"Don't be nervous." Willow breathed out as she went back over to her full size bed, shoving a hand full of clothing into the large duffle bag that was on it. Leonardo leaned his shoulder against the door jam leading into the hallway, watching his fiancé rush back and fourth past him in an erratic behavior. He sighed shifting his weight on another foot and crossing his ankles as Willow stopped and ran back towards her closet, grabbing another pair of jeans and tossing two pair out letting all the clothing that had been on top fall out onto the bed.

"I'm not nervous." He replied for the third time, fighting back a smile as Willow shook her head rushing back towards her closet.

"No Tiger, it's ok to be nervous. It's fine, I mean, there is nothing to be nervous about but, still it's fine if you are." She stammered as he breathed out a soft laugh, pushing himself from the wall and catching her by the shoulders her in front of him as she started to turn back towards her closet again.

"Will." She let her eyes flicker up to his soft brown ones, gaining her complete attention and letting herself calm under his gaze. "Everyone is down stairs waiting. It's just a weekend with your family. We have all done this before and I'm not scared of your family. Nothing they do or say will make me not want to marry you, or stop loving you." He said sternly gripping his hands tighter into the soft skin of her arms but, a smile on his lips. She sighed softly letting her eyes move down his blue button up shirt covered torso and her hold body relaxing into his, laying her head on his strong chest.

"You promise?" She asked softly as he smiled and gave her a kiss on the top of her head. "My grandmother can be crazy, you've never met my grandmother," she lifted her head to look up at him "and my grandpa is a handful! They'll both ask you random questions that make no sense and she can be mean, and not even know it and he is crude and loud. I mean Leo, I don't think-" He kissed her rambling lips as she sighed against his soft ones.

"Let's go." He said tugging on her hand. She turned back to her room as he pulled her towards the apartment door, swinging her large duffle bag over his shoulder.

"Oh but, wait, Tiger there's my other…" She said reaching for another pair of jeans and he pulled her towards him with a smile.

"Will, shut up." He chuckled as she sighed and nodded following him out of her apartment. She locked her door as Leo waited with a smile, his hand extended to hers. She took it with another sigh and walked along side him, their hands lightly swinging in between their bodies.

"I feel sick." She groaned when Leo pressed the down button for the elevator. He chuckled lightly, shaking his head as the doors opened.

"You're over reacting." He shrugged as she shook her head.

"I don't think you get it." She sighed, holding her palm to her forehead and brushing back her side swiped bangs.

"I understand a crazy family just as much as any other person Willow. I have three brothers."

"Who were raised with good values and morals. My family are like screaming banshees comparatively."

"Have you seen Mikey after eating a package of pixie sticks? Same reaction." Leo asked in a joking tone as Willow sighed.

"Leonardo, this is serious."

"I'm well aware of how serious Willow, however, I still think you are over reacting. I'm not going anywhere." He told her, taking her hand in his and giving it a light squeeze. "Ever."

The doors opened and the couple made their way out to the street where his family and her friends waited for them. Willow's car was filled with luggage and Riley and Michelangelo in the back seat. Felicia, Raphael, Donatello and Isabella where all in Felicia's old jeep idling behind them, their bags stacked in the back.

The chocolate brunette honked her horn with a smile as Willow sighed shaking her head and Leonardo waved at them before making his way over, tossing Willow's bag in her trunk.

"We're gonna get going, you following us?" He asked resting his forearms over Felicia's rolled down driverside window as she nodded, adjusting her thick rimmed glasses.

"Yeah, we'll be right behind ya." She smiled as and Leo patted the car door before walking over to Willow's drivers side. She was leaning against the car twirling the keys on her finger, but he caught them in mid-swing.

"What are you doing?" She asked watching as he tried to move her aside with a small nudge of the back of his hand. He smiled leaning down and kissing her cheek.

"Will, you're not driving." He said simply as she backed away with narrowed eyes, crossing her arms over her chest.

"And why the hell not?"

"You're all worked up and jumpy, that's not good on that highway. I'll drive and you can calm down."

"I'm perfectly fine Leonardo, I do not need you to-"

"Willow, please just get in the car." He said a little more stern she narrowed her eyes and turned in a huff. She made her way around the back of the car and got into the passenger seat, slamming the door of her blue Yaris shut. He sighed and slid into the driver seat, starting the car. "Please Will, I don't want to fight." He said holding his hand out on the center console as she looked down at his large open palm. She let out a soft sigh and grasping his hand tightly.

