Hi everybody Ok, this is my first TMNT story. Leo is my favourite character, so of course, it has to be about him.

And now, without any further talking, have fun with reading and don't forget to leave a review

Leo tried to take a deep breath. Something was wrong. Really wrong. He couldn't feel the air pumping through his lungs and it was suddenly difficult to keep his eyes open. Not to forget the pain of his back.

"Leo?"

He heard a voice. What has happened? Why was he lying on the floor?

"Leo, come on, you gotta open your eyes." Was this Raph? Why did he sound that worried? He never remembered Raph to sound that worried.

"Bro, wake up… Donnie is coming soon, just held on and open your damn eyes!"

"Ouch…" Leo mumbled, and finally, after blinking sometimes, he managed to open his eyes. He saw his red masked brother above him, looking at him with concerned eyes.

"Yeah. 'Ouch' is a really good description of the situation'." Raph said. Leo tried to sit up, but after a coughing fit and another sharp pain, he decided to lie back. Where was he again?

"Raphie… what…" he coughed again. "What has happened?" He closed his eyes again. The pain was not leaving.

"Bro, open your eyes again. Donnie said to keep you awake" Raph replied. He looked at his hurt brother. Damn, this was all his fault. Why did he had to have this damn argument with his brother?

….

Flashback

"Well, come on! Why can't I go outside? Master Splinter wouldn't remark it" Raph said with a rather loud voice to his brother. Leo sighted. The four brothers were in the dojo and Master Splinter had to go to Japan for some days. During his absence, he left it to Leonardo to watch over his other brothers, as always. And as always, Leo and Raph were having an argument.

"Raph, you know as well as I that we're not allowed to go outside. If somebody of us was getting in trouble…"

"Awww… I thought you were 'Fearless'. It's so boring here, and Donnie just remarked that the foot clan showing up more often than usual and committing crimes or so. We should go and kick their asses."

"Well, actually, I just told that my cameras has caught them on the streets more often, not that they did any crimes…" Donnie tried to insert.

"See? So it wouldn't be dangerous at all." Raph tried to convince Leo. Why wouldn't his brother listen to him?

"No Raph. Master Splinter will be back by tomorrow and then we're allowed to go. Just stay here and…"Leo began to explain calmly. Which was really difficult when his brother was arguing like that.

"NO!" Raphael nearly screamed. He was furious now. Leo never allowed him to do something fun, and now he was going to end this.

"Raph, I.."

"Don't try to convince me with some kind of a lame excuse. I'm sick of always having to listen to you." Raph said and looked Leo in his eyes. He pointed a finger at his brother. "You know what, maybe I even hate you!"

With that, the red banged turtle left the 'living room' into his own room and shut its door with a loud bang.

Leo stood there, speechless.

"Leo… Are you okay?" He heard Mikey's soft voice. Michaelangelo had heard a lot of arguments between his two eldest brothers, but it was never that bad. And Leo did never looked so hurt afterwards.

"Huh…What?" Leo blinked, as if he was in a dream. Did his younger brother just told him that he hated him?

And as longer as Leo thought about Raphs arguments… Leo began to think that he was really a bad big brother.

"I asked if you're okay" Mikey replied unsurely. "Maybe I can go and talk with Raph…"

"No!" Leo said with a loud voice, getting nervous. He didn't want his brother to think that he hasn't the courage to bypass this situation on his own.

"I mean.. no, thanks Mikey. I'll talk with him when he comes out of the room." Leo stopped. "when he feels to talk to a person he hates."

"But Leo, you shouldn't…" Donnie begun, but was interrupted.

"I'll go outside. I need some air." Leonardo said.

With that he left the dojo and his brothers. He felt that they won't need him anyway.

End of flashback

….

"I… we had an argument. Do you remember, bro?" Raph hoped that his brother didn't remember. He had said some things to him that he didn't mean and he regretted it instantly after confronting Leo with those words. Why did he always had to be such a hot head?

"Yeah… you… hate me" Leo whispered. Keeping his eyes open was getting more and more difficult, and sleeping seems to be a good solution.

"No! No, I don't hate you… you gotta believe me" Raph said. Where were Donnie and Mikey? Was Leo closing his eyes again?

"Leo! Leo, keep those eyes open, will ya?" Raph shook his brother softly. However, it was too late; his brother had already closed his eyes.

Hehe, cliff hanger here; well, how do you like the story so far? I'm a hurt/comfort fan, I hope that the story will catch up this genre. Oh, I forget to tell you, my mother language is not English, so please just read over those stupid grammar or vocabulary I might make (or already made). Don't forget to review
