"So, April Marie O'Neil, will you marry me?"
April stiffened, frozen like ice. Where in the hell had this come from? And then, the guilt rushed over her, reaching to every limb. The guilt that, while he was out discovering how much he loved her, she was here. Having sex with someone else. Cheating on him. Casey had been out, discovering how much he wanted, needed her in his life, and she was here, seeing a vision that told her life without Casey is fine. Fantastic, even. She couldn't stop the tears that flowed down her cheeks, but they weren't the tears he wanted; not the tears he deserved. The tears shed were those of shame and guilt. She had never felt so despaired. And, before she even knew what she was saying, she responded.
"Yes."
Don froze, unable to move a single muscle. He had stood to go home (it was late, after all) when, through the open window, he heard Casey return. He had listened to the whole conversation. He heard the scuffling of feet and the ruffling of leaves - he presumed those were flowers - and when Casey popped the big question. He had been shocked and was probably wearing the same facial expression April was. He heard the pause before a sharp intake of breath. Then the answer.
Donny was in complete turmoil. He didn't want to believe that's what she said. He begged his ears to have deceived him, but he knew it was all useless. You can't change what you hear. Apparently, the night had meant absolutely nothing to her even though it meant so much to the purple clad turtle. His horrors had come true: he wasn't special to her. What she had said about wanting a guy like him was just to get him into bed. And he had fallen for it. He had dove right in like the idiot he wasn't supposed to be. What she did to him was twist his heart for her own liking and then throwing it down the meat grinder. Why was he such a fool?
Squeezing his eyes shut, he tried to stop the tears. He was glad his brothers weren't here to see his humiliation. Raph would have called him a wimp for crying and Mikey would probably make a joke to try and cheer him up but only end up making him feel worse. Leo would try to make him feel better, but Don would just feel even more humiliated crying in front of his leader. Wiping the tears from his face, he stood and started a very slow trek home.
When that vicious, lying word slipped from her mouth, April immediately wanted to take it back. However, before she could say anything, Casey's mouth had come and overtaken hers. She had to stop herself from bursting into a new fit of tears as he slipped his hands around her waist, pulling her closer. She didn't want to be here. She wanted him to leave. She wanted to eat breakfast before some popped up with a question of marriage. She wanted to be left alone. She wanted...she wanted...
Don.
