Mai opened her eyes and found herself on her back with Naru propped on his elbow beside her looking down at her, his other hand gently brushing through her hair,
"Naru?" she asked, seeing him smile as his body shifted so that his arms were on either side of her and his chest was just touching her breasts. "What are you?" she asked in confusion as he leaned down and brushed her lips with his. "Naru?" she asked again, seeing the same warmth in his eyes that she had seen in Fai's living room that after noon.
"Is something wrong?" he asked as he tilted her head up to gain access to her neck, where he left a small trail of kisses that went to the neck of her white top.
"Yes…this isn't like you." She replied as he looked down at her with a smile that suddenly became a smirk. As she watched the warmth left his eyes to be replaced with a predatory look that was not in Naru's character. "Get off! Let go! Stop it!" she cried as Naru's hands run up and down her body, moving beneath her top to feel her breasts as he ground his hips into her roughly, pressing his erection against her, "No!" she cried as his hand moved down to her white knickers, "Naru! Stop!" she cried as tears streamed down her cheeks,
"Mai! Wake up!" Naru cried as her held her in his arms, her body shaking, tears streaming down her cheeks as she cried out at him to stop something. "Mai." He said as her eyes snapped open and she looked up at him in fear. "It's alright, you were dreaming." He soothed as he held her shoulder. Mai focused on him as he sat beside her, leaning down holding her shoulders gently but firmly. "What did you see?" he asked as she sat up and turned away from him,
"Nothing…it wasn't one of those dreams." She replied to his silent question, it couldn't have been. Naru would never treat me like that, and his eyes would never look as…evil as that. It was just a nightmare! She thought reassuringly as her breathing slowly went from gasps to deep breaths.
"Are you sure?" he asked unconvinced. Mai nodded without turning to him, unsure of whether she would be able to look at his face ever again. She felt him move and was surprised as he walked round to crouch in front of her, catching her chin gently with his hand, at which he noticed a flicker of fear flash through her eyes, "Mai…you don't have to tell me now, but if it is relevant then you have to tell me." he said, his eyes piercing hers with a deadly calm.
"I told you. It was just a dream." She replied as she looked away, unable to look at his face for a moment longer. It was just a dream. She assured herself as Naru sighed and got to his feet and it was then that she noticed that he was already dressed and, judging by the dampness of his hair, he had showered as well. "I'm taking a shower." She said as she got up and walked towards the door,
"Mai? There's a bathroom over there." Naru informed as he pointed towards the bookshelf in the corner of the room where there was another door. Mai went over to it and look inside at the white tiled floor and walls with a toilet, bath, shower and sink with towels already laid out.
"Thanks…you should go down to breakfast." She added as she stepped through the door. Looking back she saw Naru flicking through some papers,
"I'll wait." He replied. Mai closed the door and pulled off her top and white knickers as she turned on the shower, feeling the cold water pouring out. I can't believe I didn't bring a change of clothes…then again I wasn't expecting be stuck here! She thought as she climbed into the bath and stood under the spray. She picked up the soap and washed quickly, shampooed her hair, rinsed it and climbed out, shivering from the cold water as she dried herself. She pulled on her clothes quickly and turned to open the door when she heard running water. Turning around she saw the sink taps running, which were soon followed by the bath taps and the shower. Mai watched in horror at the shower began to spray hot water at her, catching her back and bare legs as she reached for the door,
"Naru!" she cried as she tried the door and found it locked, but the bolt was open and there was no other lock on the door. She heard running footsteps and the door handle moved as Naru tried the door,
"Mai! Get back from the door!" he shouted. Mai went back towards the shower as the door was kicked off its hinges and Naru entered, standing in front of her with his hands on her shoulders,
"Are you alright?" he asked quickly as he looked at the taps. Mai nodded as he leaned over the bath to turn the taps off and Mai screamed as the showerhead detached itself and the tubing wrapped round Naru's neck tightly, cutting off his oesophagus and choking him.
