A/N: I still don't get why you people like this...Whatever...This chapter's a little bit better. Sort of. Not much. :P Anyway, I did get my friend to take over on here for me while I'm doing tech for the musical, so yeah.
to Heather: Uh...I would, but I don't even know their ages in these. I initially wrote them in a random order (day 29 was the first one, actually). I just kinda put them in what seemed like a good order, so...yeah. Sorry, hon! Oh, and the reason I don't like "Nosebleed" is because of what I had Don do. It fit with the story...but..
Donatello sighed to himself as he tried to read his book over the din his brothers were making. Why were they always making noise like that? He was able to sit with quietly for more than ten minutes. There actually had been several occasions where the others didn't know he was in a room thanks to how quietly he had walked in.
Suddenly Mikey was right next to him. Don sighed and scooted enough so that his brother wasn't in his personal space, but the smaller turtle just crawled closer.
"Mikey, please, leave me alone."
The younger turtle didn't though, and instead pounced on the purple-banded turtle and pulled him down to the ground.
"Guys! Whatever you're planning, it's not funny!
Of course, the others didn't agree with the genius and got mischievous grins on their faces.
The three of them had been having fun with their game, and decided that Don should join in.
Once their most distant brother was on the ground with them, Leo started by running his fingers against the sensitive skin between Don's carapace and plastron. If he noticed how his little brother tensed up, he gave no sign and smiled at Raph.
Raph smiled right back at his only older brother and started running his fingers up and down the soles of Don's feet, sometimes bringing a hand up to the back of his knee. The younger turtle kept attempting to kick the hothead, but his legs were pinned down by Leo, so it wasn't working very well.
Suddenly fingers were running around his neck. Darn it, now Mikey had joined in. Couldn't they leave him alone?
None of them are even aware of Don's yelling until Splinter comes in.
"What is going on here?" the ninja master asked, causing all the tickling to cease. The moment it did, Donatello wiggled out of his brothers' grips and ran to his room, slamming the door shut.
The other three were tempted to go after him, but the look on their father's face told them that they should answer his question first.
"W-We were playing..." Leo answered after several moments. "We decided to have Don join us..."
Splinter sighed to himself at his oldest son's answer. The three of them obviously had no malicious intent, they were just wanting their brother to join in their fun. How were they supposed to know the affect it would have on him?
"W-what happened to Donnie?" Mikey asked with his eyes brimming with tears.
"I am not quite sure, my sons. You all are very unique, but sometimes it seems that Donatello shows it in more ways."
A/N: I have some sort of sadistic pleasure with this chapter...is that bad? Hehe...this is my favorite up until the fourteenth...and that one's more of cuteness!
