Disclamer: No, I don't own Detective Conan and its characters. But I am a fan!

Warning: Yaoi, Slightly AU, and the coupling is Kaito(Kid) x Shinichi!

Chapter One:

The Beginning...

The full moon shined brightly with a mysterious and an alluring aura, lightening the dark, black darkness of the night. The faint silen of the police cars. The eye-catching neon signs. The busy streets filled with busy people even in this time of the night. No, take that back, this early morning.

It is right now 12:05 A.M.

Detective Kudo Shinichi sighed and muttered just one word. " Cold."

Well, lets see. He is only wearing a white polar shirt and black jacket made from thin, cheap material. Though, it is only mid-autumn, the air will be cold if staying out this late in the night. And he is, right now, standing at the edge of a roof of a hotel. The cold, night wind blows on his slender body.

…Now how can you say it is not cold?

So, why is he standing here? Alone? At night? Let us see.

"It's cold…damnit," muttered Shinichi to himself. " Why am I even out here in the first place again?"

…The great detective, himself, doesn't know why he's out here. What's with that?

" Oh yeah," Shinichi spoke up, " I'm here because of that stupid thief."

Ah, now he remembers!

Shinichi narrowed his beautiful, blue eyes. The eyes that looked through everything. The eyes he used to solve the mysterious cases. And the eyes that the great phantom thief, also known as Kaitou Kid, fell in love with.

Yes. Ever since that Clock Tower incident. The Great Kaitou Kid fell in love with this Great Detective. The Detective of the East. Also known as the Savior of the Police Department.

Of course, Shinichi, himself, who is quite naïve when it comes to love relationship, doesn't know about the Kaitou's feelings towards him. No matter how many times the Kaitou confesses his love, it never gets through the detective.

Poor Kaitou.

…Anyways, back to the detective.

" What the hell was with that card anyways? ' I'll meet you at the roof of XXXX Hotel.' ''

The detective sighed again, " Why do I have to come out here in this cold night for that stupid thief."

"…I would be happy if you've said ' Phantom Thief'. "

"?"

" Good evening, Great Detective." The Kaitou smiled. Landing gracefully on the fence without even a sound. His long, white cape fluttered in the flowing wind. He kept his white silkhat down as though to cover his face with his hands, which was covered in white gloves. And possibly the only person in the world who would look good with a fullmoon in the background.

"Da…Damn you! Don't just appear so suddenly like that! You almost gave me a heart attack. Are yo trying to kill me?" Shinichi said, half angrily and sent glares at the Kaitou.

But the Kaitou just placed his usual pokerface. " I'm sorry. It was just that you were so deep into your thoughts. I thought it would be rude to interrupt."

"…Well, anyways, why the hell did you send me that card? What kind of thief would want a detective come to his crime scene?

" Of course, to meet you!"

Are those hearts emitting from the infamous Kaitou's body?

"………I'm leaving."

" No! Detective! Don't leave!" The Kaitou literally had to hold onto the detective's shirt to stop him from leaving.

How pitiful…

" Let! Go! I am not going to waste my precious time talking with the likes of you!" The detective tried to pry off the Kaitou's grasp.

The usual and famous pokerface was gone from the Kaitou's face.

" What is there that is more important than having a meeting with me?"

"Of course…" Shinichi made a smile. But Kid can see that his eyes weren't laughing, moreover, it was filled with silent anger. " …reading mystery novels. Now. Let. Go."

Kid sighed in defeat and finally let go of the detective's shirt. " Detective, when is it that you will finally acknowledge my feelings for you?"

" Huh? What feelings? What the heck are you talking about?" Shinichi said as he continued fixing his wrinkled shirt.

It felt as though a heavy rock fell on Kid's face. For countless times, the Kaitou confessed his feelings. Using cards, magic, anything. He even went as far as to say his feelings straightfowardly to the detective. But all that hard work just burst into nothing as though like a water bubble.

" Shinichi!Don't tell me you forgot all those things I said to you!" Kaitou Kid was not Kaitou Kid anymore. More like his day-time self, Kuroba Kaito.

" Huh? What?" Shinichi just tilted his head in confusion. But that gesture just incites the Kaitou's feelings.

