A week after..

"KEEERRRROOOOOOO!!!!" Sakura yelled from outside the bathroom door, pounding with all her might. "Syaoran is gonna be here any minute now for our first DATE! I need to get READY!!!!"

Receiving no answer, Sakura pounded harder, her fists beginning to turn red.

"KEEEEEeeeeeRRRRrrrOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"

(Inside the bathroom, the tub was overflowing, spilling bubbles and water all over the tile floor. In the middle of the huge tub bobbed the beaten form of a small rubber ducky, bandaged in several places with half its head caved in. )

"KERO!!" Sakura shouted again, sweat-dropping as she remembered what had happened last time he had done this. Finally she used all her might to kick open, tired of waiting for the midget to answer.

Sakura groaned as she saw the tub overflowing again, spreading bubbles like snow around the whole bathroom. Just then someone walked in, bumping into Sakura on accident.

"OW!" The brunette shrieked, quieting down as she realized it was Syaoran who had walked in. He seemed a bit flustered.

"Sorry Sakura.. I rang the doorbell a couple times, but no one answered so I came in to check on you.. and.."

"No, I'm sorry Syaoran, it's my fault. I'm not even ready though. Kero locked me out of the bathroom again."

Syaoran looked around silently, his eyebrows raised dramatically as he took in the rubber ducky and the bubbles. "Um... Sakura? Where exactly IS Kero?"

"MR. DUCKY!!!!!!!!!" The guardian beast suddenly shouted from the tub, jumping out from a mountain of bubbles. Sakura shrieked, slipping and falling backwards against Syaoran, which landed both of them on the tile floor, Sakura on top of Syaoran.

Three things happened all at once, in this exact order:

Syaoran tries to get up and accidentally kisses Sakura at the same time.

Kero accidentally swallows a mouthful of water

Laughs erupt from the doorway of the bathroom

"THIS is going to make a GREAT tape!" Tomoyo shouts, circling the dazed and aching pair.

"You two certainly have strange first dates!" Eriol agrees, smiling evilly down at the two as they turn red.

"WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO YOU TWO!?" Sakura cried, getting up and glaring at her best friend.

"And how come you guys are here anyway?" Syoran asked, still blushing.

Kero finished choking up water, flying over to Tomoyo and crossing his small arms.

"OK kid, I did my part... where's the pay?"

Eriol grinned, holding out the packet of homebaked cookies as Syoran and Sakura stared, open-mouthed.

"Nice work Kero.. here you go."

"TRAITOR!!!" Sakura shrieked, smacking Kero with a bar of soap. The others just watched as Sakura chased him around the bathroom, throwing shampoo bottles and toothbrushes.

* * * * * *

THE END

Well.. Ok, Sakura and Syaoran eventually go out to dinner and have a great date, but that's after they lock Kero away and tie Eriol and Tomoyo to a tree. Oh, and they never let Kero touch beer again ^.^

Yue: Hey, don't I get a thank you for catching Kero while he was drunk?? You didn't say ANYTHING about that!

Me: Well. um. ^_^; yeah, ok, they thanked Yue as well!

Sakura: And what about the tape? Why didn't me and Syaoran get to tear up the tape!?!?!

Syaoran: YEAH!!

^.^; um. ~small voice~ because they keep the videos and later use them for blackmail purposes?

Sakura: GET HER!!!!!!

(ducks flying trashcans) OK, THAT'S IT FOR NOW FOLKS! If anyone wants to carry on where I left off or rewrite this just go ahead cuz I know I'm a terrible author! (ducks a flying cow) JUST LET ME READ IT! ^.^

Ciao peeps and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Kero: And remember, if you're driving don't drink, and if you're drinking, don't drive.

~twitch~ So says Mr. Ducky...
