Chapter 7. Kisses.
Mikey sat at the Kitchen island rubbing his head. It was tender after Raph caught him and rubbed his hard knuckles into his skull. The two often fought like this, it was playful but this time the jabs did feel a little harder on Raph's part.
Mikey looked over his shoulder to Raph and KJ who were perched on the couch together. Raph had his arm around her, he looked a little awkward which was understandable, he'd never been in this position before and was just going by what he had seen in movies and on TV.
Mikey smiled to himself, he was pleased for his brother and glad that he had a chance of a relationship. It was something that none of them thought would ever happen to any of them.
He turned back to his drink and sighed a little as he took a sip of his tea that Lucy had made him. It was good, better than the stuff that Leo made, it was milky and sweet, just how Lucy liked it. He noted this in his head, everything that she said she liked he had made a mental note. She was in the bathroom leaving Mikey to ponder over what he should do to win her over. He knew now that she liked him, and she knew that he liked her, the only issue now was, who was going to make the first move?
Lucy appeared from the hall and Mikey's whole mood changed, he sat up with a huge smile as he saw her look over to Raph and KJ. She smiled then made her way over to Mike and the kitchen island.
"Good pee?!" He said. He cringed immediately as the words left his lips.
Lucy grinned, "Yeah! One of those that makes you sigh in relief!"
He chuckled.
She had figured out how Mikey worked. He was innocent kind and friendly and he fed off the same kind of energy. She could tell that sometimes he said things spontaneously which could cause him embarrassment, so she would just go with whatever he'd say and respond accordingly, she'd also make sure not to look creeped out if she didn't quite get what he was saying and avoid looking at him in a weird way. You could tell that Mikey appreciated this, he knew he let his mouth speak before his brain had chance to catch up, but he didn't know if Lucy was reacting this way to be kind, or if she was genuinely at ease with him being the way he was. Either way it didn't matter to him, he was talking to a girl, a pretty girl that he was attracted to, a pretty girl that was attracted to him! it was all good.
She smiled at him and he dreamily smiled back.
"Hey Mikey, you wanna see something cool?" she said as she moved over to the cupboards.
He watched as she pulled open the door and pulled out a plastic basket that was filled with goodies, his eyes then went to her rear as she opened the fridge and moved some sodas and bottles of water over to the kitchen counter and put some of the drinks into the basket too.
"Erm, yeah! Sure!" he said, allowing his eyes to move back up to her face.
"Ok!" she said as she turned with the basket in her arms, "…follow me!"
As she started to make her way from the kitchen, Mikey ran around to her and took the basket from her to carry. She smiled at him shyly as he moved to let her lead the way.
They walked past KJ and Raph and up the stairs to where Jan's bedroom was. They continued to walk past it to another door that was hidden away at the back of the building. Lucy pulled out a key and unlocked the door, they continued up some more stairs to another door that she unlocked with the same key. She pushed the door open that led out to the roof. Mikey walked out to see the beautiful, secluded roof garden.
"Wow!" he said surprised by what he saw.
"I know, right?" said Lucy, "…no one can see in, so it's great for you guys if you want to get some sun and chill out up top without having to worry about being seen."
She took the basket from Mikey and set it down on the floor where she laid out a comfortable soft blanket for them to sit on and have a little picnic. Mikey was still looking around; his mind was blown.
"…this isn't the only thing though…" she said with a grin. He looked at her as she grabbed his hand and led him through the garden to a large green house. The doors were already open, and Mikey's eyes widened as he saw a generously sized swimming pool.
"…whatcha think?!" said Lucy with a huge smile.
Mikey looked at her then back at the pool, "…This is great! And you're ok with us using it? This and the garden?"
"Of course," she said back, she was so pleased that he was happy, "…you're our friends, you can use these whenever you want!"
"Friends huh?" he said quietly, feeling down.
She took his hand again and moved in closer to him. He felt his chest and his shell tighten at the feel of her skin close to his, he swallowed hard. The two looked at each other before Lucy moved closer still.
"KJ said that you guys have never had girlfriends, that right?"
Mikey let out a high pitched squeal then cleared his throat to answer, "yea-right!"
