Beginning of a Plot

He was an obese man with stuck out chin, how many ever there was. His waist out grew his giant rump that bumped disgustingly in the air each time he stumbled a step. His thick eyebrows and white mustache sat glumly on his face, now deprived of its youth.

Alright, maybe I was too harsh. Let me rephrase that. He was a well-rounded man with strong bulky chins. His plus sized waist circled around his rich rump that elegantly bounced in rhysmic patterns as he took his graceful strides. The proud stature of his brow matched his fully mustache that decorated his face, still only 52years young. And today, will be his first date.

Ai tagged behind with a silent smirk upon her face as she gazed forward to the two slouching figure as they got dragged down the road by the excited teens. She never said much the entire morning, except for commenting with smart remarks upon Kudou's questions.

It was just after 10:00 that they reached their first store. The Day clothing store was the name. The isles after isles of clothing brought joy upon the girl's minds and horror up-on the guy's. 'This is going to be a looooonnng day,' Conan gave a sigh.

2 hours later

17 tuxedos and 14 pants down, 10923 more to go. The professor was ready to settle for the first thing they give a remote sign that they liked the suit. If we know the female mind, that's never going to happen in a shopping store. He forced out a smile every time he heard Sonoko's "How about this one…or this! Oh you must try this!"

"You know what, I think I like those pants. They suit you not bad," Sonoko said rubbing his chin.

"Excellent, I'll take it!" the professor jumped in.

"but…are you sure…" Sonoko said taking a walk around the old man as she scratched her head.

"I'm positive! Now lets go home," the old chemist motioned to the door.

"Hold it, we still need to get you a matching tux," Sonoko grabbed his collar.

"uh…right…How about that one?" he said pointing to a random suit.

"That's horrible, you don't wear night black with shadow black, they just don't fit," Sonoko shook her head.

'They're both black, frankly I can't tell the difference,' the professor dropped his shoulders and head.

"Since we found some pants for the professor, lets go find something for the squirt," Sonoko suggested.

"That's a good idea, he needs something more than that one nerdy suit to go around everyday," Ran agreed cheerfully.

'Sorry that it's nerdy,' Conan pouted.

Few Moments Later

"Oooo! That's so cute!" Sonoko squealed as she tugged over a piece of clothing.

"No thanks," Conan replied plainly, without even looking.

Sonoko twitched her eyebrow and went to search for another.

"He Sonoko, take a look at this," Ran called out, snickering under her hand as it covered her mouth.

"Is that…" Sonoko's eyes widened.

"I think it is," she snickered again.

"Ohhh Conan-kun…could you come here please?" Sonoko called sheepishly.

"What is it now," Conan dragged himself over. Ai followed closely behind.

"Tadah!" the two girls pulled over another article of clothing.

Blue vest, white shirt, blue shorts, and with a hat that was also blue in a shape of something like a France artist would wear. Conan shuddered at the site.

"Try this on," Sonoko forced the shirt to his face.

"NO WAY!" Conan shook his head vigorously.

"Common, we won't buy it, we just want to see you wear it," Ran giggled from behind.

"I'm not going to wear that! That's….horrifying…' Conan twisted his body to show his back with his hands folded in front of his chest.

"If you won't wear it, I won't cook you supper for the next week," Ran said with an evil smile.

"That's okay, I'll go eat outside," Conan replied.

"Fine, I'll take you to mom's place to taste her delicious home cooking. I hear she's been working on her beef stew lately and been wanting us to go over to have a taste," Ran glanced down at the tiny boy who started to quiver, 'Checkmate!'

"I hope the vest isn't too tight," Conan turned around with a forced smile upon his face.

Ran handed the articles over with a nod. "You know, you can be pretty evil when the time comes," Sonoko whispered over.

Few moments later

"Oh! MY! GOD! The only thing that's missing now is a giant lollypop!" Sonoko jumped up and down excitedly.

The professor held his breath to keep himself from laughing while Ai tried to avoid vision of the…interesting scene.

Conan blushed with rage as he stood in the spot light, cursing the teenage girl with his glare. 'I won't forget this,' Conan said to himself.

Conan's eyes widened with surprise of the sudden click of a shutter. "Was that the sound of a camera I just heard?" Conan looked around.

"My phone camera, never leave home without it," Sonoko giggled, "With this, I can black mail you all I want!"

"Sonoko!" Ran slapped her lightly on the back of her head.

"I'm just joking, I took it cause I'm sure, someday when we look back to this, we're all going to have a riot," she smiled with a wink before bursting out with laughter once more.

