Mikau: Hello again! It's-a me! Mikau! I'm feeling goofy today for some reason.

But before we go, a special thanks to the reviewers from last time: IbeWildBella, The Midnight Dream, oreioreo, Hebiaczek, Lady Rosencrantz, Icyicy00, mochiusagi, and Guest! Goodness!

Stelraetnae: Kaito meets the Kudou parents. Shinichi/Conan can but need not be included, and is very welcome as long as more focus stays on Yuusaku and Yukiko. Any genre goes, so from family fluff to suspense to hurt/comfort, whatever floats your muse. Be as creative as you like!
"Shin-chan! We're home!" couldn't have come at a worse time because it came just when Shinichi was about to.
"Shit," Shinichi hissed into Kaito's collarbone, scrambling off and frantically searching for his clothes. "ONE MINUTE!" he shouted to his family as he tried to put on his pants…backwards.
Correcting the issue, he turned back to a very annoyed, unsatisfied Kaito who was still sprawled across the study's couch. "Sorry. Stay here. I'll…I'll…think of something."
"Oh! Are you in the study?" Yukiko called out in delight. "We'll be right there!"
"Just a minute!" Shinichi screeched, wondering what he had done to piss the fates off so much. Hadn't he solved enough murders to atone for whatever he had done in a previous life? Had he been freaking Hitler or something?
With a sigh, Kaito got up and pulled on his own pants, reaching down to scoop a shirt off the floor. He tossed it to Shinichi. "That one is yours. You're gonna look silly in my 'I dance for chocolate' graphic tee."
Shinichi took a minute to appreciate how sexy Kaito looked when he was shirtless and pissed off.
"So," Kaito sighed again as he straightened his clothes. "I guess I'm meeting your parents?"
Shinichi's eyes widened in fear, and his skin went as pale as paste as he thought with dread of the meeting about to take place. "Hell no!" he shrieked. "Go hide or escape out the window or something!"
"Shin-chan!" Yukiko called out as she drew nearer and nearer. She was out in the hall now. She'd be turning the corner and coming in at any minute.
"Hold on!" Shinichi yelled.
"What am I, a secret?" Kaito snorted.
"No," Shinichi tried to explain, but he was running out of time. "Just go! We'll talk later," he hissed in a stage whisper as he dashed out into the hall to head his parents off.
"Mom! Dad! Welcome home! How are you doing?" Shinichi tried to act normal, pretend that he hadn't just been in the throes of passion with his boyfriend minutes before.
Yukiko bounced to an abrupt stop in front of her son, and her curls sprang with an almost audible boing as she did so. Her joyous expression changed to shock and concern when she noted her son's appearance.
"Shin-chan! Are you sick, Honey?" She immediately launched forward, feeling his face, checking his pulse, touching her own forehead to his to check for fever. "Your complexion is all splotchy, and you're drenched in a cold sweat! Yuusaku, look. Doesn't he look feverish?!"
Shinichi's face turned an even deeper shade of cinnabar as his father got called in for a second opinion.
"I'm fine," he tried to assure them, but Yukiko would not relent until she was positive that her baby was safely pulled from death's door.
Yukiko was just suggesting that they head for the hospital when Kaito stepped out of the study, coming up behind Shinichi and wrapping his arms around his boyfriend.
"Hi. Sorry to interrupt your reunion, but Shinichi's just fine. He's still a little hot and bothered since you guys came home before we could get finished up, but other than that he's a strong, healthy, teenage male."
Yukiko stared at Kaito in confusion as she struggled to link his words together so as to derive meaning. Yuusaku, on the other hand, understood all too well what Kaito was saying and was thus red-faced in horror.
Shinichi, like his father, was turning a lovely shade of scarlet. He prayed to any higher power listening to strike him dead on the spot so that he wouldn't have to explain to his parents that he'd discovered what that thing in his pants was for and that he liked using it with other men.
Kaito, meanwhile, kept talking amicably (probably as some sick form of revenge for being robbed of his cuddle time). "I'm Kuroba Kaito, by the way. I'm your future son-in-law. I'd shake your hand, but mine are kinda…sticky right now."
Shinichi wanted to die. He didn't care how. He just wanted to be dead so that he didn't have to endure any more embarrassment.
