A few days later...
Slash wanted to make his best friend happy again and the only thing he could think of at the moment was the party that was happening tonight. He called up Mikey. He knew that if he brought Mikey with him it would be easier to convince her to go. They pulled up to her house and sat in the car thinking over their plan.
"Okay, Mona hasn't been to a party in a long, long, LONG time and it's up to us to show her a good time to help her get over your dickhead of a brother. No offense." Slash said
"None taken."
"She will resist but with enough begging she will give in. Are you ready?" Slash asked. Mikey nodded and they got out the car. They walked up to Mona's door. Slash rang the door bell.
"Mona! I know you're in there." He yelled. They heard stomping and then the door swung open. Mikey and Slash quickly backed up and looked down at the red faced girl.
"What do you guys want?" Mona asked. Slash slowly stepped forward.
"Me and Mikey wanted to come by to see if you're okay?"
"I'm fine. Come in." Mona moved to let her two friends into her house. They went to the living room and sat together. It was silent. Mona looked at them. They were fidgeting and kept looking at one another.
"Okay, what do you guy really want?" She asked.
"We want to take you to a party tonight to cheer you up!" Mikey smiled. Mona rolled her eyes.
"No. I hate parties. I am not going." She refused. Slash grabbed her shoulders and looked into her eyes.
"Please please please please go to the party. We want you to be there and we want you to take your mind off of Ra-" Mona put her hand up.
"Don't say his name." She growled.
"Understandable. Please come! We want you to have fun and see you smile again." Slash smiled. Mona looked at Slash then Mikey who was on his knees begging. She groaned.
"Urgh. Fine I'll go!" Slash and Mikey cheered.
"But on one condition! If I don't feel comfortable at all at anytime at the party, no matter what you guys are doing, we're leaving. Deal?"
"Deal." They said.
"Alright. Time to call April." Mikey took out his phone.
"April? Why are you calling her?" Slash asked.
"I told her the plan and she insisted on giving Mona a little makeover for the party to lift her confidence." Mikey explained. Mona looked down at her clothes.
"My clothes are perfectly fine, Mikey."
"Yea, they are but not for a party." Mikey dialed April's number.
"Hey April! Yea, she's going. You can come over now." Mikey hung up and smiled.
"She'll be here in-" The door bell rang. Mikey went to get it and came back with April by his side.
"Apparently now." He shrugged.
"Alright let's get to work!" April clapped. Mona was now scared.
After searching through Mona's closet and her mother's, April came up with the perfect outfit for Mona to wear to the party. She walked into Mona's room and looked at Mona doing her hair and makeup.
"Woah! Mona, you look great." April said. Mona turned to her. Her hair was down and sleek. Her makeup was amazing. She went with a natural look.
"Really? Thank you. I don't really put makeup on."
"You should. You look beautiful." Mona gave her a look and a half grin.
"Oh no! Not that you need it." April felt embarrassed. Mona laughed.
"It's fine. I know what you mean." April was relieved. She laughed a little too. Mona walked over to her.
"What did you find in my mom's closet?" April held up her finds.
"I found the cutest leather jacket and a pair of ankle booties to go with your shirt and jeans." She laid them down on the bed.
"I like it!" Mona smiled.
"Me too. I just wish you'll add a little color to your outfit." April looked down at the all black, except the white shirt, outfit.
"It's just fine. I think I'll look cute." April squealed at Mona's confidence. This little makeover was already lifting up Mona's spirits.
"Alright I'll leave you to get ready. See ya down stairs." April walked out and close the door behind her.
"What's taking her so long?" Mikey moaned. He was slumped on the couch.
"Are you always this impatient?" Slash shoved Mikey.
"Stop. She's probably nervous to show off her new look." April walked back and forth in the living room.
"Maybe. But I'm sure she'll look fi-" Slash looked towards the stairs as Mona walked down it.
"Mona, you look great!" Mikey jumped off the couch and ran to Mona. He took a hold of her hands and looked her up and down.
"Damn girl, my brother is an idiot." April smacked him on the back of his head. Mona laughed as Mikey winced in pain. Slashed walked over and hug her.
"He's right though. You look great, Mona." Slashed said. Mona smiled at her friend.
"Thank you. Thank all of you for giving me a little makeover and confidence boost. I needed it."
"Okay are we ready to party!" Mikey yelled. Everyone cheered. They all headed out the door and into the car to the party.
They arrived and parked down the block from the party. Mona got more nervous as they got closer to the house. She could see lights flashing and hear people cheering from the backyard. She stopped.
"Nope. Can't do it. I'm going home." She turned around and headed towards the car. Slash grabbed her.
"No no no. You promised you would go, so you're going."