"Naru!" Mai cried as she stepped forward and pulled at the tubing around his throat, catching him as he slumped to the floor, the lack of oxygen weakening him. Mai cringed, and whimpered holding up one hand to stop the scolding water that was aimed at her face as the showerhead writhed up towards her, trying to get her away from Naru so that she couldn't help. Please! Someone! Anyone! Help! She cried inwardly as Naru's eyes closed and his breath caught,
"Nau maku san bazara danken!" a voice shouted. Mai looked up from where she knelt on the floor, dripping wet with Naru in her arms to see Monk-san in the doorway panting. The tube immediately loosened and the writhing showerhead clattered to the tiled floor, though the water kept running. Mai carefully unwrapped the tubing from Naru's neck and threw the showerhead and tubing into the bath as she looked down at Naru, who lay still with his eyes closed, but he was breathing. "What happened?" Monk-san asked as he walked to the bath and leaned over, turning the taps off.
"I don't know; I came in for a shower and the taps turned on. I tried to get out, but the door wouldn't budge so I called Naru. He kicked the door open and came over to me and the showerhead wrapped round his neck, I tried to get it loose, but I couldn't, I thought he was going to die!" she replied tearfully, looking down at Naru as he stirred in her arms.
"Is your hand okay? Do I need to get the med kit?" Monk-san asked as he looked down at Mai's hand, which was red from the hot water.
"The water wasn't that hot. It just looks bad, it'll calm down in a while, but Naru could use a bandage, that cut look nasty." She replied as Naru opened his eyes and blinked a few times. He raised a hand to his throat, feeling a stinging pain where the tubing had gripped his throat so hard and as he took his hand away it was smeared with blood. "Do you think you can get up?" Mai asked. Naru took a breath, realising that he was lying on the bathroom floor with his head resting in Mai's lap,
"I think so." He replied as he slowly sat up and looked away from Mai. She looked down at herself and blushed as she realised the water had made all of her white clothes nearly transparent. She looked around briefly for her towel and pulled it over her. Naru stood up shakily and went to a small wooden cabinet, pulling out a dry towel and handing it to her.
"You'll have to get out of those clothes." He said, regaining his composure as he handed her the towel. She looked at him in disbelief as he pulled his shirt off and grabbed another towel, "So will I." He added as he headed for the bedroom. Mai looked up at Monk-san, who followed Naru to the door,
"Don't worry, that spirit shouldn't be back for a while. You get undressed, I'll see if Fai has any spare bath robes or something while your clothes dry." He said at Mai's worried expression. Mai nodded and watched him close the door. After a moment of hesitation she pulled off her wet clothes and wrapped the towel around her, knocking on the bathroom door hesitantly.
"Naru? Are you…descent?" she asked awkwardly. After a few moments of silence she pushed the door open, but the room was empty. Mai sat on the edge of the bed and waited, jumping as Naru and Monk-san walked through the door. Mai blushed as she looked at Naru, who had a towel wrapped round his waist and nothing else except a cotton bandage round his throat.
"Here, Fai found this for you." Monk-san said as he handed her a light pink silk bathrobe. She went hastily to the bathroom and changed into it, not liking the way the neckline plunged. "Let me take your wet clothes. Fai has a tumble dryer in the kitchen." Monk-san added as he took Naru's cloths from the floor by the bed. Mai took her clothes from the bathroom floor and gave them to him, stifling a laugh as she looked at Naru wearing a pure white flannel bathrobe looking extremely uncomfortable. Wow, the white makes his hair look so dark and his eyes look bluer for some reason. She thought as she stopped laughing, receiving a glare.
"What?" he asked in annoyance as she continued to stare, raising his hand to his throat, which was stinging, but was otherwise fine.
"Nothing…I was just thinking that you don't look bad in white." She replied with an embarrassed smile, I just said that aloud? She thought bashfully. Naru looked away as if he hadn't heard and picked up his papers again. What's his problem; can't he take a compliment? She thought in amusement.
"Mai! I heard what happened, are you alright?" a concerned Fai asked from the doorway. Mai turned and smiled brightly as the blonde entered the room,
"Yes, I'm fine, actually it was Naru who was attacked, whatever it was left me alone for the most past." She replied, her eyes widening as Fai stood in front of her with a hand gently caressing her cheek as his eyes scanned her for damage, "I'm fine really." She assured, blushing as his hand continued down from her cheek to touch her neck gently. Naru's gaze sharpened as Fai inched closer to Mai, who was too stunned to move as Fai leaned down, tilting her head up as he pressed his lips against her neck. Mai's eyes widened and she froze, not knowing how she should react, what is he doing? He knows I like Naru, so why is he still being so seductive? She wondered, gasping as Fai's hand reached up and brushed lightly against her silk covered breast.
