Chapter Nine
Please don't kill me! I know I updated slow this time!
My excuse(s)? I was updating my youtube, my internet was down at one point, and I was shopping.
As always, enjoy!
"Guys?" I asked, unable to open my eyes.
"We're here. Don't strain yourself though." I heard Donnie say. I tried to open my eyes, and succeded. I was now in a room, with Donnie and Gracie.
"Where's Leo? And Mikey?" I asked, panicky.
"Calm down and we'll tell you." Donnie said. I calmed down.
"Leo's meditating in his room." Gracie said.
"And Mikey's out looking for firewood." Donnie said.
"Someone get Leo for me." I said, using my powers to help me sit up.
"I will." Gracie said, then left to get Leo. Donnie looked at me.
"Thanks for saving our brother, Alex." Donnie said. "But you didn't have to."
"It's my duty to. My ninjitsu masters before Master Splinter always said protect yourself before anyone else. But I always saved another person before myself." I explained.
"You are such an inspiration." Donnie said. Then the door opened, and Leo walked in. I looked at Donnie.
"Can I talk to Leo alone please?" I asked.
"Yea. Sure." Donnie said. He walked out the door and closed it after him.
"Hey." Leo said. Hands behing his back.
"Hey!" I said, grinning.
"Thanks for... you know." Leo said.
"Your welcome!" I said happily.
"But you didn't have to do that." Leo said. "But why did you do it?"
I sighed. "My old ninjitsu masters always told me to save myself first, and others last." I said. "But that's not what's in my blood. What's in my blood is saving others before myself." I said.
"And what happened when you did that in front of you're masters?" Leo asked, now sitting on my bed, looking at me.
I sighed again. "They used to beat me for five minutes." I said.
"No way!" Leo said.
"Yep." I said, now disappointed I told him.
"I'm so sorry." Leo said.
'Exactly what I didnt want: sympathy.' I thought. I swung my feet over the bedside, then remembered that Zoe wanted to know who Leo liked.
"Can I ask you something Leo?" I asked.
"Sure. I mean, it's the least I can do after you saved me." Leo said smiling.
"Do you like any of my girls?" I asked. I saw Leo blush.
"Yea." Leo said.
"Who?" I asked.
"Zoe." Leo said.
"That's awesome!" I said.
"Really? How?" Leo asked, clearly confused.
"Zoe likes you too!" I exclaimed happily.
"Really?" Leo asked.
"Yea!" I answered.
"So, if I asked her out, you think she'd say yes?" Leo asked.
"Of course! Think I'm lying?" I gasped playfully. Leo chuckled as I giggled.
"So, should I?" Leo asked.
"Yea!" I said. Then I frowned.I hoped Leo didn't notice it, but, unfortunally, he did.
"What's wrong Alex?" He asked.
"It's just... what if I was wrong that Mikey was gonna ask me out?" I asked.
"Don't worry. Just be patient. He's gonna do it soon. Trust me." Leo said, placing a hand on my shoulder.
"Thanks for the confidence boost!" I exclaimed.
"No problem sis. By the way, nice turtle pjs." Leo said, chuckling at the comment. I looked down and saw I was wearing my turtle pajamas.
"Damn Gracie." I said. Leo chuckled some more before standing. I also stood.
"I'm gonna get changed. Tell everyone I'll be out there in a couple of minutes." I said.
"Okay." Leo said, then left the room, closing the door behind him.

A few minutes later, I was wearing my black hair in a side braid, and had on a yellow top like April's, and jeans, as well as my high-tops. When I reached the bottom, I saw Raph on the couch, sleeping. I walked over behind the couch and smirked.
"RAPHAEL!" I yelled. He suddenly woke up and fell off the couch.
"Not bad..." he said, standing while rubbing his head.
"Thanks!" I said. "Can I ask ya something?" I asked.
"Sure. What?" he asked.
"Do you like any of my girls?" I asked.
"Yea. Gracie. Why?" Raph said/asked.
"Ask her out." I said.
"Why?" Raph asked.
"Trust me. She'll say yes. She likes you." I said, before turning and walking to the kitchen, where Donnie was reading the newspaper. I walked in and saw him doing just that.
"Sup Donnie." I said, sitting.
"Hey Alex." He said, not looking at me.
"Can I ask ya somethin'?" I asked. He looked at me.
"Yea. Sure." Donnie answered.
"Do you like any of my girls?" I asked.
"Vanessa. Why?" he answered/asked.
"Ask her out. Trust me, she'll say yes. She likes you." I said, now standing. I turned and walked out. I walked out onto the front porch. I saw Mikey, walking towards the house with firewood. I used my powers, and transported the wood into the chair that was next to me, then transported next to Mikey. Of course that scared the hell outta him, and he fell onto his shell. I giigled.
"Mind helping me up?" He asked. I helped him up.
"Sorry. Didn't mean to scare ya!" I said, giggling.
"It's fine." Mikey said, chuckling. Then he turned serious. "Can I ask you something?"
"Sure. What?" I asked.
"Wanna go out?" he asked me.
Will Raph, Don, and Leo ask Gracie, Vanessa and Zoe out?
What will Alex say?
Hope I made the time up!
