Chapter 5

I slowly let go of Donnie, I try to shake the frigidness off but it was proving to be difficult. Donnie proceeded to shut the window and noticed in the reflection of the glass of me holding myself.

"Hey, where is your bathroom?"

I looked over at him with a puzzled expression, guess turtle men need to go do their business as well.

"It's uh…down the hall, next door on your right."

He proceeds to walk pass me as I sat down on the bed. I took the moment to really try to absorb everything that has happened the past few days. A sewer lair? Human-sized turtles? Ninja turtles at that! Also…that creep from the alley. I rather not think about it...but I have to deal with it eventually. Soon, I heard a rush of water coming from the bathroom. What is he doing? The door is even open and I can see his shadow dancing on the wall. Then, footsteps. Donnie came back in the room without saying anything and took me by the hand. What is he up to? He brings me into the bathroom and I see the tub being filled with growing suds.

"I figured that your body temperature needs to be adjusted so I drew you a hot bath. I made sure the water is at the perfect heat level, not too hot but at the right temperature that it will not hit lukewarm for about a hour. I also took the liberty of adding relaxing bath soap, lavender, to help ease any pains you might be feeling."

This was so sweet. I have never had someone do this for me before, I wonder why he is being so nice. I have not known him for very long but it seems slightly out of character. I do feel very stiff, this is exactly what I needed. My ankle did feel a bit better but it was a bit sensitive to the touch. I had to sit once again on the side of the tub.

"Thank you, Donatello, this is very considerate. This is what just what I needed. Do you mind doing me one favor though?"

I looked away shyly. I was embarrassed to even ask, I have barely known this guy but for some reason, I trust him fully.

"What is it? Anything for my patient!"

"I was hoping that you could help me take this outfit off? I am a bit too stiff to bend and reach without hurting…"

Donnie paused and looked at me for a moment, I think he was about to blow a gasket from my request. Even though his skin is dark green, I can see his face go red. Soon he turned around from me to try to calm down. I chuckled a bit to myself with how cute he was reacting. My request was kind of unexpected and possibly not appropriate but I need the assistance.

"I am sorry! I did not mean to make you uncomfortable, I can do it my-"

"WAIT! Cough. I mean wait, I can and will help. You just threw me off is all, let's start with your shoes."

He slowly bends down on one knee and gestures me to place my foot on his other knee. I looked down and watched him in silence. He was moving slowly with my sprained foot. I felt his hands gently caress my ankle as she slowly pulled the shoe off. I could honestly live in this moment forever. He looks up at me and I could swear I could see a slight smile. His hand glides up my calf and starts to slightly massage it. You will get no complaints from me. Perhaps he feels bad about what happened to me in the alley. I truly am grateful that he is the one that found me.

"I hope you do not mind, I am well aware how this may seem but trust me this is all professional!"

"It's ok Donatello, I know."

"Please, you can call me Don, Donnie or Dee. 'Donatello' sounds so old and stiff coming from you.

"Well, I really like your name, it is very unique."

"Yeah, I suppose I could have a basic name like 'Y/N'."

My foot made contact with his chin. He threw his head back and rubbed where I made contact in agitation.

"Geez! I was just joking! You sure have a temper don't you?! Who reacts like that?!"

"You are right, I am sorry."

I mockingly apologized and let him continue to take the other shoe off, he was a bit less gentle this time but that is fine. He proceeded to take my arm wrappings off with ease and my belt wrapping. All that was left was my top and bottoms. We both started to slightly blush at the realization that I was about to be fully exposed. I turned away from him and proceeded to raise my arms.

"Um, what are you doing?"

"What do you mean? I am waiting for you to help take off my shirt. Did you think I was going to show you my breasts?!"

Donnie shakes his head nervously and starts rambling out of embarrassment. I quickly brought him back to earth.

"Will you stop and get your mind right?! The sooner we do this, the sooner you can go chill out!"

He promptly pulled himself together and began lifting my top, slow exposing my back. I can feel the tips of his fingers grazing my sides, all the way to the tip of my hands. I quickly held my chest to avoid him seeing anything, I have not even gotten in the bath yet but my body was starting to heat up from this situation. There is only one garment left to remove and he had to do it himself. We felt the awkward tension in silence but he knew what he had to do. He placed his hands on my hips and slowly started to pull down my pants. I could swear I felt his hands purposely grazing my hips and thighs, as if he wanted to feel me. My backside and panties were completely visible. I had just realized that I was wearing a thong, how more lewd could this possibly be?! Then, I heard a small whisper escape his lips.

"Nice color."

Nice color? I looked down and noticed they were the color to his shade of purple, because of course they happened to be his signature hue. I tried to pretend to not notice his comment and politely gestured him to leave. I could take care of the rest of this myself. He nodded and left without saying another word and proceeded to shut the door. I slid down my panties and eased myself into the water, enjoying the warm liquid as it embraced my body. Just like he did earlier. I closed my eyes and just took a moment for myself, processing all of the recent events and stirred up feelings I am developing. This is not right, I cannot be feeling this way. I don't even know much about him but I want to know what his favorite music is, his favorite foods, books, movies, everything. This cannot be just lust if I want to know more about him. He is by far the most interesting person I have met since leaving home. I suppose being a human-turtle gives you brownie points in that department.

SMASH!

A loud noise came from my living room, it jolted me out of my thought process. I called out to Donnie and I did not hear an answer. I was instantly scared. I quickly grabbed a towel and while I was dripping wet, I slowly made my way to the living room. I called out for Donnie once more but I was hearing noises instead. My body was lightly shaking in fear, all I could think about was that assaulter. He couldn't have found me right?! Donnie was supposed to protect me for the night! As soon as I made it to the edge of the wall that connected the living room, I took a deep breath and put on a brave face. I thought I could maybe scare them away. I quickly turned the corner to face the assailant.