"Fai?" she said nervously as his touch became a caress and his lips travelled down her neck to her shoulder, what is he doing? Naru's here too, what is he thinking? She wondered in shock, feeling more and more uncomfortable by the minute, "Fai, stop!" she said firmly as she tried to pull back gently, but Fai didn't release her and pulled her closer, "Fai stop!" she cried as his hand swept across the edge of the robe trying to get inside.
"She told you to stop." Naru said threateningly as he pulled Fai off and pushed him away with a glare. Mai backed away so that she was shielded by Naru and watched as Fai glared back at Naru before he dropped his head momentarily and lifted it again with a tired groan.
"Oh, Shibuya-san. Good morning…what was I doing? I'm terribly sorry, I seem to be so forgetful of late." He said apologetically, "Now, what was it? Oh yes, Mai, I heard what happened! Are you alright? And you Naru, I heard about the attack. I'm relieved to see you are well," he asked worriedly with concern etched into his features. Mai blushed and went forward to stand beside Naru,
"Yes, I'm fine thank you." She replied, stealing a side ways glance at Naru, who wore a mask of calmness.
"Indeed, thank you for your concern." He replied,
"Well, if you need anything don't hesitate to ask." Fai said with a smile before backing out of the room and closing the door.
"Are you alright?" Naru asked, not looking at her as she looked up at him.
"Yes…he was possessed wasn't he?" she said, not really asking a question since she knew what the answer would be.
"Yes. Those times when he says he's being 'forgetful' are blank areas where the spirit is taking control…I must admit I'm surprised he hasn't realised there's something wrong." He replied thoughtfully.
"What if he does know that there's something wrong, but he doesn't want to admit it?" she asked thoughtfully,
"It's a possibility. We'll have to confront him about it at some point." He replied as he made to walk away, pausing as he felt Mai's hand on his wrist,
"Thank you." She said, releasing his wrist. He looked over his shoulder at her and Mai could have sworn she saw that foreign warmth in his eyes that she had seen the previous afternoon. I really have to get my imagination under control. She thought as she shook her head while Naru looked back at the papers.
"Mai! Come on! Hurry up!" Monk-san called impatiently from the front door. Mai hurried down the stairs and grabbed her coat from the stand as Monk-san went out. The snow was at least five inches deep as she stepped in it, her feet beginning to feel numb, "What took you so long?" he asked looking at her short skirt and legs covered only by her long socks, "Maybe you should have asked Fai if you could borrow a pair of his trousers." He added as an after thought.
"Naru caught me on the way down and asked me to measure the temperature in each room." She replied as she picked up some snow and dropped it, rubbing her hands together with a small shriek,
"Alone?" he asked in disbelief as the door opened and John appeared with his hands in his pockets,
"No, John helped me, but where were you? You're not supposed to be alone either." She reminded him firmly,
"I can take care of myself, besides, it's day time." He replied,
"Naru was attacked this morning, it doesn't matter if its daytime or not!" she replied, throwing some snow at him. Monk-san lifted an arm to shield his head and got hit on the arm and then the waist as John joined in with Mai,
"Hey! Two against one's not fair!" he complained as he leaned down to pick some snow up, getting hit on the head. He aimed at Mai and threw his snowball, getting a satisfying shriek as she snow hit her shoulder, but his smugness she short lived as John launched some snow at his face, hitting him dead centre.
"Hello, not working?" Fai asked as he stepped outside to join them.
"Oh, Fai-san, good morning. Naru told us to take a break, there's not a lot we can do right now." John replied brightly, rubbing the side of his head as Monk-san threw a snowball at him. Fai laughed lightly as he saw Mai and Monk-san bending over in fits as John rubbed his head with an expression of surprise and disbelief.
"Please, call me Fai. May I join you?" Fai asked as he walked down the steps to the driveway, where the car and van were sitting covered with snow.
