[snippet] Belling the Kaitou

[ickaimp]

"We'll make great pets!"
Porno For Pyros: Pets

"Well," Kaito waved, casually holding his book bag against his left shoulder blade. "It's been fun. Let's do it tomorrow." The words were meant sarcastically, even if the tone was flippant.

"Why?" Hakuba gave him a puzzled look. "Where are you going?"

"Home." To take a nice long soak in the furo and ponder why today had gone wrong. And get away from everyone. The frequent head pattings were getting on his nerves.

"I thought I had made it clear." Hakuba reached over and messed up his hair again with an apologetic grin. "You're staying at my house."

"Huh?!"

"Oh..." Keiko looked slightly sad at that. "Does that mean that you're missing the Kid heist tomorrow night?"

It took a massive effort not to tense up at that, especially with Hakuba's oh-so-friendly hand still on his head. The Heist! How could he have been so stupid as to forget that?! Stupid stupid stupid... There still had to be a way to pull it off, he just had to figure it out

Akako distracted him by draping herself over his unburdened shoulder, wrapping her arms around him. "Ne, Hakuba-kun..." She purred. "Could you order him to come to my house tonight? We could have... fun."

Kaito glared at Hakuba, silently promising pain beyond imagining if he agreed to her request. Hakuba gave her a friendly smile. "I'm afraid I have other plans for my pet."

She let out a little squeal of delight and squeezed him. "So Cute! Have fun then!" She chirped. "LOTS of fun!"

Kaito wondered if the witch was a pervert. Just what exactly did she mean by 'fun' anyway?

"We will." Hakuba promised, a not-quite smirk on his face.

He wondered what Hakuba meant by that too.

"Well, if you're going there, I'll stop by Kaito's house and let his Mom know." Aoko offered brightly. "And pick up some clothes for him while I'm there."

"Thanks." He muttered even as his mind screamed 'TRAITOR!' Aoko was supposed to be on HIS side, what was she doing helping Hakuba out?! This wasn't fair!

"Bai!!" Aoko waved as Akako slid an arm through hers, the two girls running off and giggling.

Kaito stared after them, feeling his stomach drop somewhere about his feet. Forgetting about the heist, loosing the bet, this just was not his day. This was completely not his day.

Hakuba reached out and playfully tugged on one of the trailing ends of the ribbon around his neck, making the bell jingle. "Coming, pet?" He asked, still looking faintly pleased with himself.

"Yeah." He sighed, following after the taller boy. After all, what else could go wrong?

"Hakuba." Kuroba loomed over the blond's desk, with a distinctly too casual posture. "Would you care to explain why my Mother received a sympathy card yesterday?"

He gazed at the wild haired boy placidly. "I thought it was appropriate." He commented. "Yesterday was your birthday, was it not?"

Kuroba was silent for a moment while Akako and Aoko muffled their laughter in the background. Then the unpredictable magician leaned forward, a dangerous smile on his face before stalking off. "Your birthday is in 2 months. This will be remembered."

Hakuba leaned back in his chair, a small pleased smile gracing his face as he ignored the small twinge of fear at the thought of the upcoming retribution.

But for the moment it felt so good to beat him at his own game.
