Thank you DC for reminding me that Enjoying the Moonlight needed to be completed! Some notes: After even more deliberation I am going back on what I said in part two about Miwako's last name. SATOU is the spelling I am going with. Also Part one is no longer part of the "BIG STORY".

Oh my God, I am doing so much editing with that one that it is months behind! It is coming though! To be honest the whole Shiratori and Kobayashi thing forced me to scrap …a lot of subplot that I had planned. But I like the whole Shiratori/Kobayashi thing better anyway. (way better! Good for you Shiratori-san!) I can't wait for File 707!

Anyway, thank you reviewers!!! I disclaim everything, all characters and everything Detective Conan is legal property of the awesome Gosho-sama! (If I ever meet him I will grovel at his feet and thank him for the metropolitan police love stories!!!!!) And tell him that he needs to draw Takagi withouth a shirt on. 0///0 *Faints

Miwako had an interesting time explaining to Megure-keibu about why squad car #03 had not returned to the lot last night.

All in all, the superior officer seemed to accept her explanation and apology after a small amount of fibbing on Satou's part. Takagi had simply stood behind his partner looking sheepish, a hand on the back of his head. He was glad that Miwako could make up a believable story without having to lie too much to the inspector. The only significant deviation Miwako's account had from the truth was the part where she had spent the night at his place.

Just thinking about that, made Takagi blush, his body temperature rising.

The issue of the missing (now returned) cruiser had soon been overshadowed by the subject of Takagi himself.

Megure looked his young officer over as he asked him if he felt adequately awake for a day of work. Takagi answered that he was fine, although still tired.

Despite exhaustion he seemed…alert, aware of things. The inspector had only had a brief glance at Takagi the night before, where he had lain in the body bag. He would have liked to stay, but he had the bothersome task of bringing the criminal, Oikawa to headquarters for questioning. Not that the inspector had really minded. In fact, he had felt lucky, he had his man, Nakamori-keibu was the one short on an arrest…again.

For most of the day Satou and Takagi worked at their desks on various things, mostly paperwork from the previous case. Takagi had been sent some special forms with a note attached from Nakamori-keibu. The note was brief, stating only basic instruction on how to complete the forms and why they were important. At the end of the script, Nakamori had been nice enough to mention that he didn't blame him for Kid's successful infiltration into the villa.

Takagi picked up the first sheet and started to fill it in. Page 1 asked him to write about his encounter in general. He had just finished explaining that Kid had stolen his suit jacket, when someone tapped his shoulder.

Takagi turned around in his chair and was greeted with a charming smile from Satou.

"Here Takagi-kun, I got you a coffee." She said cheerfully, smiling at him.

"Thank you Satou-san…" he said as he reached a hand toward her to accept the steaming cup. Despite this, she leaned over his shoulder and placed it on his desk instead. Takagi blushed; she was very close to him. She had even placed a hand on his back as she did so.

"Uh-um, thanks." His voice seemed to squeak. She slowly stood up, he shivered when he felt her breath on his ear when her lips past it.

She continued to smile at him, the hand still placed on his back, "No problem, just tell me if you need anything okay Takagi-kun."

He nodded in affirmation, afraid to use his voice. He focused his eyes on page 1 of his official-encounter-with-Phanton-Thief-1412 report. His blush deepened as he continued to stare at the page. That had been the third time this morning that Satou-san had approached him. Each time she had been extremely cheerful, treating him with what Takagi would deem borderline affection. She had already bought him two coffees, the second now sitting on his desk. She had asked him at least ten times how he was feeling and wanted to know immediately if he needed help with anything.

She's so sweet.

He dared to look up from the paper and found each and every one of his co-workers glaring menacingly at him. Apparently, Takagi wasn't the only one who had notice Satou's special treatment of him. He looked back down at his hand-writing, Satou-san was always pleasant to him, but this…this was different.

Perhaps what was confusing him the most was that he couldn't find a logical reason for her behavior. Takagi sighed and rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, he couldn't really remember much of what had happened the previous night or this morning. He knew that Miwako had stayed with him overnight, but other than that the only thing he could remember from that morning was eating breakfast.

Most important, were the dream like images of her with him on his couch; of her touching and embracing him, of them almost kissing… He was certain that had been a lovely dream resulting from the powerful drugs Kid had slipped him.

I wish that had actually happened…

He knew he had fallen asleep again after eating; Miwako had woken him up when they had to go. After that he remembered throwing on a fresh suit and driving to work in the cruiser with her.

Damn, it's catching up to me again…Takagi thought to himself as he took a large gulp of his coffee. He decided that it would be okay if he just rested his eyes for a moment. Content with that thought, Takagi folded his arms and laid his head down on them. The usual background sounds of division one seemed to fade away as he unintentionally lost consciousness.

