"Good night..." Raph said rubbing his cheek where she'd kissed him. She shut the door behind her and gone to bed, him just standing there thinking about what she was trying to prove. He shook his head and went to his room. He grabbed Spike and laid down on his bed. "Hey buddy. How's your day been?" He patted his pets head. "Mines been rough." He sighed. "I did somethin' really stupid. What was I thinking? It's not like I like her. And now she thinks she likes me? Why? There's so many humans she's never even met, how could she know if she would like them or not?" He laid his head on his bed in a huff. "Why am I still thinking about this?" He pet Spike one more time before trying to fall asleep.

"Kira, where are you going? Come back." Raph demanded.

"I can't." She replied.

"Why? I can't follow you up there, it's day time." He tried to explain.

"I have to be with someone."

"But what about me? You're just going to leave me?"

"You never really wanted me here anyway." She left the sewer into the bright daylight.

"Wait!" He ran after her, following her to the surface. He looked around at the faces staring at him, pointing, whispering and laughing. "Kira!" He called after her. Running past the citizens of the city he searched for her. He stopped suddenly when he saw her and some boy holding hands. She was laughing, and having a great time with this human. Things only humans can do, because they can be seen by others, they don't have to live in the sewers.

"Ah!" Raph sat up breathing heavily. "Man, that was a bad dream. Or...was it?" He wiped the sweat from his forehead, trying to remember what the dream was about. "I need some water." He mumbled before getting up and heading to the kitchen. He opened his door and saw something moving toward the exit. "Hey, where are you going?" He asked the figure.

"Raph! Damn, you scared me. I'm just..leaving." Kira muttered.

"Yeah but to where?" He asked walking over to the cabinet.

"I don't know."

"Why?" He grabbed a cup and filled it with water from the sink.

"I haven't really looked into where I'd be going next."

"No, why are you leaving?"

"Oh, I just, thought since the Kraang is gone, you wouldn't need me any more."

"Do you..not like it here?" He asked after taking a sip.

"What? No you guys are really great, I just originally planned on leaving, remember? Now that we beat the Kraang, I figured I'd leave."

"So you were just gunna leave? Not even say good bye?"

"I figured it'd be easier this way."

"Easier? We'd have no idea what happened to you, we'd probably panic and think you were kidnapped." He started to get frustrated.

"I left a note. Besides, I meant it'd be easier for me."

"Do you wanna leave?"

"I don't wanna be a burden."

"You're not!" He slammed the cup down.

"It's not up to you, your brothers and your sensai to take care of me. I can take care of myself."

"But you shouldn't have to. When you get up there, where will you go? What will you eat? where will you sleep?"

"I'd make do with what I can find."

"Why won't you just stay?"

"Why do you want me here? I thought you didn't like human girls."

"What? I never said that!" He barked

"You sure made it seem like it." She walked over to the table he was next to and leaned her elbows on it, her hands holding her head under her chin.

"I didn't mean to upset you. I'm just all messed up over that...kiss." He whispered the last word.

"Why? What did it mean to you?" She asked trying to figure him out.

He sighed looking away from her. "I don't know. I just can't believe I did that. I never thought I would. I think I had a dream about you."

"Oh really? And what happened in it?" She smirked.

"Forget I said that. I don't even remember if it was you."

"So are you gunna tell me why you kissed me or not?" She said abruptly.

"You're the least annoying person I've ever met."

"Oh is that the reason? Cause that seems like a very strange reason."

"Fine, you're kinda pretty." He admitted in a mad tone.

She laughed quietly at his compliment. "I'll make you a deal. I'll give you one more kiss and you can decide if you wanna acknowledge it ever happened."

"You still gunna leave?" He raised a brow.

"Do you want me to?"

"Of course not." He whispered as she moved closer to him.

"I'll let you decide if I stay or not." She said just before she wrapped her arms around his neck, closed her eyes and touched her lips against his.

He wrapped his arms around her waist and bent down just slightly to reach hers. He realized this time was much nicer than the first time. He could smell the soap she uses in her hair, and the smooth curves of her hips his arms laid on felt so perfect. Her lips were velvet soft, making him want to stay like this forever. When she pulled away she laid her forehead on his shell by his shoulder and sighed deeply.

"I want you to stay." He said to her, with his arms still wrapped around her waist.

She nodded, not really sure how to feel anymore. She was glad she had kissed him again, she could feel the sparks run down her spine, her heart beat faster, but it would probably never happen again. With his attitude she was lucky he let her get close enough to touch him. She knew he would pick the option to never talk about it ever again, and she had to live with that. It was like receiving something amazing, then having it taken away.

"I guess I'll go back to bed." She whispered.

"Yeah I guess I will too." He removed his hands from her body, instantly wishing he didn't have to. As much as he would never admit it, he liked being that close to her. The embrace made him feel like he could be normal. Find love like his father once did. But he dropped that idea knowing he wouldn't do it again. He followed her to her door and said good night before continuing to his room. There he laid down and stared at the ceiling until sleep finally came.
