A mystery of the heart is too hard to solve
you say over and over again
We lie, we die, we murder for love
you say over and over again
You raise my hopes and then you break them
You say they're truths but still you fake them
I try to say what's in my heart
but by then you're gone
He had done it again.
(Hey Kazuha, I wanna ask you somethin')
She had gotten her hopes up.
(What?)
He had glanced towards Ran and Shinichi, the latter who had returned for a short visit just yesterday.
(Not here. How 'bout we go outside?)
She was sure that all her blood had rushed right to her cheeks. She let him lead her out to the backyard of the Kudo mansion.
(So? What'd ya wanna talk about?)
He had started fidgeting a bit. (definitely a good sign, she thought.)
(Ah...)
She was so ready for a confession.
(What, Heiji?)
More fidgeting, before he looked her in the eye. Her heart skipped a beat.
(D'ya like Kudo?)
Her mind had blanked out for a second, before she whopped the idiot on the head.
(No way, you Detective Freak!)
She had been that close to confessing herself, but Ran called them back in. Heiji had merely scratched the back of his head and laughed.
(Ah, good. Besides, I think Kudo's already got a thing for Ran-san.)
He was such an idiot.
(Hey, Kazuha, you cryin'?)
(No. Shut up, Heiji.)
A mystery of the heart is too hard to solve
I say over and over again
We lie, we die, we murder for love
I say over and over again
I take the hit, you just feel guilty
I say it once, but still you ask me
I try to show what's in my heart
but by then you're done
Kudo was back to normal again. Heiji was glad to see his friend relax for a bit, even if it was only for a few days.
What he wasn't happy about was the way Kazuha kept on sneaking glances at Shinichi and Ran. He knew it was totally illogical, but the thought kept on nagging at him. She couldn't like Kudo, right? 'Cause Shinichi obviously liked Ran. (besides, she's supposed to like me, his traitorous mind whispered.)
So he had acted on an impulse, dragging her outside,
(So? What'd ya wanna talk about?)
He had felt fairly uncomfortable, realizing that asking the girl he liked if she liked his best friend was a little weird. But he didn't have anything else to say, (you could confess, he thought, before squashing that idea) so he just said what he had initially planned to.
(D'ya like Kudo?)
Her reaction wasn't unexpected, but a good deal more violent than hoped.
(he should've just confessed. said that he was jealous of Kudo or somethin. girls liked that kinda stuff, right?)
And he would've, except Ran called them in for lunch. Kazuha wiped her eyes with her sleeve.
(Hey, Kazuha, you cryin'?)
(No. Shut up, Heiji.)
(Because if you are, I'll wipe 'em away.)
He didn't say the last bit, though.
