You Look Normal

Chapter 17

I sat in the barn working mechaninly on a cure caught up in my thoughts. I am not sure I can face Raph when he came back, would Raph even care. No, I couldn't think like that anymore. Of course Raph would care, I am his little brother. Then again things have not been normal, I mean Raph hit me!

I heard a car engine coming down the drive way.

I began to panic, what do I do!

Something touched my leg.

"Ah!" That was the girlish scream ever!

"Kluck!" my yelled and the orange tom stared at me.

I put my face in my hands, I need to calm down.

"Donnie?"

I peeked through my hands to see Kluck run out past Raph, his black Rolling Stones shirt and gray pants stood out against the white snow.

My face heated up, did Raph see that?

"H Hey," I choked on my words, well word.

"Wha What happen to ya," I could see anger deep in Raph's dark eyes as he stared at my bandaged head and some dry blood on my cheek circling around my bruised cheek.

"Did I do that," Raph asked in realization and fear.

"N NO!" I put my hands up to stop him from worrying, "I just ran into some trouble," I mumbled.

Anger not light up his eyes, "Who hurt you!"

I don't know what came over me, I just got so angry, I have had worst wounds before but Raph hurt me more than anyone ever did.

"You did Raph! You hurt me! More than the Foot more than Jacob! So don't act like you care!" I was standing up now pointing accusingly at Raph, who look completely shocked and I think stumbled back a bit.

"I," Raph looked shocked and guilty, which was understandable my brothers always looked scared or shocked when I was angry, they said my tempter was even worse than Raphs when I got angry which was only once in a blue moon.

"M'sorry," Raph said and lowered his head in defeat.

I seriously didn't know what to do now, I didn't feel angry anymore, I felt relieved and sad.

"Y you c cant j just," I didn't want to be mad, but then again… suddenly my legs buckled and I was sobbing, AGAIN!

Raph ran over and kneeled beside me grabbing my shoulders, "come on Donnie just um," I knew Raph had no idea what to do so l started by laying my head on his shouldered.

Raph held me closer now and patted my head whisper 'Im sorry' in my ear.

"No M'sorry, my fault," I sobbed back.

"Its not your fault, I am sorry I blamed you I was ju just… scared, I thought we were going to split up, or get hurt, I felt like I could protect you guys, but I guess I split us up and hurt you myself," Raph said trying to explain, but he didn't need to I knew why, I just did realize it till now.

I pulled back and looked at him with red, tear filled eyes, "its okay," I said.

"No it's not okay, I am your older brother I am supposed to protect you and I was the one that hurt you, I hit you for Christ sake!" Raph eyes looked teared up, "I will never forgive myself," Raph whispered.

"You not mad anymore?" I asked, I had to make sure.

"I was never mad at you, just at myself; I shouldn't have taken it out on you. D do you forgive me?" He asked.

I nodded, I wasn't mad at him but it still hurt.

Raph stood up and held me close next to him, till I was back in my chair. Raph undid my head bandage and move my hair to see the wound Jacob gave me when I hit the tree.

"Jacob did this?" Raph asked trying to keep his voice calm.

Raph cleaned my wound and redressed like I taught him.

"What else?" Raph asked.

"Nothing," I lied I didn't want to let my guard down.

"Do not lie to me, Donnie where else?" Raph asked calmly.

Truthfully I was a little scared to have him mad at me, so I sighed I lifted my shirt up to show my bruised ribs.

"I am going to kill them," Raph mumbled rapping the bandaged around my midriff.

"I am fine," I said, "anyways Leo took care of it."

Raph looked down guilty and finished with the bandages.

"So um Splinter needs to talk to me, you shouldn't be alone out here with the Foot here," Raph stated.

"Why?" I asked a little insulted.

"Your injured, and been a danger magnet since we got here," Raph pointed out.

"I can handle it," I replied.

"Don't make me carry you," Raph threated.

"You wouldn't," I glared back.

"Okay you would," Donnie stated as Raph carried him back to the barn house.

"It was your choose," Raph said playfully as he knocked on the door.

Mikey open the porch door surprised, "Oh hey dinners done," he replied and walked back into the kitchen.

Raph slid through the door careful not to hit Donnie's head on the door frame.

"I'll be out in a second Mike," Raph said tossing Donnie onto the couch and heading to Splinters room.

Donnie sat up and pouted sticking his tough out at Raph's back before heading to the kitchen.

"Oh Donnie!" April jumped down the stairs and hugged him before he made it to the kitchen.

"I was so worried, don't you ever run off like that again," April scolded holding him by his shoulders.

Donnie blushed, "Sorry April I-."

April didn't let him finish, "We looked everywhere for you, you could have been kidnapped or-,"

Donnie cut in, "I been training to be a ninja for-."

"Look your hurt!" April said worried.

"I already took care of-," Donnie tried to reassure.

"I was so worried," April said and they both started at each other.

"Um you guys okay?" Leo asked from the stair case.

"Hush you," April said pointing to Leo who held his hands up in surrender. April turned back to Donnie, "after dinner you are spending the rest of the day in bed," April said.

"But-,"

"No buts, dinner then bed," April ordered then walked past him to go the kitchen.

Donnie glared at Leo who was smirking beside him.

"Shut up," Donnie blushed going into the kitchen.

"I didn't say anything," Leo said still in surrender following him.
