"STOP IT!" Everyone turned to face the lady in red, "...He's right...it was me" all but Heiji were in shock as they stared at the lady.
"I-I killed him" She began to tear.
"B-But why Aoi, why?" an older woman asked. With hatred, she rolled her hands into fists, "H-He lied to me, he said he loved me" she gritted her teeth at the next words, "I remember telling him how much I loved him" her eyes grew soft at the image, "he smiled and said he loved me too, but then..." her tears began to fall down her pale cheeks, "I saw him! I saw him from a window with another woman, they were laughing as they were hugging! That cheating bastard! How could he do that to me?"
The victim's sister began to cry, "Y-You're wrong! He loved you! He really did!" she grabbed Aoi's hand, "He was going to propose to you!"
Aoi's eyes widened, her words caught her off guard. "You're lying!"
She shook her head, "he told me he was finally going to propose to you, but that he wanted it to be perfect!" She smiled sadly at her, "he said you told him once how you always thought a guy playing the piano to a girl was romantic, he began taking lessons from her so he could play for you" She started crying, "he was going to propose to you after playing for you..."
Aoi froze, "he..he was taking...lessons..?" her legs gave out as began covering her mouth with her left hand, "wh-what did I do?" she started crying out loud, "Takshima!" her loud sobs made everyone feel sad for her, even the cops stood silent, pitying the poor woman"
Heiji looked back at them, "gomen" he silently said, then left the room

(At his house)
"Oh Heiji, you're back" he looked up at his mom, "solved the case already? That was quick"
He nodded as he started heading towards his room, "is something wrong?" she asked with a hint of worry
"No I'm fine" he smiled a little then entered his room and laid on his bed.
(Flashback)
"Chou?" a black haired girl turned, her eyes blue. "Yes Hattori?"
he felt himself blush, "W-would you, umm would you..." She stared at him, "yes?" She stood there patiently, "Ummm" he swallowed, "Would you like to go out...with me?" He looked the other way, feeling a little embarrassed. It was until he heard her laughing that he turned around.
"I would love to!"
(end of flashback)
He let out a long sigh and stared at his ceiling until he finally drifted off to sleep.

"Heiji! You're going to be late for school, wake up!"
His eyes shot wide open, Dammit, he got up and began to dress. His daily routine began as he took his shortcut. Once at the school, he noticed a crowd of students. Curious, he walked towards them. Once the other students saw him, they pulled away, letting him pass.
"So what's all this?" He asked, but his eyes soon widened at the sight of a guy and a girl. He recognized the guy at once, "Shinichi Kudo?"
At the sound of his name, he turned, "So you've heard of me" he casually said as he held out his hand, "You must be Hattori Heiji, high school detective of the west"
Everyone stared and waited to see what he'd do.
Heiji shook his hand, "So what is the detective of the east doing here in Osaka?" Shinichi smiled, "moved here just a few days ago" the girl next to him elbowed him in the side, "Actually, I moved here because of my dad, this guy" she glared at him, "decided to follow" she then turned to him, "I'm Mouri Ran, nice to meet you" they shook hands as well
"Well, I decided that I needed a change, besides, it's only temporary right?" he gave her a hopeful look
She nodded her head, "Yeah, dad's only gotta stay here for a year or two" Heiji stared at them, confused. "Wait, you moved here because of your girlfriend?"
Shinichi blushed a little, "I didn't say that"
All the girls around him began to 'awww' at him and Ran, "That's so romantic" one of them said
Ran smiled as she pecked him on the cheek, making him blush even more.
Heiji coughed, getting their attention, "Well, welcome to Osaka" he then smirked, "I guess we can now see who's the better detective" Shinichi smirked back, "We'll see"
Ran rolled her eyes, "Oh boy"

(Few months later)
"Oi Kudo!" He turned around to see Heiji running towards him, "So what'd you think about last night's case?"
He sighed, "Too easy"
Over the past few months Heiji and Shinichi had become good friends, solving case after case together. The media couldn't get enough of them, they declared them to be the greatest detectives, and the two grew widely popular much to Ran's dismay.
"So wanna go to the station tonight and see if there's another one?" Heiji at first wanted to prove to Shinichi that he was the better detective of them two, but after hanging out with him, he realized that it didn't matter anymore and that he enjoyed having him around. The cases grew harder and more interesting ever since he moved to Osaka.
"Sorry, can't" he looked at Ran who was sitting at the same table as them, eating her lunch, "Ran and I are going out to see a movie tonight"
It was lunch time and the three always sat together.
Ran waved her hand at him, "Oh no, it's okay Shinichi" He smiled at her, she was always reasonable and kind, one of the many things he loved about her. "Nope, we're going, besides, I'm not in the mood for another gruesome murder" he joked
The bell rang, each of them waved goodbye to each other and headed back to their class.
Once school was over, he decided to just go home, if they need me they can call me, he thought to himself. While walking, he passed by the park that was near by, he noticed that there was a girl just sitting on one of the swings. She seemed to be staring at nothing really, "Probably just thinking to herself" he told himself
But it didn't matter to him, girls were all the same to him.
(Flashback)
"Heiji! You didn't have to get me this!" she held out her hand, admiring the new charm bracelet she had on. He just smiled, "I wanted to, do you like it?"
"Like it? I love it! Arigato!" she gave him a peck on the cheek to which he quickly blushed
(End of Flashback)
He shook the memory away and noticed that the girl was gone. He shrugged his shoulders, trying not to think about it, but there was something about her that bothered him. He tired remembering how she looked.
Her clothes did look different, nothing I've seen in Osaka
When he realized he was home, he decided to think about it later and eat. "Hey mom, did you make dinner?" No answer, so he looked around the kitchen, no food prepared. His stomach growled as he opened the fridge to make a quick sandwich.
He took it to the couch and turned on the tv, watching baseball.
"Well if it isn't Hattori Heiji"
Startled, he looked up to see a girl standing to his right.
He swallowed the last bite of his sandwich.
