There was a dead mouse in the flower vase!
"GAHHH – oh. Wait." Kaito squinted his eyes, peering closely at the clear glass of the vase. "It's just a flower petal. I think."
Shinichi, who nearly dropped his stack of dinner plates at his startled scream, glowered at him.
"Now that you've given me my heart attack for the day," He snarked at him. "Will you help me set up the table?"
Kaito perked up, grinning innocently.
"Of course~! Anything for my Tantei-kun! The love of my life! The Princess Peach to my Mario – "
Shinichi smacked him.
"Owww!"
"Quit fooling around!" Shinichi rolled his eyes, pointedly shoving the plates into Kaito's arms. He paused, narrowing his eyes. "...and if anyone is 'Princess Peach' here, it's you."
Kaito preened, shamelessly.
"Yes, I am!" He chirped, in a squeaky, cutesy, girl's voice, before sashaying away.
Shinichi stared, momentarily distracted by the view, before shaking his head and grabbing the cups.
