Happy Canada thanksgiving~

^-^ My thanksgiving is cancelled because nobody wants to kill my Nanny, she's always the host

Saguru glanced over at Kaito, the magician was wide awake and alert by his side as they entered the airport. There was absolutely no sign of sleepiness visible on the other, despite how Kaito had been dozing in the car not too long ago. Kaito's suitcase was light, filled only with items that he was willing to lose. He'd even gotten himself an old cheap smartphone to bring instead of his usual one "Do you know which gate you're supposed to go through?" He inquired.

Kaito blinked, a sheepish smile crossing over his face "No, but that's what Shinichi is for" Indigos gleamed "He's the one who has our tickets"

"I didn't want you to go off without me" Both males turned to see the sleuth approaching, a small suitcase trailing behind him. Shinichi offered a wave "Sorry for making the trip so early in the morning Saguru" He apologized.

"Oi" Kaito frowned "Why are you just apologizing to him?"

Shinichi smirked "Because I know that you're better at waking up outside of routine than him" He was a hypocrite since the one who was worst with mornings was actually himself, but there was no need to mention that.

Saguru smiled at the interaction, he was going to miss the two of them "Please don't just order out food while you guys are gone" He knew it was bound to happen, but maybe he could make them wait longer than usual before getting lazy? "The two of you will need to be in top form"

A faint pink tinted the magician's cheeks "You've seen what I'm capable of on only energy drinks and 3 hours of sleep" He could work his magic no matter how badly he ate "Takeout isn't always unhealthy you know" He smiled "I'll order some salads to go with my meal" And some extra goodies because there was bound to be some cool Korean desserts for him to try.

"Ordering out is better than having me cook too often" Shinichi countered as they passed through a few gates. His skill was limited so it would limit their food options if he were to cook too often.

"I tried" Saguru sighed, though he wasn't really all that surprised.

Indigos softened "We'll take good care of each other" He and Shinichi have gotten through a lot of dangerous shit together, and they'd do the same this time as well "You know what we're capable of whenever we team up" Kaito was grinning now.

Saguru's smile was soft, but sad "I do" As much as he didn't like to admit it, Kaito and Shinichi made a much better team than Kaito and himself. The two just had this synergy in their teamwork that he just wasn't capable of. Instead of jealousy, it gave him a form of relief whenever the two had to go off on some dangerous mission. He knew that the two would have each other's back, which would allow the both of them to return relatively unharmed.

Shinichi eyed the interaction, feeling a bit bad for Saguru. If he were in the blond's place, he'd be worried sick and annoyed that he couldn't go too "Remember, don't feel alarmed if we're gone for months" No news would actually be good news in this situation "If anything goes wrong you'll be given a call, otherwise we're to be considered safe"

The blond grimaced, months? That was quite a long time. He ducked his head in begrudging acceptance "I understand" He would handle it since neither of them would be alone. He trusted their skills. Gold softened "It'll be very quiet without the two of you"

Kaito tilted his head, indigos narrowing in thought "I've been wanting a kitten for a while now..." It was the truth. He offered a small smile "It obviously wouldn't be the same, but if Tsuki isn't enough, you can pick one out" Watson had been released into the wild two years ago, since it wouldn't be fair to keep her all her life. The hawk had deserved the chance to start a family and she'd been deemed capable enough to survive on her own in the wild by a wildlife rehabilitator. Tsuki was currently their only pet "It'd have to be young enough to grow up to see birds as family instead of food though"

Saguru barked out a laugh "A kitten would be nice" They didn't need as much attention as dogs but were free roaming "I'll think about it"

"You could make it favour you so that Kaito will always be second best in it's eyes" Shinichi added, thinking that the idea of Saguru getting a kitten would be perfect. The last time Kaito had been gone so long, the magician had been kidnapped and experimented on. This would be the first time since then that they'd be separated for months.

"No!" Kaito's tone was panicked, but he had an amused gleam in his eye.

"Maybe" The blond breathed "I'll feed it canned tuna often and maybe some sardines" He smirked at how Kaito visibly shivered at his words "It's name could be Fishington the Fishy"

"That makes absolutely no sense!" Kaito squeaked, horrified at the thought.

Gold softened as Saguru took Kaito's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze "I know" He breathed "I would never do that to you Dove" A bit of teasing was fine, so long as it didn't escalate enough to actually terrify the other "I'm going to miss you"

Heartbeat calming, Kaito swallowed "Same" He was going to miss joking and teasing the blond.

Shinichi politely looked away as the two kissed and hugged each other, understanding that they needed to do this. He gave them a few minutes before disturbing them "We should carry on" They shouldn't attract too much attention before the mission.

"Oh" Saguru's cheeks pinked "Yes" he coughed awkwardly, gold glancing around to see that a little girl had been watching them. The girl grinned then ran off towards a couple, probably her parents.

Indigos gleamed at the blond's flustered face "Shinichi's right" He liked having that effect on the other. He hooked his arm around Saguru's, cocking his head and brandishing a smile "Walk me there?"

"I'd love to" Saguru replied, the more time he spent with Kaito, the better.

Me: So they're going their separate ways~

What could possibly go wrong? ^_^

Hope you enjoyed~

•~• I once tried to make choco milk with hot choco powder... it didn't work so I figured that heat was required for it to mix...

I heated the mixture up since I couldn't separate it, and it bubbled over •3•

I also once tried to make hot choco with chocolate milk powder... it didn't taste good