"Me neither." She breathed as Mikey leaned forward on his elbows looking between the two as Boba sat next to him, licking his cheek.

"Road trip! I'm totally excited! Can we stop for T-Bell?" He asked as Leo sighed and Willow smirked.

"We're not stopping." Leo said as Riley groaned leaning against Mikey's strong back scratching Boba's ears as her head laid on Mikey's lap.

"C'mon Leo! You're not being fair! We should totally stop and get some tee-bell…" She whined as Leo sighed, pulling into traffic as Felicia followed behind him.

"See, this is why I don't want children." Willow said looking over at Leo with a smirk before glancing back out her window, their hands still grasped tightly in the center.

Three hours and two stops later Leonardo pulled down the long driveway to Willow's family home. She smiled up at her childhood home and sighed turning to look at the line of cars in the driveway.

"This is bigger than excepted." Riley said with a chuckle as she stepped out of the car, letting Boba out with her. Rufio came running down the porch steps, greeting Boba as they both ran off into the large yard together. Riley waved with a smile at the small family already gathered on the porch.

Willow's mother stood, waving widely back with a smile as Leonardo opened the trunk and Riley grabbed her duffle bag, as Mikey made his way to the back to grab his things. Felicia pulled in moments later and they all got out of the cramped jeep, stretching and gathering their belongings from the back. Leonardo smiled at Felicia as she walked over to him, hoisting her back higher on her shoulder.

"She not moving?" She asked as Leo craned his neck to look inside the passenger side noticing Willow biting her thumb nail. Her hand moved quickly up and down, from her elbow being perched on her knee that shook up and down.

"Nope." Leo sighed as Felicia rolled her eyes and moved to the side of the car tapping lightly on window. Willow snapped her head up at her best friend as she smiled opening the door a little.

"What?"

"You plan on coming to say hello?" She asked with a smirk as Willow sighed and nodded her head.

"Might as well get it over with." She shrugged as Felicia rolled her eyes tugging her hand to pull her to her feet and shut the car door.

"Willow Marie!" She cringed to the sound of her grandmother's voice yelling out over the large yard. Felicia chuckled as she turned to walk up the porch steps. Tyler ran down at them as Felicia moved out of the way with another laugh.

"Hi Tyler." She said as she moved to hug Willow's mother and then her own that were standing to greet everyone on the porch.

"Will!" Tyler called out as he leaped over Rufio and Boba playing, to rush over to his sister, wrapping his arms tightly around her and spinning her around the yard. "Oh so, so, so glad you're here! The heat is no longer on me! Oh thank God!" He said shaking her back in forth in a hug as Willow groaned from the tightness of it.

"Ty, air…" She chocked out as he let her go.

"Sorry. Sup Leo." He said putting down his sister as he held out his hand to pound fists with the eldest brother. Leo smirked shaking his head as Hayden came down the stairs next.

"So, what were they asking you?" Willow asked as they made their way to the porch. Hayden walked over helping Riley with her bag as Mikey gave him a nod in hello and followed everyone to the porch where the family waited.

"Grandma thinks I am a man whore, aunt Dana thinks I'm gay and mom and Jane say I'm just going through a phase." He said as he wrapped his arm around Willow's shoulder as they walked up the porch steps.

"Oh, well you are gay." She said shoving his arm away and making her way towards her mother and Felicia's mother Jane. Tyler's mouth dropped open in offense as he turned towards Leo who had a large smile over his face and shrugged his shoulders.

"You're marryin' a horrible woman. I hope you know that?" Tyler warned as Leo chuckled lightly patting his shoulder in passing as he made his way into the porch screen house.

"And, this is Leo." Willow announced turning towards Leonardo as he ducked his head into the small area filled with woman, sitting in patio furniture with glasses of wine perched in front of them on the large glass table. All their eyes looked towards him as soon as he entered. Willow smiled with a slight grimace, turning away from the table of women and placed her hands on his broad chest.

"My, my, my." a heavy set woman with dark brown, almost black hair with piercing blue eyes said, flipping her curly thick hair over her shoulder. She leaned forward in her seat, placing her forearm across her crossed legs. "This is Leo?" She asked as Willow smiled up at Leo before mouthing 'I'm sorry' and turning back towards the woman.

