"What do you mean you can't go to the tournament?" Mikey asked confused

"because I can't miss work that day" Donnie said sitting on the edge of their bed

"why don't you use one of your sick days, you have enough for 3 whole weeks" Mikey asked, his eyes narrowed

"I know Mikey but I just can't miss it" Donnie trying to convince his boyfriend "you could get a substitute" he suggested

"and where would we find one" Mikey asked crossing his arms

"we could ask Splinter if Leo could take my spot and then later get him on the team" Donnie spoke lowly

"what if Leo doesn't even want to" Mikey said as he calmed down some

"oh trust me he want to" Donnie smiled

curious now Mikey asked, "how do you even know"

"he told me" Donnie replied crossing his arms

"fine I give up" Mikey huffed out in frustration, throwing on his coat

"see ya when you get back" Donnie waved waiting till the front door closed and locked, did he stripped of his clothes then put on the Purple-Black kimono .

"sometimes I believe Saki picks on me because I'm a turtle" Donnie huffed to himself looking at himself in the mirror

While he moved to the rhythm of the song Don decide to work on the difficult ones first. Accidently pulling on the side on the finishing pose he realized that the kimono split on the side so they showed off his legs. Ya great one more thing to hate about this job hearing the door open Don froze.

"hey Donnie I'm home, Raph is also here" Leo called closing the door behind them

"yo Don ya here I heard what happen at work today" Raph said after Leo knocking once more on Mikey and Dons bedroom door. About to knock on the door again it open wide revealing Dons outfit

"Donnie! What are you wearing" Leo question in shock

releasing the breath he was holding Don looked at Raph for some kind of help.

"fine but you owe me" Raph gave in and Don gave him a nod

with a sign Raph turned to Leo. "remember when I told you how I hated Don's job" waiting until Leo nodded did he continue "well one reason is because he is a dancer with so much grace that it puts ballerinas to shame, and he also has one of the highest IQ's. But the bad thing is he works for a man called Shredder aka Saki who is a Hamato enemy from many generations" Raph said keeping quite about the foot and there team

"I also won't be going to the tournament" Donnie put in nervously

"what!Why?" Raph question loudly

"that is the very reason why I have this stupid kimono on in the first place" Donnie said folding his arms "I should be glad I get a day off from the physical contact anyway" he mumbled but Leo had caught him

"what kind of Physical contact?" Leo question

"nothing" Donnie said trying to figure out how to change the subject

"I bet you that bastard did that on purpose" Raph growled angrily

"even if he did I wouldn't have a choice anyway" Donnie snapped

"does Mikey know about this?" Leo spoke up

"yes, that is the reason he went to see Splinter" Donnie smiled

"we can't even enter the tournament without three or more people" Raph huffed frustrated to no end

"I know that is why i suggested Leo to take my place for now" Donnie replied brightly

"he'll be a beginner and will have to train after school till 8 so you have time to eat, take a shower, and go to bed" Raph explain to Leo

"and don't forget those private lessons Leo" Don nudge Leo laughing at his blush
