Chapter 13:Feelings

It was the first night Sam was going on patrol with the Turtles. Master Splinter had told her it would be good for her stealth training. She had been training privately with Master Splinter for the past month and he thought she was ready for some practice time alone with his sons to get to know them better.

But Sam had already gotten to know most of them pretty well over the past month especially Mikey. It was like the orange banded turtle needed her company or surly he would die. Mikey had become Sam's best friend. He was always there for her comforting her when her pills finally wore off. He made her laugh with all his jokes and stories. Mikey made Sam feel truly cared for and he didn't have to make a big fuss over her it was the little things he did that made her feel almost loved.

Sam was in Mikey's room getting ready for patrol. She slipped on her most comfortable black Adidas sweat suit and a pair of combat boots and began to arm herself with weapons. She slipped her kunai into her left boot, strapped her ninja-to on her back, and checked to make sure her tekken were on his wrist although she never took them off. She was putting her hair up into a ponytail, when she saw a shadow of a turtle in the doorway. "I'll be there in a minute Mikey" Sam said happily not turning around to see exactly which turtle it was.

"You're not going." A voice answered firmly.

Sam didn't even have to turn around to know who it was. It was the only turtle that made her blood boil, Leo. Even with her pills which were supposed to control her emotions she found herself especially irritated and angry when it came to dealing with the blue banded turtle. He was smug, cocky and self absorbed, reminded herself of her sister Sydney, but Leo was missing the need to have constant attention. In some ways Leo was like Sam, they both loved and hated constant solitude.

Sam turned around and saw Leo with his famous almost emotionless glare. Hiding behind Leo's emotionless stare was pure anger. Sam smirked she lived to make Leo angry. She tried anything to get into a fight with the over confident ninja. She wanted so bad to send him on his shell, showing him she wasn't to be messed with or treated like a stupid child which is how he treated her, therefore, Leo was avoided at all cost.

"Master Splinter said I had to go." Sam hissed.

Leo moved closer to her. "Well my brothers and I are too busy to babysit you" He almost growled.

'That condescending bastard!' Sam thought to herself. She felt the tekken on her wrist burn. She was fighting the urge to really fight him, but after their last little scuffle she ended up with a few bruises and so did Leo. Mikey made her promise she wouldn't get into another fight with Leo. Mikey had told her he didn't want her to get hurt. His baby blue orbs showed genuine compassion towards her she couldn't say no. She swallowed the lump in her throat and tried to calm herself down. 'I promised Michelangelo.'

She sighed and said calmly and evenly. "Leonardo, Master Splinter said I needed to go to work on my stealth training."

Leo laughed humorlessly."Like I said my brothers and I aren't babysitters."

Sam's was losing her temper and trying so hard not to start another fight with Leo. It was taking all the power she had to stop herself from reaching over and just knocking his lights out with one good strong hit to his jaw. Sam could have sworn that her tekken were giving her third degree burns. They locked eyes each fighting for dominance neither wanting to back down. They were both too proud for that. Sam decided that if she stayed any longer she would break her promise to Mikey and she refused to break her promise. If there was one thing Sam held high it was her honor and that meant keeping her word. So she stormed out of Mikey's room.

She didn't even bother using the stairs as she back flipped down from the second story to the ground floor. She ran towards the door. She was looking for a fight she had to get rid of all her anger. She almost made it to the lairs entrance, when a certain orange banded turtle stopped her. Mikey grabbed Sam by the waist and pulled her to him.

"What's wrong babe?" Mikey asked Sam, his voice filled with genuine concern.

Sam didn't dare look Mikey in the eyes. She answered him through a clenched jaw. "Ask fearless!" Then she tried to shake herself out of Mikey's firm hold on her. Usually Sam would have just melted inside being so close to him. Sam loved Mikey's touch, it was soft and gentle and set chills of pleasure down her spine. The truth was she had a huge crush on the joyful, energetic turtle, but Sam refused to tell Mikey her feelings in case he didn't feel the same way.