"Yeah, aunt Dana this is Leo."

"I told you." Maggie said in a giggle as Jane smiled, standing from her seat that Felicia perched herself on the arm of.

"Hi Leo I'm Jane, Felicia's mom. Where are your brother's?"

"There is more of him?" An older woman who was assumed to be Willow's grandmother said with a scrunched up nose. "He doesn't look Chinese." Willow groaned slapping a hand to her forehead as Leo chuckled lightly with a shrug.

"It's actually Japanese and we were adopted." Leo explained lightly as Willow's aunt Dana swooned over his voice. Maggie rolled her eyes swatting her sister's arm as Jane chuckled.

Raphael and Donatello walked into the screen house next followed by Michelangelo as Dana gasped and Jane's brow arched slightly, elbowing Felicia's rips. She fell into her mother's seat with a wince as she rubbed her sore side.

"Oh good lord in heaven." Dana said in a breath as Maggie chuckled shaking her head.

"Hey boys. Beers in the fridge." She said as Willow nodded moving past the four brother's and making a B-line to the kitchen.

"She's a little nervous." Leo said hoisted his and Will's bag higher on his shoulder.

"Nervous? Of what?" Her grandmother scoffed as Maggie sighed.

"Nothing mah, I'm gonna go get another glass of wine you want one?" She asked turning towards the table of woman. They all nodded as Riley made her way inside leaning her chin on Mikey's shoulder he turned to look at her with a smile as he wrapped his arm around her waist, tugging her to lean against his front. "You want one too love?" Maggie asked Riley as she smiled and nodded.

"So which one are you?" Grandma asked pointing towards Mikey as he nervously ran his hand through his hair.

"Uh, Mikey." He smiled, flashing his dimples.

"Oh Jesus, you are a cutie." Dana said as Mikey blushed slightly.

"Isn't he?" Riley said smacking his cheek as she moved to sit down.

"So how long have you two been going out?" Grandma asked sipping her wine as Riley's eyes widened.

"Oh, no, no we haven't-"

"You two aren't dating?" Dana asked as Felicia snorted, moving her hand to cover her face as Izzy chuckled, covering it with a cough.

"No." Riley said looking towards Felicia and Izzy frantically for help as Izzy shook her head, going into the house, followed by Hayden as they burst with laughter once the door shut behind them.

Willow sung open the large black refrigerator grabbing the first thing she saw and untwisting the cap. Coors Light. She sighed, at least she didn't grab a Guinness so she'd have to chew it. She heard the swinging door from the porch open and the house door open next as her mother walked in with a smile.

"You're fine." She sighed over exasperated as Willow rolled her eyes.

"Good for you to say, you're not the one that is getting her brother-in-laws and future husband gawked at like man candy!" Willow said throwing her arm out angrily towards the window where she could see her Aunt Dana's eyes move slowly up and down on one of the brothers.

Maggie laughed taking out another bottle of wine and uncorking it as she pored four glasses. "They're fine. I'm sure they're used to it, I mean they are beautiful." She said in a smile, tiliting her head back to look out the window.

"Mah, stop! You're not funny."

"Oh Jesus Willow, you're over reacting. Calm down." Willow took a slow breath as Maggie looked towards Hayden and Izzy who came in next. "Izz, sweetie, can you help me with these?" She asked holding out two wineglasses for her to take outside. "And you, grab beers for the boys! They're going to need them." She said pointing a finger that grasped onto a wine stem at Willow as she nodded and went into the fridge gabbing two Coors Lights. She went back outside in a deep breath with the three beers in her hand, handing one to Leo and one to Raph as she went to sit in her mother's chair.

"And you, you're which one?" Grandma asked Raph as he swigged his beer and wiped his chin with the back of his hand.

"Uh, Raph." He said clearing his throat as Grandma arched a brow and looked towards Willow.

"Short for Raphael grandma." She said with a sigh as the older woman made a face and shook her head.

"And the one that's hiding in the back?"

"That's Donnie." Willow answered for him as he smiled and Mikey wrapped an arm around his shoulders pushing him forward.

"You were all adopted?" She asked as Leo nodded. "How old are you?" She looked only at Leo as he looked back towards Raph who hid a smile by swiping his beer.

"I'm twenty six." He stated as she moved her gaze towards Raph.