And then, while everyone else was stunned into silence, Kaito kept going, addressing Yukiko. "And just so you know, Yukiko-oneechan, I'm a big fan of that Taiga drama you were in. You were super inspiring, and your death scene—Gosh!—it brought me to tears!" he gushed. "And now that I've seen you in person, I can understand why Shin-chan didn't want us to meet. You're so pretty, he was probably afraid I would fall for you. You seriously look more like his big sister than his mother."
Next Kaito turned to Yuusaku and grinned. "And it's an honor to meet you, Sir. I've always thought the Night Baron series was pretty good, but that new spy series you're doing now is seriously awesome! I can't wait until book number three comes out! You're a seriously talented writer, Sir."
All of the flattery seemed to break the ice. Yukiko slapped on a bright grin and greeted her son's boyfriend. "Well, hello there, Kaito-kun! Aren't you just the sweetest thing? Shinichi didn't tell us that he had such a handsome, agreeable boyfriend with good taste in entertainment!"
"You wouldn't happen to be Kuroba Touichi's son, would you?" Yuusaku finally spoke up, trying to keep an open mind for his son's sake.
"Of course he is," his wife cut in. "He's as pretty as Chi-chan, and he's got Sensei's silver tongue. Of course he's Sensei's son." Yukiko turned back to Kaito and smiled. "You may not remember, but I was a student of your father's, so we met when you were little. I'm pleased to see you've turned into a fine young man."
Yuusaku came in again, "Your father, Kaito-kun, was actually a very dear friend of ours, so we're glad to welcome you to the family."
"Mmhmm," Yukiko agreed. "And we're really sorry for interrupting you two earlier. We know how awful that can be. Now, why don't you two go upstairs and take a nice, long shower together? We'll get to know each other better over lunch once you two are finished."
Completely mortified and willing to take any escape route that he could get, Shinichi meeped out a quick "Thanks" to his parents as he practically dragged Kaito off.
And that left Yukiko and Yuusaku, standing in the hall trying to process.
"Kaito-kun seems nice." Yuusaku was the first to speak.
"Yeah," Yukiko remarked half-heartedly.
"You don't think so?" Her husband softly rested a hand on her shoulder.
She frowned. "It's not that. He is. He is nice, but…I'm just a little…Do you think something happened with Ran-chan while we were away? We've been gone for almost a year, and we don't really check in with him much. What if something really bad happened between them, and we weren't here for Shin-chan, so now he's gone off the deep end of grief and has started dating other men because he feels he can never love another woman again?!"
Yuusaku smiled indulgently at his wife, rubbing her arm comfortingly. "Honey, judging by the body language going on between those two, I don't think we have to worry about Shinichi throwing himself into another relationship as a rebound. He really does seem to be crazy about Kaito-kun."
"You're sure?" Yukiko's eyes narrowed and her lips pursed as her eyebrows pinched together in suspicion.
Yuusaku smiled fondly. "Oh yes. Definitely crazy about one another. Shinichi's okay regardless of whatever happened to break him away from Ran-san."
Yukiko bit her lip and thought about it for a minute. She let out a long, slow breath and nodded. "Okay. If you're sure about this." And then a chipper grin came to her face. "And Kaito-kun does seem like such a nice person! Did you hear what he said about my work? How pretty I was? I love a good suck-up!"
"Yes, you do," Yuusaku sighed, afraid that their new son-in-law would absolutely spoil his wife. "And goodness knows that you need your ego stroked."
"Yep!" Yukiko giggled as she gleefully made her way to the kitchen. "Once an hour at minimum!"
"Then Kaito-kun will serve you rather well." Yuusaku shook his head and followed.
Truthfully, he liked Kaito too. He reminded Yuusaku of Yukiko with his exuberance and personality. He was of the opinion that people like that made the best life partners, and he hoped that his son would come to believe the same.

Mikau: So I doubt Stelraetnae ever saw this coming when she sent in her prompt. I'm sorry. Like, really sorry. Unless you like KaiShin. If that's the case…um…Happy Birthday! Enjoy! But anyway, I hope you guys had fun with this hot mess of I don't know what happened. ^.^; The next one will be a Magic Kaito character Christmas gift exchange featuring Aoko, Akako, Keiko, Hakuba, and Kaito.
