(Another clarifier: The only people that know that Kaho is Shinobu's younger sister is Amou, HItomi, and Len. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.)

Around half an hour after Hitomi and Kaho entered the kitchen:

"Itadakimasu!" cried Kazuki as he grabbed the onigiri and cookies.

Kaho looked confusedly at Hitomi.

"Where did those cookies come from anyway," she asked.

Hitomi grinned.

"You saw that huge door in the pack of the pantry, right? That's a freezer. We had excess cookie dough, and Onii-san and I won't be able to finish all of it..." she explained.

Kaho nodded in understanding.

"Onii-san, Satoru-san, never did enjoy sweets too much anyway. He always said that after eating sweets, he had to eat salty food as well to 'balance out the taste'." said Kaho.

Hitomi opened a drawer and began pulling out mugs while nodding along to what Kaho was saying.

Kaho grabbed the teapots (they had to make tea for the whole orchestra. They needed more than one teapot.) and began filling the cups.

She handed one to Kazuki and spread the rest out on the table.

Hitomi disappeared into the pantry and pulled out a package of foam cups.

Kaho grabbed the coffee pots as well, and spread the cups of coffee out on the counter as well.

Len walked up to the two girls and asked, "What can I do to help?"

Kaho smiled gratefully at him and said, "Could you put these plates of onigiri out on the counter??? I need to pull the cookies out of the oven."

Len gave Kaho a small smile and kissed her forehead, and said, "Of course."

At that, Kaho blushed deep red.

Hitomi looked quizzically at her older sister.

"KAHO-SAN!!!!! Hurry up!!!!! Our cookies are burning!!!!!!!"

Kaho was snapped out of her reverie and began pulling the batches of cookies out of the oven.

Soon enough, everyone was seated at the counter, chewing on their onigiri and sipping on either their coffee or their tea.

Fuyuumi walked up to the two and quietly said, "If you don't mind, I'd like to help as well."

Kaho smiled and said, "Of course Fuyuumi-chan. Why don't you help me wash these plates???"

Kazuki had finished all his food already (three servings of food!!!) and was looking at the odd combination of Hitomi, Kaho, Fuyuumi, and Len.

He looked towards the sink and saw that the dishes were piled high.

He quickly jumped off his stool, over the counter, grabbed the sponge out of Kaho's hands, and began scrubbing the dishes.

He turned to her, grinned and said, "You can't do ALL the work you know."

Kaho smiled in gratitude.

"Arigatou Hihara-sempai!"

Kazuki nodded in response, turned to Ryo who was chatting away with Aoi, Amou, Shoko and Keiichi and said, "Minna-san, let's help Kaho-chan out, ne? It's not fair to let her and Hitomi-chan do all the work. Let's get crackin!"

Ryo looked at Amou and sniggered.

"Who says 'crackin' anymore???" he smirked.

Amou looked at Ryo with a glint in her eyes.

"Let's help clean up, ne Ryo-kun?"

Ryo shook his head and said, "Hai, hai Nami-san."

Keiichi and Shoko stood up and walked over to Kazuki.

"Hihara-sempai," said Keiichi sleepily, "Doesn't Hitomi-chan have a dishwasher???"

Kazuki's eyes widened to their fullest extent.

He smacked a soapy hand against his forehead and said, "EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!??!?!?!?!?!?!?"

Kaho turned around, goggled at the bubbles running down her sempai's face, and said, "Didn't you know???"

Kazuki shook his head.

Kaho giigled and said," It's that silver shiny contraption right next to the spice cabinet."

"So THAT'S what that was," Kazuki exclaimed.

Hitomi looked at Kazuki with an eyebrow raised.

"DUH" she said, a small smile on her face.

Kazuki blushed, embarrased that he was being made fun of in front of Kaho.

Keiichi and Shoko began helping Kazuki load the dirty and soapy dishes into the dishwasher.

*************

Around thirteen minutes later:

Kaho heard a bubbling noise coming from somewhere.

She was at the counter, picking up the dirty dishes, and she turned around, looking for the source of the sound.

"EHHHHHHHHHHHH!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!"

Hitomi, Ryo, Kazuki, Shoko, and Keiichi spun around and slipped on the ground.

"HIHARA-SEMPAI!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO!?!??!?!?!" exclaimed Kaho.

Bubbled were oozing out of the dishwasher, and they were quickly covering the ground...

Kazuki's eyes widened.

"GOMEN NASAI MINNA-SAN!" he exclaimed, his head bowed.

Suddenly, Kazuki felt something wet hit the top of his head.

He straightened up, as his hand immediately went to the top of his head.

He looked up to see Kaho with a huge grin on her face, and a soapy hand.

Kazuki brought his hand down from the top of his head, to see a huge glob of bubbles on it.

His jaw dropped to the ground (anime style).

He suddenly grinned, crouched down, grabbed handfuls of bubbly detergent, which, by now, was all over the ground.

Kazuki stood up, and flung the foam.

The shot hit Hitomi directly in the face.

While her mouth was open due to her laughing.

The other shot wasn't as lucky.

It hit Ryo right in the back of the head.

While he was arguing with Len.

Causing the parts that didn't hit Ryo to go flying off into Len's face.

At this point, Amou had pulled out her camera, and was taking shots of all the people that had foam on themselves.

