"Ladies and gentlemen. I bring you a marvelous illusions that make this town sparkle at night! Please enjoy the miracle that is going to happen under the moonlight tonight!"

(Y/N) skates on the ice slowly. She wasn't bad at it, just tried. The events at the bar were still in her head. She couldn't understand why she felt this. So she tried thinking of anything that would get her mind off it. Skating wasn't helping much..
The girl stops besides the wall Kaito stood at, hearing Kaito talk to himself holding binoculars to stare at god knows what. Unaware of the wild Aoko skating towards him. "The culprit is you!" Aoko points at Kaito. The boy jumps in shock with fear written on his face. Aoko placed a hand on his shoulder. "Everything needs to come to light."
"A-Aoko..."
"What, you don't know that famous tagline? I'm talking about the famous detective who just got back from London." Kaito rolls his eyes. "What the hell do I care about that crap?" Kaito waved his hand. "Pairs, London, or whatever, I'm not gonna humor you playing detective."
"Excuse me? You're the one who invited me here, Kaito!"
"It was supposed to be me and (Y/N). I only invited you because your face was practically begging me to invite you!"
"I didn't make any kind of face! What's your problem Kai-troll!" Aoko sticks her tongue at Kaito. Skating away from him. "Wait a sec!" Kaito calls out, but Kaito landed harshly on the ice. He wasn't good at skating, so it made sense on why he fell.
(Y/N) leans down besides him to help him up. "Kaito, try holding my hand when you skate. You can balance better on the ice so you won't fall." The boy agreed, standing up wobbly in front of her. (Y/N) takes his hand steadily, Kaito let's her lead him on the ice.
The two stake carefully together. The male almost tripping here and there. But the tall female made sure he wouldn't fall. 'This is embarrassing.. I would be fine if this is the other way around. Jii-Chan info better be on the money!'

Scrolling through her phone, the h/c hair girl felt a small bumb on her head. Tearing away her gaze from the bright screen. She looks up at Hoshimiya-San. "Good morning, (L/N)-San." Getting into his seat, he turns the chair over to face her.
"Did you hear? I think that London detective is in your friends class." (Y/N) nods, remembering some of the third-year girls gush about him. "Well, anyway. I wanted to know if you can help take some papers to Mr. Takoshi. He's filling in for one of the second- year teachers.
"Hai."
The teen grabbed the important papers and walks to the classroom with Sayo. Some second-years gawk and stare at them in the halls. Mostly Hosimiya for his looks. One second-year bumped into (Y/N) accidentally. Thankfully the papers, nor the male, fell. "Sorry." The third- year said, "it's quite alright. Madame."
Looking down at the student.
(Y/N) noticed he had blonde hair and red eyes. His appearance was clean and nice. He looked friendly from what she could see. So nothing to worry about for now.
"Sorry, Kohai-Kun. (L/N)-San, let's hurry before class ends." The male told her kindly. Both leaving to go back on course. (Y/N) felt the blondie's eyes on her. She didn't bother to return his gaze.
___________________________________________
Kaito snickered, scrolling through his devices screen. (Y/N) was perched on the desk in front of him. She decided to bum around his homeroom before class starts. Kaito was on his phone, mumbling something about Kid going to be on T.V. "Good morning Kaito!" Aoko slammed her hands on his desk loudly. Kaito let out a silent screech.
"Hey, listen to this! Recently I entered a contest to try to win Around the World concert tickets! And what do you think happen?" "Y-You won, I guess..?"
"That's right! A couple of tickets!" Aoko squealed in delight. "Your face gives it away, dingbat." Kaito said with no interest. "Huh?! Say that again and I'm not gonna invite you!" Aoko said angrily.
"It seems you're in a spot of trouble, my lady."
"H-Hakuba-Kun..."
The blonde transfer stood in front of the three. A smile on his face. (Y/N) felt like something was off about the male. He had arrogance like Kaito, but hid it pretty darn well. This "Hakuba", wasn't like that when she saw him in the halls.
"I'm 180 centimeters tall, I weigh 65 kilograms. I was born on August 29th, 1997. I'm a Vigro. And if you don't mind that I'm a blood type A, I would like to go with you." Saguru said to the female brunette, kissing Aoko's hand.
(Y/N) looks over at Kaito. He clearly looked not happy at the other male.
"A man who thoughtlessly refuses an offer from a lady isn't worthy of you."
His voice was sweet to the Nakamori. Aoko's face had small shades of pink.
The h/c girl stepped a bit in front of Aoko. Staring at the small male, (compared to her). With a neutral face. "(L/N)." Hakuba looked up at the tall female, but with familiarity in his eyes. "Oh, you're (L/N)-Senpai. If I remember correctly."
Not impressed by him knowing about her, she simply nods. Hakuba took her hand, but before he could kiss it. Kaito spoke up. "A mediocre detective and a mediocre inspector's daughter. You deserve each other!" Kaito chuckles. (Y/N) took her hand from the blonde. Using it to flick Kaito in the head.
Hakuba takes notice of the h/c girl movement. He used it to his advantage. "I see your partial to Kid. Well then.." Saguru snaked his hand around (Y/N)'s. She almost flinched from the unseen contact. "If I capture Kid, I'll come along with (L/N)-Senpai."
The blonde male kissed (Y/N)'s hand as Kaito and Aoko saw the interaction. Kaito's heart filled with hate towards the transfer student. Masking his anger, Kaito smiles coyly.
"As if somebody like you is going to catch the unbeatable Kid the Phantom Thief." "Unlike you, Kid is a genius. It wouldn't be an easy job. And if I happen to lose. I'll leave you to escort (L/N)-Senpai." Hakuba explained to Kaito.
Smirking, Kaito agreed to the challenge. "Sounds like fun. I don't wanna go to the concert but you've got a deal!" The two boys glare at each other with prideful stares. Clashes of lighting could almost be seen disputing from their eyes.
Aoko was lost at what was happening. (Y/N) couldn't even explain either.
Though the h/c-nette could tell that whoever won this deal would be escorting her and Aoko to the concert.

