Up on the roof.

[mnt_raph]

*There is a faint muffled scream from inside the tent on the roof. So faint, in fact, that it remains safely contained between the walls of the tent that dreams of being a studio apartment. It's for the best really. He's trying very very hard not to listen in on the conversation happening just outside his door, but it's not easy.

Raph takes the pillow off his face, and replaces it where....well where she should be. It feels like ages since he's seen her. He's never sure when she'll find her way back to him, but just to be safe, he leaves open one side of the bed.

Milliways living has softened him, and he knows it. He used to be able to sleep through just about anything, but now even the hushed tones of the other people on the roof are keeping him up. He reaches back into one of the storage portions in the headboard and retrieves a once waterlogged and battered walkman. He checks the tape, Soundgarden Superunknown. Turning the volume all the way up, he puts on the headphones, and rolls over onto his side.
Snuggled comfortably under the Ninja Blanket from Del, he finally falls asleep.*

Somewhere in the deep stretches of the night, he might feel a momentary shift in the weight on the bed, and a breath like the faintest breeze of indian summer on his throat.

He might. Or he might not.
