"Ladies and gentlemen! I bring you a marvelous illusions to make your night shine! What miracle awaits under moonlight tonight tonight!"

""Another Kaitou Kid notice set for tonight. His target: The Blue Birthday, India's biggest sapphire! The sleep- deprived Inspector Nakamori forces his eyes open to declare his upcoming victory."" The young Kuroba read on his phone.

(Y/N) watched the brunette read out loud as she leans on his desk. Not caring that she wasn't in her homeroom. Or how close she was to the male next to her. Reading the article as well.

Kaito chuckles and his tablet was imminently taken by Aoko. "Hey!" He yelled, but shuts up after seeing Aoko's enraged face. "To hell with Kid, to hell with phantom thieves! It's driving me crazy!" The daughter of the Inspector screamed in Kaito's face.

(Y/N) didn't mind the sudden burst of anger from Aoko. She was pretty much used to it. "A-Aoko." Kaito said, frightened by her tone. (Y/N) would of laughed at Kaito, but doesn't. Knowing that if she did laugh it wouldn't help at all.

"This is the six time this month. Dad hasn't gotten a good night sleep in a week!" Aoko huffs, Kaito grins and leans on one of his hands.
"Then you should probably tell that dumb gumshoe detective to give up and go home.." (Y/N) lifts up her hand and harshly pats the male brunettes hair to shut him up.

Kaito winced at the hand movement. Watching the older female teen take Kaito's tablet from the younger female. Putting the tablet on his desk, he smiles at her in thanks.

"It's not fair, even though it's my birthday. Dad only has eyes for Kid." Aoko turns her nose at the name of Kid. "Y-Your birthday!" Kaito gets out of his seat, standing in front of Aoko. "You can't be turning 17, can you?!" Kaito states with wide indigo, blue eyes. "Why wouldn't I be? We're second years, after all," Aoko huffed.

"But your chest.. Your hips.. Your butt..." Kaito inspected Aoko, then puts a hand on her shoulder. A unreadable look on his face.

"Aoko, don't tell me..."

"Wh-What?"

"You're not really a boy, are you?"

Faster than you can say "ouch!" The female takes a desk and throws it at Kaito. "Your such an ass.." Aoko replies, seeing Kaito pain induced body on the floor over a bunch of desks. Quietly, (Y/N) gives Kaito her hand to help up.

"Have it your way. It's not like you were invited to my birthday party anyway. Only (Y/N)-San, not you." The female turns from the male Kuroba and female (L/N). "Oh, you're having a birthday party?" Kaito asked, rubbing the back of his head in pain. (Y/N) let's go of Kaitos other hand and stuffed both of her hands in her long skirts pocket.

"Say no more. I've got a little job tonight-" The male remembers his words and says it differently. "I mean.. an errand to run-- so I might be a little late, but you can count me in!"

"If you're busy, just forget it."

"Don't you worry, I'll put a smile on your face tonight! With the magic show of a life time." Kaito takes out a blue candle stick from his shirt pocket. And lights it with the snap of his fingers. Some of their classmates look at what might the magician may do.

"Three, two, one."

Aoko blew out the small candle, "Kaito.." Said boy takes the candle in his hands and turned it into a blue flower. "Here." He hands it to her, "thank you!" The daughter of the Inspector told him. She awe's at the little flower in her hand.

"That's a promise."

"You know it! So what kind of present can I get you?" The male questions, (Y/N) also wanted to know what the young female wanted. "Good question..." Aoko thinks for a minute. A idea came into her head as she tells Kaito what she wants.

"Kaitou Kid!"

The two childhood friends flat out freeze at her wish. "What do you say to catching Kid for me?" Kaito sweats at her request, laughing it off. 'That's not gonna fly..'

Aoko turns her attention to (Y/N). "What are you gonna get me (Y/N)-Senpai?" The h/c girl shrugs, "you'll have to wait and see." (Y/N) hesitantly winks, then leaving the classroom before class starts.

___________________________________________

"Hey (L/N)-San." A school friend of her's said. (Y/N) looks up to see a young male in black uniform. He had light brown hair and a nice shade of brown eyes that could look gold sometimes. He was fairly attractive for a third-year.

The male sat in front of her seat. "Hey, Hoshimiya-San." The girl yawns, stretching her back and arm muscles. The light haired brunette chuckles at the girl. "Sorry to wake you."

"It's fine.."

The female opens and closed her eyes to get the sleepiness out. But then remembers something. "Hey Hoshimiya-San..?" "Huh?" The boy asked,"what is it?" Leaning against her chair, (Y/N) stared at the male. "What does a girl like?"

The male blinks in confusion. "Eh?"

Putting her hands behind her head. She inputs a little more detail. "My friend, Aoko. She's having a birthday party tonight. But I don't know what to get her." Sitting up from her leaning position. (Y/N) crosses one of her legs on the other.

"Hmm.." The male thinks, scratching the back of his his head. "I think my little sister said something about going to a birthday party.. She never told me what she got for her friend though."

The h/c girl sigh's in shame. "You're her friend (L/N)-San. I'm sure she will like whatever you get her." Hoshimiya reassures tries to cheer up the female (L/N).

"..."

Hoshimiya lightly smiled at her, even if the girl wasn't in the best mood. "Why don't you get her a bracelet. My younger sister loves stuff like that. So try that?" The girls eyes widen at Hoshimiya idea. "You're right." (Y/N) said, her voice a bit (barely) chippy at the light brunette.

"Thanks, Hoshimiya-San."

"No problem, (L/N)-San."

"....."

The boy was greeted with silence. Sayo turns face forward instead of facing her like earlier. Guessing that she didn't want to converse with him anymore. Getting up from her seat, (Y/N) stood in front of the male.