"Twenty five." He smiled. "We're alla year apart." He shrugged as Grandma nodded.

"You're real parents must have been busy. Speaking of which, where is your father? You only have a father now, correct?" Willow ran her hands through her hair nervously, her leg beginning to bounce up and down on the ball of her foot again as Leo smiled and moved to her side. He rubbed her shoulders soothingly as she placed a hand on his.

"Yeah, he is back home staying with some family friends of ours." Leo answered. "He has been feeling a bit under the weather lately."

"Oh I'm sorry to hear that it would have been nice to meet him."

"He'll be at the wedding." Willow answered as Leo moving one on his hands to her neck, rubbing the back of her skull through her thick hair. She sighed softly leaning into his touch as Dana eyed them carefully.

"Oh, you two are in love." She whispered as Willow turned towards her with a wide smile. "You've been together for five years and you're still that happy? That's uncommon." She arched a brow.

"They're not exactly a common couple." Felicia answered for them as Willow and Leo both sent her a smile.

Willow, her mother and her aunt plated the dinner they prepared with the help of her grandmother and other girls as they all sat in the kitchen. Maggie smiled over at Willow as she passed her a salad bowl to bring out into the dining room where all the men, including her father and grandfather were sitting.

"This is completely barbaric." Izzy grumbled as she was handed a plate with silverware.

"What's that dear?" Maggie asked looking towards Willow as they both smirked and rolled their eyes.

"This whole woman cook, men eat thing. It's a complete insult to all the things woman have worked for and achieved in time." She said in a huff as Felicia sighed shoving her towards the dining room.

"Excuse me," Grandma said looking towards Izzy and then furrowed her brow, looking towards Riley who sat at the table with her. "what's her name?"

"Izzy." Riley said in a smirk as she let her eyes flicker from Izzy's back to Grandma.

"Izzy but, I have been married fifty years and in those fifty years I cooked and cleaned and had five children."

"That's an achievement in itself." Felicia said with a smile as she patted Grandma's shoulder.

"They don't make you girls like they used to. You wouldn't last three seconds in the life I lived before you ran out the door screaming in fear. That, makes a strong woman." She said pointing at Izzy as she took another sip of wine.

"I think what Izzy meant was times have changed mom, that's all." Dana offered as Grandma rolled her eyes.

"Smells good in here." Tyler said with a smile, breaking the tense silence as Willow sighed in relief. He leaned over and kissed his grandmother on the cheek as she patted his cheek, before gasping it in her hands and squeezing.

"How does a boy so handsome not have a steady girlfriend?" She asked as he sighed and moved towards the oven and looked over his mother's shoulders, gripping them in his hands.

"Not this again." He sighed. "Ah man, Grandma's sauce. Did Willow mess it up?" He asked looking at Maggie as she laughed and smacked his hand away with a towel.

"Shut up." Willow said from beside him as she cut up vegetables.

"Last time you attempted it, it tasted like feet." Tyler said with a face as Riley and her mom started laughing.

"I was like twelve last time, this time I have the master to help." Maggie cleared her throat, putting her arms over her chest as Will smirked. "Master-s." She corrected as Maggie smiled.

"Better. I thought I told everyone to stay in the dining room?"

"Grandpa was getting impatient." He chuckled as Hayden came in next with Mikey.

"We're here to get rolls." Hayden said as Mikey ran his hand through his hair nervously.

"He can wait to eat just like everyone else." Grandma said as Hayden smiled nudging Mikey's side.

"Watch this." He whispered as he turned his head towards the dining room and pushed the door open a little. "Hey Grandpa, Grandma says we all gotta wait."

"What!?" The voice of a tired old man called from the living room as Hayden snickered and pushed Mikey back out of the way. "What the hell is your problem?" An old man with a thick head of graying hair, navy blue polo shirt and khaki slacks asked his wife as he came storming into the kitchen. "You tell us all to sit in here and wait, when the fucking food isn't even ready yet?" Tyler covered his mouth with his hand from a laugh as Maggie smacked him upside the head. Grandma got to her feet.

"If you weren't such a pig you'd be able to present yourself like a gentlemen in front of those boys!" She yelled back.

"Those boys don't give a shit what I do! I want my dinner!"

"You're going to get it if you just go back and sit down!"

"If I get back in there and it's not on the table in five minuets I'm leaving." He said pointing towards his wife as she rolled her eyes.

