You Look Normal

Beep Beep Beep
"Someone turn off the alarm clock," a sleepy Mikey slurred burying his head deeper into his pillow.
"Up and Adam, Mikey," Leo said jumping out of bed, wide awake and fresh for the day.
"Its 6'o clock," Mikey said peaking out at the alarm clock from under his pillow.
"Yep time for our daily work out," Leo responded, "here April got this for us," Leo told him as he threw a set of black tights, a black under armor shirt, and an a dark orange workout shirt on Mikey's bed.
"Ooo superhero tights," Mikey told Leo plainly and not super impressed by the bland outfit.
"Um no workout tights," Leo explained slightly flustered, not wanting it to beā¦that.
"Only superheroes wear tights, if you're not a superhero they look ridicules," Mikey stated holding up the tights to examine them better.
"Well we have to train and these clothes are the best to do it in," Leo said tossing a pair on Donnie's and Raph's bed, but with different color shirts. They were technical hero though, but I guess they were extremely super now if they ever even were.
"Agh," Raph raised his head feeling something land on his head, "who threw this at me," Raph demanded angrily holding the bundle of clothes up.
"I did, now put them on," Leo said calmly slipping his dark blue shirt on over his head as he finished getting dressed and started to tie his head band around his forehead.
"What, you got to be kidding me," Raph said sitting up and exanimating the bundle of clothes with a distasteful look.
"His not kidding," Mikey said holding up his tights to show Raph his outfit.
"Why do we have to wear these?" Raph asked Leo angrily holding up the tights back up, "We can use sweats or something less stupid," He complained.
"Their easy to move in and dark so we can hide in shadows, plus they will help better with sweat in the cold weather," Leo explained finishing tying his head band around his head and started to slip on his socks. "Can one of you wake Donnie up," Leo asked looking up at Mikey and Raph.
"I will do it!" Mikey sung, pulling his orange shirt over his head over the black under armor before jumping up and going to his immediate older brothers bed, "Wakey, wakey Donnie," Mikey sang pulling Donnie's blankets away from his face before frowning seeing his brothers pale clammy skin, "whoa, Donnie is really pale," he stated concerned.
"Yeah I wonder why were not that pale?" Leo thought out loud, now full dressed. Him and Donnie definitely looked the most related out of him and his brothers human forms. It made him kind of wonder if they could actually be related.
"No he looks sick pale, not Donnie pale," Mikey said putting his hand on Donnie's forehead, "and cold," he added more concerned as his brother shivered at the air getting under his blankets now. He watched Donnie moan weakly as he curled up.
"Leo is he okay?" Mikey asked as he looked at Leo who was now quickly making his way over to the other side of Donnie's bed to check on him.
Leo looked over him concerned as he felt his head as well, "I dont know, Raph go get April," Leo told Raph concerned as he finished getting his tights and red work out shirt.
"Whatever," Raph said as he rolled his eyes before leaving the room shutting the door behind him. He was of course concerned but he wasn't going to show that while he was upset with his little brother.
"Donnie? You okay pal?" Leo asked him, softly shaking his little brother from his sleep as he looked over him worried.
"A-a li-little cold bu-but fine," Donnie stuttered as he rubbed the sleep off of his eyes, shivering more than before.
"Are you kidding, your not fine or a "little" cold, your freezing half to death," Mikey said making quotation marks in the air with his fingers, worried about him and not wanting him to blow this off as nothing.
"Yeah Donnie your freezing," Leo said feeling Donnie's head again and holding it there for a few seconds to get a better feel.
The bed room door suddenly flew open as April ran in wearing a little pink house coat, "What happen?" She asked running over to Donnie's side and putting her hand on his forehead, replacing Leos hand.
"I went to wake Donnie up, but when I lifted his covers up he was really pale and shivering," Mikey explained to April, "He looks sick," He added as he leaned on Donnies dresser beside his bed.
"Okay, Mikey can you get the thermometer from your bathroom, above the sink," April asked pointing to the bathroom as Mikey ran to the sink then came back with the thermometer in hand.
"Here,'' Mikey said as he handed April the thermometer before returning to leaning on the dresser to watch.
"Don open your mouth," She told Donnie as he groaned deeply and slowly opened his mouth to Aprils command before grunting as she stuck the thermometer under his tough, "hold there for a second," She added as he did as he was told unamused. He hated people babying him and he hated being sick..he could do this himself..
Beep-beep Beep-beep
"Open up Donnie," April told him gently as she pulled the thermometer from Donnie's mouth and read it, "just what I thought," April sighed softly.
"What? What's wrong?" Leo asked, concerned for his little brother as he watched April.
"His temperature is 9.59 a normal temperature should be between 98 and 100," April told the three teens standing near the bed.
"Is that bad?" Mikey asked concerned as he looked at the temperature worried.
"Of course it is bad, shell for brains," Raph stated as he rolled his eyes, it wasn't normal, that meant bad.
"It means he has minor hypothermia Mikey," April told the blond haired boy, "His too cold, we need to warm him up," She told them.
"Is it fatal," Mikey blurted out feeling scared his brother could die.
"No, no not if we get him warmed up, and he doesn't get any colder," April replied, not too worried about this being fatal, it wasn't nearly low enough for that but that didn't mean he wasn't sick.
"What is going on?" a voice at the door asked.
"Splinter! I forgot about you," Mikey said surprised as he looked at his father.
"What is going on?" Splinter asked again as he gave Mikey a slightly warning look.
"Donatello is sick master," Leo replied as he went towards his master, "He has hypothermia we believe," Leo told him slightly concerned.
"Is it severe Mrs. O'Neal?" Splinter asked kindly as he stepped in closer to his younger son.
