"Speech"

'Thought'

News to All

Two heads stuck out from the door way, looked dumbfounded down the empty stairs. They forced themselves back in, in a slightly mechanical motion.

"D..d..d.d.d.did she just say what I think she said?" Kogorou tilted his head at the little boy beside him.

Conan looked back and the two's faces met for a few seconds before they both let out a simultaneous, "Nah!" They took a step to opposite directions but came to an abrupt halt was followed a large sweatdrop that rolled down the back of their heads.

"I..I..I'm going to professor Agasa's house tonight ok?" Conan forced out a smile.

"I'm gonna go to a bar," Kogorou wheezed.

(At professor's House)

The professor was flipping through the newspaper when one particular article caught his attention. "Pfft, what's this world coming to," he sighed to himself.

Ding Dong

Raising an eyebrow through his papers, he glanced at the front door. Lazily, he pulled himself up and made his way to answer his call. "Huh," his eyes fell upon the young boy, "What brings you here Shinichi?"

"Just thought I'd drop by," Conan replied, trying to sound as normal as possible.

The professor took notice of the boy's uneasiness but never bothered to bring it up. "Oh, have you heard," he asked.

"Heard what?"

"They legalized gay marriage in Shizuoka…"

"WHAT!"

"I know, I thought it was pretty preposterous too."

'Could Ran be…is she…'

"I mean, if god intended for us to be homosexuals, he wouldn't have created the female kind." Huffed the old man.

"Ran might disagree with you," he whispered with a hesitant smile.

"Ran-kun? Why?"

"She's got a date tomorrow."

"Ouch…"

"I'm wondering what she's like."

"I'm sure that girl wo…WHAT!"

"You heard me right."

"It can't be. Ran-kun? I don't believe you!"

"She said it so herself."

"But she…she…"

"Hey, keep it down will you," a voice called irritatingly as Ai walked up the stairs, "I'm trying to do some work down there," she folded her arms with a glare.

The two closed their mouths and looked at one another.

"This is why never wanted a serious relationship. You men couldn't hold a silence at a funeral," she hissed.

'never wanted a relationship…' "Hey Haibara…"

"What do you want now"

"Are you…gay?"

The girl stood there blinking for a few seconds, not knowing how to reply to the idiotic question, "EXCUSE ME!" she coughed.

"Just, are you gay?"

"Just because I don't want a relationship, doesn't make me gay. Where did that come from!"

Conan turned to his old friend who looked away and turned back to Haibara.

(Few moments later)

"Well, I think Ran-san's sexuality is for her to decide. If she wants to be the way she is then I think you should support her about it," Ai said calmly.

"You can't be serious…" Conan shifted his glance at her, raising one eyebrow.

"What' are you looking at me like I got three eyes for? I'm just saying that, that's the right thing to do." Said Ai, still keeping her cool.

"Well, I can't. I've known her since kindergarten and she never told me she was gay. Besides I…" he cut off and blushed slightly.

Ai gave an amused smirk. "You love her and you want her right?" she finished him off.

Conan gave a wordless grumble. "Why don't you give her a call," Ai suggested, "Maybe you just heard wrong."

"Yea, maybe I did. I think I will call her," he smiled.

Ai walked down away raising one hand to signal a good bye behind her saying, "You're welcome," and returned to her lab.

(At Sonoko's house)

"You said you're what!" Sonoko jumped.

"That I'm gay," Ran replied blushing.

"But you're not…right?" Sonoko took a few steps back, "cause if you are, I don't know if staying over at my house would be such a good idea…"

"Sonoko! You know I'm not!" Ran persisted. "That bastard's always 'On a case'. It's just a harmless prank to get back at him."

"But you told your dad and Conan-kun,"

"Yea, and Conan-kun is…I mean…will tell Shinichi, trust me, he will most likely call here later tonight to confirm," Ran gave a giggle.

"You know," Sonoko slid her eyes down sheepishly, "You can be quite the vixen when you want to be."

