Unbearable Insanity

Chapter 5: All About Me Now

                               (Mikey's POV)

I sat there with Don, we just cried into each others shoulder, I needed to be comforted even more than usual because I've been more depressed since the incident. We cried for around over 30 minutes and I felt better, I suddenly got an anxious twitch and pulled Don's bandana tail, which made his head jerk forward, "OH, MY GOD, Donnie, I'm sorry!" I say, "It's ok, Mikey! It didn't hurt, and there's no blood. I'm ok!" he respond's, he's so fucking nice, I have the best family in the fucking UNIVERSE, I just can't help it, "And since when did you have fear twitches?" he's tryna help, I can see it in his eyes. "It just developed a few months ago, I started having these anxiety (tongue click) tics and I'm just as confused as you here." I say. "Well, try to calm down, if its anxiety or emotion of fear based you can't feed it, and these are signs you might be developing Tourette's syndrome, Mikey" he says, "CUNT- sorry- and how would I calm down in a big situation like this? I wouldn't even know where to (fingers snap) start" I stutter, I just called him a cunt, to his FACE, he didn't even react, like it was normal. "Ok, so, the weird thing is that I have medicine and a list of what to do, I also have a blank ID card for Tourette's, incase any of us developed it." he says, he literally has a thing for any possible situation or outcome. "Ok, what do I- Kylie Jenner face! (pose)- do? And can I have list of things with the medicine?" I say, he nods and we go to the living room area. When I sat down I twitched, "I'M GAY AS HELL! I LIKE MEN!" I shout, I then covered my mouth as the guys just looked at me like 'Weird flex, but, ok' I am mentally sobbing in laughter at the reactions. I twitch again when D' comes back to me with the stuff, "Your mom, bitch (pose)" I say to his face, I can tell he's laughing inside, so are the other guys, I am the first to start laughing, then everyone else is. April and Casey come down and see us laughing and start to too, they're clueless.

                                 (Casey POV, finally a Casey POV! 🙏🏾)

The guys are giving off major 'I just smoked pills and swallowed weed' energy right now, they're just laughing like idiots, but it's funny so, I laugh too, don't have a clue why. We all just simultaneously stop at the same time, which makes it even more funny and we all laugh again. 

After we all calm down, Mikey twitches at random, "Gayness, I'm the embodiment of it all." He says. I laugh out loud and I found it funny. He looks at me and we laugh together, I can't laugh anymore, I feel like I'ma puke. "Mikey, do you need the medicine to help the anxiety twitches/Tourette's? Or the sheet, or none?" Don says, Mikey has Tourette's?! "No, no, I'll be fine, (hand flip twitch)" Mikey says, "Wait, hold the speed train, Mikey has Tourette's?!" I say, I can't process this, "No, but he does have anxiety twitches, we think he's developing Tourette's." Don goes again, Mikey's just nodding and pointing at Donnie while he speaks. I am confused more, "So when did the whole twitching start?" I ask, "Around a hoe- Don you tell him, my twitch and mind is just gonna say 'around a hoe ago'" Mikey says, "Around a month ago, he was always able to keep 'em under control, but now we understand and find it that we might as well get used to him developing Tourette's" Donnie finishes for him. Ok, everything finally makes more sense again, "Ok , I'm not as confused anymore." I say.

                                (Raph POV) 

Casey finally understands now, we need to stop laughing at Mikey's tics though, I feel like that'll make 'em worse, but his tics are just fucking hilarious, "I- I'm gay!" He twitches again, I can't help but chuckle.

(For anyone who has Tourette's/ is developing Tourette's/ has a family member or friend who has it, you can also request tics and twitches if you like, I will use the idea!)