"So, you've never kissed any one either then?" she said switching her eyes between his and his mouth.
His eyes locked on to her lips and he quietly mumbled in a dreamy tone, "mmm-meh"
She pulled away from him for a second and their eyes met again. "…interesting."
Mikey could feel his nature rise at the feeling of excitement. Was she going to let him kiss her? This was a huge deal for him, nothing like this had ever happened to him before, he had never been this close to a woman. This was something unprecedented. She had stopped getting closer to him now though, it was as though she was giving him access but she wanted to be met half way.
In Lucy's mind she was making things easy for him to take advantage of the situation. She wasn't going to push any further however, as she didn't want to pressure him. This might be a big thing for him, and she wanted it to be his choice. The offer was there for him to take. She was offering herself up.
"Can, can I, can I kiss you?" he asked nervously.
Lucy smiled up at him and nodded as she tilted her head towards him. He swallowed as he too moved his head towards her.
she closed her eyes waiting for contact, but it never came. She opened her eyes to see him staring at her. She pulled her head back straight to look at him and he blushed.
"I, I don't know what to do."
She then realised that this overly confident mutant was all fluff, he was used to putting on a show and being the jokester but deep down he was innocent and very unexperienced. She understood that she would have to teach him, and she was happy to oblige.
She smiled up at him and took his face in her hands, "here, let me help you, just feel, and go with me, ok?"
She closed her eyes and gently put her lips to his. He closed his eyes too and concentrated on her movement. Carefully and slowly, she caressed his lips with hers and she felt him gently place his hands on her waist. She moved into him more until her body was flush with his. She then pulled away from his kiss still with her eyes closed.
"ok, so now, open your mouth a little with mine and don't be afraid of a little more pressure,"
Mikey nodded; his eyes also still closed.
She placed her lips back on his and continued from where they left off. Slowly she opened her mouth and he followed suit. Still with her hands on his face she tilted his head slightly allowing for a better position for his larger mouth. Then she gently slid her tongue in and lapped his tongue with hers. His eyes shot open at the feeling, he was surprised and immensely turned on! He followed her lead and mimicked her tongue movement as his eyes closed and he concentrated on the feeling again.
Lucy had never really paid much attention to kissing, it was just something you did before getting to bigger more important things, nothing other than a kiss. Now however, because this was the focus, and she was teaching it to someone else, the arousal factor had upped its game, and she had never realised just how hot kissing could be!
The two continued to kiss, the feeling becoming more intense. They had started to move a little too, and it wasn't long before Mikey's hands were in her hair and her hands were caressing his neck and shoulders.
Lucy's heart was racing, and Mike could feel it. Mikey and the guys had a multitude of heightened senses. They were able to sense other feelings like when someone was sad or scared, they were able to predict an opponent's next move and also sense when danger was near, they didn't however realise until meeting April that they were able to tell when a female was ovulating or on their period, after finding this out April would stay away when it was her time of the month, just to save the embarrassment, but now, Mikey was realizing that they were able to sense the opposite sex's arousal which in turn made their own arousal increase and at this point Lucy's knickers were sodden!
Suddenly Lucy broke free from this intense make out session and both her and Mikey looked at one another panting, trying to catch their breath.
"What is it?" said Mikey, his grip on her tightening, still keeping her close to his body, not wanting her away from him, "…did I do something wrong?"
Lucy shook her head as she tried to speak, "no, not at all, the complete opposite. It's just, this is getting really intense, and I don't want to push it, that's all."
Mikey nodded, he understood, he loosened his grip and she slid away from him.
They continued to look at each other as Lucy pulled her hair from her face and continued to catch her breath. Mikey adjusted his hoodie to help disguise his erection, it was difficult though due to the size.
"Oh man, that was amazing…" said Mikey as he too continued to breathe heavy, "…I mean, I have no means of comparison but, wow!"
Lucy chuckled, "well, to say you've never kissed anyone before…" she put her thumbs up, "…good job!"
The two were silent for a moment, still coming down from their embrace.
Then, they looked at each other.
"I wanna do it again!" said Mikey excitedly!
"Me too!" Lucy spat!
The too crashed back into each other and started kissing hard again.
"Is it meant to be this good?" asked Mikey in between kisses.
