A/N: As promised, here's your little taste of an SPR Christmas! Things may or may NOT fit in with the plot of 'Forgotten Past', I'm not sure yet...nonetheless, I hope you like it(: Mai's POV. (:

Disclaimer: I don't own Ghost Hunt

I smiled as I put up the last bit of the decorations. Grabbing a ripped piece of tape off the table, I stuck it onto the end of the streamer. Jumping off the step stool I was using for some height, I put my hands onto my hips and surveyed my work.

Brightly coloured streamers hung room every corner of the room, gathering in bunches then falling down in slow spirals. Christmas lights decked every visible surface in the small room, supported by dozens of pieces of tape. The light bounced off the streamers, giving the room an ethereal glow.

Along with the decorations, a tall Christmas tree stood in the corner, looming over. I was the proudest about the tree; even though it took me a good week, I had found the perfect-sized one in a far-off store. Buying a hell of a lot of ornaments, I spent quite a bit of time just to decorate it. Now, there it stood in all its glory, shimmering with beauty, almost as if it was an illusion.

"Mai? You in there?" Yasu's voice came. I turned, and beamed when I saw Yasu standing in the doorway. Waving at him, I bounced over.

"Hey Yasu!" I chirped happily, hugging him. His chest rumbled as he laughed at my over-enthusiasm, before he hugged me back. I pulled him into the room and forced him to marvel my work. He voiced his awe, before the others started walking in.

"Mai you did a wonderful job!" Ayako gushed, her eyes rooming the room. I laughed thanking her, but suddenly the room turned cold. Er, well...sure felt that way. Almost as if the devil emerged from the pits of hell-

"What's going on in here?" Naru's cold voice demanded. Everyone who'd been chatting and wishing each other happy holidays, froze and turned to stare at the dev- I mean Naru.

"Uhm...well...I sorta...decorated the place and invited the crew over?" I mumbled nervously, glancing at him from under my lashes.

"Mai, my office, now." He snarled, before stalking off. Sighing, I got up and walked in after him. He stood behind his desk, his back to me. The curtains weren't drawn, making the room even more darker than it should've been. Closing the door quietly, I stood beside it..just in-case I'd need to run.

"Why didn't you ask for permission?" He demanded, his voice suddenly cutting the thick silence. I jumped, startled by the sudden question, before answering.

"I didn't think I'd need it, considering I did the same thing last year..." I said, huffing. His eyes widened a fraction, before he regained his composure.

"You threw a party last year?" He asked, confused. I paused, letting his words sink in. What did he mean? We partied until dawn...

"Yes...?" I said, glancing at him. He blinked, before sitting down and putting his head in his hands.

"Just go Mai..." He muttered, dazed.

"You want some tea?" I offered, with a small smile. He nodded, then got up and walked over to the door. Suddenly, it flew open, revealing a grinning Bou-san and a Yasu with a slightly crazed expression on their faces.

"MISTLETOE!" They sang, and much to my dread, pointed above where Naru and I stood. Slowly, I listed my head up and stared at the festive, little plant.

"KISS HER KISS HER KISS HER!" They chanted, much to my annoyance. Couldn't they just leave? Suddenly, I felt all rational thought leave me as Naru's lips covered mine. For 5, seemingly long seconds, I stood there, paralyzed with shock and delight.

Five seconds later, he was gone, walking out the door and passed by a shell-shocked Bou-san and a Yasu who looked like he was about to faint.

"What the hell!" I screamed, stomping my foot, "How did the mistletoe get there?" I demanded, staring at the two.

"That would be I..." A passing-by Lin answered, a small smile playing his lips.

Dumbfounded, I watched him walk by. What a Christmas miracle...Lin actually somewhat smiled! Shocked, I walked back into the little party and didn't look at Naru the whole night, even when he smacked Yasu for the petty comments.

A/N: Oh, Lin xD. I hoped you enjoyed it! Merry Christmas to all! LILAC SIGNING OUT! :D
