Pairings: Midorima x Ghost!Reader

Midorima Shintarou hates cats. Cats are ill-tempered animals and they have bad attitudes when you offend them in the slightest. Not that he's complaining, he just hates them and the feeling is mutual. (No it isn't related to that many times he was scratched by a cat. Nope, Nada.)

But still it doesn't explain this American Shorthair cat is following him. The cat entered the piano room while he was there. He was playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata in the piano that he didn't notice that thing entered. Imagine his surprise when he sturned his back and saw the cat. Said cat was meowing at him, in what we call adorable. But no! Midorima won't be fooled. Behind that (impossibly big and cute) green eyes there is an evil intention. And that is to annoy him (and scratch him.)

He was having a staring contest with a cat that he was startled when he heard a girl's laughter. He turned around and saw a girl with a long (h/c) hair and (e/c) eyes. She was standing by the window and was wearing a white sun dress that floats etherally around her. She tucks that loose hair behind her ear as she gives him an amused smile.

"Loki..." And the cat was hurrying at her, it meows delightedly as it purrs on her feet. She picks the (evil) cat and begun to
rub it behind it's ears.

"You play the piano beautifully." Midorima at this point noticed that he was staring and looks away.

"Thank you." He pushes his glasses in the bridge of his nose as a matter of habit.

"Will you come here again tomorrow?"

Midorima doesn't answer but the cat meows for him.

xoxoxoxoxoxox

'Stupid cat.' He was suppose to go home after the basketball practice but the 'devil' cat appeared at the gates and meowed at him
angrily. He was tired but then again the cat threatened to hurt him by brandishing his claws. He might have suffered a few scratches
here and there but he finally agreed to go to the abandoned music room. It looks so stupid to argue with an animal but he oh well...

And she was still there, the girl looking at the piano longingly. The sound of the door opening startled her out of her reverie and she
smiled at him.

"I thought you won't come back... Everybody just leaves." The damn cat is looking at him with a dirty look and he just knew it.

"What do you want?"

"Play the piano for me? Please."

And that he just can't say no.

xoxooxoxoxooxx

"Takao do you know the girl in the Music Room that no one goes?" Takao only looks at him blankly.

"Shin-chan, you know that nobody goes there except you...Right?" Midorima looks at him blankly but he was bewildered inside.

"There's this girl that always asks me to play the piano for her. She's wearing the same white dress everytime."

He can't ignore the sudden rush of coldness that seeps down in his spine.

"Oh! Is she cute??? Introduce me to her!"

And with that Takao followed Midorima at the Music room after the practice.

'She was still here, thankgoodness. And I thought I was going crazy.'

"So where is this girl you're talking about?"

"Are you an idiot Takao? She's standin-" She standing in front of us and Takao can't see her. He snapped his neck to her direction that it hurts and there she is looking at him with sad eyes.

But Takao can't see her.

"Hello girl in a white dress! Where are you? Really Shin-chan there's only a cat here."

Said cat rubs itself at Takao's leg.

"Ahahaha! Mr. Cat it looks like Shin-chan is seeing a ghost. Right Shin-chan?"

A ghost... She is a ghost... And she's floating. How did he not notice that?

"-chan? Shin-chan?"

And damn straight if he didn't faint. The last thing he saw was Takao's face laughing, the cat's indifferent gaze and her worried face.

Great, the ghost is worried about him. Damn it all.

xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

"I'm sorry..." He was avoiding the ghost for 2 weeks now. At the first week, he thought things are finally back to normal. He listens to Oha-Asa, manicures his nails for his perfect shot and orders Takao around. But it seemed like the ghost got impatient and at the second she finally walks/glides up to him and asks for forgiveness. Again and again. She even follows him everywhere like a puppy.

She's making doe eyes and brings him flowers everyday until his locker looks like a garden. She also watches him play at the gym and he couldn't help but be proud every time he sees the awe in her eyes everytime he shoots the ball with accuracy and precision.

She was fianlly getting in his nerves, she even follows him in the comfort room. Screw getting scared, he can feel his frustration building up.
And here we are now, the ghost begging for forgiveness.

"I'm so s-sorry. I should have t-told you but I-I can't. I l-lost myself listening to you play the p-piano."

Her eyes tears up.

"Shin-chan..."

*twitch*

"Please?"

"Would you stop that?!"

Only he shouted at her in the middle of class. Everyone looks at him weirded out and the teacher looks at him impatiently.

