(Note, I scrapped pretty much 80% of the past chapters Angel and just went for a little kid. 6 years old!)
Casey slept with Donnie on the couch, mainly because Casey wouldn't let go of Donatello since yesterday. Angel and April slept in sleeping bags in her room, calling it a girls night. Donnie sighed, his hand gently on Casey's chest as Casey had his arm wrapped around Donnie's waist.
"I texted Raph, he should be here any minute. Should we maybe get up?" Donatello asked, looking up at Casey. Jones groaned, but sat up.
"I guess.."
Raph tapped on the door, and Casey stood up and opened the door.
"Special delivery for a special friend of mine!" Raph said, a big smile on his face. Casey chuckled and hugged him tightly.
"You're amazing."
"I try to be for you." Raph chuckled, and dropped the bags by the door.
Angel heard Raph's voice and immediately slammed Aprils door open, running over to Raphael.
"Raphyy!!" She yelled, laughing as she hugged him. Casey let go and took a step back, laughing as he took the bags and put then on the living room table.
"She knows about Raph?" Donnie asked, and Casey nodded. Donatello sighed, taking off the hood of the hoodie. "That's good to hear."
"You aren't mad?"
"Nope, mi amor."
Donnie winked, teasing Jones because of what he said yesterday night.
"Shut it." He laughed and looked down, sitting back down on the couch. Raph sat down in a chair and looked over at them, his smile softening a bit. Looking more forced emotionally. But quickly he switched his gaze to the tv, flipping through different channels.
"My dad shouldn't be too concerned with me having Angel. As long as people don't know she's gone he's getting child support and shit. Even if people noticed he'd probably say she's out with April cause she babysits her almost like.. All the time pretty much. Or Angel is having a sleepover, with her mother, or on some sorta brother-sister trip with me." Casey started, listing examples off the top of his head. "Unless he wanted pay back for me being a pain in his ass all these years or for taking his truck, which I still should return to him."
"Why return it?" Raph asked, turning the tv off.
"I can't live a life of crime, ese. That would make me no better than the people we fight." Jones sighed and buried his face in his hands, his elbows resting on his knees. He lifted his head a bit, pulling his eyelids down a bit with a loud groan before he stood up again.
"Amigo, you worry too much. Hai?" Raph stood up as well and bumped Casey's shoulder.
"Hai is Japanese." Jones laughed.
"Oh? So what's yes in Spanish?"
"You know Japanese, you should know it isn't the same as Spanish for crying out loud hermano. Sí is yes in Spanish!" Casey wrapped an arm around Raphs shoulder and laughed.
"I'll return the car for you." Raph offered, holding his hand out for Casey who unwrapped his arm from around the turtle.
"I can't ask you to do that. You've already brought all the bags here."
"Call it a birthday gift, amigo." Raph winked, and that made Casey smile lightly.
"Still no, strawberry boy." Casey booped Raphs snout with his pointer finger, and Raphael snorted, causing Casey to break out into an uncontrollable laughter as well.
[Three months later]
"Casey?" Angel tugged at Jones sleeve, and the adult boy looked down at her.
"What's up lil demon?" He smiled softly and put a hand on her head, messing her hair up a little.
"Can we visit hermana again?" She asked, now holding onto his hoodie as tightly as she could and looking up at him with big puppy eyes.
"I can ask." He laughed, and pulled out his
T-Phone.
"Are you going to visit, too, this time?"
"I don't know. I still have work today and I have no clue how long my boss has put me in for yet."
