Falling for the Bad Boy :TMNT

Chapter 5

Raph POV

"Skylar. I need you to understand something. I, or any of the other boys, will NEVER hurt you. Ever." I said, looking into her perfect hazel eyes.

She looked back at her feet. I bent over slightly to see her face and felt bad instantly.

"Oh god, please don't cry." I said, worry in my voice. She looked up and smiled. "I won't." She said quietly, still smiling.

"Now, please don't tell anyone about all this mushy gushy stuff. I normally don't do mushy gushy." I said. She laughed and pretended to zip her lips. "My lips are sealed." She said, laughing again.

"Now, what would you like to do?" I asked. She shrugged and looked at the floor again.

"Girl, you need to get out more." I said. She loomed up at me and smiled sadly. "I never go out really. My 'best friend' Veronica drags me to some stuff but I don't participate." She said softly. "Well, what do you and Veronica talk about. Do you guys like hang out and have sleepovers and other..girl-ish stuff?" I asked. She shook her head. "And we don't really talk. She talks non-stop though." She said. "Well, that doesn't sound like a best friend to me." I said. Me and Casey's friendship wasn't at all like that.

"Yeah well. That sucks. I can't just get rid of her. That's not possible." She said. "I bet you could do it." I said she shook her head and was back to looking at the floor.

"I'm back." Casey yelled as he entered the lair. He set the pizza's down and opened a bow. "Come on, eat." I said. Me and Casey both grabbed a piece and started eating. Skylar grabbed a small piece and took a couple small bites of it. She laid it down half eaten on the lid of the box and stood. "I'm not hungry." She said.

She stood and left the room. She walked to my room and quietly closed the door. "Well then. Do you think something's wrong?" Casey asked. "I don't know. I'm think that she wants to be alone right now though."
