Though he wasn’t as surprised by his counterpart’s actions as he would’ve been a few months back, the gentle kiss was still enough to stun him for a few moments, cheeks tainted a faint pink.
And then he blinked, attention turning towards the bag held out before him. A grin almost instantly spread across his lips and he laughed brightly, reaching out to take the rather unexpected gift. Hey, it wasn’t exactly every day he got a Christmas present from a parallel version of himself.
“You really know how to make a guy’s day,” Kaito snickered, gaze darting up to meet the thief’s own. Something playful and mischievous flickered across his face and before the other male could decide to leave, he swiftly moved to close the small distance between them, leaning in to capture his other self’s lips in a kiss, warm and gentle and just a few moments longer than usual, before pulling back, grinning.
“Thank you~”
“I’m not sure it really counts as a return ‘gift’,” Kaito laughed. “But you’re very welcome either way. At least it looks like you liked it~”
And he couldn’t help but throw his duplicate a playful wink, eyes resting on the faint flush on the thief’s face. Then again, he supposed he was hardly one to talk, but. Well. Still. How could he possibly pass up an opportunity to tease his other self?
“I still think I should find you a real gift, though.” He grinned, one hand settling on his hip, the other curling around the bag of chocolate. “Anything in particular you want?”
Kid’s smile grew a touch wider at the wink. Really, teasing just might be the end of them both, the way it tended to go… Yes. The kiss was liked. Possibly just a bit more than it should have been. However… that alone didn’t completely make up the gift the thief had mentioned. Was okay that the magician had only put his words to the action, though.
At the question, Kid tilted his head in thought, looking off to the side briefly before shaking his head.
"Nothing really comes to mind…”
The thief looked back at his counterpart and smirked, arms slipping around behind his back as he leaned forward.
“So why not surprise me, magician-san?~”
