Love Is In The Airbender

A Night Under The Stars

Chapter 20

(This isn't exactly the picture I had in my head.. But the bottom of the roof is sort of right! Just imagine four large pillars in the corners of the square, with moss and plants hanging down with Christmas stringy lights onto the poles.. Excuse the other roofs in the background!)
~Enjoy the rest of the chapter!

Slowly and hesitantly I locked my hand with hers
"Kitara.." I muttered, unsure if I still put my full trust into her yet.
She giggled
"I know, Leo was telling me about you.. and how you have this special effect on Raph." I tensed up, my face a deep crimson.
"What? What do you mean I--" she covered my mouth with her hand.
Now she was making me frustrated..
She smiled shaking her head
"Don't be silly, you know what I'm talking about! Now, why don't we watch some tv!" She exclaimed, furrowing my eyebrows together she removed her hand from my mouth and sat down beside Leonardo.
I sighed, frowning in confusing I pulled my legs closer towards my chest and kept close attention onto the television.
"Psssttt...!" A voice whispered nudging me softly.
I held back the smirk that wanted to play across my lips, and ignored them simply
"Pssssssstt!" They whispered back starting to get slightly louder, giggling softly I turned to look at my culprit, Raphael.
"Yes Raph, what would you like?" I whispered back smiling.
He rolled his eyes
"Let's get out of here.. It Uh... I want to show you something.." He muttered blushing slightly.
My smiled got larger, nodding I slowly got up without the other four noticing, as Raphael followed behind me quickly.
I slipped between the bars to exit and we walked off along the abandon sewer paths.
"So, what's this special thing you needed to show me, Raphael?" I asked fully curious and eager at this point.
He smiled and let out a laugh
"Well aren't we excited?" He said simply, not letting out a single hint.

•••••••
"PLEASE"
"Nope."
"PLEEASE!"
"Noooooope."
I groaned loudly
"Come on raph! I hate it when people do this, ugh! It's so annoying!" I grumbled, crossing my arm over my chest and made a pouty face, he laughed.
"Well, don't get your hopes up Kitten, Cus I'm not telling you anything.. Not yet at least." I groaned again, muttering words under my breath making him laugh again.

•••
"Well, up we go.." Raph muttered, climbing up the ladder.
I looked up at the ladder in slight hesitation.
"Uhhh, isn't there like.. Another way up? O-or something?" I stammered blushing nervously, Raph laughed from up the tube
"Nope, sorry kitten. Ain't another way up unless we go back and use the shellraisers path.." He called back, I heard a sound of metal going against concrete, frowning I spoke again
"Well we can, umm.. Go back! Come on Raph lets go!" I exclaimed whirling around I started to walk again, but soon I was pulled back by my waist
"Nope, let's go." Raph's voice whispered in my ear as he picked my up, holding me close while using his other hand to climb.
I squealed, burying my face into his neck, my arms wrapping around his upper plastron while my legs hugged his waist
"God damn, we had to go up this way.." I mumbled into his neck making him laugh slightly
"Sorry kitten, fastest way.."
I rolled my closed eyes
"Yeah yeah.. Climb faster.." I grumbled as he laughed again
"Alrighty."
1...
2...
3...
"Alright, your good." Raph said as he climbed up fully onto the concrete, pushed the cover back onto the hole and started to walk again.
"Umm.. Raph?" I asked opening my eyes so I could look at him again
"Yep?" He responded casually like nothing is happening, I rolled my eyes smiling softly
"You know, I can walk.. Right?"
He smirked, giving me a small nod
"Yep."
I sighed, rolling my eyes "I see."
"I'm glad, or else you couldn't see this awesome thing I'm about to show you soon." I laughed, and soon he joined in
"Ha. Ha ha. Very cleaver Raphie."
I said poking his cheeks, making them heat up.
"I try." He said simply, his walking turned into a run as we leaped from rooftop to rooftop, well he was, since he was carrying me..
Soon enough Raph set me down, slipped his bandana from his eyes, and tied it around my eyes so the holes weren't on my eyes.
"Raph, what are you doing.." I asked feeling around from the loss of sight.
"I feel like I'm blind.. Raph? R-Raph.. Come on.. This isint cool!" I shrieked, swatting the air to find Atleast something.
Absolutely nothing made a sound around me, he was gone.. Just like that.. I felt something grab my hand, and I screamed.
A sudden wave of laughter went around me
"Hey hey, kitten it's just me.. I had to do something real quickly, and well.. You weren't allowed to see!" Raph's voice soon calmed my scared body
"Bloody hell raph, what the hell! You scared the crap out of me.. That's not even cool.." I grumbled lacing my fingers with his.
Raph chuckled, gently kissing his lips on my forehead for a second, before pulling away
"Sorry sorry, my surprise will make up for it though.."
