  "writing": "\tA noise from the kitchen told Mikey he wasn’t the first one to get up this morning.  He had slept very little the night before, even after a three hour run, and he wasn’t in the mood to face his brothers.  Giving up on trying to sleep and rising so early was supposed to guarantee that he had the kitchen to himself.\n\n\tMikey stopped and debated on going back upstairs.  He could always just wait until someone called him down to practice and eat his breakfast afterwards, knowing that no one would bother him then.\n\n\tSetting his shoulders, Mikey decided against that idea.  He was not going to go through the rest of his life feeling out of place and uncomfortable in his own home.  Striving to keep his expression completely neutral, Mikey strode into the kitchen.\n\n\tHe almost sighed with relief when he saw Leo.  Mikey amended his earlier thought; he wasn’t in the mood to face Raph or Don, but so far Leo hadn’t treated him any differently than normal.  Normal was good.\n\n\tLeo was just pouring a cup of tea when Mikey walked in.  One look at his younger brother’s face told him that Mikey hadn’t slept much.  He could also see the worry in Mikey’s normally shining blue eyes; they were unnaturally dull this morning.\n\n\t“Good morning, Mikey,” Leo said, taking a sip from his cup.\n\n\t“Humph, I’m sure it is for somebody,” Mikey mumbled.  Opening the refrigerator, he pulled out the carton of orange juice and found a clean glass to pour some into.\n\n\t“You went out last night,” Leo said mildly.\n\n\tMikey glanced at him over his glass, trying to gauge if Leo was gearing up to begin a lecture.  He relaxed a little when he saw that his brother had turned away from him to dig for something under the sink.\n\n\t“Just for a run in the sewers,” Mikey said.  “I thought about hitting the rooftops, but after you saw the Foot out there looking for us, I decided to keep it on the down low.”\n\n\t“If that means you decided to be discreet then I think you showed a great deal of common sense,” Leo said with a laugh.\n\n\t“I was kinda hoping it would tire me out,” Mikey admitted.\n\n\tLeo stood up with a wash cloth in his hand and tipped his head to the side slightly as he studied Mikey.\n\n\t“Did you get any sleep bro’?” Leo asked.\n\n\tMikey shrugged.  “Not much,” he said.\n\n\tTurning towards the sink, Leo turned the water on and let it get warm before wetting the cloth.\n\n\t“We’ll try a little meditation later and see if that helps your sleeplessness,” Leo said.\n\n\t“Dude!  I shouldn’t be punished ‘cause I can’t sleep,” Mikey protested good naturedly.\n\n\tLeo wrung the excess water out of the cloth and turned to smile at his brother.\n\n\t“You usually fall asleep during meditation anyway, Michelangelo,” Leo said.  “Turn around.”\n\n\tMikey did a double take, shifting his eyes from Leo’s face to the wash cloth bunched up in his hand.\n\n\t“What are you doing, Leo?” Mikey asked.\n\n\t“Turn,” Leo said again, gesturing with one hand.  As Mikey slowly did as instructed, Leo said, “Do you remember where all you went last night?”\n\n\t“Not really,” Mikey admitted.  He felt pressure against his carapace as Leo pressed the cloth to it.\n\n\t“You got something on your shell,” Leo said.  “Some kind of ground in dirt.”\n\n\t“Oh.”  Mikey tried to recall all of the tunnels he had run through, remembering that in several places he’d stirred up dust and in others he’d gone into mud.  He’d rinsed off before crawling into bed though.\n\n\t“It’s trapped in the grooves,” Leo told him.  As he began scrubbing between Mikey’s scutes, he asked, “Want to talk about anything?”\n\n\tMikey thought about that question.  It was completely open ended; he could say no and he was pretty sure Leo would drop the subject.  But the press of that cloth was rubbing into sensitive areas of his carapace and Mikey was starting to feel pretty relaxed.\n\n\t“Is Donny really mad at me?” Mikey finally asked.\n\n\t“He isn’t mad at you at all,” Leo answered.  “He’s mostly upset with himself for placing you in an awkward situation.  Don’s also feeling a little guilty for allowing Raph to see that he was disturbed.  Raph is sometimes overprotective of Donatello.”\n\n\t“Yeah, he told me that last night,” Mikey said.