I do not own ghost Hunt nor do I make any money off of this,

I lay on my couch trying to read my book but, thoughts of last night ran through my mind we shouldn't have done that. I ran my fingers through my hair as I tried for the hundredth time to focus on my school but, he kept popping into my mind. I knew I shouldn't have slept with him he was my boss after all but, I couldn't stop myself we had thrown an office New Year's Eve party and I might have had too much to drink. Well as you can imagine one thing lead to another and we ended up going home together. I loved him I was aware of this but, he didn't love me he made that clear when he left over two years ago.

I sighed feeling stupid I ruined everything I tried so hard to protect we had become more than coworkers maybe even friends over the last year and I had to go ahead and throw that all away.

Naru was right I was stupid. I could feel the tears pricking at my eyes as there was an impatient knock on the door.

I stood up looking at the clock it was after 10 I tried to ignore it but, the knocking became louder. I sighed standing up I peaked through the peep hole and almost had a heart attack when I saw who it was.

I leaned my head against the door trying to control my heart when he called out.

"Mai, I know your home."

I sighed I knew there was no way to avoid this so I opened the door to meet a set of icy blue eyes.

"Well are you going to invite me in?" He asked and I stepped aside to let him pass.

He sat on the couch taking off his black coat.

"Want some tea?" I asked noticing how red his cheeks were.

He nodded and I ran off to the kitchen.

I couldn't stop thinking about last night I knew we shouldn't have done that I was her boss after all while part of me thought it was wrong part of me was happy it happened I loved her I had figured that out when I left for England but, was too chicken to tell her when I came back. I wanted to tell her last night and thought some alcohol would loosen me up and did it ever. I thought sourly as I waited for her to come back into the room.

"Here." She said handing me a shaky cup of tea.

"Thank you." I said taking a sip to steady my nerves.

"What brings you here?" She asked after a few minutes of awkward silence you could cut the tension with a knife.

"You know why I am here." I said not really wanting to have this conversation but, Lin said we would have too if we wanted to be able to move forward.

We sat in silence again this was going to be awkward.

"Mai last night did we you know have…." I trailed off hoping she would catch on.

"Have what." I could feel the sweat drop.

"When we you know did we have any…."

"Any what?" Wow she was too innocent for her own good.

I swallowed the lump in my throat and tried again.

"Protection." I watched her face go from white to crimson.

"I hadn't even thought about. Oh no." She started to panic.

I wasn't on the outside but, I was a nervous wreck on the inside.

"Here." I said pulling out a small box and handing it too her.

She looked over the box and then back to me.

"Madoka." I said and she nodded.

"She said it would prevent…." I trailed off and she blushed more. I was thankful that part was over but, we weren't through yet.

After another few minutes of awkward silence I looked at her again.

"You take one now and again in twelve hours." I said repeating what Madoka had said.

She nodded as she popped on in here mouth and took a sip of tea.

Alright you can do this….

My thoughts were cut off by her small voice saying "Naru I'm sorry."

Why was she sorry I was the one stupid enough to think that drinking would help me loosen up I had never drank before and I had remembered Gene telling me it might work.

"I ruined what we had." She said my heart breaking at the look on her face.

"Mai…" I trailed off not sure what to say.

"I would understand if you let me go." She said and I could feel the panic rising inside me.

"Mai stop it." I snapped before I could stop myself she looked up at me tears shining in her eyes.

"Naru?" She questioned as I pulled her into my chest wrapping my arms around her.

"I need you with me Mai, and I don't just mean for your tea."

I felt her gasp as I took that moment to plant my lips against hers.

Something good came out of this after all I thought as we pulled apart.

"Naru?" She questioned breathless as I leaned my forehead against hers.

"Your not mad?" She asked and I fought the urge to roll my eyes.

"Far from it." I said kissing her again.
