Chapter 20 "Raph's Jealous"

It had been a month since both girls had ran to the lair to seek refuge. Jessi had been flirting with all the turtles. Sachi would get annoyed when Jessi would flirt with Leo. Leo was good and tried not to flirt back.

Jessi and Sachi continued with their classes but they would come back with one of the turtles. Leo and one of his brothers would stay close as they went to keep an eye on Sachi and Jessi.

"Leo, this is stupid! The foot has yet to attack them and we are here wasting our time here at college," said Raph.

"Ya know, it's easier to bring Donnie to this," said Leo.

"I still don't see what's so great about a human," said Raph.

Leo remained silent. He was not in the mood to put up with Raph's attitude for the day. He had a hard enough time sleeping because he wasn't use to sleeping with a girl in the same bed as him. They weren't doing anything they shouldn't do but they had issues with sharing a bed, like being too hot in the bed, blanket hogging and all the other delightful things that you fight about when you sleep with someone else.

"I guess the sex is really good," said Raph.

Leo pounced on his brother. Raph was not prepared for Leo to attack him. He was slightly nervous when he realized that Leo was actually holding a dagger to his throat.

"I don't know what you're trying to accomplish, Raph, I have never done this before but I'm telling you now, don't you ever say anything like that about Sachi! I love her but we have not done anything that you suggest. Get use to the idea of her being around again, I do intend to marry her and she will be my wife and your sister-in-law," said Leo, darkly.

Leo got off Raph as he put his dagger away. He was more than annoyed with Raph. He had no idea what his problem was. He didn't seem to care.

"Leo, could I remind you that Sachi is Shredder's daughter! You would think that it's forbidden that you could love her. I mean, Shredder will be your father-in-law, the man you have tried to kill," yelled Raph.

"Raph, shut the hell up! I don't know what your problem is. You've been like this ever since Jessi came here. What's your problem? Are you jealous?" argued Leo.

Raph stopped. He thought about it for a second. Sure, he was jealous. Leo had a girl and was going to marry her. He had no one and the only other girl who he had felt close to was April but she was going to be marrying Casey soon.

"You wanna know the truth? Yes, I'm jealous! Is that what you wanna hear? You've got the girl! What about me? The only girl I've ever felt close to was April and will she ever want me? No! She's going for Casey, my best friend. I know that I will probably never meet another girl. You meet a girl and she's the daughter of our enemy and the one you're going to spend your life with. There, does that answer your question?" yelled Raph.

Leo froze. Raph was right in some ways. It was supposed to be forbidden that he could love the daughter of their enemy. He knew what he wanted and Master Splinter had already agreed to it. He started to wonder if Raph would ever find a girl but he was sure that Raph would. After all, Raph would probably run into someone who was in trouble when he roamed the streets.

Soon, Sachi and Jessi met them in the little ally near the campus. Sachi ran over to Leo and kissed him. Leo was just glad to hold her for a while after the argument with Raph. The four of them ran back to the lair to seek the refuge they had been in for over a month.
