I don't know why, but Ghost Hunt is one of my old favorite series... and Mai's latent physic ability reminded me a lot of Hyper Intuition, the spirit guide and so on... she also easily looks related to Tsuna LOL and I think... Why not?

Disclaimer: This is a fanfiction, means both series aren't mine DX

Sky-like Cousin

Mai was an orphan, and both of her parents had no one else left either so she was on her own. Plain and simple, and in spite of what other people said she was never sorry for herself. She was luckier than most orphan, she had enough to support herself and everyone around her loved and support her. So she was content with herself, although she hoped her boss could be less condescending to her. Could he at least not insulted his intelligence at least once a day? That aside, she had nothing she was not satisfied with.

SPR team was like a family to her, so it never crossed her mind that someday a relative would come knocking her door and introduced himself as her cousin. Sharp intuition or not she also never dreamed that her cousin would come in a black limo, and dressed like a mafia boss.

"My name is Sawada Tsunayoshi, and your father is my father's cousin." He was a young teen around her age, and it was not hard to see their resemblance. The same hair color, skin complexion and the shape of their face.

He smiled at her warmly, "You can call me Tsuna."

Tsuna was perhaps the kindest guy she ever known, he was almost like a saint. His kindness reminded Mai of John a little. Especially because Tsuna was very understanding that Mai was reluctant to move in with their family, apparently their family was an old and big family. They had two main residences, one in Italy and another in Namimori.

He didn't want to force Mai to part with her friends, in fact he didn't expect Mai to come with him at all. He said even though they were her family by blood, they had no right to taker her away from her current life.

"Beside… even though our family is wealthy and powerful, we put heavy responsibility and duty in every member…" Tsuna looked guilty and sad when he said this. "All I wanted when I learn of your existence is… to know whether you're happy."

Which was understandable, considering she had no parents or guardian.

"If you want… we can send you monthly allowance." Tsuna offered sincerely, and when Mai was about to open her mouth to decline he continued. "We're very wealthy, monthly allowance for a high school student would hardly put a dent to our fortune, Mai-chan…"

Mai shook her head, "Iee… I mean I have a part time job and it pays really good!" She exclaimed, "I am not swimming in cash or anything but I get by with it every month!"

For some reason Mai had a feeling her cousin knew right away that she meant her pay was enough to pay rent, food and other bills but for girl's fancy need like make-up and clothes she hardly had any to splurge on those.

"I see…" Tsuna crossed his arms and somehow it reminded Mai a little of her boss. "Mai-chan… I know you're happy that you can support yourself, but as a family I want to have a part in your life at least a little so… can you at least accept the monthly allowance? It's alright if you don't want to use it… just save it for your colleague. In fact… why don't we pay them for you but you can still pay your other needs yourself." He suggested.

It was a tempting offer to Mai because she knew that while she was not as dumb as Naru said, she was not smart enough to get scholarship that would allow her to get free tuition. While her part time job paid well, it was not going to be enough for both college and daily needs.

"So… when I can meet your employer, Mai-chan?" Tsuna asked cheerfully.

She haven't say anything yet but it seemed Tsuna already knew what she was going to say. Strangely she didn't feel offended that he didn't wait for her answer like Naru did. It was very strange, since they met her intuition always said that,

He knew she knew, so it was alright.

"Uhm… I haven't tell you what my job is… "

Great, it was always awkward to explain her job to other people, even if this was her cousin.

This must be the shortest chapter I have ever written in my life as fanfiction writer XDDD

BTW can anyone tell me why in copy-paste doc manager we get 'strike text' but it's not functioning properly in the end? What's the point of that?