"Is there a problem with my lesson Midorima-kun?"

"No Sensei."

If he would just look at the ghost, he would see the pain in her eyes and the tears she couldn't stop.

"I-I'm going to leave you alone... I'm sorry..."

He grunted and the ghost finally fades away.

xoxoxooxooxoxoxooxoxoox

He should be relaxing by now, but instead he feels restless. He still can't keep the ghost out of his head.
Currently he's munching on the cereal for breakfast listening to Oha-Asa.

"For Cancers, apologies are important to! Hurry before it's too late!"

Even Oha-Asa tells him to apologize.

"Mom, how do you apologize to a girl?"

"Shintarou finally grew up."

"Onii-san's got a girlfriend~~"

"Dad..."

"Oh, think about what she wants. The rest is up to you."

"I see."

"Shintarou, when can I meet the girl?"

"Nii-chan is cold as ice. I wonder what the girl sees in him?"

His family is very supportive it seems.

xoxooxoxoxooxoxooxoxoox

He went to the old music room but he didn't see the girl. Sighing he pulled the sit and begun playing the song he made.
The melody reminds him of a spring day-field with flowers starting after the harsh winter. It relaxes him when he
thinks about it. Just as the song turned in it mournful note, he remembers looking back. To see the past the things that made him
the way he is right now.

When he finally ends the song he saw teh girl in front of him seeing him in a shy manner. When she saw him looking she glided
and started to fade away.

"I apologize. I should not have shouted at you." Still any way, the girl nodded but didn't disappear.

"I know I'm making excuses but I really don't want you following me. Following me inside the classroom and the restroom is crossing
the line."

She looked at him with shame and she talked with her voice that sends butterflies in his stomach.

"I-I thought you hated me. I know I'm annoying but I-I just don't want to be alone anymore. You were the first one to see me."

Suddenly he felt protective. Still this girl is making him think things that he never thought would pass his mind.

"S-Silly right?"

"I can play the piano for you."

"Really? You're a good man Shin-chan."

"W-what are you talking about?"

xoxoxooxoxoxoxooxooxoxoox

Everyday he visits the Music room. He plays the piano there while the ghost talks his ear off. He also shares his annoyance
with his so-called friends, and what ever his mind can think off. He brags about his awesome shot and that he won't be losing
the next time to Seirin.

She enjoyed it too. Due to her, he learned alot about flowers and the myth behind each one.

"I really like spider lilies..."

"I heard about its relationship to the underworld. You really like creepy things don't you?"

"I'm a ghost remember? I'm already dead."

Somehow he thinks he didn't like it.

xoxoxooxoxoxoooxoxoxoox

In february 14, he got confessed by a student named Mahiro Akira. Mahiro is a responsible student, she's beautiful and strong
and every boy would love to go out with her. But all he could think about was the ghost whose name he didn't even know.
It turns the butterflies in his stomach into something stronger, one that goes straight to the heart.
He had gone and admitted to himself he admires the ghost girl. Her sweet smiles, clumsiness and the way she depends on him.
Before he knew it, it turned into something stronger.

"-ima-kun?"

"I'm sorry but I can't return your feelings."

She nodded and her eyes were filled with tears.

"I know. I just want to tell you. It should be obvious but I can see you're in love with someone else."

He is in love. It's like a slap in the face.

Damn if he knows but he knew she's gone. She's here but she's gone. He'll get left behind and that it hurts. He wonders what will
happen if she knows about it? It's just a story that ended before it started. He wonders what would it be like if she's there
standing alive and in flesh while he plays the piano? He is haunted by the images of a child with green eyes and (h/c) hair.
Did she even feel the same way?

xoxoxooxoxooxoxoxooxox

"Midorima-kun, you're staring..." She squints and looks at him closely. He couldn't stop the heat coming from his face just as
he feels the touch of cold air in where her hand should be.

"No you're not staring, you're gazing. You look at me like something's the matter. Like you're..."

Her eyes widen and tears starts to form in them.

The pain in his face must have been obvious. He started to reach out but she moved away.

"T-This is my fault. I-I'm so selfish..."

He opens his mouth to say something but she looks so broken. Like one word and she would finally collapse.

"Please tell me you're not this foolish..."

And she disappears in the coming twilight, like she was never there... except the cat.

Midorima decided that he really hates cats.

To the proof that the love did exist and something beautiful will always remain at the other side of the shore..