\n\n\tLeo paused for a moment as he let those words soak in and then continued to work on Mikey’s shell.\n\n\t“I told Raph not to bother you again,” Leo said.\n\n\tMikey appreciated that Leo hadn’t asked about their conversation.  He left it up to Mikey as to whether the youngest brother wanted to discuss it.\n\n\t“He didn’t bother me,” Mikey said.  “I made dinner and he came in to eat.  I . . . I guess we aren’t fighting anymore.  He explained that he kinda feels like it’s his place to watch Don’s back.”\n\n\t“Raph needn’t do that against his own family though,” Leo said.\n\n\tAs Mikey tried to find a way to describe what he’d guessed about Raph’s feelings for Don, or if he should even talk about that, he felt the wash cloth touch a particularly sensitive spot on his shell.  His mind went blank for a moment as he focused on that feeling, the tingling sensation riding across his spine in waves.\n\n\t“He realizes th . . . that now,” Mikey stuttered. \n\n\tThe wash cloth was playing along the top ridge of his carapace, where his skin sloped into shell.  It was a spot he liked to wash when he was in the shower because it made his entire body feel very warm.\n\n\t“Misunderstandings are a two way street, Mikey,” Leo said as he scrubbed.  “Did Raph explain why he felt like he needed to interfere on Don’s behalf on this particular occasion?”\n\n\tNow was Mikey’s chance to talk to Leo about the sex thing if he chose to do so.  Once again, Leo was leaving it entirely up to him by not pushing Mikey into talking about things that were outside of his younger brother’s comfort zone.  Mikey could appreciate not only the tact, but the empathy Leo was displaying.\n\n\tAs Mikey was deciding how best to formulate an answer, Leo’s cloth covered fingers slid along the grooves at the center of his carapace.  Mikey swallowed a gasp as the movement seemed to press against the nerves along his spine; nerves that vibrated with pure pleasure.  The echo of that feeling radiated down until Mikey could feel it in his tail.\n\n\t“N . . . not exactly,” Mikey managed to say.  “He was kinda skirting around the issue ‘cause he didn’t want to upset me before I heard him out.”\n\n\tAnother hard press nearly had Mikey up on his toes.  The base of his tail had begun throbbing and the tip had started to tingle; his entire tail going stiff.  Mikey wanted to tell Leo to stop; that he’d clean the rest of the dirt off by himself, but if Mikey said anything he was afraid Leo would want to know why.\n\n\t“As long as the two of you aren’t at odds anymore,” Leo said, purposely not asking Mikey to elaborate.\n\n\tThe next long sweep of the wash cloth made time seem to stop for Mikey.  He could almost see the dust mites floating in slow motion; the ticking of the wall clock and the beating of his heart were loud in his ears.\n\n\t“We aren’t,” Mikey said, his own voice sounding funny in his ears.  “Raph was . . .  [i]different [/i]last night.  I don’t know how to explain it except that he wasn’t all macho like he usually is when he’s trying to apologize.”\n\n\t“Mmm,” Leo murmured in a noncommittal manner.\n\n\tSlightly hypnotized by the feeling of Leo outlining his scutes with the rough cloth, Mikey tried to articulate something of what he’d experienced the evening before.\n\n\t“Raph can be really intense when he’s trying to get his point across,” Mikey said softly.  “I mean, I never knew he could be so—\"\n\n\tMikey stopped to think.  He didn’t want to say passionate, though that’s what he’d felt.  Another word seemed to fit, so he switched them and said, “Impassioned.  Like he was letting his guard down just for me.  I guess that’s what mostly fixed things between us.  At least, I [i]think [/i]they’re fixed.”\n\n\tLeo’s hand moved from the center top of Mikey’s carapace to slide downward; one long unhurried motion, the drag of the cloth in between scutes curling Mikey’s toes.  Mikey started to feel a vague pressure building between his legs and had to remind himself to breathe.\n\n\tThis had only ever happened to him after an intensely erotic dream; a dream where some warm, faceless person pressed against him and opened their mouth against his.