AL. MOST. DONE!

This took me a little while to come up with. Writer's block attacked me once again but I managed to beat him off and throw him down the cliff where he would never disturb me forever (or would he still disturb me?).

And also... be careful what you read in the end. *giggles evilly*

Shinichi looked at the mirror, his handsome face reflecting so that he could see himself. He wore a blue suit with a red bowtie, and matching blue pants. He smiled. This conversation is my chance to explain everything to her, he thought as he walked towards the door, ready to leave.

As he opened the gate towards the outside of his house, he noticed a woman standing beside the gate entrance, with a pale purple turtle neck sweater and blue skirt. No mistake; it's Ran.

Shinichi smiled. "Ran." he called out, making the girl turn her head towards Shinichi. She smiled at the detective. "Hey, Shinichi..." she said. She then walked towards him. "You ready to go?" she asked, with Shinichi nodding.

After calling a taxi, getting inside, and telling the driver to go to Tekisha Restaurant, the both of them went silent as the taxi drove away. Ran and Shinichi didn't talk to each other; they just rested their heads on the glass windows, watching the background as it slipped away from their eyes.

When they arrived and had paid the taxi driver, they stood there for a few minutes. Ran then glanced at Shinichi. "So... you go first?" she asked.

Shinichi shook his head. "No. Ladies first." he said as he invited her in. Ran laughed at this and began walking towards the entrance, Shinichi following her.

It was a very pleasant night for the both of them. Ran and Shinichi had a nice night eating their food that was ordered. They had a nice chat together, telling each other the memories they had when they were children.

But suddenly, Ran remembered why she really wanted to invite Shinichi.

"Umm... Shinichi?" she said, making Shinichi face his head towards her. "Yeah, Ran. What is it?" he asked.

Ran went silent for a moment but then spoke up. "You know why I invited you here?" she asked the detective.

Shinichi, after a few moments of silence, nodded at Ran's question. "Yes. I think you want to know every detail about how I shrank into Conan, is that right?" he said, making Ran nod as a reply.

Shinichi finished his food quickly before speaking up. "Okay. It all started when we went to Tropical Land..." he began.

"...After I solved the murder at the coaster and after we got out with you crying, that mysterious fat man in black just ran past us. He looked really suspicious to me, that's why I decided to follow him. I won't tell you what the man in black did, but while I was spying on him, his partner, who was behind me, hit a metal rod at my head, making me unconscious. That's when they made me drink the shrinking antidote that they made, turning me into Conan. And that's why I kept the secret from you, because danger's going to await for you when I told you and everyone important to me." he explained the whole story.

Ran, after hearing the story, had a sad expression on her face as she looked away from him. "I'm... I'm really sorry, Shinichi... For yelling at you really badly. That must be painful to shrink into a kid again." she said.

Shinichi smiled softly. He then stood up and went to Ran's seat, patting her on the shoulder. "I'm glad you understand already, Ran." he said soothingly.

Ran, who continued to sob, buried her head on Shinichi's suit. Shinichi looked around before patting Ran on the back. "Ran, we need to go... people are watching us." he told Ran. The girl nodded, standing up from her seat and wiping her tears off, running off first out of the entrance. Shinichi paid the fee of their food before going out of the restaurant.

Shinichi saw Ran standing just near the restaurant, looking back at him. He walked towards Ran and hugged her when he was near her. "Ran... I'm so sorry for not telling you my secret... It's for everyone's safety, okay?"

Ran went silent for a moment before she buried her face on Shinichi's chest. "I know, Shinichi... I'm sorry for not understanding you, too. It just seems... really stupid of me to just jump into conclusions without listening to your reasoning. I'm so sorry, Shinichi..." she told him.

The rest of the evening just seemed to pass by until the two of them got home.

TWO WEEKS AFTER THE RECONCILIATION...

Shinichi yawned, waking up at around 7:30 in the morning. He still hadn't forgotten the reconcilation that happened two weeks ago, but he thinks it's enough for now.

Everything is back to normal, his body is back, his education is back, everything is back. His normal life is back, either. But there's still things that others didn't like: The Detective Boys didn't like it when Conan isn't there already, and Ai seems to be... he doesn't know... jealous?

After eating, all he could do is sit on the couch and turn the television on. It's also been a month since his search for the BO. And the BO is his only problem.

What if the BO's problem is him, too?

He cut off his thoughts when he saw that news is going for another murder case that he solved the day before. The reporter spoke about the murder case before the reporter interviewed two young ladies squealing at the back. One lady then snatched the microphone, shouting "Shinichi Kudo is AWESOME!" before the other one shouted "WE LOVE YOU SHINICHI!"

Shinichi had a really bored face looking at the girls on the TV. After a few minutes of silence at the house, the only thing that he could hear - aside from the sound on the television - was a knock on the door.

Who could that be?

*avoids the tomatoes kicking in* I know, I know, okay? It's a cliffhanger! But sadly, there would be no more chapters after this one.

Cuz I'm making room for a sequel!

*tomatoes stop*

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, a sequel is coming. Maybe it would actually take a while for me to write because of Test Subjects, but I'll make it, I swear with all my heart.

And so... this is it.

This is the end.

Everyone of you, thank you very much. For reading this story, following it, reviewing it, faving it... thank you. Thank you so very much.

I love you all!

Maybe the sequel would come out a bit late cuz I'm gonna work on my FNaF fanfic "Test Subjects" (I change my mind about "Wait For Me", that would be on hold for now), but it's still going to come out. I swear in the future that once you visit my account again, you'll see "Black Organization's Hunt For Shinichi", the sequel to this fanfic.

So anyways... Thank you!

Thank you very much!

I love you all, and will see you in my very next story!

Chiao!

R&R!
