Disclaimer…I wish I owned Ghost Hunt but sadly I don't

NAME INFO:

at the end of a name (first or last names), '-san' is used to be polite and for those older than you '-chan' or '-kun' are used between friends (or sometimes even an older person says -chan and -kun also to younger people…as seen later on in this chapter) '-sempai' is used for someone in school who is older than you ALSO names are said backwards, for instance, in English, Mai's name is Mai Taniyama, but in Japanese it is Taniyama Mai.

Okay! That's all I needed to say!

You can start the story now T.T

(Same day as the ending of the last chapter)

Mai sat at her desk refusing to talk to her orange-stealing narcissist of a boss. I'll show you to eat my last orange, PIG!! Oh, how mad he can make her?!?!

A bright orange daylily which was on her desk caught her attention. And you dared to mock me this morning by giving me that flower…well it IS a pretty flower… but anyway I know you just gave it to me to tease me!

FLASHBACK (Earlier that morning)

Naru pulled up in his car alongside Mai's apartment building as the fuming girl stomped over through the rain. He sat patiently, waiting for her to get in, which she did. Once she got buckled into her seat she glared out the window trying to avoid eye contact with her boyfriend.

Mai waited for him to pull away from the sidewalk but he kept the car in park. Confusion finally enticed her to turn around and face him but instead of seeing his face she saw a bright orange daylily. Mai snapped and started glaring daggers at the dark haired boy.

Naru smirked while placing the lily on her lap and wiped some rain drops off her forehead. "What is it Mai? Don't you want the flower? I made sure to get an orange one just for you."

"Stop teasing me! I know you're just rubbing it in my face that you took my last orange this morning!" Mai pouted.

Naru chuckled lightly. "But you're so fun to tease. And anyway what are you going to do? Stop talking to me?"

"That's a good idea! I'm not talking to you until you get me another orange," she declared, sticking her tongue out at him causing him to smirk.

"Good. The office will finally be peaceful for once without your loud voice filling it."

"Arggg!"

"Mai, you're talking like a pirate again."

"SHUT UP!"

END FLASHBACK

Mai was still glaring at the loathed flower on her desk as she heard her boss' voice ask "Mai, tea."

Curse him! And his little tea too!

When the young woman made the requested tea she rammed open Naru's door with a loud 'bang!' He looked up from his papers with slight shock which quickly changed into amusement.

"Still mad?" he said jokingly.

She held her chin up and placed his tea on his desk. "I already told you I'm not talking to you today. Not until you get me another orange."

"Well, if not talking to me was really your plan, then I am sad to announce that you just failed miserably at it," Naru teased the brunette in front of him, causing the said girl to growl and stalk out of the room.

"Oh and Mai?" he asked.

Mai paused mid-step and growled an irritable "hmmm?"

"I didn't really need that tea. I just wanted to annoy you and tell you that I have to go pick Lin up from the airport now."

"Nani? Why?" she asked in confusion.

"He was in England with my parents and Mori-san (Madoka), remember?" Did she really not notice he was gone for three weeks? Naru asked himself as his assistant rubbed the back of her head in embarrassment.

"Oh yeah…ehehe."

"Anyway…he said that two of Madoka's friends, here in Japan, have a case for us. The potential clients should arrive here later on today. If they come while I'm gone make sure to make them both comfortable until I get back," Naru ordered as he started pulling on his jacket before heading for the main door.

Mai nodded and went into the kitchenette to prepare more tea incase the clients came soon. She let out a long sigh when she heard the door the dark clad man left through click. I guess I won't be getting an orange any time soon; and so much for that stupid 'don't talk to Naru' plan.

Knock, knock, knock!

"Just five more minutes," Mai groaned in her sleep as her head rested on a stack of papers.

Knock, Knock, KNOCK!

Her eyes snapped open and she shot straight up, a paper sticking to her warm face as she looked at the main door. "N-Nani!!"

"Hello? Is anybody here?" a woman's voice called through the door.

"Uh, yeah! I'll be right there!" Mai said while pulling the paper off her face and sprinting over to let the person in.

Once the door was open Mai saw a tall red haired woman who seemed to be in her early forties and was in a bright red suit. A young male stood to the woman's right with dark blond hair covering one of his red-like eyes and was wearing simple worn, faded jeans and a plain white tee.

The red haired woman turned to Mai and asked, "Is this SPR?"

