Saimatsu

A/N-Honestly, the title is a warning on its own-

Just some Saimatsu, but no crack, smut, or angst! I can't write that!

Whheeeeee-

Shuichi's POV

I didn't exactly know what got me here, but here I was, and I was suffering. Well, not exactly.

I was seated on Kaede's lap, as she played the piano. She asked me to place my hands on top of her's, and follow her hand gestures as he finger glided upon the clean, and well kept keys.

Comparing my hands and her's, the comparison was pretty confusing, but it made enough sense.

Her hands were pretty calloused, yet somehow soft in certain areas, such as her palms. Her finger were long and nimble, which were perfect for playing the piano.

My hands were soft, and much more petite and small. My fingers were average, and about 2 centimeters shorter than her's. My fingers weren't used for any hard work such as playing an instrument, so they were soft in comparison to her's.

The song she was playing was pretty simple. It was one of Mozart's pieces, printed within the pages of a beginners piano book, called 'John Thompson's Modern Course For The Piano'(It's an actual book).

If I remembered correctly, the name of the song was..'Air'...

Just then, Kaede finished the song, and I turned to see her bright, smiling face. In presence of it, my face broke into a small, shy smile.

"Do you wanna try?" She asked.

I quickly shook my head. Instruments were never my strong suit, and it hurt me to realize that she was so persistent on getting me to play, that she wouldn't stop until..What extent..?

"S-sure.." I mumbled, my hat sliding down my face.

Then, my hat was swiftly grabbed by the rim, and thrown across the room.

"Confidence is key, Shuichi!" She stated proudly, forcefully holding my hands above the keys.

Then, her grip softened.

"Just try, alright? I know I'm being a bit pushy, but sometimes, you can't let the fear of messing up get in the way, okay?"

Her words numbed all the anxiety I had. I sighed, and slowly nodded, making her face brighten up.

"A-alright..B-but please don't l-laugh.." I murmured.

"Okay! Begin!" She said, as she let go of my hands, and allowed me full control.

I bit the inside of my lip, and twisted my tongue inside my mouth, and began reading the book, as my fingers slowly glided across the keys to mimic the note in the book.

I slowly came to a stop around the end, not sure what I was supposed to do next. Then, Kaede gripped my fingers, and slowly finished the song for me.

I sighed, and turned to her, about to apologize for the trouble, until she jumped at me.

I yelped as she tackled me to the floor in a hug. I couldn't breathe well.

"K-kae-de-" I wheezed.

"Oh! I'm so sorry!" She got up off of me, and heaved me to my feet before I could hold out a hand.

"You did amazing, Shuichi! Normally, it takes beginners at least a week to get it, but you understood it in a day with no experience at all!" She complimented me.

I reached for my hat that wasn't there, and blushed madly.

"I-i think i-it's only b-because I-i've been a-around you for so l-long..I-i don't deserve a-any credit for u-understanding the p-piano w-when you're a-always a-around m-me, e-encouraging m-me.." I stumbled across my words, and face the wall on my left due to sheer embarrassment.

She gripped my hands, and held them in front of me.

"You did amazing Shuichi! Don't put yourself down like that!"

3rd Person POV

The taller girl let go of the detective's hands, and he immediately started fiddling with them close to his chest.

"Hey, do you wanna go get some popsicles?" Kaede asked out of the blue.

Shuichi turned to her, and looked her in the eyes for a good 3 seconds before replying with a small:

"S-sure.."

-

Kaede had gotten a pink popsicle, and Shuichi had gotten a blue one.

Kaede giggled as her tongue look normal as ever, but Shuichi's tongue was a mix of natural color and food dye.

He frowned at the color of his tongue, but continued to slowly chew small bits of the now soft popsicle in his hands. That's when Kaede called him out.

"Shuichi! How are you not sensitive to the cold!" Kaede pouted.

"Oh..it's because the popsicle is more softer now, so I can bite into it with no issues, unlike a cold, hard one that could've hurt my teeth if I bit into it." Shuichi explained.

"Let me try!" Kaede demanded.

Shuichi got up to get her another popsicle, but the she snatched his from his hands.

"H-hey!" Shuichi protested, as Kaede bit off a large piece of Shuichi's popsicle.

"You'e right! It does hurt less!" Kaede giggled.

Shuichi, feeling a bit daring, ignored her, and went to her kitchen to steal another popsicle.

"Heeeyyyy! Don't ignore me!" Kaede started after Shuichi, who had disappeared around the corner of the kitchen.

When she got to him, he was slowly licking a green popsicle.

"Melon flavor?! Shuichi, Kaori is going to KILL you!"

"I brought this on my own, and even if it was Kaori's, she'd let me off the hook." Shuichi giggled.

Kaede tilted her head in confusion, before Shuichi giggled again, not cutely, but rather...sadistically.

"I have a bit of dirt on her...And if she doesn't want it revealed..." Shuichi didn't finish the sentence.

I shivered slightly , and started sweating, as his eyes glinted a slightly pink color.

Then, his eyes returned to the normal, soft, gullible, yet mature eyes I was so used to.

"Okay, how about we just go to sleep for the day, alright Shuichi?

"W-wait, what? We can't just end the day by eating popsicles, it's unhe-"

Kaede's POV
He never got to finish, because I scooped him up like a child, and started carrying him towards my room.
He thrashed and protested, but even his own body knew that he was too tired to do much. So, without falling asleep, he buried his face into my shoulders.
I made it to my room, where I placed him down on the bed, and allowed him to doze off for the night.
After an hour or 2 of looking at him, I changed my clothes, and laid down next to him.
Things didn't seem eventful, but ever moment with him counted. For me, anyways.
