Okay, this idea just came from the top of my head. Hope it's a good one.

The Love between Two

"It's time to leave Sakura," a young, twenty-four year old woman called out.

A little girl, around four, whined as she came into the living room, "Okaa-san, I don't wanna go," the girl pouted cutely.

The strawberry blonde woman sighed, 'She has the same attitude as him.'

"Don't you want to see your friends today?"

The small girl thought about it for a while before nodding her head happily.

"Alright, let's go shall we," the woman smiled gently.

Somewhere else…

"Shinichi where were you last night?" A twenty-three year old brunette asked.

"There was a huge case last night," a handsome man at twenty-three with chestnut hair and cobalt blue eyes said.

"But you missed my karate match. Your cases are coming in more frequently," Ran said.

"I know and I apologize. How about I make it up to you by taking a walk in the park," Shinichi suggested.

"That sounds like a good idea," Ran chirped. She grabbed his hand and sprinted out the door.

"Bye-bye okaa-san, I love you," Sakura hugged the woman and kissed her cheek.

"I love you too; now go on before the tardy bell rings."

"Hai!" Sakura took off to class.

The young woman shook her head with a chuckle and began to walk back home.

"So what do you want to do tonight, Shinichi," Ran wrapped her arm around his.

"Um, how about we watch a couple of movies," Shinichi said.

"Let's try that new restaurant that opened a few days ago."

Shinichi was about to answer when something or someone caught his eye. His eyes widened when he recognized the person.

'It's S-Sh-Shiho! I haven't seen her since that night four years ago. She looks even more beautiful than before. Wait…what am I saying? Ran is my girlfriend. But where was she all this time?' Shinichi realized that he was closer to her.

"Hey Ran, go inside the cafe and I'll meet you in a few. I need to go check up on something."

"Okay but be quick."

Shinichi nodded as he walked up behind the girl.

"Long time no see, eh, Shiho?"

Shiho froze in place as she heard the familiar voice. 'Why out of all days must I run into him?'

She turned around with the same cold expression on her face, "Nice to see you again Kudo-kun."

A shiver went down Shinichi's spine when he heard her voice, "How's life? Is there anything new?"

"Everything's fine Kudo." Shiho replied dully.

'Still cold as ever?' He sweat dropped, 'Something about her façade changed though, her expression seems warmer than it was before.'

"C'mon Shiho, we've been friends since the ninth grade. Call me Shinichi."

"Maybe I will, maybe I won't. Can I leave now?"

He shook his head, "Nope. Not until you say my name."

"Kudo-kun, there I said it, now move," she said, becoming frustrated.

All of a sudden, he hugged her tightly.

"Kudo, what are you doing?"

"Hugging a friend," he replied sheepishly.

'Actually I don't know why I'm hugging her. It feels so right and she's so warm for a cold person.'

Unconsciously, Shinichi hugged Shiho tighter and buried his head in the crook of her neck. He inhaled her delectable perfume.

"Kudo. Kudo-kun." Shiho whispered in his ear, "Shinichi," she said a little louder.

Shinichi pulled back with a grin and was blushing, "Told you I'll get you to say my name," he said cheerfully.

"Yes, you've finally got me, big whoop," Shiho said with sarcasm. "Now release me."

To her surprise his face became serious, "Where have you been all these years, Shiho? I've been looking for you but everybody wouldn't tell me where you were, I missed you," he said truthfully.

"Why are you saying things like this? You left me by myself in that place. Don't you have a girlfriend?"

Shinichi wanted to say no but he was always truthful.

"Yes. Four years ago I knew what we did but didn't know how it happened. I panicked…" he was interrupted.

"Well then it seems that I have no reason to stay here any longer. Goodbye Kudo," Shiho said while walking away from the dumbfounded detective.

Shinichi sighed dejectedly and went inside the café to meet up with Ran.

"Who was that you were talking to," Ran asked with a hint of jealousy.

Expecting to hear 'Oh she's nothing important but a fan' she heard something that made her even more jealous.

"That woman is my best friend back in high school, Miyano Shiho, you remember her. I haven't seen her in a while and now she's back," Shinichi announced happily.

'Now I remember her. Shinichi was always with her and they seemed like more than friends. When she disappeared Shinichi was a wreck and his eyes looked regretful.' Ran was about to ask more questions but refrain to do so, 'I'll keep my eye on him,' she vowed silently.

"Did you order anything?" Shinichi questioned.

"No, I was waiting on you."

"Ah, well let's order already."

"I'm not really in the mood for any coffee. Can you walk me back home?"

"Oh, if that's what you want." Shinichi said.

