"Oh, man… I got another wet dream again." Mikey said embarrassingly while going to the bathroom and cleaned himself off. This is very weird, he knew this is part of a teenager life but it's odd. He often dreamt of this "friend" he had. He is handsome, muscular and had those wonderful eyes. That friend made love to him in his dream. In his dream, his friend is the Daimyo while he is one of the consorts.
He rubbed his eyes while he was flushing because he remembered it.
This friend he had is one dirty little secret. He doesn't want his two brothers, Donnie and Raph, to think he's gone crazy. That in his 15 year old body, he still have an "imaginary friend".
He is fond of this friend though. He is kind, brave, like a super hero. He is like a big brother to him. If he could remember, this friend stayed with him ever since he is still a tot. At first, he only was making funny faces, playing games and guiding him where to go, even teaching him many things, especially origami. As he grew older, his friend is becoming more "responsive" and starting to talk to him, touching him and the like. It's starting to drive him crazy, as he had to keep this secret and not let his family know.
He yelped when he felt someone pinched his tail. He flushed as he looked around in the bathroom.
"Damn it."
"Good morning, Mikey," Donnie greeted as he is toasting some bread.
"Good morning!" Mikey said as he wore his apron and started to cook some scrambled eggs. He felt a breeze between his legs that made his voice hitched.
"You alright?" Donnie asked worriedly.
"Y-Yeah…" He smiled as he continued to whip the eggs in the hot pan.
"Morning." The red banded turtle grunted as he sat at the table and grabbed his cereal.
"Mikey, what the shell are you doing?"
Mikey kept on lifting the pan off, stirring it for a few minutes then returning again in the stove and stirring it again.
"It's from a cooking video that I watched. For some reason, the chef reminded me of you."
Raph snorted as an answer. He stood up to get some milk.
"Trust me; you're going to like this one." Mikey said.
"Yeah, right."
Raph shouted and a loud BAM is heard.
It seemed the chair is moved, causing Raph to fall down when he is supposed to sit down. The two brothers, who are cooking, laughed heartily, making the older turtle to get pissed.
"Mikey!" he rushed to the small turtle, only to learn someone bonked him on the head.
"Ow! You two are so dead!"
"I didn't do anything, I swear!"
"Quit the excuses!"
"Mikey is right. We didn't do anything."
Raph scoffed and turned around, his anger pitched up and the two brothers checked it up.
His bowl of cereal is spilled.
Mikey got annoyed, he knew who did this.
While Donnie and Raph are bickering, as Donnie is only trying to calm Raph down. They stopped shouting when they heard Mikey shouting.
"Leave Raph alone! I know you wanted to prank him!"
…
"No, he is always like that! I know he also wanted me as a chef!"
…
"Yeah, right, like you know him better."
"Uhh… Mikey?" Donnie asked.
Mikey jerked and looked at his astonished brothers. He grunted when he heard a whisper.
"You finally got busted."
"Mikey, your behavior had been weird these days."
"Yeah, we know you got a few screws on the loose but not this worse."
"Hey!"
"What's wrong, Mikey?"
"It's nothing, Donnie…"
"You're denying me… It's time to let them know…"
"What's the matter, Mikey? Still have imaginary friends?"
"No! I don't have them anymore!"
"Mikey, you're lying…"
"No, I'm not!"
"What is it?"
"I-It's nothing!"
"Mikey, I'm really worried. Let's go to my lab!"
"They will be in shock when they knew who I am."
"You are not like this before! Just shut up!"
"What?"
"Oh, I'm sorry… It's not…"
"Mikey, what did you just said to Donnie?!"
"Raph likes Donnie but he doesn't have the guts to tell him. He's a wimp."
"Raph is not a wimp!"
"What?! That's it! I'm dragging you either to Donnie's lab or the mental institution!"
"Mikey, just tell us what's wrong!"
"You've been ignoring me. Have I done something wrong in our union last night?"
"SHUT UP, LEO! SHUT UP!"
Two widened eyes stared at him after his outburst. The orange banded never got embarrassed in his whole life.
"Guys, I'm so sorry, I-"
"What name did you just said?"
"Uh… Leo… He is… Sort of my friend." He said in shame, revealing his dirty secret he's been keeping for years.
"… Can you describe Leo… to us?" Donnie choked.
"Uhh… He's like us but taller and he is brave and kind… And charming… Sometimes annoying in his own way… And he had a mask too… But it's blue instead."
Mikey got surprised when Donnie started to cry. He got more confused when Donnie was supported by Raph's shoulder.
"Donnie… Are you alright? I'm so sorry…"
"No, Mikey… We should be sorry for not telling the truth."
"About what? Leo? Oh Kami, he is my imaginary friend-"
"Leo is real."
"Donnie… You don't need to pity me for being a childish-"
"Leo is our brother."
Mikey stood up. Did he really hear…? Nonsense?! "… What?!"
"We were originally four brothers. Leo, who wore a blue one, is the eldest."
Mikey's blue eyes widened. All the time, he had another brother?!
"Why did you lie to me? Why you're telling me this now?! You think I'm going crazy, didn't you? Oh! I knew this, you were pranking me, aren't-"
"Leo is our brother, Mikey." Raph said with a serious tone.
"But he died saving the one he loved the most."
"See? I told you they knew me."
Welcome to the P. Leo [Poltergeist Leo] series! It's an sort of AU that Leo died and became a ghost who's been with Mikey ever since he is a kid.
