"4th of July Beach Fun"
Stacy and her friends were talking about their 4th of July plans when Casey approached the girls.
"Why don't you all go to the beach house? I know how much you love to be on the beach for the 4th. Unless you want to come to see April's sister with us? The boys can go with you girls we know we can trust them with you. She just had a baby girl and name us the God Parents months before we are getting married to. Talk about lousy timing; well three of them we can trust not so sure about the 4th."
Stacy laughed.
"It'll give you practice Casey for when you become a father after you're married so that's not really bad timing. What do you mean by that he is not like that and I really wish you would stop thinking he is Casey?"
April slapped Casey.
"I told you to stop saying that Casey; he made a mistake and learned from it. Now I told you enough. Here Stacy here are the keys to the beach house; there is a grill in the shed. You all just have to do a little food shopping so you 8 can enjoy your 4th on the beach. There are only 4 rooms so you ladies have to share the room and bed with the guys."
Stacy hugged her cousin and smiled.
"Thank you April; have fun and take pictures please. See you on Tuesday. I am going to call Leo and tell him now."
Stacy ran up to her room and dialed Leonardo's shell cell. He answered.
'Hey Stace wuz up; no we really don't have anything planned for the 4th. Sounds good. Okay you four go do the food shopping. We'll meet you up there in about a few hours. You don't need to get pizza either Mikey is just going to have to eat the BBQ. Also make sure you get Gatorade that's basically what me and Raph drink. See you in a few hours Stace I love you.'
She smiled as she responded.
'Love you to Leo see you in a bit. Stacy out.'
~At the lair~
Raphael snickered.
"Well looks like I might be getting my 35 after all fearless. You've been avoiding Stacy because you know that you can't resist. I am so going to enjoy seeing you lose the bet. Let's see beach, ocean breeze, hot sun, you will not last. Too bad you can't avoid her now; if it's the same beach house then you will surely lose. Want me to tell you why; because there are only four rooms. You have to sleep in the same bed with Stacy. Also they have no air so you're as good as done."
Leonardo glared at Raphael.
"You know you're really starting to piss me off! I am not avoiding Stacy you idiot! We have been scoping the damn city to see if the foot is around. Did you forget what happened almost a year ago? Now shut the hell up about the damn bet; I am not going to lose so go cool off you hothead!"
Michelangelo sighed.
"Okay Leo chill out will you bro. We can assume that the foot is not planning anything yet. But we still have other enemies out there that want our shells. Now enough of this garbage about a stupid bet that makes no sense at all. Let's scope out the city one more time and then head out to the beach and meet up with the girls. Leo can we get some fireworks on our way up there please?"
Leonardo sighed.
"Yea Mikey we'll get some fireworks on our way up there. Come on you three let's go on our patrol and then head out to the girls. Raph I am not in the mood right now alright."
The four brothers went topside and used the shadows above on the buildings looking down. Leonardo spotted a group of foot ninja and signaled his brothers.
"Let's move now. I knew they were up to no good."
They jumped down and fought off the foot ninja. Groups of foot ninja attacked the brothers and Raphael grabbed one.
"Who the hell are you jerks working for? Answer me or I swear you will not be able to breathe. "
The foot ninja threw a smoke pellet and disappeared into the darkness. Raphael brushed the smoke from his face and looked at Leonardo.
"This is great; we have no friggin' idea who is leading the foot now. Now exactly what do we do oh fearless one?"
Leonardo sighed.
"We go meet the girls and figure out a way to find out ourselves when we come back to the city. Let's go everyone in my SUV."
They all got in Leonardo's SUV and headed to the store so Michelangelo could get his fireworks. Then they drove toward the beach house. Stacy was outside on the balcony looking out at the waves crashing against the shore and sighed as she sipped her tea. Isabella saw Michelangelo and ran to him greeting him with a kiss.
"I missed you all week. So glad you'll be here for the 4th with us. You also got fireworks; I love fireworks thought Stacy and the others try to keep me away from them."
Sumiko saw Raphael and hugged him tightly.
"Where you been all week? You didn't even call me at all. Are you mad at me or something?'
He sighed as he embraced her.
"No babe; just been patrolling da city with my brothers seeing if the foot are up to anything. I am not mad at you at all. This is a really nice beach house. I am actually a little surprised April let you ladies use it. Also am surprised Casey allowed it since he really doesn't trust Leo."
Sumiko looked.