'He didn't even try to beg me to stay,' she thought angrily.

'So he finally admitted about leaving me the next day after that night. Why did we have to drink that much at my house? I loved him…no, I still love him but he's taken. How am I supposed to tell that foolish detective that he has a daughter? That'll ruin his life.' Shiho thought as she sat down on the couch.

"I'll see you tomorrow Ran," Shinichi shouted as he walked away.

Moments later he arrived home. He went into the house and upstairs to his bedroom.

'I need a nap,' he thought. The last thing on his mind before he fell asleep was Shiho.

Flashback…

"Would you like anything to drink," Shiho asked Shinichi.

"Yeah, I'll have a glass of Sherry," he responded.

"Here you go Kudo-kun. Now we should get started on our research," she smirked.

"I told you to call me Shinichi," he pouted.

"Aww, poor tantei-kun," she teased, taking a sip of the wine.

Shinichi glared at her playfully and downed the first glass.

"Just say it once," he begged, refilling his glass.

"You're pathetic," she sighed.

He downed the second glass and another one, "Please, I'll be your friend," he began to slur as the alcohol started to take over.

'Great, he's drunk already,' she thought.

Shiho sat beside him, "I'm already your friend baka. You're drunk."

"No I'm not." He argued. "If I'm your friend already, then let's be something more," he whispered huskily before pressing his wet lips upon hers.

Shiho gasped, Shinichi took that advantage and slipped his tongue inside her mouth. She tried to push him away but he wrapped his arms around her slender figure. When she couldn't get loose, she parted her lips away from his. It didn't work; instead Shinichi placed his lips on her neck. He nibbled on it gently in his drunken stupor. Shiho couldn't help but moan softly. He stopped the assault on her neck and moved back up to kiss her again.

As the alcohol started to affect Shiho, she accepted the kiss; Shinichi ran his fingers through her hair and deepened the kiss. Their tongues battled for dominance and the winner was Shinichi. He explored her sweet cavern and finally sucked on her tongue. She whimpered and wrapped her arms around his neck.

He pulled away, "I love you Shiho," he whispered softly, "ever since I first met you."

"I love you too," she said, caressing his cheek.

The words spoken between the two were the actual truth, even in their drunken state.

Shinichi smiled and lifted Shiho up bridal style and went straight to her room, to her bed. He laid her down gently and claimed her sweet pink lips. Clothes were scattered and the night was filled with passion,

The next morning Shinichi woke up with a mild headache.

'What happened?' He felt something warm on top of him, 'its Shiho, oh my, she's gonna kill me.'

He froze as the events from last night came back to him, 'She's really gonna kill me. What have I done?'

Shinichi slowly rolled Shiho off of him. In a hurry, he found his clothes and quickly put them on. All dressed, he took one more glance at the girl, 'She's so gorgeous. I just want to kiss her one more time.'

Deciding to give into his desires, Shinichi went towards the sleeping girl and brush his lips against hers before pressing them more firmly.

"I love you and I hope you'll forgive me. I never meant to hurt you," he said and left the room quietly.

End of flashback

Shinichi woke up with a gasp.

'Shiho accepted me that night and returned my affection. And I didn't rape her. Damn it, I shouldn't had left her instead I ran off like a coward. That's probably why she never called me anymore.' He ruffled his hair in frustration then checked his watch.

'Whoa, it's already 2:00. Might as well go and get a bite to eat.'

"Okaa-san I had fun today!" Sakura grinned as she embraced her mother, "We had an ice cream party!"

Shiho smiled, "It does sound like you had a good day. Do you want to go get something to eat?"

Sakura nodded yes.

"What would you like to order sir?" A waitress asked the detective.

"I'll have sushi," Shinichi answered, "and a glass of water."

She wrote down the order and flashed a wink before leaving the table.

Shinichi ignored it, "Shiho, where are you? I want to see you again."

'Whoa, shouldn't I think about Ran?'

"You rang Kudo-kun…I mean Shinichi?" A voice called out sarcastically.

Shinichi's heart skipped a beat, looked up and saw Shiho with a small girl holding her hand.

'Is that her niece? No, it can't be she looks like Shiho except for her eyes.'

"Hello Shiho. Is this little girl your niece?" He asked to find out.

A smirk tugged at her lips, "No, this is my daughter, Miyano Sakura."

Shinichi stiffened, 'Shiho has a daughter? Who's the father?' He thought as jealously ran through him, 'How dare he abandon his child and her mother.'

Okay, a little bit of drama going on. Is it good or not? Will Shiho ever reveal that Shinichi is actually Sakura's father? Review and you shall see but seriously REVIEW!
