A/N: Okay okay. I know I said the story was done but this idea for an epilogue just came to me so I am running with it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Ghost Hunt. Would I be writing fanfics if I did?
A few days after the events at the mansion, SPR and the gang had almost gone back to normal. Well if you count Ayako and Takigawa snuggling on the couch normal.
Naru had moved Mai's desk into his office on the basis that he hated having to get up to get files from her. Yeah right.
Pulling the cover tighter around her body, Mai slowly drifted off to sleep. She was waiting for Naru to finish his paperwork and give her a lift home.
When Mai opened her eyes she came face to face with Gene.
"Gene," she cried happily giving the boy a big hug. He returned it with a playful smile.
"I haven't seen you in days. Where have you been?" the brown haired girl asked, releasing him.
"Helping my brother find you is a rather taxing escapade," he said, his smile never faltering once. "I just needed some rest."
Mai nodded thoughtfully. That answered one of her questions. Now about the other.
"Hey Gene, Ayako told me I swallowed some kind of poison. Is that true?"
Gene nodded, making his black hair fall into his eyes.
"Then how did I survive?" she said placing a hand on her chin.
"Minari," he replied simply. At Mai's dumbfounded look he continued. "Technically you did die but as a parting gift for freeing them, she found your soul and brought you back."
"Brought me back," Mai repeated to herself softly. Gene just nodded and placed a hand on her shoulder.
Mai looked up at him and smiled.
"Now go back there and take care of my brother. Oh and slap him up the side of the head for me," he said playfully. Mai nodded and bid him goodbye.
When she lifted her head from the couch, Naru was just exiting his office. His coat was draped over his shoulders and his midnight hair looked ruffled.
Noticing his girlfriend was awake; Naru took the blanket and folded it up.
"Ready to go?" he asked, not turning to look at her. His response was a slap on the side of the head.
"What was that for?" he asked with murder in his eyes. She just smiled sweetly at him.
"Gene says hi," she chirped. Naru was dumbfounded for a moment before it sunk in.
'Note to self: Kill Gene,' he thought shaking his head and frowning.
"Don't frown," Mai said, "It'll give you wrinkles and you'll look old." A small smile graced Naru's lips at her words.
"With all years you took off my life on that last case, you're lucky I'm still alive at all," he retorted. Mai just stuck out her tongue.
In reply, Naru just wrapped his arms around her waist.
"I'm serious. More than once I thought you weren't going to make it," he said softly. Mai was a little startled at the amount on emotion lacing his tone.
"Really?" she whispered. He nodded and let her go.
"Yes. I hate interviewing new assistants," he said, walking out the office door. Mai stood there for a moment before his words registered.
"Naru…" she yelled, charging out and closing the door after her, "Get your scrawny little butt back here!"
Watching as Mai ran to try and stop the elevator doors from losing, Naru let a little chuckles slip from his lips.
'Oh yes. Interviewing a new assistant would be tiresome. And no where near as funny as this,' he thought as he heard Mai's fist connect with the now closed doors.
'Naru: 1. Mai: 0' he thought finally.
