I own nothing!
Mai's p.o.v.
Koujo and I had just pulled up to the apartment that Koujo had found me. I smiled seeing that Naru's and Koujo's apartment was above mine on the second floor. He smiled down on me. "I thought it would be easier for you to get to work." "I don't know this neighborhood. I wonder where the nearest bus stop is?" I asked knowing full well that Koujo meant he would drive me.
Koujo cleared his throat and said, "Well I could always take you to work with me."
We walked into my new place and I mean new. Everything was new. From the trash bin to the kitchen table. I spun and looked at him. "What did you do?" "Well, you see mice had got into your storage locker and destroyed most of your furniture. So I replaced it." 'More like he'd seen it's worn condition and threw them out.' I told myself.
But he wouldn't tell her that. "Oh okay, but I insisted on paying you back," I stated to Koujo firmly.
He asked. "Well, do you like the place? I remembered you liked mine and Noll's, so when I saw this one was coming up for rent I grabbed it up for you." "How much is the rent here Koujo?" I ask feeling worried.
"A thousand yen. But it includes water and electric." He tells me and I think my heart skipped four beats.
"Are you sure I'll be able to pay that much?" I asked with worry in my voice. "Mai trusts me it's fine," Koujo said walking towards the kitchen.
That's when I realized I hadn't even asked if he wanted some tea. Quickly scrambled into the kitchen Koujo had already filled the kettle and was putting it on the burner. I garbed the cups and tea leaves from the carbonates. Then stopped. "Koujo did stock my kitchen?" He smiled and replied. I only got the basics. I didn't want you to need to go to the store the night you just got home." He reached over taking me around the waist and kisses me passionately.
I eagerly kissed him back. It had been too long since we had kissed like this. Both of us took our time with exploring each other's mouths. That is till the kettle whistled that it was ready. The sound brought us back to reality but neither of them made a move to pull out of the embrace of the other. Sebastian appeared from nowhere and quickly served the tea. The couple thanked Sebastian. He smiled and nodded his head to them.
We picked up the tea and moved to the living room. Koujo's shiki Nie turned on the tv to the news. We settled into the couch I leaning into Koujo's side while watching the news. We both fell asleep snuggled up together.
Naru's p.o.v.
Yasu drove while I yelled at him for the phone conversation Yasu had with my mother. "Just answer one question for me. Why?" I breathed out in an angry tone. Yasu stated bluntly." Because you did it to mine. At least your family accepted you. I got disowned." My jaw popped open. "What? When? How?" I stammered out.
"The night I stayed with you while Lin slept at the office after the case. I was on my phone with my ex-father when you screamed "Yasu love where are you?" and I replied that I was in the kitchen. My ex-father told me my stuff would be on the curb by one. That was the end of my family. Not even my mother or sister will speak to me. He already closed my student loans so I have no way to pay my tuition for next term and I had to get a shitty apartment fast."
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have talked to your mom Noll but I was..." "Yasu I'm so sorry. I didn't even think that they might call you because you did not come home. I'm so very sorry Yasu." We got to Noll and Lin's place and went to bed. Both of them feeling guilty as hell.
Mai p.o.v.
I woke to the feeling completely content. I look up to see Koujo's head against the back of the couch. He looked peaceful and content as well. I looked a the cable box to see it was five in the morning. So just wanted to cuddle back into Koujo's side and go back to sleep.
But when he groaned my name. I felt that warm feeling in me that I had been feeling for the last three years get worse. We hadn't made love in three years and apparently we both needed to. I watched as he hardened in his pants. That had just made up my mind. I slide my little body over his lap straddling him. I gently unfasten Koujo's pants to bring his manhood out.
I watched his face but he was still asleep. I was wearing a skirt so I ripped my underwear off and positioned Koujo's large member at my entrance. I slide myself down his shaft till he was completely sheathed inside my warm wet core. I moaned while I slid him into me.