"Why is that? I mean Stacy is April's cousin why is he so damn overprotective? Stacy is 19 now Raph. He can't keep treating her like a baby. I mean the poor girl has been into Leo since she was your friend years ago. I mean if he couldn't be trusted she wouldn't be with him would she?"
Raphael shook his head.
"No she would've hurt him pretty badly, but since Casey found out that Leo was with that dishonorable bitch Karai it's going to take a while for him to trust Leo again. "
Leonardo stood with his arms crossed glaring at Raphael.
"Are you quite finished telling my girl's friend how much I can't be trusted with Stacy? You're my brother and feel the same way to. Fine Raph be like that see if I give a damn!"
Leonardo stormed off and slammed the front door going in the dojo. Stacy heard the door slam and came in from the balcony closing the sliding door.
"What the hell just happened Mikey? I just heard the front door slam. Where is Leo?"
Michelangelo pointed to the dojo.
"He got into an argument with the hothead and came in slamming the door. Then he entered the dojo. So your best bet is to leave him alone Stacy. He is not in a really good mood right now. Just let him cool down so he doesn't lash out at you dudette. Get some rest Stacy."
Stacy looked in at the dojo watching Leonardo train and shook her head as she made her way up to her room to get ready for bed and fell asleep. Raphael and Sumiko entered the house and heard Stacy's bedroom door shut and saw the light go off. Donatello shook his head as he made his way up to Diana's room and laid on the bed closing his eyes. Diana exited the bathroom and laid down next to Donatello falling asleep on his plastron. He opened his eyes and kissed her on the forehead as she slept soundly on him as he held her close.
~In Sumiko's room~
Raphael was laying on the bed waiting for Sumiko to come out of the bathroom. She smiled as she got in the bed and leaned down to kiss him. He embraced her and kissed her deeply moving his hands tracing the shape of her body through her pajamas. His hands moved inside her pajama top and he slowly unbuttoned it kissing her lips moving his lips down to where her stomach was and right back up again around them causing her to moan low. Soon they fell asleep in each other's arms. Sumiko left her pajama top unbuttoned and rested her head on his plastron.
~Isabella's room~
Michelangelo was making out with her as she laid on her back moving his hands along the shape of her body through her silk pajamas. She closed her eyes as she embraced him tightly and pushed him down to the bed as she used her fingers to trace the cuts in his plastron. She brushed her hands along his biceps as they continued to make out with passion until they fell asleep.
~Stacy's room~
She sighed as she kept looking at her bedroom door and glancing at her watch. She couldn't sleep because she wondered what was going on with Leonardo. She quietly headed downstairs throwing her robe over her pajamas and noticed the balcony door open. She went outside and saw Leonardo gazing out at the sea as his blue bandanna blew in the wind. She came up behind him and grabbed his waist kissing him on the cheek. He grabbed her hands around his waist and smiled.
"Nice ocean breeze isn't it Stace? Why are you still up? What brings you out here?'
She smiled as she rested her head on his shoulder.
"I missed you all week, and was wondering why you didn't say hi to me when you got here? I saw your SUV pull up, but you never came and said hi to me. I was out here watching the waves crashing against the shore thinking about you Leo. It's not like you not to come and say hi to me. Are you mad at me or something? All week you haven't called me either, you always call me. Is there something on your mind? Leo I am your girl you can tell me you know. I hate being kept in the dark."
He sighed.
"You're not being kept in the dark Stace; and no I am not mad at you either. We have been patrolling the city all week trying to figure out who took over the foot after I fought Karai. They were up to no good tonight and we fought them. Don't ever think I am mad at you Stace; you would know if I am mad at you. Besides Master Splinter is still at his friend's house recuperating from the last battle with Shredder and his dishonorable bitch of a daughter. I have just had a lot on my mind lately babe; nothing against you."
She sighed as she asked.
"Leo when you told me that your relationship with Karai was serious; exactly what did you mean by that? Exactly how serious were you with her to make Casey not trust you with me alone?"
He shook his head.
"I really don't want to talk about it Stace. So please don't ask me again okay. All you need to know is I was stupid and made a mistake with her. Let's head to bed I am really tired babe. I told you don't ask me okay."
She entered the house behind him and locked up the sliding door and drew the shades. Then they headed up the stairs to Stacy's room. She laid in her bed after she took off her robe that covered her pajamas. He froze when he saw that they were see through and swallowed hard.