"Of course, you can partner me." Monk-san replied as he got ready to throw another ball at John, but was stopped by a counter ball from Mai, which knocked the ball out of his hand so that John could get another hit in. "Damn!" he said as John's snowball hit him square in the chest. Mai laughed with John until she felt something hit her lower back. She turned to see Fai smirking at her with another snowball ready for launch.
"May be we should have tried to get Naru and Lin-san out here. It would be more fun with six." She said as she threw a ball at Fai, who dodged and charged her, grabbing her waist and forcing them both to the snowy ground. She looked up at him with a flushed face and wide eyes as she felt his knee gently pressed between her legs.
"You're very lovely when you're flustered." He said as he got to his feet. Mai quickly followed, trying to hide her blush. She looked up and saw Monk-san hiding down behind his car while John was in front near the van trying to spot him,
"John! Look out! Behind the car!" she shouted as Monk-san got read to throw a ball. John turned in time to see the ball flying at him and dodge it,
"Thanks Mai!" he called as he threw his ball, hitting Monk-san in the shoulder as he ran. Mai laughed, shivering and stamping her feet in the cold. She felt a pair of arms go round her from behind and looked up to see Fai looking down at her with an innocent smile.
"If you come inside I'll warm you up." He said in her ear quietly, licking gently behind her ear as he leaned his head on hers. Oh no, not again! She thought as his hand moved down her waist. "Come inside…Mika." He purred,
"Mai! Can you come here?" a voice called. Mai looked up to the front door and saw Naru watching her intently, leaning on the door framed with his arms folded and his legs crossed. Without a moment's hesitation she broke free of Fai and ran up the steps, "I told you to be careful." He scolded as she stepped inside and he eased the door shut.
"He's definitely possessed! He called me Mika!" she said as her heart calmed down, strange, I didn't even realise it was beating so fast. She thought as she looked up at Naru, feeling it flutter lightly as she locked eyes with him for a moment.
"We could exorcise, but there's no guarantee that it won't take over someone else." He said thoughtfully.
"Hey Naru, why don't you and Lin-san come out and join us for a while?" she asked, looking at his serious expression as he worked over the case in his mind.
"No thank you. We have work to do." He replied as he turned away to walk back to the living room,
"Please?" Mai said pleadingly as she grabbed his wrist to stop him from walking away. "It would give you time to observe the subject of your investigation." She added, trying to tempt him to change his mind.
"You're not going to get me out there." he replied firmly,
"You really think that hm?" she said slyly, forcing a gasp of shock from Naru as she threw the door open and pulled him outside. He stood stunned for a moment before feeling something cold and wet trickling down his back through his shirt. He turned and saw Mai looking at him innocently as he shook his collar, shivering at the sudden cold.
"I'll get you for that Mai!" he said in exasperation, all thought of work forgotten as he focused on revenge, his blue eyes glinting maliciously. Mai laughed and ran down the steps, not looking back as Naru jumped down and followed, his longer legs allowing him to catch up to her eventually as he chased her down the driveway.
"No! Naru! I won't do it again! I swear!" she cried as he grabbed her around the waist and held up a fist of snow with a sadistic grin. He reached towards the front of her top and tried to pull it open as she gripped it shut and shrieked in objection, struggling to free herself. In their struggle Naru slipped and landed on his back, soon finding Mai on top of him with more snow in her hands, reaching down towards his collar,
"I don't think so." He said as he grabbed her legs and twisted so that he was lying on top of her between her legs. She shrieked and threw a handful of snow over his head as reached for her top with a snow filled hand, managing to get it in inside the collar,
"Oh god it's cold!" she cried, shivering beneath Naru's body as he smirked down at her, the snow in his hair slowly melting, and a few drops of water dripping onto her cheek. Naru reached up and wiped the tear like drops away, bringing their faces closer together until she could feel his warm breath on her lips as he moved closer, closing his eyes unconsciously,
"Naru? Are you out here?" Lin's voice called in concern. Naru gasped, opened his eyes and froze, his eyes widening slightly as colour crept into his cheeks. He got up and turned away from Mai, quickly heading back towards the house.
"Yes, I'm here." he replied as he hurried up the steps, his shirt and trousers wet and covered with snow.