\n\n\tHe always imagined it was a beautiful woman and he always woke up incredibly hard and aching.  Depending on how advanced his arousal was Mikey would either try to ignore it until it diminished, or head to the bathroom and lock himself inside.\n\n\tStanding over the toilet with one arm braced against the back wall or in the shower so that water would wash the evidence down the drain were the only places Mikey felt comfortable enough to drop down and masturbate.\n\n\tMikey had no idea before now that someone’s touch could affect a similar arousal.  His face felt flushed and warm and Mikey was becoming incapable of coherent speech.\n\n\tLeo was saying something to him but the words weren’t registering.  All Mikey could think about was how good it felt to have his brother stroking the grooves in his shell.\n\n\tA thought broke through Mikey’s head that Leo might be doing this on purpose; that there was nothing on his shell and this was an excuse that Leo was using in order to touch him.\n\n\tAll Mikey could think was, [i]“He has to know how good this feels.  He has to know, he has to know, he has  . . . .”\n[/i]\n\tSuddenly the pressure stopped and Leo stepped away.  Mikey immediately missed the warmth of his brother’s body heat.\n\n\t“I got most of it,” Leo said.  “Are you sure you don’t remember picking this up?”\n\n\tMikey turned and stared with a glazed expression at the wash cloth in Leo’s hand.  The cloth was covered in a dark, reddish brown substance.\n\n\tLeo moved over to the sink and began rinsing the cloth.  Wringing as much water as he could from the material, Leo leaned down and draped it over the water pipe beneath the sink.\n\n\t“I’m heading into the dojo,” Leo said as he dried his hands.  “I need to stretch some kinks out of my neck.”\n\n\tFor some reason it was suddenly imperative that Leo not leave.  Mikey equated Leo’s presence to the heat he’d felt the night before from Raph.  That same warmth seemed to be rolling off of Leo and Mikey was beginning to find it addicting.\n\n\t“Um, wait,” Mikey said, frantically searching for a way to keep Leo near.  “You  . . . you haven’t had breakfast.”\n\n\tLeo smiled.  “Actually I had some toast while I was waiting for the water to boil for my tea.  You take your time eating breakfast, Mikey; we’re both up really early.  Join me in the dojo when you’re ready.”\n\n\tBefore Mikey could think of some other way to get Leo to stay, his older brother had disappeared.  With his departure, the warmth seemed to escape as well, leaving the kitchen cold and not nearly as friendly.\n\n\tMikey almost followed Leo right then, but he stopped himself quickly.  Just because he didn’t understand this newly dependent feeling he was having for Leo didn’t mean he was going to start chasing his big brother around like a panting puppy.\n\n\tWalking to the kitchen counter with jerky steps, Mikey immediately recognized Leo’s scent.  It was the second time in his life that he’d paid conscious attention to the masculine aroma left behind by any of his brothers.\n\n\tMikey noticed that where Raph’s scent had left him feeling excited and a bit confused, Leo’s was comforting and full of strength.\n\n\tOnce Leo was in the dojo he sat down on the floor and began breathing deeply, slowing his racing heartbeat.  Listening to the change in Mikey’s voice, watching how his body, especially his tail, had responded to Leo’s ministrations, had initiated a corresponding cascade of feelings in Leo.\n\n\tWhen Mikey’s breath hitched and his hands clenched at his sides it was all Leo could do to remain calm; only his will-power and superbly honed focus kept him from showing his own arousal.\n\n\tBy carefully watching Mikey’s reactions Leo knew exactly when to stop his purposeful seduction.  His intent for this morning wasn’t to push anything too far.\n\n\tAfter Don had fallen asleep, Leo had crept out to make sure Raph and Mikey weren’t at each other’s throats.  That was when he discovered that Mikey had left the lair, presumably to run out his anxiety.  Leo had a pretty good idea that Mikey was disturbed enough by the family discord to be unable to sleep well.  He guessed that Mikey would try to avoid his brothers by coming down to breakfast earlier than normal.