"I also said that if I feel uncomfortable then we're all leaving." She pulled her arm away and stared down Slash.
"You also said 'at the party' and we're not at the party yet." Mona wanted to speak but didn't. He got her there. Slash smirked and directed her to the house. Mona groaned and walked. She felt like she couldn't breathe as she walked up to the house. She saw people from school looking at her, whispering. She saw people from other schools do the same thing. She saw Lotus and her girls glared at her and guys smiled. She cringed. They all walked in the house. There was music blasting from the speakers and sweaty people dancing. Mikey walked past her and took her hand. April and Slash followed.
"Come on guys Leo and Donnie are in the sun room with Renet and Allie." Mikey yelled over the music. 'Leo and Donnie? Does that mean Raph is here too?' She panicked.
"Is Raphael there?" April asked.
"He's here somewhere but not with Leo and Donatello." Mikey said. Mona let out a sigh of relief. They walked into the sun room. Leo, Donatello, and Renet and Allie were chatting away and laughing as they sat around a large table. They all stopped when Mikey ran over to Renet and sat between her and Allie. Slash and April sat down leaving Mona.
"Sup' mama." Mikey smirked. Renet laughed and smacked Mikey's arm.
"Woah. Is that you Mona?" Donatello asked. Leo looked over at her standing in the middle of the room. Leo felt hot.
"Yeah. April gave me a little makeover for the party." Mona walked and sat next to Leonardo. He tensed up. Everyone went back to talking. Mona turned to Leo.
"Hey, are you having a good time?" She asked. She batted her eyelashes and smiled.
"Yeah I am. But it just got better though." Leo smiled.
Raph was glad he came to the party. Right? He wanted to take his mind off of his fight with Mona. The girl just gets to him. Both good and bad. He sat in the living room drinking beer and watching people dancing. He bobbed his head with the beat of the music. He saw his Mikey come in with some really hot girl awhile ago and didn't bother to greet him. The girl looked familiar to him but he shrugged it off. He saw Mez coming towards him. She sat down next to him and started playing with his hair.
"What's wrong Raphie? Ya' lonely?" Mez slurred. She was a little buzzed. Raph batted her hand away.
"Shut up. Where's your little girlfriend?" Raph took a big sip of his drink. Mez laughed.
"Radical? She stayed home tonight. What you jealous?" Truth was Mez was a little jealous. She noticed how much Raph was hanging out with that little Mona girl. She sometimes missed Raph. They had good times and bad times. Mostly bad. Which is why they broke up. But still she loves him and the sex wasn't bad either.
"Ha! Why don't you go bother someone else?"
"Fine. I'll go bother your little friend Mona. She looks very cute tonight." Mez got up. She felt Raph grab her hand and pull her back down to the couch.
"Mona? Mona's here? Where?" He asked. He watched as Mez thought about it.
"Eh I don't feel like telling you." Mez smirked. She quickly got up and left the room. Raph followed her. He lost her in the crowd. He then got bumped hard and almost lost his balance. He looked behind him and saw Xever smirking at him.
"Watch where you're going." Raph growled.
"Or what, punk?"
"Or I'm gonna knock your face into your skull." Raph flipped Xever off and went to find Mez. Xever walked out to the backyard and grabbed a drink off the table. He thought about Raph and how he can't wait to fight him in the next competition. He smiled to himself just thinking about it. He turned around and saw Leo coming out of the house with a girl hooked on his arm. 'How the hell does this guy get all the hot girls?' He looked closer and recognized the girl. It was Mona. He hadn't seen her since she threw his stuff out of Slash's moving car when she found out he cheated. She looked completely different. She was sexier to him and he thought she looked great in all black. Mona looked at him and stopped in here tracks. Her face became hard. Xever smirked at her. He did always like her spunk.
"What happened, Mona?" Leo asked.
"My ex-boyfriend is what happened?" She groaned. Xever walked over to her.
"Hey, Mona." He completely ignored Leo. Leo glared at him as he kept getting closer to Mona. Leo put his hand on Xever's chest and pushed him back a little.
"Hey, I just want to talked to Mona." Xever couldn't take his eyes off of Mona. He thought about the things he would do with her dressed like that.
"Xever's your ex? Why?" Leo asked. Mona shrugged.
"Come on, Mona. Let's talk for a bit. Please." Mona hesitated.
"Fine. Only for a bit." She whispered. Xever smiled and walked into the house. Leo looked at Mona with concern. She put her hand in his.
"I'll be fine, Leo. I'll be back before you know it." She smiled at him and walked into the house. Leo stood there feeling uneasy. He decided to follow her and stood as far as he could so she wouldn't see him.
