Part two of the visit, and to say a quick HAPPY BIRTHDAY to xxxNightwatcherbabexxxx one of my fav reviewers!
(Male Bonding)
Gwen woke up and smiled, rolling over to see . . .nothing. Mikeys side of the bed was empty. She huffed to herself wondering where he was. getting out of bed putting on some black sweats slippers and a tank top. There was laughing going on downstairs and heard her moms girlish laugh and also grandmas. The smell of food floated to the room and she smiled. Mikey did say he was going to impress Dad one way or another, and there was no one in this entire universe who could criticize Mikey's cooking. Brushing her hair quick she skipped down the steps.
"Morning sweetie" Her mom said smiling. Gwen smirked when she saw breakfast pizza and orange juice already sitting there in everyone spot.'
"Morning babe" Mikey kissed the side of her cheek.
"Someones been busy" Gwen sat down when Mikey pulled out the chair.
"Yeah, your mom and Grandma seem to like it and your Dad and the uncles were getting dressed, think he'll like it?" Mikey asked the women in a hushed tone. Gwen took a bite.
"I'm sure he'll eat more than one with the kind of cheese you used" Gwen giggled.
"If he doesnt I'll have his" Grandma said taking another piece. Mom giggled.
"Michelangelo was just telling us about your anniversary!" Mom sighed. She was a hopeless romantic and Gwen knew where she got it from. Gwen took out her necklace chain which had the ring Mikey gave her on it.
"Oh its beautifull" Both women chimed. Mikey blushed and put a hand behind his head. "Shucks" He smiled. Mikey was really outdoing himself, Gwen smiled when he sat down. His eyes were still blue and clear. In his human appearance he must've taken a shower, his blonde surfer like hair was combed through and he smelled good which meant he took a shower. If her dad didn't notice Mikey's trying to impress him, Mom would end up bringing it up. Once she saw the ring on Gwens necklace she was absolutely star struck. Her mother watched her daughter eat and flirt with Mikey at the table. He'd feed her a piece and she'd wipe something off of his with a napkin. Grandma noticed too after taking a third piece of breakfast pizza.
"Goodmorning family, and Michelangelo" Brian said walking in with wide open arms. He hugged his daughter still sitting in his chair, kissing grandma on the top of the head, and kissed his wife.
"Honey, Michelangelo made breakfast, wasn't that sweet of him?" Mom asked giving her husband a kind look.
"Oh . . .Pizza looks great" Gwen smiled at her fathers compliment.
Brian sat down and his wife watched him take a first bite. Mikey smirked thinking 'SCORE!'. He just got Gwens dad to eat his breakfast pizza and hes not complaining.
"So Michael today while the women are shopping would you mind helping us set up for the family picnic out by the lake?" Brian asked innocently enough. Gwen was a little suspicious and made a mental note to say something to her dad later.
"Sure thing Mr. Masterson" Mikey saluted.
"Please call me Brian" Brian assured him. Mikey nodded with a smile then a look at Gwen.
(NOT what he expected)
Raphael woke up but not to Just Lynnette this morning.
Last night when they just got in, they were getting 'into it' when there was a small knock on the door. Lynn threw her shirt back on and opened it. There was lilly in a little pink nightgown with purple p.j pants underneith, with pink socks. She had tears in her eyes and Lynn bent down to pick her up.
"whats up lilly pad why you cryin'?" Lynn asked sympathetically. Raph had run to the closet to throw on his pants and put on the belt and re-convert himself to human appearance. Luckily Lilly hadn't noticed anything. She put her head on Lynns shoulder.
"Mommy and Daddy left" She started sniffling and crying again. Lynn motioned to the tissues for Raph to get them for her.
"Aww did Daddy leave you here to be babysat? was that it?" Lynn asked softly.
"Yeah" Lilly cried in a higher pitch.
"Yeah" Lynn patted her back soothingly.
"They went to the grownups drink party without me" Lilly said taking the tissue Raph offered her. Lilly wiped her face with it and gave it back to him. He looked at it for a second before throwing it away, not very enthusiastic about the whole situation.
"Oh, Uncle scott and Aunt Sarah must be at the bar with everyone else" Lynn explained and Raph nodded.
