Human

Nao looked at Leatherhead, "I'm guessing you can let go of him now," she smiled.

Leatherhead nodded and carefully let go of Don and walked over to the rest of where everyone was.

"Oh…oh dear…" Nao muttered as she started seeing the subtle changes of the turtle turning human, "Girls, out! Raph, grab some clothes…" she turned hot red at some memory and grabbed a blanket, draping it over Donatello before shooting out of the room.

Rachel just burst out laughing before standing up and shrugged lightly at both Leatherhead and Raph and walked out of the room along side Brianna.

Raphael laughed and stood also, "Mikey, Leo, LH…you wanted to know what had happened. Here's your chance to watch," He grinned at them and then bounded out of the room to get some clothing.

Lily raised an eyebrow but then smiled weakly and just went to grab a chair, "Sit, minna, or get semi-comfy…it might take several minutes yet."

Leonardo noticed that Lily seemed a bit calmer and a bit taller than what she was. She was also a bit skinnier as well.

Michelangelo's and Leo's attention was drawn away from Lily and looked over at Don. His shell was disappearing and he was getting a bit taller just as Raph had. His skin was a bit pale, and he had light brown hair, but it wasn't ragged. He was muscular, but lean…skinny, but not too much… He had to admit, Don looked good.

Lily smiled tiredly as Donatello's transformation finally stopped. She blushed red at her thoughts about his body, but shook her head free of them. Raphael soon came back with the clothes, now all they had to do was wait…

Don opened his eyes slowly as he felt himself go back to conscious. He sat up and was rubbing his head. He still felt a bit weak, but he was fine. He glanced over at everyone and he could see Mikey and Leo looking very amused. "What?" He asked as his eyes went from Leo to Mikey and to Raph and Lily.

Lily felt tears in her eyes, but she was grinning hugely, "We did it, Donny-Don," she told him. Her voice was thick with her tears and hoarse again, a vocal of the challenge she had done. "You're…cured, I guess we could put it," she wiped her eyes absently as she looked at the others.

"That's good," Don sighed when he noticed that he looked a bit different. He sighed and then said, "Just say it. I turned human didn't I?"

"Yes," the room chorused.

"Don't worry, Bro!" Raph was beaming, "It's not that bad," he tossed his brother the close he had chosen out for first-day-human attire, "The only real weird thing is the weight loss of the shell."

"I suppose." Don said. He maneuvered himself away so he can place the clothes on without Lily seeing anything. "It is a bit weird. I'm so used to having it behind me…" He muttered as he slipped the shirt on.

"So was I, bro," Raph smiled as he patted Don's shoulder, "But you look great! Seriously, much, much, much, better than before…" he trailed off but just bounced right onto another subject, "How does it feel? Having five fingers?" he laughed as he grabbed Don's hands and splayed his fingers against them. Don was a bit smaller than him…two inches shorter, since he was 6ft now, so 5ft 8. He shook his head and grinned wider. He felt so hyper! Now he had a brother back and it didn't feel so awkward anymore.

Lily smiled, amused, and stood silently. She was startled…something was off. She blinked and looked at herself. She hadn't even felt her body flex as she had stood. Once moment she was sitting, the next standing straight; 'Newfound speed…fascinating…' she thought. She began walking over to Leo and Mikey, but again as the thought passed through her she was already standing by Leo's side. She widened her eyes. "Freaky…" she murmured. Shaking her head, she looked at Leo, "No questions tonight," she held up her hand quickly to stop his moving lips, "Please…You saw for yourselves what it was like to change. Now may you leave? I'd be extremely thankful…"

Leonardo nodded respectfully and stood up and walked out the room with Leatherhead and Mikey. Rachel and Nao were at the living room and Rachel just gave a slight smile, "So, how hot was he?"

"Do you really expect me to answer that?" Leo asked at the same time Mikey replied, "I give him a five."

"That's what I thought," Rachel nodded, "The geeks always are the ones that are the hottest."

"Careful what you say," Leo teased the woman, "Raph might get mad for that."

"Just an opinion, that is true," Rachel shrugged.

Don could hear the conversation until Leo closed the door and he sighed, "…I really do think she listens to music too much." He had heard that song when Rachel had accidently and randomly started singing a song a few months ago, that happened to be called The Geeks Get the Girls. "Maybe more…" He shook his head before looking at Lily, "How are you? Besides the fact that you must be in constant pain and your voice is nearly gone…"

Raph pouted but let it slide. He went over to the table instead, grabbing a bucket and went to the sink. He filled it with hot water and grabbed a cloth. He then started cleaning up, a payment since he had also bleed a lot when he had been changed, too.

Lily smiled softly, "No…there's no pain except what my throat gives me. I'm…" she trailed off, her mind fluttering back to memories. She had seen Raphael as he watched him leave the lab, and a minute or two after that Rachel had 'tripped' and shared a kiss. She had been shocked at that memory because his thoughts had been exactly the same as hers.

'If only I could do that…'

She blushed and bit her lip, but quickly stopped as her teeth pierced her skin with only light pressure. She liked away the blood as it healed. Lily focused back on Don, and noticed he had come closer. She blinked, startled, but couldn't look away. She was too mesmerized by his eyes.

They were still dark brown, but now had a light sprinkle of gold dust in them and a ring of gold around his pupil and iris. He stood on the balls of his feet, like she did, and she noticed a new grace to his movements. His step was lighter, as if something other than his shell's weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

She realized she hadn't answered his question and tried again, "I guess I'm doing f…" she was silenced, and the only hint to what was happening before she registered it was what Raph said.

Raph smirked to himself, "I started a trend. Matt'll die to hear that…" he chuckled very softly and went back to cleaning.

Lily couldn't move, couldn't think. Her eyes widened as she felt soft lips against hers…the cause to her stolen breath. She couldn't help but respond; closing her eyes like had had his.

Don had moved while Lily was talking, and cut her off. He heard what Raph said and had to smile inwardly. At least she was responding back. He gently brought her a bit closer, but didn't deepen the kiss too much.

When both of them needed air, they reluctantly pulled away. She stared into his eyes, dazzled by them, and then she wrapped her arms all the way around his waist. She buried her face into his chest and smiled; glad she could finally wrap him in a full embrace.

Lily breathed deeply as well…now that Donatello was no longer cold-blooded his warmth finally gave him a distinctive smell. Earth…he smelled strongly of sunshine heated soil. He had the slight tinge of copper also, to show he wasn't all sweet. He was mouthwatering apple as well, and that mixed with cinnamon. However, the sunshine-terra scent was dominant.

"You smell good…" she murmured.

"Thanks," Don said softly as he gently nuzzled her neck. "So do you," He could smell the vanilla and spearmint on her. She also had other scents, but he didn't bother naming them all. The vanilla and spearmint was all that he needed to say to describe her.

She chuckled, "Seems I've given you my senses," she smiled but felt herself slipping…but it was a good kind of slip, "Donny-Don, why don't we go to…" she yawned, "You're room? We'll both be out-cold in about a five minutes or less no matter what we do. So let's crash somewhere safe."

"Okay," Don said softly as he gently let her lean against him. They both walked out of the lab and ignored everyone as they went to the room to sleep.

Once they were out of sight and hearing range, the first word out of Brianna's mouth was; "Wow…"
