Saturday
Leonardo spent the whole day out of the lair.
Katina snuck out of the palace.
Somehow, they found each other…
"Dinner is served." Leonardo said placing a large square one inch high box between them. He opened it up to reveal a round-shaped flat bread with cheese and pepperoni.
Kat looked at it. It was the strangest food she had ever seen. "What is it?"
"Pizza." Leo replied picking up a slice. "I thought it would be a nice change. And I'm not really into Chinese food that much."
"Oh." Kat looked at it again. "How do you eat it? I see no chopsticks."
"You eat it with your hands." Leo replied and took a bite. Cheese strung out and fell hanging off the slice.
"Hands." Kat was appalled by the thought. Food was not to be eaten with hands. "That's barbaric."
"How?" Leo asked taking another bite.
"Because, it's with your hands." Kat answered. "That's just wrong."
"OK." Leo replied "I don't have any chopsticks so OH WELL. Don't eat."
"Well." Kat folded her arms in disgust. "Fine. I won't/"
"Suit yourself." Leo shrugged finishing off his piece.
Kat watched him pick up another slice. She could smell it. It was sooo good.
Grr
She sighed. Apparently her stomach thought it smelt good too.
Leo smirked to himself. She's definitely a stubborn one. He thought and took another bite of his slice.

"Hey you guys."
Raphael rolled his eyes. It was bad enough Michaelangelo and Kimmico were the bigmouths in the lair, but to add Mondo Gecko to the mix was icing on the cake.
"What?" Mondo asked as he walked up to Raphael. "No kiss and hug."
"You even think about it and dinosaurs won't be the only ones extinct." Raphael answered and walked off.
"Damn Venus." Mondo said turning to her. "Did he take over your PMS?"
"Very funny." Venus replied. "Nice to see you again Mondo. Where have you been the past couple of weeks?"
"I've been seeing the hottest chick." Mondo replied. "Where's Mike?"
"I don't know." Venus replied holding up a bowl of ice-cream. "I have more important things to think about."

Kat watched Leo eat. Each slice he devoured made her stomach growl louder and louder. Pizza. The food he was eating smelt so good, but was messy to eat. But, she was hungry for it.
Leo picked up the last slice. He still couldn't believe she was so stubborn when it came to eating, but what was he to expect with someone so refined.
Leo went to bite into the last slice when it was snatched out of his hands. It took him off guard, but couldn't help but smirk.
Kat bit into the slice like an animal. She was so hungry that she didn't give a damn about eating properly. Alls she wanted to do was eat.
"Hungry." Leo said handing her a napkin.
"Umm…" She swallowed her bite. "Thanks." She said but wasn't going to admit that he was right. "Why didn't you tell me this was good?"
"You wouldn't give me a chance to tell you." Leo replied. "Ain't it nice to have a change?"
Kat looked into his eyes. "Yes…it is."

"Hey Mikey." Mondo hollered. "Where you at?"
"He's in his room with Kimmi." Raphael answered as Venus sat next to him on the couch.
Mondo smirked and walked over to Mikey's door. "Hey buddy." He said opening the door. "You wanna go…OH Shit…My bad." He said and closed the door.
Raphael laughed earning an elbow in the side from Venus.
"You're sick." Mondo said walking by. "Real sick." He said and headed towards Donatello.
Donatello sighed. Help me God. He thought as Mondo leaned on his shoulder. "Do you mind?"
"What for?" Mondo asked squinting his eyes to read the computer screen. "What are you doing/"
"Nothing." Donatello blushed putting his hands over the screen.
"Yeah right." Mondo grabbed Donatello's chair and rolled him out the way.
"Hey wait a minute."
"Oh."
Raphael looked over to Donatello seeing him struggling to keep Mondo from looking at his computer screen. "Will you two knock it off? We are about to watch a movie."
"Raph, come help me." Donatello demanded as Mondo knocked him out the way with his tail.
Raphael paused the DVD and got off the couch with Venus following him to see what was going on. "What?"
"He won't get away from my computer." Donatello complained as he jumped on Mondo knocking him away.
"Donnie's having cyber sex." Mondo exclaimed.
"I am not." Donatello's eyes widened. "I am not."
"Donnie." Raphael said looking at the computer screen. "So this is what you do all night long."
"No, I don't." Donatello looked over to Venus for support. "I swear. I'm not as perverted as my brothers are."
"Then what's this?" Raphael said looking at his brother's yahoo instant messenger. "Who's turtlegirlpower?"
Donatello's eyes widened. "No one."
"Donnie's got a girlfriend." Raphael said causing his brother to turn bright red.

Leo lay next to Kat and stared up at the stars. The night, for once, was clear.
"It's been ten thousand years and still the stars are all the same." Kat said looking at all of the familiar constellations.
"Really." Leo replied turning his head to look at her.
"Yeah." Kat replied facing him. "Stars never seem to change. Just everything else."
"Have you decided on…on your future husband." Leo asked turning her smile into a frown.
Kat sighed. "No…I…I haven't."
"All." Leo said. "All are no good."
"One or two were nice, but none of them really care about me." Kat answered honestly. "They are after other things."
"Oh." Leo looked back up to the stars. I can see why. "I wish I could help."
"Yeah." Kat looked back at the stars. A single tear rolled down her cheek. "I wish…you could too."
Leo sighed. He could hear her crying. Bravely, he reached for her hand.
Kat didn't pull her hand back when he took it.
Leo squeezed it but didn't know why. It just felt right. "If you ever need to get out and talk, you know where to find me."
"Yeah." Kat squeezed his hand back. "Thanks." It was nice to have a friend who listened to her.
"You're welcome."

