"Have you ever been through this time, this point in your life where you lose it all, let it slip right through your fingers because of one stupid choice, one stupid mistake? Kami, but then have you ever had...one more chance to just make it all right again?"
Counting the days, marking the months, waiting out the hours, wishing for a chance to make things normal again. This obviously wasn't cutting out what the shrunken sized Kudou Shinichi was expecting ever since the day that changed his life when he planned a day out with his childhood friend, a day that he would finally muster up the all the bodily courage he had tucked away somewhere in his mind, in him to tell the feelings that he had been feeling, that had been screaming and nagging him for his childhood friend since he was an adolescent. Guess that didn't work out to well when he had decided to follow those Detective instincts he had been feeling, to play the role of the hero, to bring down the mysterious gun smugglers that had crushed his pride, his hopes into tiny pieces sending him into the form of a child all over again, a child that should never meddle into one's adult business.
" Yeah, Yeah I know, Cases! Cases! Cases! Your always tied up in your cases ,too busy dealing with them to come home, I understand Shincihi..."
" Ran..."
The shrunken Shinichi that sat in the silenced darkness of the Mouri residence just existing in his own pain and guilt, grabbed his head and clung to it tightly as he clenched down hard on his teeth, tying to calm himself not to break down in the frustration that was slowly becoming stronger, more angry, more combustible, ready to unleash on anyone, any moment, any second.
" I need out..."
Conan lifted himself off the couch and slipped on his shoes and coat and double looked down the hall making sure nobody was hearing his movements and slipped out of the door way, feeling a little bit more relaxed when he felt the cool air whip against his face as he trotted his way down the sidewalk, tuning out the nights noises and rants and began to sink back into his thoughts once again. Was this the way he was going to be for the rest of his life? Was this it? Just because of that choice he had made that day? Why! Why the hell didn't he just ignore it! Oh how it was beginning to eat him slowly painfully day in day out. The worst part about it, it not only was hurting him but the person he cared most about in the world, oh Kami how it hurt her. He hated this, he absolutely hated it, how it made her cry, wait by the phone at night, pick up their photo they took at the amusement park to not forget his face. It would be an absolute miracle if she would even give a thought to forgive him if he ever got to tell her what happened. The last thing he would want is to no longer exist in her heart, but if it was to make her no longer suffer...she would never leave his bleeding heart.Slipping back into reality again he felt his face was beginning to feel a sensation of warmth now and blinked blankly when he realized his eyes were now blinded by a bright light
" Eh?"
This was probably the last word that escaped out of his lips when his last memory was people surrounding him with shocked, worried panicked faces and voices screaming for help, a car that was swerved onto the sidewalk only a few inches away where he was laying, before he completely blacked out.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was bright. Warm against his eyelids and his face, he felt something soft leaning up against his back. He slowly opened his eyes to see he was facing a window and the sun was shining directly in his face. What happened? Where the heck is this place. Am I dead, or just stabilized like a vegetable in a hospital again? He felt arms, two arms that were wrapped around his waist and heard slow deep breathes that played against his face. Shinichi blinked for a moment before slowly turning around to face a woman with locks of chocolate brown hair that draped over her eyes and long brown hair that had sort of a bright aurora because of the sunlight that surrounded behind her, and a long curved body hugged by the comforter on the bed that they laid on.
" Ran...?.."
A bit of surprised. Throw in shock. Add a pinch of utter confusion. Mix it together
And you have what Shinichi is feeling right now.
Shinichi could not move his eyes away from Ran's face, carefully outlining all the features of her. Her face was a little more mature, she looked somewhere in her early twenties... Kami.. was she beautiful, and so close to him. Shinichi could feel his cheeks beginning to warm when he suddenly heard quick pit pats against the floor that suddenly stopped, then a giggle when it was now totally silent. Shinichi cocked an eyebrow when he was suddenly winded by a small mass of 40 pounds that grinned at him brightly sitting on top of his stomach, staring at him through piercing blue eyes and locks of light brown hair.
"Morning Tousan!"
" T..Tousan?"