Koujo's eye popped open and he groaned. "Mai?" He said my name and nothing more as I kissed him quite. Letting all my pent up passion out through that kiss. I rolled my hips to move him within me and got a load moan from inside his throat. So I started a rhythm. But Koujo seemed to need more, so he pulled us down to the couch. He was still in me. He kissed me senseless. I could feel every inch of his long lean body on mine. He controls the rhythm of his strokes within me.
I called his name between moaned and panted breaths. As he slowly sped up with every thrust. He could feel my walls inside my women hood start to grip his shaft. My body started to spasm soon I cried out his name as my walls death gripped his member sending him over the edge with me. We laid there cuddling each other. Till seven that's when Koujo looked at my sleeping form that was molded to his side. I better wake her or she'll oversleep. He started kissing my face and neck to wake me.
I responded by pulling him back down to me. "No Mai we have to wake up now." He told me. "What time is it?" I asked rubbing my eyes. "It's seven fifteen. I got to go upstairs and get ready you should do the same." He said looking down at my messed up mated bed head of hair. "Yeah, your right." I motioned to his bed/ sex hair and messed up clothes. That's when he realized his pants were still open and there was a dried wet mark on them.
Then it hit both of them "They didn't use a condom." I ran to the bathroom and took my birth control quickly. He stared at me like I was crazy. "What? We just got back together after being apart for three years. Maybe I want some time with you before we have a baby." I said faster than lighting.
"I understand Mai. Don't you think I want the same?" He said pulling me into a hug. He kissed the top of my forehead and asked me if "I wanted the morning after pill?" I said. "I should be fine." "You're sure?" He asked one more time. "Yes, love I'm sure." With that, he headed out the door to his apartment.
Lin's p.o.v.******
Yasu and Noll were getting dressed when they heard me come through the door. They waited till I was in my room for Yasu to run out the front door. I called out from my bathroom. "I already know Noll. You don't have to make Yasu run out of here every morning."
"If he wants to live here I fine with it. But he's got to buy his own food and detergent." Noll was dumbstruck by the fact that I knew all this time. Noll is eating breakfast when I come into the kitchen to make my coffee.
I had my head in the fridge when Noll came up behind me. "How long have you known?" He asked. "About you being gay or Yasu and yourself?" I asked bluntly.
"The Me being gay part." I stand up and say, "Since you were fifteen and I saw you making out with a boy from school." Noll is speechless. I turn to him and says. "What it's not like I saw you trying on your mother's dresses." Noll blushed scarlet. "It's ok Noll. I won't tell your father." "He already knows as of yesterday." Now I am shocked. Noll told me that Yasu and himself had to pick up Luella from the airport later. "So can you and Mai handle the office while we're gone?" I said that wouldn't be a problem. Noll turns and leaves the apartment.
I don't know what to say about all of this and I really doesn't want to find out.
It was eight twenty when Mai knocked on the door of mine and Noll's apartment. I opened the door and ushered her inside saying, "I need to tell you something real quick before we leave." "Ok," she says while I was getting my stuff together. "Mai, Noll is gay and his seeing Yas," I said bluntly and as quick as I could. Mai started laughing uncontrollably. "I own Monk five hundred yen." She states through her laughter.
"Ahhh ahhh! You have to let me tell Masako. The look on her face will be priceless." I was completely relieved. Now I knew for sure that there were no feelings left for Noll besides ones of brotherly love.
Now to get rid of Yawl and I'd be a happy man. She asked. "Is that all or is there more?" Just starting to get a hold of herself. "Noll's mother will be here sometime this afternoon." "Really Luella's coming here! She so nice I can't wait to meet her in person." I just smiled, Luella is going to love Mai. I just know it.
