Okay! I hoped you liked the last chapter…some emotion shown in there! If you guys noticed, none of Mikey's brothers came to comfort him, so April, like her loving, nice, kind-hearted self, came to the rescue! Oh and before I forget, I had some spelling errors, stupid auto correct…Thanks for catching them for me! :)
So in the next few chapters, I'm warning you all…there will be some cussing, and fighting, and crying! But I'm not heartless, and I promise I will put some touching/heartwarming things in here as well! Enjoy!
(Night before…)
Donnie's POV:
"Donnie, go get Mikey up. It's time for practice." Leo said to me as he went into the kitchen to grab some tea.
I nod, and walk over to Mikey's room.
I knock.
"Mikey. Wake up, it's time for practice." I say in a stern voice, in case Mikey thought I was joking around. I waited for him to open the door, but it never opened.
'He still must be asleep.' I think to myself as I open the door.
"Mikey! Get u-"I freeze, and my eyes widen at what I laid my eyes on.
Suddenly I get angry, and slam the door, for sure waking the two up from their slumber. I storm back into the kitchen, and munch angrily on an orange.
Apparently, Leo and Raph noticed my anger, and looked at me with questionable faces.
"Uh, Donnie?" Leo asks, "Is everything alright?"
I rip the orange peel back and start peeling it into sections. "I don't know." I say with a bit of sarcasm.
I bite into my orange and say with one side my mouth chewing my orange, "Why don't you ask April and Mikey?"
Raph and Leo still held that confused look on their faces, and then they walked towards Mikey's room.
Leo's POV:
Raph and I walk towards Mikey's room.
"What do you think made Donnie so mad?" Raph question while we were standing outside of the door.
I simply shrug, and reply honestly, "I think Mike's still mad about him not getting any pizza last night, and him and April were talking it out, supposedly making Don mad, and or jealous? And after the fight they had, I'd get angry too…"
"Mikey had it comin' Leo. He needs to grow up-"
I stop Raph for a second.
"Do you hear that? It's coming from Mikey's room." I whisper.
Raph shuts his mouth, and listens in, leaning his ear against the wall. Raph's eye brows jump and his eyes widen.
"Is that-Is that moaning?" He asks perplexed.
I look at him in confusion, "Raph. Why would April and Mikey be moaning? Unless-"My eyes widen in shock, followed by Raph gasping.
"Mikey would never!" I say as the possibility of that actually occurring set inside of me.
"Only one way to find out." Raph says as he swings open Mikey's door, and looks inside.
I come in after him, and see Mikey and April on the floor, Mikey on bottom, and April on top of him.
Mikey was moaning, and rubbing his head like it hurt or something, while April was groaning.
"Mikey!" Raph says, as both him and me; rush over to separate the two.
I help April up, "Please, please, PLEASE, tell me you used protection! Wait-scratch that! Tell me other than you two sleeping in the same bed; tell me you didn't do anything OTHER than sleep!"
Mikey's and April's eyes widen in shock, and they both start shouting different sentences;
"WHAT? I didn't sleep with Mikey!"
"EWW! DUDES!"
"I don't even LIKE Mikey that way!"
"I didn't touch April!"
"All we did was sleep!"
"Wait-what's protection?"
"Enough!" I finally interrupt. I turn to Mikey, "And Mikey, you don't need to know what that means yet!" Raph opens the door, and leads April out.
"Master Splinter called for us to meditate in the dojo in five. Don't be late Mikey." I say in a stern voice.
I walk out of the room, and go straight towards the dojo, not wanting to be late.
"Ouch. Donnie! Did you have to go so ruff on me like that?" Mikey complained as he rubbed his head in pain.
During sparring this morning, Donnie and Mikey were fighting it out, and Donnie went a little over board in my opinion, and kept smacking Mikey in the head, until finally Master Splinter called it a day.
Donnie only grunts, and heads to his lab, opening his lab doors with quite a bit of force.
"Sheesh! You're starting to act like Raph when he's angry!" Mikey says with a grin, obviously trying to make Don smile.
Raph whirls on Mike, "Hey! Watch it you bone head!"
Mikey only sticks his tongue out at him, and turns back to Donnie, still seeing that glare on his face.
"Do you think he's mad at me?" Mikey whispers out of the side of his mouth to me. I roll my eyes,
"No. He's happy!" I say back with some sarcasm and join Raph, watching some TV.
Mikey frowns and crosses his arms. "Bros! You guys are so lame! Cheer up!"
No one replies to Mikey, and he just shrugs his shoulders, and walks towards the TV with a smile.
"Hey! Move it shell brain! We're watching somethin' here!" Raph barks, motioning his hand to move out the way.
"I know something that'll cheer you bros right up!" Mikey shouts, followed by an even larger yell;
"DANCE PARTY!"
All three of us turtles groan as Mikey starts nodding his head,
"One!"
Raph, Don, and I all exchange a look.
"Two!"
We all nod, and silently get up and leave.
As we all head out the lair, we hear Mikey's voice from a distance, "Three!"
Mikey's POV:
I open my eyes to see an empty room.
"Wha-Guys?" I look around, and all I see are empty seats, and a quiet lair.
I blink a few times in attempt to wipe away the tears and sadness mixed with hurt, then my anger starts to settle in.
I clench my fists and give out a strong shout, and storm back to my room, slamming the door behind me.
'Why do they hate me so much?' I thought to myself as I sat on my bed, frowning.
'I try to cheer them up and all I get is a load of…of…'
'Say it.' A tiny voice says in the back of my mind.
"What?"I whisper, placing my hand on my head completely confused.
'They don't love you. They don't care what you do! As long as you stay out the way! You're stupid! A numbskull! You're nothing!' The voice shouts.
I clutch my head and drop to my knees, tears already starting to pour down my face.
"N-No! It's not true! T-They do-"
"Stop being so naïve Michangelo! You heard them all scream at you during the battle with the Purple Dragons! You call that 'love'? You and I BOTH felt the anger, the annoyance that was radiating off of our brother Donatello when he was beating us during our sparring matches this morning!'
"No…" I whisper, "No, they care! They care!"
"Calling us all these names, hitting us, calling us WEAK. Is that caring? That's what you call CARING?"
"Stop!" I cry harder, as I realize that this little voice is actually making sense. It's entirely true!
"Let it out. Let it ALL out."
"Gah!" I suddenly release burst of anger and back hand swing my desk, causing all my comic books, and action figures to go scattering across the floor, or some hitting the walls.
I stand there breathing heavily, but a strange feeling is undeniable.
I loved it.
Loved the way I destroyed something.
I showed it. I was no longer the weak one.
I will not allow my brothers to see me as their weak little Mikey.
I'll show them.
I smile.
Here comes the real Michangelo.
OKAY! There's chapter three. Sorry it took me so long to update. School, and all this other stuff! Anyways, hoped you enjoyed! Remember, I'm always open to new ideas!