Across from him, Satou Miwako watched her partner fall asleep, she blushed faintly at the slow rise and fall of his back. Her attention strayed for a minute as the phone on the inspector's desk rang loudly. Since her desk was almost right beside the inspector's she heard every word that was said.

Satou sighed, it was Mouri, and there was another case. Another one? So soon!?

Megure hung up the phone and stood from his desk.

"Satou-san, Chiba-kun, you two come with me to deal with this case." Then when he noticed the young, female officer's gaze on her partner he added, "Let's leave him for now, he won't be any use like that anyway." The inspector said as he looked down at the sleeping detective, a slightly annoyed expression on his face.

"Yes sir." Satou answered standing up and pulling off her suit jacket. Megure and Chiba were already out the doors of division one when Satou walked up to her partner's sleeping form, her jacket held in her hands. A soft smile graced her lips as she listened to his delicate breathing.

She placed the jacket over his shoulders, doing her best to cover as much of his larger form as possible. The office could get quite chilly in the summer when the air conditioning was on. With one last look at Takagi she made her way to the double doors. When a thought struck her she froze. Instead of reaching for the handle she turned around and addressed all of the detectives in the room.

"Don't any of you dare wake him up."

The room went dead quite as the officers stared back at her. Despite wanting to do just that, none of the officers would be foolish enough to do so. Lest they bring down Satou's wrath upon them. Pleased with the reaction, Miwako stepped out of the room and made her way down to the garage.

She was grateful to Megure-keibu for allowing him to continue sleeping. While he was a very competent detective when fully awake, she had to agree that his presence would not currently benefit the investigation.

When Satou walked back into division one four hours later, (case closed), Takagi was still sleeping soundly just as she had left him. Chiba laughed lightly as he looked down at his sleeping friend.

"I'm sure it'll be out of his bloodstream completely by tomorrow." Satou said.

Chiba nodded, "I hope so."

The two officers laughed lightly as they made their way to the interrogation room where the criminal waited for questioning.

Thank goodness Mouri-san was there, the case was solved quickly thanks to him. Satou thought as she stole one last glance at her unconscious partner before she closed the door.

Very slowly, Takagi began to wake up. He sat up slightly as his blue eyes opened and focused in on the world around him. Was that Satou's voice he just heard? he was sure it had been.

Where am I?

He rubbed his eyes and looked around as he sat up further. Suddenly his back went ridged when he noticed a familiar scent…her scent. It pleased him in an odd way that he could even identify it as hers.

His face heated once more as he pulled her blue suit jacket from his back. He stared at it as he held the material in his hands. Takagi placed it over his lap, ignoring his blush, as he glanced at his watch. His fingers stopped fiddling with the material when he read the time.

Over four hours! He had been asleep for four and a half hours! Megure-keibu was going to kill him! Or worse, fire him. Frantically, Takagi looked around the room; his superior was no where in sight.

It was already past 8:30, his shift was to end at 9:00.

Maybe if the inspector doesn't come back I can sneak away…Damn, what am I thinking I have to apologize and beg him to let me keep my job.

Takagi noticed the now cold cup of coffee on his desk, the one Satou had bought him earlier that day. I should go heat that up…may need it.

Takagi stood from his chair and placed Satou's jacket over the back of it. Nervously, he looked around the room once more. He noticed many of his colleagues were glaring at him, (as usual). Avoiding eye contact, he grabbed his coffee and headed toward the break room.

Despite the fact that he braced himself every time he turned a corner, he didn't run into his superior. Not sure if that was a bad or good thing, Takagi placed his cup in the microwave and let the appliance do its job.

He had already downed half of it by the time he returned to his desk. A second after he sat down, the inspector along with Satou and Chiba entered through the double doors. All looked to be in a good mood Takagi noticed.

"Look who's awake." Megure said as he walked past Takagi's desk and sat at his own, larger one, at the end of the row. Blushing like mad, Takagi hopped out of his seat and made his way over to the seated officer.

"I am very sorry for falling asleep during my shift! I promise it won't happen again!" He apologized, his head bowed.

Please don't fire me…

Megure looked up at his officer, "calm down Takagi, its fine. Just make a point of working extra hard tomorrow to make up for the lost time." The boy gets excited so easily. The inspector thought to himself.

Takagi looked up at the inspector, relief evident on his features. "Thank you Keibu! I will!"

Not wanting the older man to change his mind, Takagi quickly made his way to his desk. As he sat he noticed Satou-san smiling at him, and looking absolutely gorgeous as she did so. Takagi smiled back at her as he blushed one again.

Determined to show his gratitude, Takagi downed the last of his coffee and started to furiously work away at his reports. He noticed as he worked that Satou had taken her jacket back and was wearing it once again. Too bad…he had enjoyed having it in his possession.

