Kaitos' POV
He was currently standing on the edge of the building with his cape hovering behind him, with his right hand clasped around the jewel he just stolen. He sighed in disappointment when it didn't glow red and placed it in one of his many pockets. Hurried footsteps made him turn half way around and made the infamous smirk appear on his face.
The door burst open and Conan Edogawa came rushing in heaving and puffing, but when he straightened it made Kaito frown.
He didn't look normal. By that, he looks like he should be seventy, not seven. He has black bags hidden badly with concealer under his eyes, he also looks pale in the face, like he has a fever. You can't see it much, but it also looks like he had been skipping meals, he is skinny but not like this. It was unhealthy. He looked like a skeleton.
He approached the child with caution, knowing that he could easily be hit by a sleep dart from that watch, or be hit by a football from this close would definitely leave a bruise.
"Are you alright Tantei-Kun?"
"Of course I'm fine!"
"Then why do you sound so grumpy?"
"Because I have to deal with you out in the cold when I could be having a drink of coffee!"
"Coffee at your age? And when did you started acting so cold?"
"What's wrong with having coffee at seven?" Conan glared at him
"Don't kids usually have milk or juice at your age?"
"I just prefer coffee okay?"
"... What's the matter Tantei-kun?"
"I told you! I'm fine!"
"You're not fine though, you look like you could drop dead any minute! How do you call that fine?!"
Conan seemed to be taken back a bit by his outburst as he just stared at him with wide eyes.
"When was the last time you had eaten?" he levelled him with a look.
It seemed to work as Conan gulped loudly "... two or three days ago?" he Squeaked.
"When was the last time you had some proper sleep as well?"
"..."
He sighed "You need to take better care of yourself Tantei-kun, you'll end up falling ill and start to worry your family and friends."
"I was busy..." he was avoided eye contact with him.
"No one can ever be too busy to not eat or sleep properly, when you get home eat something and try to get some proper sleep." He stared at him so when he received no answer he added: "Please, Tantei-kun."
He mumbled something that Kaito couldn't quite here
"What was that?" he asked softly
"I've been having nightmares." he was staring at the ground while toeing at the roof.
"Do you want to talk about them?"
"They are just weird..."
When he didn't continue, he started turning away from the child and headed to the edge again. "You know there will always be someone to talk to if you have a problem."
He opened his glider about to jump off the roof but he first gave Conan a gentle smile and wished him a goodnight before disappearing. He wouldn't usually give people that type of smile, but something inside of him wanted to show the child comfort. It was a strange feeling, to be honest. He wasn't sure if he liked it all not, but he hopes for the best for Conan Edogawa.
Shinichis' POV
He was still standing on the roof and his heart was hammering. He was surprised when KID let his guard down around him, he acted so human-like that it was quite refreshing. KID would always show up with that Smirk and prank the whole police force. It was hard sometimes to think that KID was actually human and had a home to go back to, a day to day life.
But there was something about that smile that made something in him go warm. He may come off as dense, but he knows the signs of love, but this wasn't love, it was a crush. Here he was hiding from the Black organization, having weird and horrifying dreams, and now he was falling in love with a thief.
He can't be with him anyway for numerous reasons.
1) He's a thief and he is a detective, they do not match
2) He doesn't know the thief, like who he is or even how old he is
3) KID might be straight as a board
4) And finally, he has a soulmate somewhere waiting to find him.
He thought that he would like KID to be his soulmate but then felt incredibly guilty, there was someone out there that would be his perfect match, someone who would be there for him through thick and thin. So he would keep his feelings to himself and try to keep KID away from the Black Organization, hoping that he won't get hurt or killed, or even get asked to join their twisted group.