( Gods, Shinichi! You are so cute! Please don't do that! Or I won't be able to hold my emotions! )

Of course, even the great detective doesn't have the power to read people's mind. Shinichi just tilts his head further and narrows his eyes.

( Ah, those eyes! More valuabe and precious than the Big Jewels out there. I want that for myself! Shinichi!)

The Kaitou cried silently inside his head.

It's been almost a year since Kaitou Kid made alliance with the Great Detective to destroy the Black Organization. And the detective was able to return back to his normal, teenage body with the help of Haibara, who was able to make the antidote.

Edogawa Conan disappeared. But it's been said that he had transferred to a school in L.A., where Shinichi's parents are. Haibara decided to restart her life as a kid, but at times she changes back to her normal body, Miyano Shiho, when she feels to relieve her stress.

And one of her stress management was of course, to make fun of this Kaitou. She knew of the Kaitou's feelings towards Shinichi and was at first planning to bother him, whatever it takes. Because Shinichi was so important to her. In her view, he was her Messiah. A trail of light that helped her walk out of the darkness. She even had a slight infatuation towards the detective. But maybe because of her pride and her will to just watch from behind, she never confessed her feelings. She is now Shinichi's personal doctor. Because of drinking such a poisonous pill during adolescence, Shinichi's body was not able to grow as much as a normal teenager anymore. Instead, he became more slender and weaker, and from Kaito's and some people's view, more alluring, than even most of the beautiful girls out there. Periodically, she checks and diagnoses him.

Of course, to Shinichi, Shiho is one of the few people he can rely on. He looks to her as a sister (but slighty older) and trusts her very much. He knows that if there is something wrong with his body, he will go straight to her. Since, Shinichi doesn't really like going to hospitals and doesn't trust the doctors these days, it is really grateful for him to have someone who knows about his body more than any other doctors out there.

Anyways, back to Kaito's story.

From Kaito's view, he had really thought that Shinichi would stick with Mouri Ran. And if that happens, he would give up his feelings for the detective. But, to his surprise, Shinichi never did stick with Ran. Once, he had asked the detective why he didn't return to Ran's place after returning to his normal body.

" Well…" Shinichi answered hesitantly, " It's true that I had feelings for Ran. But I guess, as being Conan, I was always by her side the whole time, that feeling changed into family love. I regret for not being able to answer her feelings. But I guess things change. Besides, she already told me that she has someone else. If she is happy, then I don't mind."

He remembers the detective's sad smile that time and it hurt his heart. And at the same time, it gave him the hope that he still has the chance to attain Shinichi's heart.

As soon as he made up his mind, The Kaitou revealed his identity in front of the detective. But was surprised because the detective already knew who he was and what he was looking for. He was even surprised to know that Shinichi knew Kuroba Touichi, Kaito's father, who was a famous magician before his tragic death. Touichi and Yuusaku, Shinichi's father, who is also famous being a mystery novelist, were best of friends, as of what Shinichi says. Even Yukiko, who is another famous person for being a beautiful actress before marrying Yuusaku, was friends with Kaito's mother. Shinichi said that Touichi had visited their house many times when he was little. This made Kaito jealous because then his father was able to meet Shinichi without him knowing.

(Oyaji! How come you never told me about this?)

If the Great Magician would have been alive, he would have answered,

' Of course, so I can have Shinichi for myself.'

" Still looking for Pandora?"

Kaito, being Kid, was brought back from his thoughts with Shinichi's voice. The detective was staring at him with the Kaitou's favorite blue, sapphire eyes.

Kid sighed heavly, his pokerface back on his face. " Yes. I'm afraid it will be a long time until the beautiful moon goddess will finally smile to me. But of course, until that day comes, I will never give up."

Shinichi smiled, " Good luck then."

The instant Kid saw that smile, his heart started beating really fast.

(Detective, why are you so cute? I just want to push you down to the floor/)

Poor Kaitou.

He is having a very heated battle against his emotions and passions towards the detective.

" Well, I'm gonna leave," The detective yawned, " Haibara's gonna kill me if she found out I stayed up this late."

( Of course, the Lady will never do such thing, Detective! You are too much important to her!)