With all that said we headed out the door to my car. I ushered her into the passenger seat and I went and got into the driver's seat. "Oh, one thing," Mai said quickly before I could start the car. She pulled me to her and kissed me then said, "Good morning Koujo." I shook my head and smiled. "Good morning my love." I kissed her deeper. Which made her moan into my mouth. I pulled away and started the car with a smirk on my face.
Yasu's p.o.v.******
I couldn't face Noll I was ashamed of what I did. I had been just pissed and frustrated from his family problems. I sat down at the desk and started sorting some of the files. Noll couldn't take it anymore. He walked over to Yasu spun him around in the desk chair to face him and grabbed him into a very deep kiss. I kissed him back.
The kiss was full of love that they shared for one another. When I dragged Noll into his office. Noll was already undressing me. Noll wanted me now. We had barely had locked the door before my pants hit the floor. Within seconds I was in the chair in front of Noll's desk and Noll had just finished taking off his clothes. I sat there completely naked when Noll straddled my lap. Then sheathing my hard member inside himself in one stroke. I groaned loud at the feeling of Noll's tight hole around me. Noll rode me hard and fast. I couldn't hold my released in and with the scream of Noll's name. I released.
Naru adjusted them so now I was riding him. I rode just as hard and fast as Noll had. Noll screamed for me. Just as I started to kiss Noll and whispering words of love in Noll's ear the bell above the door chimed, that Lin and Mai were there they both hurried to dress themselves. Noll grabbed the spray from his drawer and sprayed the air.
Mai and Lin went into the kitchen. Mai started the water for tea while Lin got out the cups. They both smelled Yasu and Naru's loving. They were just going to have to return the favor at a different date. Mai turned to Koujo. "Koujo do you care if the others know about us? I mean I know that Luella is basically your boss right." "Mai it's fine. Luella already knew that I was in love with someone here in Japan from the way I acted in London. So I don't think she'll be mad.
As for the rest of SPR. You can tell them all when they get here at one. Mai smiled brightly and hugged her Koujo tightly. Koujo hugged her back and kissed her forehead just as the kettle started to whistle.
When Mai walked into the main room I was at my desk. She said. "Good morning Yasu," sitting my tea down. I looked up at her. "Good morning honey thanks for the tea." I was still play flirting with Mai. I had no clue she knew. Oh, Yasu. You'll have to stop flirting with me or Koujo might punch you." She warned me with a smile. "Wait you and Lin are together. Since when?" I asked her. "I'll tell you in a minute let me give Naru his tea. Before..."
"Mai Tea!" Was hear throughout the office. "See what I'd tell ya."
Mai's p.o.v.
I knocked on the door then waited. "Enter," Naru called out. I opened the door sat his tea on his desk. "Naru there is a client coming at eleven today. Will you be here for the interview or would you like Lin to do it?" "I'll be here. Mai, how did you know I would believing this afternoon?" I stared at him blankly. "I don't know just a feeling." "Fine you may go." I turned and left. I mentally patted myself on the back. I had gotten good at keeping things from my boss.
I walked over to my desk. Then looked up at Yasu. I nodded my head towards the filing room. Then grabbed the stack file off my desk and walked into to it. Yasu grabbed his and followed me. Once we were safely inside. Yasu said. "Ok out with it." I smiled and started my tale. "Well, remember when I went to Koujo's to help him pack for London." "Yeah."
"I confessed my feelings to him. He said he felt the same. But he could not be with me for four more years thanks to the contract he had with Naru's parents. I thought I waited for two for Naru to make a move. I could wait for four to be with a man that loved me. We ended up making love that night. Then I said goodbye to him the next afternoon. We talked for a little bit till Naru got him in trouble for me emailing him. So we lost contact.
Then when my power spiked Naru didn't tell Koujo I even called." Yasu figures out why Naru hide Mai's calls. Yasu looked at Mai. "It sounds like Noll was jealous that Lin loved you or that you loved Lin." "Really? Well, Lin's straight so it would never have happened." Shit Yasu now knew that she knew. Yasu got an evil smirk on his face. "How did you know Naru is gay?" "The same way I know you're his boyfriend. The smell."
