The blame for this one goes to WOLFJADE28 for putting the idea in my head.

It took me a while to get used to the fact we had two kitchens. What ended up happening there was mine became the go to one for when we were puttering around at my place, training outside, playing, helping my dad with the goats...stuff like that. It was full of grab and go things and items I could throw together for a quick lunch for the kids, even a few things for when Leo and I did our date night dinners there. But the big evening meal was always eaten at the lair, simply because they had more room in there.

After a few weeks Mikey and I had grown into a routine, kids would come home and I would tackle snacktime and then once homework was finished I went to help him with supper. Worked out pretty good actually. But I had to do damage control while working with him, that nut just can not figure out how to cook like a normal person... The food is good, don't get me wrong, it's just his process of getting from raw ingredients to a wonderful home cooked meal...gets adventurous sometimes.

But we did set aside days, usually on the weekends, for family pizza night. Well...they were the Ninja Turtles... Gotta have pizza sometime... Of course the kiddos were excited for pizza nights, really haven't found a kid yet that didn't get excited over it, and they spent the whole Saturday afternoon waiting for suppertime to roll around so they could indulge in those circly forms of yumminess. To appease picky eaters we got a few kinds of varieties so there would be something there they would want.

When Raph and I finally walked in the lair with those boxes we got stampeded by two very excited kids and Raph had to hold the boxes up high so they wouldn't get knocked out of his hands. "Shit...they are worse than Mikey sometimes..." He complained, but he couldn't hide that smile from me.

"Go set the table or no pizza!" I managed to make myself heard over the noise and they turned around and bolted back towards the kitchen. That left Raph with a clear path to the kitchen.

We walked in and I just shook my head, the table was getting set alright...Mikey was flinging the plates across the room in off the wall angles and Leo was flipping and spinning to catch them to the delighted squeals of my children as they laughed and applauded the ridiculous show. When Mikey threw one high and Leo lept up, caught it, went into a backspin and hit the ground on his feet, the cheers were hurting my ears. I loved my turtle...but he had his moments sometimes.

He caught my look and gave me this big, boyish grin before he handed the kids the stack of plates and they dashed to set the table, then they did the same thing with the cups. Couldn't they do one thing like normal folks?

After the impromptu circus act we all settled down to eat and the usual turtle family antics ensued at the table. Dennis and Amy both reached for the same slice of pizza that was in the box in front of them, of course the biggest one in the box. Guess how that ended. "That's my slice!" Dennis told his sister.

"Nuh uh! I got it first!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

They were about to get into full voice when Raph reached over from where he was sitting next to Dennis and grabbed the slice in question. "It's my slice." He told them, then took a big bite out of it. "And there ain't nuthin you little pipsqueaks can do 'bout it." He said around a mouthful large enough to feed a small army.

"Mommy! Raph took my pizza!" Came at me in stereo.

Leo, who was sitting in between Amy and I, just rolled his eyes and sighed before reaching into another box and grabbed two slices and plopped one each on their plates. "There."

"Hers is bigger." Dennis mumbled.

Leo gave the boy a level look, then took a kunai out and grabbed her slice, threw it up into the air and sliced it down to equal size and it landed onto her plate with a plop while he caught the smaller piece and tossed it into his mouth. "Any other complaints?"

They both blinked, then looked at him. "Do it again!"

I groaned.

"Eat." Leo told them instead.

Dennis then tried to copy Raph and took the biggest bite he could out of his slice. He ended up looking like a damn chipmunk as he tried to chew it. "I like pizza." He then firmly declared once he had managed to get that down without choking himself.

"I never would have guessed." Donnie chuckled.

"I like them better than that yucky broccoli."

"Broccoli is got for you." I told him. "It's not going to kill you to eat it every once in awhile."

"If it's so good for you, then why does Leo shove his under the table and slides it under Mikey's chair when no one is looking?"

Kitchen got awfully quiet as we all turned to look in shock at Leo who had frozen in the act of taking a bite out of his pizza.

"Dude, it was you this whole time!?" Mikey asked incredulously. "I kept wondering where the broccoli came from."

Raph actually chuckled a little. "You actually did something like that? l'm impressed..."

I crossed my arms as I glared at my lover. "l'm not...someone's got a lot of explaining to do..."

"Little snitch." Leo mumbled under his breath and Mikey cracked up laughing.

"I should take that pizza from you and make you eat some damn broccoli soup." I muttered at him.

"I'd like to see you try." Came his reply, then he went to take a bite out of his slice.

I just raise a brow, reached out and snatched the slice from him as his mouth closed and his teeth came together on empty air with a clack. You should have seen the look he gave me. "You little...give me that!" He reached over to take it back and I just pulled it further out of his reach. Which of course made him lean over to grab it from me, and I kept pulling back. That kept going until we both lost our balance and toppled out of the chairs. We both hit the floor, him next to me, and we still played the pizza keep away game until he finally just laid on me, grabbed my arm and took his pizza back. Then he shoved the whole thing into his mouth. He did almost choke on it because by that point we were both laughing our asses off.

"What in the heck did they put in the pizza?" Donnie asked as he shook his head.

"I dunno." Mikey was laughing himself. "But this is some pretty funny shit."

Amy was watching us quietly as she chewed her pizza, then swallowed. "Mommy and Leo don't get no ice cream for dessert. They playing at the table."

"More like playing on the floor." Raph grinned as he watched Leo and I try and control ourselves. Finally we were able to settle down and I wrapped my arms around Leo's neck since we were still down there. "I love you." I told him, still giggling.

"You better." He gave me a peck on the cheek. "Because I just lost my dessert because of you."

I cracked up all over again.
