Hello again! So, boredom it seems, is a thing of traveling at five in the morning for a school art excursion. So, I've taken to publishing stories. Anyway I hope everyone enjoys!

Shinichi stared at his neck in the mirror. At first he'd thought it had been a bug bite, until he'd seen a second mark when he'd tugged the collar of his sweater down. He wouldn't put it passed Kaito to pull a prank, but the way his neck was throbbing told him it probably wasn't.

"Shinichi?" A question came from the bathroom door. Fixing the collar, he turned and faced his boyfriend. He gave him a smile before wrapping the magician in a brief hug, giving him a kiss on the cheek before tugging him downstairs.

"Shinichi, what's wrong? You're only overly affectionate when something's bothering you." Kaito pulled them to a stop, forcing Shinichi to face him. Shinichi fidgeted for a second, Kaito had introduced him to Akako, so he'd seen the proof of magic existing, but he'd never thought that'd affect him personally. Why he'd ever believed that was beyond himself, he'd been shrunk down into a child, was dating a phantom thief, took down a syndicate, was stalked by death, but nope, life couldn't stop there. It just had to throw something from the supernatural at him.

"It's nothing, just feeling a bit under the weather." Shinichi deflected, waving off Kaito's concerned gaze. The magician frowned but didn't push it, if Shinichi didn't want to tell him and Kaito pried, he'd just clam up more.

"Well, alright, but if you don't want me to pry, you better tell me soon." Kaito sung as he walked passed, grabbing the breakfast he'd prepared and sat down to eat. Shinichi sent him a fond smile before joining him.

"So, do you have any work for the next say, forty eight hours?" Kaito asked, fidgeting the slightest. Shinichi raised an eyebrow at his behaviour while he racked his brain for anything.

"I've got to drop off those completed cases, then I'm only working on some cold cases, so unless I get called in for work, I don't think I've got anything else on. Why?" Shinichi replied, tilting his head to the side as he tried to figure out what had Kaito so nervous. Kaito's grin was almost blinding as he took in what Shinichi had said.

"Ah, I just... well you've been so busy with your cases, and me with my heists, we haven't been on a date in a while, so I was hoping we could go out together?" Kaito inquired, giving Shinichi his hopeful puppy eyed look. Shinichi melted in the face of it, he reached over the table to grasp Kaito's had, giving it a gentle squeeze before smiling.

"Sure, why not." Shinichi felt himself grinning back at the magician who'd bounced up and gave the detective a hug, nuzzling into his neck. Shinichi tried to stop himself from tensing when Kaito nuzzled against the wounds on his neck.

"Shinichi?" Kaito asked, when he noticed his detective go still.

"Never you mind. What did you have in mind?" Shinichi diverted his thief's attention by pressing a kiss to his temple. The bite on his neck seemed to throb insistently for a moment before fading.

"Well, I was thinking-"

Shinichi panted for breath as he leant against the bus shelter. How'd the day turn to crap so quickly? In the morning he and Kaito had planned to meet up for a date for lunch till evening, but before he'd even gotten to lunch he'd dropped off his case files. Then on his way to lunch, he'd run into a murder, forcing him to send a quick text to Kaito to tell him he'd be a bit late. Then he'd had to send another text saying he'd cancel and just meet him for dinner when another case had popped up. Remembering Kaito's blinding smile this morning made a heavy weight make a home in his mind. He'd make it up to him, he'd make sure of it. Now that he'd cleared up all the cases he was trying to make his way to their dinner reservation. He was already an hour late, and it was bucketing down raining, messing up the clothes he'd been planning on wearing to dinner.

"Shinichi!" At the sound of his name, Shinichi snapped his head up and peered into the sheets rain, trying to make out the figure racing towards him with an umbrella. He felt a dry sob escape him at the sight of his boyfriend. He deserved so much better then what he was doing, but at the same time, he couldn't bring himself to give the moonlight thief up. Shinichi raced out to meet the violet eyed brunette, meeting him halfway.

"I'm so sorry Kaito, I'll make it up to you, I-" Shinichi's ramblings were cut off by the press of those soft lips he adored onto his own, his hands instinctively gripping Kaito's waist. Reluctantly, Kaito pulled away, both of their faces flushed.

"It's okay. You tried to make it, I know you did. Maybe next time." Kaito whispered breathlessly, Shinichi nodded numbly and rested his forehead against Kaito's shoulder. He ignored the whispers back in his mind that there was a convenient source of revitalisation close by. The whispers had also made his life hell, helpfully reminding him that there was blood at crime scenes too. After he'd heard that first whisper, making him jump much to the confusion of Division One, he'd known right away that he was becoming a vampire. It wasn't a thought he would've acknowledged or even thought about before meeting Kaito and the red witch Akako.

"Hey, you think we can head home and have a home cooked dinner with a movie night? We can watch those thief movies you wanted to watch." Shinichi murmured into Kaito's ear. He felt Kaito nod, and he lifted his head, giving Kaito a brief peck. They made their way home, hand in hand.

By the time they had made it back to the Kudo manor it was passed nine. The rain outside had turned torrential, and lightning was streaking across the sky.

"I'll go make sure everything's locked up, you can start eating if you want to." Shinichi called as he disappeared further into the house. Kaito called back an affirmative before unpacking the take away they'd ended up buying. He was grateful that they had now, this was no weather to try and cook elaborate food. Kaito sighed, hand absentmindedly brushing over the bulge in his pocket. It would have to wait until they were both free again, and he'd have to make sure nothing interrupted the evening.

