Alright, here's the next chapter! Enjoy!

Leo moaned as Raph dragged him further into the woods. "I don't wanna GOOOOOOOOOOO! IF YOU LOVE ME LET ME GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he said loud as all loud.

"I dun care. An' yer a bad singa."

"I never said I was a good one."

"Well ya seemed pretty damn betta when we did da karaoke ya forced us inta."

"OK, we all agreed on that. Including Angel and April and Casey," Leo retorted.

"I'm not listenin'!"

"Where are we even going?"

"We're goin' on a walk like YOU suggested yestaday!"

"Yeah, but I don't wanna go now!"

"I dun care, i's yer fault we're out here anyway!"

"Alright, now I'm not listening!"

"Alright, le's take a goddammit break, then!"

Leo rolled his eyes and stopped, leaning on a tree. "I never said I was tired. It's just that I don't want to be out here! It's cold, and you never let me have a chance to grab a jacket or anything!"

"ya can't handle a little fall weatha?" Raph asked as he sat against the same tree Leo was leaning against. Leo sat down next to him, yawning.

"I can, but I ge' col' when I'm tired, and I didn't get much sleep last night," the leader said with another yawn.

Raph smiled to himself. "Why?"

"I dunno. Guess this place still haunts me because of what Shredder did. But I'm only up really late here s few nights when we visit. I mean, we're here for a month-ish, right? I'm usually only up 4 or 5 nights here when we're here that long," Leo replied with a shrug as he crossed his legs, putting his left knee over his right lower calf.

Raph put his left knee up and put his other one straight, facing it away from Leo, whose eyes were drooping closed. He kept them open to listen to what Raph was saying.

"Y'know, I feel like you just neva really ge' much sleep," the hothead said, his smile fading the smallest bit, but it still sort of persisted.

"Well, I have to do more training than you guys, being leader and all," Leo said sleepily.

"Who said? Splinta?"

"Me."

Raph nearly started. Leo stayed up training because he wanted to?

"I'm not saying that it's my favorite thing," Leo said, as if reading Raph's mind. "I'm just saying that as the leader, it's my responsibility to do the training I need to protect you guys."

"Yeah, but ya alsa need enough sleep so yer not too fatigued ta fig'," Raph retorted.

Leo's eyes started drooping closed again. "Ne'er thought... 'bout tha'... *light snore*"

Leo's head landed on Raph's left shoulder, and Raph didn't turn his head, but looked at his brother from the side.

"Sleep well, bro. An' get as much 'a it as ya can," he muttered to himself, settling himself into a more comfortable position himself and drifting off.

Of course, neither of them knew which way they'd gone with all the yelling at each other and not paying attention they'd done...
