Author's Note: Hi guys! I'm back again. I was going to make this into a one-shot but thought to myself that I should do two-shots once in a while. This is now my second fic about DCMK and I still absolutely love KaiShin.
So fun fact about me. I Love Jealousy Fics. I always find it so amusing when Jealousy stories about my fav couples are abound especially when the one who gets jealous is the one who usually doesn't. I just find it so exciting to read. I know people may get sick of that trope so I apologize but this is what I wrote. I actually thought about this around the same time I made Roommate Struggle.
Knowing that, this should be under the same universe. So yes. This is after Roommate Struggle and all four boys are roommates. YAY!
Once again I apologize if they're OOC. Sorry for grammatical errors! And please please review!
P.S. LilianRosas24 I saw your prompt literally when I wrote half of this. But since I'm a huge fan of jealousy fics I think I'll be doing your idea soon! In fact I think I already slipped in what happened in the story ;) Thanks for your review!
And you may send me prompts for KaiShin! :D

Does Shinichi ever get jealous?
That was the million dollar question that was plaguing Kaito's mind at the moment as he was stirring his hot chocolate. He had no idea why it suddenly popped into his head but it ended up sticking.
Kaito sighed as he tried to rack his brain for any moment in the past where Shinichi was showing even a tinge of jealousy. He couldn't recall any moments of him flushing when he gave roses. He couldn't remember any time he flushed when he flirted with his admirers. Or maybe he just wasn't paying enough attention to his favorite detective.
Ruffling up his hair, Kaito with a frustrated groan said out loud. "Ugh. Now I'm curious!"
This called the attention of Hattori who was attentively reading the newspaper. He looked up at him and replied. "Yeah I know what you mean. Even I'm curious about the anonymous tipper."
Kaito looked at his Osakan roommate with a clueless look in his eyes. "The who what now?"
Hattori's eyes widened as he slammed the newspaper on the table. "The anonymous tipper? The one everyone's talking about?" He said as he pointed to the front page of the newspaper.
Kaito glanced at it for a second then looked back up at Hattori now donning a bored look on his face. "Never heard of him."
"He's all over the news. He's been dropping envelopes full of crimes committed by random people. This morning he snitched on a guy who's been active in a drug ring." Hattori said with a wild look in his eyes.
Kaito held up his hand to stop the dark-skinned detective from going any further. "Umm…yeah. While that is interesting, I wasn't talking about that."
Hattori looked at him and rolled his eyes. "Honestly for someone's who's supposed to be Kid I would've thought you would follow the news."
Kaito clicked his tongue at that. "First of all I'm not Kid! You and Hakuba need to stop your annoying accusations. It's getting tiring. Secondly, can we finally go back to what I wanted to express?!"
Hattori studied him for a moment and let out a huge sigh. "Fine. But only because I know you would get revenge by turning my hair green one day if I don't." He said as he leaned his head on his propped up arm.
Kaito broke out into a smile. "I was thinking more of chartreuse." Hattori rolled his eyes at that and gave him a look that said 'Well get on with it.' "So it's been bothering me. I can't help but wonder but does Shinichi ever get jealous?"
Hattori looked at Kaito for five seconds then without a word immediately went back to the newspaper on the table. "Hey!" Kaito said, offended. With a snap of his fingers, the newspaper Hattori was reading scattered into tiny pieces. Hattori growled at him.
"Well you ignored me!" Kaito said in a hurt tone. "I know you think it's a silly question but I'm honestly curious about it!" He defended.
Hattori drummed his finger on the table looking like he was contemplating on strangling him but after closing his eyes and taking a deep breath he decided to answer him. "Look I'm sure Kudou gets jealous. It's perfectly natural. He's just not as dramatic and over the top about it like you."
Kaito gasped in mock hurt. "I'm not over the top!"
Hattori raised his eyebrow at that. "You set that boy who hugged Kudou on fire."
Kaito wore a smug smile on his face at that memory. "Like I said, I'm not over the top. He deserved it! Besides, I didn't set him on fire. I only attached a piece of flash paper on him. It disappeared right after!"
"Uhuh…yeah. That is the definition of over the top." Hattori said he fixed Kaito with an accusing glare.
Kaito gave a pout. "Well since I'm not talking about me how about we get back to the topic at hand, Shinichi."
Hattori shook his head. "I honestly did not move in to this apartment just to be your couple counselor." Kaito narrowed his eyes at him that just screamed that he was going to do something bad to him if he continued. "Arghhh! Ok! Ok! Why does it matter?! Why do you want to know if Kudou gets jealous anyway?!"
