Yes I'm paranoid, yes I am actually writing a sequel, and yes there will be a big surprise. For all this to be legal, or make sense, Rio is 20. Apparently, Justanotherdreamgirl knows the surprise and is helping me with something. I hope you like this.
Rio slowly opened her eyes and smiled. She slowly crawled out of Kaito's arms which were wrapped around her. 'It's only right if I go make breakfast.' She crawled out of the bed and tip toed down. She smiled as she placed some of the left over pancake batter, from yesterday's breakfast, into a pan. She grabbed two mugs and placed them under the coffee brewer and went back to the pancakes. She flipped them and went back to the coffee. She filled the brewer with coffee beans and turned it on. She went back to the pancakes and placed them on a plate. She began to repeat the pancake steps again. She then heard footsteps coming down the stairs. She grabbed one of the coffee mugs and made her way towards the stairs. "Good morning Kaito." She said as she handed him the cup.
Kaito took the cup, "Good morning, what time is it?"
"6:00." Rio said with a smile, "Go take a seat and I'll go bring the pancakes over."
Kaito looked at her, "None of that was necessary." He said as he took a sip of the coffee.
"It was. I owe you back after all." Rio said with a sad smile.
"Ryoga wouldn't want you to be so gloomy." Kaito said as he placed a hand on her shoulder. "I'll stay for breakfast, but then I have to go. Haruto's probably wondering where I am."
Rio nodded, "Okay. Go take a seat!" She said playfully.
Kaito slightly smiled and went over to the dining room and sat down at one of the chairs.
"Do you want two or three pancakes?" Rio called from the kitchen.
"Two will be fine." Kaito said as he took another sip of the coffee.
Rio walked in with two plates of pancakes and she placed one in front of him.
"Thank you."
"You're very welcome. I'll be right back." Rio said as she headed back to the kitchen.
Kaito looked at the pancakes and slowly sliced a piece for him to try. He had to admit it was pretty good.
Rio returned with a cup of coffee, apparently for herself. "Like it?"
Kaito nodded as he took another sip of coffee.
"Okay then." Rio said as she sat down and began to eat.
After breakfast…
Kaito went upstairs to go fetch his coat and boots. "Thank you Rio." He said as he came back down.
"I owe you still." Rio said as she walked towards him.
"No, you don't." Kaito said as he walked over to the door.
Rio looked at the ground, "Alright. Can I tell you something?"
Kaito nodded.
Rio motioned for him to come closer. She gave him a kiss on the cheek and backed away with a smile.
Kaito looked at her and slightly smirked, "I'll see you around Rio."
Rio smiled as she opened the door for him.
Kaito walked out the door and walked back to his home.
At the Tenjo's residence…
Kaito quietly closed the door behind him. He made his way to the hallway and felt someone hugging him from behind.
"Nii-san! Where were you?" Haruto asked.
Kaito placed a hand on Haruto's head and smiled, "Comforting a friend."
Haruto nodded as he saw something shine on Kaito's finger. "What's that?" he asked as he pointed to the thing on Kaito's finger.
"It's nothing." Kaito said as he walked away.
"Wait Nii-san!" Haruto exclaimed as he ran over to his brother.
"Yes Haruto?" Kaito asked.
"Can you please tell me? I won't tell tou-san if you're trying to hide it from him." Haruto said with a smile.
Kaito sighed, "I said it was nothing. Stop worrying alright?" he said as he continued on his way.
Haruto sighed, why was his brother so stubborn? What was his brother trying to hide? Wait, was it a ring? Haruto glanced back at his brother. "Wait, Nii-san!" he exclaimed again as he ran towards his brother again.
Kaito sighed, "Yes Haruto?"
"Nii-san, are you getting married?" Haruto asked.
"What? Where did you get that from?" Kaito asked surprised.
"You're wearing a ring on your finger, aren't you?" Haruto asked with a smirk.
"I'm not getting married Haruto." Kaito said as he placed a hand on his forehead.
"You are!" Haruto exclaimed with a smirk.
