Shinichi's POV
He knocked determinedly on Kaito's door and waited. After a few minutes of silence he knocked again, louder.
"Go away." Kaito yelled, voice shaking. He reached for the door and pushed, but it seems Kaito had locked him out.
'Well I'm not a soccer player for nothing.' He thought grimly and aimed a careful kick at the door's lock breaking it in two.
He lunged for the broken piece, catching it just before it hit the ground.
Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the house, closing the door carefully behind him and mentally promising to pay for the lock repairs.
He quietly made his way to the living room. Surprisingly Kaito hadn't heard him break the lock which was really weird for the normally observant magician.
Said magician as currently sitting on the couch, curled into a miserable ball around the white plush dove that usually sat of his dresser.
"Kaito?" He called softly, not wanting to startle his brother. Kaito's head shot up and a forced grin spread across his face.
He frowned, wanting to wipe away the fake expressions and reveal something more, something better.
"I-I was just about to repair the tricks Aoko broke with her mop." Kaito stuttered and gestured to the array of joke products lying on the coffee table.
"Do you want any help?" He asked. Kaito stared at him speechlessly before nodding and moving to make room for Shinichi at the coffee table.
He slid in beside Kaito, grabbed an item and got to work. For close to an hour they worked in silence.
They cleaned out the pieces and put them all back together, Shinichi working with Kaito's blueprints to repair things properly.
Finally Shinichi grabbed the last item off the table and cleaned the springs and screws inside.
"Kaito… our conversation earlier was the mistake… not last night." He said quietly while he cleaned. Kaito's head snapped back to look at him, mouth open in shock.
"I was confused. Thinking that the fact that we're brothers means that we can't be in love. I was wrong."
Shinichi stared at him earnestly, willing his brother to believe him.
"Really?" Kaito asked, his voice quavering. His eyes still held traces of wounds and insecurity.
"I heard someone's opinion today." He said with a wry smile. "It made me think that maybe it's OK to be like this. Maybe it doesn't have to be perfect."
Kaito threw himself at Shinichi and hugged him as the both tumbled onto the couch. He patted Kaito's hair affectionately and kissed his forehead gently.
"It was my mistake and I'll do anything I can to make up for it." Shinichi said thoughtlessly.
"Oh, anything?" Kaito asked, indecency coloring his tone as he straddled Shinichi. He blanched.
Swept up in the moment, he'd forgotten how utterly corrupt Kaito was. Big mistake on his part.
"Well, it looks like surrender is my only option here." He commented casually.
Violet eyes glittered with mischief and the magician smiled in a vaguely disturbing fashion.
"Correct." Kaito whispered and closed the distance between them.
AN: This part was kind of hard to write. I kept needing to use books as references. On top of that I couldn't be seen writing this in class, especially by the teacher, otherwise people tend to assume the worst. Honestly I'm a little amazed at that. Just because you like this kind of stuff doesn't mean that your a bad person... just a little perverted.
To tell the truth if they saw half of the things i've watched/read they would avoid me completely. So I tend to keep quiet. :)
I'm amazed that my mom hasn't noticed yet... mind you... she's the one that got me into this (kind of) but I still doubt that sh- I'm rambling aren't I?
Sorry... I have a tendency to take one idea and run with it :D
Anyways... I hope you enjoyed the chapter and I'll see you soon ^_^
