Its 5:22 in the morning EST and I wasn't able to sleep.
My mind's pre-occupied with some yada yada crack-a-doodle kind of things … And yes! My girlfriend already dozed off to dreamland. Apparently having nostalgic experiences with her 'mouth sore' issues.
Poor little thing. Anyway, I deeply apologize for the delay in updating said story. It ain't a writer's block. I'm just organizing my thoughts.
For readers who weren't able to get the jist of the story, feel free to send me a private message so I can clear the confusion. And for the constant changes in the chapters and titles – I'm sorry it only add up to the confusion but nonetheless, it'll never happen again. Imma make sure to load the whole chapter first before posting it as another chappie.
This is a YAOI story and if you are against homosexual activities | relationships | etc | etc , please do not read this as some scenes may come out eventually. So there, THANK YOU SO MUCH for reading & taking some time to review on my perfectly imperfect product of imagination.
Disclaimer: I do not own DC | MK - even if I'd like to.
Shinichi owns Kaito | Kaito owns Shinichi | and Gosho Aoyama owns both of them. *sniff sniff*
I know I keep on saying this - but please take time to review so I would know what | where | when | how to improve.

"Sometimes I want to ask if I'm still important for you.
If I'm still significant. But I'm not going to do it
For I fear that one day, you'll inevitably tell me
"why? Who are you in my life?"
It's as early as five o'clock in the morning and Fujimine Yumiko's already preparing for school. This'll be the first day in her new class and she's grateful for having high-end connections as it gave her enough edge among the general public. She half expected that she'll be attending her class as soon as possible but she never thought that it'd be as early as today. She recalled all the conversation she was able to eavesdrop before apprehending that asking for her mother's help was the best idea.
Being a girl brought her lots of advantages and DISADVANTAGES.
One – she never learned how to walk with a pair of manolo blahnik so she had to practice using one of the 100 pairs of shoes her mother bought for her. So basically, it's going to be her first day in school and she was up all night without even taking an hour of sleep. She'll temporarily stay in her OWN house in Beika until her parents give her the go signal to transfer to the new house they invest in for her. Thank God she's got generous | loving & most especially understanding parents.
It took her two hours and a half to finish her new daily routine which includes taking a bath for an hour submerged in a milk bath formula | wearing her undies which took her five minutes which seemed longer because she can't help but study her own profile in front of a life sized mirror.
She's as white as porcelain | her eyes still got the same hue with her old ones – minus the masculine shape. Her nose was petite and girlish and her lips were thin and pink – giving her a kissable pout. Her body was superlative. It was the first time she saw her profile since the day she turned out to be a girl. If you're the type of guy who can appreciate beauty at its finest, you wouldn't hesitate to give her a second look and most probably a third one too!
She ventured out of the Kudo mansion sporting her blue cotton linen sleeveless blouse with a high waist skirt over a gray long sleeve cardigan. Her mom, being a real pain in the neck, forgot to buy even one jeans to suit her liking. All the clothes were too girly for her taste—or maybe she's just being a meanie again. Whatever her reason is or was – it doesn't matter anymore. Yukiko succeeded anyway as her beauteous daughter felt comfortable with layered type of clothing which looks all too formal for her all the way showing her feminine side. Maybe – just maybe. She's in touch with her feminine instincts now.

"there's nothing more deceiving than the obvious"
The moon was devastatingly shining at its peak. Rays reaching even the deepest cavern of the horizon, extending to the heart of someone in grief. It's been almost a year since he lost Shinichi in his life – apparently, in the most significant heist of his life being Kaitou Kid. This time, no more coming back – he's never coming back.
He once loved the moon.
Being under its light made him so alive | happy | contented. But that was all before. Now it only made him reminisce some happy and not so happy flashbacks of the past. It was also that time that they decided playing one of their favorite games - acting each other's character. His current state struck him. He can't deal quality time with mirrors as he can see Shinichi's face staring back at him with questioning | confused eyes.
