Here we go! Next chapter! Enjoy!

Explanations

You guys get back to the lair and take Olivia to Donny's lab so he can take care of her. He starts cleaning all her cuts while you sit by her and hold her hand.

"[Y/N], I'm seeing giant turtles… right?" She mutters. You laugh a bit.

"Yeah. They're my friends. Leo, Mikey, Raph, and Donny." You say, pointing them each out.

"That's cool." She smiles. "I always heard the other Dragons talking about them. Never thought I'd meet 'em though."

"Nice to meet you too… I think?" Mikey says.

"Livy, what do you mean the "other Dragons"?" You ask. She pauses for a second, then bits her lip in pain when Donny cleans a bad gash on her head.

"You saw it, didn't you?" She asks after she sees your expression. You know she's talking about her tattoo so you slowly nod and she sighs. "Yeah. I joined the Dragons a while back. Um, Mom and Dad kicked me out after that. So I started looking for you. Anyways, one day when I was at HQ I heard Hun and Liam talking about the turtles and this new girl they befriended. After learning it was you, I tried to get a hold of you to warn you of their plan, but they got me before I could." She mumbles. "I really thought I was going to die up there. I was there for two weeks."

"Two weeks?" Mikey asks. "Wow."

"Yeah. But then you guys came and… Well, here we are now." She shrugs.

"You know you're always welcome with me Liv." You say.

"Thanks." She smiles.

"Well, I'm all done." Donny says, packing everything back in his first aid kit.

"Thank you." Olivia says, then hops down from the desk. Her stomach growls loudly. "Um, do you guys have any food?"

"Mikey, can you feed her? She probably hasn't been properly fed in a while." You say, looking at your orange clad friend.

"Sure! C'mon Olivia!" He says and takes her out of the lab and to the kitchen.

"Well, I'm pretty sure Master Splinter is going to need an explanation and now that we sort of have an idea of what's going on I should probably go speak with him." Leo says.

"I'll go too. I gotta talk to him 'bout something too." Raph mumbles. Leo nods at him and then they both leave. After a bit of silence between you and Donny, you sigh.

"This is too much." You say and sit up on the desk where you sister previously sat. You rub your eyes tiredly, then you feel a hand start rubbing your back.

"Hey, it's going to be okay, alright?" Donny says. "We'll figure it all out."

"Yeah, okay." You say. "What about all this… Liam stuff?" You see Donny's eyes narrow.

"He won't come near you while I'm still breathing." He says in a low voice. You look at him for a second before smiling. "What? I won't."

"I know Donny." You smile. You jump down off the desk and hug him tightly. He wraps his arms around your waist and buries his face in your neck. Your fingers start to trace the shapes and patterns on his shell. You feel so safe with Donny. It's just an effect he has always had on you. You just want to stay in his arms forever. To your disappointment though, someone clears their throat. You two break apart quickly and you look down to hide your blush.

"Hope we didn't interrupt something." Olivia smirks.

"Aw! They're so cute!" Mikey laughs.

"Mikey!" You say and chase after him.

"AH! [Y/N]! I was kidding! Stop chasing me!" He screams as you chase him around the lair.

"No!" You laugh.

"Michelangelo. [Y/N]. Will you join us in the living room please." Master Splinter says.

"Sure sensei!" Mikey yells and runs to the protection of his master. You cross your arms in defeat.

"Sissy." You smirk and skip over to the living room where everyone is gathered.

"I have asked you all to come so we can discuss a very important matter." Master Splinter says as you walk in. You take a seat next to Olivia on the floor. He takes a deep breath before continuing. "I think we would all feel safer if the girls stayed here with us." You and Olivia exchange glances while the guys go wide eyed.

"Have girls… living in the lair?" Mikey asks, wonder spreading on his face. "With us?"

"Yes Michelangelo, after what has happened today, I think it would be best if they stayed with us. Miss O'Neil has already informed me of a strange man watching [Y/N]'s apartment, and now that they view Olivia as a traitor, I believe it is not safe for them to stay in their home." Master Splinter says.

"Somebody's watching my apartment?" You ask. You remember seeing somebody sitting on the bench across the street, but you figured it was a blind man waiting for the bus… everyday. Wow.

"Yes." Master Splinter nods sadly. "Until Miss O'Neil says it is okay, I would like you two to live somewhere other than your current home. Miss O'Neil has graciously offered for you two to stay with her as well. I will give you a choice, live with me and my sons or with Miss O'Neil." He says. Everyone looks to you and you suddenly feel very self conscious. You start playing with your hair as a result.

"Umm…" You say.

"Master Splinter, I think maybe you ought to give us time to discuss this." Olivia says, pulls you up with her, and drags you in the kitchen. "What are you thinking, sis?"

"I don't know. I'm still shocked that someone is actually watching my house!" You say, sitting down at the table. You think for a second. "I think we should stay here. I'm sure it would put Master Splinter at ease to know we weren't above ground and we had the guys to protect us."

"Yeah. Well, it's whatever you want." Olivia says. You bite your lip and nod slightly.

"We're going to stay here." You nod in determination.

"Okay." Olivia says. You both go back in the living room and announce your decision.

"We've decided to stay here, if that's okay." You say. They all seem to release a breath they had been holding.

"That is fine. I hope you both make yourselves at home. Now, I am going to meditate. Leonardo, Donatello, will you please get them settled in?" Master Splinter asks the two teen turtles.

"Yes Master Splinter." Leo says and bows. Donny just nods in agreement.

"Thank you." Master Splinter bows back to him and then leaves to go to his room. You and Olivia follow Leo and Donny to a room that they use as an extra room. There is a bunch of storage stuff in there, but there are two twin sized beds and a dresser. It's actually not that bad. Donny gets you some sheets and things and you make both the beds.

"You guys good?" Donny asks.

"Yeah, we're good Don." You smile. "Thanks."

"No problem. If you need anything, my room is the one right next to this." He smiles before exiting. You fall onto your bed, exhausted after the day's events. Olivia smirks at you from over on her bed.

"You totally like him." She says. You just smile at her before turning over on your side.

"Roses are red, violets are blue, that's how I feel knowing you'll never love me, like I love you." You mumble to yourself, before drifting off into much needed sleep.

Aw, poor you! Actually thinking Donny would never love you. :( Well, I hope this chapter cleared some things up guys. Trust me, the next couple are going to be easier. It'll deal with the girls settling in, Olivia warming up to them, and stuff like that. So now it's question time!

Giai Kame asks: When do you plan on really adding romance in this story?

My answer: Hopefully, sooner than I planned. With things going the way they are, 'you' are going to need somebody to cheer you up and listen to you. Who's better for the job than Donny? Nobody as far as I know! So, of course chapters are going to have their cute romantic moments between you two, but I'm going to say about ten chapters before I really start getting into the real romance moments. Hope that answers your question! :)

Like every chapter, I thank my readers and special thanks to my reviewers, mr nice puppy, ZathuraRoy, and Giai Kame!

Bye!