Sam fought out of Mikey's grasp and ran through the lairs entrance. She didn't know her way around the sewers and usually had Mikey to guide her through the labyrinth of tunnels that made up the New York sewage system. Sam honestly didn't care if she got lost anything to keep her away from Leo. After a while she finally made it to a ladder. She climbed up each rung and at the top was her way out, a manhole cover.

To say Mikey was angry was an understatement, he was livid. He felt his blood boil. Not even ten minutes ago he left Sam up in his room to change for patrol. She seemed happy to be going with them and see the city from their perspective. She had also told Mikey that she had been dying to get into a fight since Master Splinter forbid her from sparring with the others, but that was supposed to change after tonight.

Patrol was a test for Sam and if she passed it then she would be able to train with the rest of them and Mikey really wanted to see how she fought, sure he saw Sam and Leo go at it a few times but Mikey could tell that Sam was holding back. He wanted to see how she fought when she didn't need to restrain herself what kind of fighter she truly was. Sam was feisty and Mikey couldn't get enough of her.

Instead of confronting his oldest brother, Mikey went to go talk to Donnie. He had some questions about the way he's been feeling lately. Mikey felt sick, but the good kind of sick and he only felt it when he was around Sam. When Mikey was with her, his palms were sweaty, his heart raced, and his stomach felt queasy. Mikey didn't want anything from Sam only to be near her and make her happy. Because when she was happy Mikey thought that was when Sam was her true self, and the honest truth was Mikey loved Sam.

Sam to him was absolutely without a single doubt in his mind beautiful. But it wasn't just her outer beauty that attracted him to Sam it was her inner beauty too. Sam was compassionate Mikey didn't know too many girls who would want to hang out with a giant talking turtle, but Sam had told him. "Michelangelo, I do not care what you look like as long as you are yourself." Sam was also honest she never lied to Mikey and always kept her word. Sam was also an amazing baker, she had made him cakes, cookies, pies, you name it she made it. Mikey had told her that he would never let another baked good touch his lips unless it was made by her petite perfect hands. Sam was also affectionate, she didn't consciously know, but when Mikey and her were watching movies together or having one of their famous sleepovers, Sam would cuddle closer to Mikey and she never pulled away when he pulled her closer. He loved the feeling of Sam next to him. Her still golden brown tanned skin was so soft against him. He loved her sent of cherry blossoms and jasmine it really comforted him. And her body if Mikey were to say he didn't love to look at Sam's body he's be lying through his teeth.

Sam was petite. She had a small face with high cheek bones, big beautiful bluish green hazel eyes with flecks of gold and brown around her pupils. She had a dazzling smile that Mikey loved to see, with plump powder pink lips that had "kiss me" written all over them. Her hair was dark brown which fell past her shoulders and had fringed bangs that framed her face. Sam was still a golden brown from the summer, but her tan was fading the more time she spent at the lair, which was almost every day. Her body was athletic he had seen all the muscles, but as soon as Sam started her training with Master Splinter her muscles became more toned, and the little bit of extra weight she seemed to have when they first met seemed to vanish within a week revealing the very slender but curvy body Sam had. She didn't have much in the chest department B cups at the most, but she made up for it because Mikey had found as much as he hated seeing her go he loved watching her leave. Because not only was Sam blessed with thick thighs and toned caves, she had a big beautiful perky round behind.

Mikey really wanted to tell Sam how he felt, but he truly didn't know how to. So instead he settled with just getting to be around her because he was too scared of what she'd say. If he told her…..I Love You.

Sam was sitting on the fire escape with Ted clutched to her chest. It was around midnight and she had been home for the past couple hours. She was done being mad at Leo, but she still couldn't find peace because there was another turtle on her mind, Mikey. She was fighting with herself. Sam truly had feelings for Mikey but her mind would always fight with her heart. 'Be with him!' Her heart would scream at her, but her mind would not let her because it always told her, 'You're dangerous he could get hurt like Ben did.' And that's what stopped her from telling Mikey her true feeling the fact he could be killed just like her beloved.

