-----------------
Nakamori Aoko sighed as she wiped some sweat on her brow, she pondered why she was cleaning kitchen, the Kuroba's kitchen no less.
Ah yes, now I remember! Kaito was doing that stupid puppy dog eyes. Saying his mother left for a week and she wanted the house clean when she comes back…
"Bakaito…" Aoko muttered as she scrubbed the kitchen floor clean. And just upstairs one Kuroba Kaito sneezed.
"I wonder who's sniff talking about sniff me…" mused Kaito to himself. He was wearing his casual clothes under an apron, with yellow rubber gloves on his hands.
He finished with the dusty rooms so what was left was the bathroom. No biggie… he could do it and after that he can relax since he tricked Aoko into doing half the chores.
Back downstairs Nakamori Aoko sighed as she admired the spotless kitchen floor. She had just finished her part of the chores-which Kaito had tricked her into doing- and now she was headed upstairs to check on how Kaito was doing.
She found him inside the bathroom, an empty blue pale waiting to be filled with water, detergent and a floor brush. He was going to start cleaning the bathroom. Aoko smiled when he peek towards her way.
Kaito started to fill his bucket with water in the bathtub. His hands turned the knob of the faucet on and cold water rushed out. It was like a mini-waterfall. He grinned.
The bucket was almost full when Kaito turned the knob again to turn it off…only it didn't turn off, the water rushed out more rapidly.
Not letting his cool slip, Kaito turned the knob the other way but to his dismay nothing happened. He turned the other knob, he knew it was a mistake as the water triple its volume.
Kaito's eyes widened but he still acted cool and calm, the bucket was already overflowing however the water was still rushing out. Poker Face was slipping away. But the young magician did not loose hope, he again turned the knobs but it either stayed as it is or increased in water output.
Hope seemed to be fictional.
"Aoko..." Kaito squeaked out.
"Yea?"
"Help…" Kaito squeaked out again as he pointed to the tub, Aoko hurriedly dash to his side and saw the overflowing bucket and rapidly filling tub.
"What happened?" Aoko asked as she tried to turn the water off, with no such luck.
"It won't close." Aoko saw the rapidly rising water and bit her lip.
"Kaito Baka! Pull the plug of the tub!"
Kaito hurriedly put the bucket out of the tub and his hands grasped at the sunken chain of the plug and he pulled…
And pulled.
And still pulled.
And pulled harder.
Then the chain came of as Kaito fell on his bottom. The tub was filling with a lot of water every second. Aoko panicked, she went into the knee-deep water and positioned her fingers around the rubber plug and pulled.
Aoko accomplished two things with her little antic; a) was she managed to unplug the tub and b) she managed to kiss to tub, floor to face. And now she was drowning, in a tub!
Kaito quickly pulled her up, holding her by her elbows. She emerged the tub coughing and gasping for air. Whoever thought of a sixteen year old drowning in a tub without attempting suicide?
Kaito hurriedly took a towel from the rack and handed it to Aoko who dried herself.
"Look on the bright side Aoko…" Aoko shot Kaito an incredulous look silently asking what the bright side was. Kaito grinned sheepishly "At least you weren't wearing a white shirt and you manage to unplug it!" Aoko twitched.
How she wished she could have a mop right now, even for just a minute…just so she can knock some sense into her companion, I managed to almost drown myself, in a tub no less! And he wants me to think of the bright side?! Aoko gritted her teeth as she tried to calm down, her cerulean eyes scanned the bathroom and saw a large looking toothbrush, she guessed it was one of those toilet brushes. Oh what the heck, Aoko reached for the large toothbrush look-a-like and gave Kaito a chase.
A very wet chase, considering she was still dripping wet.