'No Leo stay in control; you have the best self-control out your brothers. Don't give in yet; she's only your girl for about 2 months it's too soon. Besides you will lose your bet against Raph and he will never let you live it down. You have to fight it.'
She smiled at him as he laid down next to her.
"Leo aren't you going to give me a goodnight kiss. You haven't kissed me since you got here. Are you sure you are okay?"
He smiled at her and leaned over to kiss her. She embraced him as she moved her hands along his biceps making him flinch. "
He smiled down at her and kissed her on the lips.
"Goodnight babe I love you see you in the morning."
She moved her head to his plastron and fell asleep soundly as he held her close as they slept. As he slept he sighed with relief.
'Well done Leo. You were able to control yourself. Now you have to keep in control till you go back to the city.'
~4th of July~
Leonardo was the first one up and felt proud of himself that for two days he was able to control himself as Stacy was asleep next to him. He made breakfast and put on the coffee.
'A few more days and you win the bet with Raphael.'
Around 1030 breakfast was ready and he headed upstairs and woke up everybody.
"Come on breakfast is ready and coffee and tea is also ready. After breakfast we have to set up for our 4th of July Beach celebration."
Everyone ate in silence and Raphael kept on looking at Leonardo suspiciously.
'How could he still be in control; he slept in the same bed with Stacy for two friggin' nights without the air condition too. How is that even possible. Both nights I almost made love to Sumiko. It was so hot and I kept sweating through the night and felt my shell tightening. How is he still able to control himself? He made love to Karai it is impossible for him to fight temptation when it's right next to him asleep.'
Leonardo finished eating and took the dishes to the sink and washed them. Stacy went outside with Sumiko to set up the chairs, towels, and umbrellas. Then Michelangelo and Isabella took out the fireworks from Leonardo's trunk and bought them in the house. Then Diana and Donatello put the food in the cooler with a lot of ice. Leonardo and Donatello carried the cooler out and Donatello looked at Leonardo.
"How are you feeling bro? Have you noticed that there is no air conditioning in this house at night?"
Leonardo looked.
"I am sleeping just fine; Stacy opens the windows a little before we go to sleep. Let me guess Raph sent you to ask me?"
Donatello shook his head.
"No Leo I was just wondering that's all. How can you sleep in the same bed with Stacy and not lose control? I have made out passionately with Diana every night we have stayed here. Michelangelo too, and we all know how Raphael is. How is it possible for you not to?"
Leonardo shrugged.
"It's called self-control Don, that is all it is. Okay TMI bro I didn't need to know that much. That is your three's problem not mine. I am going inside to get my swim trunks on, see you in a bit. Have you guys seen Stacy?"
Sumiko looked.
"She went inside to put her bathing suit on Leo. See you in a bit."
Raphael smiled slyly and entered the house behind Leonardo. Leonardo sensed him behind him.
"Will you knock it off already hot head! I am getting my swim trunks on Raph. Will you just go outside with the others I'll be right back. I need to bring the cooler with the drinks out anyway. Raph I swear you're so annoying just go outside will you."
Raphael looked at him with his arms crossed.
"Are you afraid I'll catch you in the act fearless. Is Mr. Self-Control about to lose his self-control and shake me off to cheat on the bet. When I know that you are about to break!"
Leonardo glared at him.
"No I am about to lose my temper and throw your shell across the damn room if you don't leave me the hell alone! You're pushing it Raph and you better stop before I injure you! You are on a very thin line and when it breaks I am going to hurt you! Now go outside with the others!"
Stacy overheard and glared at Leonardo.
"What bet? Why is he getting on your nerves; answer me Leo! What was the bet that you made with your brother about me? So that is the reason you have been avoiding me to prevent you from losing your self-control! You slept on the couch last night I woke up and saw you downstairs so stop playing coy with me Leo!"
Leonardo tried to explain when Stacy stormed off carrying the cooler with the drinks in it. Then she glared at Raphael.
"I hope you're happy; he's avoiding me again because of some juvenile bet."
She dove in the ocean and swam. Leonardo shook his head as he headed up the stairs and got his swim trunks on. Then he went outside and sat on his chair reading a book with his shades on. Michelangelo shook his head as he also dove in and tried to cheer Stacy up.
"Come on Stace it's the 4th of July. Don't let some stupid juvenile bet get in the way of you spending time with Leo. Look at him he's really upset about all this. Do you really want him to be like this on the 4th of July Stacy?"
She sighed.
