Once I got to my girlfriend's house I stopped, then turned to the rest of my family. "She lives here, just downstairs." I stated, in a low but firm voice, my family had been badgering me and practically forced me to reveal where I went after patrols, in secret, or before or after practice, who I talked to on the phone and secretly texted at home. I was practically forced to tell, I've never handled the pressure well when the whole family is against me. "She's used to taking a shower, so we might have to wait. I'll let her know first and then we'll let you in." I stated when Mikey spoke up. "Why do you have to tell her about us? Did you hide our existence from her like you hid hers from us?" Mikey asks with his blue eyes growing huge. "No. She knows you exist. But the Foot Clan seems interested in the neighborhood, so she's a little paranoid, that's all." I said looking at them all one by one, I have no problem with my father and Donnie, I know they will respect my girlfriend's rules, but I can't say the same about Raphael and Michelangelo. "That's her house, and the rules are hers, respect them please, she's tough, she has no problem throwing you all out. And I would like to avoid that since you asked to meet her." I said, once I got a nod from everyone, I turned and knocked on the window, waiting for my girlfriend, the only human I would give up everything for, to open the window for me.