"…Shut up…" Ran pouted.

"So…does anyone else know about this little prank you're trying to pull?"

"There is one but that's because I had to tell that person…"

(Somewhere in a bar)

Kogorou walked through the crowed looking from side to side. 'Something isn't right about this place…' he thought.

"Hey there Handsome," a voice came from his right.

'Yup, something definitely isn't right about this place…'

"What brings you here good looking." Another voice came from the left.

'I just can't put my hands on what it is…'

"Well aren't you a cute one," From the corner of his eyes, he could see a figure blowing kisses to him.

A sudden jolt of realization shot through him. "WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING IN A GAY BAR!" he screamed and turned around, then dashed to the door, pushing aside two men in the process.

"What's his problem?" one of the men hissed.

'I must have gotten too caught up about Ran that I went to the gay bar across the street from my usual one,' he said to himself in his mind. He quivered as he walked out the door.

"Anata!" a surprised voice came from the side.

Kogorou's eyes widened as he turned to his side in shock, "E..E..Eri!" he gasped.

"What were you…" she looked up at the store name, "A gay bar!"

"No..no..it's not what you think!" Kogorou held his hands out and shook them in denial.

Realizing the situation Eri revealed a smirk at the perfect opportunity for a put down, "The girls found you disgusting so now you turned to the guys huh," she chuckled.

"N..NO! It's not like that!" Kogorou shook his head furiously.

"Then explain to me why you were in that place!" Eri's smirk got wider as she leaned her face up against his with her hands to her waist.

"I..I..I..I accidentally walked in to the wrong bar!" he explained.

"Tisk tisk tisk, you'll have to do better than that," Eri waved a winger at her lips.

"I did, it's the truth! I was too caught up about Ran being…" he put his hand over his mouth in a hurry.

"Huh, Ran being…"

With a sigh, Kogorou continued, "I think Ran's…a homosexual."

"Oh that? You mean to tell me that you live with her all this time and you didn't know about it?" she chuckled.

"W..w..what!" Kogorou's eyes widened and his face turned pale as though he was getting a heart attack.

(Back at Sonoko's home)

"Well, if I didn't tell mom then I'm sure she would have hunted me down to the end of the earth to talk to me," Ran explained.

"I'm surprised that she let you go through with this," Sonoko blinked with disbelief.

"Hey, just cause my mom's strict, doesn't means that she's completely boring you know." Ran pouted.

(In Reality)

"Mom, I want to pull a prank on Shinichi, could you help me out with it?" Ran pleaded.

"What are you planning?" Eri looked up from her computer.

"I want to make him think I'm gay," she spoke nervously.

"You WHAT!" Eri flipped her head up.

"So can you?" Ran asked again.

"You're 17years old, act your age. Did living with that drunken idiot rot your mind too?" Eri said raising an eyebrow.

"What, that mystery freak's been gone for so long and he never comes to see me." She lowered her voice to a whisper, "and never tells me the truth…"

"Huh?"

"I mean, always caught up in his cases. I want to get back at him," Ran said.

"So you found out?" Eri asked.

"Eh?"

"About Conan-kun,"

"Then you know that his really?"

"For some time now."

"But how…"

"I'm not stupid you know. His actions, his movements, his style of speech. I've yelled at you two more than enough times to know what his like." Eri chuckled.

"Then will you help?" Ran asked.

"What's in it for me?" Eri asked.

"Uhh…my undying gratitude?"

"Hmf, what ever, do what you like. Just don't go too far," Eri glared.

"Okaasan!" Ran jumped back.

(Flahs back end)

"Well, you coming in," Sonoko called behind her.

"Yea," Ran replied.

"For doing this, you will of course by me lunch for 1 whole month after and tell me every single detail of what happens right?" Sonoko laughed.

"Oh don't worry, you won't miss a thing," Ran gave her a wink.

'Uh oh…' Sonoko thought in her mind.

End…
