Scenario #1: The Chase… guy runs after girl in order to gain a chance with her.

One Last Attempt

Shinichi/Ran

It was just his damn luck that something happened. More specifically, a murder at the train station. Before he knew it, Megure-keibu was there, asking for his help. After it was all over, it might have been too late. So he asked a favor from the inspector. He happily obliged with a knowing smile and drove him to the airport, picking up speed as he blared his sirens.

When Megure arrived at the terminal, he jumped out of the passenger's side and began in a full run, faintly hearing Megure's hollers of luck. At the moment, he wished he wasn't in that station where the murder took place. He looked at the time, causing his sprint to come to a complete stop. 14:30… her plane was supposed to have left ½ hour ago. He cursed and stomped his foot to the floor. He was too late…

"What are you doing here?" he heard. He looked up and came face to face with her. Her blue eyes were wide with shock, baffled as to why he was there at the airport.

"I…" he panted, trying to catch his breath. "Didn't your plane…?"

"It was delayed," she answered.

A large smile was on his face. "Good. Thank god," he said as he approached her, still panting from his run. "Because I can't let you get on that plane."

Her eyes narrowed slightly. "But I can't… I mean, I'm already here."

"No, wait…" he sucked in another breath. "I mean…" he inhaled, "do you know why I didn't leave for America with my parents?" When she didn't answer, he took that as his cue to continue. "It was because of you. You were here in Japan. I wanted to be with you. I still want to."

"Are you saying you want to go with me?"

He smiled. "As much as I do, I know I shouldn't. You have to focus on your law internship; I might distract you from that. But still," another deep breath, "that doesn't change the fact that I want to be with you."
A soft smile pulled her lips. "It's only for a semester. I'll come back right after that."

"I know, I know," he scratched the nape of his neck. "But as soon as you get back," in shaky motions, he dropped to one knee in front of her and presented an open burgundy velvet box, "I want to be beside you. Forever."

Breath caught in her throat as her wide blue eyes stared upon the object in his hands. Nestled tightly in the box sat a proud diamond set in a bright gold band. "You… you're…?"

"I meant to ask you at dinner last night but, well… I lost my nerve," he admitted sheepishly. "So? What do you say?"

She gingerly took the box in her hand, examining the ring in silence. Then, she closed the box with a snap, causing his smile to falter and disappear. She saw this and remedied the situation. With the box tight in her fist, she fell to her knees and kissed him on the lips. "Yes, you detective geek."

This could also count as "guy proposes to girl in public place." I just did a double whammy. Whoops. Unless I can write a drabble that takes place in a… more public spot (does that exist?), then that counts as well.