\n\n\tLeo had risen in the very early morning hours without waking Donny and had gone from the lab to the garage straight away.  There he’d carefully prepared one side of a wash cloth by wiping it across the greasy grime of an engine part.  Folding the soiled section inwards, Leo had strategically placed the cloth beneath the sink and then waited for Mikey.\n\n\tWhen he heard Mikey’s door open, Leo warmed the tea and pretended to have arrived only a bit earlier than his brother.\n\n\tIf Mikey hadn’t come down first, then Leo would have waited for another opportunity.  Touching Mikey in ways that would awaken his latent sexuality was going to be the best approach to claiming Mikey as his.\n\n\tThe only thing that gave Leo pause now was how Mikey had apparently responded to Raph’s unusual show of vulnerability last night.  It was something the hot head rarely let anyone see and it was a strangely intoxicating sight to behold.  Leo could tell that momentary show of openness on Raph’s part had affected Mikey deeply.\n\n\tLeo had to factor in Raph’s sheer animal magnetism and compensate for it somehow.  The normally tough brother had set aside his gruff exterior and Mikey was now reacting favorably to him.  The moment Raph became aware of Mikey’s changed attitude he would understand what had occurred and would take full advantage of the situation.\n\n\tStaying a step ahead of Raph meant Leo had to somehow shift Mikey’s attention so that it was firmly directed towards his oldest brother.  The most solid way of doing that was to remove all other distractions.\n\n\tFortunately, he knew Raph’s weakness and wasn’t averse to using it against him.  The fact that this particular purple banded weakness had expressed tacit agreement with Leo’s plans made him a most effective tool in Leo’s arsenal.\n\n\tLeo also rather liked the idea of playing matchmaker.\n\nTBC………….\n",
  "writing_bbcode_parsed": "<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'>\tA noise from the kitchen told Mikey he wasn&rsquo;t the first one to get up this morning.&nbsp;&nbsp;He had slept very little the night before, even after a three hour run, and he wasn&rsquo;t in the mood to face his brothers.&nbsp;&nbsp;Giving up on trying to sleep and rising so early was supposed to guarantee that he had the kitchen to himself.<br /><br />\tMikey stopped and debated on going back upstairs.&nbsp;&nbsp;He could always just wait until someone called him down to practice and eat his breakfast afterwards, knowing that no one would bother him then.<br /><br />\tSetting his shoulders, Mikey decided against that idea.&nbsp;&nbsp;He was not going to go through the rest of his life feeling out of place and uncomfortable in his own home.&nbsp;&nbsp;Striving to keep his expression completely neutral, Mikey strode into the kitchen.<br /><br />\tHe almost sighed with relief when he saw Leo.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey amended his earlier thought; he wasn&rsquo;t in the mood to face Raph or Don, but so far Leo hadn&rsquo;t treated him any differently than normal.&nbsp;&nbsp;Normal was good.<br /><br />\tLeo was just pouring a cup of tea when Mikey walked in.&nbsp;&nbsp;One look at his younger brother&rsquo;s face told him that Mikey hadn&rsquo;t slept much.&nbsp;&nbsp;He could also see the worry in Mikey&rsquo;s normally shining blue eyes; they were unnaturally dull this morning.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Good morning, Mikey,&rdquo; Leo said, taking a sip from his cup.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Humph, I&rsquo;m sure it is for somebody,&rdquo; Mikey mumbled.&nbsp;&nbsp;Opening the refrigerator, he pulled out the carton of orange juice and found a clean glass to pour some into.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;You went out last night,&rdquo; Leo said mildly.<br /><br />\tMikey glanced at him over his glass, trying to gauge if Leo was gearing up to begin a lecture.&nbsp;&nbsp;He relaxed a little when he saw that his brother had turned away from him to dig for something under the sink.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Just for a run in the sewers,&rdquo; Mikey said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I thought about hitting the rooftops, but after you saw the Foot out there looking for us, I decided to keep it on the down low.