Donnie's POV

Two weeks after she woke up, Cat was able to go walking around again. She just needed to use crutches. Skyler and I were almost done with our project. In fact, we were working on it in my lab when Raph and Cat finally showed up. They made a surprisingly good couple.

"Hey, there's the happy couple!" Emily called from the couch. Leo had his arm around her, and she was nuzzled up to his side. "Aww, you two just look so cute together!"

"Emily?" Cat said.

"Yes, Cat?"

"Shut up."

"... Fine," Emily sighed. She and Leo had already gone on that first date, so now they were a little closer.

"Hey, Donnie," Skyler said. "How's that look?"

"Oh, wow, cool!" I responded. It actually looked like a real dog! We put in the finishing touches and turned it on. The eyes came to life. The tail started wagging. It was a success! "So what should we call him?"

"Sparky?" Skyler suggested.

"Sparky it is!"

Cat's POV

After stoping by the lair, Raph decided he would walk me home. I was still trying to get used to using crutches. He was really glad I was okay. And he was gonna make sure I stayed that way! He actually said that after I left the hospital! I still can't believe he stayed by my side the whole entire time. That was just so sweet! When we got to my apartment, I unlocked it and let him inside.

"So this is the place, eh?" He said. I forgot that he'd never been here before.

"Yup, this is it," I said with a sigh.

He gave me a worried look. "What's wrong?" He asked, his voice filled with concern. Then, when he noticed the tears welling up in my eyes, he got the answer to his question. "Hey, it's gettin pretty late," he said instead. "Ya should get some rest." He helped me get to my room and into bed. "I'll see ya," he said at last, turning to leave.

"W-wait," I said suddenly. "Can... Could you...stay with me?" I didn't want him to go. Not now. But, in the whole apartment, there was only this bed. But at least it was a pretty big bed. He smiled warmly and nodded yes. I scooted over and he got under the covers with me. It was a little awkward, but, somehow, it felt...right. I reached over and pushed the little button on his watch, turning him back into a turtle. I settled in under the covers. I stayed close to Raph. I nestled my head into his chest. He had one hand on my head, stroking my hair, while his other hand held onto my upper arm. I could feel his heart racing. I could feel his steady breathing. And it all felt...right. Somehow.

He held me close. I felt so safe with him. I know he would never let me down. I wouldn't let him down, either. I lay there, snuggled up against his warm, protecting body. Soon, I fell asleep. And, for once, I didn't relive the moment my parents died in my nightmares. I had a wonderful dream instead. I knew I would always be safe with him. He was my Romeo.

Mikey's POV

I walked Sam home and met her family. Her mom was pretty funny. Her dad scared me a little, though. Her little sister was fun! And had one heck of a sweettooth.

"I want candy to put in my eating hole!" She whined. She was running around the place.

"Now, young man," her dad said to me. His voice was stern and threatening. "Remember, if you hurt my baby girl, I'm gettin my shotgun." Yipes!

"I understand, sir," I said nervously. Man, he was scary!

I said bye to Sam and headed home.

Skyler's POV

When we showed up with our project, Donnie and I got an A+ almost immidiately! We kept Sparky, though. He tried to bite the teacher, which would've caused her to lose a hand. But, for once, I couldn't wait for school to be over. Donnie and I were going on a date! He was gonna take me to see a movie. Tron: Legacy! I've been wanting to see that movie for weeks! And I get to go with my boyfriend: Bonus! And with Donnie as my boyfriend: 3 times better!

When the bell rang at the end of the day, I immidiately looked for Donnie. He took me home so I could drop off my school stuff, and we spent some time in Central Park. When it was time to go, the moon was up. I started to leave when Donnie suddenly grabbed my hand.

"Hang on," he said, smiling. "How about we go in a different style?" When he saw my confused expression, he went into more detail. "I'm talking about Ninja Style!" My eyes went wide with surprise. "C'mon!"

I was scared out of my mind! He practically had to drag me to the rooftop, trying to convince me it would be fine. On the roof, he went back to turtle. "I feel more comfortable doing it like this," he explained. He picked me up in his arms, told not to worry, and jumped. I held him tight, eyes squeezed shut, too terrified to scream. I expected us to fall, but we never did. Cautiously, I opened my eyes. We were on a higher building now. Donnie was running smoothly at an encredible speed. I looked around. I gasped in shock.

"Oh my gosh..." I whispered, utterly amazed. The city lights were so pretty! It was magical. This date was off to a great start! It was exhilarating! Donnie chuckled.

"I thought you would like it," he said, smiling.

"No, that would be an understatement," I said, still mesmerized.

During the movie, we sat in the back, hand-in-hand. I rested my head on his now human shoulder. At the end, he brought his other hand to my face. I turned to him. He leaned in. We kissed. My eyes automatically fluttered shut. It was magical. That's the only way to describe it. I didn't want it to, but all good things have to come to an end eventually. For a long moment, none of us moved. We just stared into each other's eyes, smiling, unable to move or speak. Eventually, Donnie said, "C...C'mon... Lets go..."

"Y...Yeah," I said in agreement.

We left the same way we came: On the rooftops.
