Sleeping With The Enemy: A TMNT Fanfiction

Caught in The Act

Mona and Dakota stood face to face on the top of the Stark Enterprises Building. Mona's eyes were dark, and mascara stained her rosy cheeks.
'You ruined everything. Everything.' She snarled her voice gloomy.
Dakota swallowed hard, taking a step away from her.
'You just don't know when to quite. You know what everyone is gonna say about you?'
Dakota shook her head violently, taking another step back when Mona came closer to her.
'Well stuff like; slut.' She moved in slowly, and Dakota moved further away, closer and closer, to the edge.
'Skank. Whore. Bitch. Backstabber. Desperate.'
Every word stabbed at Dakota's chest. Hard. She looked over her shoulder, to find herself less than inch keep from falling off the building.
Mona's pupils had dispersed, her eyes going pure black.
'Now, I want you to know the physical side of how you feel. Falling from cloud nine, not a care in the world, then SPLAT. You hit the cold, cold ground known as realiry. Have fun.' Mona pushed Dakota back, and watched her fall down the three storey building. Dakota opened her mouth to scream, but no sound came out. She didn't crash anyway, just kept falling. She noticed a hand being offered to her. Raph's. She reached out desperately, nothing circling her mind apart from the thought of hope. They fingertips brushed against each other for just a second, then his hand dissapeared. It was just an illusion. She was never going to reach a dead end. No helping hand. No shortcuts. Just free falling.
Dakota sat up in horror, and realised she was on a bed, no endless black hole or anything. Her PJ's hung to her body, as they were sticky with sweat. She cupped her head in her hands, her mind overwhelmed with feelings. She got up, taking deep breaths as she reached her phone. She searched frantically for Mona and Raph's contacts, then sent her a text:
come round mine. need to talk ASAP
She then checked the time on her phone, in relief to find out it was on 9:21. She couldn't go another day keeping this to herself, and she definitely needed to tell Mona before she left for Cali. She dropped the phone onto the bed and made her way into the kitchen. She grabbed a bottle of water, prying the cap off and throwing it at the other end of the room. When she finished the water, she stared at the liquor cabinet at the corner of the kitchen.
'Not today.'

Mikey and Raph were sitting barely a foot away from the TV screen. Everyone else went to bed, but those two stayed up all night playing GTA V.
'Stop driving the car into buildings! The police will chase you down!' Mikey screamed at him.
'Piss off would ya. I know what I'm doing.' He scoffed, nudging him on the shoulder. Raph heard his T-phone go off behind him, and looked at it suspiciously.
'Here.' He handed Mikey the controller, moving away from the TV. He looked at the message, pulling a funny face at the phone screen.
'Erm, Mikey, I need to go somewhere. Don't mention this to Leo.' His voice was dark and intimidating, but this didn't bother Mikey at all.
'Whatever.'

'Swear to god, Harry Underwood has to be the creepiest guy I've known, and that's saying something.' Casey snorted, laughing at his own comment, April and Mona alongside him. They had been skyping for the past 3 hours.
'Whatever, Dee probably liked the attention anyway.' April said, looking around innocently.
'Don't be like that O'neil.' Casey argued.
'How many times do I have to tell you I don't exactly like being referred to by O'neil?' April snapped, but in a jokey manner.
Casey chuckled.
'Alright.'
'You two are too cute. Looks like Raph and I need to step up our game.'
Casey and April fell silent for a minute.
Mona raised her eyebrows, swinging her legs in the air behind her.
'Sup with you guys?'
April sighed, shaking her head.
'There's something we've got to tell you.'
'K. Shoot.' Mona waited patiently, but then her phone vibrated in her pocket.
'One sec.' She read through the text, before turning her attention to Casey and April.
'Can it wait till tomorrow? Dakota needs me round hers.'
This made Casey suspicious.
Good thing April was cut off.
April, smiled, but was gritting her teeth at the back of her head.
'Don't even worry about it anymore.'
Mona blew her friends kisses before disconnecting and getting ready to leave.

Raph knocked on Dee's living room window, standing on the balcony. Dee opened up for him,gesturing for him to come inside. She didn't look or converse with him, she needed to, but didn't want to.
'So, why am I here? Not that I don't like spending time with you.' He commented smirking. Dakota gritted her teeth, making a sharp turn.
'Don't even start. We just need to clear the air.' She answered, her voice deadly serious.
Raph chuckled in disbelief.
'Didn't we already so that?' He argued, scratching the back of his neck.
Dakota stared at him sternly, and he exhaled slowly lifting his head backwards.
'You know what? I just can't carry on with this. I thought I loved Mona, but then after every thing that happened, I just, don't even know. I just tried to forget everything between us, but then, I mean, every time we just happened to be in the same room I just want to, want to...'
'Want to what?!' Dakota exclaimed in impatience. She probably knew what, but would rather have Raph tell her. He leaned an kissed her softly. Well. She did just want him to tell her. But I guess a demonstration would be okay. Dakota stood there for a while, not sure how to react to this. Eventually she kissed him back, harder, resting her palms on his chest. She was oblivious of the fact Mona could be here at any moment, because she was trapped in this one. All this time she wanted Raph to just be able to confess how he felt towards her, and he finally did. Finally. When they first met, when she was conscious, they instantly clicked. They had such an admirable bond, but then so did he and Mona. You know how the rest of this story goes. Then there was a slam at the door.
'Wow, hope I'm not interrupting anything.'
