Finding Banshee

Chapter 6.

The long awaited chapter is finally here, I am sorry for taking so long, I'll try and update more often.

Sapphire eyes were the first thing i thought of when I first woke up. Having Raphael on top of me most of the night did that to me. I turned with a smile to watch him sleeping. He looked so peaceful in his sleep. I tried to reach out for his hair but he opened those eyes.

"Watching me sleep are we Amanda?" He said, with a little laugh. He sounded so sexy with his voice hoarse in the morning. "I knew I was beautiful, but you're making me blush."

"Listen to you get cocky."

"I'm only observing." He said, "Oh, and you're coming with me to the gym."

"Gym? Are you kidding me? You are not getting me there, have you seen how skinny I am? I cannot get any skinnier. In fact, I need to get more bodied, so grab me doughnuts on your back, will you?"

"You need to be strong Amy, Banshee is a pretty dangerous guy, you don't want to be a liability do you?"

"No of course not but that is why I have a gun, which by the way I can use pretty well. So no gym for me."

"You're going to the gym even if i have to drag you there. Or carry you over your shoulder Amy."

"You wouldn't dare." I said, half smiling and half knowing that he actually would.

He got up and laughed as he dragged me off the bed and carried me on his shoulder and I screamed and puched his back playfully. In years to come that would be my happiest memory. On Rahael's shoulder naked and being goofy. All my problems forgoten for a second. He smacked my naked bum and I giggled as we walked into the bathroom. Raph placed me on the bathroom counter and I smilled up into his laughing eyes.

"Never dare me Amy. At least not if you don't want to see the outcome. Now get dressed, we'll never make it to the gym if you decide to spend the morning naked."

I kissed him, "God, I hate the gym and on a weekend? "

I complained as I went to get dressed. After wearing a sports bra and yoga pants followed my Nike sneakers, I took my ipod and my earphones and Raph drove us to the gym. I had to renew my membership after we got there and by the time I was getting in, Raph had already began his work out, he had his earphones and was on a treadmill, he hadn't even began to break sweat and he was going pretty fast. Guess I now knew where all that muscle comes from. I got on the treadmill facing his and he smiled a bit and removed one earbud.

I turned on my treadmill but it was at a slow pace and I was more of walking than running or jogging.

"You know that needs to go faster right?" Raph asked, slightly out of breathe but not breaking his speed.

"I agreed to come to the gym but who said I was going to do any exercise at all. All you said is that I need to come, we never agreed on any actual exercise." I said still doing my walk.

He gave me a sly smile and before I even knew what was going on, he'd already pressed the accelerate button on my treadmill. How he'd gotten to my side without falling off remains to be a mystery even my great Nancy Drew like moves cannot help me discover. The unexpected new speed made me fall of the treadmill and everyone was looking at me, most of them barely concealing their laughter.

"You need to be more careful Amanda, exercise was never your thing. I'd hate to see you break one of your pretty bones." Said what was undeniably's Nick's new British accent.

"Did you actually just call my bones pretty?" I laughed, "London's made you a pretty romantinc guy hasn't it?"

"I've always been like this Amy, I only have the accent to match it now."
