Chapter 2: My Own Family and The New Nursery
Michelangelo sighed as he entered his own apartment, next door to Raph and Leo's. Mikey's apartment was full of weeks old dirty laundry, half eaten food and empty pizza boxes.
Mikey sighed as he sat down on his sofa.
He really was happy for Leo and Raph. But deep down he really wanted a family of his own. He wanted to have the laughter of little kids ring through the empty air of his lonely apartment and to have the love of a true mate in his heart.
Mikey sighed once again.
He knew deep down that he would never have those feelings and all he could do was watch as Raph and Leo and countless other people enjoyed that happiness and dream that he could be that happy.
The orange masked turtle suddenly jumped when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"It's open." He called, the door opened and Raph stepped in. "Hey there bonehead, I'm showing everyone tha new nursery for my kid now that it's done. Wanna come and see?"
Mikey swallowed the lump in his throat and nodded.
Raph smirked and the two headed to his apartment where the others were waiting...
"Now? Can I look now?" Leonardo asked excitedly.
Raphael had covered his mate's azure blue eyes with his hand and was leading him to the nursery he had made, with Donnie's help, for his baby. "Easy babe." Raph chuckled.
"Don't freak out the baby."
"The baby is perfectly fine, it's the freaked out daddy I'm worried about." Leo glared as he moved one of Raph's fingers away from his sapphire eyes. "Ah, ah. No peeking." Raph scowled playfully.
Leo sighed and closed his eyes.
Raph smiled and opened the nursery. "Tadaa! The nursery for the baby." He smiled and Leo opened his eyes to take a look. "Oh wow..." He whispered when he saw the room.
The wall paper was a soft baby blue colour with storks and clouds on every wall.
In the corner by the window was a white crib with a white cushion bedding a fluffy blanket and mobile above it with little white birds hanging off it. Next to the crib was a tiny night-stand made of dark cherry wood with a night-light on it that was navy with sheep, moons and stars on it.
At the other end of the room was a soft rocking chair with a cabinet next to it full a of fresh diapers and bottles.
On top of the cabinet was a diaper changing area. There was a closet full of different baby clothes the colour either white or different shades of light grey. Next to the door was a fan to help keep the nursery cool.
In the another corner of the room was a small bouncer seat that was white with a tint of pink.
Finally, near the bouncer seat was a giant box full of baby toys such as rattles, teddies, things for the baby to sink it's gums into and so on. "I-It's amazing." Leo smiled widely as he walked around the room.
Raphael, Mikey, Donnie and Casey Jones smiled as Leo examined the room for the baby when it arrives.
"Oh Raphie." Leo sniffed as tears of happiness welled up in his eyes. Raph put one hand on Leo's shoulder and the other on his baby bump. "I hope ya like it babe." Raph smiled and pulled his mate into a loving kiss.
The stayed like that for several moments before pulling away for air.
"I love it."...