"Right then…ehem…I think we should go for lunch. It's almost 12:30 and I'm sure K…Conan-kun there would love to have a lollypop," Ai said, swallowing the urge to go further.

Conan lowered his brows and glimpsed at her with half his eyelids down.

Few Minutes Later

The two girls and the professor were talking away about his date later on while Ai and Conan sat together on a separate table. Ran gave occasional glances at the two and giggled to herself.

"Kudou-kun, I think you looked a lot more likable in that outfit," Ai glanced over at the boy as he raised his hand to bite into his sandwich.

"Shut up, let's not bring that up again," Conan shot her a sign of annoyance before sinking his teeth upon his prey.

"Why, it's a fun topic," Ai pushed on.

"You're looking for a fat lip!" Conan glared.

"Keep your fat lip, it goes so well with your big mouth," Ai chuckled. She watched with great satisfaction as Conan sucked his head down to his shoulders as though he had just been hit with a sledgehammer.

"Kudou-kun," she continued, "I'd say you're getting more and more use to being a child everyday. If I gave you the antidote right now and you were to return to your original form, do you really believe that things will return to normal?" she asked, changing her face to a more serious look.

"I don't see the problem," Conan replied, looking up into the skies.

Silence.

"You're so simple minded," Ai finished off.

"Well excuuuse meee," Conan stuck his neck out.

She leaned back and admired the scenery of the park. Conan watched her, wondering what she was thinking about. "It's a beautiful day isn't it," he said peacefully, changing the topic.

"It's spring," she said, "Spring, a season of birth. The sky regains its open blues, the flower bloom in welcome of the golden sun and the birds sing their chorus cheerfully at the warm wind that blows. Ahh yes, spring is here…" she paused. Conan gave a smile to her. "BIG FAT HAIRY DEAL!" she finished off.

Conan neared dropped to his face but held his spot on the bench.

"Everyone's happy, everyone except me," she looked down, then shooting her head up, she gave a mocking look to the detective, "It's a game Kudou-kun," she said with a chuckle, "I think of ways for you to be miserable, and you…try to think of a way for me to be miserable. That is what arguing is all about. Unfortunately for you, I'm already miserable and you can't do anything to sink me even further,"

"I be you never had too many friends like that, have you?" Conan sighed.

"More than the 3 kids that you got," she met him with her words.

"So, what are you two talking about?" Ran walked over with a bright smile upon her face.

"Having a little competition," Ai answered with a grin.

"heh, heh," Conan faked a laughter and walked back to where the professor and Sonoko was to get another can of pop.

"Ai-chan," Ran sat down next to her.

"Yes?" she turned her head to face her.

'Wow, she's really formal,' "Uh… I mean… Conan-kun is a good kid, just give him a chance," Ran coughed and cleared her throat.

"What?" Ai shot her a questioning look.

"His a good kid, I'm sure you two have a lot in common," she said, giving her a gentle smile.

"What are you two talking about?" Conan said, opening the can of pop in his hands as walked back.

"Oh, nothing," Ran replied. "Remember, " she whispered to Ai before running back to her original seat.

'So they think Kudou-kun is in love with me…This may turn out quite interesting,' she thought to herself.

End…

I know Ai is a bit OOC in this story the moment she decided to toy with Kudou so much but hey, as long as it's funny (I hope it is) then I'm fine with it. Sorry about lack of humor in this chapter but I needed something to link it to my future ideas. I hope you all still liked it thought!

Crystal Snowflake: The suffering has only just begun. I'm thinking of giving this story a new title cause profs first date is merely what I used to connect the happenings of things. Thank you very much for all your support

Fanfic Maniac: The best chapter, wow, and I didn't have too much confidence in that one. This one lacked a bit in humor but more to come in future. I hope I can write more chapters that you will like just as much as the last one.

Great Detective: Are there more than one person that's using your account? Cause I've received a review from you on Ch3 and now its like you haven't even read ch2 yet. Anyways, I hope you liked these later chapters too

Kisara Koi: To tell truth, I'm still thinking on what his date should look like. Don't worry, I'll make sure its either going to be ironic or humorous.

Meitantei Mystery: Why thank you, I love Kogorou's stupid characteristics.

Adilla: There was a little bit more Conan-Ai in this one just for you, lol. I wasn't really going to put all that but, it worked out fine.

Michelle Therese: OMG thank you so much! I love your reviews and didn't actually think that you would give me one even if I asked you to. I hope I can get more of your reviews in the future. Thanks again!
