Thanks for everyone who review, follow, and or favorite this story. It's really appreciated
Luckily for Donnie, Mikey and Leatherhead didn't hear his sudden angry outburst. Leo and Raph quickly held him back before he did something he would regret later on and dragged him all the way to his lab. As soon as they were in, Donnie just lost it. He managed to get out of his brothers grip and looked at them furiously. Leo and Raph looked right back at him with scared eyes.
"Partner?! Partner! Is he serious?!"
"Donnie...Donnie calm down..."Leo said frightened.
"Yeah man...take it easy."Raph said a little nervous.
"Calm down...take it easy?!"He yelled at them with such anger, the vein on his forehead returned full force.
"...Yes."Leo and Raph squeaked out in unison.
"What is going on here?!"The turtles turned around and saw their master coming towards them."Donatello! I can hear your yelling all the way from my room, it disturbed my meditation.
Donnie's anger quickly faded away and looked down in shame."I'm sorry Master Splinter."
Splinter sensed something coming from his second youngest. He wasn't sure what it was, but he was sure to find out."Leonardo, Raphael, I would like to speak to your brother...alone."He said while not taking his eyes off of Donnie, who looked back up to him nervously. Leo and Raph nodded silently and left.
"Hey...Raph?"
"Yeah Leo?"
"That...squeaking in fear back there..."
"Never happened."
"Agreed."
"Master Splinter, I...I didn't mean to..."Donnie trailed off, not knowing what to say.
Splinter noticed this and placed a gentle hand on his shoulder."Rest assured, my son, I am not angry at you. I am more concerned if anything. Is something troubling you?"
Donnie twiddled his fingers nervously."Well...yes...and no. Ow!"He rubbed his head at the abrupt cane attack.
"That's what I say."He scolded playfully and chuckled.
Donnie realized what he said and chuckled as well."Oh, right. What I mean by that is that...I'm well...kind of jealous."
The rat raised his eyebrows."Is this about April?"
"W-What! No!"He blushed a little."It's Mikey!"
"Michelangelo?"Splinter said surprised."How so?"
"He's...he and Leatherhead...it bothers me that..."He shook his head, knowing he wasn't making any sense."I don't like the fact that Mikey likes Leatherhead more than me."He crossed his arms and slightly pouted like a child. His eyes widened when he hear a specific noise and looked at Splinter incredulously.
"M-Master!"
Splinter chuckled more, despite his son's protest. After a few seconds, he managed to stop and look at his son with a smile."I believe what you believe as a fact is a matter of opinion. What you are feeling right now is natural, Donatello."He said as he walked away from him."Do not let it consume you, however, even if it's quite amusing."
He chuckled some more and left Donnie alone in his lab with his thoughts.
Sorry for those of you who are feeling bad for Donnie...just wait until the next chapter...any guesses?
