Warning: AU, chibi!KaiShin


Rain is pouring on Teitan Elementary right now, making a lot of its students stuck waiting for the rain to stop, like Kaito. The boy is leaning on one of the tree that scattered around his school, pouting slightly. He knows he should have listen to his mother advice this morning to bring an umbrella.

"Forgot your umbrella?"

Kaito looks up from his sulking to see a pair of blue eyes that belong to his classmate; the boy holds a big transparent umbrella that looks way too big for his size. Kaito can't remember his name tough, Eto-kun or something; So Kaito just quietly shakes his head.

"Too bad," Shinichi leans a bit closer to the other boy, making his umbrella bumps the tree and bother his well-balance, "Where do you live anyway?"

Kaito almost laughs at the boy's surprise at his own clumsiness, but he tells him anyway. Shinichi grins and pulls Kaito hand so they stand under the umbrella together.

"That's not too far from my home!" his classmate looks at him hopefully, "Why don't we go home together Kaito?"

"You don't mind? I'll go with you!" a shy smile on the other face blossoms instantly from Kaito's answer

Two boys are walking happily under the rain. The messy haired one walking a little ahead from the other with spring in his steps, splashing the puddle of water and wet the rim of their shorts. The blue eyed one laughing quietly behind him, holding the umbrella tightly and happily letting his new friend enjoy the rain.

"You know, I really like your magic tricks."

Kaito stop his happy water-stomping, "Really?"

"Yeah, I think it's awesome!"

Kaito feels happiness spreads through his body, this is the first time someone his age says that his magic trick is awesome! All his classmates always say that Yaiba is cool, that anime are awesome. He does like those things but magic trick is way more awesome, and his new friend thinks so too!

"You can move your hands so fast Kaito!" Shinichi gesturing cutely with his free hand, "You have a rose in your hand and whoosh now the rose is inside Aoko's pocket!"

Kaito watches his classmate's excited babble about the trick that he learnt from his father. He promised himself if his magic tricks can make his friend this happy, then Kaito would be a magician for him, a magician just like his father!

"Ah, we're here."

They stop in front of Kaito's home, "Thank you for liking my tricks."

The blue eyed boy smiles warmly, "You're welcome," He starts to walk away from Kaito.

"And thanks for the umbrella!"

Shinichi waves his hand at Kaito but doesn't look back. Kaito is going to talk with him tomorrow at school, he forgot to ask for name, he's sure they will be a good friends.

But the blue eyed boy doesn't come to school the next day, he move abroad to study in America.

-KSKSKS-

Rain start to fall around Tokyo after Kaito finished his show. The audiences rush to go home, giving their regard to the host in a hurry. Kaito really is happy with how his first magic show turned out. His debut performance was a blast, how his father's face lit up, proud with his only son on the first row, paid up all the hard work.

Kaito leans on a pillar at the entrance, watching the rain with bittersweet feeling. It was raining like this when he decided he would become a magician, ten years later and that dream become reality. He remembers the boy with blue eyes offering to share his umbrella, shared his love for Kaito's magic tricks, and became the reason why he wanted to be a magician.

Sad really, Kaito don't get any chance to meet that blue eyed boy again.

"Forgot your umbrella?"

Kaito jolts and turning his head around and stare speechless, there stand a young lad with the same blue eyes, the same warm smile.

"Congratulation for the show Kaito, I really like your magic tricks."

"Thank you," The boy, young man, opens his transparent umbrella, not looking as big as it was before in his hand. Kaito feels so giddy, finally he meets the blue eyed boy again, "You know, I never got a chance to ask your name before."

He holds up his free hand, "My name is Shinichi," Kaito takes his warm, warm hand without any hesitation, "Shinichi Kudo."
