'Spoken to her yet?'
'Nope. She's been avoiding all day.'
Casey chuckled then huffed, swinging his legs in the air as he sat on a courtyard table.
'Same. But who can blame her? After well, you know.'
April ran a hand through her bright ginger hair, sighing heavily.
'Ans that I guess you mean being backstabbing assholes.' She muttered, her eyes focusing on Mona, whom was surrounded by a group of the most stuck up brats ever, her bad, she meant cheerleaders.
April rose from her seat, smoothening her yellow jacket and turned to Casey.
'Let's just go talk to her.'
'I-i don't-' Casey was cut off, as he was dragged by the arm by April in Mona's direction. The cheerleaders noticed April and Casey before Mona did. and waved a goodbye before wondering off. Mona turned around to face her friends, the smile of her face dropping to a frown. She was pulling her intimidating face, which happened to be oh so adorable aswell. She tilted her head with her arms folded, and simply stood there. That would out them off.
Casey cleared his throat, and spoke up.
'Look, Leo told us what happened with you Raph and Dakota and, erm, and-'. 7 years of knowing this girl and she was still considering could be the scariest bitch he's known.
April punched his shoulder, rolling her eyes.
'What he means to say is that we're still here for you.' She smiled briefly, but that smile quickly disappeared when she noticed Mona still stood there with the smug look on her face.
'You knew. Both of you. Didn't you?'
This brought some tension between all three. Casey bit down on his bottom lip, then laughed nervously.
'Well, we tried to tell you yesterday.'
'Then, you got that text from Dakota.'
'And we assumed you were going to hear it from her.'
Mona laughed loudly, waving her hands in the air.
'Well, you assumed wrong. In fact, I caught her and Raphael red-handed, and then I guessed the rest for myself. And btw, people that are here for me would have told me the second they found out.' Her grew louder, and snappier, and this caught the attention of some freshman walking by. Mona caught a glimpse of the listeners, and glared at them, waiting till they walked away.
April and Casey looked at her sympathetically, the guilt beginning to get to them.
'We're sorry. We really are.' April apologised, her voice small and her face ever so innocent.
'And we've known each other for too long to get this in the way of our friendship.' Casey added, putting his hand on Mona's shoulder.
'Is that what you said to Dakota and Raphael?' She snapped.
Casey moved his hand away, looking at her in awe.
'Well, no..'
Mona chuckled, shaking her head.
'My bad. But, you don't have to worry about me. I'm fine.'
Casey and April rose their eyebrows at her, shocked at how quick she recovered.
'Isn't it going to be hard, seeing Dakota at school?' April questioned.
Mona shook her head, shrugging.
'Why would she at school?'The turtles sat around the kitchen table in silence, focusing on their breakfast. Neither Leo and Raph said a word, and attempts of conversation made by Mikey and Donnie never seemed to work. Mikey gobbled down his omelette pizza loudly, probably expecting a slap round the head from Raph or some bitchy remark any second now. Instead, he sat there, and ate quietly. This bothered Mikey and he slammed his food onto his plate, standing up.
'K guys. But there is some seriously mad tension right now y'all. Wanna explain why?' He folded his arms, looking around.
Raph pushed his cereal bowl away and spoke up.
'I'l, tell you why. Leo, where the hell did you go yesterday night?' He asked, staring at his brother sitting opposite him. Everyone stared at Leo as well, waiting for an answer. Leo chuckled, wiping the corner of his mouth.
'Well, you see little brother, I noticed how you left the lair, and I asked Mikey where you went, he told me you were at Mona's.' Raph gave Mikey the death glare, before looking back at Leo, knowing where this story will be going pretty soon.
'So, I went to hers, and she told me the most interesting story.'
'We all probably know what that story is.' Donnie mumbled, staring at the ceiling. Raph turned to Donnie in disbelief.
'How?!'
Donnie looked at Raph and shrugged.
'April told me.'
Raph stood up, slamming his hands against the table.
'She knew!'
Mikey laughed awkwardly, playing with his hands.
'So did I. You know Raph, next time don't make out with people in a kitchen, especially when I have someone has a hidden door leading to one.
Raph stuttered in shock, surprised how everyone knew. Leo was just as surprised as his brother.
'I can't believe you guys kept it a secret for that long. And I can't believe that you would even consider hurting our friend like that!' Leo shouted at his brother.
Raph leaned against the table, looking straightly ahead at Leo.
'Thanks, but I don't need a lecture.' He snapped at him.
'Well, clearly you do because you think it's okay to turn everyone against someone who's supposed to trust us!' He retorted, beginning to boil. He was supposed to be the chill one of the group. Mikey and Donnie, slowly backed away heading for the door, then quickly escaped and both bumped into Master Splinter.
He looked down at the two of them his face stern and serious.
'Care to explain the situation?'
