BTY Chapter 2
WARNING THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS EXTREME AWESOMENESS AND SHOULD NOT BE READ IF YOU AREN'T IN-TUNE WITH YOUR INNER AWESOME!
~*Elizabeth's POV*~
I exit the terminal like the woman on the plane told me too and walk to baggage claim. I wonder when Leeann's flight will land as my thoughts drift towards puppy's and then to my dogs Muzzie and Hobbes then, strangely enough, to unicorns.
I figure that's caused by all the monster and Reese's I had on the plane. After I grab my bags I sit down on a plastic green chair to wait. After a few minutes my sugar rush wears off and before I know it I start to drift.
~* In Dreamland*~
I sit on a hay bale, all alone up in the loft just watching people dance down below to the beginnings of a slow love song that I can't put my finger on the name of when I felt a hand take mine, pulling me to my feet.
A boy in an over exaggerated cowboy outfit pulls me in close and we start to sway to the music. I notice that, as I wrap my arms around him, his back is rounded and rough and his hands felt weird on my sides, As though he had only three fingers.
I looked up in curiosity but his hat shadowed his face, all except for two bright blue eyes peering back at me. I was about to ask who he was and if he would take off his hat when I felt a hand on my shoulder and flinched a little, but then the hand started to shake me gently.
~*End of Dream*~
I realize where I am and that someone real is shaking me. I, on a knee jerk reaction, bring my hand up and slap them as hard as I can, afraid that its some creep.
"Ow! Liza?! What was that for?!" I heard a familiar voice say. I open my eyes to find a tiny girl standing over me, holding her now red cheek. She has on a way too big for her athletic frame tan jacket and grey jeans with a red suitcase sitting next to her.
She has pale green eyes that have a navy blue ring around the outside, and shiny black hair in a thick braid hanging over her shoulder. As my mind drifts to how short she is along with the obviously lean muscle she has being an odd combination I then realize that it's Leeann. I gasp and cover my mouth, jumping up and tackling her in a hug. After a second of shock she returns the hug and we laugh, jumping up and down in excitement.
"I can't believe I'm finally meeting you in person!" she says happily, looking around the airport.
"I know right!" I say still laughing, I notice that people are staring at us and Lee puts her hands on her hips and glares back at a particularly blatant mountain of a man who looks much too big for the small green airport chair.
"Take a picture buddy, it lasts longer" she says to him, ignoring how intimidating this massive blond man, who had been sitting a few seats away from me really is.
He grins, pulling out his phone, and taking a picture of us. Leeann balls up her fists and takes a step toward him but I grab her arm and pull her in the opposite direction.
"Let's just go, he's not worth it" I whisper to her, trying to calm her down a little so we can leave. After a minute she let her hands go slack and grabs her suitcase and mine, walking toward the exit. I follow her, relieved that I'd been able to stop her before anything bad happened.
We walk out of the airport and are assaulted by the loudness of midday New York City. Leea steps right up to the curb and brings her fingers to her lips, letting out a shrill whistle loud enough to stop a cab down the street along with two across it. I laugh, my eyes widening a little.
"How do you do that?" I ask her, she smiles, grabbing our suitcases again and starting off toward the waiting cab.
"When you've got four sisters and four brothers you've got to learn a way to get everyone's attention at the same time" she says nonchalantly, opening the cab door for me as the driver gets out and opens the trunk. He takes the suitcases from Leea and opens the other door for her as I duck my head and slide in as she goes around. She gets in and sits next to me as we hear the trunk close. The driver gets in a moment later and turned back to face us.
"Darrell Jones at your service, so where to ladies?" he said his accent becoming the final confirmation that we had finally made it to the Big Apple. Leea smiles and leans forward.
"NYU dorms" she says politely, her earlier anger seemingly forgotten. Darrell smiles and gives us both the once over as he turns around and pulls up off the curb and into traffic, Leea smiles and turns to face me.
"So, after I beat you at twister once we set everything up, how about we go get something to eat" she says, obviously trying not to smile. I throw my head back and laugh.
"You may box but I'm a heck of a lot more flexible then you are!" I challenge her, laughing harder. She lifts an eyebrow at me and holds out her hand to shake.
"Oh it's on!" she says laughing as we shake on it.
Ten minutes later we pay the driver and step out of the cab, our suitcases in hand as we walk into our college dormitory.
~*Down in the Sewers, Mikeys pov*~
"Cowabunga!" I shout as I ride my skateboard doing a perfect wheelie into the lair. Raph is at the punching bag, working on the same move as when I'd left and Don is at his computers talking calmly to an angry woman that I can even hear from where I stand at the door. Master Splinter is on the couch with April, watching his shows and debating whether Donna would get back with whoever and Leo as per usual is nowhere to be seen, I can only assume that Owen's down for a nap.
"Hey guys!" I say, waving to everyone, April turns around and greets me with a half distracted wave then went back to their debate. Everyone else just keeps at what they were doing.
I sigh at the same time Donny does and turn my head to look at him, mouth open to jinx him.
"ma'am, did you plug in your computer?" Don balls his fists slightly and runs a hand down his face at her answer. "Yes ma'am that would help"
I click my jaw shut and chuckle a little, propping my board up against the wall and go to the kitchen to start making dinner for everyone. I push open the swinging door to the kitchen and immediately go to grab a pot from the cupboard, thinking about doing spaghetti to shake things up.
