Warning: Harry Potter AU


What is it that no man ever yet sees, which never was but always is to be?

A messy haired boy is standing in front of the door, glaring at its bronze eagle-shaped doorknob. The boy loosens his red-gold stripped tie and grumbles some answer to the door softly, trying so many times yet the door still doesn't open up for him.

"Stuck again Kaito?"

A blonde is on his way to the door, he wears shirt with rolled up sleeves and a blue-bronze tie. The neat looking boy readjusts a thick astronomy book in his arm while listening to the doorknob as it sings the riddle for him.

"The answer is tomorrow," He throws Kaito a smug smile as the door unlocked before them, "This one is pretty easy don't you think?"

"Sod off," Kaito sticks his tongue out at his not so friendly friend Hakuba. Really, almost all the Ravenclaw know that sometimes, more like most of the times, Kaito is stuck in front of their door because he can't get in to the common room. They always help him, though Hakuba is the only one who constantly bugs Kaito about his inability.

"Are you going to stand there all day or what?" Hakuba says over his shoulder, since when that guy passed him and strolling inside already? "Quite sure my dorm mate will be sad if you decide not to come to our common room."

Cheeky git.

-KSKSKS-

Once again, Kaito is stuck in front of the door that guard Ravenclaw common room.

What's greater than God, worse than the devil, the rich don't want it, the poor have it, and if you drink it you die?

Kaito is so immersed in thought he doesn't even aware when someone stops behind him and listen to the doorknob question. The girl has long, jet black hair and wears Slytherin tie under the black school cloak.

There can't be anything worse than the devil right? Nor greater than God, so what is the answer from this weird question? Wait, the answer is not-

"Nothing."

The girl soft, airy voice startles Kaito, when he turns around he sees the heartthrob of Hogwarts, Akako Koizumi. She passes him to the common room, "You couldn't possibly think about another answer yes?" Akako smiles cutely, "Obviously nothing is worse than the devil."

What is it with pretty Slytherin and chills running on his back?

-KSKSKS-

Kaito is running to Ravenclaw common room. He is late by half an hour for his meeting with his beloved boyfriend! Kaito fully blame this on Professor Slughorn and his bloody detention. It was not his fault when his smoke bomb accidentally fell from his sleeve to the potion they made today and blew up the whole class! Tough the pissed off looks on those slimy Slytherins were sure satisfying.

The Gryffindor is in so much hurry he doesn't realize someone is standing in front of the door. He bumps her back quite hard; successfully make them both fall down. The blonde girl raise an unimpressed eyebrow at him, stands back and dusting of her skirt.

Voiceless it cries, wingless it flutters, toothless bites, mouthless mutters

He stares at her; a look from one Ai Haibara can make him speechless. That girl can give a look that makes you question your worth; making Kaito feels like an imbecile, and a ready to spill out every prank he has done to her, all the tricks behind it included.

"The wind."

Kaito is not incapable at school, dear God no. He got at least Exceeds Expectations for his entire subject, Divination excluded. But the riddles from Ravenclaw's door always leave him answerless, probably all his deduction ability has been taken by his detective of a boyfriend.

"Do come in after you done mopping on that floor, Shinichi's always cranky when he doesn't get his daily dosage of you."

Kaito dutifully get up and trailing behind the slightly intimidating, blonde Ravenclaw through the open door.

-KSKSKS-

The tension is pretty high inside Hogwarts one of these days, considering the annual quidditch inter-house competition is going on. You can watch all the students' spirit go up high and those who joined the team throw the other from another house glare in the hallway.

Gryffindor is no exception. At the moment Kaito's captain, Heiji Hattori, is trying to drag his seeker from his way to Ravenclaw tower, mumbling a strategy for their upcoming game with Slytherin and cursing said house silver haired senior of a captain along the way.

"Fancy seeing you here Heiji, but would you please stop manhandle my boyfriend?"

Both boys stop their quarreling at Shinichi's no nonsense voice. Kaito smugly takes off Heiji's hands from his arms and merrily walks to his boyfriend side. Heiji frowns and cross his hands, "Just give me back my seeker by six tonight, I can't win if it's arguing with you."

Shinichi calmly smiles at his fuming friend, "Relax, I'll give him back, and you're going to have wrinkles if you stressed out that much."

Kaito grins, "I recommend dating a girl to lower the tension," he links his hand with Shinichi, "I heard you are pursuing a stubborn Huffelpuff, Kazuha right? Good luck with that." He laughs and starts walking to Ravenclaw entrance, leaving a speechless, red faced captain behind.

I run and run, never tire - down and down, never up

Kaito smirk at the surprisingly easy question, "It's a river." He looks aside at Shinichi; they answered it at the same time. His boyfriend just grins at him and claims a couch near the fireplace, putting glasses on, and start reading a thick arithmancy book that he brought along.

"We're on a date here," Kaito drops his arse on the couch, "And you choose to flirt with an arithmancy book rather than with me."

"I have a test tomorrow," Another flip of the page, "Please bear with not having my undivided attention for tonight."

"No fun," Kaito starts playing around with his wand, transfiguring pile of Shinichi's things around their seat, "But you are coming to my game right?"

"Obviously, I won't miss my beloved boyfriend game for anything else in the world."

Despite being said with a straight face and flat tone, Kaito still sigh happily at the other's answer, "You can wear your muggle tee, the one with I heart Kaito in front, when you cheer for me."

"No, not a chance."

A white bunny, used to be Shinichi's favourite quill, jumps into a very comfortably seated Gryffindor's lap. A dejected and pouting Kaito cuddles it close, "You know, I really hate your common room door."

An eyebrow shot up on his forehead, "And why's that?"

"It's a bad luck charm for me," Kaito holds up his index finger, "Two weeks ago I met a weird Slytherin witch when I was stuck there."

"Akako Koizumi?" Shinichi's looking around for his transfigured quill now, "You have my sympathy."

"That one time I was stuck with that blonde friend of yours, it was pretty unpleasant," Kaito holds up the white rabbit, peering at its cute black eyes, "And God knows how many times I was stuck with Hakuba."

"We both know that Hakuba is a bloody pompous twat," Shinichi almost giving up on his quill, then he sees Kaito's white rabbit, "And I can't really say anything about Ai."

"But still, it's troublesome."

Shinichi takes off his glasses and drops it on the table, along with the arithmancy book he's reading. He flicks his wand to change the rabbit to its rightful shape and plucks it out of his boyfriend grasp. He slithers to Kaito's lap, knees fit snugly between the Gryffindor's hips. He put his index finger on his boyfriend's lips, cutting any rants that going to fall from Kaito's lips.

"Do you regret it?" Shinichi slips his palms through Kaito's dark locks, bringing their faces closer, "Dating me, I mean."

"Nope," Kaito grins and circles his hands around the other's hips, "Not at all."
