A Cat, A Gecko, and Some Turtles

Chapter 1

Mia's POV:

I tap my fingers impatiently on the table, as I sit outside, in the dark, while leaning my head on my left hand.

Where the hell is she?! I groan as I bang my head on the table.

"Hi!" a female voice makes me look up. I stare up at Lauren with my chin resting on the table.

"Been waiting long?" she asks politely.

"Nah!" I lie. I have been waiting for her for about an hour. Lauren sits down in the chair across from me. "What took you so long?" I ask as a man walks over and hands us each a menu.

"Hm?" I sigh, rolling my eyes as I ask again.

"What took your ass so long to get here?"

"Oh. Well you see I couldn't find, Kitten" she says simply never taking her eyes off of the menu.

"You cat?" I take a sip of my ice water.

"Yeah"

"Did you find her?"

"Yeah"

"Where was she?"

"On my bed"

"Are you freakin kidding me?!"

"Nope. True story"

"You idiot!" I face palm.

"I am not an idiot. You are!" she says, defensively, finally looking up from the menu to glare at me.

"Really?! You couldn't find a cat that was sleeping on your bed. Where she usually sleeps. And you don't consider yourself an idiot?" I say raising an eye brow at her.

"…Shut up!" I laugh at her flustered face.

"Are you ladies ready to order?" a man asks.

"I am. What about you, Lauren?"

"Yup! I will have the spaghetti" Lauren says handing the menu to the man.

"I will have the steak. Medium Rare, Please" I hand the man my menu. The man nods and walks away. I look around the restaurant and notice no one is here. The sun went down a while ago so the only light that is seen is the street lamp. "Lauren? You do realize this restaurant was supposed to have closed at 8 and it is…" I look at the hanging clock inside the restaurant, meaning I'm looking through the window. "10:30" I finish.

"I persuaded the manager" she smirks at me.

"What did you do? Never mind! I don't want to know" I shake my head at her.

"Can you believe today is our 1 year anniversary of being friends?" Lauren asks with a big smile.

"Nope! What I can't believe is that you moved to New York"

"Me neither! It's so exciting!"

"You bet it is!" I smile as we fist bump. "Which reminds me… I got you something" I smile widely at her.

"Ooo! Whatcha get me?! Whatcha get me!?" she shouts excitingly, jumping up and down in her seat.

"I don't know if I should give it to you…"

"Give it to me!" Lauren has knocked over our water and her chair laid on the ground. She is sitting on her knees on the table with my shirt in her hands and her face in my face. I laugh as I push her lightly away from me.

"Don't worry. I was going to give it to you" I look at her amusingly, trying not to laugh at her face. I pull out an envelope and hand it to her. She snatches it from my hand and quickly opens it to pull out a piece of paper which she reads out loud.

"Roses are Red,

Violets are Blue,

I'm so happy I met you.

Awe Mia that's so sweet" Lauren says holding the note close to her body.

"There is something else in the envelope" she looks in the envelope and pulls out a gift card.

"Oh, very funny" she says sarcastically. "A gift card to a fishing shop" she smirks unamusingly at my laughing face. I wipe an imaginary tear as our food is placed in front of us. We eat our food happily. Suddenly there was a loud crashing noise behind me. I can hear people fighting. I look at Lauren, who is staring at the place where the sound is coming from. I pull out my wallet and lay the cash on the table before I get up. Lauren and I creep slowly towards the sound. I peek around the corner and gasp at the sight. I see four rather large turtle like creatures fighting a bunch of guys. I hear Lauren gasp behind me.

"What's wrong, Ugly? Seen a mirror lately?" A turtle with an orange mask teases. I chuckle lightly. I see one of the dudes with a purple tattoo look over at Lauren and me.

"Shit!" I mutter under my breath. Seconds later I hear Lauren scream. I turn to see a mammoth of a man holding her up in the air.

"Put me down!" she growls, wiggling in his arms. I glance at the turtles who are standing there in shock.

Are they not going to help?!

"Let me go!" Lauren struggles.

"Hey! Ugly!" I call out, making all eyes turn to me. "Put her down cuz I think you are making her ugly like you!" I get a disgust look on my face.

"What did you say?!" the man growls, as he throws Lauren at the turtles. I see her get caught and held bridal style by the one with a blue mask.

"I called you ugly! I thought I was speaking pretty clearly. Are you stupid as well?" I smirk at him before looking at my nails.

"Why you little!" the man roars and lunges at me. I feel ears pop on my head and my furry tail appear as I jump up. I place a hand on the man's back as I leap up into the air and spin kick him into a dumpster before landing gracefully on the ground.

"Woohoo! That was amazing!" the orange mask turtle cheers, running up to me. I back away from him with my ears flat on my head. "Woah, Dudette. We are not going to hurt you" the orange mask turtle says, calmly. I see Lauren walk up to me unharmed and with a smile on her face.

"Lauren! Are you alright?" I ask hugging her to me.

"Yeah, I'm okay. Here, let me introduce you to these guys."
