Sato and Tsukiko stood there, still pointing at each other. "Why are you here?" they both shouted.

"Don't tell me…" Tsukiko said, crossing her arms and smirking. "You and Detective Takagi are on a date!"

Detective Takagi's and Sato's faces went bright red. "N-N-No…" they both said, waving their hands in the air.

Tsukiko raised an eyebrow. It was obvious that both of them were on a date. Why they were trying to hide it, who knows. Tsukiko crossed her arms and looked at both detectives.

Sato cleared her throat and the blush was dieing off her cheeks. "S-So…" she said, looking at Tsukiko. A grin was on her face and she seemed very suspicious of Tsukiko. "Don't tell me, you're on a date with-" Sato cut herself off when she looked at Kaito. Her eyes suddenly went wider and her jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Takagi also seemed to be speechless at what he saw.

Kaito looked at both detectives, with a small nervous smile on his face. He didn't know what to do now.

"We're just classmates having some fun on the weekend," Tsukiko said, smiling. "Nothing more."

The detectives slowly nodded.

Tsukiko grabbed Kaito's arm and began backing away very slowly. "Now, if you don't mind, Detective Sato, Detective Takagi," she said, "my friend and I should be going." Tsukiko then turned on her heel and dragged Kaito away with her.

Detective Takagi and Sato tilted their heads to the side. "Did he look like…?" Sato began.

"Yeah…" Takagi said.

The two detectives looked at each other, still shocked at the resemblance between Kaito and… "Kudo Shinichi?" they both muttered.


Tsukiko and Kaito were out of sight from the two detectives. Tsukiko gave a deep sigh, tired. Why did she have to meet up with Detective Sato and Takagi? On the worst day! Any other day would have been fine, but not today!

Kaito gave a small chuckle, which he should have never done.

Tsukiko looked up at Kaito and glared. Kaito felt another shiver go down his spine and he knew he should back off. Tsukiko thought he had learned his lesson about laughing and decided to just let it be. There was really no use in fighting with him.

Tsukiko sighed and began walking away.

"Where are you going?" Kaito said, watching as she walked away.

Tsukiko stopped walking and turned halfway around. She looked at Kaito and grinned. "Well," she said, "I'm not letting today go to waste, we might as well just have some fun."

Kaito grinned, happy she finally admitted she was having fun.

"Although," Tsukiko said, her grin fading into a frown, "this doesn't mean I like you or consider you as a friend, Kuroba-kun."

Kaito rolled his eyes. Back to square one… he thought. But then he thought a little longer, he never actually left square one. Kaito shook his head and looked back up to Tsukiko. He then grinned and walked along with her.


It was evening and the sun had already set. The whole day Kaito had been dragging Tsukiko around Tropical Land, which she didn't enjoy one bit. He first dragged her on a bunch of coasters; second, he took her on things that were calm and fun; and third, he took her shooting for plates, which he should have never done. He even bet her that he would win, but he ended up losing, terribly.

Tsukiko and Kaito were walking down a walkway filled with lights all around them. Behind them was the fountain with it's many colors. Also they were the only people walking down there, other then couples that is.

Tsukiko was gripping a stuffed animal she had won in the shooting game. It was a panda with big, brown, eyes. Usually she didn't get stuffed animals and such, but she just couldn't resist.

Kaito had his hands in his pockets and was looking at the night sky. From time to time he glanced over at Tsukiko, wondering what he should say to lighten the mood. But nothing came to his mind.

Kaito looked around and noticed the big Farris-wheel in the east of where they were. Kaito grinned, getting a brilliant idea.

Tsukiko glance up at Kaito and saw the grin. She rolled her eyes. He has an idea in which I'm not going to like… she muttered.

Tsukiko then felt Kaito grab her hand and pull her along as he darted off. "Hey, Kuroba-kun!" Tsukiko said, running behind him.

"One last thing before we leave!" Kaito said.

Tsukiko lifted an eyebrow, what was he planning?

Kaito and Tsukiko were both panting. They were now sitting in a Ferris-wheel cabin. Tsukiko looked out the window and saw the amazing view. Kaito did the same, but not as quite amazed as Tsukiko was.

"Prefect…" Kaito said. You could hear that he was out of breath from the running. But he seemed glad they made it in time.

Soon Tsukiko's face broke out in a big, loving, smile when the fireworks began. Tsukiko looked over at Kaito and saw him looking at her, he had a grin on his face and he seemed pleased with himself. Tsukiko of course lifted an eyebrow at him, but she couldn't help feeling her heart race a bit. She was wondering what he was so pleased about. Not even she could read his mind.

Tsukiko looked out the window along with Kaito. But soon Tsukiko's smile faded and turned into the melancholy one she showed earlier that day.

"When I was younger," she said, Kaito looked at her, wondering what she was going to say, "I came here with my mother and father… They loved it here, saying as how they had their first date here… I was young and barely remember the trip, but what I do remember is the fireworks that night." Tsukiko looked at Kaito with a painful expression. "That's why I was acting weird earlier… I don't really enjoy coming here because it brings me back memories of my parents."

Kaito frowned, wondering what he could say to make her feel better. But really nothing came out of his mouth.

Tsukiko grinned. She kicked Kaito in the shin, making him wince in pain and glare at her. "But don't think you can just grab me any ol' time and run off with me just to have fun at Tropical Land."

Kaito looked at her, smiling. "Does that mean I can grab you to do anything else?" he said.

Tsukiko got a bit angry at that. "No knuckle brain!" she shouted, hitting him on the head. After the shouting and fighting, Tsukiko smiled at Kaito. Not one of her fake smiles either, it was a genuine smile. "Thanks," she muttered.

Kaito looked at Tsukiko, his heart had skipped a beat, but he paid no attention to it. He had wondered if he heard her correctly. "Did you just thank me?" he said, pointing at her and a smug grin on his face.

Tsukiko crossed her arms. "Who said I thanked you?" she said, lifting an eyebrow. But she grinned and Kaito knew that he had heard her correctly. But the grin was only for a split second before it vanished. "Why would I thank you for kidnapping me and making me have fun?"

Kaito laughed and so did Tsukiko. Both had fun and enjoyed their time at Tropical Land. Even thought Tsukiko hated Kaito, she had to give him some credit for trying.

Later Kaito walked Tsukiko home and then went on his own, back to his home. Maybe him and Tsukiko were making some progress. Kaito might even be closer to finding out where the Toyoshima Heirloom is and finding out why his father hid it. But, why was he feeling a sudden attraction for Tsukiko? The only reason he's becoming friends with her is to find out where the Heirloom is. So, why all of a sudden?

My favourite line right now. Although, all his lines are my favourite. And since Sato was in this, here's a bonus.
