"TEAM!" Maddie's softball team screamed. They grabbed their bags and left. Meanwhile at the lair… "Leo! This is so cool! Come here!" Donnie called from the lab. Leo walked in and left Mikey pondering and Raph playing his game. Eventually, Raph got tired of the same old game, and started into his room to get a new one. Suddenly Mikey pinned Raph against the wall. "What the heck, Mikey?" He yelled. "I think I'm in love." He whimpered. Raph stared at him like he had three heads. His first thought was laughing his shell off, but his little brother's big, blue, desperate puppy eyes were no match for his bitter personality. "Look. I usually don't do this, but because you're my bro, and you caught me in a good mood today, I'll help you. Who are you in love with anyway?" He asked. "Maddie." Mikey whimpered. Raph looked at him like he said the moon was cream filled. He led Mikey into the living room to talk to him.

Later…

Raph watched from the couch as Mikey picked up the phone. "Come on, Mikey…just dial the number, and talk to Maddie." Mikey said to himself. He dialed Maddie's cell number and waited. Meanwhile, Maddie was walking back to the sewers, when her phone rang. She picked it up, and saw it was Mikey. She smiled. "Talk to me." She giggled. "Hey Maddie." Mikey said nervously. "What's up?" Maddie asked. Mikey froze. "Hello? Earth to Mikey. Earth to Mikey?"

"So…as I was saying…"

"Yes…?"

"Do you want to…hang out sometime?"

Maddie froze as well.

"I…would…LOVE to!" She said.

"Okay! When?"

"Any night is fine. Do you want to order a pizza or something?"

"Sure!"

"Okay. I'll see you in 10 minutes."

"Bye!"

"Bye!"

Mikey put down the phone. Raph waited for Mikey to tell him Maddie's response. Mikey slowly nodded, then gave him a shell crushing hug. "Ease up, will ya?" Raph strained. Mikey let go of his death grip, and left. Later that night, Mikey sat in the living room waiting for Maddie. After a few minutes or so, Maddie walked into the room with a hot pink dress on. "Wow. You look great." Mikey said. "Thanks. You too. Well, um…you look like you always do." She giggled. She brought the pizza box from the kitchen into the living room and they both took a slice. "You okay? You seem uneasy." Mikey said thoughtfully. "Yeah. If I told you something, would you promise to keep it a secret?" Maddie asked. "Sure."

"Well, the thing is…I wanted to ask YOU if you wanted to hang out, but I was really nervous."

"I feel ya. It took me all my courage-and some of Raph's- to ask you."

"Raph? I never thought he would help you like that."

"Well, he fell for the puppy eyes."

Maddie laughed along with Mikey.

"I'll tell ya what…I've got an idea. Lets try out the karaoke machine!"

"Awesome idea!"

The next hour and a half was a blast. "That was fun! We should do this more often!" Maddie said right before the went to bed. "Agreed." Mikey said.
