Chapter 1

Casey couldn't believe what he had seen. Raph and this girl they were kissing. Actually KISSING! Right in front of him! Okay, so it was just their noses. But still, he was pretty sure this was kissing. He couldn't even help making a face the first time he saw it. It was supposed to be a joke!

When Raph had asked him the question about dating the newt girl Casey had burst out laughing. His best friend was romantically challenged, and he knew it. He had counted on the turtle in red laughing with him and then later on the ship they'd have a simulation thrown up so they could laugh more at it later.

But instead, Raph was locking lips with her. Or noses. Whatever! And Mona Lisa? Really Raph? What's next? Was he gonna name a chick Venus?

He was glad now that they were back on the ship with no newt girl. If he had to watch her pick up Raph one more time, Casey was going to hit something or someone. Preferably Raph.

"Yo Raph! How bout ya try skatin' again? Maybe ya won't fall on ya ass this time!" he had started laughing before he took a good look at his best friend.

What the hell is he doing?! Once again, Casey couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Here was his best friend looking out the window with the same sad and dopey look he'd expect to see from one of those Disney movies his little sister would watch with the prince and princesses. At the thought of her, he could feel his heart ache. He quickly pushed the memories down, not wanting to start crying or something.

Casey Jones does not cry.

He kept looking at Raph, expecting him to get from the window but Raph hadn't moved an inch. This shit was starting to annoy him, big time.

"Think I'll see her again?" Raph said in a soft tone that made Casey's brow raise.

Please tell me he ain't talkin' bout newt chick...

"I mean she lives on a whole other planet." Raph continued making his brow raise higher. If this shit continued, he was sure with Raph's help he'd have his "The Rock" impression down. Why the hell were they discussing this chick!?

"Do it matter bro? Like ya said whole other planet." Casey leaned on the wall next to Raph, catching the glare thrown at him that he didn't give a damn about. Anyone else would take the sane route and back off from that look, but he'd never been scared of Raph.

The other person he knew wouldn't have backed off would be Leo, but Casey was usually good at handling his best friend unlike the turtle in blue. A fact he took pride in. But this shit was pushing it.

"Whatcha mean do it matter!?" Raph continued glaring at him.

"Do it?" Casey repeated with his own glare while standing to his full height above Raph. He used to think his height was an advantage over at least the people shorter than him until he met Raph.

"Yeah, it does! Damn Case, how da hell you'd feel if you never see April again!?" Raph yelled, and Casey's brow rose again.

Damn, why he ever lowered his brow. His "The Rock" look would have been perfected.

"You comparin' April, a chick we've both known for a long ass time! To this newt chick!?" he gave Raph a look. The comparison was stupid! He admitted he would flirt with the girl. April was hot and he wasn't blind, but that didn't make him in love with the girl. Not to mention he was cool with D now.

"She has a name! It's Mona Lisa!" Raph yelled, and Casey was now fighting the urge to punch the shit out of his best friend. What the hell was happening here? How the hell did this chick become an issue?

"No, it's not! It's some shit you can't even say right!" Casey yelled back knowing that much at least.

"Not da point Case! If it was Apri-"

"I've known Red a long ass time! You knew newt chick for what? ONE DAY!?" Casey held up one finger in front of Raph's face.

"It had to be at least two days..." Raph grumbled after swatting Casey's hand away.

Is he fuckin' serious? Two days? How is that shit was so much better than one? Did they land in the movie Frozen and Raph's ass was Hannah...or was it Annie? He took a deep breath and tried to keep his hands at his side to not strangle the turtle in front of him.

"Pretty sure it was one day." he crossed his arms over his chest instead while still trying to wrap his mind around this whole thing.

He ain't even trust me when we first met...

"Ya don't get it. Its how she just…" Raph paused, and Casey knew his best friend was trying to find the words. But what the hell would Raph even say? The way she what? Hit him?

Last he checked Raph's been knocked around by the foot clan before, mutants, the aliens, some other randoms, and even Karai. It didn't happen much, but it DID happen. Most importantly HE hit Raph all the time and beat his ass when they first met.

But one damn hit from her, and he's love sick! Casey's eye twitched before just shaking his head at Raph's silence.

"Ya right, I don't..." Casey caught the way Raph's shoulders slumped a moment with a pained look in his green eyes before his arms crossed over his plastron quickly.

"Whatever" Raph mumbled.

Anyone else and Casey would have thought he imagined it. But he'd learned Raph. It was hard not to; they were two sides of the same fucked up coin.

Now it was quiet, and Raph just had to look out that damn window again.

What the hell was so special about the damn chick? This shit is makin' my head hurt. He looked again at Raph.

"Yo Raph…" he watched as his best friend's head turned and Casey's arm shot out with his hand curled into a fist as he put everything in that punch.

Raph landed with a thud on the floor and started growling at him while getting up.

"What the hell Jones!?" Raph's hands were curled into fists but at this point, Casey didn't give a damn as he turned on his heel to leave.

Raph could keep his damn window. He hit him harder than that damn newt ever could.