"I've never known it be as good as this, ever!" said Lucy as she smiled through the kiss.
"Can we do this all the time?" he asked as he started to be a little more adventurous and pepper her neck with tender kisses.
"Definitely!" she said before they went all in again and kissed harder.
Lucy's eyes shot open, and she suddenly pushed Mikey away from her. He held on to her arms, he had no idea what was happening. She looked down between them both and Mikey followed her stare.
She then looked back up at him, her eyes wide as they lock back with his.
"What the fuck is that?!" she said, Mikey couldn't tell if she was shocked in a good way or a bad way.
He gave a little embarrassed smile as he looked around, "In my defense, you are totally hot! And I have never done this with anyone before, and I never knew that, erm THAT, could actually do, well, that!"
They both looked down again and she moved a little closer.
"Wow," she said quietly, she couldn't believe what she was looking at. "…So, is it actually that size? or is that your jumper?"
"I've never called it a 'jumper' before, but you can call it whatever you want babe! I mean, I can make it twitch so, I guess you could call it a jumper!"
Lucy looked at him with confusion, "no Mikey, I mean your hoodie? sweatshirt? In the UK we call those things jumpers,"
"Oh? Oh!" he blushed.
"So, is that your dick I can see through your shorts or is it your, jumper?" she asked again.
Mikey's head shot up at her, he was talking to a girl about his dick! He couldn't believe it.
"Well, it's actually, erm, well, it's kind of restricted in there, my underpants are keeping it from coming out and my jumper is covering it and why are we talking about this?" he said worriedly, he still didn't know if she was freaked out.
She looked up at him, he looked so confused.
"I could feel it against me, you tensed up and I felt it move, it freaked me out, I didn't know what it was until…"
She saw Mikey's face drop (like when he gets called a monster in the bay 2016 movie)
"I didn't mean like that, its just the size and the movement and…"
He pulled away from her and adjusted himself, covering his bulge again with his jumper, he felt disgusting.
"Mikey, please…"
He moved away from her and looked out towards the garden.
Lucy sighed. He had gotten her all wrong. He was so used to people calling them freaks and monsters he assumed that that was what she saw. She didn't want him to think that, not at all! She fancied the hell out of him, and she was gonna prove it!
"That's it!" she pulled her top up over her head and took off her trousers then threw them at him. He felt the garments hit his arm and watched as they dropped to the floor.
"What's that?" he said as he looked back at her, he had to double take when he saw her stood in just her bra and thong. His eyes widened as he turned and looked her up and down.
She walked toward him, her skin goose bumped, and her nipples hardened at the cool breeze.
"Now that I have your attention, let's get a few things straight," she continued to move towards him, "…and I want to make this very clear, so that we don't have this issue again…"
Mikey swallowed hard as his eyes moved up and down her curved body and voluptuous ass and breasts.
"…I don't think you're a monster, I don't think that you're a freak, but what I do think is that you are one hot and sexy mutant!"
His eyes locked with hers, she thought he was sexy?
"…one of the things that turns me on about you is that your not like other guys, your different, and I like different," She smiled and bit her bottom lip.
Mikey's hard on was the most intense it had ever been, and it was begging for release from its confines!
"…the fact that you are what I call a beast, makes me wet, makes me realise that you can do things that no human man can, and that is fuckin hot!"
Mikey was so turned on by what she was saying, calling him a beast was better than 'freak' or 'monster' and it helped massage his ego, and he felt a serge of energy buzz up his spine.
When she reached him she slowly slid her hands up his plastron and felt a rumble leave his chest.
"I do look at you differently, I'm not gonna lie," she said whilst looking up at him, he didn't know what to do or where to put his hands, "…but it's with admiration, with curiosity, amazement! I look at you and think about what it would feel like to have sex with you,"
Mikey gulped. His hard drive was starting to overload, and he didn't know how much more he could take!
She looked down between them both again, sliding her hands down to his shorts as his eyes followed them. She hooked her fingers into the elastic waist band then looked him back in the eye.
"Does it wanna come out and play?" she said seductively.
Mikey's mouth opened but there were no words, only a high pitched squeak followed by him licking his lips and swallowing again.
