Title: Two steps from the blues

Genre: Romance, songfic.

One month from the day I first met you….

"Honestly ,Raph …I really thought this would work out…."

Your promises proved to be untrue…

"Ahh… no offense Leo… "but all a' of us… kind of saw this coming." I mean, it's Karai!" Raph shouted.

Now step by step, I've been a fool, now I'm just two steps from the blues….

"I thought she had changed-for the best I mean… "what went wrong?" I really cared about her…"

The reason we didn't get along, was telegrams, and telephones, one rang bad news….

"She told me she changed- "Leo wake up and smell the blood!" Raph screamed. "Mikey is laying in that room half dead because of you!"

The other only you, that left me two steps from the blues…

"Little brotherI'm so sorry!" Leo thought. "She tricked you! You of all turtles!" Raph sneered, and turned away from the leader.

Here I am, to be loved or be lonely; my heart awaits your call…

"But she… loved….me…- "Leo! No! forget about her!" She never loved you!... "why can't you just get that through ya thick skull!" It's funny I always thought that I would be giving this same lecture to Raph. Leo thought.

I know it's better than to love a long, than never had love at all…

"But Raph—No Leo! "Please!" Just shut up!" Raph shouted, his voice cracking a bit… he was crying… the strongest of all of the brothers… was crying. For Mikey…? For me. Leo inferred.

So darling let's try, to make amends…

"It won't work out!" Raph screamed, tears now rolling down his dark green skin as he ran out of the living room. She still loves me! I know it! Leo screamed in his mind, just as Master Splinter walked in. "My son… "Splinter started. "Sensei… "I understand…" I was careless…" forgetful… "-" No my son!…" Splinter interrupted. "You were in love!" Love can make you do things that you are not used to doing!"And be unaware of things that you would usually be aware of!" I believe that the girl still loves you!" If you think that you can get her back… "you have my blessing… "He stated. "And don't worry, your brothers will come around."

Oh it makes no difference, what you say or do…

The blue banded turtle stood and bowed respectfully to his sensei. "Thank you Sensei!"

I'm so forgiving…. I'm so forgiving… and I can't go on living…

Leo walked out of the living room to his room. He stopped and looked around the room. The walls were plastered with pictures of him and Kari along with his brothers. We all look so happy… even Raph… I want that back! Leo thought. He closed the door behind him and crawled into his bed it was late, and he was tired. He looked on his dresser and saw the picture of Kari alone… smiling. We're going to get that back! He closed his eyes and smiled, knowing it was the truth.

Two steps… from the blues…