I said starting to laugh. Yasu laughed with me. "Well, I'm happy for you and Koujo. He said in a mocking tone. "I'm happy for you to Yasu. But we will always be bestie's." They hugged and went about their business. They had no clue that Lin's shiki Rae was listening to their conversation. Rae told Lin what was said between them. Lin's eyes widened. 'Noll was jealous. That explained all of Noll's actions. Noll had a crush on him. That made his skin crawl.' His shikis chuckled. Lin shot them all a glare.
The spider crawled out of the vent and up to my desk. Yasu jumped when he saw the spider. "What's up, Claude?" Quietly asked my shiki. Claude told me what he saw and heard. I chuckled so did Claude. I laid out my hand for Claude to climb on, then put his on the office plant. Yasu watched all this in shock.
I saw this. "Oh, Yasu that's just Claude's animal form." "Oh okay, that makes sense now. So, Claude, is a spider and Sebastian is a raven?" Yasu asked. "That's right," I confirmed. "Kay so I'll tell people not to kill the spider if they see him," I smirked at his joke and said. "Thanks, Yasu. I know Claude would appreciate that."
Koujo's p.o.v.
It was almost ten when my shikis sensed Sebastian and Claude in the kitchen doing something. I went to the kitchen but couldn't open the door. Mai saw this and approached me. "Don't worry they're just getting ready for the client that's coming and starting lunch." I raised an eyebrow. "Oh, my shiki sensed them doing something. I was just curious." Mai said, "That's ok. They know you're not used to them.
Yasu asked. "Do they do this all the time?" "Claude sometimes. But Sebastian likes cooking. He gets bored just standing around and I think everyone will like their cooking. They know lots of different dishes from across the world." Naru popped out his office hearing them all out in the sitting room.
"I trust all of you are ready. Mai where's my..." Sebastian appears and within a flash the coffee table has a tray of tea and a serving tower of pastries with plates sitting next to it. Naru looked at Sebastian. Mai turned to her shiki. "Very nice guys. You have our thanks." She nodded to Sebastian.
They all took a sip of their tea and their eye lite up with delight. Yasu and I complemented the raven on his tea. He even got a "not bad" from Naru. "If you need anything my lady please feel free to summon me." "I always do. Thank you, Sebastian." Mai told him with a smile. Naru's thoughts. 'Maybe it won't be so bad having them around.'
General p.o.v.******
The client came in two minutes early and was surprised to see they were waiting for him. They even had tea and sweets papered for his arrival. Mai greeted the guest and offered the tea and pilasters to him. He took a seat and a cup of the tea Sebastian severed him. Then refilled Naru's cup.
Client: "Hello. My name is Tamaki Suoh. My family own's several hotels in the area. But we've been having guest leave are east side hotel a lot lately. Some of them by ambulance. They all claim the penthouse is haunted. By three ghost. They say it's two women and a man. The one woman comes through the door with a gun in her hand. Then the man appears out of nowhere.
He runs to the bathroom where the other female ghost is hiding. If you're a female the ghost will shoot at you till you leave. Unfortunately, it's cascaded. It uses to be if you got hit with a bullet from the gun it didn't hurt you. But In the last two weeks, three people have been shot. They all claim it was the ghost gun woman."
"How long has the hotel been built?" Naru asked the flamboyant man in front of him. "We opened the hotel this last summer. He answered. "We'll take your case. Please leave your address with one of my assistance. You should cancel any reservations for the next week. My team and I will be there tomorrow around noon."
"Thank you, Mr. Shibuya. I will make the arrangement with the front desk and feel free to use are room service for any meals or refreshments you may need to on me of course."
"Thank you once more and goodbye," Tamaki said then left the office.
