Chapter 12

Shopping and date night

Raphael was so very happy, he had finally experienced something that wasn't exactly expected. All mattered to him that, he finally got the chance to experience it with April. Hopefully when the right moment arrives, it will be perfect.

Sat in the couch as he fantasied the moment, while watching April walked to him with the tray of delicious fresh fruits and cold lemonade. Placing on the table and taking her seat beside him, wrapping his large muscled arm around her shoulders and gently pulled her close, embracing loving.

"Mm-mm, this is good babe." Raphael commented, looking to her with a smile. April looked back and smiled warmly as she answered. "Thankyou Raphie, you're sweet."

He chuckled, nuzzled his forehead upon hers and churred whilst he rubbed her thigh. "Mm-mm. getting anxious?" she wondered, smirking anxiously. Raph smiled nervously and shrugged his shoulders then replied. "Maybe."

"Can do whatever you want, raphie." She smiled more, winked. He kissed her forehead tenderly and softly sighed. "When you are ready, I will be ready." April nodded, agreeably then she stood up.

"Better do some shopping then. And get some fresh air while we are at it."

Raphael agreed and said. "Let me get my coat to disguise myself, wouldn't want a freaked out mob." April laughed and replied. "No, we wouldn't want that now would we?"

Raphael chuckled and answered quickly, smiling confidently. "Certainly not."

Thirty minutes later…

Draped his large, muscled arm around her waist as she returned her embrace only far as able. Laying her head just slightly under his chest, walking happily together and enjoyed the scenery around them as the snow fell.

Kissed her temple happily, she purred loving. "You're so gentle and sweet, raphie." He chuckled and replied, whispery. "Only when I want to be with you." He winked and April chuckled.

"Maybe we should have a date night?" April wondered, smiling. Raphael looked to her and smiled back as he said.

"Thought we already doing that now?"

"Well, yeah. But we are dating yes. But maybe we should a date night, like maybe tonight?" April replied. Raphael remained silent for a moment and thought on the idea as he memorized and happily gazed upon her.

"What?" she wondered? "Nothing, you're just beautiful." He replied, commenting loving and admiring.

April blushed and smiled more as she pulled him to her and kissed him.

"Well, if we are going to have date night. How about we get the food to make it at home together for tonight?" Raph suggested. April nodded and answered, agreeing. "Let's go."

The lovers, shopped together. Gathering the freshest vegetables to make the best cuisine and dessert for their first official date night.

Meanwhile in the lair, Master splinter trained his other three sons. Mikey still displayed his heartache and confusion to understand, how his older brother could had stolen his angel cakes from him. How can the old rat explain to the orange clad terrapin that even though, in his belief. April was his angel cakes in his eyes but not truly his.

Knowing this would hurt his son even more than already enduring but truth is better than no truth.

"Mikey, my son." Splinter called gently and he walked to him then knelt down as his brothers left the dojo. "Yes sensei." Mikey finally answered.

"Do you wish to talk about it, my son?"

Mikey shook his head then replied. "No, sensei."

"Alright, that is enough training for the day. Go have something to eat and rest."

April's apartment…

The lovers were having a good time together, enjoying making the three course meals together with chocolate coated strawberries and black forest cake. Covered in the flour, and vegetables pieces that they had thrown at each other, giggling then laughing.

"Ok, I give up. You win." April surrendered and raphael smirked victorious.

"Ha-ha. All hail Raphael! Victorious." He laughed then blinked as a celery stick was shoved in his mouth. "Don't push it, raphie." She winked, taking the roast beef out from the oven.

Draping his arms around her waist, making her giggle and nibbled on her neck, as she struggled alittle and laughed. "That tickles!"

"Oh, really? What about here?" he reached down and tickled her thigh. "And here?" then tickled her stomach. April squirmed and laughed.

"Yes! And Yes! Please would you stop tickling me or we wont be eating tonight."

Kissed her shoulder and said. "As you wish, ma'am."

"I aint that old, raph." She replied.

"Oh sorry, no matter what. You're still beautiful." He commented, winking to april trying to get in her good books.

"Behave raph or no special desert later." She teased.
