Thanks for reviewing, frumouttamimind, KaylaMicael, xBrianna123x, Emmygirl822, dundeegirl21 and Kibalover1998. Here's the next chapter! (Oh, and disclaimer: the video on YouTube called "I Kissed A Warner" is not mine, but the song itself is, apart from a few lines (my song is on here, but someone actually sang it on YouTube).

I think all the Warners saw that I had fallen in love, but none of them really said anything – well, not to me, anyway. But I didn't just go by what they said. I often caught them looking at each other as if to say something, and it was usually after saying something to me. I had been daydreaming a lot recently (mind occasionally, and only occasionally, meeting gutter), and whenever I said "I'm sorry, what was that?" that was when they'd exchange glances. Other times, they'd just look at me in this knowing way, which got on my nerves. That first morning after the makeout, Dot was the first to give me that look, when she carefully swept my hair over to the side of my neck, concealing the hickey from anyone who glanced, looked, or even concentrated on my neck for a time (seriously, who would look at it long enough for that?). I got quite a few more throughout the next few days.

Also, it seemed as if they were doing a disappearing act on me way too often for it to be normal – well, for them. I suspected that their exchanged glances meant something that they wanted to say, but not while I was there. My guess was that they disappeared because they wanted to discuss that. I had more alone time than I ever had in the summer before, and you won't believe this, but I actually missed having them around, annoying me or not.

I really needed to find a way to admit to Yakko that I had fallen in love with him. I mean, if I just admitted it, maybe they'd stop looking at me in that way.

But every way I practised or found on the Internet seemed either corny or just plain weird. Finally, on the fourth day in Salt Lake City, I was searching on YouTube on the computer in the lobby. OK, I was actually trying to work out why the Warners had annoyed me so much, since, even though they hadn't really changed much, I didn't feel annoyed by them. That was when I came across a video called "I Kissed A Warner". It intrigued me, so I clicked.

The video title read "I KISSED A WARNER!" and below "Yakko Warner, to be exact : P."

I don't know, I just felt jealous at that, but as the music to Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl" played and a voice sang the words appearing on the screen, I knew it. This was the perfect way to tell Yakko! After all, he had asked me to be his girlfriend through an – or after a – song.

But I had to adjust the words. I wrote them down on a sheet of paper. Then I changed "I only knew of Dot Warner, not of her brothers" to "I only talked to Dot Warner, not to her brothers". Next, "No, I haven't known you for long" to "Yes, you've annoyed me for so long".

For a few more days, I practised whenever I could be sure the Warners weren't there or listening to me. As I mentioned, I had a lot of time on my hands, so half the time, I could easily belt out "I'm hypnotized by you, Yakko, I'm in love with you!"

Knowing the tune helped, too.

I planned to sing it at the end of our next date, and so I continued practising.

On the evening of the date, when I was stressing what to wear, Dot surprised me. "So, are you going to stick with the mirror as your audience, or move on to a living audience?" I must've looked blank, because she added "That parody song! You know, the one you're gonna declare love in?"

I stared at her, then glared. "How do you know about that?"

Dot rolled her eyes. "You don't really think we didn't ever hear you? We all did. It's just lucky that the boys couldn't hear exactly what you were saying."

"Then how did you?" I questioned.

Dot flicked her ears so they trembled. "These might be shorter than theirs, but their power of hearing is so much better. So are you going to sing it?"

I sighed. "Yes, I am. Happy?"

"Equivalently." Dot laughed. She pulled a minidress out of thin air this time. It was figure-hugging and deep pink. "You should wear this! Oh, and don't give me the cents for that one. And also, I'm lending this to you" She handed me an Apple Ipod. "This plays stuff without headphones. I've got the karaoke track for your song on it."

So that night, I actually was able to choose everything. Since I was wearing a minidress (and in spite of me being in toon form as usual for the dates), I chose something really low-key: a takeaway on the beach. Thing was, the nearest beach faced east, and so the sun set over the sea. I'd always wanted to see that, and while it wasn't one of those fun-time dates, it was a cliché that still seemed to work.

"So," Yakko said as the sun continued to set. "Why did you choose this?"

I shrugged. "Make any quip you want about how cliché this is – actually, on second thought, don't-" I warned. "But I still kind of like it."

"You want it to be any more cliche." Yakko said, with the smile I knew so well.

"What do you-" he cut me off with a passionate kiss, just as the sun finished setting, and we walked back to the car under a starlit sky.

I decided that the best time to tell him would be when we got back to the hotel, but still in the car. But because of toon reason, I didn't need the Ipod. The minute the car stopped, I spoke. "There's something I wanted to say before we go in – I guess it's kind of a confession. I couldn't believe it at first, but I had to accept it." The music immediately played, without the Ipod. My singing of the words was involuntary. Maybe the laws of the toon world knew that left to myself, I may well have lost my nerve.

"This was never the way I planned, not my intention," I heard my voice sing.

"I only talked to Dot Warner, not with her brothers.

It's not what, i'm used to, just can't resist your charms,

I'm hypnotized by you, Yakko, I'm in love with you!" I could feel my face heating up underneath my fur when I got to that bit, but my voice continued.

"I kissed a Warner, and I liked it

The taste of his sly grinning lips

I kissed a Warner, to try it

Bet the fangirls are jealous

Tried with my might, it felt so right

Does this mean that I'm crazy tonight?

I kissed a Warner, and I liked it

I liked it." I went through the whole song, every line loud and clear.

I couldn't keep eye contact with Yakko as I sang. I felt too...I guess...bashful. But whenever I did look at him, I saw that smile. Whenever he saw me looking, he'd raise an eyebrow and smirk.

Finally, it ended, and I looked up again. "That was kind of my way of saying it." I whispered. "You understand, right?"

"I understand completely. Oh, and one more thing. In answer to the chorus, yes, you are crazy. But then, is anyone sane?"

I laughed at him. "Well, I don't think you are, but I love you for it anyway."

"Guess that's why I love you too. For being crazy. OK, so what next?"

I smiled mischievously and, as if we were on the same wavelength, we jumped onto the seats at the back at the same time. Then I tackled him and we did exactly what we had the night of the date before that."

I'm planning a bit of a timeskip in our next chapter. Not long, just a few weeks, but if I kept those in, it would just be so much fluff no one could breathe. I have to put in a bit of drama, now Alex has admitted it out loud. Please, review and peace out until next time!
