Chapter 3:
I opened my eyes slowly adjusting to my surroundings but then something hits my nerves, a certain smell. I stiffen immediately feeling the bed shift behind me. I feel slight panic but then remember the day before… Damn. Raph and I… with that thought said hot head mumbled something in his sleep incoherent.
I tug at the chain and sigh "Hey, hey Raph wake up. I need to get up and start training."
He just waves his hand and starts to already work my patience, so I do the thing I know will get him up, nag him until he gets pissed and gets up.
"Hey Raph, would you get your shell up? I need to practice, and I wont stop practicing just because I'm tied up to you." he groaned and waved a hand at me. I got up and with one fellow swing I threw Raph against the wall both of us grunting. I rubbed my wrist as he stood and I smirked.
"Good now your up. Lets go." He growled but keeps his mouth shut. I smile and start tugging him towards the dojo. Ever since that night on the roof, Raphs had been a little... less voluntarily to fighting- well with me that is.
He still fights with Don and Mike, but not as much. I started walking faster when I felt a chill run up my spine telling me that someone had a few ideas in mind for me...
"Uh hey Leo, shouldn't we shower first...?" I glare at him from over my shoulder but keep walking ignoring my emerald skinned brother. I mumble
"Raphael, showering before training? Really? I know you're thick headed but still, even Mike would know better." At least I think he would. I remember last night... training had been well, let's just say all our styles are completely different. And it didn't help that the two level headed ones were tied to either the goof ball or the rebel. Juuuuust great.
I sigh mentally and hold back yelp feeling Raphs hand trail along my tail.
"R-Raphael! W-What are you d-d-doing?" I snap at him but my voice doesn't carry how embarrassed I am. Its times like these were I'm glad I can't blush. I smack his hand and glare at him with a heated face.
He grins and winks at me and in return I scowl 'Shell, stupid hot head...' then speak of the devil
"Aww whats 'ta matter babe?" I blink a few times and clear my throat and turned around catching him off guard.
"R-Raph... please don't call me that and keep YOUR hands to YOUR self, got it?" I start walking and he follows behind me but then starts walking along side me. I keep my eyes forward not wanting to look at my brothers mocking gaze.
I hear him snort and say "Sure thing, Fearless." I sigh and shake my head at the use of Old Nick name. Soon we approach the kitchen and the smell of pancakes and sausages fill the room. I look around and see Mike AND Don cooking.
Its not that Donny isn't a good cook or anything its just... well we'd rather live to our next birthday. "Oh no, I ain't eating what Donny makes. Probably goanna have some of those micro chips or something." I roll my eyes but smile warmly knowing that I fully agree with him.
We take our spots at the table but Raph again sits too close for comfort. I shift a bit farther but he holds the chain in his hand and keeps me next to him. He actually TUGS it making me move closer!
I keep a cold expression as Mike and Don serve me and Raph our plates "Dig in dudes! I made sure not to let Donny touch it!" He whispers the last part but even in a whisper they're still too close. In fact Dons behind him and taps his shoulder.
"What was that Mike?" Mikes smile drops and mock horror replaces it. Mike turns around with a cheesy grin and Don keeps a disapproving look and starts tapping his foot impatiently.
"Oooo D-Donny! H-Hey bro! Um, how l-long have you been s-s-standing there?" Don smirks and shakes his head while Raph and I start eating our pancakes while watching our two younger brothers have their little discussion.
"Hey Leo, 'dis is better than Masta Splinta's soap opera's ain't it?" I nod my head in agreement. We continue watching as Mike digs his grave deeper and deeper.
Then Master Splinter came in but Don and Mike didn't seem to notice, but Raph and I did. I looked at him while Raph continued to watch our bickering brothers, but we both say
"Good morning Master Splinter." I say not fully making eye contact.
"Morning Masta Splinta." I'm guessing Don and Mike heard us since they stopped talking and bowed as our Master came in closer.
They both stuttered "G-G-Good morning Master Splinter!" Master Splinter smiles warmly as his dark intense eyes scan over all of us, but slight confusion sets in. I look around and finally realize what confused our wise master.
It was most likely the fact that the two sons that always (or more than his eldest sons) were fighting, while the two that fight with each other more than he watches his Soaps, were actually well... er I guess calm.