Ok, FOCUS now Wataru.

By the time nine o'clock rolled around, Takagi had finished most of his outstanding work. His special Kid report for Nakamori would be finished at home after dinner.

Once his shift officially ended, Takagi made his way down to his car in the garage. He noticed with amusement that it had stayed there two days. He was about to get in when a voice sounding of soft bells called out his name.

He turned around, already knowing who it was. Satou came to a stop two feet in front of him, another warm smile on her face. "If you're heading home, why don't we grab a quick bite to eat first? I mean…only if you want to."

Was she kidding-if he wanted to? Of course he would love too.

"That sounds great, how about our usual raman place?"

"Perfect, I'll meet you there." She said before making her way to her own car. After a short drive, the two detectives parked their cars and sat together at the open noodle bar. It was a beautiful summer night and Takagi couldn't possibly enjoy it more with anyone else. The moon was especially beautiful.

"Ah, my favorite couple! How have the two of you been doing." Both officers smiled at the kindly owner/cook of the shop. This wasn't Takagi's favorite place just because of the great food. Wataru was thrilled that Miwako did not correct the older man.

"We're great, even though this guy is still a little drugged." Satou said grinning as she ruffled Takagi's hair affectionately.

"Eh? What do you mean?" Tsuko-san asked curiously looking Takagi over carefully.

Despite Takagi's protests, Satou explained to the older man: "He had a run in with Kid."

After a split second, the hefty man's booming laughter had pedestrians on the sidewalk looking over.

"I had read that an officer had been impersonated by Kid in the paper, but I never thought it would have been you, Takagi-kun!" Tsuko wiped a tear from his eye as his wife came out from the kitchen in the back looking amused.

"These things always seem to happen to you Takagi-kun." She said, smiling at him with motherly affection.

Beside him, Satou laughed as he put a hand behind his head; "They do don't they?"

Tsuko looked down at his wife; "Innoue, I think we need two large bowls for our officer friends."

Innoue nodded enthusiastically and disappeared into the kitchen. A moment later Tsuko placed two very large, very hot, bowls of raman in front of them.

Takagi grabbed a pair of chop sticks and split them apart, excited to eat his meal. As he looked down at the noodles, ready to dig in, a large hand patted the top of his head, almost sending him face first into his dinner.

"Your meal's on us tonight Wataru-kun." Tsuko said loudly as he gave Takagi's head a good shake.

Takagi couldn't believe how lucky he was today, "Really? Thanks!"

Extremely pleased, the two officers ate their meals while Takagi was teased by the shop owners. They thanked the old couple profusely before moving toward their cars.

The two stood in-between their vehicles, parked in single-file along the curb of the side walk.

"Thanks for coming to eat with me Takagi-kun." Satou said sweetly as she watched his face go red.

"It was my pleasure! I love-um; I mean it's great to be out with you." Takagi said shyly, at the same time noticing the sudden silence between the older couple in the shop a few feet away.

"Go home and get some rest, I'll see you tomorrow at work." She said, seeming to hesitate for a second before stepping closer to his body.

Miwako stood on her toes, reaching in, and pressed her lips to his cheek. She let herself linger for a moment before pulling back and turning towards her car.

"Good night Takagi-kun!" Satou said before shutting her door. Once the door was closed Miwako giggled to her self. Judging from his reaction to a simple kiss on the cheek, he didn't remember what happened between the two of them on his couch.

Before Takagi could recover or respond she was gone. He stood still, staring wide eyed in the direction the FD had gone. His whole face was burning, especially the spot on his cheek where she had kissed him.

"Wooooh! Good for you Takagi!" Tsuko said, or rather yelled from where he and his wife stood, the flaps of shop entrance pushed aside.

Takagi grinned happily at the older couple before getting into his own car and waving goodbye as he drove away.

No longer feeling tired in the least, Takagi removed his shoes as he stepped into his apartment. With a smile on his face he dropped his Kid report on the kitchen table when his eye caught the mostly un-emptied gift basket sitting on the counter.

He let his mind relish in his happiness as he unpacked the goods. This day had gone very well. And really the person he had to thank for that was Kaito Kid himself. Sure, it had been embarrassing to be caught off guard as an officer and the drugs had made him practically useless for a day. But, there were so many good things that had come out of it! Not to mention that Megure-keibu had been very understanding, he didn't even get scolded.

Thanks to Kid, Miwako had doted on him all day out of concern. For Takagi there was no greater enjoyment! He even got a free meal that was thoroughly enjoyed in her company. And of course that wonderful kiss at the end of the evening. That felt so nice…

Hell, even this gift basket from his parents was just awesome. Wataru's blue eyes danced as he looked behind him at the report on the table. He concluded that Kaito Kid, while a thief, was a great guy. Really cool too. Not to mention his cunning style and skill. In fact Takagi was happy that he had helped the man out, even if only in a small way. Takagi wondered how much of what he did remember about the encounter he was going to include in that report.

