Chapter 13: Snow
"Darn that Shinichi. How could he just leave me behind? Thank God, Sonoko was there," muttered Ran as she walks back home. She gave a sigh as she began to feel how she and Shinichi seem to be drifting apart ever since he came back and Shiho appeared. That thought suddenly struck her. 'Could Shinichi be falling for Shiho? Nah, can't be' thought Ran trying to reassure herself when she felt tears welling up in her eyes.
Could it?
*Cell phone ringing*
"Hello?"
"Has the subject been sighted?"
The figure grinned menacingly.
"But of course. She seems to be getting quite close to the detective guy"
"Hmm. You know what you have to do, do you?"
"Yes, I know, Gin"
"Good"
"I've got to hang up now. Gotta get ready for school tomorrow"
"School?"
"Ah, yes. Haven't I told you? I'm a transfer student" said the figure calmly
"What the heck are you doing? You're suppose to do your job, not go to school!"
"Oh,no," said the figure smirking, "You see, I have to go to school to get as close to her as possible. When the time is right, I will," he pauses for a second, then grinned evilly, "Exterminate her"

Shiho woke and sat up. She yawned and stretched her hands above her head. Then suddenly last nights incident came flashing back into her mind. She turned to look at Shinichi who was sleeping on the armchair.
'He looks so defenseless when he sleeps' thought Shiho smiling to herself. Since she had nothing to do, she just sat there and observed Shinichi. She felt herself blush when the first thought that came into her mind was 'he's very good-looking'. Shinichi woke up with a yawn. He looked around sleepily trying to figure out where he was. When he saw Shiho, he gave her a sleepy smile and said
"We better get ready for school. We'll be walking today. The professor wants to modify my bike a bit"
Shiho smiled, nodded then headed to the bathroom to take a shower. Shinichi yawned again and headed to his room.
*School*
"Got your jacket with you?" asked Shinichi.
"Why?" asked Shiho.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's going to start snowing on the way back to school. Don't you feel cold?" asked Shinichi.
"Come to think of it, yes, I do"
"Well, we're gonna walk home so if you didn't bring your jacket, then well," shrugged Shinichi.
"Yeah I did bring my jacket"
"Good," said Shinichi as the teacher entered the classroom.
*After school*
"So.. You wanna tell me about you're dream last night?" asked Shinichi hesitantly. He and Shiho were on the way back home. Shiho was silent for awhile, walking a little bit ahead of Shinichi.
"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to," said Shinichi quickly.
"No, that's okay. You see, I sometimes dream about my sister leaving me. Last night was one of those nights. It was horrible," said Shiho recalling the dream. Tears were forming in her eyes. To her surprise, she felt a pair of strong arms from behind her that wrapped around her and hugged her.
"You shouldn't cry," whispered Shinichi into her ear as he hugged her closer to him.
Shiho didn't know what to do. So she just leaned back her head against his chest and relaxed. She felt something on her face. It was snowing lightly. Shinichi turned Shiho around to see her face. With snowflakes in her hair, she looked like an angel.
"You look beautiful," said Shinichi softly, as he stroked her cheek lightly with his fingertips. Slowly he moved down to her chin and gently tilted her face up so that he can look at her properly. His gaze fell to her lips.
"May I?" he asked tentatively.
Shiho couldn't say anything. So he lowered his lips towards hers. Shiho closed her eyes. Their lips were almost touching when suddenly,
"Hey. Wait up," came a voice not very far behind them. They both jolted out of their state and immediately turned around to see who the caller was.
'What was I doing!' thought Shinichi furiously.
'What was I doing?' thought Shiho, blushing.
"Excuse me" a boy their age spoke. "You may not know me but I'm Scott. Scott Anderson. The new transfer student," he said.
"I'm not gonna beat around the bush so I'm going to ask this straightforwardly as I don't have time. Can you please help me in my Chemistry homework?" he asked Shiho.
"Huh?"
"I know you're really good in Chemistry and I have a bit of trouble with my homework, so can we like, get together some where and help me with my homework?"
"Oh..uh.." Shiho glanced at Shinichi who shrugged. "Okay"
"Really? That's great! See you at the ice-cream shop at 2pm tomorrow!" said Scott and ran off.
"You don't even know him," complained Shinichi.
"What was I suppose to say? I can't say know"
"Whatever," said Shinichi grumpily.
Shiho just shook her head and continued home with Shinichi tailing behind her. Without realizing it, a figure was watching their retreating backs.
"See you at the ice-cream shop, Sherry," chuckled the figure evilly.