&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;If that means you decided to be discreet then I think you showed a great deal of common sense,&rdquo; Leo said with a laugh.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;I was kinda hoping it would tire me out,&rdquo; Mikey admitted.<br /><br />\tLeo stood up with a wash cloth in his hand and tipped his head to the side slightly as he studied Mikey.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Did you get any sleep bro&rsquo;?&rdquo; Leo asked.<br /><br />\tMikey shrugged.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Not much,&rdquo; he said.<br /><br />\tTurning towards the sink, Leo turned the water on and let it get warm before wetting the cloth.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;We&rsquo;ll try a little meditation later and see if that helps your sleeplessness,&rdquo; Leo said.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Dude!&nbsp;&nbsp;I shouldn&rsquo;t be punished &lsquo;cause I can&rsquo;t sleep,&rdquo; Mikey protested good naturedly.<br /><br />\tLeo wrung the excess water out of the cloth and turned to smile at his brother.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;You usually fall asleep during meditation anyway, Michelangelo,&rdquo; Leo said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Turn around.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tMikey did a double take, shifting his eyes from Leo&rsquo;s face to the wash cloth bunched up in his hand.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;What are you doing, Leo?&rdquo; Mikey asked.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Turn,&rdquo; Leo said again, gesturing with one hand.&nbsp;&nbsp;As Mikey slowly did as instructed, Leo said, &ldquo;Do you remember where all you went last night?&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Not really,&rdquo; Mikey admitted.&nbsp;&nbsp;He felt pressure against his carapace as Leo pressed the cloth to it.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;You got something on your shell,&rdquo; Leo said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Some kind of ground in dirt.&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Oh.&rdquo;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey tried to recall all of the tunnels he had run through, remembering that in several places he&rsquo;d stirred up dust and in others he&rsquo;d gone into mud.&nbsp;&nbsp;He&rsquo;d rinsed off before crawling into bed though.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;It&rsquo;s trapped in the grooves,&rdquo; Leo told him.&nbsp;&nbsp;As he began scrubbing between Mikey&rsquo;s scutes, he asked, &ldquo;Want to talk about anything?&rdquo;<br /><br />\tMikey thought about that question.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was completely open ended; he could say no and he was pretty sure Leo would drop the subject.&nbsp;&nbsp;But the press of that cloth was rubbing into sensitive areas of his carapace and Mikey was starting to feel pretty relaxed.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Is Donny really mad at me?&rdquo; Mikey finally asked.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;He isn&rsquo;t mad at you at all,&rdquo; Leo answered.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;He&rsquo;s mostly upset with himself for placing you in an awkward situation.&nbsp;&nbsp;Don&rsquo;s also feeling a little guilty for allowing Raph to see that he was disturbed.&nbsp;&nbsp;Raph is sometimes overprotective of Donatello.&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Yeah, he told me that last night,&rdquo; Mikey said.<br /><br />\tLeo paused for a moment as he let those words soak in and then continued to work on Mikey&rsquo;s shell.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;I told Raph not to bother you again,&rdquo; Leo said.<br /><br />\tMikey appreciated that Leo hadn&rsquo;t asked about their conversation.&nbsp;&nbsp;He left it up to Mikey as to whether the youngest brother wanted to discuss it.