(Y/N) sat on her couch, with her little brother sitting on the floor in front of the T.V. Far enough that he wouldn't hurt his eyes from starein' to closely. Their father brought out a plate of snacks for the kids. Turning at the T.V curiously, wondering why his kids were so interested.
A female reporter was on screen. Talking with a male with blonde hair by the statue Kid will steal.
"What are you doing, Hakuba-Kun?"
Hakuba gets up from where he was and talks with the reporter.
"Just being contentious. I kind of have a personal stake at tonights showdown." The males face was on screen with a grin.
Another person who was watching the live broadcast. Was in the air vents of the museum. The thief growls. "Why you... What an arrogant jackass." Putting the tablet away, Kid crawled faster in the vents.
"Watch me you third-rate detective. No way I'm gonna let you go on a date with (Y/N)-San!"
___________________________________________
The male (L/N) sees his daughter have a impatient look across her face.
"(Y/N), what's wrong?" Out of her head, she looks at her concerned father. "..Nothing."
(B/N) slightly turned his head at his sister. "Onee-Chan?"
(Y/N) ignored the two. "I'm okay."
Her father knew that look she gave. Her mother would make that look whenever she was troubled with something. (F/N) plants down on the couch with his daughter. "Don't worry (Y/N). I'm sure it's gonna turn out al-"
"Dad, Onee-Chan, look!"
The screen was covered in smoke. The father gasps, while his daughter clenched her fists tightly. "Kid.." She muttered under her breath. (Y/N) could feel her fingers dive into her palms skin. It would be likely that she might cut herself accidently with her nails if her hands kept getting tighter. Her eye's stared at the ground with-!
"No way!" (B/N) yells, having a small sliver of hope. (Y/N) looks up at the screen. "I-It's Kid! Kid the Phantom Thief has appeared!"
"Wow! Outstanding!!" (F/N) claps for the phantom thief. "Did you see that Onee-Chan! Kid's not caught!" Ume said excitedly, watching the screen for the rest of the thiefs hiest.
"..." Her features uplifted slightly. But in her heart. She was over the moon. 'Phew~' (Y/N) watched the screen, knowing Kaito Kid was not out of the woods yet.
Inspector Nakamori runs to the statue where Kid stood on. Kaitou Kid shot his card gun to make the man stop.
"I wouldn't move if I was you, Inspector." Kid states, his tone less mischievous than how it was supposed to be.
"Heh, that's unusually menacing, coming from you." Inspector Nakmori replies. A clear shot of Kaitou Kid shows on the television. "Tonight's job is a little personal..." (Y/N) thought she saw Kid wink at the screen. Almost as if his words were directed at her.
The girl's heart bumps at the fake conclusion. Hiding the dumb feeling away. "Heh, no way.." (Y/N) shakes her head at the idea. Kid then ends his heist, hearing her father get up to make dinner. Her thoughts race.
There was no way Kaitou Kid would know about the bet Kaito and Hakuba made.
Right?