Yes. Everyone's well aware that they could pass as twins, aside from Shinichi's cerulean eye color and cowlick, everything else is the same. Whenever they pull of their game, both of them just have to wear the color of each other's eyes and rearrange their hairstyle. And Shinichi's a very good student. As soon as he thought him new tricks, in a matter of seconds, he was able to pull it off like a pro. He wasn't really able to sleep as his mind kept on thinking about the girl who was able to flawlessly pull off one of Shinichi's commonly used trick while trying to escape from his grasp. It's already dawn and if he try to take a nap, it'll turn out to be a fifteen hour sleep so he decided to get ready for school.
Once done with his daily routine, he took his iphone and played some music to soothe his senses.
It feels like a lifetime,
A thousand days have passed by
Since I held you close to me
If I could see that smile from my friend
I know that I could live again
I need you here with me
Kaito closed his eyes as tenacious memories came flooding in. It was the last song Shinichi played in his phone. And he kept on listening to the same song over and over for almost one year.
Heaven knows what to say
Even though for right
Now you're so far away
I hope and I pray
Somewhere in your heart I'll always stay
Boy, lately my sun doesn't shine without you
Never noticed what it feels like to be without you
Feels like I took my last step
And my last breath in my life ending
Had to say just what I was feeling, boy
'Cause my sun doesn't shine,
Sun doesn't shine without you
This is more for me than for you
Boy, I finally see there's no substitute
For what we have
Do you know how much I love you?
He stopped playing the music in his ears. He can't bear listening to it anymore as he was just bombarded with the past which will never happen again. And the song just made him realize how emotionally inclined he still is—to the person declared DEAD. Yet the words still feels inappropriate to be used.
(o_O)
"Don't be too confident when someone tells you they like you. The question is, "until when?" Just like seasons, people & feelings change..
if loving you is a crime,
then I am more than willing to be locked up."
Yumiko drew in a quick breath.
Her blood was pounding through her veins as she raced towards the train station. Today is her first day so she MUST make a GOOD IMPRESSION. Hah, were the gods laughing at her?
There is only ONE TRUTH. Well, the one truth was too far this time. And everything changed the moment she took the antidote. It all became a blur. Everyone presumed him – now her – to be DEAD.
Obviously, that can't be as she's now a good-looking teenager guy turned to be a cute little boy which eventually turned out to a perfectly imperfect lady version of her old self. Unbelievable but true. And impossible is not in her dictionary. So there, she's starting a new life—one that means leaving everything behind. She turned to a halt as she reached the train heading to Ekoda. She needs to catch up on the nine o'clock bus ride tracking to Ekoda High.
It took her fifteen minutes from Beika all the way to Ekoda. A little too impatient as she felt the need to clarify things to the school director.
.oOo.
He strides his way towards the bus terminal.
Early bird as he was, it was sensational that for some reason, he felt like walking in a limbo. He stopped seeing Aoko regularly before heading to school since he and Shinichi started living in one roof. Now, life couldn't get better without him.
Settling himself in one of the two-seater unoccupied chair, he sat by the window side. He felt empty, but the emptiness had begun much earlier. He took out his phone again and stuffed his ears with the ear buds – then closed his eyes trying to doze off as its going to be a long-short ride to school.
Moments after he settled in his seat, someone came down the aisle of the bus and sat beside him.
Holding exactly the same expression that says 'I am doomed | lonely | uncaring to the world | grieving | broken heated', he pried his eyes towards the source of the warmth on the left side of his body for today's seemingly endless journey. And stared, mouth opening in shock [same as the looks of someone caught red-handed], and stared some more. The other earthling smiled at him then turned her attention back to the book she held in her arms. Shoulder up to shoulder they shared that nine o'clock ride. Kaito's heart was screaming as the girl left her seat. He followed her movements and before he realized his actions, he was at her feet. The girl smiled knowingly at him before proceeding to her destination. He decided to follow her but with a blink of an eye, she was gone. And he found himself in front of Ekoda High. For the first time in almost a year, he smiled—a genuine heartwarming | head turning kind of smile. Looks like there's more to her worth plunging himself into …