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;He didn&rsquo;t bother me,&rdquo; Mikey said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I made dinner and he came in to eat.&nbsp;&nbsp;I . . . I guess we aren&rsquo;t fighting anymore.&nbsp;&nbsp;He explained that he kinda feels like it&rsquo;s his place to watch Don&rsquo;s back.&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Raph needn&rsquo;t do that against his own family though,&rdquo; Leo said.<br /><br />\tAs Mikey tried to find a way to describe what he&rsquo;d guessed about Raph&rsquo;s feelings for Don, or if he should even talk about that, he felt the wash cloth touch a particularly sensitive spot on his shell.&nbsp;&nbsp;His mind went blank for a moment as he focused on that feeling, the tingling sensation riding across his spine in waves.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;He realizes th . . . that now,&rdquo; Mikey stuttered. <br /><br />\tThe wash cloth was playing along the top ridge of his carapace, where his skin sloped into shell.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was a spot he liked to wash when he was in the shower because it made his entire body feel very warm.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Misunderstandings are a two way street, Mikey,&rdquo; Leo said as he scrubbed.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Did Raph explain why he felt like he needed to interfere on Don&rsquo;s behalf on this particular occasion?&rdquo;<br /><br />\tNow was Mikey&rsquo;s chance to talk to Leo about the sex thing if he chose to do so.&nbsp;&nbsp;Once again, Leo was leaving it entirely up to him by not pushing Mikey into talking about things that were outside of his younger brother&rsquo;s comfort zone.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey could appreciate not only the tact, but the empathy Leo was displaying.<br /><br />\tAs Mikey was deciding how best to formulate an answer, Leo&rsquo;s cloth covered fingers slid along the grooves at the center of his carapace.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey swallowed a gasp as the movement seemed to press against the nerves along his spine; nerves that vibrated with pure pleasure.&nbsp;&nbsp;The echo of that feeling radiated down until Mikey could feel it in his tail.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;N . . . not exactly,&rdquo; Mikey managed to say.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;He was kinda skirting around the issue &lsquo;cause he didn&rsquo;t want to upset me before I heard him out.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tAnother hard press nearly had Mikey up on his toes.&nbsp;&nbsp;The base of his tail had begun throbbing and the tip had started to tingle; his entire tail going stiff.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey wanted to tell Leo to stop; that he&rsquo;d clean the rest of the dirt off by himself, but if Mikey said anything he was afraid Leo would want to know why.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;As long as the two of you aren&rsquo;t at odds anymore,&rdquo; Leo said, purposely not asking Mikey to elaborate.<br /><br />\tThe next long sweep of the wash cloth made time seem to stop for Mikey.&nbsp;&nbsp;He could almost see the dust mites floating in slow motion; the ticking of the wall clock and the beating of his heart were loud in his ears.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;We aren&rsquo;t,&rdquo; Mikey said, his own voice sounding funny in his ears.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Raph was . . .&nbsp;&nbsp;<em>different </em>last night.&nbsp;&nbsp;I don&rsquo;t know how to explain it except that he wasn&rsquo;t all macho like he usually is when he&rsquo;s trying to apologize.&rdquo;<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Mmm,&rdquo; Leo murmured in a noncommittal manner.<br /><br />\tSlightly hypnotized by the feeling of Leo outlining his scutes with the rough cloth, Mikey tried to articulate something of what he&rsquo;d experienced the evening before.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Raph can be really intense when he&rsquo;s trying to get his point across,&rdquo; Mikey said softly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I mean, I never knew he could be so&mdash;&quot;<br /><br />\tMikey stopped to think.