"(Y/N) how did you and Ranpo meet and then eventually get together?" Naomi asked me one day. I smiled thinking back to that day. "Well we were both 14 at the time, and this was when I recently moved in with Uncle Fukuzawa. This was also when skill users were more of just an idea over a reality." The other gasped. "Skill users weren't always a thing? I mean we all know about Ranpo, but don't you have a real ability?" Atsushi asked. I nodded. "I've always had an ability I just didn't tell anyone till then. Now I believe that this day me and Uncle Fukuzawa were going to the theatre as part of a mystery we were solving, but before that we met the most peculiar boy."

-FLASHBACK-

"I can't believe the secretary of the company was killed," I said in a shaky voice. "Indeed." My uncle was always a man of not many words, but I could tell this took a toll on him too. "(Y/N) I'd like you to stay out here so you won't be at risk of getting hurt," he said. I nodded and took a seat. If only he new about my mind control ability thing, I'd be able to help. Alas, I didn't want to be known as a freak or captured and taken to a lab for experimentation. 

"Greetings!" I turned towards the energetic voice. Standing there was a boy around my age. He had beautiful green eyes, unevenly cut dark hair, and was wearing a cape and a school boy hat. He was pretty cute if I'm being honest. "Hello?" I said unsure if he was talking to me. "Is this the place where the secretary was killed?" I nodded. "Perfect well then I'll be off to go solve that." "Wait you're going to solve it?" He nodded proudly. "You'll see!" I nodded again and followed the strange boy.

-FLASHBACK END-

"Did he actually solve the case?" Kenji asked. "You know it!" "What was your first impression of him?" Junichiro asked. My face got a little warm when I answered. "If I'm being honest I thought he was the cutest thing I'd seen." A couple 'aws' could be heard. "Just because I thought he was cute doesn't mean I fell in love with him at first sight. I mean when a guy comes up and says he can solve a mystery and does it, when you have no leads, it's pretty amazing yet weird. Later that night was when I realized I wanted to take care and protect Ranpo with my life though."

-FLASHBACK-

"You're taking him with us to get dinner?" I asked my uncle. "Yes. It's a good chance for us to find out anything we can about him." I nodded and got in the back of the car. "Where are we going?" Ranpo asked me. "We're going to go get some dinner," I responded. 

When we finally got the diner Ranpo managed to eat nine bowls of soupy red beans. "How'd you manage that?" I asked. "This was nothing." "She means the case," Fukuzawa said. "Oh. Well you see..." and he started rambling a bit and I spaced out. "Here's my contact information," Fukuyama said hanging Ranpo a card. "Wait let me see that," I said. I quickly scribbled down my number before handing him the card. "Call me sometime too." "Alright so should we call your parents to pick you up?" I asked. "My parents passed away a few years ago in an accident," he sadly said. My eyes widened. "Where have you been living?" "Well I was with the police but I hated the training so I left," he replied. "I'm so sorry." This really hurt me. This boy was lonely and looked down upon just because he was very smart. I grabbed his hands and he looked up at me a little confused, his cheeks appearing a little pink. "I'll protect you then from now until the day we die!" A cough was heard and we both turned towards my uncle. "(Y/N) I'm glad you like helping others, but do you have to say it like this," he sighed. "Sorry." "Anyway kid you're coming with us to our next case."