"Here." She puts down a small piece of paper on his desk. "Thanks again, Sayo-San. I'll let you know later on how she liked it." (Y/N) said greatfully, going back to her desk before third period starts. The light haired brunette stares at the little slip of paper on his desk. He takes the paper and puts it in his pocket.

Hopeful that the females friend will like (Y/N)'s present.

___________________________________________

After the school day finished. The three childhood friends met by Aoko's locker to leave together. (Y/N) looks through her phone as she heard Aoko continue the conversation they had before in the morning.

"I wonder.." Aoko sighs. (Y/N) looks up from her phone to look at the female. "About..?" The girl opened up her locker door, as Kaito listened to what she was going to say.

"I wonder why Kaitou Kid is pulling off all these heists. He goes through so much trouble to steal stuff. Only to return them or abondan them or return them in secret. I can't speak if he is the world's greatest phantom thief, but it seems he just does it for kicks! That's gotta be it. He wants to make Dad out to be some bumbling fool!"

The female slammed her lockers door harshly. Putting on her normal shoes.
Kaito puts on his shoes on too, "you shouldn't take it so seriously! He's just some two-bit crook." He tries to reason with Aoko.

Small tears creep into Aoko's blue eyes. "It's just cruel! He just sits back and laughs while my Dad tries his hardest. It's unforgivable!"

(Y/N) drops her phone in her pocket and puts a comforting hand on the sadden girls shoulder. "Aoko-Chan." (Y/N) said calmly so the other girl would too calm down.

The teary eyed Aoko steps back from her friends and runs to a girl with brown pigtails that already walked past them. (Y/N) drops her outstretched hand, letting it fall limp to her side.

"Aoko.."

Kaito said quietly, starring at the girls retreating figure.

(Y/N) let's out a simple sigh, though Kaito knew it was filled with bitterness. "She just needs a bit of space, Kaito. She'll be fine. I'll see you at the party." The h/c-nette stated, patting his back, she left without a word.

___________________________________________

(Y/N) turns back on the lights after her friend Aoko blew out her candles on the creamy white birthday cake. "Happy birthday, Aoko!" All the girls in the room said. Not a single guy there. "Thank you everyone!"

(Y/N) sits back down besides Aoko. Hearing the numours girls quickly chat and eat with the birthday girl and other guests. "So, where's (Y/N)-Senpai's Darling?" Keiko, the girl with brown pigtails from before, asks Aoko.

" "D-Darling" " The birthday says surprisingly. "I mean Kaito-Kun of course." Keiko reiterates. (Y/N) munched on the slice of cake she got and didn't answer. "Keiko-Chan, don't ask stuff like that! How do you know that (Y/N)-San could of already gotten a boyfriend?" Aoko answers for the female.

"Kaito-Kun, is a twerp. How could he supposedly become (Y/N)-Chan's Darling!" Aoko retorts. "Well, you did invite him.. Knowing Kaito-Kun, he'll probably appear out of nowhere and surprise us. "

(Y/N) agreed with Keiko on that. But the question before.. She puts it in the back of her head for now. The rest of the night went off nicely. Not a single dull mood in the air, even (Y/N) seemed a bit happy after giving Aoko her present. She was glad to know her childhood friend loved her present.

She's gonna have to text Hoshimiya the news after the party.

After some time passed, Aoko was saying goodbye to her acquaintances and school friends. (Y/N) decided to stay a little longer with the female. Aoko said it was okay if she wanted to leave. But replied with: "it's okay. I don't mind waiting for Kaito."

(Y/N) wanted to see Kaito's "magic show of a lifetime". Even if he was late. The two sat together on Aoko's bed, the darkness in the room closing in on the room. Though neither moved to turn the lights on.

It was now midnight, still no sign of the male they were waiting for. Aoko patience was growing thin by the second. Breaking like a twig, the girl's tears fell from her eyes. (Y/N) puts a hand of comfort on Aoko back. Whispering apologies, looking at her feet.

A small jingle of bells came out of nowhere, along with a small bright light. (Y/N) and Aoko both see the teary eyed girls phone ring. Aoko grabs her phone, she checks the ID caller to know who it was. It read "Kuroba Kaito"

Answering the call, she gave a monotone, "hello." The phone was loud enough for the h/c to hear as well. "Ah, I'm really sorry, Aoko!" The two hear Kaito say. Aoko lowers her head. "I don't think I can make it before midnight!"

"Why... Why didn't you come? Do you have any idea how long I waited for you?! And you... You... Your the worst! I hate you Kaito!" (Y/N) could almost hear the male wince at the end of the line.

"You don't have to be so upset." He tries to reason. "Of course I'm upset! You said you'd make me smile with a magic show of a life time! You're a big fat liar, Kaito!" (Y/N) waits for Kaito to respond, trying to be patient. "I wasn't lying." The male states seriously.

"Huh?"

"Just look outside the window." Now the two were confused at his request. "Look out my window?" Aoko questions him even more, though he said: "You wanna know? Well, I thought I'd surprise you and (Y/N), so I.." He cuts himself off before he could say word.

"Just look, but you better hurry Aoko!" Kaito said hurriedly.

(Y/N) gets up and takes Aoko hand. Rushing too the window, (Y/N) tells Aoko to open the curtains. She hesitantly pulls them away, only to gasp quietly at the bright, colorful sight of fire works and giant letters on a display screen showing. "Happy birthday Aoko!"

"It's beautiful!"

Kaito's voice was again heard on the line. "This display is my present to you. Happy birthday Aoko!"

Aoko stared at the sight joyfully, while (Y/N) smiles proudly. "You did good, Kaito." The e/c eye female whispers under her breath. Still on the other end, Kaito smiles at her voice, starring at the moon above him. 'I know.. (Y/N)-San.'
