We stood there for a long time, neither of us giving any indication of moving, so when she pulled away with such a swift, sudden movement, I jumped a little.
"Damn Don! You're a ninja for goddamn sake! Pull yourself together!" This little voice yells in the back of my head. No! Not again! Not now!
"Shut up already!" I whisper-yell at it, causing the girl make a grunting noise in confusion.
"Excuse me? I didn't say anything, so who are you talking to?" Her quiet voice turning a bit snarky, and getting a little louder with each word that passed by her lips. I don't mind, I'm used to it. On her it looked adorable. She took a step back and wrapped her small arms around her sides. God, I want to just hold her again, but I don't want to scare her off.
"N-Nothing..." I say quietly, then I panic and correct myself. "I-I mean no one!! I'm talking to no one!"
"OK... " She says, sounding unsure. I bet she thinks I'm some weirdo now. Damn.
"Ummm, so... Would you mind telling me your name?" I ask, trying to break the unbearable silence that had fell between us like a gigantic brick. "If you want to I mean.."
She looks around at anywhere but me for a couple minutes, like she was trying to decide if I was worthy enough to trust. I just stand there and wait patiently, because after what just happened I don't blame her for not wanting to talk to anybody. Finally she looks away and mutters, "Minorin. My name is Mirorin, but I go by Shamira. What's yours?"
"Donnie. Well actually its Donnatello, but everyone calls me Donnie so that what i go by. And then ther-"
"OK. Shut up please, I got it. Your name may be Donatello, but I'm gonna be calling you... ummm... Monnie? No. Shammatello? No. How about Shannie?"
"B-B-but why c-can't you just call me Do-"
"Shannie it is!"
I watch as she comes closer and wraps her thin arms around me again, pulling me once again into a warm embrace. I went completely still and just watched as her delicate arms pulled me into another tight hug. I never get hugs anymore, not after what happened to Raph. I wish we could stay like this forever.
I shake my head, trying to clear my thoughts and get back to reality. It finally works after a few shakes. "OK, but you know this means I'm gonna be calling you Mini from now on, right?"
".....Fiiinnneeee... but I'm not that short you know."
"You are to me."
"Ugh, I'm just vertically challenged that's all."
"If you say so..."
"Hey, you're a giant! You're tall compared to anybody!"
"You're just saying that because you're short..."
"OK, enough of this. Can I see what my superhero looks like already? I'm sorry I'm being so blunt, but it's really been bothering me."
"I-I don't know... Can you promise not to leave if I do? ...Everyone else always does..."
"I promise. I will never leave you, not matter what happens from here on. I'm gonna be stuck to you like we're superglued together."
"OK..."
I move her small arms to the side, and step out of our embrace. Slowly, I move to a thin strip of moonlight that's shining in from the broken window we crashed through. The silence that fell in the room was really uncomfortable to me, so I was about to leave when I heard...
"...Oh. My. Gods."
