The Water With Soap

"Do you want more cookies?" Tomoyo asked innocently. Eriol, however, wasn't taking it lightly. He took one step toward her.

Tomoyo gave him one glance and ran. He chased her.

"Tomoyo, Eriol, stop this instant!" the teacher growled.

But neither of them listened. Tomoyo was laughing her head off, and Eriol was fuming, "TOMOYO, WHY DID YOU PUT LAXATIVE IN THOSE COOKIES?"

"MISS DAIDOUJII AND MR HIIRAGIZAWA, CAN YOU PLEASE STOP!" the teacher shouted, impatient.

They both stopped automatically.

"Now, for making me say it twice, you BOTH are in detention. I think...yes, scrubbing the cafeteria floor should do it for the whole of lunch."

"NANI?! BUT IT'S HIS/HER FAULT!!" the exclaimed in unison.


"I can't believe I am stuck with the gingerbread man for the whole of lunch..." Tomoyo muttered.

"Oh, it's not the end of the world, Tomoyo..." Sakura said, "you get to spend some real quality time with each other, just like the gaki and I last time," she added sarcastically.

"Very funny, Sakura."

They arrived at the doors of the cafeteria.

"Cheers," and Sakura and Chiharu walked in. Tomoyo followed, and went through the 'Staff Only' door.

"Oh, you must be the other student to help clean the floor here. Here's a mop, bucket with some soapy water and broom. Help yourself," the cafeteria lady said cheerfully and left.

Tomoyo turned around and saw Eriol scrubbing the floor.

"Hmm, maybe I can make him scrub the floor for me..." Tomoyo muttered to herself, "Maybe not..."

Tomoyo sighed. She really didn't want to be a janitor. Maybe she could provoke Eriol...

"Hey Eriol...can you take off your glasses?" Tomoyo asked, "I have never seen you without them, and I am pretty sure you will look really cute without them.." Tomoyo flattered.

"Um...sure..." Eriol let his guard down. He took off his glasses, blushing furiously.

"Hmm..." and Tomoyo raised the bucket of soapy water and spilled it over Eriol.

"Huh? Is it raining? Ow, my eyes sting..wait a minute, I'm BLIND!" Eriol shouted. He put his hands around him and felt around. Then he stood up and ran around, shouting, "I'M BLIND, I'M BLIND!"

Tomoyo was laughing hysterically. This was a classic. Eriol was sooo stupid!

"MUMMY! I AM BLIND. DADDY, I AM BLIND!" Eriol was running around in circles, crying out to each of his family members.

"UNCLE, I AM BLIND! AUNTY, I AM BLIND!"

Tomoyo had stopped laughing, this was going TOO far!

"Um..." and Tomoyo took her bucket, went to the tap, and filled it with crystal clear water. She then spilt it over Eriol's head.

"Huh? Wait a minute, my vision's coming back to me!!" Eriol exclaimed and turned and saw Tomoyo scrubbing the floor.

"er, Tomoyo? I was wondering whether I was...er, running around in circles saying that I was blind?"

no, not at all cough" Tomoyo was trying hard not to burst in giggles.

"Oh...ok then..."

Tomoyo couldn't take it. She had to laugh.

"Um..hehe...hahaha...HAHAHAHAHA."

Eriol stared at Tomoyo. Why was she laughing? Then it hit him.

"It wasn't raining was it? You – you did it!!!" Eriol exclaimed.

"um...no I didn't."

"Yes you did. You had the soapy water, you made me take off my glasses...and then you SPILT THE SOAPY WATER OVER MY HEAD!!"

"NO I DIDN'T!! Do you have evidence? NO YOU DON'T!"

"I DON'T NEED EVIDENCE, THE EVIDENCE IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME!!"

"Not for long, Gingerbreadman," Tomoyo smirked and ran out of the room.

"YOU ARE SOOOO GONE, DAIDOUJII!!" Eriol shouted and chased after her.

Tomoyo ran out of the cafeteria, with a yelling Eriol behind her. It made everyone stare at their retreating backs as they raced out into the hall.

"Hey, wasn't that Tomoyo?" Sakura asked.

"Yeah, and wasn't that Eriol was chasing her?" Chiharu asked.

The girls shook their heads. Tomoyo and Eriol were scrubbing floors, not playing stupid games.


"DAIDOUJII, YOU BETTER GIVE UP!"

"NO WAY!!!"

Eriol had chased Tomoyo out onto the school oval. Tomoyo was doing laps of the oval, with Eriol closely behind.

"Hey Daidoujii, you know, you'll never catch me," Eriol said.

"What? You're the one catching, not me."

"Yeah, I wonder why you don't want to catch...maybe you're a scaredy-cat."

"I AM NOT!" and Tomoyo turned around and chased Eriol.

"HAHAHAHA."

"WHY ARE YOU LAUGHING?" Tomoyo yelled.

"Hey, you'll never catch me."

"Oh yeah?"

"And you wanna know why?"

"Why?"

"Because...because you're a...Barbie!!" Eriol yelled.

"WHAT!?" Tomoyo slowed down and stared at his retreating back, "HEY, THAT'S COPYRIGHT!!"


"Hey Tomoyo," Sakura said cheerfully, "How was lunch?" Tomoyo had trudged back to class, thinking about what Eriol said. A Barbie? Nani?

"Horrible...absolutely horrible..."

"Oh, it cant have been that bad," Chiharu commented.

"Believe me, it was..."

And Tomoyo told them the whole incident.

"A Barbie? Nani!?" the two girls said in unison.

"Don't ask..." and Tomoyo pulled out a list and wrote down some stuff...

After Tomoyo had written down what she was writing, she smiled.

"Wow, we're winning by heaps!!"

"Give us a look...jeez, twice as much as them!!" and Sakura and Tomoyo did a little dance.

"But they're going to pay us back...I mean after all, they are the popular ones..." Chiharu said.

"Well, we'll be ready for it!!" Sakura said confidently.

Tomoyo and Chiharu did a high-five.

"Hey Tomoyo, you know what, we should add your detention with Eriol on that list," Sakura smirked.

"NO I AM NOT!!"

"THEN WHY DID YOU ADD MY DETENTION?"

"BECAUSE..."

"BECAUSE WHAT?" and Sakura grabbed the piece of paper off Tomoyo and quickly wrote something down. Tomoyo didn't want to tell her that she had a part in, not only the detention, the café as well.

"NOOO, SAKURA STOP IT!!"

"Aha, done!!" and Sakura chucked the piece of paper on the ground and sped off.

"Hmmm, WHAT?"
