Thankful
Chapter XIII: Problems

August 5, 2001 The drive home was a silent one. Raphael hated the silence. He especially hated the fact Venus was refusing to talk to him and because he spent another night on the couch last night.
"You want anything to eat?" Raphael asked her.
"No." Venus folded her arms. She couldn't wait to be home.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Late that night.
Leonardo walked in the lair to find Raphael on the couch.
"Where've you been?" A voice said from the couch.
"Out." Leonardo replied. "Why you on the couch?"
"Venus is pissed at me." Raphael said making himself comfortable
"What'd you do now?"
Raphael rolled his eyes. "Nothing. She's just mad because I want to move to the farmhouse to raise the children."
Leonardo sat down in a chair. "Why do you want to move there? Plus, you hate being in the same place all the time. And, there are no Foot Clan members for you to beat up on."
"Sure." Raphael said. "Take her side."
"Well."
"What do you know? You're out late all night hanging at the Dragon Lord's place hittin' on his daughter. He probably knows your not a dragon and is playing you like a fool."
Leonardo stood up. "Next time, I won't even ask you anything. Have fun on the couch. You may be there for another few days."
"Piss off."

"Come on Vee. We need to talk about this." Raphael said to Venus.
Venus folded her arms. "There is nothing to talk about. "You are an asshole."
Venus pushed pass him and slammed the door to her room. Then, she began to cry.
Angered, Raphael stormed out of the lair and rode off to Casey and April's apartment.
Venus lay on the bed crying. Why. Why was he acting like this?
^^^^^^ An hour later.
Venus stood up and went to the bathroom. She sat on the toilet about to go, when she noticed she was bleeding.
"Oh my." Venus began to panic. What if she was miscarrying? "Splinter, Donnie."
Donatello was the first to reach her. "Are you alright?"
"I'm bleeding." Venus began shaking.
"You're bleeding." Donatello saw blood on Venus' thighs. "OOHHKKAAYYY! We need to get her to Obento and quick."
"Where is Raphael?" Splinter asked.
"I don't know." Venus began crying. "We had another fight and."
"Calm down." Splinter told her. "It's going to be alright. We'll find him."
^^^^^^^^ "Where is she?" Raphael rushed into the animal shelter. "Is she alright? Are the babies alright?"
"She's fine, but she has been under a lot of unnecessary stress." Obento said to him. "She's in here."
Raphael walked in the room to fine Venus lying on the table. "Hey baby."
"Hey." Venus said weakly.
"I'm sorry." Raphael said and placed his hand on her belly.
"Me too." Venus said. "Obento put me on bed rest. He doesn't want me to do any chores or exercises or anything."
"Yeah." Raphael smiled. "If you don't want to move, then we won't."
"I don't want to move."
"Then, we won't." Raphael grabbed her hand. "We'll stay where our family is."
"I'd like that." Venus smiled. "Thank you."
"For what?"
"For everything." Venus placed their hands on her belly.
Obento walked in the door. "It's good to see the two of you together again. Since we are all here, do you want to see the ultrasound again."
"Yeah, I want to see it."
"So do I."
"Do you want to know the sex?" Obento looked up from the screen.
Venus and Raphael looked at each other and nodded.
Obento looked at the screen. "Here is your son and here is another son. Congratulations on having two boys."
Raphael smiled. "I'm goin' have two sons."
Venus smiled also, especially after seeing Raphael's face light up. However, Venus knew her babies better than any machine did.