"A bit, but nothing that cannot be fixed with rest, hot water, and some heaters," she responded.
"Then let's now waste time," Splinter said as he looked at his other sons, wanting to get on top of this before his sons condition worsened..
"Agreed, Leo can you boil some water, to make heat packs to put around Don, Raph carry up the two extra heaters down in the basement, and Mikey fine some more blankets, I am going to get Donnie in the tub," April ordered them.
"W-what?" Donnie asked with wide eyes and red cheeks as Mikey giggled in amusement.
April looked at Mikey and Donnie confused, "What," She asked them unsure.
"You're going to give Donnie a bath," Mikey giggled out amused as he watched them.
"Yes, a hot bath to bring up his tempter," April explained, not sure why he found it funny.
"His going to be naked," Mikey giggled again and he grinned, he wouldn't mind getting a bath from April, Donnie always got all the girls..
"He can leave his boxers on Mikey, now go fine some blankets," April said as she rolled her eyes in understanding as Raph grabbed Mikeys ear and pulled his out of the room.
"OW! That hurts," Mikey complained as he stumbled after him with Leo following behind them.
"I will make some hot tea for you Donatello," Master Splinter told his son and disappeared down the stairs.
"Thank you sensi," Donnie told his father as he sniffed softly before looking at April red faced.
"I guess I'll go run your water," April stated before leaving to the boys bathroom to get a nice bath going.
Donnie's POV
I sighed when I could hear the water running in the bathroom making me blush deeper. I hope this is not going to be too embarrassing and I am definitely leaving my boxers on.
Then I thought about Raph and them again. They all have to help me get better now, I keep burdening my family with all my issues. Oh man, now April might not take them into town and get them haircuts, and she really wanted to do that too, not stay home and take care of me. I'll have to talk her into going.
April entered the room bringing him out of his thoughts.
"Okay Donnie waters ready," she told me warmly.
I tried to get up, but my body would not work right and April had to help me up and take baby steps to the bathroom as I groaned tiredly from the walk. She then had to help me slip off my shirt. I could feel my face heat up when my shirt came off leaving me in my boxers. I was not used to the feeling of being naked and I really didn't like it or showing my new body.
I was probably the weakest of my brothers even though Mikey was youngest, then again Raph was strongest and not the oldest. We all were still very in shape in our new bodies.
Hot water on my toes brought me back to the real world and sent tingles up my spine. When I was completely in the water my whole body felt numb.
"How long do I have to s-stay in here," I asked April unsure and wanting to get out already, but could not get all compete words to come out of my mouth as my teeth chattered.
"About half an hour," She replied sweetly as she pet his hair gently to keep him relaxed.
"Oh," I said before deciding to ask about going to town now, "are you still going take t-the guys to town tod-day?" I asked her softly as I looked up at her.
"And leave you here, no way," She assured me as I frowned at her reply.
"Why, after this I am just going to sleep and Splinter will be here with me," I told her, begging she would go so I do not mess up their day by making them stay here with me. I didn't want to be babied all day anyways by her and Leo anyways.
"You have a point, but are you sure we should risk it?" April asked me with a concerned look.
"Trusted me April I'll be fine, there is no risk," I told her with a soft smile as I patted her hand.
She smiled back, "Okay then I will take them out," She assured me.
30 minutes later
"Okay Donnie you can come out now," April's voice broke me out of a sleepy daze. I looked around only to feel the sleep still in my eyes as I yawned. I actually was starting to really enjoy this bath.
"Come on I will help you up," She said pulling me up by my shoulders as I groaned and slumped slightly.
I felt even more dazed on my feet, while April dried my body and hair for me.
"Okay Donnie we have to change your clothes, all of them," she said with a knowing tone.
I was dazed for a minute then understood what she said and blushed as I gave her an unsure look at what she was saying.
"U-um even my b-boxers," I Donnie stuttered half due to the dazed feeling and half due to the embarrassment.
"Well yeah, their soaked," April reminded me, "here put your arms up," she told me as I did and she slipped a gray, thick, long sleeve shirt over my head and on to my torso. I watched her as she grabbed a pair of dry boxers from a pile of clothes on the counter. She must have got some clothes while I was in the tub dosing off.
"Do you want to see if you can put them on before I do it," she asked me amused and sympathetic.
I nodded my head eagerly as I took the dry boxers from her, and she turned around to give me some privacy. I slowly pulled down my wet boxers feeling a bit uncomfortable, before slowly putting on the dry ones.
"D-done," I told her relieved as she turned around and smiled at me amused.
"Good, now let's get you back to bed," she said pulling me to the door. I was able to move much easier now but I was now really tired.
As soon as April open the bathroom door a wave of heat hit me and sent slivers though me. Two heaters plus the one we had already were blazing in the room. April helped me sit in my bed which now had five thick quilts on it.
"This kind of seems like overkill," I told April sheepishly as I walked towards the bed and slowly sat down.
"Don't be silly," April told me as she helped me sit down on the bed and moved the blankets down so I could get under them.
"You look better my son, here drink this," Splinter said entering the room and sitting next to my bed with hot tea.
I looked at April as I slid my legs under the blankets and let her cover me up as Splinter handed me the cup.
I sipped on the tea till I finished the bitter drink off and laid back in the bed. April pulled the quilts to my neck and put two hot bags of water on my sides, one on my head, and one on each foot.
I groaned softly at the overkill but it should did feel good. I saw April leave the room and Splinter settle down near me with a book to keep an on me.
I heard April talking to the boys about leaving when they were done practicing as my eyes completely shut and sleep quickly took over me.
The next chapter is about April taking the boys out. R&R!
