Disclaimer: Detective Conan is not mine, and the characters in this does not belong to me! (A/N Second ficcy I've written. I know I write pretty bad stuff, so don't kill me for the badness of this ficcy. Also, this may be a shonen-ai ficcy....I haven't decided yet. Just warning you though)
Conan sat down, waiting for Ran to come back. Kogorou was drunk, again, for the second time in the day. He had no cases, for there was really nothing to do, and no killings in the newspaper that Kogorou always brought home. It was around four in the evening. She was at her karate class. Conan yawned, as he got up, and paced the floor. His stomache growled. 'Dammit,' He thought, 'what a great time to be hungry. Ran must of gotten out by now. She better get home soon'
As soon as he thought that, the phone rang. Conan had to go hunting to find it. Kogorou didn't wake up at all. It was under a bunch of old newspapers. "Hello, Mouri Detective Angency." Conan said, as it was a habbit. "Kudo!" Came Heiji's voice.
"Hattori, great." Conan muttered.
"Did you say something?" Heiji asked.
"Nope. Didn't say a thing." Conan said.
"Well, was wondering one thing. Do you think you guys are up to a trip to Osaka again(if you haven't read the manga..then shame shame)?" Heiji asked.
"Well, Ran isn't here and Kogorou is..drunk again. I'd have to ask Ran whenever she gets back." Conan said, as his stomach gave a loud growl.
Heiji laughed.
"Even I heard that." He said, trying to control himself.
"Well, Ran hasn't cooked anything since eight this morning, and we need to go shopping for some more food." Conan said.
"Gee, well, it so happens that I'm in town, and I have some food you can eat." Heiji said, yawning.
"I doubt it's a mere coincident. Where are you calling from anyway?" Conan asked.
"A phone booth. I got bored so I decided to come up here and visit you. Kazuha isn't here, she's visiting her aunt." Heiji answered Conan's unasked question.
"Really. So you've decided to bother me?" Conan asked.
Heiji laughed again.
"You are to much for me Kudo. That's why I like you." He laughed.
"Well, then come up here, I'm hungry. You do know how to cook, right?"
"Of course. I'm not that stupid you know. My mum taught me when I was around ten." "Well, hurry up and get here." Conan said, and hung up the phone.
Kogorou was still sleeping. Conan sighed, and went down to wait for Heiji. He could be unreliable sometimes, but he showed up at the right moment that you needed something. In Conan's case, it was food.
"Well Kudo, here I am." Came Heiji's voice.
"About time." Conan said, turning around.
Heiji was standing there, with a bag held up in his hand.
"Carry this in for me? My arm's killing me." He said, handing the bag to Conan.
"What did you bring? Looks like half the store down the block." Conan said, struggling to carry the bag.
"I keep forgetting that you've shrunken." Heiji said, taking the bag back, "I got this from the store down the street."
"Funny, very funny." Conan muttered.
Heiji shrugged, and they walked back up to the top of the house. Conan went through the bag, while they listened to Kogorou snore. "He really needs to get another job you know." Heiji commented.
"Like he would ever do that." Conan said, as he took out rice.
"Yeah, I see your point. Well, let's go see how you can make rice. You can make some, right?" Heiji asked, as he and Conan walked into the kitchen.
"I think so." Conan said.
Conan went under the sink to find some pots. Heiji was sitting on top of the kitchen counter. It was about four thirty. Ran still wasn't back.
"Hey Kudo. Where do you think your girlfriend is?" Heiji asked.
"She's not my girlfriend. And she might be staying late. She's done this before you know." Conan's muffled voice came.
"Right." Heiji said, not convinced.
"What about your girlfriend huh? Why didn't she take you with her?" Conan asked as he got a pot.
"She isn't my girlfriend!" Heiji said, flushing a bit.
"Now you know what it feels like." Conan said, as he filled the pot up with water.
Heiji shrugged. Conan put the pot filled with water on the stove and turned it on. "Do you have anything to do until the rice is done?" Heiji asked.
"We have cards somewhere. You want to play go fish or something?" Conan asked.
"If it'll pass the time." Heiji said.
"Yeah I'm sure it will. Um..where did Ran put the deck of cards..." Conan asked, going through some lower cabinets.
"Here you go." Said Ran, handing him the cards.
"Thanks Ran...Ran?" Conan exclaimed.
"Hello Hattori-kun. Why're you here?" Ran asked, as she sat down to play cards.
"Just on a visit." Heiji replied.
"More like his friend left him for a week or so." Conan said.
Heiji shot a warning glance towards Conan. Conan smiled back. "So, what are we playing?" Ran asked, totaly oblivious of anything that was going on.
"How 'bout go fish?" Conan asked, knowing it was risky to ask to play something else.
"Or old maid." Heiji said.
"Go fish." Conan said.
"Old maid." Heiji replied.
"Okay, let's play go fish first, then old maid." Ran said, making a decision.
They played for about ten minutes, until the rice was done.
"Who brought rice?" Ran asked.
"Hattori did. He called about half an hour ago or something like that." Conan said.
Ran shrugged, and got bowls down. "Kudo," Heiji whispered, "you don't believe that she was late do you?"
"She was probably with Sonoko or something like that. She did have a few bags with her. She could of went shopping." Conan replied, "Neechan! What's in the bags?"
"Just some stuff for tonight." Ran replied absentmindedly.
Conan and Heiji looked at each other. "Tonight? What's tonight?" Conan asked.
"Huh? Oh, don't worry about that Conan-kun." Ran said.
They ate in silence for about ten minutes before Heiji said anything.
"You've been with Kazuha haven't you?" Ran looked up.
"Huh? N-no. I was with Sonoko." "Oh, okay then." Heiji replied and continued to eat.
Ran looked around at Conan, who was staring at her. She smiled. Conan noticed that she stuttered. So she was lying. 'Best not to tell Hattori..but he probably already knows.' He thought.
Heiji sighed, as he pushed his bowl back. "I think I'm gonna go for a walk." He said, glancing at Conan.
"Could I come? I like to see the snow fall(forgot to tell you, it's snowing outside .)." Conan asked.
"Sure, why not?" Heiji said, as he went to get his shoes.
"Better bundle up Conan-kun, it's going to be cold outside." Ran said, getting Conan's coat.
"Thanks Neechan." Conan said.
Heiji was by the door, with his shoes on. Conan put his on. They left Ran standing there, shaking her head at Kogorou.
"Thanks for coming Kudo." Heiji said.
"Welcome." Conan replied.
It had started to snow less than fifteen minutes ago, and now it was like half a blizzard.
"You know she's lying, don't you." Heiji said after a few minutes.
"Yeah." Conan said. "I wonder what they're planning." Heiji wondered. "Is it your birthday or something?" Conan asked.
"No. I can't think of anything." "You sure?"
"Yeah.."
They stopped at the park. "You know we shouldn't stop here." Conan said, as they sat on the swings, "We're going to get a cold."
"So?" Heiji asked, as he swung.
"You're weird." Conan said as he blew on his fingers.
"Cold?" Heiji asked.
"A bit. Unlike you, I have a small body you know." "Yeah, keep forgetting about that."
There was a small pause, then a scream went through the air.
