"Where did you get the cool cape D?" Mikey plops down next to me
"April made it for me." I said and April got up and went into the kitchen.
"Oooooooooo!" Mikey gets all up in my face
"Get off me Mikey." I shove his face away from mine and he falls on his back.
"Here D, it's an ice pack." April returned from the kitchen and handed me an ice pack.
"Thanks April." My voice cracked
"Why do you need that?" Mikey asked as he sat back up
"Well, Donnie stopped a mugger that took my computer bag but then some bounty hunter interfered, he got my bag back but as he tried to leave the guy that took my bag tripped him and he fell and scraped his knee. But he still got away before they saw him." April explained to him before I could say anything.
"Yah well… OOWW!" I screamed as April gently put the ice pack on my knee.
"Sorry D."
"It's ok April." I said. As I look into April's eyes I feel butterflies in my stomach.
Crunch crunch crunch, Mikey is eating popcorn as he stared at us from three inches away.
"MIKEY!" I stood up and started going after him, but could barely move my leg so I stopped, April put her arm around me and took me back to my lab. I sat down and heard a loud crack of thunder. April looked up and said
"Well, I guess I'm here for the night." she walked out of my lab as she tapped the glowing screen of her t-phone. The floor of my lab was damp from the rain and there was constant thunder. I turned on my t.v. to see what was happening at star labs and opened a grate that was hiding a window to the surface and saw the pouring rain. As I listened to the the broadcast from star labs I opened a drawer on my desk and pulled out a paper with a newspaper print on it. I walked over to my rolly map covering a cork board and rolled up the map. On the cork board was all the evidence from April's mom's murder. (there wasn't much)
I pinned the newspaper clipping to the board. Then I walked over to the window and noticed it was letting in even more water so I started to close it.