"And where are you gonna go? McDonalds? Fine! Go eat that food! You never appreciated mine anyways!"

"Ah, the hell with you!" He yelled back going into the dining room as Hayden started laughing. Grandma glared at him, and smacked him in the arm with a wooden spoon from the counter.

"Ow, what was that for?"

"Go give the ogre his rolls." She said thrusting a bowl of bread at him as she turned towards Izzy and motioned for her to follow. She jumped to a walk, nervously making it out of the kitchen before Hayden got to the door.

Hayden and Mikey sat back down in their seats, with a free chair beside Mikey. Raphael was next to it with another free chair and then Leo beside that. Donatello sat with two free chairs beside him and then Paul, and Willow's grandfather at the head of the table.

"So Leo, what do you do for a living?" Grandpa asked as Leo rested his hands in front of him on the table.

"I, teach martial arts." He smiled as Grandpa nodded with a face of approval.

"None of you boys in the service?" He asked looking towards Raph as they all shook their heads. "Shame, this country could use some boys like you at a time like this. And, what about you?" He asked nodding towards Mikey as he shoved a roll into his mouth. Hayden chuckled taking a swig of his beer as he relaxed back into his seat.

"I ah, run a kids party service." He said swallowing the roll as Raph shook his head and Leo ran his hand through his hair, scratching the back of his head with a wince.

"Oh boy." Raph sighed as Willow's grandfather gave Mikey an odd look.

"A party service for what son?"

"Kids birthday parties." He shrugged as he turned towards Raph. "What?" He asked softly as Raph just shook his head with a smile.

"What are you fruity in the pants for something?" He asked as Raph leaned forward in a laugh, and Hayden and Tyler nearly chocked on their beers. Hayden went behind Mikey and pounded fists with Raph as they both tired to settle their laughter.

Riley and Izzy walked in with bowls of spaghetti and meatballs setting them down on the table in front of Grandpa and Paul. Paul smiled up at the girls as Riley smiled back looking over the table at Mikey.

"You might want to go sit beside him." He whispered into her ear when she bent over to place the bowl on the table. She smirked and looked back over at the youngest and his pale, sad face.

"You want another beer baby?" She called as Mikey lifted his head to her voice and furrowed his brow. She nodded her head towards Grandpa as a smile went across Mikey's face, flashing his dimples.

"I would love one, thanks babe." He said holding out his empty to her as she walked around the table next to him, leaning her body against his side and running her hand down from his shoulder and across his chest. Leaning her face into the side of his and giving him a kiss on the cheek she dragged her lips up to his ear and grasped the beer bottle from his hands.

"You owe me so big for this." She whispered in his ear before kissing him again and walking back into the kitchen. Mikey's face kept his large smile as he sighed happily, sitting back in his chair.

The rest of the woman came out with more bowls of food and bread and settled themselves into the free seating. Maggie sat in between her father and Paul and Grandma sat on the other side of Grandpa. Dana sat next to her with Mikey on her left and Riley on his. Raphael was next to her and Felicia was next to him. Willow sat in between Leo and Tyler and Hayden sat next to him with Donnie on his left.

Willow leaned over to Leo as he took another bite of the delicious food, trying to hold back any noise like the rest of his brother's were making. She smiled as she watched him eat and kissed his slightly stubble cheek. The rest of the table immersed in their own separate conversations filling the small room with voices.

"Love you." She whispered as he smiled and turned towards her.

"Love you too, you really made all this?" He asked motioning towards the table as she smiled and nodded.

"Well, I know you boys can eat, and I know those two can." She said pointing towards Hayden and Tyler. "And those two." She smirked pointing towards her father and grandfather. "A lot of food seemed appropriate. There is pie and cookies too." She said running her fingers over the back of neck, smoothing out his soft hair there and fixing the collar of his light blue button down shirt.

"You are amazing." He said leaning over and kissing her cheek as she giggled and Hayden made a gagging noise. Dana started tapping her wine glass with the side of her fork as Felicia and Riley joined in. Leo leaned back over to Willow and smiled from the wide smile on her face. "What's that mean?"

She turned her head and leaned into his ear. "At a wedding it means that bride and groom have to kiss." She said through a small laugh as he nodded brushing some hair from the side of her face, cupping her cheek in his large hand and bringing it closer to his for a soft kiss. Maggie and Dana 'awed' with happiness before clapping their hands.