&nbsp;&nbsp;He didn&rsquo;t want to say passionate, though that&rsquo;s what he&rsquo;d felt.&nbsp;&nbsp;Another word seemed to fit, so he switched them and said, &ldquo;Impassioned.&nbsp;&nbsp;Like he was letting his guard down just for me.&nbsp;&nbsp;I guess that&rsquo;s what mostly fixed things between us.&nbsp;&nbsp;At least, I <em>think </em>they&rsquo;re fixed.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tLeo&rsquo;s hand moved from the center top of Mikey&rsquo;s carapace to slide downward; one long unhurried motion, the drag of the cloth in between scutes curling Mikey&rsquo;s toes.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey started to feel a vague pressure building between his legs and had to remind himself to breathe.<br /><br />\tThis had only ever happened to him after an intensely erotic dream; a dream where some warm, faceless person pressed against him and opened their mouth against his.<br /><br />\tHe always imagined it was a beautiful woman and he always woke up incredibly hard and aching.&nbsp;&nbsp;Depending on how advanced his arousal was Mikey would either try to ignore it until it diminished, or head to the bathroom and lock himself inside.<br /><br />\tStanding over the toilet with one arm braced against the back wall or in the shower so that water would wash the evidence down the drain were the only places Mikey felt comfortable enough to drop down and masturbate.<br /><br />\tMikey had no idea before now that someone&rsquo;s touch could affect a similar arousal.&nbsp;&nbsp;His face felt flushed and warm and Mikey was becoming incapable of coherent speech.<br /><br />\tLeo was saying something to him but the words weren&rsquo;t registering.&nbsp;&nbsp;All Mikey could think about was how good it felt to have his brother stroking the grooves in his shell.<br /><br />\tA thought broke through Mikey&rsquo;s head that Leo might be doing this on purpose; that there was nothing on his shell and this was an excuse that Leo was using in order to touch him.<br /><br />\tAll Mikey could think was, <em>&ldquo;He has to know how good this feels.&nbsp;&nbsp;He has to know, he has to know, he has&nbsp;&nbsp;. . . .&rdquo;<br /></em><br />\tSuddenly the pressure stopped and Leo stepped away.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey immediately missed the warmth of his brother&rsquo;s body heat.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;I got most of it,&rdquo; Leo said.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Are you sure you don&rsquo;t remember picking this up?&rdquo;<br /><br />\tMikey turned and stared with a glazed expression at the wash cloth in Leo&rsquo;s hand.&nbsp;&nbsp;The cloth was covered in a dark, reddish brown substance.<br /><br />\tLeo moved over to the sink and began rinsing the cloth.&nbsp;&nbsp;Wringing as much water as he could from the material, Leo leaned down and draped it over the water pipe beneath the sink.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;I&rsquo;m heading into the dojo,&rdquo; Leo said as he dried his hands.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;I need to stretch some kinks out of my neck.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tFor some reason it was suddenly imperative that Leo not leave.&nbsp;&nbsp;Mikey equated Leo&rsquo;s presence to the heat he&rsquo;d felt the night before from Raph.&nbsp;&nbsp;That same warmth seemed to be rolling off of Leo and Mikey was beginning to find it addicting.<br /><br />\t&ldquo;Um, wait,&rdquo; Mikey said, frantically searching for a way to keep Leo near.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;You&nbsp;&nbsp;. . . you haven&rsquo;t had breakfast.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tLeo smiled.&nbsp;&nbsp;&ldquo;Actually I had some toast while I was waiting for the water to boil for my tea.&nbsp;&nbsp;You take your time eating breakfast, Mikey; we&rsquo;re both up really early.&nbsp;&nbsp;Join me in the dojo when you&rsquo;re ready.&rdquo;<br /><br />\tBefore Mikey could think of some other way to get Leo to stay, his older brother had disappeared.