Chapter Thirteen.

Ran couldn't believe her eyes when she saw her childhood friend  standing on her door step, it's normal for him to come for a visit, but what wasn't normal is him agreeing to a meet-up she set for him to get a new friend-or a boyfriend hopefully, anyways, she'd pushed this feeling away and just smiled at her friend, welcoming him.

She felt like her best friend finally surrendered to her evil deeds, as evil as this made her feel, she was quite delighted about it.

"Give me a moment, I'll bring my coat then meet you downstairs." She smiled at her enemy- damn, this evil self, smiled at her ally, er, best friend?  before rushing to her wardrobe.

Shinichi nodded at her, as he went downstairs, obeying what she said, and waiting for her, afterall, she's the one who knows where that meeting is, so he has to obey  and wait for her.

Just as he was about to sigh, thinking she took a lot of time, Ran appeared before him, smiling and holding a coat. "Shall we get going?" She asked, smiling softly at him.

"Yeah, sure." He nodded at her, smiling back and they started walking.

....

"Bakaito!" Aoko's voice echoed through the house, as she chased after her childhood friend. "Why are you always embrassing me?!"

If Ran felt bad about calling Shinichi her enemy, then Aoko should be really embrassassed about it, since calling Kaito an enemy would be a compliment.

Man, let me tell you something, if we were in some kind of a war, and both of them were in the navy then Aoko would surely protect Kaito from all the other enemies but happily drown his boat with her own hands.

She doesn't know how both Kaito and Shinichi will get along, well, Kaito is quite violent or whatever and shinichi is eh, pacifist?

"Embrassing you? But, how the hell am I doing that?" He said, as he ran down the stairs, luckily he didn't slip down or die.

A part of him wanted to agree with her but deciding how much pride would cost him, he decided to back out.

"You know the last time you didn't show up! And, I was waiting for you, but no, you had to do your usual daily task which is embrassing me!"

"I told you, I was busy!"

"You always say that!" She said, walking down the stairs. "Come on, Kaito, please?"

Kaito stood before her for a moment, blinking a couple of times, studying her face before chuckling. "Man, you look so ugly when you're weak." He commented, patting her hair.

Aoko sighed again, more angrily, hiding her anger, but she failed at it. "Good thing you know that I'm always a strong one, unlike the others." She replied, smirking at him.

Kaito was taken back a little, but he hid his emotions, wearing back his poker one. "Heh, what do you mean?" He joked.

"Well, I'm not the one who locked myself in  my own room for two days." She commented, folding her arms together. "Were you crying?"

"I wasn't crying!" But, I was depressed, but I didn't cry!

"Well, I don't believe you." Aoko rolled her eyes, "And, I think that going out would help you getting over whatever is bothering you."

"I don't think so?" Nothing will.

"So something is really bothering you? I wasn't wrong." Aoko smirked again, moving an inch closer to Kaito, who backed away. "But, I don't really care about knowing it, what I care about is you feeling better, and I'm gonna do that whatever the cost is."

Kaito sighed, as he fakely laughed. "Nothing is bothering me, I'm a strong magician, and performer never get hurt." If only he could go back in time, and stop himself from telling that thing out loud.

If only.

"Okay! Then get ready! We leave in ten minutes." She clapped her hands, giggling as she'd put the broom away.

She didn't believe him, but she didn't want to persue him into telling her something he doesn't want her to know about it, if he really wanted to get Aoko involved he would have mentioned that thing for her any time, but obviously he doesn't, but as his best friend and childhood mate, she can only try to cheer him up, and she's very good at it. She smiled laterally to herself. 

.......

"Are you sure they will show up? The last time they didn't." Shinichi wondered, as they got into their bus.

"I called Nakamouri-san and she told me that they are really coming today." Ran sighed.  "You have no idea how much she apologised."

"She had to, we wasted our time on them and she didn't even pat an eye." Shinichi said.

"Not her, her friend."

"So, that friend of her is pretty rude, best first impression ever." He replied, in a careless-tone.

"You're right, the best of all." She chuckled as she watched the people passing  by out of her window.

"I'm not even encouraged, but I figured that I don't have anything better to do."

"I know, and I'm glad you finally gave it a go." She gave him a genuine smile. 

"You know that I don't have anything better to do?" Shinichi jokingly glared at her. "I get why you're single now."

"Well, at least I have dates!"

"Failed ones."

"Is that suppoused to be funny?"

"Yes, it is."

"So lame."

"Thank you~"

.....

"What if they didn't show up?" Kaito wondered as they enter that overly expensive restaurant they booked with the luxurious view and flying fi- finny things, he means, and an alienized waiter- oh, okay, they're too broke to book something like this anyways, it's just some rondom cafe not a really bad one, but not a perfect one either, but well, Kaito has been told by Aoko that they won't be staying in that cafè for a long time or they would be, he didn't really care right now, and he doesn't even know who the hell are they meeting.

"The last time I checked we were the ones who didn't show up." Aoko replied, shooting him a disappointed glare

"Well, that gives them a bigger reason for not showing up, or to be late at least." Kaito shrugged, pulling the chair out as they sat down next to each other.

"No, Mouri-san isn't like that, besides she called me like an hour ago and told me that they're  on their way." Aoko sighed, "But, they're  in Beika."

"Mouri-san? You mean as Mouri Ran? The daughter of that sleeping detective?" Kaito asked, not believing what was happening, well, guess they really should leave before they show -

"Aoko! Hi!" Ran called, waving at them happily with Shinichi trailing behind her.

And, here he thought he would be able to escape.

Fuck that.

Trickster6y: if I didn't reply to most of your texts today then know that I'm dead.

Trickster6y: so dead, I have no idea how fast I'm typing right now and I'm thankful to the auttocorrect.

Trickster6y: like I'm not even looking at my phone and I'm just hiding it under the table so my friend won't see me typing or texting but like you get the point.

Trickster6y: I'll miss you, Sherlock-chan.

Okayyy End of the chapter

So, like let me tell you something, I kinda wrote this chapter on my birthday which was on the 12nd and I was like maaan, I need to rewrite this bullshit because I'm too ugly and I suck, but then I had that exam and calcus is so fucking hard to study.

Then, I like waited for some time and saw that you guys wanted me to update and i was like I need to correct the mistakes, but later I was like fuck it, I'm too lazy and that would take some more months and I can't keep you guys waiting because I love you ♡

Y'know I always write posts on my profile and most of them are about the story but like I have no followers that care about my story so like if I took so long to update check my profile and see if I wrote some dumb excuse or so.

Anyways, I love y'all so much. ♡
