The Love Of A Turtle
Chapter II

Leo and Dana's relationship had gotten off to a great start. He was smooth and charming and he definitely knew how to make a girl feel happy. Dana decided to show him her appreciation for being such a great boyfriend; she decided to make him his favorite food: salad with spicy Italian sauce.

"Just wait until he gets a load of this!" She smiled. Just then she heard a gentle tap on the window sill. She turned and saw Leo smiling at her and beckoning her to come over.

"I'm coming, babe!" She grinned. She ran and opened the window and he climbed in and planted a small kiss on her cheek.

"Hey, Dana. How are you this evening?" He smiled happily.

"I'm great now that I'm with you; I made your favorite food this afternoon," She chirped as she ran inside the kitchen. She ran back in with the salad, but there was one problem. The minute she ran in, she tripped and the salad and the dressing went flying into the air and it landed all over Dana's face. Dana was so frustrated she thought she would scream!

"LEO! I AM SO SORRY! I'M SUCH A CLUTZ!" She yelled angrily as she began to pick up the salad. Leo chuckled a bit and then went over to her and picked her up.

"PUT ME DOWN! I HAVE TO CLEAN THIS UP!"

"Temper, temper, Dana…I can feel that blood pressure of yours rising up. Calm down," he cooed as he sat her down on the bed. Dana glared at him angrily, but her eyes widened in shock when he began to lick the salad dressing off her face gently. "Mmmmm…this is delicious," he smirked as he gave her cheek another lick.

"CUT IT OUT, LEO!" Dana yelped as she felt him giving her neck a gentle nip.

"Why? You said it was dinner time and you made my favorite dinner…"

"B-but that was the salad, silly!" She laughed as she pushed on his muscular chest to get him off of her.

"Correction, Dana…you are my meal for tonight," he growled playfully as he began to gently bite off the lettuce leafs that landed on her shirt and his licking became more aggressive.

"Leo…cut it out…I'm gonna need a bath!" She giggled as she felt him lick her ear.

"I know you will…and I will be right there with you…," he snickered.

"LEONARDO!"

"Relax, Dana, I was only teasing. I would not dishonor you in that manner. Now that we have eaten, how about some dessert?" He smiled.

"Well, I have some ice cream in the refrigerator?"

"Perfect…I will get it, wait here…," he smiled. Dana waited patiently and when she heard him clear his voice, she turned and saw that Leonardo came back and he had some ice cream, but he had it smeared on his lips.

"Leo! I can't eat the ice cream if you have it on your lips!" Dana laughed as she massaged his arms.

"Oh my, what a shame…I guess you will have to kiss me in order to get to the ice cream," he said as he gave her a sly smirk.

"You're such a ham…but I love you, Leo," Dana said as she gave him a large kiss on his lips. He groaned and then he wrapped his arms around her. They hugged for what seemed like hours.

"Dana…I want you to marry me," he said as he began to rub her shoulders.

"I will marry you, Leo! I was hoping you would ask me!" She smiled happily.

"I have a ring for you too," he smiled. He then pulled it out of a part of his shell and placed it on her finger. Dana jumped in happiness. Leo couldn't help but laugh but he was so in love with her that he didn't care! He jumped up too and spun her around.

"Leo! We will have the best wedding ever!"

"Are you sure that you wouldn't mind marrying a mutant?"

"Of course not. You're my one true love, Leo…," Dana cooed as she hugged him tightly.

"But Dana, you know that you will have to go through some customs at the wedding ceremony…"

"What customs baby?"

"Like getting used to my touch…," he chuckled as he took her shoe off literally with his large two-toed foot. Dana gasped and then jumped when he wiggled his feet against hers in a flirty manner and ran his foot up and down her leg.

"LEO! I'M ALREADY USED TO YOUR TOUCH!" She laughed as his footsies tickled.

"Perhaps…but the fun will just be beginning the night of our wedding. Now Dana, it is getting very late; let's clean up the salad and then get some rest," he smiled. Dana nodded and they both began to clean up the mess. Once it was done, Leonardo began to head out.

"Leo! When will our wedding date be?!" Dana asked eagerly.

"Don't worry; I will be back tomorrow and we can discuss the plans," he winked.

"May I have a goodbye kiss, sweetie?" Dana asked as she batted her eyelashes.

"But of course…," he cooed. He then pulled her close to his chest and his lips smashed into hers. She groaned and then let her lover shower her with attention and affection the entire night.