"You're soaked through! What happened?" Lin asked in disbelief and concern as Naru met him at the door,
"I'm fine." He replied quickly, stealing a glance back down the driveway as he hurried in doors. Mai sat up and watched him go, I haven't seen that face since I threatened to tell everyone about his spoon bending, what's wrong with him? She wondered in confusion as she got to her feet and looked around seeing Fai, John and Monk-san still running around by the car and van. I didn't realise I ran so far. She thought as she walked back up the driveway, which was about two minutes away. God he was so close! I should have kissed him! She thought as she approached the van and looked up to see John fall backwards as two snow balled hit him in the chest.
"Mai! Help!" he cried as more snow balls flew in his direction. Mai laughed and grabbed some snow, flinging it at Monk-san as John scrambled to her side behind the van. As she looked back she saw Monk-san shaking the snow out of his long, and now loose, hair,
"Dead! Dead! Dead! You two are so dead!" he shouted in frustration as he grabbed more snow and hurled it at Mai, who dodged back and then looked at him with her tongue poking out. "That's it! This means war!" he cried as he ran at her with snow in both hands,
"Mai run!" John said as he grabbed some snow and hurled it at Monk-san, who kept running as it impacted his shoulder, smirking as he launched both snowballs at John and made a grab for Mai, who fell back in the snow with Monk-san on top of her. Monk-san laughed and dumped some snow over her head as she struggled beneath him. "Monk-san, you're open!" Fai called as he pointed over Monk-san's shoulder. Monk-san paused and turned his head, getting hit in the face by one of John's snowballs. "Okay! I surrender! I've had enough, are you guys coming in?" he asked as he climbed off Mai and helped her to her feet.
"Yeah, I think I'll change back into that robe and put this through the tumble dryer again." She replied as she brushed the snow off her legs.
"Oh, You want to go curl up on the sofa with Naru." he teased as they walked back to the door, feeling a fist hit his arm. He laughed and looked down at Mai's blushing face, ruffling her hair playfully. "Go get changed. I'll put your clothes in the dryer." He added as he followed her up stairs. Mai went into her room and quickly changed into the pink robe, sighing as her limbs began to warm up again. As she opened the door she saw Monk-san in a large navy blue bathrobe with his clothes in his arms. He held out his arm and took Mai's clothes just as John exited his room wearing a white robe like Naru's.
"I'll meet you in the living room." She said as they walked down the stairs. Monk-san went off to the kitchen as she and John walked into the living room to find Lin sitting in the chair he had occupied the previous afternoon and Naru on a sofa, once again wearing the white robe. Mai looked at him hesitantly before feeling a hand on her back. Looking over her shoulder she saw John smiling at her encouragingly as he eased her in Naru's direction. She allowed herself to be pushed until she was beside Naru and sat down beside him, looking at her hands as she clutched them nervously in her lap, why do I feel so awkward all of a sudden? She wondered as she saw Naru shift his gaze to her from the corner of his eye before flicking them back to the paper he was reading. She felt the sofa slump beside her and turned gratefully to John, who had sat down next to her.
"Mai, are you enjoying your dancing lessons?" John asked after a moment of silence.
"Yes, though I don't think I'm very good at it." She replied sheepishly.
"Nonsense, you were doing fine yesterday." He assured with a bright smile. "I've only danced a few times my self. It's fun once you get started." He added,
"I didn't know you danced, wow, it seems like I'm the only one who doesn't." she said. "What are you reading Naru?" she asked as she turned to look at the seventeen year old. He glanced up in annoyance, "Don't look at me in that tone of voice. You're just sulking because I put some snow down your shirt aren't you?" she teased, seeing anger flash through his eyes momentarily at the jibe.
"It's research, the content of which a person with your limited intelligence wouldn't understand." He replied, feeling and looking extremely smug as Mai's eyes sharpened angrily. How can he be so…arrogant! She thought heatedly as she sat back,
"I think I'll go up stairs for a while." She said as she got up,
"Not alone you're not." Naru replied without looking up,
"Fine! I'll stay down here then." She replied as she leaned back on the sofa, sighing in boredom before suddenly feeling tired. As she fell asleep she felt her body slip and hit something warm and soft yet firm, she also heard Naru say something to her, but was too tired to care.