Kaito tapped his lip consideration. "Well I guess it's sorta cute. I mean just the idea of Shinichi's face flushing because my attention has been caught by somebody else is just so attractive."
Hattori held up a hand and covered his eyes with the other. "Ewww! Ewww! Ewww! Images! Terrible images in my head!"
"Well anyway!" Kaito continued ignoring Hattori's reaction. "I guess sometimes jealousy can also be a sign that he really likes me."
Hattori looked at him incredulously. "Are you doubting one bit that Kudou likes you?! Because I would slap your head right now if you did?!"
"It's just nice okay!?" Kaito said as he crossed his arms before him and put on a pout. "I mean wouldn't you feel worried if Toyama-chan didn't mind you obviously flirting with another girl?!"
Hattori's face turned red at that. "Ok…fine. I get it. But what are you going to do about it?! Put all your effort in making Kudou jealous?"
Hattori felt his heart constrict as he looked at the growing smile on Kaito's face. "Oooh! I can do that!" Kaito grinned as he got up from his seat and quickly dashed to his room."
Hattori watched as the door slammed behind Kaito and shook his head. "Well at least it's not my problem now. Good luck to you, Kudou."
"So what's so important that you have to drag me away from the police headquarters?" Shinichi tiredly asked as he was being yanked by his boyfriend.
"It's a secret!" Kaito bubbly answered as he turned a sharp right into another district. Kaito was glad that Shinichi just sighed and went along with it. Shinichi could deal with not being able to feel his arm for a while. After all, Shinichi should know by now that if Kaito wants it, there's no stopping him from whatever he wants to do. And if he was somehow stopped… well… he always had ways to get even.
Trying to keep up with Kaito's pace so his arm would still remain intact by the end of this ordeal, Shinichi had slammed right into Kaito's back when they suddenly came to a stop. "We're here!" Kaito chirped happily as he looked at the building in front of him.
Shinichi rubbed his poor nose that got squished from the sudden collision. Kaito watched how Shinichi's inquisitive eyes took in his surroundings. Shinichi then read the small poster placed right in front of the door.
"Magician Night?" He asked Kaito and raised his eyebrow at him. "Why are you bringing me to this?"
Kaito patted Shinichi's shoulder and beamed at him. "To support me of course! And then you can see just how amazing I am compared to all those other magicians."
Shinichi sighed as he looked at him. "I already watch you every Saturday. I know very well how good you are." Shinichi whined. "I don't want to go to an event where we both know very well a lot of those magicians don't hold a candle to you."
Kaito blushed at that and flashed Shinichi with a grand smile. "Aww Shin-chan! I didn't know you're even capable of giving me such high praise."
Shinichi scowled at the use of the nickname, "When will you stop calling me Shin-chan? And hell, I'll even tell you that Houdini has nothing on you if I get to go back home and rest." Kaito saw as Shinichi's shoulders dropped down tiredly.
Kaito bit his lip. Seeing Shinichi this way always made him want to turn back and shove him under a blanket to rest. But Kaito shook his head and resolutely decided to push things forward. He pulled Shinichi by the waist and kissed his cheek. "Look I promise you! It's going to be fun. And if the other magicians are terrible, at least you can criticize to me about how their tricks were easy to see through." Kaito said as Shinichi looked at him.
Two seconds of contemplation later, Shinichi breathed out a sigh of defeat. "Fine! But I get to bring you to a Sherlock Holmes convention. No complaints whatsoever." Shinichi raised his eyebrow as he gave his ultimatum.
Kaito smiled back at him and dropped a quick kiss on Shinichi's lips. "Let's go!" he said and quickly pulled Shinichi in the building.
"Must you do such embarrassing actions in public?" Shinichi scolded with a blush.
Magician Night turned out to be a lot bigger than he thought it would be. Kaito knew it was an invite only event. He didn't realize it would be a decked out invite only event. The stage was complete along with curtains, smoke machines and spotlights. He had an inkling that there were fire and water effects present too.
There was an open bar with bartenders already mixing drinks. Music was pounding from the heavy duty sound system. Waiters and waitresses in shimmering costumes carried trays of Hors D'oeuvres. There were even round tables with assigned seating. Kaito was at a lost. Was this really the event he was invited to? If it was this upscale why wasn't he told about rehearsal times? Or at least a chance to get his bearings of the stage. Wasn't this supposed to be a pop up on stage and show them what you got kind of thing?
Kaito heard a whistle beside him. "Looks like I underestimated what you were bringing me into." Shinichi said as he took in the surroundings. "I honestly thought it would be like mic night not some extravagant party. Luckily I just so happened to be wearing a suit." Shinichi commented then his eyes flicked at him in understanding. "Oh! Is that why you brought me straight here after work so I'm already in formal attire?"