Yes, it was undeniable that Kaito Kid was-wait a minute…!

Takagi's brows furrowed in great confusion as he pulled out his grey suit jacket and tie from the bottom of the basket. The ones Kid borrowed…What the?

"The card!" Takagi yelled out loud as he frantically searched the counter for the small envelope he had chosen to ignore earlier that morning. If he was correct this basket was not from his parents but from..!

"Ah ha!" Wataru called as he located the envelope. He tore it open and extracted the note within:

Officer Takagi, thank you very much for you help.

I have returned the articles I borrowed from you. However, I feel I must inform you that I am unable to return the kiss I stole from your lovely partner during my escape.

I hope you do not mind accepting this gift basket as an apology.

Takagi simply stared at the grinning illustration of Kaito Kid drawn at the end of the note. The grin was much too wide, as if it were mocking him.

"That bastard!" Takagi shouted as he slammed the note down on the counter, hurting his hand in the process. Takagi felt like he had been betrayed. He fumed as he mentally retracted all the nice things he had thought about Kid. What was he thinking? Kid was a thief, an enemy of the police!

"If I ever get my hands on that little punk ass-!!"

WAIT!

Kid was disguised as me…according to the letter, he-kissed-her. And she let him...thinking he was actually me.

Does that mean Miwako-san…wants me to...kiss her?

Pushing that overwhelming possibility aside, Takagi thought back to Miwako's wonderful treatment of him, here was the missing explanation for her behavior.

"I see…she felt guilty for falling for the trick." Takagi mumbled out loud as he brought a hand to his chin in thought.

"That's not her fault…I guess." Deep down he may have felt a little sad that she couldn't identify the fake but he decided that she more than made up for it today. He also decided with a greater joy that she even bothered to make up for it because she cared about him.

Some of his anger dissipated as he realized this fact. Still he had a job to do.

Takagi clawed at a pen lying by the sink. He drew the utensil from it's cap like a sword and viciously snatched up the report on the table in his hand. He practically sprinted to the living room where he spread the report out on his coffee table.

Takagi decided that he would get back at Kid by writing an excellent report.

Takagi growled as he started to write furiously about every last detail he could possibly think of. If it took him all night, he would work on this report until it was perfect.

This was his job anyway! And no, intense jealousy had nothing to do with the ridiculous amount of detail he would include.

Takagi paused for a second. He would also need to include a personal letter to Nakamori, offering his absolute assistance and support.

While not an officer specializing in theft, Takagi was certainly one for unforgivably grave crimes.

And this was most certainly unforgivable and very grave. While Wataru was grateful for the good things that had come out of it…He couldn't stop thinking about how Kid's lips had pressed against hers. Takagi ground his teeth together in furry as he wondered if kid had taken the time to massage the smooth, mosit surface of her mouth or if it had only been a quick peck on the lips. Takagi could only imagine from staring at her from time to time how warm and pliable they would feel, captured between his own. And dear God help him if he had tried anything with his tongue...

Kaito Kid, you will pay.

Ha ha ha, Taru-keiji is upset. And so this "what if" tangent is finished. This was just for fun, also for practice. I am not happy with my writing style as of right now. It's just not good enough. That is one of the reasons why I have not posted the first chapter of my ultimate Satou/Takagi tribute. I want it to be as awesome as possible, so until I am satisfied with my skills, I will release a bunch of one-shots or muti-shots like this one to practice. That, and I am working out all of the bugs. It is ridiculously hard to write a fanfiction that spans over the chronological length of Detective Conan. The seasons…do not add up. It's posing some plot problems.

Anyway, THANK YOU REVIEWERS! You are wonderful. Don't be afraid to criticize anything you think needs improvement! It would help me a lot, even if it will make me sad at first. Lol, I will get over it. Of course, please try to maintain a constructive atmosphere.

Also, Takagi/Satou is the best!!! I am actually in love with Takagi though. It's getting to the point now where it is kind of wrong. Alas, I cannot stop my love for him, he's so sexy *drools.

OH! And everyone! Go read A Policeman's Tale by Ytak! Makes my stuff look like garbageo! AH Ytak, if you read this: I AM SO SORRY! I have not reviewed, I know I suck! But damn, I love you just for writing this fic! Can't wait until the meeting in two days between Takagi and you-know-who! (I don't want to spoil). Update soon!

And to everyone else who has written a Satou/Takagi fic that I have not reviewed. It is because I am afraid of my review not being good enough. Trust me, I have read and loved it and will review at some point.

And thanks for encouraging me to finish this up Miaka. Your reviews always make my day!

Everyone! Write Satou/Takagi fics! OK!?
