[u][b]TMNT-something has never changed[/b][/u] [u]Chapter 1: Confused[/u] [u]Leo's POV[/u] The morning didn't start so well. Don't know why but I didn't want to wake up... That's why I was late from school. In the afternoon, I was late from the dojo too... When I got there I was shocked. The master hadn't been there. Luckly, Mikey and Donnie weren't late the first time... Yes, the three of us are Raph's students. Don is in the age as I. He is a genious. Mike is the youngest, fourteen years old. He is the most flexible and the fastest student but the least smart... ... After a half an hour Raph arrived. "At last!" the guys whispered. The master looked so tired. I saw sweat that was running down on his forehead. I was sure he rushed. Unfortunately, he was frustrated during the training. 'What have happend to him..?' I thought. ... When the others left I wanted to talk to him. "Sensē?" he didn't answer. He was thinking hard. "Sensē?" "SENSĒ!?" I shouted. That surprised me. I had never shouted to him... The master was frightend."...So-sorry...I... You had better to leave now..." "...Hai" Actually, I didn't want to leave so I was hiding behind the room's double door while he was sitting and thinking about something important. There was a slit between the doors so I could watch him. ... He was sitting and watching down for minutes. 'What's he thinking about..?' I was thinking when I accidentally hit the door then I fell on the floor. He realised it. I couldn't move because of the shock that I felt in the moment. Suddenly, the door opened. I felt my heart beating in my throat. He looked at me questioningly but a moment later he started chuckle. I was so embarrassed! After a minute he helped me to stand up then led me in the room. 'He-he's holding my hand...His is so soft...' I flushed. Luckly, he didn't see... Inside he let off my hand and sat down on the tatami. I sat down in front of him. "Soo...Why are you here yet..?" he asked. "I-I just wonder why you are frustrated... I really would like to know...is this because of me..?" ... "You wouldn't understand..." "What if I would?" "If you knew the truth..." he whispered under his nose. 'What..? What truth..? I don't want to see him like this. He's always kind, patient, responsible...He's the best teacher ever...I really do not want to loose him... I must find out what the 'truth' is...to help him...' Long silence... [u]Raph's POV[/u] '...I love you that's the truth...DAMN IT! AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN! I CAN'T THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE..! He is so wonderful...I don't want to hurt him but I can't ignore my feelings ...' I was thinking when I caught his glimpse. 'Those eyes...' "What is it?" he asked. I was startled. "...Nothing..." "What is this about, actually?" He was annoyingly curious... *Sigh*"Look kid, you shouldn't worry about me. I'm fine. You should take care of yourself and school." "But sensē...I know something is wrong." "IT'S NOT YOUR BUSINESS! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE AND GO HOME!" I shouted. That scared him. "Ha-hai..." he said and stood up then ran off. 'I can't believe it! I scared him away forever! DAMN IT! I'M SO STUPID!' ... I couldn't sleep well that night. 'I must ask his forgiveness,' I thought. That was the only thing I could think about. Luckyly, about at midnight I aslept. Unfortunately, I had a horryble nightmare. [u]The dream[/u] Everything is dark. A grey guy shows up then he's coming closer and closer to me. He points at a room. Like he wants me to go there. I go to the door. Suddenly, he disappears. Inside the strange room all of the walls, the floor and the furniture are dark. A moment later I realise a bed wich is lighter than the other stuff. Someone is liing on it. "NO..! It...It can't be..! Leo! What have happend to him..? Why is he crying..?" Somebody grabs him from behind and kiss his neck. [u]End dream[/u] "NOOO! LEO!" I cried and woke up. I sat up in disbelief. 'My dear Leo. Honey, I will protect you from everything I can. That's the only way I can show you how much I love you...but you shouldn't know...no one should know it...because nobody would understand...' I was thinking for minutes when I got up from my bed and went down to the kitchen for a glass of water. It didn't help a lot... The dream ruined all the night... [u]Don's POV[/u] The time was about 11.50 when Leo arrived. "At long last!" I said to him. "Where have you been?" "Nowhere..." he answered. "Leo, what happend?" Mikey asked. "Nothing..." he rushed into his room. "Donnie, do you know what his problem is?" "How the hell should I know!" "Alright, alright. Don't need to cut off my head. Anyway, what about the master? Do you think he'll be fine for tomorrow." "I do not know, Mikey." "I wanna help him but I don't know how. Can you help me, please," he begged. "No. If he needs help he'll tell us." "But..." "No is no!" I said angryly. "What about Leo? We can help him, can't we?" "I think we should let him to cool off." "Then, do you have any plans for tonight?" "Of course. I'm sure you'll enjoy it." I said pridefully. "Yeah!" he said happily."I'm so excited. Tell me what's it." "No." "Pleeasse," he begged. I chuckled. "No. It's surprise," I smiled. [b]TBC[/b]