&nbsp;&nbsp;With his departure, the warmth seemed to escape as well, leaving the kitchen cold and not nearly as friendly.<br /><br />\tMikey almost followed Leo right then, but he stopped himself quickly.&nbsp;&nbsp;Just because he didn&rsquo;t understand this newly dependent feeling he was having for Leo didn&rsquo;t mean he was going to start chasing his big brother around like a panting puppy.<br /><br />\tWalking to the kitchen counter with jerky steps, Mikey immediately recognized Leo&rsquo;s scent.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was the second time in his life that he&rsquo;d paid conscious attention to the masculine aroma left behind by any of his brothers.<br /><br />\tMikey noticed that where Raph&rsquo;s scent had left him feeling excited and a bit confused, Leo&rsquo;s was comforting and full of strength.<br /><br />\tOnce Leo was in the dojo he sat down on the floor and began breathing deeply, slowing his racing heartbeat.&nbsp;&nbsp;Listening to the change in Mikey&rsquo;s voice, watching how his body, especially his tail, had responded to Leo&rsquo;s ministrations, had initiated a corresponding cascade of feelings in Leo.<br /><br />\tWhen Mikey&rsquo;s breath hitched and his hands clenched at his sides it was all Leo could do to remain calm; only his will-power and superbly honed focus kept him from showing his own arousal.<br /><br />\tBy carefully watching Mikey&rsquo;s reactions Leo knew exactly when to stop his purposeful seduction.&nbsp;&nbsp;His intent for this morning wasn&rsquo;t to push anything too far.<br /><br />\tAfter Don had fallen asleep, Leo had crept out to make sure Raph and Mikey weren&rsquo;t at each other&rsquo;s throats.&nbsp;&nbsp;That was when he discovered that Mikey had left the lair, presumably to run out his anxiety.&nbsp;&nbsp;Leo had a pretty good idea that Mikey was disturbed enough by the family discord to be unable to sleep well.&nbsp;&nbsp;He guessed that Mikey would try to avoid his brothers by coming down to breakfast earlier than normal.<br /><br />\tLeo had risen in the very early morning hours without waking Donny and had gone from the lab to the garage straight away.&nbsp;&nbsp;There he&rsquo;d carefully prepared one side of a wash cloth by wiping it across the greasy grime of an engine part.&nbsp;&nbsp;Folding the soiled section inwards, Leo had strategically placed the cloth beneath the sink and then waited for Mikey.<br /><br />\tWhen he heard Mikey&rsquo;s door open, Leo warmed the tea and pretended to have arrived only a bit earlier than his brother.<br /><br />\tIf Mikey hadn&rsquo;t come down first, then Leo would have waited for another opportunity.&nbsp;&nbsp;Touching Mikey in ways that would awaken his latent sexuality was going to be the best approach to claiming Mikey as his.<br /><br />\tThe only thing that gave Leo pause now was how Mikey had apparently responded to Raph&rsquo;s unusual show of vulnerability last night.&nbsp;&nbsp;It was something the hot head rarely let anyone see and it was a strangely intoxicating sight to behold.&nbsp;&nbsp;Leo could tell that momentary show of openness on Raph&rsquo;s part had affected Mikey deeply.<br /><br />\tLeo had to factor in Raph&rsquo;s sheer animal magnetism and compensate for it somehow.&nbsp;&nbsp;The normally tough brother had set aside his gruff exterior and Mikey was now reacting favorably to him.&nbsp;&nbsp;The moment Raph became aware of Mikey&rsquo;s changed attitude he would understand what had occurred and would take full advantage of the situation.<br /><br />\tStaying a step ahead of Raph meant Leo had to somehow shift Mikey&rsquo;s attention so that it was firmly directed towards his oldest brother.&nbsp;&nbsp;The most solid way of doing that was to remove all other distractions.<br /><br />\tFortunately, he knew Raph&rsquo;s weakness and wasn&rsquo;t averse to using it against him.&nbsp;&nbsp;The fact that this particular purple banded weakness had expressed tacit agreement with Leo&rsquo;s plans made him a most effective tool in Leo&rsquo;s arsenal.<br /><br />\tLeo also rather liked the idea of playing matchmaker.<br /><br />TBC&hellip;&hellip;&hellip;&hellip;.<br /></span>",