"Honey, Daddy will be back soon I promise, probably in the morning to pick you up. Do you want me to tuck you in back in the room with your cousins?" Lynn bounced her up and down lightly one arm under Lilly the other rubbing her back.
"Lynnie can I sleep with you? Daddy forget to bring benji" Lilly said her tears almost stopped.
"Benji?" Raph asked.
"Her stuffed animal, a rabbit" Lynn explained. Raph had a feeling this little kid was gonna win, those eyes half spilling with tears was enough to make even HIM say yes.
"Would you mind if she . . .?" Lynn trailed off. Raph looked at Lilly who was already half asleep on Lynns shoulder.
"Yeah, I'll grab that extra blanket for er' " Raph said turning to go to the closet.
Lynn set Lilly down inbetween them in the middle so she'd be warm. He flicked the lights off hearing Lynn crawl in he moved to the other side of Lilly making sure to leave room to move around. Lynn bent over the already sleeping girl and kissed him on the forehead.
"Thanks tough guy"
"Yeah , yeah" He said pulled the covers up around Lilly and settling in.
Now that he was awake he did something he normally wouldn't do. In the morning he would wake up , or be woken up by Lynn. Now he watched her form move with her breathing, and Lilly was curled up underneath her chin and Lynn had an arm above her head and one over Lilly. Lynns deep brown hair shined in the sunlight that was coming through the window some past the curtains. He thought about how she'd make a great mom someday, if she wanted to be. But the thought of him having kids made him want to hit himself. he wasn't the fatherly type at least not in his opinion. His job and Lynns job didn't leave room for kids. He fought foot ninjas and Purple Dragons on a daily basis, going out on patrol and even put in life threatening situations. Sure he'd be able to get himself out but . . .Theres always that chance he wouldn't come home. Lynnettes job as a bartender/ bounty hunter didn't leave much room either. Bounty hunting was something to be taken seriously, she had to pad up with bullet proof vests and mace, sometimes even a gun. Chasing after guys who have a bad rap, guys who are violent, and facing jail or prison time ta amp up the tension. . . could end with her not coming home. That thought made him cringe a little, Lynn not coming home. He knew after the holidays were over, the girls would end up going back to the pent house apartment, he'd gotten so used to waking up to her he'd hardly remembered waking up without her. He remembered the feeling sometimes though . . . Being in the dark if he wasn't drunk or didn't pass out immdiately hitting the bed he'd stay up and think about what if felt like. Sometimes having to quit the Idea of sleep and go workout to lose the feeling of . . .bein' alone.
He crawled out quietly going to change, but keeping the same pants on. He kinda hoped to get out of the human thing last night, still wasn't used to the whole clothes on all the time Idea. He liked that Lynn liked him for who he was, and even put up with him on a regular basis.
His thoughts were interrupted when her eyes fluttered open and she stretched. Lynn looked down at Lilly who was still sleeping. Smiling softly she looked over to Raph putting a finger to her lips to be quiet. Lynn got out of bed carefully pulling the covers over lilly silently. Raph grabbed one of Lynns old stuffed animals and set it in with Lilly. They walked out and closed the door behind them silently.
"You hungry?" She asked him while he was putting on a ZZ Top t-shirt.
"Yeah" He nodded following her downstairs. A little enthusiasm in his step heading down. Lynn grabbed her purse and they both put on shoes. Lynn was still in the clothes she wore yesterday but didn't care.
"Where we headed?" He asked.
"Doughnut Run" Lynn replied with a smirk and a toss of the keys in the air caught them again without looking. They both got in and buckled up. She popped in a CD singing along to "Def Leppard"
'Now thats my girl' he thought when she threw her hair back against the wind singing with "Poor some Sugar on me".
When they reached the store she bought 3 boxes of doughnuts, one glazed, one with sprinkles, the other filled with boston cream.
"Would you take those to the Truck I'll be out in a minute"
"Okay" He took them and he noticed Lynn watched him walk out. Lynn waited till he was gone then went back and picked up a box from the Isle. She didn't want him to know she was getting it, quickly rushing up to the cashier and asking him to put it in a nonclear-paper sack. She paid for it and walked to the truck like nothing was up.
"We head out for the family picnic and everything today, so . . .Probably need to take a shower" Lynn said giving herself a whiff.