Kaito gave him a small smile. "Umm yeah. Of course I did!" Kaito affirmed as he refused to look at Shinichi in the eye. "Let's go with that." He murmured to himself.
"What was that?" Shinichi said not hearing what Kaito said over the music.
"Nothing! Let's just find out seats!" Kaito said as they edged towards a hostess who was looking at a list of names.
The two gave their invites to the hostess. When she opened it she looked up at Kaito in surprise. "You're Kuroba Kaito! The up and coming magician everyone is talking about! We were so glad to hear you finally accepted the invitation!" She said with excitement twinkling in her eyes.
Kaito smirked as he thought that he might as well start on his objective now. Making sure to keep Shinichi within his peripheral view, he quickly pulled out a white rose and presented it to the host. "A rose for you my dear although I think it pales in comparison to your beauty." He said while he flashed his charming smile. "And I truly am glad that I decided to come here tonight or else I wouldn't have been able to meet you."
The girl instantly flushed red all over and nimbly took the rose. "T-t-thank you." Kaito internally cheered as he glanced over to Shinichi. He felt his smile drop though as he saw Shinichi thanking a waiter as he was given a glass of champagne.
Kaito clicked his tongue. Looks like Shinichi didn't even spare them a glance. "I'll lead you to your seats now Kuroba-san." The hostess said as she called the two of them to attention, giving Kaito a small smile.
The two of them were led to their seats which happened to be right in front of the stage. "Ok! Kuroba-san you can choose to wait here until it's your turn or you can go behind the stage to start preparing for your performance." The hostess informed him with a smile. "Your guest will be able to wait here and enjoy the refreshments, food and program. You can join him after your performance as well." She finished and then proceeded to go back to the front.
Shinichi looked at Kaito and gave him a teasing smile. "Did you even prepare for this event?" Shinichi asked him
Kaito smiled back and gave a shrug. "A magician is always prepared! Spontaneity is something I live by." Shinichi gave him a small smile much sweeter than the hostess could ever give him. "I don't think you can impress everyone here with simple card tricks. Even my standards are suddenly raised." Shinichi bantered.
Flashing a smile and giving a wink a dove flew out and landed on Shinichi's shoulder. "While I'm gone at least he will keep you company." Shinichi fondly pet the dove and then it occurred to him. "The hostess mentioned that you turned down their invitation before. Why did you only accept the invite now?"
Kaito sometimes cursed how perceptive Shinichi was but before he could think of a good excuse a person called out to him. "Oh is that my darling Kai-pyon?!" Kaito couldn't help but wince as the reason why he avoided this event walked straight to him.
Putting on the most charming smile he could muster he turned towards the 30 year old brunette who was beaming at him. "Ahhh Kimura-san. It's great to see you!"
Kimura-san then, to the surprise of Kaito, pulled him into a tight hug. "Aww don't be like that Kai-pyon" Kaito couldn't help but flinch at that nickname. "Go ahead and call me Ayaka-chan." She cooed.
Kaito wanted to say that he wouldn't even try when he looked at Shinichi. Shinichi was still petting the dove on his shoulder and gave it small kiss. Kaito must have hit rock bottom if he was getting jealous of a dove. Deciding to put his plan into action, he grandly took a bow and reached for Kimura-san's hand. He planted upon it a swift kiss and looked up at her with his charismatic eyes.
"Well then Ayaka-chan" Kaito tried not to yack when he said it. "I must say thank you for inviting me to this event."
Kimura-san gave a high-pitched giggle as she eyed Kaito with interest. "It really is a shame you've been turning down all my invitations after all this time but when you finally accepted I had to make this event the biggest yet!"
Kaito inwardly scowled. He rather wished that he had nothing to do with this woman at all. He met her once after performing at some social gala. He never liked the look she was giving him when she introduced herself. When they conversed she often bragged about heading a business that dealt with shipping famous Japanese brands across the globe.
It was only when she caught him alone, while he was on the way home that she offered him a deal. Kaito however held his tongue as he politely declined her offer to share the bed with her for just one night. Unfortunately, somehow she had discovered where he lived and never failed to invite him to a number of events for him to perform in.
When Kaito devised his plan to get Shinichi jealous he decided that it had to be with a person who he knew had a fancy for him and someone who he wouldn't have regretted using for his own gain.
Kaito straightened up and kept smiling at his admirer no matter how irked he really was. "Oh by the way Ayaka-chan. This is Kudou Shinichi." Shinichi stood up gracefully and Kimura-san gratefully took the hand that he offered.