But it's not like we were cuddling or throwing compliments at each other instead of fists. But none the less a quirky smile placed his furry lips. Raph still didn't bother to look up as Master Splinter said humbly
"Ah good morning my sons. Its nice to see you all up so early and that… most of you getting used to our bonding exercises. Now today, there will be no training, for today we shall spend a day off learning to fully adjust." I look at Master Splinter and feel a knot of fear and anxiety twist in my stomach. I take a quick glance at Raph and see he has a WHOLE lot planned. I start to eat again as Mike grins and says happily.
"Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet dudes! This is going to be awesome! Right Donny?" Mike turns to face our purple masked brother and, as if on cue, Don sighs and smiles warmly
"Sure Mike, just try to be able to sit still for 5 minutes when I go to work in my lab." Mike's smile turns into a small pout. He nods and keeps pouting as our Master chuckles heartily. I roll my shoulders and Don looks at me questioningly
"Hey Leo, you ok bro?" my incredibly smart brother asks, but this causes everyones eyes to fall on me. I smile slightly and laugh nervously.
"Haha, yeah Don, I'm fine. It was just… cramped sleeping last night." I slightly glare at a smirking Raph. I did sleep pretty bad last night due to us being chained together. I suggest that maybe we both sleep on the floor but he demanded that we sleep in bed… and my bed was made for one so I was pushed up against the wall that night, he didn't try a thing though.
I guess he didn't want to make it worse than it already was. I sighed and shook my head but then noticed everyone still watching me, well besides Mike and Master Splinter. Raph had an amused/smug expression while Don had a curious expression. I feel my face heat up and smile awkwardly
"Uh guys, I'm fine… really." Raph grins and looks back down at his mean and continues eating, while Don's gaze still lingers until Master Splinter clears his throat. We all look at him with our complete attention- while except Mike who's still playing with his sausages trying to make a small house.
"I have something to tell you all my sons, we shall be receiving a visitor sometime today, it shall be a surprise for you all." Don sends him a quizzical stare.
My thoughtful expression, Raph just shrugs and begins eating again, and Mike… well Mike keeps his concentration on his little sausage house. After a few moments of silence Master Splinter takes his cup of tea and announces
"I shall be in the living area watching my soaps. And none of you may leave the lair during this training exercise." We all groan but Master Splinter sends us a don't-question-your master look so we all keep quiet.
After he leaves I keep my eyes on my plate and eat quietly, while Raph starts giggling. I look at him from the corner of my eye and see he's snickering at Mike. Mike doesn't notice Raph yet but Don and I do. I raise a eye ridge and whisper
"What's so funny?" He looks at me and leans closer, his hot breath tickling my neck as he answers in a breathy voice
"I can't help but 'ta notice Mike loves sausages… a 'lil more than he should, don't cha think Leo?" I blink and shake my head at Raphs dirty joke. I whisper back in a low tone
"Raph, you really shouldn't be talking about Mike like that, after all you're the one who's gay, not Mike." Raph shrugs and keeps a indifferent look on his face.
"Yeah well, don't matter does it? Maybe Mike's a closet homo. Ya never really know these things oh Fearless Leader." I glare at him and we both stop talk when we hear Don say
"What are you two whispering about?" We both look up to see Don's curious gray eyes. I keep my expression calm and say in a natural tone
"Nothing, just some plans." Raph nods getting up taking both our plates. Don's eyes narrow and he nods. Raph looks at him as I get up then he smirks. Don looks away and at Mike who's already eating his sausage house. I look from Don to Raph and see that a secret conversation went on between them.
Before I could think of any possible explanations Raph tugs me closer almost making me hit his shell if I wasn't so well balanced. I send Raph a spiteful look but his smirk widens as he looks at something from the corner of his eye and then back to me.
I blink a few times to what my newly found perverted brother was up to. I looked at the direction he was and saw Don glaring at him. But when he saw me looking, he looked away quickly and his foggy gray eyes held inner turmoil. I moved past Raph to put my dishes in the sink, never taking my eyes off of my second youngest brother. Raph moves infront of my line of vision to Donny. I look him in the eye and raise a eye ridge
"Raph whats up? What did you do to Donny?" He smirks and looks over his shoulder to said purple clad ninja and then puts his dishes in the sink. He chuckles to his self while washing his and I start drying them. He lowers his voice so it's barely audible
"I think Donny over this is a bit jealous" He has a tinge of smugness in his voice. I pull back and look at him skeptically. I lean back in after making sure no one was watching and whispered quietly
"Why would Don be jealous? Just because I'm spending more time with you? He's never seemed like this before, why now? He doesn't think I picking favorites, does he? What did you tell him Raph?" Raph put his soapy hands up like I pointed a toy water gun at him (because of the playful smirk he had) and said in a still hushed tone
"Wow there, calm down Fearless, I ain't done nothing to Don. He ain't jealous of us- well kinda… more like he's jealous of me. I get 'ta…" Raph moves closer and I take a small step back dispite my self and stand my ground. I glare at him warningly and he ignores it and what he does surprises me and slightly worries me.