"Do I gotta dress nice or somethin?" Raph asked already eating a ,doughnut.
"Dress anyway you want to" Lynn smiled. He looked down at the brown sack wrapped up partially being sat on by Lynn. He wondered for a sec what was in it but let it go, probably girl stuff he figured.
Lynn put the boxes on the table when she got home and told her mom she bought breakfast while her mom was packing food and supplies for the family picnic.
"Your uncles bringing fireworks" Her mom rolled her eyes.
"Sweet" Lynn said rushing up the stairs. She wanted to get it done and over with. Grabbing some clothes from her room and rushing into the bathroom with the box. She pulled out one of the little sticks almost breaking open the box and dropping it to the floor. She turned on the shower and flipped on the radio. Reading the directions she heard the door knob turn and quickly rushed to it hitting it with her back.
"Lynn" A irritated Raphael growled behind the door.
"I'm using the restroom, just a minute" She said in a sweet voice as much as she could throw her patience in.
Raph stood outside the door waiting for Lynn to let him in. She sounded like she was racing or something.
"You alright you sound like a train wreck in dere" He asked knocking, hearing something fall over.
"Yeah I'm okay just one more minute" Lynn said . . .she was afraid to peer down at the tiny stick . . .one sign was all she needed just . . .one. She looked down and there was a tiny Minus sign. She smiled quickly throwing all the evidence away.
"Its safe now" She said to him. He opened the door and walked in, looking her over precariously. She stood in front of the mirror taking her necklace and earrings off. Still had clothes on. He pulled the belt off and clicked it turning back to his usual self. Lynn smiled feeling his strong arms envelope her from behind her. Leaning back against him.
"Whats dat?" He asked his eyes peering into the sink.
"Shit" Lynn said quietly, but he heard her. She forgot to throw away the orginial test.
He picked it up and looked it over , noticing the little blue minus sign.
"Pregnancy test" He said with a slight hitch in his throat, one minute a little afraid because it indeed was a pregnancy test, but relieved to see the minus sign.
"I still have to do another one to be sure" She said taking it from him and throwing it away.
"Do you want ta do that now?" He asked.
"Nah I can . . .I can do it later" She smirked feeling his arms and pulling them around her more. He gave a sigh of relief seeing the negative sign, but . . .she had to do it again to be sure.
"So . . .wanna shower now?" She said putting her arms behind her above and around his neck, He smirked kissing the tattoo on her neck pulling the shirt off. . .
(Mission Mikey Possible!)
Mikey had just finished packing all the stuff for the cabin trip Into Mrs. M's car. The girls werent due to come back from shopping for another while. Brian came out with the last cooler of drinks and set it in.
"thankyou Michael" Brian said dusting his hands.
"No problem" Mikey breathed, he had to stop himself from telling brian his name wasn't Michael but . . .he was trying to impress the guy, not correct him.
"So Gwen showed me the ring you got her, but its not an engagement ring?" Brian asked.
"Uhm no its a promise ring"
"Oh yeah, with what promise?" Brian asked.
Mikey didn't get to answer when the girls pulled up, Gwen came out carrying a few bags.
"Mikey would you help me carry some of this?" Gwen asked.
"Sure" Mikey took a few bags following Gwen upstairs.
When they reached the room Gwen quickly hugged him, he was a little surprised.
"Uhm love you too babe" He said awkwardly.
"Did he hurt you? yell at you? Threaten you at all?" Gwen asked worried.
"Uhm no . . .Not really no"Mikey said putting a hand on her shoulder and the other around her waist.
"Ok, because I was absolutely worried he'd use the time me and Mom were gone to do something horrible to you" Gwen said hugging him again then letting go.
"The only time he talked to me was like 10 minutes ago, dude wanted to know what promise the promise ring meant, thats all" Mikey said to assure her.
"(Gasp) Oh no" Gwen let go then down at the ring.
"Wha-What?" Mikey asked gulping.
"Hes gonna bother you about that, hes going to want to know if your going to propose or something . . ." Gwen smoothed her hair back worried.
"Its gonna be alright babe, if he asks any questions I'll know what to say"
"I know you will . . .Please promise no matter what he says . . .It wont discourage you, he just does this to every new person he meets" Gwen assured.
