The two were lazily cuddling together when Kaito's phone began to ring, blaring out the Danny Phantom theme song. Kaito shifted a bit in Saguru's hold as he dug for his phone, it had fallen down in between the cushions.

The moment he accepted the call, the other person spoke before he'd even had the chance to "Did you take the pill yet Kuroba?" Indigos misted a bit, it was Ai.

He was silent for a few moments, clutching the phone in both hands "Y-Yeah..." His voice wavered. Saguru wrapped his arms around him, pulling him closer.

She'd been too late "I'm sorry" Regret laced her tone "I only just finished running tests on your latest blood samples" She'd called the moment she'd gotten the results "Are you okay?" She knew exactly how much Kaito had been wanting a child, and she considered the weird magician as one of her friends.

Kaito shot Saguru a glance, indigos soft "Saguru and I have each other" They'd get through this together.

"Take care Kuroba" Ai breathed, there wasn't much else that she could say besides empty reassurances.

"You too Ai-chan" The call then ended.

Saguru frowned, it looked like Kaito was about to start crying again "Haibara-san's call was good news" He stated softly. When watery indigos looked at him with confusion he explained "It means that she can identify if you're with child or not"

Indigos widened, that meant he wouldn't accidentally make the same mistake "I'm glad" He sniffed, burying his face in Saguru's chest "I'd rather suffer through having an oversized egg than risk killing a baby" But he wouldn't have to since Ai had swiftly noted his condition.

The blond tensed a bit at Kaito's offhand comment, Kaito had almost died due to an oversized egg. He would have if it hadn't been for Ai's help "Please don't talk like that" He nuzzled the magician's cheek "He'd hated watching Kaito as the other slowly grew weaker and weaker.

Oh, he hadn't meant to upset Saguru "I'm sorry" He pecked Saguru on the lips, he'd been thinking selfishly again. Saguru was hurt whenever he was hurt, because the blond loved him.

"Good" Gold softened, Kaito needed to take better care of himself.

The two went silent for a while, just enjoying the other's presence. Eventually Kaito decided that he should probably inform Saguru of the plans he'd made with Shinichi before he forgot "Um Saguru" Kaito bit his lip, Saguru was going to worry more than usual due to recent events "Shinichi texted me for help a few hours ago" And he'd replied by telling the other that he'd help.

Saguru stiffened, knowing what Kaito was alluding to. The FBI had requested for Kaito's help, it had been a while since he'd been called on "But you're still recovering..." And Kaito wasn't emotionally well either.

Indigos softened "I'm just going to do some spying and info gathering so that they can get the go ahead to raid the place" He gave Saguru's hand a squeeze "They're human traffickers" His voice softened "And they don't just deal with adults" Those monsters hurt children too.

The blond swallowed, fearful "How are you planning to get your information?" A scheme like that was dangerous to deal with.

"I'm going to pretend to be a potential buyer" There was no way in hell that he'd go in as an 'item' to be sold. Maybe if he'd been younger, or if he didn't have the financial backup of the FBI he would have posed as a slave to save the people, but he was more cautious now. He had the tools to do it the safer way, so he'd be an idiot not to utilize what he had. He met Saguru's gaze "Shinichi is going to come with me as backup, and we're both going to be microchipped just in case" He didn't want to be chipped, but if things did go wrong, the FBI could still storm the place to rescue them on the grounds of saving their agents.

"Why do they need you for this?" Surely a different person should suffice right?

Kaito gave a small grimace "They tried with other agents, but they kept disappearing" He pointedly avoided looking at the other's horrified face "I'm good at escaping, and the others hadn't been chipped" He paused "And they erased any evidence of the agents entering so the FBI couldn't do anything" Now that he was voicing it out loud, it did sound kinda bad now that he thought about it.

Saguru let out a breath, doing his best to forcibly calm himself "When are you leaving?" He knew the other well enough by now to know that there was no way that he could change Kaito's mind. Especially since children were being harmed.

The magician wrung his hands together nervously "I'm need to meet Shinichi at the airport around noon tomorrow"

"The airport?!" Saguru's worry intensified "Where are you going?" Please let it be somewhere in Japan,

"North Korea" He was kinda scared of going there but at least he wouldn't be alone.

That wasn't what Saguru had been expecting for an answer "Dove" His tone was strained "You're going to end up getting arrested since you're so weird" The magician's weirdness could make him look suspicious.

Kaito scoffed "I was Kid remember? I'm capable of acting like a boring normal person" Though he would be extra careful. The only reason the FBI were actually working on the case was because some American tourists had been taken. He wasn't sure about a lot of the legalities but he was pretty sure that if enough proof was gathered, the group could be taken down "Besides, Shinichi wouldn't have agreed to ask for my help with this if he didn't think that he'd need it" He trusted the sleuth. Though Shinichi also hadn't been aware of recent events when he'd asked.

"Kaito..." He didn't want Kaito nor Shinichi to go there.

The magician pointed towards his left eye "It's been upgraded so that it can record while being undetectable" His false eye was probably their best bet in nabbing these guys "I think that's the main reason why they asked for my help"

Me: Did you guys think that the title was talking about a happy trip?

Will Kaito go? Or will Saguru change his mind?

Hope you enjoyed~