"I can't believe my baby is getting married!" Maggie squealed, getting from her seat and hugging Willow's shoulder and moving to Leo, throwing her arms around him, bringing his body into her chest. Leo smiled patting Maggie's arm in return as he looked over at Willow as she pressed her lips together, tying to hold back her laughing.

"Hey, I thought I was the baby?" Hayden asked with a pout.

"Bring home a girl once of these days and we can talk." Maggie said waving off her son before placing her hand back on Leo's head, as Tyler chuckled.

A small bond fire set up in the backyard of the Gionado home was burning bright as a large cooler of beer and wine sat near the chairs circling the fire. Hayden sat with a smile, his acoustic guitar on his lap and beer between his feet on the ground. Tyler sat beside him laughing from a story he was telling about him and Willow in high school. Felicia, Izzy and Riley sat next to each other on a bench with Mikey, Raph and Donnie in separate chairs all beers in their grasped. Leonardo sat with Willow on his lap and his head back with laughter as Willow's face was blushed red.

"That's not even the best part!" Tyler said after taking another sip of his beer. "So, Will walks through the Football field, still in her Field Hockey skirt and shirt to this kid and whacks him right in the head with her stick! He didn't even see it coming! His buddies started calling her out and Hayden wasn't havin' any of that with his skater friends." Tyler chuckled motioning his beer towards Hayden as he smiled.

"Some douche called her a crazy bitch! She is, but I mean no one can call her that but us." He chuckled as he and Tyler clanked their bottles together.

"Then these three hear 'bout it days later and all hell breaks lose!" Tyler chuckled as Riley nodded and Felicia blushed.

"It was time those Football piece of man whore trash learned some manners." Izzy said sipping her wine as Riley clapped her hands.

"Here here!" She chuckled as Willow laughed along with them.

"Way to go Will." Raph said raising his bottle to her as she mimicked the gesture.

"Yeah really, a Field Hockey stick?" Leo asked with a smirk as she rolled her eyes.

"Next time we're out we'll be sure to have Casey bring one for ya." Mikey chuckled as Raph nodded.

"Yeah I'm good with that." Willow said sarcastically as Leo nodded.

"Better be." He whispered into her hair as she smiled moving into his chest.

"So are you ready for the real shit tomorrow?" Riley asked looking towards the happy couple as Leo smiled.

"I think I'll be fine."

"What 'bout you?" Felicia asked looking down the line of brothers. "Wait until you meet the uncles, and more aunt's. They're just as bad." She said as Donnie made a grimace. Mikey shrugged sipping his beer as Raph just snorted, sitting back in his chair and parting his legs.

"I think we can handle a buncha Italians." Felicia smirked and Tyler reached over from his seat towards the empty cooler.

"We're tapped." He sighed as Felicia smiled and got from her seat.

"I'll get 'em, I gotta go to the bathroom anyways." She said as Raph followed her with his eyes until her body went into the darkness that lead to the porch steps. He heard the soft creak and bounce of the screen door opening and closing as she entered the house and returned his attention back toward the conversation.

"So, Donnie-boy you got that speech written yet?" Riley asked widening her legs and taking up most of Felicia's space on the bench.

"Some, not all. The wedding isn't for awhile." He shrugged as Willow nodded.

"I still have to get the invitations I like, I have to check out that hall that April was talking about, set a date, call a catering company, pick out a cake, pick out a dress, flowers, tuxes, place settings, napkins, glassware, bands, Deejays-"

"Babe…" Leo said rubbing his hands up and down Willow's arms as she sighed and relaxed into his touch. "Calm down. Too much, you're gonna explode." He chuckled as she nodded.

"Dude, when did you become a chick?" Hayden asked looking at Willow with concern as Tyler chuckled. Willow narrowed her eyes and tossed an empty beer bottle at them as Tyler caught it before it smashed into the patio cement.

"Nice asshole, we would have never heard the end of it from mom." Tyler said placing the bottle beside his own as Willow smiled.

"I gotta go take a leak." Raph said getting from the chair as Mikey watched him walk away.

"Notice those two sneakin' off a lot together?" He asked looking at Riley as Willow rolled her eyes.

"Leave 'em alone. You really think Raph is one to procrastinate about something he wants? He wants it, he'll take it."

