My Life Turned Red

Turtle Out of the Bag

Lillie's POV:
       Raph and I had been dating for four months now, knowing each other for about six. We had been meeting up most weekends, with school and his patrol, it was difficult but we made it work.
       It was Friday and we planned to go on a walk around 10:30.
Leo's POV:
       I was sitting in the dojo, trying to clear my head through meditation. Raph had been acting weird the past few months, going out late for "fresh air", on his phone more, reading books, that seemed to be in good condition that would disappear after a few weeks to be replaced by another.
      I herd a door open and quietly, I got up and poked my head out. I carefully watched Raph creep his way to the exit.
       I wait a few seconds before following him. "What ya doing Leo?" Mikey asked, coming up behind me, I jumped. "Going to follow Raph." I say.
"Cool, I'll get D." He then skipped off to Donnie's lab.
       A few minutes later we were on Raph's trail, he was leaving the city.
"What's he doing out here?" Donnie asks quietly.
"No clue." I say, Raph wasn't social so I doubt it would be a friend.
"Maybe it's something embarrassing." Mikey's eyes grew big with his thought.
"Whatever it is, he doesn't want us to know." I reply and we keep following.
       We enter a forest, Raph skillfully moves through them, as if he was done it a hundred times. The boys and I struggled to keep silent, having to pause whenever one of us (Mikey) made a sound that made Raph suspicious.
       Eventually the forest opened to a field, we could see a small house on the other side. Raph climbed up to the roof.
       "Okay, enough of this." I say and we walk towards the house, climbing to the roof to join Raph.
"Raph! What are you doing here?" I ask. Raph nearly jumps out of his shell.
"What is wrong with, you? Can't I just take a stroll?"
"No, Raph, because that is completely out of character for you!" Donnie says.
"Didn't know you had a plot line of my actions." Raph shortly states.
"Oo, does Raphie have a girlfriend?" Mikey asks eye brows raised. I swear I see Raph blush.
"Mikey, I'll-" Raphs cut off by the sound of a window opening.
"Hey Raph, hows-" a girl appears, she looks about 15, with shoulder blade length red-brown hair, tan skin and dark, almond shaped eyes. She was pretty.
"Okay." She said looking uncomfortable as my brothers and I stared at her.
Lillie's POV:
       I herd shuffling on my roof and climbed out my window, believing it was Raph. I get up and see three taller turtles next to Raph.
       "Okay." I say, they all stare at me.
"Oh, giant turtles no way!" I say with my best acting skills which were terrible. They were obviously not buying it anyways.
"Well I'm Lillie Nelson, and I'm Raph's gir..." Raph shakes his head rapidly behind his brothers. "acquaintance." I finished, Raph face palms.
"Okay, Miss, I'm Leo, this is Donnie and Mikey. Not to be rude but we have to go," the turtle with he blue mask said, (Raph never mentioned their mask colors), "and Raph is coming with us." Leo finished the last part in Raph's face.
"Are you and Raph like boyfriend and girlfriend?" Mikey asked, Raph growled.
"Come on Mikey!" Leo shouted as they left, leaving Raph and me.
"Acquaintances?" He asked skeptically.
"Well..."
"Raph come on!" Leo shouted.
"You better go." I say, he nods
"Wish me luck, I'll text ya when I get a chance." He gives me a peck on the lips before joining his brothers.
I watch him go before going back to my room, hoping that Raph isn't chewed up too badly, as I would still like my boyfriend afterwards.