Warning! Error 404 Mikey style has interrupted this broadcast!
Lucy smiled, she had him back with her. She looked back down to where her fingers were, as did he. She tugged at the elastic of his shorts with one finger then hooked the elastic of his underpants with the other. As she pulled to look in and "release the beast" so to say, she felt Mikey grab her face and press his lips to hers. He kissed her passionately, prompting her to release her hands from his clothing and up to hold on to his forearms as he pulled her closer.
"We don't have to do this," he whispered as he pulled his lips away from hers for a moment, "…I know you don't look at me like other people do, but I don't need you to prove it to me that way."
She looked up at his sad blue eyes, then caressed his cheek with her hand.
"I'm happy to do whatever you want, whenever you want," she smiled.
He nodded. He wanted her so bad, but this was something amazing for him, he wasn't ready to rush this with her. She had made it clear to him that she wanted him too, the same way he wanted her and that in its self was the best thing to ever happen to him. He wanted all of it, the relationship, the love, the sex, the feeling that he felt for her right now, for this to last forever. This was something he thought would never happen, something special. He was more than happy to continue with the hot make out sessions for now.
He looked her up and down for a moment as he rested back on an old flower bed table, he pulled her into him so that she was leaning on his body, with his arm around her waist. He then smirked at her with that signature Mikey smile, "You're hot as hell, ya know that right?"
Lucy blushed. Hearing him say stuff like that to her was beautiful.
This was different for her. In her past, guys would take what they could from her, they never seem to care about taking things slow or carefully. It got to a point where she expected it, nothing more than one night stands. She found that as soon as the deed was done, the guy would disappear and she was out on her own again, loveless. It didn't matter to her now, the guys she had been with recently were just good fucks to her, she used them to settle a craving just like they would use her. She wasn't going to let her feelings be played with. But not all the guys she slept with were bad. She had friends with benefits, but that's all they were, no strings attached, just sex, as and when she wanted it, no relationship, no one's feelings being hurt. Lucy wasn't sex crazed however, she had lots of things that took president over that, but if she needed it, she got it!
Mikey was different though. She did not get the same vibe from him. He was genuine. She didn't know if he was a fluke, or maybe it was down to how Splinter had raised him and his brothers. She was thankful either way. She didn't feel like she had to keep her feeling separate, she found it easy to fall for him, like an effortless intake of breath.
The two looked at each other with smiles as they held one another. He noticed her skin bubble as the breeze hit. He had so many questions for her but that could wait, right now though, being sat with her so close to him was better then anything he had ever experienced.
He moved his hand to touch her goose bumps but then stopped. She watched him as he tackled the action in his head, thinking if he should touch her or not, if it was right or wrong, and if he was allowed to.
"You can touch me Mike,"
He looked at her, he was clearly at odds with himself.
"I' don't want you to think that you're not allowed…" she continued, "…if I don't want you to touch me, I'll let you know."
He nodded, then gently placed his fingers on her upper arm, feeling at the bumps that had risen on her skin. He sighed deeply at the texture and warmth. Her skin felt like peach skin, smooth with a little fuzz, where her hairs had stood on end at the cold, and his touch.
"Wow," he said lowly. This was so new to him; she had awoken a whole new area in his brain that was overloading due to the new access of things that only she could give him. He was literally like a kid in a candy store!
He moved his fingers lightly down her arm to her wrist and hand. He then moved his hand all the way back up to her face, cupping it and pulling her in for a slow lingering kiss.
His erection was less now, but it was still there, and it twitched every now and again when she touched him, or he touched her.
He pulled away from there kiss again and looked at the beauty in his arm.
"Lucy, is this? are we?…" he scratched the back of his head nervously as he tried to find the right words, "…because of what we're doing, does this mean something?"
Lucy squinted her eyes at him, trying to decipher what he was trying to say.
"…I mean, its totally cool if we're not, ya know. Do ya know? What I'm trying to say, I mean…"
She sat up on him, turning a little more into him so she could see him better, but she still didn't know what he was saying.
"…I guess what I'm trying to say is, this fooling around, what does it make, us?"
Lucy clicked and she smiled at him.
