Author's Note: Hello everyone! ^^ It's been awhile since I've written a story. I took a break from Detective Conan for awhile and came back to see that Yumi-tan and Chukichi still don't have like.. any fanfics, (T_T) so naturally as a hardcore shipper of them, it was my job to help change that XD Also, I am sorry to anyone who may still be waiting for my "Yumi's Move is Shukichi's Checkmate" fanfic. I still may finish that someday if I feel motivated enough. But to kind of help get back into the swing of writing, here is a completely separate Yumi x Shukichi story! ^_^

PLEASE READ: This story is written from the perspective that the events of file 847-849 or episode 730-731 never happened. I wanted to give my own take on their reunion after the breakup. Hopefully this isn't too similar to past stories I've written for them haha. Again, I'm not much of a writer, but since they have so few fanfics, I take it upon myself to do it. XD Also feel free to give me feedback! I love getting it whether bad or good lol.

With all that out of the way, thank you and I hope you enjoy! ^^


It had been a pretty overall uneventful day for traffic cop, Yumi Miyamoto. She had been patrolling the streets of Tokyo all day, and there wasn't a single crime or violation to be found. She was also all on her own today as her usual partner, Naeko Miike, was back at the office filing reports. She wouldn't have minded this fact as much, but not having someone to at least talk and gossip with made the day feel that much slower.

"Ughh I'm so bored! There's nothing to do!" Yumi exclaimed with a loud groan as she sat in the patrol car just waiting for something to happen.

She was tempted to call Miwako to get the latest news on how her relationship with Takagi was going to help pass the time, but she knew they were busy on a murder case right now.

Yumi silently chuckled to herself as she recalled some of the schemes she came up with in the past to help push those two together. There were the times when she tried to make Miwako jealous, like when she gave Takagi tickets to a magic show and pretended they were going on a date, or the time she and Takagi had to dress up as a married couple during a case and she flirted with him just to get a reaction from Miwako. Then there were the times she would trick Takagi into buying fancy jewelry for Miwako, when in actuality it was really meant for herself.

Despite it all, deep down Yumi had good intentions and genuinely just wanted to see them happy together. For some reason, she felt that teasing them seemed to fill some weird empty void within herself she couldn't quite explain. Now that they've been together for a while, it almost felt like she hadn't been able to mess with them much these days. The same went for Shiratori and Kobayashi-sensei, and inevitably Chiba and Naeko once he finally realized she was his first love.

"Dang it! All of them are in a relationship and I'm still alo-"

Yumi's body suddenly went stiff as she was overcome with a flood of memories about her long time ex-boyfriend, Shukichi Haneda.

"Tsk, Chukichi, I haven't thought of that name in awhile.." She bitterly thought with a slight smirk.

It had been 3 years since the breakup. They had met in a subway back in her college days, and they dated for several years before she eventually dumped him. In the beginning, the relationship was going great, and Yumi was truly happy to be his girlfriend. They would go on dates at least once or twice a week, and she was in regular contact with him. But while he was a loving and affectionate boyfriend, he had an awful habit: he always kept her waiting or was too busy to spend time with her. Even though it irritated her to no end, he always knew how to make it up to her, whether it was with gifts or through his actions. Yumi could never seem to stay mad at him for long, so she tried to make things work.

However, as the years went on, it only got worse. Shukichi was growing more distant and only had time for a phone call every now and then. She was lucky if she could even go on a date with him anymore. She was starting to get fed up, so she gave him an ultimatum. She told him that she would be beginning her career as a policewoman, and that if they couldn't continue to have a future together, she'd have to breakup with him.

Shukichi was visibly distressed by this, so he gave her an envelope and told her to hold onto it until he collected all 7. Yumi was confused, but decided to trust him and wait for whatever the 7 things were. However, after waiting for what felt like forever, she couldn't take it anymore and ended it once and for all.

Even though it had been 3 years since these events went down, there was still a part of Yumi that couldn't bring herself to move on. Perhaps teasing the others about their relationships was how she coped with not having Shukichi in her life anymore.

"W-Well, whatever who needs him! What kind of man makes his lady wait for him all the time anyway?" Yumi muttered to herself angrily with her arms crossed. "I'm much better off without him!"

She sat in silence for a moment to recollect her thoughts. She knew she was lying to herself though she hated to admit it. "Oh, damn it he's just lucky I-"

"Yumi-kun!" A loud voice boomed from the computer in the patrol car that practically startled her out of her seat.

"Ah-M-Megure-keibu!" Yumi exclaimed in surprise as she tried to regain her posture.

"W-what is it?"

"We got a call about a hit-and-run. I know today has been pretty slow, so this should liven things up for you!"

Yumi grew a determined expression and a sense of relief to finally have something to do. "Of course! Where's the location?"

"It happened in front of a flat in Chateau Beika." The inspector responded.

Yumi's eyes widened and her heart felt like it was going to pop right out of her chest. The relief she had just felt a moment ago quickly died in an instant. Chateau Beika just so happened to be the same district where Shukichi's flat was located.

Yumi began to sweat nervously. "I-Inspector, surely there must be another office on duty who's not busy that coul-"

"That's an order, Yumi-kun! You're one of the only officers on duty who hasn't had anything to do yet today. Besides, this should be an easy one. I trust you'll be able to handle it, good luck!" The inspector said before quickly hanging up.