By the time Shinichi was done making sure every window was closed and locked, the same with any doors that led outside, Kaito had everything set up for them to eat while watching the movies. Shinichi grabbed his portion of the food and settled onto the couch, tugging Kaito to his side. He ignored the fact that the food wasn't as filling as it should have been, and the fact that those whispers were getting louder. His teeth were also aching, to the point it was putting him off food.

At some point between the second and third movie, the storm had passed and Shinichi had slung his arm around Kaito's shoulders. By a quarter of the way into the third movie, Shinichi couldn't ignore the whispers, and he stopped paying attention to the movies. All of his senses trained into Kaito, his pulse, his breathing, his gaze, everything.

"Kaito, we need to talk." Shinichi began, which had Kaito reaching for the remote and pausing the movie. He twisted to face his detective, worry contorting his body language. It was only here, when it was just the two of them, that Kaito would drop all his masks.

"This morning... it'd be better if I just show you." Shinichi sighed, tugging at his collar to show Kaito, whose eyes widened. His gaze flickered between Shinichi's neck and eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me?!" Kaito growled, reaching forward to run his fingers gently over the bite. Shinichi shuddered at the gentle touch, he opened his mouth to respond only to close it.

"Let me see," Kaito ordered, gripping Shinichi's jaw. Reluctantly, Shinichi opened his mouth, showing off two particularly white and sharp incisors. The thief's eyes narrowed at the sight before letting out a sigh.

"You should have let me know sooner. I'll give Akako a call, see if she knows anything." Kaito sighed, fishing his phone out of his pocket.

"Would she even be up at this hour?" Shinichi asked, nuzzling Kaito's cheek out of a sudden urge to. He gave small smile when he felt Kaito's pulse jump at the contact.

"This is the witching hour, she'll be up alright." Kaito grumbled, finding her contact and dialing. They waited for a few precious moments as the phone rang.

"What do I owe the pleasure Kuroba-kun?" The witch inquired, her ever so mocking tone coming through.

"Shinichi's turning into a vampire, or at least I think so. You wouldn't happen to know anything would you?" Kaito accused, this only happened after he'd introduced them, he should have known introducing his detective to the witch was a bad idea. There was a tell tale pause.

"What would you do if I said yes?" She inquired, teasing all but gone.

"I'd get you to tell me how to reverse it." Kaito answered immediately, no hesitation.

"How long has it been since he began showing signs?" Akako changed the subject, Kaito's eyes narrowed, something was definitely up. He cut a glance to Shinichi who seemed to think about the question.

"I only found the bite this morning, it could've been anytime since yesterday night, or early morning today." Shinichi determined, hinting it over. Over the phone there was a sharp breath.

"He'll be getting hunger pains soon, if not already having them." Akako informed, which had Kaito raising an eyebrow.

"You still haven't told us how to reverse it." Kaito stated, bringing the topic back to what he really wanted to know.

"I'm sorry to say Kuroba-kun, but you can't reverse it. He has died and been brought back as an immortal. He may have a pulse, but if you even try to reverse it, he'll die." Kaito's grip on the phone slipped and it dropped to the floor. He looked over at Shinichi who was watching him with a concerned gaze. Quickly snapping himself out of it, Kaito snatched the phone up again.

"Why did you do this?" Because there could be no other person who could turn Shinichi into a vampire, or anyone who would know of vampires to contact to turn someone.

"I did this for you. You'll thank me one day, until then, you need to feed him before he starves." Akako answered before promptly hanging up. Kaito frowned a the phone before carefully controlling the urge to throw it, and placing it onto the coffee table in front of him. He glanced at Shinichi who was watching him with a concerned gaze, with a subtle hint of fear.

"What's wrong?" Kaito asked, sliding up next to him, nudging his way under Shinichi's arms. There was a hitch in Shinichi's breath, and his eyes dilated before giving off a subtle glow, enhancing the azure they normally were. Kaito's breath hitched at the beautiful sight.

"I'm, not human anymore, and she said there's no way to reverse it... are you sure you-" Shinichi cut himself off with a sigh, he hated how he found it hard to express himself. Kaito frowned, then his eyes widened.

"Of course I still want you, why wouldn't I? Just because you've had a species change doesn't change who you are. If anything, we have a few more spicier things to do in bed~" Kaito leered, he counted it as a win when Shinichi huffed a laugh. Kaito mentally frowned when he noticed Shinichi was very carefully avoiding doing anything more than an arm around his shoulders. His eyes widened when he realised Akako had said he'd be starving by now, and if the vampire tales were true, he'd be starving for blood.

"Ne, Shinichi how about we go upstairs?" Kaito asked, standing up to close all the curtains in the house. Shinichi stiffened and opened his mouth to make an excuse to not go.

"Don't even think about it, if I have to, I will force you. I'm not losing you." Kaito growled from where he was standing. Shinichi sighed, and stood up to help close all the curtains. If the sunlight thing was true, it would be a rude awakening.

As they finished closing the curtains, they met up outside Shinichi's bedroom. Kaito gently gripped Shinichi's hand, feeling the familiar rough callouses and the new longer, sharper nails. He gave a soft smile to Shinichi before tugging him into the room.

And that was was an awkward place to leave off wasn't it? I couldn't find a way to end it better, but I'll hopefully have the next chapter up soon. This is most likely to be a three-shot. I hope everyone enjoyed, and please, send me a review to tell me what you think! Love ShySecret-chan~
