It was the first day of second grade and the Detective Boys parent's wanted to celebrate. Ran called Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya's mom and planed a surprise party for the group over her place. Mrs. Tsuburaya thought this was a great idea and they came up with several plausible plans, the best being a birthday like celebration. At first they didn't know where to find supplies, but Ran remembered that her dad was working on a case near a supplies store and he could get his hands on some. Soon Genta Kojima's mom and Ayumi Yoshida's parents were in on the idea and the plans were made. They didn't have much time to get ready though, as school would be let out in a few hours.

A little later

Well Ran's house was ready for the party, and the adults were psyched, even Kogoro was excited about the prospect. The hard part was getting the kids to come over the Mouri house without arising suspicion. In the end they convinced the kids over the phone that it was part a new assignment for second graders. They knew the kids wouldn't be trilled, but what choice did they have? Surly they would all come running to the house, excitedly. A little later they were proven right. Four kids came running up the stairs and knocked on the door, three of them looking very happy, one not so much.

"Hey guys," Ran said greeting them at the door. "How was your first day back?"

"Good" piped Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi. Conan forced a smile on his lips as a response.

"That's great, now come on inside." Ran replied happily.

"SUPPRISE, HAPPY FIRST DAY BACK AT SCHOOL!!" all the adults shouted happily.

The adults got the reaction they were looking for, all of the kids looked shocked, even, to Rachael's delight, Conan. Soon all the kids were drinking soda and laughing amongst themselves.

"Tell us about your first day back guys," Mr. Kojima asked. All of the kids looked excited, but Genta stared talking first.

"Today was awesome! Our new teacher is super nice, she even gave us candy. You know were in a new wing right? So our lockers are bigger, so I don't need to bend anymore. Our desks are bigger too. The food is also great, I love second grade!"

Mitsuhiko had a good day as well, and was eager to share the news.

"Second grade is a lot of fun; they have a lot of new science and history material. They have more food to go with lunch, and the teacher is nice like George said."

Ayumi also joined in the party. She wasn't as excited though, so she talked slower and calmer.

"It was fun; the teacher was very nice and pretty. It was good to see everyone again."

"What about you Conan," Ran asked causing Mitch and George to laugh. Conan glared at them. If looks could kill, both boys would have been dead on the spot.

"It would have been fun, if I wasn't the height of a kid in pre-school." He muttered quietly. This caught the adults off guard, but before they could say anything, Mitsuhiko and Genta stated laughing again.

"Hey Conan, how was the girls room?" they asked in unison, causing Conan's face to go bright red.

"The girl's room, what were you doing in there?" Mr. Yoshida asked in alarm looking at Conan. Conan did not reply and looked at his feet.

"It wasn't his fault and you guys know it." Ayumi snapped at Mitch and George as they were about to laugh again.

"What happened?" Kogoro asked loudly.

"Dad!" Ran protested, but before she could do anything Conan was already talking

"Bathroom" Conan said in hurry as he ran away as fast as he could.

"What happened anyway Amy, what has Conan so upset?" Mrs. Yoshida asked in alarm looking at the direction where Conan ran off.

"Well you heard Conan complain about how short he was earlier, right? It really got in his way today. He could barley climb into his seat in the classroom, and when he did he couldn't see over his desk. He couldn't reach his locker. He couldn't reach his locker of the water fountain either.

'Ah," Ran and Kogoro replied together, if there as one thing they knew about Conan it was that he was drank a lot of water.

"Mom, remember when Conan came over for dinner and he drank a ton of water?" Ayumi asked as she continued.

"Yes, he said the bubbler at school was broken at school and that he drinks from it several times a day so he was really thirsty. Boy, was he running to the bathroom that day- wait, don't tell me that..."

"Yes," Ayumi said interrupting her mother. "By the time we got to lunch, he was really thirsty! So he drank a lot of water at all at once, so he really had to use the bathroom, only he couldn't reach the handle and stated to panic."

"Hold on a second," Kogoro interrupted. "I know Conan's short, but he's been able to reach door knobs just fine while he's been here."

"The handles up high, and the door was heavy." Genta explained.

"Oh, okay. I could see where that would give him some trouble." Kogoro replied.

"Anyway, I told him to run to the nurse and use the bathroom there. He started to, but then he noticed that the girl's room was a push door, and he could get in, so he ran in a panic to the door. However, he didn't notice it was the bathroom for girls in fifth grade, so when he went in they pushed him out immediately and called for a teacher. Conan was so surprised that he lost control, and everyone laughed." Genta said trying to keep a straight face at the memory

"You guys helped comfort him, right?" Mr. Kojima asked sharply.

"Well I was going to, but the teachers rushed him out when it looked like he was going to cry. Good thing too, crying in front of everyone would have made it a lot worse for him." George said answering his father trying, and not succeeding, to keep a straight face.

"How can you laugh Genta? Did you see how crushed he looked? You always stood up for me when I was the shortest, and now that I'm taller than Conan can't you do the same for him?" Amy demanded

"I will, I was caught off guard is all. Jeez."

"I'll go see if he's okay, the pizza's ready by the way." Ran said as she walked towards the bathroom and noticed that it was empty, she also noticed that door to Conan's room was closed, and she heard the sounds of a small child crying from inside.
