~ Got a new chapter up but it's a little short compared to some of my other stories :o)
A few days go by and it is close to New Years Eve. The girls were gathered around the TV watching a Muppet's Christmas Carol. Raphael walks in and does a double take.
"Wasn't Christmas over a few days ago?" he asked.
"Yeah, so?" TMNTPunker asked.
"Just curious," Raphael said, then turned to walk out until Danceingfae's voice stopped him.
"Is it true that on your fifth Christmas that you got your head stuck in the spokes of a bicycle?" Hands gripped at his sides Raphael walked over to the girls.
"Who told you that?" Raphael said through clenched teeth. All the other girls had their mouths gaped open then some started to laugh.
"It's true?" TMNTPunker questioned.
"Shut up," Raphael glared at her.
"How could you fit your head in there, Raph?" HexAdecimal asked through laughter.
"It was a big wheel," Raphael protested. By this time all the girls were rolling. Daydream stood up and grabbed Michelangelo's hoola hoop he left out and stuck her head through it.
"Look, I'm Raph and I'm stuck," Daydream laughed. Raphael jumped to get her but Daydream threw the hoola hoop at him and ran away. The movie forgotten, the rest of the girls followed in the chase into the dojo. Master Splinter was there with the other three turtles for afternoon practice.
"Mikey he's gonna kill me!" Daydream yelled running behind Michelangelo.
"Chill dudette, Raph won't kill you," Michelangelo said.
"He's not that mean?" Daydream asked.
"No," Leonardo piped in. "Too many witnesses."
"What is this about?" Master Splinter asked as everyone else filed in the room.
"Someone told Dance about my bike incident," Raphael accused pointing at Danceingfae. Master Splinter surpressed a chuckle but looked to Danceingfae.
"Who told you that?" Master Splinter asked.
"Uh, I have to say who told me don't I?" Danceingfae asked. Master Splinter nodded.
"I did sensei," Michelangelo piped up. "We just got talking and it slipped out." Then Michelangelo turned to face the girls. "One time I put hot sauce in his milk one morning,"
"Mikey!"
"I think that was the beginning of Raph being a hothead," Michelangelo continued ignoring Raphael's protest. Everyone laughed, except Raphael until Master Splinter dismissed the turtles from practice. Everyone filed into the living room, sitting down. Raphael sat on one couch between Raphielle and HexAdecimal while Lenni leaned in the arm of the couch. Mily sat one end of the couch next to TMNTPunker while Daydream and Danceingfae both dived for the easy chair.
"My chair I get to sit here," They both called.
"I'm the oldest," Danceingfae called.
"Yeah but I'm taller," Daydream said.
"No your as tall as me," Danceingfae objected and both girls paused.
"So then I'll be taller than you," Daydream figured and sat down while Danceingfae was distracted. Ziptango walked in from the kitchen with a popcorn bowl in her hands.
"What did I miss?" Ziptango asked. Raphielle told zip of what they learned about Raphael and Michelangelo making Ziptango laugh so hard she almost dropped the popcorn.
"Careful popcorn is fragile," Lenni said plucking the bowl from Ziptango.
"Sorry," Ziptango said smiling. Michelangelo was leaning on the back of the easy chair Daydream snagged, while Leonardo and Donatello sat on the floor. "So what did you two as youngsters?" Ziptango asked Leonardo and Donatello.
"I once told Master Splinter that his technique was wrong - he then gave me several lessons on why I was wrong to have made such a statement," Leonardo said.
"Leo how could you?" TMNTPunker faked surprise.
"How could I have not guessed?" Mily chimed.
"I was trying to rewire an electrical circuit without turning off the main circuit board," Donatello told everyone. "Let's say that shocking experience taught me a valuable lesson in preparing properly." Donatello finished with a smile.
"Why do I get a sense of de ja` vu, hearing that," Ziptango said thoughtfully. "Oh yeah because I've done it too." Ziptango snapped her fingers.
"Hearing ours, do you girls have some embarrassing moments you want to share?" Raphael asked with a smile.
"Which one, I have plenty," Danceingfae said.
"How about the dirtiest," Raphael said mischief glinting in his eye.
"Oh, okay, well one time I was running with a friend, we tied our shoelaces together, I tripped fell over and landed in a mud pile which…" Danceingfae paused as Daydream started to tap her shoulder.
"I don't think that's what Raph meant, Dance," HexAdecimal said then popped Raphael in the back of the head.
"Bad turtle!" Raphielle yelled.
"Hey I was just kidding," Raphael tried to defend himself, when the girls all dog piled onto him. "oomf, umff, offmmm," Raphael called from under the girls.
"What was that Raph, I can't hear you" TMNTPunker sang. Slowly the girls all got off of Raphael except Daydream who was still hitting him on the head with a pillow. Raphael caught the pillow and flipped daydream over his shoulder.
"Tell us some silly thing you did when you were younger," Raphael said bouncing Daydream on his shoulder.
"No," Daydream said between air gasp. "And I think I'm going to get sick." Raphael made a face and ran to the bathroom with Daydream. A moment later a scream was heard followed by splashing water. Then Raphael ran out laughing followed by a wet Daydream behind him. "I'm going to get you Raph!" Danceingfae and HexAdecimal offered to help Daydream dry off. She just trudged into her room to change.
~ Have an embarrassing moment you want to share? If you do e-mail it to me and I'll add it in, if you don't well… I can make something up :o)