"No of course not Mikey; I just don't like him avoiding me because he doesn't think he can control himself. Maybe I will go talk to him you're right."
Leonardo dove in and came up behind Stacy and grabbed her from behind kissing her on the cheek.
"Did you miss me babe?"
She stayed silent until he lifted up her chin. Then he smiled at her and their lips met. She embraced him and closed her eyes. Donatello came up behind them and splashed them both. Leonardo stopped kissing Stacy and dunked Donatello under chuckling.
"Oh you wanna play with water huh Don…. fine then here's some for you to."
The 4 of them were splashing each other while Michelangelo was chuckling. Isabella came up from behind Michelangelo and splashed him too. Michelangelo dove under and picked up Isabella throwing her further chuckling.
Out of nowhere Raphael grabbed Sumiko out of her chair and they dove in together. She giggled.
"Why you sneaky ninja! Get back here Raph I am going to kill you!"
He chuckled as he swam away.
"Gotta catch me first babe!"
Leonardo came up behind him and dunked him under chuckling as Raphael swallowed salt water.
"Leo that is disgusting; I am going to kill you fearless get back here!"
Sumiko grabbed him from behind and winked at Leonardo.
"Thanks Leo; now to get Raph back for throwing me in the water!"
She grabbed his waist and kissed his neck. She felt him cringe and laughed.
"Now what you gonna do!"
He grabbed her ass and kissed her deeply moving his hands to her bikini top. Leonardo seen it and splashed him.
"Go cool off Raph!"
After they swam for a bit it was now around 630. Michelangelo started the BBQ. Leonardo saw Stacy heading toward the house and saw Raphael making out with Sumiko on the sand. Michelangelo tapped his shell and whispered in his ear.
'Yo Leo if I was you; I'd take the opportunity now. He will be preoccupied for quite some time. The food will be ready in an hour. This way you will make Mr. thinks he knows you well eat his own words. Unless you just give him the 35 now. That is your choice bro.'
Leonardo looked as Donatello was also making out with Diana on their towel. Isabella laid on her towel and read a book as Michelangelo cooked minding her own business.
Leonardo made his way to the house quietly and went up to their room locking the door behind him. Stacy was struggling with her string bikini when Leonardo grabbed her from behind and started to kiss her neck as he slowly untied Stacy's bikini top causing it to fall.
"We've known each other for quite some time right Stacy?"
She smiled as she moaned soft.
"Yes Leo we are friends for almost 10 years. Why are you asking? What about your bet with Raphael? You do know if this happens he will know and you will be out of 35. Are you willing to take that chance? You've been fighting since the last time I was in this same bikini. Just as I have been fighting also."
Leonardo smiled slyly as he led Stacy to their bed kissing her with passion and untied the bottoms causing them to fall. She pulled down the bed and laid on her back. Leonardo slid off his swim trunks and went under the covers with Stacy. She gripped him tightly screaming his name. He cursed his lips over hers and sweat dripped off both their bodies as they continued across their bed. Thirty-minutes passed and they both fell asleep under the covers sweating bullets and all heated up. Leonardo's shell cell rang and he answered out of breath.
'Yea Mikey we're coming. Where are Raph and Sumiko? Okay we are coming. If he notices he gets his 35 if not his problem cause that bet ends tonight at midnight. We'll be right there.'
Stacy woke up and smiled at Leonardo kissing him deeply.
"Oh wow Leo that felt so amazing, can't believe we just did that. I never knew you had it in you to love that way! You knocked me right out when it ended. I always thought that Raph was the bad boy."
He got up and took a quick shower then he tapped her ass as he came out.
"Go on freshen up while I change these sheets. I am part human Stace and can do what they do just takes a lot more to turn me on."
She exited her shower and brushed out her long hair after she got dressed, then she turned toward Leonardo and kissed him deeply again. He smiled at her as he put the fresh sheets on the bed and grabbed her waist as they made their way out of the house. Raphael looked at Leonardo suspiciously.
"Are you gonna admit you lost or pretend that you're so damn innocent when you are far from it!"
Leonardo handed him his 35.
"Are you happy now you hothead. Come on let's eat. The fireworks go up in less than 15 minutes. Then Mikey and Isabella can shoot theirs before we call it a night. After they ate the turtles held their girl' waists as they watched the fireworks light up the sky. When the fireworks ended Michelangelo and Isabella shot their own fireworks as the others looked up. After the messes were cleaned everyone headed to bed and slept soundly throughout the night.
