Sakura yawned and got out of bed, stretching a bit before groggily walking over to the bathroom door. She pulled it open at the same time Xiaolong pulled it open from the other side. They both stood there glaring at each other before both their eyes darted towards the sink and back to glare at the other face.

The next second...

Both stood in front of the sink pushing the other's face away, screaming "me first" with each push.

"Quit acting childish! Be a gentlemen!" Screamed Sakura, trying to grab her toothbrush.

"Alright alright," sighed the handsome man, taking a step back. Suddenly he smirked. "Little cry babies first," he offered mockingly, gesturing towards the sink before turning around and walking out cackling.

Sakura's eye twitched and she grabbed a random toothbrush and threw at the young man, but he managed to close the door before it reached him. It fell to the ground with a small clatter, making Xiaolong cackle louder.

"Arghhhhhh," growled the emerald-eyed girl as she forcefully began to brush her teeth.

-At Breakfast-

Sakura walked into the dining room and found that the table was already set with mouth-watering fruits, pancakes, waffles and three kinds of cereal.

(A/N: I know this is Hong Kong here but how am I supposed to know what they eat for breakfast O.o? )

~Upon Entering Sakura's Mind~

=Grrrr...He's sitting in Syaoran's seat=
=Now now calm down. This is his house not yours=
=It's Syaoran's house!=
=It's both their houses and not a bit yours=
=You must treat him with respect=
=Yes you don't want to get kicked out do you=
=He wouldn't dare=
=Or would he=
=No...Syaoran would murder him=
=Are you sure he'd pick his fiancée over a blood relative he's been living with for sometimes now=
=Yes I'm sure...Anyone would. Blood relatives tend to annoy the crap out of you=
=Are you sure?=
=Shut up!=
=NARG! Xiaolong is staring at me like I'm crazy=
=Maybe you are=
=Shut up=

"What was that?" Smirked the man at the table. "Arguing with the little voices in your head? Is that why the words 'shut up' passed through your lips in a little hiss."

=Control your anger...=
=Yes...Deep breaths...=
=That's right=

Ignoring her fiancée's brother, Sakura chose a random seat that kept her far enough not to strangle him, yet close enough since all the food was piled near him.

She picked up a plate and forked a pancake onto it, before scanning the table for the syrup. Great...It was on the other side next to his right hand.

"Would you please pass the syrup," she managed without any sign of irritation.

Xiaolong looked up from munching on his waffle.

"Youwe qui..e caale o geiing i youwthel," he said, his mouth full.

Sakura: -_-
Xiaolong: *Chewing*

"Hasn't anyone taught you to chew and swallow before attempting to speak?"

The man chewed exaggeratingly, and swallowed with a big gulp.

"There! Happy?"

"Quite. Now would you please pass the syrup," she asked again.

"As I was saying...You're quite capable of getting it yourself."

Sakura was about to open her mouth and give him a piece of her mind before she realized what he meant. There was another bottle of syrup practically under her nose.

Grumbling something about her stupidity, she reached for it and began pouring some onto her pancake, when...

The top popped off, making a whole lot more come down than she had intended.

Xiaolong burst out laughing, spraying a bit of the water he had in his mouth.

"Alright, that's it," sneered Sakura.

(A/N: Wow...Sakura sneering... ^^; )
