Chapter 7

~Four day jump~ the wedding day

The wedding was out in the spacious backyard under their favorite tree (of where they'd sit under to read). The yard was dressed in décor of their favorite colors, their little brothers offered for their friend April to do the food, they agreed.

The rest of the wedding venue was as listed chairs on either side (Leo and Raph invited their friends: Usagi, Leaderhead, Casey,and family members), their daughter had a beautiful white flower girl dress, the reception was near the wedding they only had to walk over.

Their daughter's friends/cousins (hybrids as well) were there as well… as listed Clarissa (beautiful tail and chocolate brown eyes with vampire teeth, cat ears), Rosanna (multi-colored tail and black eyes with vampire teeth, cat ears), Anoki (fluffy tail and green eyes with vampire teeth, cat ears) , and Kimi (short tail and blue eyes with vampire teeth, cat ears); they were happy for Cara Marie because she was finally getting good parents.

Her friends helped her get dressed and met her parents at the back door of the house. Cara Marie was sent out to the song of 'Brave' (by Sara Bareilles) throwing flowers along the way and her parents walked down to the song of 'When you say nothing at all' (by Alison Krauss).

Leo and Raph got to the alter, they held both hands together and the minister began with "we are gathered here today to share the love these two have for each other and they have decided to write their own vows. Raph you can start."

Raph took the cue and began saying "I've known since we were four that I wanted nothing more than to be with you…you are my shining star that guides me through the dark. You understand me and have seen through the best of times and the worst of times. I love that I don't have to keep secrets from you. You are my light, my heart and my love."

Raph saw Leo tear up, so he released one of his hands to stop a tear that fell. Leo loved the heart felt vow, and he let Raph cup his cheek, began saying "you are my one true love, my one and my only. You are my strength, you know me better than I know myself…. You see right to my soul and I love every little thing that you do. You are my other half; the one who makes me feel complete. I love you."

Leo saw his love trying to hold back tears of joy; Raph won the battle and gave a warm happy smile and without tearing his eyes away from Leo responded to the minister saying "I do." The minster turned back to Leo (not looking at the minster), said "I do." The minister said "You are mated for life…. (before the minister said they can kiss, they already were)". Their daughter and her friends were laughing at that.

~where's Cara?

After the wedding, they all joined under the tent for dinner and dancing. Cara Marie went into the house to the bathroom but didn't tell anyone where she was going, and were left thinking she disappeared; her friends (knowing her story) told her parents, Clarissa said "Excuse me, uncle Leo, uncle Raph (they both turned to look at their daughter's friend) um…no one can find Cara...we're sorry we should have known to keep an eye on her."

Leo and Raph were shocked and called over her nonno and Leo asked "father can you helps us find Cara, she's run off. She's never done this before."

Splinter looked at his son's and replied "I shall help you find her, do you know of any places where she'd like to hide?"

Raph replied "Father, Cara has never liked to play hide and seek. Ever since what happened when she was five and six." Worry lancing his voice

Leo chimed in and said "Karai (she walked over to her brothers) have you seen Cara after the wedding ended?"

Karai looked at each of her brothers and said "I haven't seen her since she sat with her friends at the wedding. Why? Where is she?" Donnie and Mikey were coming over to see what was wrong they were told by every one that Cara Marie is missing. They were shocked as well and both said "Does anyone know where she is?" and Splinter said "what happened when she was five and six?" Raph said "we'll have Cara tell you when we find her."

Cara was finished with the bathroom and instead of going out of the back door she went out the front door and saw her Cromwell godfather; everyone heard a blood curling pierced scream and ran to the front.

The scream came from Cara, her parents were the first there and she insistently jumped to them crying and still screaming. They turned to where she was pointing and saw her deadbeat 'godfather' Kenny drunk off his ass. Her friend Clarissa was at her side trying to calm her, Leo and Raph forced their daughter and friends to go inside and keep her safe. Her friend Clarissa opened her arms and caught her cradle style. They ran to the safety of the house, Cara's friends were trying to get her to stop screaming and her Aunt Karai stayed in front of the door so no one could enter. They could hear her parents threaten the man and then her uncles calling the police.

