CA Shorts
AN: Just decided to start this on a whim, this whole CA Shorts thing is inspired by other 'Short' story writers. Just a collection of Conan/Ai shorts.
Please Review, especially if you add this to your watch list. Also, shorts looks like it spells funny right? Or is my sleepiness hurting my head?
Shorts
A single jolly 'not-child' walked down the sidewalk towards home from school. The pat-pat of small foot falls on the side walk creating a pleasant rhythm.
A full backpack swung back and forth, being held only be one shoulder and hand, something that would definitely cause back problems later in life. However, this person was not concerned with long term consequences of that type, or anything at all at this point. He continued to move gracefully down the street.
Now, he wasn't alone. He had been accompanied by four other person, three children and another 'not-child', this time female. However, the long walk cut their number down to the other 'not-child', who walked at a much the same pace, albeit slightly behind the first. Her backpack was secured over both shoulders, she wouldn't have back problems in the future.
They continued on their way, many passing people glancing at these two content 'not children' before continuing without another thought.
Soon the first child came to his destination. A empty gated house, his real home. The female 'not-child' stopping at the house next to it. She turned and the boy gave her a wave and smile before he turned and continued to his temporary home. She responded with a nod and a microscopic smile which grew to a slight grin as she entered the yard.
"He's such a dork, he's only happy cause it's finally warm enough for Mouri-san to let him wear his shorts again." Mumbled Ai in a cheerier then usual tone as she opened the door. But deep down, she was just happy to have his smiling face to look at.