"Does it want him though?" Izzy asked as Willow shook her head.

"Of course, who wouldn't?" She asked as Leo looked up at her slowly. She smiled. "Who wouldn't want a Hamato brother all for their own?" She correct as he nodded his head.

"Uh huh." He said as she rolled her eyes and leaned down to kiss his sun-kissed colored skin.

Raphael walked into the house, catching the screen door to the house before it hit against it's frame and running his hands on his back pockets of his jeans. He could feel the beer making his head a little fuzzy as he caught himself on the back of a chair at the kitchen table. He leaned back up, looking into the living room noticing the small light seeping from the bathroom down the hall. Walking towards it and knocking lightly with a sigh he leaned his shoulder against the wall. A moment later the door opened as Felicia smiled tucking a stand of hair behind her ear, her glasses removed from her face and her pigtails out, her choppy short hair mussed up around her head.

Her blazer dark green she had been wearing all day was removed and showed off a black ribbed tank top, with purple ruffled lace going over the top of her breasts. Her shoes were kicked off in the doorway, as her bare feet peaking out from the top of her dark washed flare jeans rolled around on the carpet nervously.

"Wow…" Raph said as his eyes widened slightly taking in Felicia's new appearance.

"W-what?" She asked her face burning from a blush as she dropped her eyes from his.

"You uh, just look, different." He shrugged. Her eyes slowly moved back to his as a smile smirk tugged at his lips and the lone dimple making itself own in his stubble cheek.

"Good different?" She asked as he nodded his head.

"Yeah, good different." He smirked as she smiled back. "You done in there?" He asked pointing towards the bathroom as she looked behind her and nodded.

"Y-yeah, sorry. Uh, lemme just get my stuff." She said going back in and shoving things that laid on the floor into her small overnight bag. Raph smirk as he noticed a lacey fabric poking out from the top before she shoved her glasses and contact lens solution on top of it.

She grasped her bag and started for the door as Raph stepped in her way to get in on accident. She blushed and moved to the side as he did the same. They both laughed as Raph grabbed her by the upper arms and picked her up, moving her into the hall. Her face felt like it was on fire as he winked at her and closed the door behind him.

She walked into the kitchen, grabbing a few beers and another bottle of wine before making her way back down to the fire pit. Riley and Mikey were sitting on the bench, together seeming like they were deeply immersed in their own conversation. Izzy had moved to take Mikey's seat next to Donnie as they're heads hung together in deep conversation. Willow and Leo were gone from their chair and Tyler and Hayden tossed a ball out to the dark yard for Boba.

Felicia shrugged tugging her sweater she had draped over the back of a kitchen chair tighter around her body. Seeing as her seat was taken and took Raph's feeling the warmth of it engulf her body and sighed back into it. She could smell him all around her and sighed again, twisting the bottle cap off her beer and taking a swig.

"So how are the sleeping arrangements going?" She asked looking over at Tyler and Hayden as he shrugged.

"Well, Hayden's got an extra bed so Mikey will probably want to sleep with his boyfriend."

"Oh, you got that right baby." Mikey said sipping his beer and winking at Hayden as Riley giggled, her body relaxed into the side of Mikey's as his long, lean arm draped over the back of the bench.

"Leo is with Willow, that's obvious. Uh, there is the couch and the guest room, I have that air mattress. If it were warming we could get out the tents."

"Yeah too bad for not having tents." Riley said her eyes slowly moving to Mikey as she looked away quickly before he could noticed and sipped her wine.

"Grandma and Grandpa have the basement, so we can't use that bed…" He sighed. "I don't know, maybe we don't sleep?" He shrugged as he turned and looked at Raph who made his way back to his seat.

He stopped in front of it staring down at Felicia as she smiled up at him. "You're in my seat." He smirked as she nodded.

"Mine was taken." She said pointing towards Riley and Mikey. He nodded and picked her up from it. She let out a small squeak as Raph set himself down on the chair and placed her on his lap.

"You could have just asked." She grumbled, tugging her sweater around her body tighter as Raph smiled, leaning over the side of the chair to grab his beer he left there.

"Yeah but, where's the fun in that? And, I would have missed out on the noise you made." He smiled, whispering the last part and leaning his face closer to hers. She felt it go hot and flush all over again as her heart rammed against her ribcage.

