DISCLAIMER: I don't own GHOST HUNT.

CHAPTER 2

It was Christmas Eve the air is cold and feelings of peace, love & happiness can be felt in the air. It was a silent night with the moon on the show for the night.

John and Masako were walking in awkward silence. John just came back from Australia, a few days ago. John broke the silence between them.

"Um…Masako, about last time you said to me, I just want to say that …" John said nervously.

FLASHBACK

Masako went outside of the SPR, and then John followed her outside.

"Masako" John called

"Hmmm..." Masako replied.

As she turned, she looks at John and she saw him shinning beside the full moon looking more handsome than ever. She blushes lightly at her thought.

"Masako what are you doing here, are you okay?" John asked looking really worried. This is why she likes him, he's so caring and sweet. 'I wonder where did these feelings come from.' She wonders

" I'm fine John" Masako replied.

Masako was debating with herself whether she should tell him or not. At last, she concluded that she should tell him before it's too late!

"Um... John, I love you" Masako said and she just looks away from him.

END OF FLASHBACK

"What about it?" Masako answered calmly she prepared herself for the rejection that will follow.

" I wanted to tell you that… I don't know when I felt these feelings. I have been telling myself that this is not right anymore. This love crosses the line between man and woman. I love you, Masako." John said.

Masako was shock and happy at the same time. For the person that she loves, also love her. And then a tough struck her!

"But John, I know that you're a priest. And with that knowledge, I had prepared myself for rejection of my love, for we can't be together. " Masako said sadly, tears were threatening to fall from her eyes.

"Yes, that is why I left and went back to Australia. I had confessed my intentions to leave my priesthood to the Bishop. I had confessed that I found someone who I love and want to marry. He just told me that I should be happy."

Masako felt really happy and guilty, so that's why he disappeared like that and went to Australia.

"Oh! John, I Love you so much!" Masako said happily " I Love You, too" John replied.

And they lean and kiss each other Masako felt happy. For this is the best Christmas gift she received. For her love that was impossible to have was given to her.


Aren't they cute?

Masako may NOT be the nicest person, at some point I also hated her. But I've come to like her and wish for her to have someone to love her. But I Love NARU and MAI couple. But I always thought that JOHN and MASAKO couple will be cute. So, I just tried them to couple up just once.

NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE BOU-SAN AND AYAKO!

P.S

A/N: So, I searched about this leaving the priesthood bit. And I had a headache understanding it. All I got is that, it's quite possible to leave the priesthood. But it's a hard process to go with. This is what I read over the internet:

In the canon law of the Catholic Church, the loss of the clerical state (commonly referred to as laicization) is the removal of a bishop, priest, or deacon from the status of being a member of the clergy. (from Wikipedia : wiki/Loss_of_clerical_state_(Catholic_Church) )

And I read that they could leave if they broke a regulation or something about a request.

In the Catholic Church, a bishop, priest, or deacon may be dismissed from the clerical state as a penalty for certain grave offenses, or by a papal decree granted for grave reasons. This may be because of a serious criminal conviction, heresy, or similar matter.

A Catholic cleric may voluntarily request to be removed from the clerical state for a grave personal reason.[4] Voluntary requests were, as of the 1990s, believed to be by far the most common means of this loss, and most common within this category was the intention to marry because Latin rite clergy must, as a rule, be celibate.

(from Wikipedia:( wiki/Loss_of_clerical_state_(Catholic_Church) )

There was a lot of information but I had a hard time understanding it.

So, let's just pretend that it's easy for John to leave the priesthood. Because it's fiction and my fantasy world. So, in my head anything is possible.

MISSKUROYUKI OUT!