Everyone at the wedding knew who the man was and what he did but wanted nothing to do with him. The police showed up and took the man away.

Raph and Leo told the guests to go back to the reception; they and Splinter and their brothers went to go see if she would tell her story and if she wanted to go back to the party. Karai opened the door for them and locked it. (Only the back door was open)

Cara agreed and began to tell them what happened when she was five and six, she said "well as you know I five, six when this happened. No one could stop it but the person I called 'uncle' Kenny well he beat me really bad to those years Babbo and Papà declared that I was no longer to have contact with that family except my cousins and big brother.) The three who didn't know the story were heartbroken all thinking she didn't deserve that but Donnie spoke up and said "do you want to go back to the party sweet goddaughter? Cara looked up and said "yes please" her friends promised to keep a better eye on her (by going everywhere with her).

Everyone returned to the party and it was time for their first dance the song was 'I think we're alone now' (by Tiffany). They mostly had slow songs to dance to like 'Can't help falling in love' (by ub40), 'Still the one' (by Orleans), and 'My guy' (by Mary wells); and few fast songs for their daughter and their friends to dance to. Their daughter put on 'Dancing in the Moonlight' (by King Harvest) Cara and her friends started to make a dance for it entertaining everyone there.

~fun time, sleepovers, the honeymoon

*Cara's parents went to a hotel for their honeymoon and let their little girl's friends stay with her, her nonno was watching them.*

[At the hotel] Leo and Raph were getting ready to have a few nights to themselves. Knowing their daughter is safe, they focused on each other. While back home they never get the chance to be alone together. Their first night away from home is the first time they'll be joined as one in the most spiritual way possible. The blinds covered the windows as candles emanated the only light in the room as the flames dance, in the distance the mellow songs of the radio played.

"I can't believe we finally get some alone time." Leo spoke

"More like down time. If you know what I mean." Raph replied with a wink

With a shake of his head and a slight chuckle in his voice Leo looked at the floor. His sight was taken away from the view of the carpet when he felt Raph's paw take ahold of his. The two lovers locked eyes. A light twinkle gleamed in their eyes as they smiled at each other. "I've missed this….Us alone" Ralph spoke as he caressed his love's cheek.

"So have I." Leo spoke cupping his lover's paw that rested on his cheek. The loving gaze in their eyes dropped as their eyes closed. Leo could feel Ralph growing closer as the heat from his breath pushed off of his lips and the taste of the mint breath mints from the bathroom. When

Leo turned his head to the left and parted his lips to Raph allowing his tongue to dart in and explore his mouth. Soon Leo wrapped his arms around Raph's neck. Taking a side step Leo moved so that he would fall onto the bed causing Raph to tumble on top of him. They fell onto the bed with an 'humph' as they continued their passionate lip lock.

"Leo." Ralph spoke his voice hot and husky, "I love you."

Leo replied abit shakily with a soft lustful tone, "I-I love y-you too Raphie"

Raph felt a shiver go down his back at Leo's tone matching the lustful looks and before any more words could be spoken, Leo pulled Raph back down for a hungry kiss until they both needed air. Both had their ears slightly laid back, soft low sound of churring growls filled the room. Raph looked down to Leo and their gazes locked; while Leo started to whimper and move their lower half's together; silently asking Raph to claim him, asking quietly "are you sure Leo?" Leo replied with a nod of yes.

Raph lowered his head close to his loves and started kissing, moved slowly as to not hurt him. Tongues dancing passionately against each other until Leo started getting fussy wanting Raph to move faster. Raph complied by repeatedly hitting Leo's sweet spot. Feeling the overdrive, they rode out their orgasms while being tied to the other. They went two rounds switching who bottomed every day for a week.
