Personality Adjustment

Ch 14

"Loosening Up"

He entered the kitchen and put the water on for their hot chocolate. Then he put the fireplace on in the living room and waited for the kettle to whistle. When he heard it whistle he entered the kitchen and poured the water in their cups for their hot chocolate. After he finished with the hot chocolate he loosened his bandanna a little and sighed. He stirred the hot chocolate and entered the living room once again, and put the stereo on as he waited for Stacy to come back down so he could go in. He sat silently and drank his hot chocolate listening to the music that was playing.

Stacy exited her shower and blow dried her long, brown hair. Then she brushed it out and got ready for bed. She stared at the mirror and sighed as he buttoned up her pajama top. Then she tied the string for the pants and put a pair of slippers on to keep her feet warm. When she finally finished she headed downstairs and heard the music playing. She smiled at him and asked.

"What made you put the stereo on? I thought the only music you listened to was Japanese music not American especially R&B. Do you have any idea what kind of mood that music can put couples in?"

He smiled at her as she sat down by him and said.

"Are you calling me old? Of course I listen to light music like that. Our sensei always listens to that Japanese folk music of his I really have no choice but to listen to it. Actually it's pretty soothing especially during a lesson and after. The music helps us focus a little more and then after we're done training it helps us all relax our muscles. I prefer to listen to the music I'm playing now especially when we're trying to have a romantic anniversary after my long absence. We have a lot of catching up to do sweetie. After my attitude and everything else I put you through the least I could do is make our anniversary my 1st priority."

She looked at him and smiled.

"I thought you were taking a shower after me? Isn't that what you said? Leo I'm talking to you will you answer me please? What are we going to go through the same crap we did when you turned into your hot headed brother? If that's the case then I don't need it; I had enough after that final battle with Shredder to be honest with you. It's not funny anymore, and I mean it. I'll break up with you right now if you don't stop being like this."

Puzzled he looked and asked.

"Acting like what? I'm just drinking my hot chocolate gee; get off my shell already? I am taking a shower after I finish my hot chocolate; give me a break will you?"

He finished his hot chocolate and headed up the stairs to take his shower. In the meantime Stacy sighed and asked herself.

'What is wrong with me? All night I've been yelling at him for no reason. I need to cut it out before he gets aggravated and dumps my behind here and now especially on our anniversary.'

She drank her hot chocolate in silence and sighed. When she finished her hot chocolate she took their cups to the sink and washed them. Then she cleaned off the counter and when she finished in the kitchen she returned to the Living Room and listened to music while she waited. For him to return if he wasn't too mad at her and going to bed after his shower. She turned off the stereo and the fireplace in the living room. Then she headed to her room and lay in her bed listening to the music.

In the meantime while the water hit his face visions of Stacy and him all sweaty and making loud sounds of pleasure. While the visions continued to play in his head the ache below his waist got stronger. He shook his head and leaned against the tile holding himself. Stacy looked at the clock and realized he's been in the shower for over an hour. She sat up and walked over to the bathroom door and knocked on it asking.

"Leo are you ok in there? You've been in there for nearly an hour, Leo. Fine be a jerk if you want to I'm going to sleep with or without you goodnight jerk!"

He dried off and exited the bathroom saying.

"Stacy I can explain. Please don't stay mad at me. I'm going through a stage in my teenage life that all teens go through even though I'm a mutant turtle. I'm so confused right now that it's not even funny. None of these signs came until we met and became best friends. I guess all those years I hid my true feelings for you took a toll on me, and now I have no control especially when we're alone. I fight the urge so much, because I'm so scared of what might happen with us if we do so soon into our relationship. I honestly don't think I can fight it anymore and I don't want you to hate me because of it. Besides all that I have no clue on what I'm capable of not being all human. All I do know is that I'm in love with you, and I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if it causes us to split up."

She smiles slyly as her arms wrapped around his neck and their lips meet. Then she said.

"Believe me that will not cause me to dump you. I've known you practically all my life and was in love with you when we first met. Every day that passes I am thankful that we finally admitted we have feelings for each other and want to be together. Now it's time we both trust in each other and move our relationship ahead before it causes us to grow apart. Just so you're aware you'll be my 1st love, and I wouldn't want it to be any other way but with you the one I've been in love with since I was 13 and you were 14."