Donatello knocked Raphael and Mondo Gecko away from his computer. "You all are a pain."
"Heh." Raphael shrugged. "What do you think we are here for?"
Donatello rolled his eyes.
"What's all the racket about?" Michaelangelo said as he and Kimmico came out of his room.
"Donnie's got a girlfriend." Mondo announced to him. "And he's afraid to admit it."
"I am not." Donatello shut down his computer. "And she's not my girlfriend."
"Is she that same girl you met at Mikey's Rave?" Kimmico asked. "Zenobia. Wasn't that her name?"
"Maybe." Donatello shrugged as his cheeks turned bright red.
"Man you are pathetic." Mondo said. "Well, sorry to I got to run, but I have a date tonight."
"You? Date?" Raphael wanted to laugh. "With who? Godzilla in town."
"No." Mondo replied. "You know Donnie ain't the only one who met a chick at that Rave."
"The dragon one." Venus said putting her empty bowl of ice cream in the sink.
"Yeah." Mondo smirked. "We've been going out about once a week for the past few. I think it's getting serious."
"Oh please." Raphael said plopping back on the couch. "You wouldn't stand a chance with one of them fire breathers."
"Jealous." Mondo said with his head in the air.
"Mondo." Venus said sitting down next to Raphael. "Don't you think you are playing with thin ice here? Imagine if Dragon Lord found out."
"Nah. He's too busy trying to keep his empire together." Mondo explained.
Donatello thought for a moment. "Who told you that/"
"Hana." Mondo replied receiving looks from his friends. "The dragon babe I'm going out with."
"Dude, I want details." Michaelangelo high three-d him.
"No prob."
"You are not afraid of Dragon Lord." Venus asked getting concerned.
"What's he got to fear from Dragon Lord?" Raphael said grabbing the remote to the TV. "If anything, he should fear Leo. Leo would have a shit fit if he found out. You know how Leo is."
Michaelangelo chuckled. "He might lecture you to death."
"Nag your ass the whole time." Raphael added. "But hey, I wouldn't mind the peace. Keeps him off my back."
"Don't worry." Mondo said heading for the door. "I ain't worried about Leo. And as for Dragon Lord, well, that's why I still got my laser blaster." He smirked patting the blaster in his side pocket. "And it's fully charged too."
"Your funeral."
Venus sighed as Mondo walked out the door. "I'm going go lay down."
"You alright Babe." Raphael asked grabbing her hand.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Venus nodded. "I'm just tired." She said placing his hand on her abdomen. "It doesn't take much to wear me out."

Leo and Kat both held their heads down as they walked back to the palace. At the end of the alley, they stopped.
"I better go." Kat said pulling away.
"Wait." Leo stopped her.
"I have to go." Kat said refusing to look at him.
"…"
"Leo."
"Look, I think you're a bitch." Leo admitted.
Kat's mouth dropped open. "Oh, thanks. That just makes me feel so much better."
"But I…"
Kat rolled her eyes. "What?"
Leo pulled her to him staring her in the eyes.
"What?"
Leo closed his eyes. He wanted so much to kiss her that moment. He didn't know what was coming over him. She was his enemy. He wasn't supposed to be thinking like this. He opened his eyes.
Kat could read his thoughts and his feelings just by looking in his eyes. There was something about him that seemed so sincere. Her heart started to pound. She wasn't sure how she was supposed to feel. "I should go."
"Yeah." Leo let her go. "I guess I need to go too."
Kat nodded.
Leo took one last look at her and turned away. Get your head straight Leo.
Bye. Kat felt her eyes watering. Life was cruel. She thought as he disappeared in the shadows.

"Where were you?"
Kat paused in the hallway. Caught again. She turned away slowly trying to keep from shaking. She remained silent for her own good.
"You were with him, weren't you?"
Kat nodded looking him dead in the eye. They were red. She knew he was mad.
Dragon Lord stepped out into the light. "You choose a husband tomorrow evening. Have you decided?"
"No." Kat sighed. "I have not."
"I know." Kat answered with a hint of attitude as she turned away. You don't have to remind me.

Leonardo walked around the lair moping. What is my problem?
"Hey." Raphael said throwing an empty beer can in the trash. "What's up with you?"
"Nothing." Leo snapped for no reason in particular. "Why would you assume I have a problem?"
"I was just asking LEO." Raph said pulling another beer out the fridge. "Bite my head off why don't you."
"You shouldn't drink that." Leo fussed at him. "When are you going to start taking some responsibility for your actions?"
Raph popped open the beer can. "I take plenty of responsibility for my actions. I've been working on my bike and the Hummer all day, but does anyone thank me. No."
"THANK YOU RAPH." Leo replied. "You're such a powerful force in this family. I don't know how we survived without you."
"Oh please." Raphael rolled his eyes. "If you didn't have me to bitch at all the time, you would swell up and die. You have nothing else to live for but to make my life miserable."
Leo sucked in a deep breath. "I don't have time for this." He said and walked off nearly running into Donatello in the process.
Donnie walked over to Raph. "What's his problem?"
"He needs to get laid." Raphael grumbled and walked off.
Donatello sighed. It was just a typical night in the lair. He was starting to get tired of it.