"W-wait!" Yumi shouted desperately at the computer just hoping in vain the inspector would somehow hear her pleas and let her off the hook for this one.

She gulped and let the situation sink in for a moment before finally realizing she really didn't have a choice. "Damn it…let's just hope I don't have to see him.."

When Yumi arrived at the scene, she remained in the patrol car for a moment with her face half hidden behind the steering wheel to assess the situation first to make sure Shukichi wasn't there.

"Phew, okay good I don't see Chukichi and his stupid face anywhere. Now all I have to do is deal with this, make the report, and I'm home free!" She thought arrogantly with a smug grin.

As she stepped out of the patrol car, she noticed the victim of the damaged car was talking to someone, but this person was hidden behind the car. As she made her way to the scene of the crime, the mysterious person came into sight, and it was unmistakably the one she had dreaded seeing most. It was indeed her ex-boyfriend, Shukichi Haneda.

"No! Not him! Why does it have to be him of all people?!" Yumi shouted in dismay internally as she begrudgingly continued approaching the scene.

She tried not to make eye contact with Shukichi, but curiously gave in and looked for a brief moment only to see Shukichi looking at her with his mouth wide open and a deep blush overtaking his face.

Yumi scowled in disgust and shifted her gaze quickly. "Ugh, get a hold of yourself, Yumi-sama, keep it professional. Just take this damn report and act like you don't know him."

"I'm responding to a call about a hit-and-run." Yumi said plainly and straight to the point while holding a notebook and pen.

Shukichi continued staring at Yumi in disbelief while the victim eagerly began to explain the situation.

"Oh thank goodness you're here! My car got totally wrecked!" the victim shouted anxiously.

Yumi stared intensely at her notebook trying not to appear interested. "Give me all the details, what happened?"

"I was turning left into the apartment complex parking lot, when all of a sudden this car came out of nowhere and hit the back of my car and sped off. It all happened so fast; I didn't get a good look at the person or what kind of model car it was."

Yumi begun jotting down notes and realized something didn't make sense. She groaned silently and looked up from her notebook and shot Shukichi a death glare.

"Then why is this guy here?" Yumi pointed at Shukichi condescendingly. "What does he have to do with this?"

Shukichi frowned at Yumi's act of pretending she didn't know who he was. He cleared his throat about to explain himself. "Ah, actually-"

"He's my witness!" The victim interrupted. "He claims he caught a glimpse of the suspects license plate number!"

"Is that so?" Yumi said with a now semi-intrigued expression. "If the car was going so fast the victim could barely make out the car model, how were you able to catch the license plate number?"

Shukichi smirked smugly. "Well, as you know, I have a very good memory. I'm the best in Japan, no, maybe the best in the world."

Yumi stared at Shukichi intricately for a moment before snapping out of it and placing her hands on her hips stubbornly. "Whatever, I don't know what you're talking about, but let's hear that license plate number then."

The victim stood and looked at Yumi and Shukichi with a confused look. "Erm, do you two know each other?"

"The license plate number!" Yumi cut the victim off loudly so Shukichi couldn't respond to that question.

"O-of course. It was 757XFM" Shukichi uttered softly.

"Alright, that's all I needed to know. I'll run the license plate number through the computer and we can identify the suspect and get them to reimburse you for the damages. Have a nice day." Yumi closed her notebook and began walking back towards the patrol car trying to keep up her somewhat professional demeanor.

"Thank you officer! And thank you, man! I sure was lucky you were there to witness it!" The victim shook Shukichi's hand gratefully, but Shukichi was trying to catch up with Yumi who was quickly trying to flee the scene.

"Seriously, I don't know what I would've done if you weren't-"

"Ah, it was nothing! Think nothing of it!" Shukichi shouted as he escaped the handshake and began running towards Yumi leaving the victim feeling more confused than earlier.

Yumi put the keys in the ignition and was about to step on the gas when Shukichi put his hand in the open driver side window.

"Yumi-tan, please wait!" Shukichi pleaded desperately.

"How many times have I told you to stop calling me that? I'm on duty, I can't waste my time with this now." Yumi scoffed.

"I'm sorry if I embarrassed you back there, but I couldn't help it! I haven't seen you since-"

"Since when? Since you realized you have more important things to do with your time then spend with me? Whatever, it's better this way! Now move, I have another scene to attend to!" she lied.

"Yumi-tan..that's not it at all..I-"

"Please just let me go, Chukichi." Yumi looked at him seriously and with a hint of hurt in her eyes.

Shukichi stared at her pained expression and removed his hand slowly. "Okay.."

With that, Yumi zoomed off and left Shukichi standing there feeling a heavy guilt on his shoulders. "I think it's time I finally explain things to her."


And there is Chapter 1! ^^ I didn't want to do this fanfic in chapters at first, but then I figured it would make things easier for people who want to read at their own leisure and come back to chapters instead of having to remember where they left off. haha. Also hopefully the characters aren't too OOC. I think aside from pacing, writing perfectly in character is one of my hardest things to deal with when writing haha.

Anyways, please review if you want to give me some feedback! I'd appreciate it! Thanks! Hope you're liking it so far XD
