Chapter 9
Leonardo Does Laundry?
It is now the oldest brothers turn with a chore. His duty for today… laundry. An easy task you say? Let us not forget what poor Donatello went through with the chickens; comical as it was. So, let us go back to the house, where we find Brissen giving Leo instructions on doing laundry.
"Well Leonardo, you ready for all of this?" Pointing down at five big piles of clothing, sheets and blankets, Brissen smiled at the oldest turtle. "It just looks intimidating, but once you dive into it, things start going more quickly, I promise."
Looking over the items of clothing, Leo shook his head, "Are you sure? It looks like quite a bit."
"You will be fine hun. Let's get started, alright."
Nodding, Leo was up for the challenge. "So, what's first?"
"Ok, we need to sort all of it before starting to wash. One pile will be for dark clothes, one for light colored ones, and another for whites. Then sheets are separate, as are the blankets. Got all of that so far?"
"Got it… I think." He had no idea that so much went into it, and this was even b before the washer started running! However, he knew Brissen would be here to help him out at the beginning of it. "Let's dive in!"
Sorting it out went quickly; however, the actual washing, drying and folding would take time. Rosie chose Leo for this task mainly b because he had the most patience.
Laundry sorted at last, the beginning part of it could finally start. Showing Leo how the washer and dryer worked, Brissen was confident he could remember the instructions for it. However, the adding of detergent, fabric softener, bleach and stain remover: and what went on what, proved a tiny bit more difficult.
"Can we write this down Brissen, I don't want to mess this up." Leonardo knew when things got too much to remember, write it down. Brissen smiled, she really admired Leo, and how he came up with solutions to all kinds of things.
"Sure thing hun!" Retrieving pen and paper, she detailed what articles of clothing got what. "There, all done, I even put down what clothing gets what setting on the washer and dryer, and the time to dry."
"Awesome sweetheart thanks!" Leo rarely used terms of endearment, however, he found himself doing it more and more recently. In speaking with his b brothers, Leonardo had found out that they felt just as he did about the girls. They were falling for them, plain and simple.
Brissen brought him out from his thoughts. "Now that you have a handle on things, I need to go and do my own chores."
Disappointed that she had to leave, Leo nonetheless understood things. Ok: I will see you later then, right?"
"Of course you will hun!" Snaking her arms around his neck, she nuzzled close to him. "How about a kiss to hold me over then?"
Not being one to say no to a woman, especially this one, he nodded entheustacly, 'Of course!" And planted a passionate kiss on her lips that left her breathless.
"Whoa! You do that again, neither of us will get anything done this morning!" She teased, loathe letting him go.
"How about this; if you finish before me, come back here, I can give you more of that in-between loads."
"I'll hold you to that hun!" Brissen had to leave now, or things would get… interesting. To say the least! Slowly letting go of him, she turned and walked away to hurry up with what she needed to do.
Smiling to himself, Leonardo started in on the second load of laundry. Things were going well, and there were no problems. "So far, so good!" he thought to himself; folding his fourth load, Leonardo noticed something… interesting.
He knew almost every article of clothing Brissen owned, including her undergarments. However, most of the other girls clothes; he only had a partial idea of what was whose. Deciding to just fold them all and put it in piles so the girls could retrieve what was theirs.
Content with his decision, Leo started once more to fold the clothes. Coming across a pair of, what looked to be crotch less panties, Leo smiled to himself. "Definitely Rosie's."
One can find out a lot of information about others while doing their laundry and Leo found out that the girls tastes were about the same. They all loved skinny jeans and tight tops. Seren's choices tended to be more towards comic book characters for her everyday working shirts, Isleen, she liked her designer labels, and Rose loved everything. The oldest of the brothers, Leo guessed that Rose dressed by how she felt that day.
He and his brothers, however, did not need much in the way of clothing other than… what was that word that Isleen used to describe it… oh yeah, loincloth. Being around four beautiful 'hot babes' as Mikey usually called them, made the guys… shall we say, excited. How the girls dressed, and at times, lack of dress, the turtles needed something to keep 'the boys' (as Rosie put it) concealed. Isleen came up with the loincloth idea, Seren and Rose sewed them. It was not difficult to know whose was whose, since the color of the loincloths matched their bandana colors.
As the oldest brother started in on doing the sheets and blankets, his mind wandered a bit. He knew that they all did not just use the beds for sleeping. Thoughts of his brothers and the girls having 'fun' on those sheets made him wince, and he ended up quickly tossing them into the washer, not wanting to touch them any longer than he had to.
"Oh geez, pizza stains? And, is that a dried on pepperoni?" Peeling off one, two… and a third pizza topping, Leo chuckled. "Michelangelo for sure!"
Taking out the last of the clothes from the dryer, Leo noticed that most of it was Brissen's. His mind wandered once more, thinking about last night and the 'fun' things they did. Absently leaning forward, his front touched the washer. He quickly realized that leaning against this machine; while on the spin cycle and at the correct angle, was somewhat… pleasurable.
