I was sitting on the couch with April when I heard someone shout "Who touched my stuff!?" I was about to get up when April stopped me. She may seem fragile but her grip was like iron. "Relax, it's probably Raph." I looked back to where the sound came from. "But, it kinda sounded like a girl." "Trust me on this one." I looked into April's blue eyes. "Alright," I said as I sat myself down. We continued to watch the hockey game. I jerked up as I watched the game. "C'mon! That was the perfect shot!"
I looked over at April to find her crossing her arms and rolling her eyes. "What," I said, "Hockey is my life." I heard a door slam loudly. I decided to check it out. Again April stopped me. "Don't," she said quietly. I shook her grip off. "What are you hiding from me Red?" I ran off to where the sound came from before April could stop me. I tried to remember where exactly it came from. I walked down the hallway to the turtle's rooms and stopped by the bathroom. I could see light coming from underneath the door.
Finally it opened. I expected Raph might be angry or something because whenever he was he usually splashed his face with water, but this wasn't Raph. It was a girl. She was wearing a black shirt that was too big for her. Her mouth was open but nothing came out. It took me a moment to realize that it was Cori Faliva from school. "Cori?" "Yeah, uh, what are you doing here?" She was trying to sound like this was normal but I knew better. "What am I doing here? What are you doing here? You know about the turtles!"
Cori was trying to play it cool but she was horrible at it. She smiled widely as she said "Turtles? What turtles?" She held out her arm to lean on the door frame but missed and fell onto the floor. I caught her just before she hit the ground. I tried to help her up but she pushed me away. She looked at me in horror but then she sighed in relief. April came over and looked at us. She glared at me. "What?" She took Cori's hand and pulled her into the hallway.
"You shouldn't have nosed around in someone's business." "I'm sorry I was worried for my friends." "Friend you wouldn't have cared at all if it was Donnie or Mikey. Not even Leo. All you care about is Raph." I couldn't believe April. She never yelled at me like that before. "Is this what you're upset about? You're just jealous that I get to hang out with Raph." By now we were both shouting at the top of our lungs. Mikey, Raph, and Leo poked their heads into the hallway but didn't intervene. Why would they? This isn't their business.
"I'm not jealous," April shouted. I looked over to Cori for help. She looked pale. "What are you then? Do you just not like me?" "No it's not that you idiot!" By now Donnie had joined his brothers in the hallway. He opened his mouth to say something but never did. "Then what is it?" "Like you would understand. The point is you should have listened to me." "Oh, I'm sorry my majesty. Would you like me to polish your shoes as well?" "I wish you weren't so, so…" "So what? You know what, I don't care!" I stormed off past Mikey and Leo and Donnie. "C'mon Raph, I need to blow off some steam." Raph hesitated but then followed. I heard April mutter something but I didn't care. I'll never care.