Kaito knows how important Shinichi is to her. By the way, the reason why the Kaitou calls Shiho, 'Lady', is because he can never call her by her real name. If he were to, then there is a high chance that he will never see the light again. He had recently found out that she is doing some… ' weird ' experiments back in the basement at the Agasa Household.. And if anyone were to call her by the real name or make her mad, then that person will definitely be one of her guinea pigs. She only allows a few people to call her by her real name, for instance Shinichi, his parents, and old Professor Agasa.

To tell the truth, the Kaitou's greatest obstacle was her. He would have to get pass her in order to even be able to get close to the detective. The Lady, was the detective's personal doctor, a reliable sister (somewhat) and advisor, and at the same time, a very strict bodyguard. She only allows people who she really can trust to get close to Shinichi. And she is by far…very, very strict when it comes to choosing who those people will be. Of course, Professor Agasa, his parents, and Mouri Ran are out of the picture since they are already close to Shinichi.

The Kaitou had a hard time going through her. But after a few confrontrations and a few threatenings (?), he was finally able to get an 'OK' from the Lady. He literally cried in happiness after receiving the answer.

But just because of that, he couldn't let his guard down. In exchange of growing back to his old self, the detective lost have of his strength and power. Though, an anitdote, a poison is still a poison. Occassionally, and to Kid's fear, Shinichi experiences massive heart attacks because of the after shock of the antidote. Of course, when that happens, it is usually when Shiho is around, so he was able to hold through it.

But there was this one time, where Shinichi was by himself, he was just walking home after solving a murder case with the police, he received that attack. It was very lucky Kid found him, after finishing his usual night job. He remembers Shinichi's pale face, his brows folded in pain, his ragged breathing and gasps, and his cold hands clutching his chest tightly. The detective's panful words of help pounding in his head from the ears.He thought he was going to turn cold at the thought of Shinichi dying in his arms.

' Detective? Hey, Detective! You all right?' Kid hurried over to the fallen figure he spotted while flying into the night sky with his usual hang-glider. The rain started to fall as soon as he landed.

Through pain, Shinichi managed to look up. But he soon winced in pain again. It felt as though someone grasped his heart and squeezed it tightly. He've experienced this pain before, countless times. But with each attack, the pain increases and feels like a whole new type of pain.

' Aargh!'

' Oi! Kudo!' Kid help sit up the detective. ' Tell me what I can do to help you?'

'Ku...' Shinichi slowly opens his eyes, ' T...ta..ke...m...to..Mi..Miya...no...' He spoke out whatever words he could managed through painful gasps.

' Miyano...? You mean the ' Lady' ?' Kid repeated.

He saw the detective nodding his head. ' Okay, I'll take you to her. So don't you dare die on me, detective. You got that?'

Whether he understood him or not, Shinichi nods his head. The rain was hitting on them. They were both soaking wet. It would be very difficult to fly in this weather, even with the Great Phantom Thief. But somehow, Shinichi knew that the Kaitou will definitely bring him to Shiho's place. He held a faint smile before letting his consciousness fall into complete darkness.

" What the hell are you staring at me like that for?"

Kid looked up to see Shinichi, his cheeks slightly pouted, like what a child would do when he or she is angry, glaring at him. The Kaitou smirked softly to himself.

" May I ask how is your health, Detective?" He asked, ignoring the icy glares the detective was sending him.

" Fine. Oh yeah, I'll at least thank you for helping me out there, the last time. If you weren't there, I'm pretty sure I'd be dead." Shinichi said and almost laughed at the thought of him dying.

Kid, on the other hand, mentally cried to hear the Detective say something like that so simple as it was nothing. (Please, Detective. Please don't say such things...even if it is a joke!)

Shinichi cocked his again at the Kaitou's sudden change of mood. But soon remembered the time, and quickly walked towards the door, leading to the staircase. " Anyways, I really gotta go. You better return the Jewel you stole back to Officer Nakamori. And hope the next target will be Pandora. Bye."

" Ah, Detec..." Before Kid could say anything else, he felt a strangely, murderous presence behind him and quickly turned around. But of course, he, being on a rooftop, won't be able to sense where that presence is coming from. He turned back to the detective, who was already going down the stairs. And widens his eyes in horror at the red, laser light, on his beloved detectives head.

" Shinichi!"
