Saiouma! (Detective x Detective AU!)

Falling in love with revenge <3

"You know, at this point.. you two should just get married. Sherlock Holmes and Watson!" Kaede told me, finally after catching up with everything. She pitied Kokichi, yet still "shipped" us more then ever.

Now the office started to think less hetero, and more about me and Kokichi. It was sort of annoying, since I didn't like Kokichi.

I didn't.

"You got jealous over him and Rantaro! And, you cuddled in bed together, kissed once, and technically stay together like Romeo and Juliet!"

"S-stop comparing me and him to duos! I was jealous because he might steal my assistant! We cuddled because I didn't wanna wake him up, and the kiss meant nothing! He stays by me because he's my PARTNER!"

Kaede sighed, raising an eyebrow at me. "Why so you hate the idea of liking Kokichi so much?"

...

.......

"I...because its... gay? I-I don't know...dating with my co-workers, especially as his boss is just... a power inbalance. If we start dating, who's to say he'll act different?"

Kaede clicked her tongue, snapping her finger. "Shu, he already acts like that with you. There's no difference to how he treats Rantaro, then with you! Consider it!"

I never thought about it that way. It felt..strangely right. Does Kokichi like me b-

"And if you thinking, "does he like me too"? Then give me your detective badge, because your BLIND!"

Fuck.

I decided to ignore it, as my uncle slid some more cases to me. They were murders, yet easy enough to crack the code and such. Now with a support group, it felt like I could push past any case.

There were some with double homicide, some where I couldn't find the culprit and almost gave up... before Kaede would cheer me on. Then, cheating spouses and lost pets.

Many news articles caught this, realizing my potential. How a lost dog can be found in under a week, how murderers should hide out, and how cheating spouses should watch their backs. I realized I had become sort of famous in my city, as the first coming detective.. not under my uncle.

Not hidden under his shadow. Finally, finally being able to stand tall with my friends. My life had reached its peak once Kaito and Maki moved nearby, visiting me and helping find info. We would train together and eat together, and suddenly a whole group was by me. Kokichi and I...I wasn't sure.

I'd realized that behind my back, I had fallen for him.

And I had no idea what to do.

Then, the case happened. The one that made me loose everything.

It was a jewel stealing, in a high stakes club full of the rich. It was a high value jewel, ruby with a slight tint of purple. A plan that night was d
For it to be stolen, so I had to be on the lookout with the whole office. Cops surrounded surrounded outside, watching.

The approach seemed touch, as real detectives would be hidden inside. Kokichi suggested some outfits to be let in the club, the staff knowing it would be us, with a special code.

"Herbs."

When I saw my assistant, my chest tightened, and I started to sweat.

Under all of his stuffy clothes, he wore a sequin white dress, shiny and hanging down all the right parts. It made his curve, dripped down his chest and loosely, yet tight near the hips, complimented his body. He wore silver earrings down to his shoulders too, placing some jewelry on. He wore his hair in a ponytail, trying to appear feminine. He had thigh highs that were white too, a white garder belt to pair..
I physically gulped at the sight, entranced by his appearance.
