Ch. 5

Driving the bike into an alley way then climbed to the top of the roof and found the "side kick," waiting for me. Sitting on the edge was a case of Rockstars and three boxes of pizza.

"Who are you trying to romance Casey?" laughing we clasped our hands together and sat on the edge of the roof letting our legs dangle. Picking up the pack of energy drinks I raised an eye brawl, "No Full Throttle damn dude not even Red Bull?"

"Hey when you buy, that's when you can be picky," he replied taking a gulp. Looking around and behind me Casey gave me a confused tilt of the head.

"Hey no dudet tonight?" Casey asked as sliding his mask on up and grabbing a Rockstar before tossing me one.

"Nah, she's tired from work, and it's a slow night," I commented taking off my helmet letting the radio traffic echo around us. Grabbing a piece of pizza from the closest box near me Casey snapped his fingers as he took a swig of his drink remembering something…which could be hard for him, that bonehead.

"April said she found Leo…"

"What should I care he walked out on us, I really don't care if he comes back," I growled as Casey held my shoulder.

"I know man but maybe she can talk some sense in to him," sighing I shook my head as he had a cheeky smile. "Tell me if this isn't love. Before April left she bought us both front row seats to the Nick's game, how sweet is that?" I smirked at his excitement as I looked across the way seeing Cat walking home. Seeing her skip in her step as she listened to her music on her ipod she jumped on the lamppost and twirls around it and laughed to herself. Shaking out her hair the curls bounced on her shoulders as she shook out her hair sighed before clipping the blush orchid pin on the collar of her leather jacket.

"So new girlfriend?"

"No, that's…you wouldn't believe me," I laughed as he stopped me and pointed.

"Hey I know her she's April's friend, she sees her almost every other day for a massage. Tells me I don't have the hands for it," he laughed as I shook my head. How weird is that, Cat and April knew each other. Then again everything seemed to click some how.

"I know who Cat is," he froze and whipped his head around.

"You better tell me everything".

"She knows about me and my brothers. Funny enough her name is Catherine and just goes by Cat," I laughed remembering the first night we met her. Her fierce glare still sent shivers down my spine.

"So you like her," looking up at him he smirked, "Come on, you think I haven't noticed. Each time she's around us your more protective, get aggravated and cranky come on man, you like her".

"Do not, just don't want to have a little girl crying on my hands is all".

"You're a bad liar, come on Raph tell me this is she hot? You know curvy, a kind of girl you wanna…" growling my blood almost boiled over the edge Casey may be a bone head but not was going tot talk about my girl that way. Smirking as my fists shook Casey held his ground.

"You ever think about touching her I swear I'll…" letting his smirk grow as he looked over at me I thought about what I was doing and looked across the street at her living room window, she was changed in her black tank top and yoga pants and started to stretch. The base from her stereo could be vaguely heard as she and started to dance about with a laughing silly smile.

"Fine she's pretty, but that's all you're getting!"

Taking over the Hamatos' kitchen I shuffled around making four more batches for Master Splinter; Orange Cinnamon, Spearmint, Chamomile and a Mixed Berry Tea to be safe. For his convince I made him homemade tea bags out of cheese cloth. Smiling at my masterpiece I sighed and closed my eyes for a brief moment before someone slammed their fists on the table making me scream and jump back. Feeling my heart in my throat I looked up to see Raph laughing a little too hard.

"RAPHAEL!" I threw my towel at him whom he caught with smirked.

"Done playing house wife and ready for some real fun?" leaning over the table across from him I smirked back.

"Sure thing, though if I win this time your buying dinner," he smirked back and leaned over the table getting in my face. We both stared at one another with the determination to not back down but I was trying to not show my blush. His eyes, those gold eyes with specks of brown and bits of hazel were truly beautiful when they gleamed like that.

"But if I win, then I get one favor," tilting my head I raised my eye brawl confused.

"A favor… wouldn't that girlfriend of yours be jealous?" I teased by using the same thing he always uses on me. This made him give a light chuckle.

"Just as much as that boyfriend of yours".

"Do I always have to remind you that no one can stand all of this awesomeness," I motioned to all of me making him stand up and cross my arms.

"Then we have no problem then, come on," we rushed to the training area as we stretched out. He would always say that, "What would that boyfriend of yours say?" why though? Looking up at him as we stretched out and get warm I kept pondering. I mean it was an inside joke but now it feels like something else. Shaking my head I bowed to him as he did me as we got in our stances.

"Ready doll," he smirked as we started to circle the other.

"Doll? The only delicate doll face is you mean green," this made him chuckle.

"Mean Green, I like it, but flattery wont help you win. Though you don't have to stop," he laughed taking his first swing as I shifted his weight pushing him past me. As he past me I kicked his shell making him stumble forward as he growled at me.

"Come now give me a challenge?" I laughed giving a cocky smile.

"Oh I'd watch it Kitty Cat, might get yourself in trouble, enough to teach you a lesson". Smirking I started my attack. Throwing punches, kicks you name it but he kept that smirk on his face…it was starting to tick me off.

"What you think I'm cute turtle boy?" I smirked as I punched his side as tried to grab me to knee me. I flipped backwards and stood ready again smirking as I tried to keep moving in little hops like boxers would to stay agile.

"Nah, just thinking that apron and you being in the kitchen is where you should be," growling I had it, charging at him I lunged and kicked him across his jaw. Before my food could graze him he blocked and tried to punch my chest. Redirecting his punch he then lunged at me grabbed my waist and before I knew it I was on my back. Holding my arms down I tried to wrap my legs around him but his shell was too big and soon pinned my legs with his knees. Raising my hands above my head I could feel his hot breath on my chest and neck making my face blush hotter than it already was. The smell of our sweat fill the room, feeling his rough hands clasp my wrists to the floor almost started a spark within me. For a moment no one moved or said anything, catching our breath was the main priority as he then smirked down at me.

"Seems you owe me a favor now," he panted as I rolled my eyes frustrated at the fact I left myself open.

"Fine what do you want?"

"I'll tell you when I cash it in."

"Why would you have the need to fight me for a favor?" He leaned up and sat above my hips and shrugged.

"Never know when you might need it, besides," he leaned down and gave a half smile, "Don't know when I might have to steal you from that boyfriend of yours."

"Raph, do you see any other guys occupying my time other than you all?" he shrugged and helped me up and we started to rest of our work out with the weights. Sitting at the weight bench as he spotted me I couldn't help but let this all bother me a bit. Sighing I knew that he wouldn't make me doing anything bad or humiliating. He might tease me but he was never evil like Mikey could be if I'm caught sleeping on the couch. But why would he need to a favor for a rainy day?
