Finally done with the exams. I have to apologize once again for being a slacker on updating my story.

Well anyways here's chapter 3.

We will be having a little Conan and Ran moment here.

DISCLAMER: I DON'T OWN DC GOSHO DOES.

Chapter 3: I Hate this Part

After in a state of almost-kissed-by-the-girl-he-now-likes he still surprisingly catches up on her. After all, he was frozen like rock for about a minute or two after what his best friend did to him.

''Hey don't leave behind.'' He shouted at the blonde haired girl.

''Well don't be a slowpoke.'' She shouted back slightly annoyed.

He then catches up with Ai and continue to walk home until Hakase's house is in their view. Hakase's yellow old beetle was parking outside and suitcases were above his car.

''Hmm, I think Hakase will be leaving for another convention.'' Conan broke the silence between them.

''Yeah, I can see that clearly Sherlock.'' Ai replied with her cold, sarcastic voice that makes Conan laugh nervously.

''Ohh, Shinichi-kun, Ai-kun. You're finally here.'' The old man greeted with a huge grin on his face.

''I won't be long Hakase. I need to get home. Say, where are you going? I can see you're packed for a long trip again.'' Conan asked the professor even though he knew where he was heading. '' and one more thing Shinichi's gone so can you please just call me Conan from now on?''

Agasa Hakase watched the little boy hanged his head and his bangs covering his eyes while saying that Shinichi's dead. He felt sad for the boy even though he didn't the whole story but somewhat agreed to him.

''Well, all right if you say so Shini- Conan-kun.'' The professor faked his smile. ''Ah, anyways Ai-kun I'm going to a convention out of town for this weekend so you'll be on your own. Gomena sai. But I did leave some food on the refrigerator so if you get hungry just re-heat them. Will you be all right on your own Ai-kun?'' explained by Hakase. But he's not that worried after all she is already 20 years old but in a cute size.

Just before Ai could reply to the Professor's question Conan replied enthusiastically ''She'll be fine Hakase. I'm going to be with her for this whole weekend. What do you say Hakase?'' he said to Professor with a huge grin and sparkly eyes that make the professor chuckle and say yes. ''Ha ha, sure Conan-kun but you have to tell Ran-kun about this.''

Hearing Ran's name made Conan at bit sad because he knew that he'll be seeing her crying or sad. But he perfectly hides it to Hakase but not to Ai. Ai is watching him carefully. ''All right Hakase I'll be going then.'' After that he took off.

Hakase sighed ''Do you think he'll be fine Ai-kun?''.

''I think so.'' She sighed. ''This will be a long weekend.'' while walking towards the door.

Hakase chuckled like he thought of a different meaning about Ai's last statement. ''Ai-kun.'' he called Ai and she turned around. ''I think this is the perfect time to tell all about how you feel.'' He said confidently ''After all, I think he feels the same way too.'' These statements makes Ai blushed. He walks towards her and hugged her tightly before say goodbye. ''Good luck with that Ai-kun''. He whispered to her and all she could do was to nod and smile.

''This will be a really long weekend.'' She sighed before she goes inside.

-In front of the detective agency-

A 10 year old boy was standing outside looking up to where the agency is. Sadness can be seen in his eyes. 'I don't want to see her crying. I really hate this part. This is what I hate the most!' Conan shouted at his head. Every time that he called using Shinichi's voice, he always makes Ran cry. He hated it whenever he heard her cried and crushes his heart when he saw her sad.

He gathered up his courage and look like a normal 10 year old boy who just have a normal day at school with his friends. He finally opened the door and he is not surprised by the scene. His oji-san was asleep at his table drunk and while the TV is open. He scanned the room there is no sign of Ran and gives him a relief. 'good thing Ran is not here.' He thought. Suddenly, he heard sobs upstairs. He's not curious about it 'cause he knows that its Ran. Conan can't take it anymore he had to at least comfort Ran even though it hurts him so bad. As he ran upstairs he knocked on Ran's door and opened it. He walks towards her and talks like a little kid with what-happened-Ran-neechan tone.

''Oh Conan-kun you're here?" while wiping her tears. She hates it when Conan saw her cry.

''Is this about that Shinichi guy again?'' clenching his fist while hanging his head a little so that Ran don't see his eyes. ''What did he do this time Ran-neechan? Why is he being an idiot? Why does he leave you for 3 years on the first place and all he did are to call? And..and." his voice is trailing off because of anger and slight tears. Ran was a bit curious because of Conan's questions and attitude but she is too sad to question him. Conan has been her little brother for the past 3 years and he's been there for her. ''..Conan-kun.." almost inaudible for Conan to hear "He have done nothing bad this time.. He just say goodbye forever that's all.'' She said with a shaky voice as she picked Conan to her lap and hugged him tightly. "I don't mind it. I am just being emotional right Conan-kun?''

'Ran I'm really sorry.' Conan thought while releasing himself from Ran's grip. 'I don't want see you hurt, I don't want to see you cry. You and I had to move on. I'm really, really sorry.' He thought deeply and tries to keep himself from withdrawing tears from his eyes. "You just have to move on Ran-neechan. He's an idiot, he's not worth it.'' Those words made Ran's eyes widened in shock. "Conan-kun…" that's all she could say. She's frozen because she never thought that Conan could say that as if he knows everything. An awkward silence filled in Ran's room but Conan breaks it. "I'm going to sleep at Hakase's house with Ai. Hakase is away for the weekend so don't worry about me. I'll be fine.'' Even before Ran could reply he took off to his room and prepare his clothes. He hurriedly ran out through the door taking his skateboard with him. He is still a bit sad but the moment he ran out of the agency, image of Ai popped into his head that made his tears and sadness go away.

-Ran's room-

She still sat on her bed thinking what Conan just said earlier.

''He sounded like Shinichi.'' She whispered to herself.

''But did he say those words before he ran off?"

(A/N: a little flashback)

"I'm sorry Ran, I love you but I love somebody else.'' Conan said in a whisper and almost inaudible to hear but she heard it anyway.