"I'm gonna head in." Tyler said sitting up and stretching. "I'll put out the extra blankets and pillows and leave 'em in the living room. You guys can fight amongst yourselves."

"Sounds good." Raph said still looking up at Felicia as she smiled, starting to feel all the alcohol from today wear down on her nervousness.

"Maybe we should go in too? You have a big day of dealing with Italians tomorrow." She said mimicking his words from earlier as his smile widened.

"If you wanna." He shrugged as she got off his lap. Hayden stood at the same time with a stretch and winked at Felicia.

"Night love birds." He called as he jogged up the porch steps. Felicia rolled her eyes as Raph took his beer and waited for her to go first.

Inside the house it was quiet and she could almost hear Raphael's breath behind her as she slipped off her flats and put them with everyone else's shoes. She looked over her shoulder at him as he shrugged out of his leather jacket, hanging it on the back of the kitchen chair.

"So, our best bet would be the guest room." She shrugged. "We called it first." He smiled at her and nodded, motioning for her to lead the way. She started to feel the nervous feeling gnawing at her stomach again, but shoved it down with another swig of beer.

The guest room was between Willow and her parent's bedroom. Opening to door to the dark room, Felicia flicked on the lights and smiled at the inviting bed. It was big enough for the both of them and all she could concentrate on right now was the fact that his hand landed on her hip as his body pressed up from behind hers.

He leaned over, looking around the room before giving her a gentle push to go inside. She took a step and then another as she heard the soft click of the door behind her. Her hands went through her hair before she turned around and smiled up at him. He didn't smile back and the butterfly, gnawing feeling was back.

He slowly made his way closer to her, sickeningly slowly as her hands clenched and unclenched in fists at her sides. Her heard started to beat faster as his body finally made contact, brushing softly against her. He lifted his hand, cupping her cheek in it as his thumb slowly ran over her soft skin.

"I think I've wanted to do this since I saw you on that fuckin' roof top." He whispered, his voice a thick husk as she felt her knees tremble. He leaned in and finally, no more interruptions, no more guessing or games. His lips pressed on hers and she reached up to his large arms, gripping her hands into his taunt skin. Her legs gave out and she felt his other hand move behind her to the small of her back to keep her body pressed tightly to his.

He pulled back slowly, taking her bottom lip with him between his lips as he went and finally opened his eyes. She kept her close for a moment longer before letting them flutter open, looking up at him.

"We have a long day tomorrow." He smirked as she nodded slowly, trying to figure out any coherent thought that was going through her mind right now. She found none. All she found was images of him throwing her against that bed and ripping her clothes off. Her hands searching his board, chest and tight abs, down his strong, muscular back and… "Night." He said before turning away. Her mind was too slow for her body as it reacted, reaching up for his arm.

"Wait, what?" She asked as he smirked.

"I was gonna go sleep on the couch." He said pointing his thumb behind him as she sighed.

"No. You're sleeping in here." She said pointing towards the bed.

"You want that?"

"Yes." She said almost too quickly as he chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.

"Alright. I need to go to the bathroom, and you can get ready for bed." He said as she nodded and watched him walk towards the door and close it.

She quickly ripped off her sweater and pants, unclasping her bra from her back and pulling it out of the tank top and placing it on the other pile of clothing. She smiled as she climbed into the cold bed, thinking of his reaction as he walked into the room to her nearly naked.

She was still wearing her underwear and tank top but still, it was less clothing than he had ever seen her in. Maybe he would follow suit and take off everything down to his boxers. She felt a familiar twist in her stomach that shot down to her legs at the image of him undressing in front of her.

Finally the door opened and she felt a frown on her face as he came into the room still wearing his shirt, but had only boxers on. His jeans made a soft clank with his belt as he placed them on a chair near the door and walked over to the bed. He pulled the sheets back and noticed the soft cream color of Felicia's legs tucked away under them.

Without a moment to filter through his thoughts he reached out and ran the back of his hand over her thigh and down to her knee. Goose bumps appeared in the wake of his touch as he smirked and climbed into the bed.

"Night." He said again with a smile laying on his back and placing his arm behind his head. She laid down next, feeling the warmth radiate off his body as she shuttered to her side covered in coldness. She hesitated for only a moment before turning on her side and tucking her head under his chin and draping her arm over his chest.

"Night." She said happily, with a large smile as she finally drifted to sleep.