"I promise . . .now lets go!" He shouted pulling Gwen along.
"Why the rush?" Gwen laughed.
"YOUR MOM MADE PIE!" Mikey shouted , he smelled it the second she put it in the food cooler.
"APPLE DUDE!" Mikey laughed and Gwen smiled. Nothing could ruin his day if Pie was involved she thought shaking her head.
(Acting strange)
"I dont think I have this right" She said awkwardly.
"Your doing fine, just breathe and concentrate" He assured her.
Kira was taking meditation pointers from Leo and master Splinter. It was . . .different. She thought.
"Relax, and find your center" The wise old rat would tell her calmly. Kira tried to but got mixed up between what her center actually was. The center of her body? or something else? But she didn't want to ask for fear of sounding stupid in front of . . .
"Try not to think too hard, just be calm" Leo half whispered to her sitting a little ways from her. Kira couldn't hear his breathing, but watched while both Him and Splinter had theyre eyes closed like sleeping straight up. She tried to concentrate on one of the candles around them, instead of glancing at him every few seconds to see if he was looking. She took a deep breath, trying not to think. Picturing a white light, and it just surrounding her. She could hear her own heart thumping in her chest, feel blood pumping through her veins. . .and she tried not to lose the feeling when she heard his breathing . . .low and steady barely hearable if she wasn't looking for it. She was replaying in her head, his moves and performance the other day. Practicing on the wooden dummies and sandbags. the way his body moved, and how his muscles reacted to every jump and hit he gave out. His full focus and energy, like no one else was there . . .not even her.
"AHH! Woops, SORRY!"
"Donny!" Leo shouted. Donatello came in carrying a load of stuff and he slipped on something throwing things in the air above them. Kira felt something hit her backwards and she was on the floor a few thumps and hits against something hard abover her.
"Sorry" An apologetic donatello said.
"I think it would be wiser my son to not carry so much at once" Splinter said to Donatello handing him a few things. Kira opened her eyes to see Leo right above her. A few things heavy and metal along with a few paper and blueprint sheets surrounded them. He was looking down at her and she hoped that he didnt notice her mad blushing on her face. Leo blinked twice before almost shaking his head, he only meant to move her from getting hit but falling on her in the process instead.
"uhm . . Sorry" He said getting up and helping her up.
"Uhm . . .Thanks " Kira said a little quietly looking away.
"sorry guys, Kira I needed to ask if I could see your wrist a moment" Don asked gesturing to her arm.
"My wrist?" Kira asked.
"Yes, it'll only take a moment" he assured. Kira awkwardly showed her wrist to him and he looked it over, before taking a measurment with ribbon measure length and writing down something on a clipboard.
"Uhm . . .May I ask what your doing?" Kira asked.
"It'll make sense later" Don said gathering his stuff Leo taking some other stuff.
"I'll help you take them to the lab" He said.
"Kira you can take a break if you want" He said before walking out with Don.
Kira sighed helping Master splinter put candles away.
"Would you like some tea Miss Delowry?" Master Splinter asked her. Kira remembered how when she first saw him she was a little weirded out and wouldn't talk to him, or go near him for a while. Now she was completely comfortable, he was the grandfather type and she even watched Gilmore Girls with him a few times.
"Id really appreciate it" Kira faked a smirk, looking after where the guys had walked out. She followed the fatherly rat to the kitchen and helped by boiling the water.
Sipping green tea with a rat watching gilmore girls. Kira thought to herself humorously. How her life had turned around since she met the live funiture she chuckled silently.
"Oh no . . .I thought they were perfect together" Kira said to the t.v when Loreli and Luke the Diner guy broke up.
"Sometimes When Love leaves, it will show up in the most unexpected places , just when you think it has gone" Master Splinter said turning off the T.v. "I will be resting in my room if anyone should need of me" He said walking silently and slowly to his room.
"Thanks for the tea" Kira smiled. The wise rat smiled back and then left. Kira sat for a minute before deciding shed go play music for awhile and think. She needed to go change anyway, she was running to the local grocery store for some girl things for her and Elisa.
"Hey K" A friendly voice said walking into the living room area. Sitting on the chair on the side of her. Elisa in a workshirt and tightjeans taking her winter boots off. Her hair in a highponytail with a purple barette.
