Hi all

I'm back for a shot at one-shots.

These short stories will vary in length and some may run for several chapters.

Each one-shot will start with a letter of the alphabet.

Hopefully that makes sense.

I do not own Ghost Hunt or any characters:)

A for Arachniphobia

It was a rather dull day at SPR as Naru turned down two cases, due to both possible clients admitting it could be a matter of checking the cables and wiring. I believe my boss had replied with that same cold unwavering demeanour saying "I believe you need an electrician, I think you may have a problem with the circuit" at this the husband of the second client had responded with a pointed glance at his wife as if to say 'I told you so' "Mr Shibuya, are you sure it's the wiring, what if it's a spectre or ghost" the wife or as my notes had called her Mrs Watanabe, argued annoyed that yet another man was ignoring her claim about a ghost haunting her house.

"Very well Mrs Watanabe, if it would offer you any reassurance" my boss began taking a slow sip of tea "my assistant could look into it for you" he finished as I could see him smirking at me behind the cup. 'Me or Lin' I thought as he said that.

"Oh that would be great! Finally I can relax" Mrs Watanabe got up from the sofa and did what could be described as a victory dance. "Mai, please take their details" Naru said walking into his lair as I got an address and number of the less than thrilled husband before the couple left.

I looked at the address, it was pretty far from the office. "Mai tea" the narcissist called as I made my rounds to the kitchen for what felt like the tenth time that morning. I placed the tea leaves in and began step by step making the tea.

After boiling the kettle and letting the leaves soak for awhile, I assembled the tray and placed two cups on it before heading to Lin's office and knocking.

"Hi Lin san, cup of tea" I chirped as I set the cup down as he acknowledged with a nod before resuming his typing on his keyboard. 'He seems more into his typing than usual' I thought as I left heading towards Naru's office.

I knocked on the door as I heard a faint "come in."

The rest of this one shot will be continued in chapter 2.

P.s. I'm aware oneshots normally are a chapter in length but I felt the need to split it over a few.
