This is based off of the 2012 show in season 2, episode 4, where Casey and April met and Donnie saw them together. Also, because of the slew of schoolwork I got this week, I have not caught up on requests. Hopefully I'll get back on track soon. Also, for Rise of TMNT, if there's a late update for tomorrow's episode, that means that it hasn't been uploaded online or I'm just having trouble doing it for other reasons.

(Amy and Donnie—2012) Amy helps Donnie forget about Casey and April.

Donnie tries to focus, but his mood doesn't elevate. All he could think about was April...

Amy's sitting on his desk as she listens to him.

"Ridiculous! And-and they were swinging together! Swinging!" Donnie exclaims in anger. Amy glances away to see a picture of him and April swinging together. Her eyes droop. Due to an accident, April had cut them out of their lives. Donnie was understandably devastated, but he still had hope. Hope that April would come back and forgive them, hope that she can get past that they accidentally caused her father to be mutated...

And he knew Amy was hurting over the ordeal too. She and April were really close, but now...

"Swinging together means nothing," She shakes her head slowly.

"And then she looked at him. Can you believe it? She gave him that look, like-like-like this," Donnie bats his eyes sweetly as he has a doe-eyed smile.

"I don't think she looked at him like that," Amy crosses her arms, raising a brow. She would think that April has a little restraint.

He drops the smile as he gives a disgusted look. "Ohh...why was she even with him?"

"They could've been studying. April did have her textbook with her," Amy holds up a finger.

"Because he's human, that's why! Big deal! Do you know how many people are human?"

"I don't know, 36 million and counting?" Amy deadpans and he rolls his eyes. "Donnie, you're being paranoid. April's not just gonna suddenly date someone out of the blue. She can make her own choices, you know."

He says nothing and she rubs her temple at his silence. "Besides, I'm sure that being human has nothing to do with it. Look at me, I'm going out with your brother."

"That's because Leo can handle it," Donnie mutters almost bitterly. "Face it, I'm losing April to that guy."

"You are not," Amy sighs slowly, placing her hand on his shell. "If Leo can date, then there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to."

"It's not as easy as you think," He tells her, placing down the voice box for Timothy. "I'm a mutant, and the same one who let her father get mutated..."

"She'll come around for that, and so what? It doesn't bother me that Leo's who he is," Amy gestures to herself. "And April will see that too..."

"What if she doesn't?" Donnie whispers almost quietly and Amy says nothing as she looks at him. He's hunched over at his desk, his face showing dejection. "What if she never forgives me and I lose her forever? To that guy?"

"That won't happen," Amy shakes her head, placing a hand on his shoulder. "April might be upset now, and if she wants to forgive us, that'll be her choice. We shouldn't be checking in on her personal life like this, Donnie. It's wrong."

"I know," He covers his face with his hands, "I know, but I couldn't help it, Amy. I can't help but wonder...when will she be friends with us again? When will she stop being mad at us? When will she understand that it wasn't our fault?"

Amy closes her eyes. She wished for that too. April was her best friend. It obviously wasn't the same not having her around, but what could she do? Force April to talk to them again? That was something for the redhead to decide, and Amy did not want to influence her in any way.

"Cheer up, Don. We'll find all of the mutagen and make a cure for her dad."

Donnie nods slowly. "Right. Right...we'll find the canisters...and I'll win April back."

Her face turns soft as she crosses her arms, noting his optimistic tone. He looks up at her and smiles. "Thank you, Amy. You're...probably the only one I can talk to about this right now."

"Me?" Amy gestures to herself.

"Yeah. You understand it better than my brothers can. Raph would just tell me to forget about April, Mikey's too...Mikey, and Leo would probably tell me to focus on something else. And I do appreciate the help with my inventions once in a while."

Amy smiles at him. "If I don't, who will?"

Donnie glances away. "Hey...do you wanna go to the junkyard tonight?"

She snorts, shaking her head. "Again? Donnie, these trips are gonna be the end of you. Don't we have training tomorrow?"

Neither of them notice Timothy glancing at the picture of Donnie and April. He gets a dark feeling in his insides. He wants companionship...like Donnie has not only with April, but with Amy, his love. Why can't she love him like she does with the others? He wants that feeling too...

"I need some parts for the Shellraiser," Timothy looks back to Donnie as he's leaning against his chair.

"I get that, but why ask me?" Amy's leaning across his desk, her back to Timothy.

"I...could use a distraction from April," Donnie closes his eyes. "And I need...I need a friend there. Amy, you're the only one who I know won't tell the others."

"Are you asking me not to tell them?" Amy raises an eyebrow knowingly.

"...Yes?" Donnie rubs his neck sheepishly. "I know it's not ideal, but I don't want them knowing about this just yet. And I know I'm risking your relationship with my brother by asking you to keep a secret from him, but if it comes to that...I'll take full responsibility. I don't want to break you guys apart because I didn't tell him about this."

Timothy narrows his eyes at Amy's hesitation. Asking Amy to keep a secret is not what a friend would do. He'd never do that to Amy or April. He would never hurt them by keeping things like this inside. What kind of friend allows a relationship to weaken like that? Donnie wasn't a good friend at all. He just wants to forget about April.

"...Okay," Amy sighs slowly. "I appreciate you saying that, Donnie, but...if you're really willing to take the fall for me...then I'll go to the junkyard with you. One condition, though."

"Name it."

"Don't tell Leo that it was your idea."

"What?" His eyes widen at her request. "Why? I thought we were friends. Don't friends sacrifice things for each other?"

"Yes," Amy gives him a look that he can't read. "But Leo's your brother. I can handle telling him if I have to. You know how he gets when we stay up late. Besides...I don't want you to do that for me."

"I'd do it regardless," He stares at her in the eye seriously. "You've done a lot for us, you know. Raph won't admit it, but he appreciates having a little sister around. So Amelia Elizabeth Smith, do not hesitate to try and stop me if I want to do something for you."

"Alright, alright," Amy holds up her hands up in defeat. "You win...this time."

"We'll see," Donnie gives her an amused smile.

Timothy glares at them for their secret escapades. If he could, he'd go tell Leo himself. How could they keep secrets like this? Wasn't it going to be obvious the next morning? Whenever he gets out, he'll take Amy and get April so that they can be friends with him.

And maybe...something more...
