Prologue
By Crystal
Author's Notes: This is just like one of my Rurouni Kenshin fics, if I'm not inspired, I won't be writing it, but the second I'm inspired, I'm writing ^^ Thanks. But it might take a while even though I'm inspired, because, well, I have 7 fics, 8 including this one going on. So yeah ^^
*Screw the disclaimers ^^;;*
The antidote for APTX4869 was finally taken by Shinichi and Ai after all the people of the Black Organization was either captured or ran away. Their base was destroyed as well as all there stuff, so nothing was left. Unfortunately, Gin was not captured and therefore, Ai didn't use her old name, nor her elementary school name. She was now called Shizuma Mika. Shinichi kept his old name since he was going back to Ran.
The two of them were now lying on the lawn of Shinichi's house, looking up at the stars shining. It was crazy to do so at this time of the year since it was November and it was going to snow soon.
"So Ai... Where are you going? After all this, I mean." Shinichi asked, not taking his eyes off the stars.
She smiled softly, her bangs covering her eyes from Shinichi's view. She was blinking them rapidly, hoping that the tears wouldn't roll out of her eyes, holding them prisoners in her eyes. She didn't want to cry, she didn't want Shinichi to ask questions, because if he did, she would not know how to answer them. "I... I don't really know. But I think I'll leave Japan and maybe go to America..."
"Really? How come?" He asked, completely unaware of her tears.
For a high school detective, he was pretty dumb, she mused to herself. "Just want to get away. From all this. The memories, the past. I want them all buried. Not that it's possible, but if I get away from this place, then maybe... Maybe I'll have a bigger chance of forgetting this."
"Even me?" Shinichi asked again, it was a completely innocent question, at least that's what Shinichi thought. But to Ai, it was a bit much. Nobody knew just how much she loved him. She loved him from head to toe, of course, nobody knew. And she wasn't going to tell anyone either. This was better kept to herself because, well, he had Ran and she didn't want to spoil it for them.
She loved the way he thinks while trying to solve a case, she loved the way he kicked a soccer ball... She loved the way he talked to criminals. Definitely cool and handsome too. "I'll have a hard time forgetting you, Kudo."
He laughed, "Yeah, well, I'll have a hard time forgetting you too. I mean, how many people do you fight with against a whole organization every lifetime?"
A sad smile danced on her lips, "This is my last night in Japan... I'm probably going to go to the airport and take any plane that leaves here tomorrow." She paused when Shinichi didn't say anything, "Kudo... Ever tried loving someone, and them never knowing? In your opinion, would it be better if you think they don't love you or if you know they don't love you?"
"Why the sudden question?" He asked.
"Just answer it."
He sighed, "Well, perhaps it'd be better if you know they don't love you. That way, you wouldn't wait for the answer."
"But would you wait for the person if you knew they didn't love you? But you loved her more than anything in the whole world? You would love her enough to risk your own life for hers... Would you wait forever, or would you move on?" She asked, curiously. She knew, of course, that the girl Shinichi was thinking of was never going to be her. But a girl could dream, couldn't they?
"I wouldn't know..."
"Take Ran as an example. If she loved someone. And I do mean if. Would you wait for her? Or would you find someone else?"
He took a breath of fresh air, "I would wait."
"Thanks." Ai replied.
"Why?"
Ai sighed and hesitantly replied, "Because, you think the same way as I do. I was thinking if I was the only one foolish enough to wait for someone for their whole life, but I guess everyone's that foolish. Does make me a whole lot better..."
"You have someone you like?"
"No," she answered, "I have someone I love."
Author's Notes: That's the prologue, if you like it, review, if you don't... Well, then review. No flames. Comments and ideas are welcome. I'm making this an Ai/Shinichi or Ran/Shinichi. I'm probably going to make it Ai/Shinichi, but if you have any say, tell me. Later!