"Hey mike, tell everyone that we're going out tonight" I jump when I hear Leo right over my shoulder, yelping in surprise I turn around quickly.
"Dude! Knock on the door or something! You nearly gave me a heart attack!" I say a hand on my chest theatrically, Leo just chuckle's and puts a hand on my shoulder
"Just tell everyone to meet in the living room in ten minutes" he laughs a little and leave's the room.
~*Normal POV*~
Both girls are currently in a diner, their bags just dropped off at the dorm they shared as they rush to the nearest place so they could eat and chat. Airplane food did not have quality service .
Both girls couldn't stop smiling as they walk in, Mostly Elizabeth since she was an active ball of hyper, but Leea didn't mind, and was currently trying not to cry in laughter when Elizabeth was telling a funny story about her family.
"...so he kicked your dad in the nuts by accident?" She asks wiping tears from her eyes from laughing so hard.
"Yeah but my brother felt so bad that he-" she can't finish the sentence because she's laughing as hard as Leea.
"He-e what?" Leea stutters still laughing. Elizabeth managed to keep calm for a total of 5 seconds before practically yelling.
"He let dad kick him in the balls!" and just like that both girls almost end up on the floor rolling around laughing so hard.
Few minutes later and both girls are calm, especially when a scary waiter reminds them to keep quiet inside. Both girls are now looking at the menu and deciding what to have.
"Hmmm burger and fries sound so good right now" Leea muse's, deep in thought, as she looks at the ingredients. "Bet I could make it better though" Elizabeth chuckles, glancing at Leea.
"Whatever helps you sleep at night" Elizabeth joked, Leeann rolls her eyes and smiles a little at the sarcastic comment before placing her menu down and drumming her fingers on the table.
"You decided yet?" She asks a little impatient, her stomach practically begging her to feed it.
"Chill hang on...I'll have the….- BRIGIT!" Elizabeth shouts. Leea looks at her, raising an eyebrow.
"Ok first off she's in Nebraska, and second i don't know if she is that fast to get here and third I don't think they'd let you eat her" she says chuckling.
"No no, look!" Elizabeth says, pointing to a girl sitting by the bar who greatly resembled the one called Brigit.
In fact, the women in question turns around at the sound of her name and smiles big, seeing the two girls.
~*Brigit's POV A few minutes earlier*~
A young woman around 20 is making her way to Dave's Diner in Manhattan New York, after a long day at school all she wants was to pick up dinner, then go out and dance the weekend away.
Brigit is a country girl from Nebraska, but managed to get a scholarship in Manhattan for education and with lots of hugs and kisses goodbye, she was on her way to New York. She managed to get a cheap apartment, small and cozy, and right across from the NYU dormitories just right for her.
Brigit is strawberry blonde, curvy, with pale skin, freckles and blue eyes. She enjoys reading and writing and singing and dancing as well. Brigit comes from a family of two parents and three little brothers. Being a close knit family they are, it was hard for her to move away, but she manages.
Arriving in the dinner, she sits at the booth and smiles at Tory, the cool guy, looks intimidating but was really a big sweet heart.
"The usual Tor" she says, putting down some dollar bills.
"One of those nights?" His rough voice asks as he takes the money and starts cooking her food.
She nods but before asking, hears her name being shouted out in the diner.
~*Normal POV*~
"Well well well, if it ain't my two favorite bitches in the world" she laughs along with Leea, but Elizabeth gets up so fast that in a blur, Brigit finds herself being squeezed to death.
It doesn't take to long for Leea to join as all three squeal and jump up and down, hugging each other. As they all calm down Leea punches Brigit in the arm lightly.
"Why didn't you tell us you were in NYC?!" Leea says happily. Brigit rubs her arm, laughing a little.
"I guess I just forgot too" she says and Leea raises her eyebrow a little in a jokingly accusatory manner
"I'm sorry! It's been pretty hectic here lately! Tonight was my night to get out in the town and have a little fun!" she says, raising her hands in mock surrender. Elizabeth smiles her, just got a light bulb idea, smile and puts her arms over Leea and Brigit's shoulders.
"Let's do it!" she says excitedly, Leea looks at her in confusion.
"Do what?" she asks, laughing a little nervously, Elizabeth grins.
"Go clubbing! Have fun!" Elizabeth says, Leea's eyes nearly bug a little.
"Uh Liza unless you're going to teach me in the next three seconds, I've got no clue how to dance" she looks down at herself. "And unless you haven't noticed I'm not exactly dressed for clubbing" she says, Elizabeth frowns and Brigit grabs their hands, pulling them towards the door.
"Then let's go get something! And trust me Lee, anyone can dance even you" she says confidently as she drags them out the door and down the street to the nearest clothing store.
She went straight to the clearance racks and pulled out what looked like a little black one shoulder dress with cut outs and a pair of classy black pumps for Elizabeth and a baby blue v neck dress and a pair of blue flats for Leeann. She hands them these items and sends them to the dressing rooms, Leeann with a under enthusiastic expression on her face. Brigit grabs a bright red cowl neck cocktail dress off the rack along with a pair of black wedge heels with little black bows at the ankles and went into the dressing rooms too.
