Been a while, sorry T.T I just started middle school today… it's AWESOME! Since I care about my grades I will not usually post during week days (Except for today…) the last chapter was kinda like OVA 9, I think… anyway, enjoy! Also, this is a VERY short chapter, sorry.

"Shinichi…" Ran mumbled under her breath. Both of the two girls focused their attention on Shinichi with anxious eyes, because both of them secretly liked the detective.

Haibara fixated her attention on the high school detective, waited for him to arise from his slumber. 'Kudo-kun…' she gazed down at her secret crush. 'Why do you try so hard to become your normal self? If the black organization finds out that you're still alive… than you will be killed automatically, then I… then I… I would not know what to do.' The orange blondish girl leaned over Shinichi.

"So, you're also seventeen?" Ran guessed.

"Yes, I was also shrunk by the APTX 4869. Actually I was the one who created it, when I worked for the black organization." Haibara lowered her head in shame. She was glad that she had left the origination, because she was able to meet Kudo, who changed the whole way she saw things. Perhaps that was why she liked him, because he had shown her something she had never seen before.

"Are their anyone else that has been shrunk?"

"No… not that I know of."

"Why did it have to be Shinichi then? Why not someone else?" Ran pestered.

"Then someone else would be in pain instead, perhaps more!" Haibara reasoned.

"…" Ran stared at her shoes, suddenly finding them quite interesting. Ran had never thought about it that way before, she always was mad because she thought Shinichi had never been around her and had abandoned her. Even Sonoko was mad because he wasn't there, even though she didn't like him at all or miss him. If it had been Sonoko who had lost her love, she would be MUCH more worried than Ran ever was. "I guess you're right." Ran tilted her head to the right. "You really are a unlike girl you know that? At least I feel better talking to another of Shinichi's lovers."

"I DON'T LIKE HIM!" Haibara insisted but was a little peachy at that note.

"Oh, I see… I was just joking, but I guess that made you spill the beans at well!" Ran gave Haibara a suspicious look from the corner of her eye. Haibara looked away.

"I don't like him." Haibara said in a small soft voice. "I really love him." She was bright red, like an apple.

"Me too, so I guess that we are competing against each other," Ran said cheerfully.

"No you already won." Haibara shrugged. Ran blinked an eye, innocently. "You have already won his heart from me, you did years ago in fact."

"Ya right! He would never… he would never like me." Ran looked at her shoes again.

"Well let's ask him, he should be wakening soon." Haibara suggested.

"WHAT!?" Ran screamed. At that note Shinichi sat up, rubbing his forehead.

"What?" he groaned as his body shrunk in front of their eyes. Steam coiled of his cloths, both the girls looked at him. "What?" Edogawa Conan said, sounding more confused than ever.

"Um…" Ran blushed.

Soon… maybe this weekend I will post, K?