"Hey , How was work at the teletmarketing business?" Kira asked.
"Abusive . . .of the ears" Elisa said kicking off the other boot setting it next to the other one. Kira chuckled.
"Do you know why Donatello is measuring our wrists?" Elisa asked pulling the sleeve down on her shirt.
"He measured you too?" Kira asked.
"Yeah but he wouldn't tell me what for" Elisa said contemplating.
"Hmm not sure, Hey do you want to run to the store with me?" Kira asked Elisa.
"I'll go with you" A serious but friendly voice said before Elisa could answer.
"Sure I was going to stay here and help Don make something for dinner, since I dont have to work tonight" Elisa said shrugging.
"Ok" Kira said looking up at Leo a moment before getting up to go change.
"I'll be ready to go in 10" She said, and Leo nodded an 'okay' . Kira went into his room to put on a change of clothing thinking how kind of weird it was that he just interrupted like that. A part of her mind wanted to think that he . . .wanted to go just to be alone with her. But she pushed that thought from her mind shaking her head. She shouldn't let her hopes get high , or even consider the possibility, just because her friends were with his brothers didnt mean they were meant to get together. If it was all the same she made sure to wear a new shirt she bought recently.
"Your hopeless" She said to herself in the bathroom mirror checking- and rechecking her hair and eye makeup. Spritzing on a little perfume for added effect. Stonewashed jeans and a new black sweater, with black and white Hightop NIKES. A scarf for accessory.
"Ready?" A dressed and humanized Leo said adjusting his belt, the only device that was able to let him walk freely topside without being caught unless it broke or something happened to it. although Kira remembered Donatello explaining he made them heat proof, water proof, and almost indestructable unless put under a ton of weight and broken that way. She still had to adjust herself to the black hair and different skin pigment. But his eyes were the same, that deep hazel.
"Yeah" She replied and they walked out to the crystal energy run elevator leading up to the garage holding the battle shell disguised as a moving truck.
Elisa stretched and got up skipping towards the lab. Don seemed to be working on something lately, more than his usual. Like he was on some mission to perfect and finish whatever it was he was putting together. Well whatever it was . . . she thought he needed a break. Elisa walked in and he didn't seem to notice so she sat on edge of her bed watching him.
"Don" She said . . .He didn't seem to hear her.
"Don Sweetheart?" She said a tad bit louder but still gentle. His computer was running something making more noise while he was putting wires together on a little machine and a blow torch next to him on its side.
"Donatello" She a little louder.
"Don?" she said loud, knowing he was obviously really devulged in whatever he was tinkering with to not have heard her. Okay she thought 'time for plan B'.
"ADORABLE TURTLE SITTING IN FRONT OF ME" She said loudly. He turned around abruptly a little surprised, he lifted up his oggle eye glasses.
"that got your attention" Elisa laughed getting up off the bed.
"Sorry Ellie I was . . ." He trailed off with a smirk.
"Busy I know, sorry but I figured since everyones out we could make dinner?" she asked. He stood up with a smirk.
'aww he liked being called adorable' Elisa thought to herself at the grin she was getting from him.
They started in the kitchen making spaguetti. Elisa was cutting slices of french bread , Don behind her stirring the sauce.
"So you think I'm adorable?" He asked after thinking about it.
"mmhmm" Elisa nodded with a smile "And other things too" she giggled turning around to tease him she looked at the bread, he was turned looking at the sauce.
"Like what, may I ask" He asked nonchantley like it was just a curious question , really thinking 'he wanted to know'.
"Oh things like, Kind, Gentle, Intelligent, amazing. You know . . . nice things"
Elisa said turning to give him a wink after cutting all the bread into thick slices to be set out. Don smirked stirring the sauce again, he got that warm feeling inside again. It turned to straight butterflies when he felt a quick peck on the cheek while he wasn't looking. He put a hand to it smiling watching her walk to the bathroom playing innocent.
