I smiled at Leo, who didn't hesitate to smile right back how I missed it, the way he smiled warmly at me, each time he sent me on of his soft warm smiles it reassured me that he does care about me. Our brief happy moment was interrupted by Mikey's throat clearing, we both turned to see him with a sly grin on his face "so what where you saying earlier Leo to Ava?" he asked with a smirk "cus I don't think she caught it" I felt the heat come to my cheeks biting my lip I glanced at the other turtles' faces to see that they all had the same teasing smile, my eyes slowly drifted back to Leo who amazingly wasn't blushing, instead had a challenging grin on his face.
In the space of two seconds he came over to me and fused our lips together, in front of his family. My eyes popped wide open and I felt my cheeks burn but soon cooled down for everything seemed to fade away, as if reality only consisted of Leo and me.
Unfortunately the kiss didn't last for long slowly our lips parted we were left again staring at each other with a huge grin on each of our faces'. A throat clearing made us turn to face the guys again 'crap I forgot they were there' I mentally scolded myself. Mikey, Donnie and Raph each had their teasing face on, "aww" Mikey and Raph cooed causing me to blush and Donnie to laugh at me. "My sons" Splinter's voice caused everyone to freeze "enough, we must let Ava rest for I can sense that her spirit is drained" he ordered before walking to the door "you may continue your discussion with Leonardo outside" he had a sly smile on his face.
Leo's jaw dropped, the look on his face was just priceless, the guys started to laugh and make kissey faces at him on their way out leaving Leo alone with me. 'Great even Splinter wants to make fun of Leo and me' I smiled inwardly; I had to admit the whole situation was pretty funny. "Well this is… awkward" I smiled "yeah" he laughed nervously, he was getting tense so I motioned for him to sit down. I guessed that now was a good time to apologise to him as he sat down I let out a sigh, staring at the sheets I began to speak "Leo I … I just wanna say that I'm sorry" my tone was weak "Ava wha-" he started but I cut him off " I acted like a baby, I shouldn't have run off like that, I know you did the right thing in not telling me I'm just sorry" the last part came out like a whisper, I just felt so stupid and ashamed of the way I acted, I couldn't bring myself to look at Leo my eyes stayed planted on the bed sheets.
I heard the sound of a chair moving and the next thing I know Leo is standing in front of me, his shadow cast over me I felt so inferior when next to him, I felt the smooth, soft touch of his hand it cupped my cheek and slowly slid down to my chin and with little effort he tilted my chin until I was looking up at him, his eyes locking into mine, holding my gaze "Ava, don't be sorry it was my fault, the guys wanted to tell you but I- I was afraid how you would react the person to blame is me not you" his words soothed me, our eyes never left one another.
I smiled "Leo let's just say we're both to blame" he let out a soft chuckle and smiled " yeah I think that will do", I grinned as he leaned down and kissed my cheek, I let out a happy sigh "you always know how to make me feel better Leo" I smiled, he let out a laugh "yeah" he whispered before softly kissing my lips "now rest up, you need to regain your strength" his overprotective side was pitching in. I rolled my eyes "sure thing captain", Leo shook his head "sometimes I swear you are like Mikey's twin" I started to laugh as he continued shaking his head leaving me alone in his bedroom, slowly my eyelids dropped I felt sleep consume me and it was something I for once welcomed.
……..
Raph prov.
"Well, well, well Leo, never knew you'd be the first to get a babe" Mikey teased, I sniggered seeing the look on Leo's face, heck seeing him as red as a tomato would crack anyone up. Leo shot me a death glare, but it didn't shut me up heck I started to laugh even louder. Then I think he had enough of our foolin' around cus he pushed past Mikey and me and went to the dojo. "hey!, Leo what the shell's yer problem we were only foolin' around! Jeez!" I shouted after him, I felt my blood start to boil. When the teacher's pet didn't answer I let out a low growl and turned on my heel, Mikey and Donnie knew to stay out of my way, I grabbed my trench coat and fedora, quickly putting them on "uhh dude where are ya goin'?" Mikey nervously asked behind the couch, lucky for him I wasn't in the mood for chasin him "out" I growled "that OKAY with you Mikey!" I snapped, the dim wit quickly shook his head and I headed out through the sewers.
Grabbing my Nightwatcher bag I quickly made my way to the city level, within minutes I was on top of my favourite apartment building, it had a clear view of the city. I came here when I needed to think about stuff or when I'm really ticked off, like now. Putting on my suit I switched on the police radio and sat down. I knew what was wrong with me I just didn't want to admit it; I was jealous, jealous of Leo.
He was 'mister perfect', the 'teacher's pet' why did he have to get a relationship first? And he found a gal who accepted him; frustrated I punched the roof of the building. "as if I'd ever find anyone" I grumbled, if there actually was a gal who didn't hate the fact that I'm a frikkin turtle I don't exactly have good qualities to offer I mean I aint exactly calm, patient or any of that other stuff girls are into. I let out a sigh "I jus wish could find someone".
A sudden cry for help made me look down into an alley, a bunch of foot ninjas had cornered someone, I couldn't really make it out. Jumping down I got the dorks' attention they opened out and I got to see a girl, no one could see but my eyes actually started to widen, "dam she's pretty" I whispered, but quickly shook it off, "you pyjama wearin' punks are gonna get it da nite!".