"We don't need to put a label on it if you don't want to," she said as she rubbed a finger over the scratches and patterns of his plastron plates, "…technically we've only kissed, there's a lot more stuff that can happen before you need to question it, and that's only if you want to,"
She wasn't going to make him feel any pressure. She had already fallen for him, that was on her, it was her fault, not his. If he didn't want anything serious from this then that was up to him, but she was enjoying this and there were boundaries that she had already set in her mind, that when reached she'd stop, she'd break away before it was too late for her to pull her feelings free of falling too deep if he didn't want her.
"What if I want to?" he said, he was sharp in his words and tone, as if he'd already made his mind up.
She looked at him cautiously.
"…what if I want to put a label on it? on us?" he continued.
She felt a smirk roll up on her lips, but she flat lined them, she couldn't get too involved too quickly, could she? What was it about him that made her want to forget herself?
She pushed herself off of him and from his grasp. He watched as she picked her clothes up from the floor and hopped around trying to get the trousers on.
He knew she was putting a wall up. He knew she liked him, that was pretty fuckin obvious from what had just happened between them! but was labeling themselves that big of an issue?
The label thing didn't bother her, but she was coming to the realization that she was his first, his first kiss, his first touch and likely to be his first sexual encounter too. But that left more questions in her head. If she allowed herself to fall hard for him, would she be enough for him?
"What do you mean Mikey, what do you want from this?"
Mikey got up and walked over to where she was.
"Are we gonna keep doing this?" he pointed to her lips and then to his, "…is this somethin? Or is this nothin? Were you just teaching me somethin? Or were you really in it? Were you right there with me? Or was it, was it just me that fell in love just then?"
Lucy stopped in her tracks, her chest gave way to his words as she slowly popped her head through the neck hole of her shirt and looked at him.
Did he just say he had fallen in love with her? She pulled her shirt down over her body slowly, giving his words time to really sink in.
She put her head down and sighed.
"Do you really believe that?" she said, "…I don't know mutants, but I know guys and that's usually the dick talking!"
Why did she say that she thought? They hadn't fucked, he didn't want to rush things, that in itself made him better than all the other guys in her past, how the hell could she put him in the same class as all of those other low life's?!
"Look," he said, his tone was a little more serious, "…I said before that I have no bases for comparison, but I know how I feel. I have never felt this way before, I get that its new and I get that I don't know what I'm talking about, but when I look at you, if feels like, it feels like I'm home. Like, I'm right where I need to be, and with the person I'm supposed to be with. Everything inside me is screaming, saying 'she's your person! She's the one!' and I've been taught to listen to my insides, that they will tell me what's right and what's not, but I know that this is right! I knew there was something when Raph threw you into me and I caught you, the way you looked at me. it's right, I know it is, and it scares the shit out of me! So, what does that mean?"
Lucy stood there with her mouth slightly open, hypnotized by his words. Her heart was in her throat and she was sure that her ovaries had just imploded!
"…what's love supposed to feel like?" he said gently as he fiddled with his fingers and looked at her.
"That. Everything you just said," She said back quietly. She smiled at him and he smiled back.
She moved close to him and looked up into his ocean eyes.
"I know its soon but, I'm ready to call you my boyfriend, if that's what you want, or is it turt-friend? Turtle friend?"
Mikey smiled, "Boyfriend is perfect!"
"Boyfriend. Ok then, I like that,"
The two smiled at one another again before Mikey jumped, "…And that makes you my girlfriend? Right?!"
"Right!" she grinned at him.
He lowered his lips down to meet hers again and they kissed. Lucy gave a little squeal as Mike hoisted her up, wrapping her legs around his waist as he walked them out of the green house and to the picnic she had set out for them both in the garden.
"What's say we have those snacks we brought up? I'm starving! If I get any hungrier I might have to eat you angelcakes!"
Lucy laughed, "Don't make promises you can't keep Mikey!"
He looked at her confused, "I don't know what you're saying,"
Lucy laughed again, "That will be the next lesson I teach you!"
"Ok, will I like that as much as I liked this one?" he said, as he lowered her down onto the picnic blanket.
"God I hope so!" she smiled as Mikey climbed on top of her peppering her with yet more loving kisses.