As the clock struck twelve Sebastian and Claude started bringing everyone lunch to their desks. Sebastian knocked on Naru's door. He heard Naru say "Enter." So Sebastian came inside and put the tray down on the corner of the desk and said. "Excuse me, sir. But I've heard that your mother will be flying in soon. Would you like Claude and I to make her a lunch for when she arrives?" Naru is caught off guard by this. "How did you know?" Sebastian said. "Shiki's hear everything." "I think my mother would appreciate that she hates airplane food. "Very good sir," Sebastian said while exiting Noll's office.
Luella's p.o.v.*****
Yasu waits for Mrs. Davis while Noll went to the baggage claim to get her bags. I saw the handsome young man standing in front of the gate. I walk up to him. Yasu gives his best smile to me. I smiled back. "You must be Yasuhara." "Yes, Mrs. Davis, that's me."
"Noll is getting your bags. He'll meet us at the front doors. Please let me escort you." He offered me his arm. "Thank you Yasuhara," I said taking his arm with mine. Noll watched as Yasu escorted his mother to him. "Mother," Noll said stepping up to me. "Oh, Oliver, it's good to see you, son," I said while engulfing him in a bear hug. He hugged me back and motioned for me to follow him to his car. I didn't move till Yasu held out his arm to me. I took it with a smile. I like the young man my son fell for. He's just like Gene. I thought to myself.
On the way back to the office I had been asking Yasu all kinds of questions about himself. From the passenger seat. Then I asked the worst. "Does your family know about you being gay." "Actually I'm bisexual. But yes they know." His smile fell a little. "I take they were not very supportive." "Mother, Yasu got disowned," Noll said for Yasu. Tears filled my eyes. "Oh you poor boy. That's no way to treat your son. I'm so sorry Yasuhara." I said as the tears started to leak out my eyes. "It's okay Mrs. Davis. I knew they would when they found out." He said while offering me his handkerchief.
My thoughts. 'I could never do that to my child and Yasuhara is a fine young man. Oliver's not my blood and I still couldn't even be mad at him. That's it this young man needs a good mom and as long as I can be there for him I will be. Gene, I still love you son and miss you like crazy sweetest. But I know you would want me to help this young man.' I shook her head dried my tears just as they pulled into SPR's lot.
They got out the car. I turned to Yasu and wrapped him up in a bone crushing hug and said. "From this moment on you are to call me Mum or Mother. You hear me." Yasu smiled brightly at his new Mum. "Yes mum and please call me Yasu." Noll watched their exchange. He smiled, that woman could never turn away from anyone. He thought as they entered SPR.
General p.o.v.*******
Lin and Mai were packing up equipment they would need for the case. In the equipment room.
The irregular's had gathered at the office for a briefing on the case. When Luella, Noll, and Yasu walked in.
They all introduced themselves to Luella. Luella looked around the room but could not find Koujo anywhere. She decided to check Koujo's office there was a huge pile of background information on the land they were investigating on. But no Koujo. Then she got it he was gathering the equipment they would need.
Mai's p.o.v.*******
I was marking what cameras we would be taking from the inventory sheets by their cereal numbers. Koujo was packing them in boxes as I marked them off. I being the ever so light on my feet tripped and was doing to land on the metal shelving unit.
When Koujo caught me around the waist with one arm and pulled me to him instead of me hitting the shelf. I turned still in his arm to face him. He couldn't stop himself he lovingly kissed me. Just as a certain boss came through the door. Luella cleared her throat just to get our attention. With a smile she watched us pull apart with both of us blushing tomato red.
Luella smiled, "Hello Koujo. Who might this be?" She asked with a grin on her face. "Luella this is the girl I told you about. This is Mai my girlfriend and the elemental onmyouji." "Well, it's nice to meet you, Mai. Koujo told me a lot about you. So I take it you two are together now?" "Yes Mrs. Davis and it's nice to meet you as well," I said kindly. "Well, that's wonderful." Luella said with a big smile.