Raph pulls me into a hug and I squirm a bit. He wraps his arms around my shell and rests his chin on my shoulder. I feel my face heat up again and say in a voice that doesn't sound like mine
"Raph! L-Let go, I still have to finish drying the dishes!" He doesn't respond but I know his weakness, I go to the side of his shell and pinch the skin and he squeaks letting go immediately. He gives me a hateful glare and I just smirk. He looks past me and grins evily and I turn around seeing a furious Don who tugs Mike, causing him to almost choke on his sausage.
"Come on, I want to work in my lab." Theres bitterness in his voice, and I can't stand to see my little brother hurt. Mike protests but a glare from Don and he shuts up following obediently. I extend my hand and say in a soft voice
"Hey Don wait-" he sends me a glare but its not like I get scared… I just feel pity. I lower my hand and let him leave. I turn to face Raph and as soon as Dons lab door shuts (slams) I say
"Raph what the hell? What did you do to get Don so mad?" Raph grins wider and leans closer. I put my hands on his shoulders not wanting to take a chance. "Raph…" I warn but he wraps his arms around my waist and whispers back
"Yessssss Leo?" I put my mouth in a straight line and sigh. He takes that chance smashing his beak against mine. I gasp which is a bad move as he slides his tongue inside my mouth and pushes me against a counter pinning me. His tongue slides around mine and I can't help but moan. I shiver but push him away breathing heavily.
He licks his beak and winks. I feel a warmth in me, and some aching from the loss of his touch. I shake the feeling off and look at him with glazed over eyes. His fire like amber eyes have a glassy look to them there selves. I can tell that were both affected by what he just did, but I can control my self better.
Maybe I can use this to my advantage. I hold back a smirk and stand tall. I tug the chain and he comes closer almost tripping. I put a hand on his plastron the other on his thigh. He looks at my hand then to me with a lustful and confused look. I'm guessing he doesn't know about my true purpose and he doesn't want to question it.
I run it up and down his thigh and he wraps his arms around my neck, I allow my self to grin as he starts breathing hard. I lean closer and whisper in a husky tone
"Now Raph… if you behave like a good boy, I'll reward you. But if you act up…" I push him away and something that sounds like a whimper escapes his lips. I smirk wider and say quietly "So you got it? Lets get going Raphie, I still want to do my daily meditation, so you have to as well…" I move closer and he glares at me but I just narrow my eyes "got it, Raphie?"
He grudgingly nods and mumbles something about not calling him by our childhood nick name Raphie. I chuckle as we finish the dishes in silence. After we finish we walk to the dojo. I sit in my usual mat and Raph sits next to me. We get in our positions and it goes smoothly. That is… until we hear Mike scream in a very girlish way. We both open our eyes and look at each other.
"Was that…" Raph shrugs and we get up to go look for ourselves instead of sitting on our shells. When we get out there we see Mike holding his chest like he just had a heart attack and Don smiling kindly and bowing. Master Splinter is shaking hands with someone but we can't see them past the wall.
We walk in completely and I find myself smiling sincerely as well seeing my old friend Usagi. Raph rolls his eyes and comes along with his arms crossed and looking down.
"Ah Leonardo-san, Raphael-san, its nice to see you both! Leonardo-san its been a while hasn't it? How have you been?" I bow and so does he in respect. But Raph remains standing, I elbow his knee reminding him and he does so. As we both stand I answer
"It has, I've been well! Its really great to see you. Master Splinter…" I turn to face my Master and hes looking at me giving his full attention "Is this who you were talking about earlier? Our guest?" He smiles and nods.
"Yes, I know how you two are close. Consider it… a special gift my son. Usagi-San shall be here for the rest of the week. He will be staying in the spare room next to yours." I smile and turn back to my rabbit friend. He nods confirming it and I feel excitement and happiness.