"Haruto-"
"If you're not, then explain. If not, I'm going to tell tou-san." Haruto said with a smile.
"Tell tou-san what?"
The two brothers turned around and saw their father walking towards them.
"Nothing." Kaito said as he walked away.
"What's wrong with him now?" Dr. Faker asked.
"I think he has a girlfriend or is engaged." Haruto suggested.
"Really? Well, I need to go do something." Dr. Faker said with a surprised look.
Haruto nodded and ran off to go find his brother.
Dr. Faker walked away, 'Time to do some research…' He walked over to his lab and looked at the contacts. He dialed the number, once he found it. "Hello?"
"Yes? Dr. Faker?"
"Ah, Chris. Has Kaito been telling you anything lately?" asked.
"No, not recently. I've been busy with a project."
"Oh. Thank you then."
"You're welcome Dr. Faker."
"Goodbye." He said as he hung up.
Dr. Faker looked through the call book and dialed again, "Hello?"
"Dr, Faker-kun! What a surprise!"
"Yes Gauche, now I have a question."
"A question? About what?"
"About Kaito."
"Is he on a rampage?"
"No."
"Oh, well then ask away!"
"Has Kaito told you anything recently?"
"Nothing- wait, he did mention that Ryoga Kamishiro had passed away a while back."
"Oh, I didn't know."
"Well, that's Kaito for ya."
"I guess… has he told you anything about a girl?"
"A girl?"
"Yes."
"I didn't even know he was dating someone! Calm down Droite!"
"Can you come down here then?"
"Yes Dr. Faker-kun. We're on our way." A different voice said.
"Gauche?"
"Sorry, that was Droite. I guess we're coming down."
"Alright."
"If you want to know recent information though, call Yuma or something. Misael, that is if you have his number."
"Misael doesn't have a phone. I'll call Yuma."
"Alright. Have to go know." He said as Gauche hung up.
Dr. Faker peered through the address book, again, and dialed Yuma's number.
"Hello?"
"It's Dr. Faker."
"Oh, hello Dr. Faker-kun! What do ya need?"
"I have a question."
"Yeah?"
"I have-"
"Come down instead. You're better off that way."
"Okay…"
"I'll be expecting you!"
Dr. Faker hung up and sighed. He made his way out of the lab and went into his car and drove off to Yuma's house. Once he got there, he knocked on the door. It immediately opened.
"Dr. Faker-kun!"
"Hello Yuma."
"C'mon in!"
"Is anyone here?"
"Akari went to the station, grandma's gardening and Kotori came over."
"Oh okay." Dr. Faker said as he walked through the door.
Yuma shut the door and sat down on a couch. "So, you had questions?"
"Questions about what?" Kotori asked.
"Questions about Kaito." Dr. Faker said.
"Fire away!"
"Has Kaito told you anything about a girl or has he had any activity with a girl?"
"I'm not sure." Yuma replied as he scratched the back of his head.
"He has." Kotori said as he nudged Yuma.
"Really?"
"Yeah, remember? He went to go check on Rio-san yesterday after the funeral."
"Oh yeah, wait he told you that?" Yuma asked.
"Yeah, he was asking me where Rio had gone." Kotori said.
"Oh."
"Had he had any activity with her of some sort?" Dr. Faker asked.
"Um, yes. I mean they've done some things with each other. I mean, I guess. Rio does say she likes him and all, but that's all I really know." Kotori responded.
"Oh, who is this Rio?" Dr. Faker asked.
"The younger twin sister of Kamishiro Ryoga." Kotori said.
"Oh, I'll have to ask Kaito about here then." Dr. Faker said as he stood up, "Thank you Yuma and Kotori, I must be on my way now."
"Okay, safe trip then Doctor!" Yuma said.
"Alright." Dr. Faker said as he left.
"Wait Kotori, Rio likes Kaito?" Yuma asked as Dr. Faker walked out the door.
"Yeah, ever since the barian onslaught ended." Kotori answered.
"When did she tell you that?" Yuma asked.
"When I was having a girl's night out." Kotori responded with a giggle.
"Oh, okay."
End of chapter! Review please! :D
