Chapter 38- Revenge (Part 2)
KARAI POV
I run across the rooftops just above Raphael and Mona. School was just let out and I sent Leo home with our backpacks, telling him that I just had to run to the store. He was hesitant about letting me go by myself, but when I reminded him that I am a full trained kunoichi, he let me. I have been following Raph and Mona for about two blocks now and I'm really starting to get tired. I grimace as they turn into an alleyway. I study the couple carefully as the turn into the dark passageway. Raphael turns his back to Mona as he illegally lifts up the manhole cover. I take this as my one and only chance to get revenge.
I leap down into the alley and throw my victim up against the brick wall. Mona. I hold her by the neck as I snarl at her.
"WHY THE HELL DID YOU DO IT?! STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM HIM!" I scream in her face. Mona Lisa struggles to breath as my hands clutch her think neck with razor sharp claws and firm hands.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!" Raphael shouts as he pushes me away from his girlfriend. He clutches Mona as she regains her breath, her breathing slowly steadying. "What the hell was that about?" Raph demands angrily. Steam blows out of my ears and I can feel my face reddening.
"It was about your girlfriend has been doing with my boyfriend!" I shout an answer. Raph raises an eyebrow at me in confusion and his jaw stands slightly open. "She kissed him the other night."
"Wait? Mona would never kiss Leo! She's my girlfriend and she wouldn't turn on my like that." I shake of a head and words of denial are all Raphael has to offer.
"Yeah, well, she did, Raph." I am shocked to hear Leonardo's deep voice standing behind me. My boyfriend turns from his disbelieving brother to me, his lying girlfriend. "And you said you were just running to the store." Leo's stern look doesn't faze me at all, but what does is Mona's furious glare.
"Leo! I said I was sorry and not tell anyone!" Mona yells furiously. "No you didn't! You kissed me and ran away! I can't just forgive that!" Leonardo argues.
Raphael steps out between the two. "EVERYONE STOP!" All of us freeze, shutting up quickly. "Now, somebody tell me what the hell is going on."
Leo steps forward, moving towards his brother. "Okay, so the other night I was walking home from the store and I was pushed into an alleyway. It was Mona and she kissed me and then ran away."
Raphael turns to his girlfriend. "Is that true?"
"Yes but I have a good reason for it." Mona admits. Raphael glares at his girlfriend for such betrayal. "Well, what is that reason?" He demands.
I shiver as a cold gust of wind blows into the alleyway. All of us are wearing coats and gloves, snow is on the ground. It's mid December, a break from school is just around the corner. Only one more week and then a two week break.
"Guys, if we're gonna talk can we go somewhere warm?" I ask as I run my hands up and down my arms, trying my hardest to ease the cold.
Leonardo nods in agreement. "Why don't we go to Starbucks? It's just a block away." We all nod in agreement and walk in silence towards the coffee shop. Leonardo wraps his arms around me, holding me close, as we walk. I feel much warmer now that he's so close to me. I lean into the warm embrace.
I can almost feel the baby growing in my stomach, but I know that it's just my imagination. Next week I'll be in my eighth week and that means I'll have to wait about four weeks for the bump, and even then it's barely noticeable. We won't find out the sex until the fourth month, and I'm half way through my second. Only another two and a half months.
We walk into the Starbucks and I reach for my wallet in my back pocket. Leonardo grabs my hand though and flashes his wallet at me. I grin at him. "I'm buying today." He corrects my attempt to pay for myself.
"I'm 16 with a baby on the way, I'm pretty sure I can buy my own coffee." I point out. Leo shrugs. "Yeah, but I like spending money on you." I lean in and give him a quick peck on the lips before turning to the menu hanging on the wall.
"What do you want, princess?" Leonardo asks me after a couple minutes.
"For you to stop calling me that." I say playfully. "Argument denied. What drink do you want?" Leo asks, trying again.
"A tall Iced Flavored Latte." I answer. Leo nods, "I think I'll try that too."
I hold his hand as he orders or drinks and I frown as he removes his hand from my grip so he can pay. But as soon as he hands the cashier the money, his hand is back in mine.
Mona and Raph stand behind us, Raphael glaring at her and Mona staring strait ahead with a guilty look on her face. As me and Leo get our drinks and walk over to an open table, the angered couple goes up to pay for their own drinks.
I sit down in a booth and Leo sits next to me. I take a sip from my latte and let out a sigh of refreshment. Leo chuckles at my reaction to the bittersweet drink.
"Think Raph will forgive Mona?" I ask.
Leo shakes his head. "Raphael has never been very quick to forgive. Even with loved ones."
I frown. I couldn't imagine Leo not forgiving me. Though, I probably wouldn't forgive him if he kissed another girl, no matter how sorry he was. So I guess I won't be able to blame Raph is doesn't accept the apology.
Mona walks over to the table and sits across from me. She looks back and forth between me and Leo. "Leo, I'm really sorry. I would never have done it if it were up to me." I perk up. "What do you mean if it were up to you?" I ask suspiciously.
Raphael comes and sits down next to Mona, but not too close. There's a noticeable distance between the two, and it obviously unwanted by Mona. I can see it in her eyes.
"So, what's your good reason for kissing my brother?" It really sounds pretty bad when you put it like that. Not that it isn't bad already.
"Okay, so my parents invited a couple friends over and they brought their kids. We all went up to my room, leaving the adults in the living room to chat about work and financial institutions. When we went into my room I was talking to one of the girls, Ally, and I told her about Raph. She asked if he had siblings and I answered. After awhile, someone suggested truth or dare. Everyone wanted to play, and I didn't want to sound selfish or anything for making them not play because I didn't want to. So we started playing and they dared me to kiss one of Raph's brothers. I didn't want to but it was either that or remove a piece of clothing, so I went for the dare. I'm really sorry. I really am." Mona explains while spinning her cup in her hand. The table is silent while we all soak up the new information. Wow, just, wow.
"Is that really what happened?" I ask just to be sure. Mona nods. "Can you guys forgive me." I nod my head and Leo does to. It's all eyes on Raphael as we wait for his response.
"I can't forgive for that." Raphael grabs his drink and walks towards the exit. Mona stands up and rushes towards him, but doesn't catch up in time to stop him. "Just let him go, Mona. He'll come around, I promise. He just needs some time." Leonardo says assuringly. Mona nods in understanding, but I can see the hurt in her eyes.
