“Wasn’t exactly handcuffs that I was worried about…”
It was a silly paranoia, really. He was more worried about the possibility of being unmasked more than being physically captured. Even if Hakuba knew the thief was his classmate, and wasn’t likely to do anything like that outside of a heist, …if he would even do it then…, Kid couldn’t help but be wary. He held the detective in high regard, but the caution that had built up wasn’t going to disappear anytime soon.
“…But thank you. I think I will stay.”
He smiled at the other a moment before before he shifted, moving his arms back to lean on as he closed his eyes.
“And it’s not like a thief has many people he can tell, so no worries about that, tantei-san.~”
“Again, it’s appreciated, regardless.” Hakuba laughed, voice still nervous in tone as he sat up again. It wasn’t as though he mistrusted the thief, either, but as flirtatious as they were, there had never really been any sort of define the relationship discussion.
He reached for the duvet at the end of the bed, exposing his naked back briefly, then dragged it around himself to preserve some sense of modesty as he slipped from the bed, heading for the closet.
“Now be a gentleman and turn around."
