I own no one and nothing

"Tea?" the younger man offered. He was almost surprised by the sound of his own voice. It had been a long time since he had spoken as Kaito Kuroba. However, this was the one person he had never had to hide from.
Jii smiled and reached out to take the cup. "Thank you young master."
Kaito rolled his eyes but did not otherwise protest. In his mind, Jii was his partner, not his servant. He knew trying to convince the older man of that was a futile effort though. They had had that conversation many times before.
The afternoon passed in pleasant conversation. It wasn't often they had the chance to talk like this, that only made the time more valuable to the retired kaitou. Jii brought more than just the pleasure of his company too. He also brought letters from his Mother. It was not as though she could mail them. That was another thing to look forward to.
A sigh emerged from Jii's throat as he observed Toichi's son. To another, Kaito would have seemed perfectly happy. The older man knew he wasn't. "I do wish you would let me stay." It wasn't good for the younger man to be so isolated.
Blue eyes narrowed, the colored contacts set aside for the moment. "No!" the single word was stated sharply. They had been lucky that neither the Black Organization nor the police had ever discovered the identity of Kid's accomplice. The only one who had was Nightmare, and he was dead.
It wasn't that Kaito would not enjoy the company, but Jii was getting old. He had already given up so much to help him. The magician wouldn't let him sacrifice what he had left. There was no reason for the other to live a life on the run.
Jii did not look pleased, but he didn't press the point. The young master had made his wishes perfectly clear. Of course, that wouldn't stop him from keeping his eye on Kaito. If he didn't, who would?