"My oh my. Are you the Kudou Shinichi who's been appearing in newspapers left and right?" she said with a vixenish drawl.
"All good things I hope." Shinichi charmingly smiled at her back
Kimura-san looked at Shinichi and flicked her eyes back to Kaito. "Has anyone told you that the two of you look so similar?" Shinichi smiled at that. "It may have come up from time to time."
Kaito however definitely did not like the way Kimura-san was eyeing Shinichi. "I must apologize Ayaka-chan! But would you please show me the way to where I can prepare for my show?" Kaito gave her a dazzling smile. Kimura-san smiled back a sultry smile and lifted a finger to trace his jaw.
"Why of course my darling Kai-pyon!" Kimura-san uttered. "It would be my pleasure"
Kaito held back the gag that he would have emitted and uttered back with a charming gaze. "No no Ayaka-chan. The pleasure is all mine."
Kimura-san then started towards the stage, expecting Kaito to follow. Kaito looked back at Shinichi to see what his reaction was when he saw that Shinichi was now picking out a snack from the tray held out by a smiling waiter. Realizing that he was being watched, Shinichi looked back up at him and gave him a smirk. "Good Luck! I expect that you won't let me down."
A little miffed that Shinichi didn't seem to be bothered at all, Kaito rolled his eyes at Shinichi's detachment and donned a seductive smile. "Now when have I ever let you down?!" Kaito then leaned forward to whisper into Shinichi's ears. "Be ready to be amazed Tantei-kun."
Shinichi chuckled and whispered back. "It better be one hell of a show then, Kid." Kaito placed a small kiss to Shinichi's cheek and swiftly went towards the rooms where he would prepare.
"How you were able to bring out a flock of birds is beyond me. I know you had doves and maybe other birds but a peacock? Where the hell did you get a peacock?" Shinichi said quizzically. Shinichi then stopped his praise and narrowed his eyes at Kaito. "You better not be keeping the peacock in our apartment or I will be forced to call animal control."
Kaito laughed as he twirled the cowlick on Shinichi's head. "Aww you're no fun. But honestly, with three detectives in the room do you honestly think I can hide a peacock from all of you?"
Shinichi rolled his eyes. "I'll keep you to it."
"Kai-pyon!" Kaito slightly cringed at that terrible nickname. He made sure that Shinichi wouldn't notice. Kaito turned to look at the lecherous woman and stood up to greet her. "You were absolutely amazing Kai-pyon. It's such a shame that it had to end so soon."
Kaito then grinned at her and gave her a wink. 'Come on Shinichi, just get jealous dammit..' "Well then. I'll be sure to invite you to the next performance. I'll make sure to sit you right in front so I can see you clearly when I perform." Kaito flirted and Kimura-san responded in kind.
"Why wait for the next performance?" She lasciviously smiled. "Why…we can meet again later tonight." Her fingers mapped the shape of his bottom lip. Kaito wanted to hurl. She then opened up her clutch and pulled out a card. Without breaking eye contact she laid a kiss on the paper containing her number and slipped it between his collar and his neck.
"I'll be waiting." She said provocatively and sauntered away. Feeling like he was going to be sick he hastily plucked the card from where it was lodged and went back to look at Shinichi.
Kaito couldn't help but feel his blood boil. Not only was Shinichi not even looking at him but he was chatting with the waitress about something. Not knowing what to feel he marched towards the two.
"…in some company that sells Japanese brands worldwide." Kaito heard the waitress say when he pulled Shinichi away. He couldn't care less if it seemed a bit rude.
"Hey wait!" Shinichi said as he was jerked along. "Thanks again!" he said to the waitress who was left standing there, confused at what just happened.
Shinichi looked up at Kaito, bemused. "Ok what's going!? Why are we leaving so suddenly!?"
Kaito quelled the disappointment boiling in his stomach. It wasn't Shinichi's fault that he was too dense to feel a shred of jealousy. Right now, all he wanted to do was get away from this place as soon as possible. He honestly felt like he was going to be sick.
"Kaito!?" Shinichi called once again when Kaito didn't reply. "Where are we going?!" He questioned, frustrated.
Kaito then turned to give him a sultry smirk. "Why Shin-chan I am going home to take a long shower." Kaito couldn't wait to scrub the parts that old bat touched. He felt like insects were crawling all over him.
Kaito then continued with what he said as he threw a lustful gaze at Shinichi. "And to make that shower all that sweeter, you're going to join me."
Kaito always loved seeing Shinichi blush.
So I'll be back hopefully soon! School is starting soon and I want to get this done as soon as possible! I hope Chapter One is okay! Thanks a bunch!
