FINALLY UPDATED :D SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG!
Kaito POV
"Um, what do I do?"
I stared through the Plexiglas that divided me from my first and only love, Miku.
"Kill them..." She said dreamily. Then a crazed look took over her eyes and she started screaming. "KILL THEM! KILL THEM ALL!" A tired looking attendant dragged her off into another room.
I sighed, leaving the asylum. What was I supposed to do?
What was a way to kill someone without a trace, no evidence, and no chance of failure?
I wandered into a supermarket and picked up a canister of bug spray. A tiny skull and crossbones sign called for my attention.
POISON: KEEP AWAY FROM EYES, NOSE, AND MOUTH. IF SWALLOWED, CONTACT: 345-XXX-XXXX
My mind raced at 1000 miles per hour.
Signs flashed in my mind of similar items I'd seen.
Poison, keep away from children.
Poison, if in contact with body, can be fatal.
Poison, caution is advised.
Poison...
Poison...
Poison...
"That's it." I said aloud. Poison! Short, sweet, to the point.
And no messes to clean up afterwards, either.
A smirk graced my face as I left the supermarket.
Now it was time to put my genius plan into action.
Len POV
Rin's legs thumped rhythmically against the wood of the deck as she hummed, eyes closed. From my spot on her lap, I could see the stars.
"Hey, Rin."
Her fingers threaded through my hair, and I sighed. It felt so good...
I poked her. She looked down at me happily, a look of content in her eyes.
But lurking in those beautiful blue pools was a hint of worry, fear, and weariness, all clashed into one.
So she didn't trust me when I said I'd protect her.
Or maybe it was because I'd never been able to do much about it.
When Miku and Kaito hurt her, I wasn't there.
I let Dell kidnap her, because I'd been careless.
I wasn't able to do much when the school teased her mercilessly for a week.
It was right for her not to trust me.
I smiled sadly back at her.
"You know, Len. I've been thinking."
"Mmmm?"
"Well... you know how Lola wants to take us to Hawaii...?"
"Yeah."
"Maybe I'll stay behind."
I sat up. "What?"
"Well, everywhere I go I cause trouble, and mostly to you two. I mean, you almost got a concussion and got stabbed because of me."
I gave her the sternest glare I could.
"You aren't staying behind."
She took on a frustrated look with her cheeks puffed out. It was quite adorable.
"I just don't wanna hurt you."
"Hey, Len honey?"
I turned to see Mom.
"Yeah Mom?"
"Someone's here to see you and Rin, hon."
It was 9:00 in the night. Who wanted to see us?
"Kay."
I sat up and helped Rin to her feet, briefly explaining why I'd gotten up.
We walked around to the front of the house.
"Hello, Rin, Len."
Kaito Shion was on our front porch.
Rin POV
I looked warily at Kaito Shion.
"What do you want, Kaito-san?"
He just looked at us.
"May I come in?"
"No-" began Len, but Lola interrupted.
"Of course, come in."
"I wanted to apologize for Miku's actions."
"Is she your sister or something?"
"No, no. Just a friend."
"May I have some water?" I asked Lola. She nodded.
"Actually, may I have some too?" asked Kaito.
"Me too." said Len.
Kaito held his glass in his lap and resumed talking.
"Miku was usually very sweet..."
Len and I snorted.
"But she just hasn't been right in the head."
I set my glass on the table.
"Oh really?"
I got up to get a paper towel, and Len watched me, his eyes flashing warning lights. I nodded, not trusting the blue-haired boy either.
"Kaito," I asked, picking up my glass. "What exactly did you come here for?" I paused to take a sip from my glass.
Len stood up, moving forward and knocking the glass out of my hand.
A dark snarl twisted his face as he glared at Kaito.
"You should follow your girlfriend into the asylum!"
"Len!" I stood. "What the heck are you...?"
Len reached into Kaito's bundled up scarf that was nestled in his lap and picked up a packet of powder.
"He tried to poison you."
