body was already under the snow. Because there was a snowstorm that night, no one heard her cry. The next morning, her body was found, mutilated by someone. They say that Ami is still hunting down for her boyfriend and that she would kill him if she had the chance," Uumi leaned back and smiled, "now, wasn't that great?!" she laughed.

"Wow, that was really something!" Seiji exclaimed.
Heiji laughed, "really, it did scare me a little," he smiled. Suddenly, he felt a hand gripping his hand, "what's wrong?" he asked Kazuha. "N-nothing," she smiled nervously.

"I have something," Shiori said, "once, there was a drunkard driving home. Suddenly, he saw a really beautiful girl outside this villa. Of course, he didn't pass for he stopped his car and got near to that girl. First, he talked to her and then, ended up sexual harassing her. Of course, this freaked out the girl so she shot him. But this didn't stop there. After being killed, the drunkard rose from the ground and strangled the beautiful girl until she died. Then, one night, a female student who stayed here, was also harassed in her dreams and it was said that the drunkard was hunting female students in their sleep and then—"

"Hey, I think we should all get some sleep," Heiji suddenly suggested.
"WHAT?!?!" the boys exclaimed, "don't tell us you're scared!" Ryoichi exclaimed.
Heiji scratched his head, "well, it IS kinda scary," he laughed.
"Aww, so gullible," Akemi patted him.
"I think it IS good to get some sleep now," Ayami smiled.
Everyone stood up and nodded, "let's sleep," everyone left the living room area.

---

Heiji glance beside him, to the person who is almost crying as her eyes were shut tight. "H-hey, it's okay now," Heiji said calmly. Kazuha looked up and realized that they were the only ones left, "thanks," she whispered.

Heiji looked at her with one eyebrow up, "for what?" he asked. "You told them that it was getting late and that we should all get some sleep so that they would stop telling the story, right?" she said, half smiling, "thanks," she looked at him. "H-hey, i-it's not like I did it for you," he scratched his cheeks, hiding the blush.

Kazuha giggled softly and suddenly, she realized that she was still holding his hand, "oh, sorry," she took her hand back and rubbed her hands together. Heiji stood up and reached out his hand, "c'mon. We should get some sleep too," he looked away with his face flushed in red.

Kazuha looked up at him and then to his hand. She took his hand and stood up, slightly blushing, "thanks," she mumbled.

-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

That same night, Kazuha kept moving under her sheets. She couldn't sleep, thanks to those scary stories. She sat up and looked at her window and saw a shadow. She shut her eyes, "please, if you're the drunkard, don't kill me. I'm not very cute according to Heiji," she thought. She opened her eyes again and saw no more shadow. She sighed but then, heard the wind's blowing.

"Must be from the snowstorm," she thought, "but just in case…," she stood up and walked out her room. She glanced to her left and to her right. She sighed and went back to her room. But as she soon as she closed the door behind her, she felt as if she was being watch. She swallowed hard, "oh, gosh," she mumbled.

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-

Heiji was sleeping soundly in his room when suddenly, he heard a creaking sound. He opened his eyes a little, "must be the mice," he thought and pulled his blanket to his head and proceed to sleep. Then, he heard a 'thump' sound. He opened his eyes a little again, "must be 'Ami', hunting for her boyfriend," he chuckled softly, "why can't I get some sleep in here?" he moaned and turned to the other direction and tried to sleep again.

Then, he felt as if his bed was moving. His eyes were half opened as he took the other end of his pillow to cover his ears, "if that was the drunkard, then maybe it's just Kogoro," he chuckled again. Suddenly, he sat up, "if that was Kogoro, then Kudo must be near by," he thought, "must be a case," he smiled excitedly.

Suddenly, he noticed a person crawling on his bed, towards him. He blinked his eyes once, twice, thrice, "K-Kazuha?!" he mumbled, "what're you doing? It's 2 a.m. in the morning," he yawned.

He could see her eyes so teary. "Kazuha?" he said again. Suddenly, she pushed herself towards his arms, hugging his abdomen as her head on his chest, she was crying! Heiji fell back a little but instead, his back leaned against the wall behind him. "K-Kazuha, what's wrong?" he asked.

"I-I'm scared," she mumbled as she hugged him tightly, "don't leave me," she sobbed, "please?"
Heiji looked down at her head, down at the beautiful girl who was crying her heart out because of a dead girl and a drunkard. He hugged her by the shoulders, "don't worry," he calmed her down, "I'm here."

They settled down as Heiji shared the blanket with her. Kazuha was one of the beautiful girls in his school. If others find out about this, the boys would kill him, literally.

Kazuha's head rested on his chest, wrapping her smooth arms around his abdomen. Heiji's arms hugged her, almost possessively. Both of them couldn't sleep not because they were scared. It was because they couldn't believe that they were sleeping together.

Heiji sighed; she could hear his heart beating fast. "Heiji," she looked up at him. He looked down at her, "yeah?"

"There's this 'thing' I wanted to tell you a long time ago," she almost whispered.

"What's that?"

"W-well," she blushed, "it's that…, I really liked you ever since we were young," she sighed.

"Oh," he simply replied, flushing a little

"But I want to ask you something," she smiled, "do you like me?"

Heiji swallowed hard. Was this a trick question? He looked up and then down to her. "No," he replied, "I don't like you," he looked at her in the eyes.

Kazuha smiled, "I-I see. Then, I don't have the right to be here then," she tried to sit up but Heiji's hug tightened. He pulled her closer to him.

"I love you," he smiled. Kazuha looked at him and chuckled, "aww," she hugged him tightly. Heiji cupped her cheeks and pulled her closer to his face. Their lips came in contact as Heiji opened his mouth a little. No, he hasn't been practicing how to kiss. He just knew how to do it.

Kazuha smiled under his kiss as she followed his lead. As their lips parted, she kissed his neck lightly, sending shivers down his spine. He breathed sharply as she kissed the scar behind his ear. She chuckled, "you're so cute," she smiled.

"I like that," he smiled back. He hugged her again until they both fell asleep.

-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-

The next morning…

As Kazuha opened her eyes, "Heiji…," she thought about last night. She shot opened her eyes when she realized that she was hugging a pillow. "A dream?" she thought as she snuggled into the soft, fluffy pillow. Suddenly, she saw a dark figure, looking at her.

He was sitting beside the bed, his arms folded while his head rested on it. He was looking at her, "it wasn't a dream," he smiled with his usual detective smile. Kazuha kissed his nose, "I knew that," she lied.

----

As they entered the dinning area, everyone looked up at them, "Kazuha-chan wasn't in her room the whole night, yes?" Mai smiled. "Eh?!" Kazuha looked at her.

"We knocked at your door a while ago and when we opened it, you weren't there," Uumi giggled.

The boys sneered, "unless…," the looked at Heiji, "you were with him the whole night," they grinned.
"N-no, t-that's b-because…," but before Kazuha could think of anything, she felt his arms around her.

"Yeah, she was with me all night," Heiji smiled. "What?" Kazuha thought. "Really?!" their classmates exclaimed. "Nooo! My Kazuha-chan is taken!" the other boys exclaimed is sorrow. "Nooo! Not my Heiji!" the other girls cried.

Kazuha looked up at him as he winked at her, "no more denial," he smiled. She hugged him, "I never thought scary stories are good for me," she chuckled. "Eh?!" Heiji looked at her with one eyebrow up. She giggled, "it's nothing," she smiled.

"I never imagined that scary stories can bring us closer together…,"
