“You don’t hafta do this ya know.” Raph had brought the office chair out to the living room and was sitting in it in the cool guy way as the girls got Kylee ready in her room, the cat came and rubbed up against Raphs leg, but the turtle just pushed him away with his foot. Raph wasn’t exactly in a cuddly mood.

“Yes I do Raph, I gotta prove to this guy why I go on dates with the misfits.”

“I thought you dated them because you were a misfit once.”

The girls said from the room.

“When did you even start dating?!”

“Twenty. I’ve dated random guys for five years, they’re usually only a one dater though,  two if he gets lucky, they just don’t impress me enough.”

“Cuz they’re the wrong guy.”

“Becca, do me a favor; shut up and zip me up”

Raph just sat scowling, gripping the chair like a throat. Why’m I so bothered about this? It’s just that I don’t trust this Hawkins guy right? Why do I care if she’s been dating guys? Raph head popped as the girls scurried out, but before he could get a good look Becca pushed Kylee into the bathroom, saying; “No peaksies yet Raphie boy, she’s not done yet!” Kylee cried out for help but the door was already shut.

Raph started to spin one eighties in the chair, trying to keep his mind off whatever answer came to him. He kept hearing Kylee’s complaints and cries of protest and one word came to mind Makeup. The kid always hated that stuff, avoids it like crazy. Whys Becca putting it on her?

“I’M NOT YER DOLL!”

“QUIT MOVING YER GONNA MAKE ME MESS UP YER MASCARA!”

Mikey laughed out of nowhere, surprising Raph.

“Those two are at it again huh?” he said sitting on the couch, Raph glared at him. “How long you been here?!”

“Oh a couple minutes, watching you think about yer jealousy.  Kylee’s going on a date and Raphie don’t like it.”

“Mike it ain’t like that. I was just thinkin’ was all.”

“that’s why you keep trying to talk Kylee out of this?”

“I just don’t trust the guy is all, we just met him and she’s already goin’ on a date?”

“Love works in mysterious ways big brother. This could be the guy Kylee ends up growing old with.”

Raph looked a little disgusted with a mixture of frustration, making Mikey giggle. “If that happens then it happens. I’m sure she’ll be very happy with the creep.”

“You guys are already marrying me off? Seriously? It’s just a date guys, a date to win a bet.”

Mikey and Raph stopped bickering and looked toward Kylee, who looked seriously grumpy. Becca was standing by her masterpiece happily, making a peace sign and sticking out her tongue slightly. Kylee was wearing a black dress that went to the knees, with a black belt and silver buckle. Her nails were painted deep red (though Kylee would have preferred purple), her hair was up in a curly pony tail with two strands of hair, one on each side, hanging down by her ears, and Kylee was wearing her new pair of black boots .

Raphs jaw dropped, Mikey clapped his hands together and sighed, Raph was twitching and Mikey was dancing, Raph let out a growl and Mikey gave out a giggle and went to Kylee’s side. “Why are you dressed like that?!” Raph spat, leaning on the couch. Becca and Mikey giggled more

“It’s a date doofus. I’m supposed to dress up, like I do for all my other dates. But for some reason Becca decided that I should look extravagant and you know there’s no fighting  her when it comes to this kinda stuff.”