Unfortunately for her, this means that while she was busy shooting pictures of Len covered in foam, she didn't notice Hitomi, who was behind her.

Hitomi pulled back the collar of Amou's shirt, and dumped cold, soapy water down her back.

"AIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!" screamed Amou, a huge grin on her face, "I'm going to get you for that!!!!!!!!! That's right Hitomi-chan! You'd better run!!!"

Hitomi attempted to sprint across the floor to safety, but karma seemed to bite her in the butt.

It seeme that Hitomi had forgotten that the ground was covered in detergenty foam.

Meaning that the ground was very slippery.

Meaning that instead of sprinting off, she took a couple steps forward, slipped, fell, and slid across the floor into Aoi, who happened not to be looking at her, so that they collided, and Aoi fell to the ground, causing him to slide into Kazuki who then got a face full of bubbles.

Kaho's laughter at that point was infectious, and soon had everyone either laughing or smiling slightly (Len) at the situation.

Soon enough, everyone was flinging soap.

Except for Azuma, that is.

He was off to the side, excluded from all the fun.

That is, until Kaho slipped.

And slid.

Over to him.

When the then extended a hand to her.

And pulled her up.

And Len had to come over and rescue his beloved girlfriend from the evil clutches of the purple-haired idiot.

But he wasn't looking at where he was going.

So he slipped as well.

And slid over to the other side of the room, and smashed into Shoko, who was valiantly trying to clean up the mess.

Shoko began falling, her hand outstretched, and a small scream was released from her lips.

Suddenly, Keiichi appeared in front of her, and caught her hand, catching her, and pulling her back up.....

As soon as she was standing safely again with a huge blush on her face, Keiichi offered a hand to Len, and pulled him up to safety.

Len nodded curtly to Keiichi in gratitude.

Keiichi smiled sleepily in reply.

He walked over to a table, sat down, and lay his head down on his arms, Shoko followed him, and sat next to him, smiling at her friends, but staying with Keiichi all the same.

Len was still standing where Keiichi and Shoko left him, which happened to be by the sink.

He turned around, and began rinsing the soap bubbles off his arms with the detachable water-squirter-gun-thingy.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

'Payback,' he thought, 'This should be a good enough shot at revenge towards Yunoki-sempai. PLUS, i get to see Kaho-chan in a wet shirt. IIE! BAD LEN! BAD LEN! BAD BAD BAD!!!!!!! But still, that WOULD be pretty hot...... BAD! BAD! BAD!!!'

As Len began mentally smacking himself, he dried his arms, picked up the water-squirter-thingy, made sure that the water was on full pressure, and pulled back the switch, aiming it at Azuma.

Unfortunately, Len had forgotten to choose which setting to put the spray on.

Meaning that he had left it on "shower".

Everybody got SOAKED through.

Even the girls, much to the guys' delight.

Nothing pleased their hormonal minds more than seeing the girls in soaked shirts.

Everyone stopped dead in their tracks as they were sprayed with cold water.

They all turned to look at Len in unison.....

Their jaws had dropped in shock, and their eyes were as large as dinner plates.

Fortunately, for Kaho, Azuma's state of shock caused his grip on her to loosen, allowing Kaho to break free, and run/slide on the slippery tiles over to Len, getting herself drenched in the process.

Unfortunately though, Kaho seemed to be even more clumsy than usual, and slipped, and as her feet collided with Len's, he fell as well.

In the end, they ended up in a most compromising situation.

Kaho was on the floor, surrounded by the foam, and Len was on top of her, his face inches from hers.

Kaho blushed.

"Onegaishimas, Len-kun, could you get off me?," she asked.

Len's cheeks flushed a pale pink.

He kissed her cheek almost indiscernibly, and stood up, extending a hand to Kaho.

"Gomene Kaho-chan," he said.

Kaho shook her head, "It's okay, it was an accident after all, ne Len-kun?"

Len nodded curtly.

"WHEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!"

Everyone turned around to see who had made the loud sound.

They all saw Kazuki, wearing plastic covers over his feet, sliding over the foam.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!" he exclaimed, crashing into a wall.

A glass vase toppled off a table close by and shattered on the ground.

His head was on the ground, his legs on the wall...

"Hehehe," he laughed nervously, "Gomene Hitomi-chan."

Hitomi giggled.

She picked up a bunch of foam, walked over to Kazuki, and smeared it in his hair.

"It's okay," she smiled, "We're even now."

She helped Kazuki up and said, "You guys go get cleaned up. Kaho-sempai, Tsukimori-sempai, Tsuchira-sempai, and Amou-sempai will stay here and help me clean this up."

"EEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHH?!?!?!?!?!?!??!" exclaimed Kaho.

"NANI?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!" exclaimed Amou and Ryo in unison.

Len simply nodded.

Hitomi smiled.

"C'mon. This mess isn't gonna clean itself!" she grinned.

She walked into a closet, and pulled out a bunch of mops.

She tossed one to Kazuki, one to Len, one to Ryo, and one to Kaho, keeping one for herself.

Laughingly, she said, "Race you!" as she sped across the kitchen, successfully mopping up some of the foam.

Kaho giggled.

"I don't know about you, but that looks like fun," she exclaimed, taking off after her sister.