(Store issues)
"Now we need, body wash for females and everyones almost out of toothpaste" Kira said holding the small shopping basket holders on her arm Leo walking with her to the Isles. Kira and him talked about her getting the studio bought and paid for soon, so she could dance in it. When she asked him how he was doing lately he seemed distant but replied 'I'm fine just wondering how Raph and Michelangelo are doing'. Kira said that she was sure they were find and having fun being out in the world in the daytime and all that. She would catch him glancing at her while driving so she tried to stop looking to not make it obvious looking out the window instead. But secretly from the corner of her eye could tell if he was glancing or not, giving her that rush feeling. She was trying to decide between A bottle of Green body wash or Blue when she noticed his gaze changed. She followed his eyes and they were watching the end of the Isle.
"Leo?" She asked. His eyes moved to her in an instant "Yeah?" He asked.
"Do you guys have enough guy bathroom things an stuff?" She asked even though she wasn't going to ask that at all it was just something to get him to look at her quick, so she could see if he was troubled or not. His expression was hidden.
"Were alright for awhile" He replied when Kira put the blue bottle in the cart. Moving onto find the toothpaste. She watched him again, his head was turned her direction but she could tell he was paying attention to something else. Looking and listening for something. She stopped at the next Isle and his attention was focused down the Isle where a few people walked past. Were they being followed or something? Or was he just being extra cautious?
"Leo ? Is something wrong?" She asked.
"Hmm" He replied not heard her.
"IS something wrong?" She asked again.
"No " He replied dismally.
"You keep looking down the Isle like somethings bothering you" She replied her observation to him. He smirked and moved over.
"Yeah these prices" He replied picking up a deoderant stick.
"This is overpriced for what its worth, This stuff isn't even close to covering Michelangelo, but its one of the top brands" He shook his head with a half laugh. Kira gave a half laugh with him as he set the stick back down. She didnt buy it one minute, and was even kind of dissapointed he wouldn't say what was on his mind, she wanted him to talk to her, to confide in her. Like he lets her confide in him, but maybe right now thats out of range for him. She sighed moving on to the next Item on the List.
(Picnic)
Mikey had just outdone himself. He played an hours worth of frisbee with some of the younger family members of the Masterson clan. Little kids loved him, and he helped Grill the burgers. The family took to him like Pancakes and butter. The older women asking for hints if he was going to propose to Gwen, he would just wink and say he didn't want to ruin the surprise making them all get excited. The men complimented on his burgers and the little kids wanted to play more games. after this he was going to be EXHAUSTED.
"Hey Prince Charming, how you holding up?" Gwen asked giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"After this I'm gonna need a major snooze session, and a shower" He said sniffing himself. Gwen smiled leaning on him while he took a bite from his burger.
"I'm so proud of you, everyones been giving compliments about you. If your mission was to get my family to love you, you did it" she smiled huggin him.
"Good . . ." he breathed a sigh taking a last bite of his burger, He let go of Gwen to give out a large burp , making her laugh.
"And thats a sign that the tank is full" he said patting his stomach.
"Were going to pack up to head home soon" Gwen patted his shoulder.
"Alright" he breathed out with a smile, proud of how the day went. There was no attack of questions from Gwens dad and the rest of the family seemed to like him, right now things were lookin' up.
When they reached home, Mikey told everyone goodnight and Gwen headed upstairs to shower.
"Be there in a sec" She winked. He smiled knowing what that meant.
"Today was a goooooooood daaaaaaaayyyy" He stretched upwards ready for bed.
"Brian your not being fair to him . . . " A voice behind the door leading to Brians office said. Mikey could make out the voice of gwens mom.
"Helen look at the guy, he makes a living dressing up and dancing for kids at birthday parties. Hes never gone to college or a real school for that matter. He reads comic books and skateboards for cryin' out loud at his age?" Brian said exhasperatingly.
"Well I think hes great just the way he is, He makes Gwen happy and hes a complete gentlemen. Brian dont you see the way he looks at her? They love eachother theres nothing you can do about that" Helen said snapping back.
'you Go Helen' Mikey thought cheering for Gwens mom mentally.
"Helen I dont want this guy bumming off our daughter in 20 years. Pregnant with a guy who has no real job and no college education. I personally just dont think hes right for our Gwen". Brian said giving his full opinion making Mikeys happy bubble from today . . .pop.