But a part of Sam knew Mikey was different. He was a turtle with gorgeous sea foam green skin. She had thought his skin would be rough and scaled, but it was quite the opposite with the exception of his hands which where rough and calloused from training and hours of playing video games, his skin was soft almost baby smooth. He had a yellowish green carapace, and a yellow plastron. He had ear slits and a beak. He also was very humanized. He had rippling muscles and stood tall at six feet two inches. Mikey wasn't small by any means he was actually closer to the husky side, but he wasn't fat it was pure muscle. With the exception of Ben, Mikey was the most beautiful creature she had ever seen in her life.

Besides his outward appearance, Sam loved Mikey. The effervescent orange banded turtle made Sam forget about all her worries. Mikey made her truly happy, a feeling that she hadn't known in a long time. Sam couldn't lie and say she wasn't grieving anymore because she was. She never really stopped, but whenever she was with Mikey it was like most of pain just vanished. Mikey was also very cuddly Sam always would "accidently" snuggle herself closer into his plastron, and every time he would pull her closer she had to use all of her will power just to stop her heart from beating out of her chest. Mikey was an amazing cook, he was sensitive, he would never push Sam into things she didn't want to do or talk about topics that obviously bothered her, and he was a great fighter. Mikey might not have been as serious as his brothers, but Mikey was fast and his movements were so fluid like water. Sam had seen him when he was sparring with his brothers of course he never knew she was there, but she loved watching the raw power that he seemed to have naturally. Mikey could truly be a great warrior if he got serious about his training.

"You're such a fucking coward." Sam told herself. She hugged Ted even closer into her chest, snuggling her face into the bear breathing in Mikey's sent of skate board wax and pizza. She wanted so bad to tell Mikey…..I Love you, but Sam felt like telling him was like sending Mikey to his personal grave. She didn't even see what Mikey could see in a girl like her. Sam was eighty percent sure he would reject her.

Sam was too absorbed in her own thoughts she never even noticed the turtle who had plopped himself right down next to her, his amber eyes staring intently at her. Sam nearly jumped out of her skin when she finally saw him.

"Raph, you scared the shit out of me." Sam snapped at him.

Raph chuckled. "Sorry Sam."

Sam looked deep into Raph's amber eyes he was hiding something behind them. Usually he would not go look for after she had a fight with Leo, Mikey and Donnie usually did that. She was genuinely curious what the red banded turtle was doing sitting right next to her on the fire escape staring right into her golden orbs.

"Raph what are you doing here?"

Raph never broke his eyes from Sam's when a smirk crossed his face. "I was just checking on you Sammy." He answered her with a hint of teasing in his voice.

Sam tore her eyes from Raph's and looked away. She sighed. "I'm fine Raph. It's nothing."

Raph's eye ridges rose as if to say "oh really" but he didn't. Truly he wasn't up for comforting Sam. He was there to spend a little time with her, and to stare at her luscious body and pretty face in the moonlight. Raph knew Sam was attractive with her slender curvy body, thick muscular legs and magnificent perky behind. She also had gorgeous eyes. Sam made Raph burn with a desire he had never felt before. Raph only knew two things when it came to Sam: one he didn't want a relationship with her. Sam wasn't his type. And two he wanted his large forest green hands to touch all over Sam's body and have his beak kiss her plump little lips.

"Wanna find a good fight? The night is still young. And the city is crawling with scumbags" Raph said amusement clear in his voice.

Sam turned to look at him. A smile grew across her face. She nodded, and then went back through her window. When she came back outside, Sam had a ski mask in her hand. She pulled it over her face. She jumped down and landed gracefully twenty feet below the fire escape. Sam looked up to the fire escape to see a very shocked turtle looking down at her.

A smirk grew across her face. "Are you coming hot stuff?" Sam asked him with a giggle.

Raph smiled, jumped down and landed next to her. Raph was hoping they didn't find any good fights so maybe the two of them could find other ways of getting rid of their anger for that night.

So what's going to happen next? Will Sam and Mikey tell each other how they fell? Or will Sam and Raph get a little affectionate? Guess you're going to have to wait until next chapter. Read and Review.