"This is great, I mean to say I haven't really had anyone to talk about some of my new ninjutsus I've learned while away a few weeks ago." I say trying not to look at any of my other brothers. I hear Raph scoff and feel the chain being tugged slightly. Usagi chuckles and comes closer slinging a arm around my shoulders and we begin walking back to the dojo as he says
"I could tell you were meditating Leonardo-san, may I join you and your brother?" I nod feeling the chain tugged again. I glare at Raph and raise my eye ridges "Unless Raphael has a problem with that?" Raph growls and his eyes widen
"Naw, whatever I don't care…" He trails off and we sit down. Usagi sits on my left, Raph on my right so I'm in between them. Usagi-san sits thigh to thigh with me so I feel our breathing match. Through out the whole thing I feel Raphs angry aura. Why is he so angry? Why would he be angry at Usagi? Maybe he wanted to try and mess with me again.
Heh too bad Raphael. After a while Raph groans and stretches. I open one eye to watch him. He doesn't look mad anymore, just… tired. Tired and annoyed. He looks at me in the eye and asks in a board voice
"Leo, we've been meditating for hours, can we take a break and really train? Or at least watch TV or something?" I sigh calmly and open both eyes looking at Usagi-san who looks like he didn't hear a word Raph said. I stand and clear my throat gaining his attention.
"Usagi-san would you care to go over a few moves?" He nods and stands up rolling one shoulder at a time. He nods and says with a small smile
"Of course, but wont it be hard, you Father has already explained to me about why your… attached to each other but will you be able to with your brother draggin you down?" Raph tenses beside me and blurts out
"What was that? I ain't dragging no one down ya damn rabbit-" I smack a hand to cover his mouth and he growls. I look at Usagi apologetically but he seems slightly un fazed but when he looks at me his gaze is soft.
"Look Raph… Usagi-san didn't mean anything by it, so cool it." Usagi puts a hand on the wrist that's connected to the hand that's covering my hot head brother's mouth. I let go and Raph hisses. Usagi bows and says in a regretful voice
"I am sorry if I offended you in any way Raphael-san. Please do not be angry with me, I didn't mean anything by it." Raph clicks his tongue and mumbles whatever. I glare at him but feel my expression grow calm when Usagi stands and nudges his head over to the training part of our dojo.
I walk along side him with Raphael behind us. When we get in our stances Raph squeezes his way in between Usagi and me. I roll my eyes but my rabbit friend just sighs and looks down. We start off but Raph has a bit trouble following the moves. After we pause because Raph and my chain are mixed up Mike comes in with Don.
"Yo dudes! Watcha doing?" Before anyone could answer Don says in a cold tone "There doing the dragon dance stupid." Mike pouts but Don ignores it. I blink as to why my usually sweet and smart younger brother would act so cold to Mike. Usually there best friends, maybe being chained up is making them stir crazy around each other.
Mike pouts more but as if a light bulb went off I say in a friendly tone "Hey Don, Mike, why don't we all try it out? I mean we could all use practice right?" Raph snorts but Usagi claps his furry hands together.
"That is a excellent idea Leonardo-san! Come, you two must join!" Mike's smile is gone for a second but comes back with a full out grin. Don sighs and rolls his eyes but walks over to us. They go Usagi's right while Raph and I are in between them. We start off again and its like before, smoothly that is until I trip over Mike and Dons' chain.
They start to get tangled in my and Raphs chain and Usagi backs up but comes back in trying to help. I grab onto him and try to stand but Mike yelps and Raph hits him on the head. My grip slips as Mike hits me and I fall landing on Usagi. I hit my head at his chest and put my hands on either side of him. One knee falling between his legs, the other on his side. We both grunt when we land but since I land on him its nice and soft.
He grips me by my shoulders and when I look up his eyes are open and he's looking down at me. I feel my face heat up again thinking about how we must look… and I feel his gasp and push me off. I clack shells with Don who's foot is still tangled with the his chain. We stare at each other and I feel someone tap my shoulder. I turn and come face to face with Raph as he says in a spiteful and bitter tone
"See, that's why I don't like 'im, and that's how I know your gay, nice job Leo." I blink and see now that he thinks that Usagi and I were like that. And with the look everyones giving (including Usagi) I'll have to find a way to explain this delicately and carefully… I'm screwed.
To be continued