He smiled slyly and moved his fingers down her pajama top slowly unbuttoning it while he kissed her against the bathroom door. She felt his rough hands against her skin and sighed as the embrace became tighter. Her hands slowly moved from his neck and to his belt tied around his waist. Then she unfastened the eyelets and caused the harness to fall off with a thump. He looked down and watched as her hands moved up his thighs causing him to gulp as the ache became stronger below his waist. Then he said while his hands slid the top off her shoulders causing it to fall on his belt.

"You better be sure you're ready before you do that, I'm telling you this. If you hit the right spot then we'll both be in for a night none of us will ever forget. You know how the saying goes more than me you're a human remember?"

She laughed as she nodded her head.

"Yes of course I do. Do you want to know the saying or not? Or would you rather let loose after all this time you fought the urge as much as I did."

He silenced her and pushed her down to the bed as he shut the lights off. Then she felt a sensation like she'd never felt before move through her body as everything around them faded to red. All that could be heard was their breathing and the sounds that escaped their mouths as they went on throughout the snowy night. When it ended she looked to her right side and smiled at him when her head rested on his smooth plastron. She sighed as his rough hands continued to caress every inch of her body beneath the satin sheets that covered them both. She grabbed his hands and said as she leaned down to kiss him with true passion.

"That's all you're made of? Please don't tell me that a mutant like yourself can't do more than that. Leo you're 18 surely you are more skilled than that."

He held her close to him and brushed her bangs from her eyes and said.

"I'm not 18 yet. Besides the point you were so scared when we started not too long ago. If that's the case I'll wait longer. You're still not trusting me enough to take it there babe. Nothing happened yet and it's because you're nervous and I'm not going to disrespect you. Goodnight Stacy I love you."

She looked and asked.

"What are you telling me that it was all in my mind? I felt it don't lie on your shell and tell me nothing happened. We're all sweaty and neither of us can breathe right."

He laughed and said.

"Stacy I'm breathing fine and so are you. You're just not ready and I'm not going to convince you that you are ready even though I am. Sorry babe I'm not that kind of guy and you should know better goodnight Stacy!"

She rubbed his chest and said.

"Can we try again? I promise I'll loosen up and allow it? Leo please I want to feel you're love don't do this to me I'm begging you. Don't ignore me either this is not funny I mean it. I was a little nervous but now I'm fine please!"

He turned and said.

"No you're not and I'm not going to attempt it again. That's the end of the subject drop it Stacy and get some sleep I know you're tired and so am I."

She stared at him and said.

"Not yet turtle boy. I'm going to prove to you that I am ready! I'll show you exactly how making out leads to making love. Remember you're dealing with a human girl Leo. Now lie back and watch how the desire comes to be while we're in this bed in front of a fireplace?"

She leaned down and kissed him full of passion moving her hands from his chest and up his thighs. She felt the heat come on as she continued to kiss him while he lies flat on his shell gazing into her light green eyes. Soon he felt his body heat up and gulped when her hands move back up. She looked through his bandanna and said.

"You still think I'm nervous hmm Leo? Well Leo the night is still young if you're going to make a move then go on and show me what you're capable of."

He paused for a minute and then leaned over to kiss her full of passion while his hands moved to her bottoms and slid them down. He moved them all the way down until they fell to the floor. Soon his hands moved inside and the rest slid down to the floor on top of her top, bottoms, and his belt. Soon the sensation took her over as she dug her nails into his thick, green skin. Their breathing escalated as they got into it deeper. His lips cursed over hers to silence her as he continued through the remainder of the night. She closed her eyes and sighed loudly as the sensation moved deeper within causing tears to fall to the bed. Then the passion between them was truly present when she pushed him down to the bed and continued causing animal sounds to escape his lips while his toes curled and his skin crawled. He tried to catch his breath but failed miserably. She heard his shell cell ring and knocked it off the bed and continued to satisfy him. He pushed her back down to the bed and stroked her forehead gently while he pushed her bangs from her face and wiped the tears from her eyes. After it ended they fell asleep in one another's arms and slept soundly throughout the night. Leo's shell cell remained on the floor flashing to let him know he had messages waiting.