"Well You know Brian I think your jealous of him, Gwen is in love with Michelangelo and you have a problem with that. Shes not a little girl anymore Brian shes 21 years old for cripes sake"
"Exactly thats too young to be wanting to get married, shes wearing that ring around her neck not knowing what compromise it'll lead to later"
"Oh your being a drama king! If Gwen wants to marry Michelangelo than thats her decision. They are in love and theyre serious about it. Brian we started seeing eachother at 19 . . .and your telling me that Gwen is too young?" Helen said disbelievingly.
"I just think. . ." he started
"No I think your just afraid of Gwen getting married and intimate with a man. She'll still be our daughter Brian, but At least I know she'll be taken care of whether you believe in Michelangelo or not" Helen said putting her footdown on the subject.
Mikey walked back to the bedroom waiting for Gwen suddenly not so enthusiastic anymore. Gwen got back from the bathroom, her hair wet from the shower and she smelled Great. Mikey smiled but still couldn't get what Brian was saying out of his head. Gwen put a hand on the side of his face. "Something wrong?" She asked. Mikey shook his head slightly. Gwen pulled up onto his lap on the bed and gave him a quick kiss. She got off so he could change and take off the belt and gain his natural appearance back.
"Theres my turtle Titan" She smiled hugging him. When they got into bed he put an arm over her side and rested his chin above her head. Thinking of what her parents said . . .That small hope of wanting to get Gwens dads permission to ask to marry his daughter suddenly became a hopeless cause.
"Love you" Gwen whispered.
"Love you too dudette" He smirked drifting off to sleep, with the smell of her coconut shampoo lingering around her.
(Fireworks)
"STOP! NO!" Lynn was laughing and running away from some of her littler cousins with water balloons it was twilight time and almost time for fireworks. Raphael asked for one and chased her with it. He threw it at her, but she got back at him with a garden hose on full blast. They tackled and wrestled eachother until he had her pinned to the ground.
"You seem to like this position" Lynn teased.
"Too bad were in fronta your family" He teased back growling in her ear. She leaned up and nibbled on his neck before they both were pelted with waterballoons.
"Thats it ya lil munchkins!" Raph jumped up grabbing a few balloons chasing the little kids. Lynn watched shaking her head, little lilly laughing but screaming when Raph scooped her up and started running from the other kids trying to get her back.
"HEY! Lynn Kareoke Come on!" One of her aunts shouted. Lynn smiled heading to put on a sweatshirt.
After chasing the little kids, one of the uncles gave Raphael a beer.
"wheres Lynn?" Raph asked looking around.
"Stage, they always do a little singing during the fireworks" One of the uncles replied. Raph took a sip of his beer when a rocket was set off shooting yellow sparks into the air showing up everything below in its light little kids running around excited adults in lawn chairs with drinks watching. Music started and Raph smirked as Lynn had her guitar with her onstage. Music started playing and he noticed she winked at him.

Everyone clapped and shouted. Some whistled and Lynn shouted into the Mike "Any Requests?"
"ACHEY BREAKY HEART!" Someone shouted. Gwen shook her head.
Friday night beneath the stars And sometimes we don't say a thing And I know everything about you I'm only up when you're not down Well, you drive me crazy half the time Just a small town boy and girl And I don't try to hide my tears And you know everything about me I'm only up when you're not down Well, you drive me crazy half the time When Im with anybody else That I'm only up when you're not down Well, you drive me crazy half the time And Im only me
In a field behind your yard
You and I are painting pictures in the sky
Just listen to the crickets sing
Everything I need is right here by my side
I don't wanna live without you
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
Living in the crazy world
Trying to figure out what is and isn't true
The secrets, all my deepest fears
Through it all nobody gets me like you do
You say that you can't live without me
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
And I'm only me when I'm with you
Its so hard to be myself
And only you can tell
Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground
It's like no matter what I do
The other half I'm only trying
To let you know that what I feel is true
Who I wanna be
Well, Im only me when Im with you
With you, oh, yeah
After the last song Lynn joined Raph on the hillside by the baseball field while the fireworks were going off. He was going to take another swig of his beer but it went missing from his hand , he looked up to see her take a drink then hand it back before she layed down using his stomach for a pillow. His hand played with her hair and the other was being occupied by her hand while she held the beer. Both looking up . . .Life was bliss.
'I could get used ta this' He thought feeling her kiss his cheek laying in closer to him, he accepted by laying his arm out for her to lay on watching the colors shoot off.
