Hey guys! Back with a speedy update! Woohoo! Enjoy! This has the begining of Giai Kame's idea in it! :)
What's Happening Here?
Olivia's POV
"My parents just always expected way too much from me and [Y/N]. You see, my dad was the owner of a successful restaurant that became so popular that they opened up hundreds all across the east coast." I start.
"Which one?" Leo asks.
I sigh. "Jimmy's Diner. Ya know, the one that's got the fifties thing going and makes the best milkshakes around? There's one not too far from April's actually." You say and Leo nods.
"Yeah. I've seen it a couple of times." He says.
"Yup. That's Dad's." I laugh a bit. "And my mom, she's a professional figure skater. She's even been to the Winter Olympics a couple of times. Has a couple of gold medals."
"Wow." Leo says in an impressed tone. "Really?"
"Yeah. But anyways, they always expected [Y/N] and I to be like them. Successful, rich," I say.
"You're rich?" Leo asks.
I laugh. "I was. I mean, after I left though they cut me off. Any money I get now is stuff I've made on my own." I say, then I fiddle with my hands a bit. "But when [Y/N] left for college, it all went downhill. I've never been as smart as she is and when I started struggling in school my parents started getting really strict. They would cut off any interaction I had with my friends and made me study. It worked for a while, but then I… I guess I just got tired of it. Tired of all the pressure. So, one night, I snuck out to go to a party with one of my friends. That's where I met Liam. He told me about the Dragons and after some thought, I joined. A hid it from my parents for a couple of weeks, but they caught me sneaking out one night. After they learned I was a Purple Dragon, they kicked me out. Said they wanted nothing to do with me. So, I moved into HQ with my team, and well… you know the rest." I say.
"Your team?" He asks.
"Yeah. I was a part of Liam's gang. Only we called ourselves a team. We were like special ops. There was me, Liam, Otto, our mechanic, Trev, the muscles, and Fiona, brains." I say. "We were inseparable. But then all that stuff happened, and now here I am." He's silent for a second before asking.
"So, does [Y/N] hate your parents too?" He asks.
"Not as much as I do, but she still does. She's come close to the edge before. When we were teens, she came really close to joining the Dragons, but in the end she didn't. So she kept her cool until she was out of the house. But when she left, I didn't really have anybody to look forward to during the day. But I would call her and we would spend countless hours on the phone. When I joined Liam's gang though, I didn't return her calls or anything. So one day she just stopped trying to contact me." I shrug.
"I'm sorry Olivia." He says.
"It's okay. I mean, now I have Master Splinter. And April's good to go to for advice and stuff like that. I'm just glad I'm with my sister though." I tell him. He nods understandingly.
"I'm glad you're looking on the bright side of things." He smiles.
"Well, when life hands you lemons, make lemonade." I smile back. He stands and heads for the floor in the dojo. He stops though and turns around.
"Would you… would you like to train with me, Olivia?" He asks in a bit of uncertainty. I think for a second before smiling at him.
"Yeah, yeah I would." I reply, standing and heading over to him. "Oh and Leo?"
"Hmm?"
"Just call me Liv." I say.
Back To You
"Do not fret for my sons, [Y/N]. They shall be home soon. But I suggest you get some sleep. You look like you need it." Master Splinter chuckles at you as he stands and starts walking towards his room.
"Thanks Master Splinter." You reply sarcastically.
"Goodnight [Y/N]." He says.
"Goodnight sensei." You reply with a small smile. You stay in the kitchen and sip your coffee mug. A few minutes later, the lair door creeks open.
"Do you think we'll get in trouble for being out so late?" You hear Donny ask.
"We won't if we don't get caught." Raph replies. They both walk into the kitchen but stop when they see you. "Busted." Raph says. You see they're back in their turtle forms.
"I'm not Master Splinter. I can't make you do flips or whatever." You say casually.
"Did you and Olivia make it back okay?" Donny asks.
"Yeah, no thanks to you guys though." You say. Donny looks at the ground in shame.
"Where is Liv?" Raph asks.
"She's in the dojo with Leo." You reply. Raph's looks switches to confusion but then he shakes his head and marches off to his room. You're left in silence with Donny.
"So…" He starts.
"So." You mumble, then sip your coffee. He enters the kitchen and goes to make himself a mug.
"Did you have a good time tonight?" He asks.
"Yeah, I did." You say. "What about you? Brittney and Alexa fun to hang out with?"
He pauses, but you can see a small smile on his face. "Yeah. We had a good time." He says.
"I'm sure you did." You huff.
"Brittney's actually very intelligent when she isn't drinking so much. She sobered up and we got to talking about some very interesting subjects." He continues.
"I'm sure you did." You repeat.
"I'm meeting her at the club again Friday night." He smiles. This time, you choke on your drink a bit.
"Excuse me?" You ask.
"I mean, it's not a date. She just wants to get to know me more." He says. You roll your eyes.
"Yeah. I'm sure THAT's what she wants to do Donny." You say.
"What?" He asks, looking at you. You just sigh.
"Nothing. I'm going to bed. Goodnight Donatello." You say, get up, and head to your room. You pass the dojo and see Leo helping Olivia with some of her forms. You watch them for a second. Olivia's in a punching form and Leo's talking to her while he straightens her back, tests her balance, and other stuff a teacher would do. Olivia looks very determined and serious. Leo says something to her, then goes in front of her and stares her in the face. They both stare at each other, but suddenly Leo makes a funny face. Olivia tries to fight back her smile, but isn't successful. She ends up laughing and breaking her stance. Leo starts chuckling at her funny laugh that no one really hears fully. If she does laugh, it's usually just a chuckle, not her full, happy laugh. You grin when you hear her snort a bit. Her face reddens and she tries to control her laugh, but Leo makes that face again and she can't hold it. You shake your head and smile as you walk towards your room. You thought your sister had feelings for the red clad turtle, but now you see how happy she is with Leo. This just makes you confused. But it does take your mind off a certain turtle for a few minutes. But as soon as your head hits your pillow, thoughts of your purple clad, bo wielding turtle fill your mind. You just groan. You won't tell Donny not to go. It'd be like him not telling you to go out to lunch with Liam about a month ago. If he would've told you not to go, you would've told him to stop being so jealous. So you really don't want to be a hypocrite. Soon, you fall into a deep sleep that you've needed for a while…
So, yeah. Sorry for the shortness of it. But I was ready to write tonight, but then some things came up and I didnt have as much time as I planned. :/ So, I'm so sorry about not getting Mikey's Cutie up tonight. Hope you guys can forgive me!
