Love Don't Run
"Ran-neechan" Conan says softy "'Can I talk to you?"
Ran nods and takes his hand pulling him to the couch.
"This is going to hurt" she thinks staring into his nervous blue eyes "This is gonna hurt like hell. This is gonna damn near kill me., sometimes the truth aint easy."
Conan opens his mouth as to say something but quickly snaps it shut and stares into her eyes.
"I know that your scared of telling me something I don't wanna hear." Ran whispers "but, Shinichi believe that I'm not leaving, you couldn't give me one good reason.."
His eyes widen in disbelief before slowly closing "how long have you known."
"About a month or so" she says looking down.
"I understand if you hate me and want nothing to do with me" he whispers.
Ran shakes her head and leans in pressing a soft kiss to his lips " Love don't run. Love don't hide. It won't turn away or back down from a fight. I'm right here and I aint going anywhere. Love's too tough it wont give up no not on us Shinichi …Love don't run."
His eyes widen "Love?" he whispers "Ran you love me?"
Ran blushes and nods "of course I do." she says taking his hand "do you love me?"
He smiles slightly and presses his lips to hers "I love you" he confirms "This is going to be tough Ran. There's people out there that want me dead and I don't want you to be dragged down with me."
Ran squeezes his small hand "This is gonna make us stronger, its gonna make forever longer." she says smiling at him "I know it would be easier to just walk away but, what we got is real. We can do it Shinichi. We'll get through it."
He smiles at her "I love you Ran."
"I love you too" Ran sees all the emotions that he usually hides flash trough his eyes. The hurt, the pain, the guilt every one of them were clearly displayed in his eyes.
Ran eyes begin to sting with tears and she wraps him in a tight hug "its ok to cry" she whispers in his ear "you can let it out in front of me. We can cry together, there's nothing wrong with that is there? Just lay in my arms and let out everything that's weighing on your heart."
Conan squeezes his eyes shut but cant stop the tears from leaking out letting out the anger and pain he'd suppressed for so long. Ran eyes fill with tears as she feels his small form shake from sobs in her arm and his hands tightly grip the fabric of her shirt. Ran squeezes him harder letting out her own sobs.
"Ran" Conan says between sobs "I love you. I'm sorry."
Ran only sobs harder in response. Conan pulls out of the hug with red puffy eyes to touch her moist cheek. Conan manages to smile at her and she can't help but smile back. Conan places a small kiss on her lips.
He presses his forehead lightly to hers "I won't run, and I won't hide. I won't turn away, I just wanna make things right. I'm right here and I aint going anywhere Love's too tough it won't give up no not on us. Baby Love don't run"