"Hai! I'm guessing you are the potential client my boss told me about. Please, come in."

The older woman stepped in, followed by the young man. He looked the same age as Naru and was actually quite handsome…but not nearly as handsome as Naru is, Mai thought with a smile and held out her hand to introduce herself.

"Konbanwa! Watashi no namae wa Taniyama Mai desu (Good evening! My name is Mai Taniyama)."

"Hello, Taniyama-san. I am Takashi Ami. This is my son Kaoru," the woman smiled as she shook Mai's hand.

The boy nodded his head and said, "Konbanwa Taniyama-san (Good evening Miss Taniyama)."

"Oh, please just call me Mai!"

"Okay Mai-san, then you have to call me Kaoru," the boy said with a smirk. He's more similar to Naru in more ways than one, Mai pondered.

"Okay, Kaoru-sempai!" she smiled. Ami quickly stepped forward, wanting to get Mai's attention.

"Oh, and please call me Ami. I feel old when people call me Takashi-san," Ami whined. Hehe, she's like a little kid…Mai thought…she's so kawaii! (cute!)

Ami was thinking along the same lines as Mai…AWWWW Mai-chan is so adorable!! So kawaiii!

"Would either of you like some tea?" Mai asked them heading off to get the tea in the kitchenette.

"Yes, please," they both replied.

(A/N: SPOILER in the next sentence)

"Is Davis-san here?" Ami enquired as Mai gave them both their teacups (she's referring to Naru since his real name is Oliver Davis…yup, he's the famous doctor that Bou-san admires!).

"No, I'm sorry. He had to go pick up his assistant, Lin-san, and will be back shortly."

"Alrighty then. We'll just wait over here," the older woman explained as she sat down on the sofa with her son following in suit.

"That's probably best since Naru-I mean Davis-san, would get mad if I were to ask you about the case when he's not here. Hmmm…I was wondering how you know Madoka Takashi-san?"

"We went to school together since we were young. We always acted like kids, and still do. She was always a little more mature than me though, haha. Were best friends and when she moved to England to work for Davis-san's parents, we drifted apart. However, we got back in touch a few years ago to catch up on one another and our friendship is back, full force again!

"Anyway, strange things always used to happen at our family inn but ever since my husband died they have been getting more frequent. I remembered that Madoka had told me she worked in paranormal investigation and I called her up, asking for help, and she told me to come here. So here I am!" Ami said in a sing-song voice, laughing.

"I'm glad you and Madoka-san have renewed your friendship. I'm sorry about your husband, though. I know what it's like to loose a loved one. I lost both of my parents a few years ago," Mai comforted.

"Awwww, Mai-chan that must be so hard on you!" Ami cried as she grabbed Mai into a tight adoring hug.

"Nope! I'm used to it! Besides, my parents wouldn't have wanted me to mourn for over their lives forever; they would have wanted me to live my life to the fullest and move on."

"You're so brave MAI-CHAN!!" hugging Mai even tighter. (A/N: Ami is like a female Bou-san . )

"Mother, you're probably scaring Mai," Kaoru groaned.

"Oh! Gomen nasai (I'm so very sorry)!" Ami yelled and jumped off of Mai.

The office door suddenly opened and in walked Naru and Lin. Naru noticed the clients were there and pulled out his black notebook and ballpoint pen. He's always ready for work. Gahhh! He's such a workaholic! Oh well, I better introduce him to the guests.

"Ah, Naru! Lin-san! This is Takashi Ami and her son Kaoru. And Kaoru-sempai, Ami-san, this is my boss Davis-san and his other assistant Lin-san!" Mai said as she introduced everyone. "Ami-san is our new potential client, Nar-I mean Davis-san!"

"Thank you Mai," Naru replied, rolling his eyes. I don't mind if she calls me Naru in front of them. Besides, I'm not so pleased with the way that Kaoru person is looking at her. I want him to know Mai is off limits. She's mine! My Mai!!

Naru lightly cleared his throat and took a seat next to his girlfriend and turned his attention towards Ami.

"Takashi-san wha-" he started but was quickly cut off by the older woman.

"I told Mai earlier that 'Takashi-san' makes me sound so old! Please call me Ami. And Lin-san, that goes for you as well!" she said while smiling when suddenly a familiar voice filled the room.

"Well, well, well, Ami-chan. You haven't changed."

Everyone looked to the SPR main door. Leaning against the doorframe was Madoka.
