Sick


Hakuba Saguru had no idea why, or even why they had bothered to draw straws when it was usually Nakamori Aoko who went to check up on her childhood friend when he was sick.

How he got into this messed was beyond his field of logical thinking.

As he entered the house with the spare key Aoko had given him, he followed her instructions and went up the stairs and made a right as Aoko had said Kaito's room was the third door down.

Hand hovering over the door about to knock, he heard a slightly familiar voice (one which he couldn't pinpoint at the moment) say something and sounding slightly annoyed but loving?

"You didn't have to swallow it you know."

Kaito made a slightly strangled noncommittal noise as he gulped down the last of the bitter tasting substance.

He gave the room's other occupant a defiant stare the seemed to say 'yes I just did that and you can't convince me not to.'

Heaving a slightly long suffering sigh, but smiling despite himself, Shinichi moved closer to Kaito and wiped the slightly sticky white like substance from the corner of Kaito's mouth with his thumb and proceeded to put it in his own mouth licking it off.

Kaito gave a slightly choked squeak his eyes wide with bewilderment and captivation as he saw Shinichi flick his tongue out to lick the substance off his thumb.

Grimacing at the bitter taste, he turned to Kaito saying, "you really don't need to swallow it Kaito."

Blushing slightly, he turned away and muttered, "I want to, it's from you so...I want to."

Grunting with slight disapproval, Shinichi reached over to ruffle Kaito's already way too messy hair and and smiled leaning in to place a small peck at the corner of his mouth where he had wiped off earlier.

Face burning overly ripe tomato red, Hakuba backed away from the doorway as if it was about to attack him at any moment, turned and bolted for the front door and out onto the sidewalk vowing never to visit Kuroba Kaito when he was sick ever again.

"Did, you hear something Kai?" Shinichi asked as he turned his head slightly at the door to give it a contemplating look. Kaito shook his head 'no' in response, his sharp senses dulled by the fever he had.

Shinichi gave a low hum as he stood up and picked up the bowl of rice porridge he'd made and announced that he was going to make a quick trip to the grocery store and buy some instant chicken noodle soup instead.

Nodding, suddenly too tired to even speak, as another wave of fatigue crashed over him, Kaito just leveled himself back into the sheets and drifted off to sleep.


A/N: Because innuendos right hehe. Poor Hakuba I hope he wasn't too scared but I just love torturing *cough* teasing! I mean teasing him!
