A/N : Hello my amazing readers. It is time for the new chapter! Today (Drumroll!) Kaito and Conan will find out about their relationship! (AS COUSINS!)
Previously on The Worlds Collide:
He was surprised when he saw Shinichi (he is still Conan, so as not to mess anyone up. Kaitou crouched down speak to him) turn around and latch his arm around his neck pulling him in for a hung and surprisingly he buried his head in his chest and began crying.
After a few minutes of him sobbing, and Kaitou holding him he began to speak.
"Haibara found out."
"What did she find out?"
"About my past."
Kaito's eyes widened. Shinichi's past was one thing that he had promised to not ask about until Shinichi was comfortable with telling him. He understood that it was a sensitive topic and that one wrong word could have Shinichi not speaking to you and him crying for ours somewhere else. He had learned this the hard way.
"Are you gonna be okay?"
Shinichi ignored his question. He continued.
"Kaito I need someone to tell this too."
Kaito gasped. Was Shinichi going to-
Conan sighed and said, "I think it's time you learn of my cursed past."
"You don't have to!"
Conan looked at Kaito.
"I thought you wanted to know?"
"I do. But I don't want you to have to go through things that you don't want to! That's more important to me, not your mysterious past that I know causes you pain to remember."
"Kaitou, I trust you and the only reason I hadn't told you before was because… I couldn't. My past is full of things that would make people pity me and I don't know I would do if you pity like all the others. Adults think I don't see their stares when they hear about me. Just knowing that I'm a teenage detective that has seen as much dead people as the ones alive they give me stares of pity. And some of hatred and how I bring death everywhere I go."
Kaito was astonished with what he was learning and Shinichi hadn't even started.
"I would never do something that can hurt you or make you feel different because you are the same as anyone else but have seen things that no human is meant to have seen. But you are strong even with what you saw. You moved on with your life and were able to get past it."
"No I wasn't able to get past it. For a year or more I was… depressed."
"It's not terrible to be depressed. I was too you know when my father died."
"Sure. But I'm pretty sure that… you didn't... "
Kaito was worried. He was stopping too much… it couldn't be that bad, right? Unless…
"Wait, no you're kidding right? You don't mean that you actually…"
"I do."
His answer was short and blunt. Kudo Shinichi had just confessed to his darkest secret. He had almost commit suicide had he not been saved by the closest people to his heart.
"I had almost commit suicide had I not been stopped several times and taken to the hospital in others."
"Why? Why would you of all people? You abhor suicide and do anything and everything ypu could to stop people from doing that! So why?"
"I was different at that time. I doesn't explain my actions and I know that but I wasn't in the right mindset. I had just lost my sister and my best friend. Then I lost my uncle and… my parents left around 2 months after the death of Uncle. They left and called every couple of months or so. Everywhere I went a murder would happen. The police force nicknamed me the shinigami because of it and I was desperate to end it all. I was scared of everyone touching me and I already… nevermind but I was in a bad situation. Ofcourse , that means nothing but… the Mouri's and Hakase took care of me and saved me from my stupidity. Anyways, Kaitou I'm tired and I want to leave."
"Shinichi you never told me your Uncle's name."
"Oh, his name is Toichi. Kuroba Toichi"
"…"
"Kaitou? Are you alright? Why did you freeze? Kaitou?"
"…"
"Did you somehow know him?"
"Yeah, I did. And I think I just found out something new?"
Conan was really worried. Kaitou was acting weird and He wasn't leaving till he made sure he was alright. And what could he have found out that froze him that much.
"What did you find out?"
" You're my cousin. That's what."
"I'm… your… cousin… You mean that your Kaito. Kuroba Kaito. The cousin that I haven't been able to find, no matter how much I tried to stay in touch."
"You weren't able to find me, because I made myself untraceable. You can't find me unless I want you too. I didn't know it was you. I didn't even know you were my cousin."
" Shinichi, are you mad because I'm your cousin? Because I'm a… thief."
"Are you mad because your cousin is a shrunken kid? Are you mad that I… brought my bad luck on your family? NO, you were not mad and you supported me and I'm pretty that you still would! I would never be mad about that and don't you even say I'm ashamed. Because I am more proud of you then I am of anything else. Even if I'm a detective, I'm pretty sure that I would have done the same thing and even more, screw the rules. You aren't killing anyone and you return everything that you steal so you aren't doing this for the money so please , believe me when I say that you are amazing and that I would do anything to help you thief or not, cousin or not."
Kaito suddenly dropped to his knees and hugged Shinichi and sobbed at his shoulders. Soon both cousins were crying. While soon Kaito calmed down, after all his tears had already been spent years ago and whenever he needed too, Shinichi never had that chance and never had a shoulder to cry on since he didn't want anyone to see him weaker than he thought he already was. He bawled like the child he was representing but these were truthful tears. Tears of hurt that spent years locked in his heart and now when the chance came unlocked itself. Years worth of pain and hurt that weren't able to be let out before where let out now. All the pain of being shrunk, of losing everyone close to him and his parents leaving him while they toured the world like he didn't matter and that he came in second place. All the pain and hurt of knowing that this world was mocking him and gave him the worst luck of all. And… and of finding his cousin that he lost contact with and knowing that he was alive and well and that they weren't gonna be separated ever again.
