Again this is a shortened chapter the full and dirty version can be found at http/adultfan. Please, please review!

She woke up for the second time in two days to the feeling of a half empty bed, only this time the smell of breakfast was wafting toward her from the kitchen. She stretched and yawned in a lazy manner then flopped back down drawing the blankets around here and waiting for breakfast. Breakfast came a few minutes later Mikey plunked in down on the night stand for her with a small smile

"Morning" He greeted "I have to go talk a few things over with April "He added heading towards the door "Oh no you don't" She called after him losing her temper , she was getting tired of not knowing what was going on "I wanna know what's going on" He cocked an eye ridge at her "You were there" He stated in an unsure voice , damn she was and she hadn't been listening it was totally her own fault but she had started yelling and it was too late now. "Doesn't mean I understood everything "She fired back hoping it wasn't as flimsy sounding to him as it was to her. "I'll explain when I get back "He told her as he opened the door and then he added chuckling "Everything, not just the boring parts you weren't listening to"

Ok so round one for today had definitely gone to Mikey, she ate her breakfast with a small smile on her face and then set about getting herself cleaned up. In the bathroom she found l pile of clothes with a note from Mikey explaining they were for her. She smiled throwing her dirty ones aside, she could always wash them later, and then proceeded to take the longest shower the hot water would allow. A short time later she had crawled into the clothes April had left for her, a practical wife beater-ish top and a very sturdy pair of pants that looked and felt similar to jeans and she had now planted herself in front of the small cracked mirror and was tossing her hair around trying to pretty it up a bit but with no styling products and only an elastic it was an up hill battle.

Mind hair toss she caught herself, what am I doing? Trying to make yourself presentable in public she excused. Like hell it was for Mikey and she knew it, she didn't get it though he was already sleeping with her why was she worried about what she looked like? Damn the whole thing was sending her down a thought path she didn't like; she pulled her hair back into a pony tail quickly and left the bathroom and her thoughts behind.

Shortly after the hair fiasco Mikey returned "C'mon" He called from the front door "Let's take a walk" They strode off towards the large patch of wood behind the complex at an easy walk, the air was warm and mild and apart from the blackened sky you could actually mistake this for a beautiful day. "So?" She said attempting to jump start the conversation as they strolled down the gently wending path in the woods. He looked down at her and smiled slightly "You look pretty" He said taking her hand and continuing on in silence. Damn, either he seriously thought she was fishing for a compliment or he was ready to start the serious conversation yet. "S'not what I meant, but thank you" She waited for his answer while trying to shoo away the butterflies that had shown up uninvited to her stomach when he had told her she was pretty.

"April's got a plan" He said after a few more steps "Thinks this one will work" He added. "And the plan would be?" She questioned trying to catch his eyes but he was avoiding looking at her "He'll let us into the Shredders tower, and we take him out….. Tonight" Mikey said simply. She stopped dead in her tracks and pulled on his arm forcefully trying to make him face her, she wasn't strong enough to do it on her own but he gave in to her and turned. "We?" She questioned "Who's we Mikey?" He was reaching for her shoulder but she backed up not liking what she was hearing "It's just that easy huh?" She continued not letting him answer, he was the only one who seemed to notice her let alone want to help her get back and she was damned if he was going to charge of into battle and leave her here "All of you have been trying to kill him and an open door is going to make a difference, what are you and Leo the only two ninjas that never learned to pick a lock" She was still backing up , she was upset she didn't want him to go she pushed her reasons aside they were all to complicated to get into now.

He was still closing in on her seeing the tears welling up in her eyes "They need me" He started but she was crying now "No they don't "She argued finally backing into and tree and running out of room, he took his chance to swoop in and hold her "I need you" She sobbed out, she would deal with what that all meant later right now she just needed him to stay " It'll be all right" he soothed brushing a few loose strands of hair back and wiping her tears " I told you I'll take care of it ….. I promise".