Glancing around to make sure nobody was around, Leo closed his eyes and thought back again about last night. The light vibrations coming from the washer and thoughts of his lady brought a big smile to his face; and a big something else started to pop up as well!
Leonardo would never have done anything like this before; he was quite disciplined in mind and body. However, being around Brissen had relaxed him, and he found himself enjoying life on a level he had never thought could be achieved. Being in the moment, Leo did not noticed Michelangelo, Seren, Raphael and Rose coming toward the house, and right to him!
Mikey and Seren were in an animated conversation about the recent Batman comics she had purchased yesterday. The youngest turtle had his lady and Rose in stitches doing his Batman impersonation, even Raph was smiling somewhat. (while rolling his eyes and calling his brother a doofus)
"Babes, don't encourage him, we'll never hear the end of it!" Raph teased, cracking a smile.
"Aw, but he's so cute doing that voice!"
"He ain't cuter than me though!"
"Nah big guy, you are the cutest, most handsomest, sexy turtle in the world!" Pinching his cheeks, Rosie flashed him a sweet smile.
"Yep I am!" Puffing out his chest, Raphael put his hand on his hips.
Michelangelo, listening in on their conversation, winked at Seren. Giving her a mischievous grin, he snuck behind his older brother, mimicking his moves. Poor Raph did not see him there, but Rose did. The girls nearly pissed themselves when he blurted out, "I'M BATMAN!" Even Raph was laughing at it… after he playfully punched his youngest brother in the arm.
Michelangelo was the first one to reach the door, not noticing Leo, and his… situation, he opened it and stepped inside. Poor Mikey was also the first to notice what was going on as well. The following is what transpired.
"Aw dude, what the shell?!" Michelangelo yelled, covering his eyes with his hands. "Now I'm gonna need therapy to undo what I just saw!"
Raph, being the smartass of the bunch, added, "That's what ya got hands for Leo!"
The two girls, who had not noticed right away because they were talking, finally looked to see what all the commotion was about. Stopping dead in their tracks, Rose promptly covered Seren's eyes, causing her to blurt out, "Hey, I wanna see too!"
Her statement caused Michelangelo to turn around. Flustered, he replied, "What? Dudette, why do you wanna look?"
Michelangelo to turn around. Flustered, he replied, "What? Dudette, why do you wanna look?"
Seren, being as mischievous as the youngest turtle, got both Mikey and Rose back. "Aw babe, I only said that because Rosie gets to look, so why can't I… and anyways, yours is better."
Raphael turned, "Hey, if she ain't looking, you ain't lookin' babes." Promptly covering Rosie's eyes.
"Awwwwwww, no fair!" Rose playfully teased, "I'm older than her!"
"Someone cover MY eyes! No… better yet, gimme some soap so I can wash them out!" Mikey was turning around in circles, eyes still covered. Bumping into Leo, the young turtle looked through his hands, and begin yelling even louder. "OH… MY… GOD!"
Leo, hearing all of this, tried desperately to arrange himself to be more… presentable. Easier said than done when you are a six foot excited mutant turtle with only a loincloth between you and the world. Clearing his throat, the oldest brother tried to compose himself. "Hey guys, doesn't anyone know how to knock?!"
Rose squirmed free from Raph's grip, her eyes going downward to the cause of the poor turtle's embarrassment. Of course, when Rosie got free of Raph, she released her hold on Seren's eyes. The youngest girl followed her friend's eyes downward, her eyes becoming big.
Feeling bad for the guy, Seren tried to make him feel better. "So, you found the sweet spot on the washer dude, it's awesome, isn't it!"
Rolling his eyes at her, Leo grumbled, "Not helping Seren!"
"Oh, sorry dude."
Rose, not being one to mince words, quipped, "Brissen is one lucky girl!"
Leo's eyes widened, "Rose! That's worse!"
"How so? Dude, I gave ya a compliment!" Winking at him, Rosie's smile broadened.
Raphael kind of felt bad for his brother, he knew it was very embarrassing for him, being in the situation he was in. "Alright everyone, let's just chill the hell out and let Leo get himself together." Shoving Mikey forward, and then grabbing hold of Rose and Seren, he let them into the living room and told them to stay put.
Coming back to the doorway, Raphael simply said, "Dude, I feel for ya, but next time, let Brissen handle it!"
"Yeah, ok, can I have some peace now?"
"Sure thing bro." Leaving his oldest brother to sort himself out, the muscular turtle returned to the living room.
After that, Leonardo was all right… somewhat. He still could not get his mind off Brissen, and, to tell the truth, having Rose and Seren seeing 'it' and commenting was somewhat nice. Composing himself as best he could, Leonardo went out in search of Brissen. He had an 'itch' that only she could scratch.
NOTE: Hope y'all enjoyed it as much as I did writing it! Now, last, but most certainly not least, will be Raphael. What I have planned for him is… well, y'all will just have to read it to find out!
