TMNT: Life in the City

Apologies, the News, and Sacrifices

~Almost an hour later in Leo's Perspective~

I groaned as I opened my eyes to see that I was back on the ship. I looked around to see that Haylie was there, who was asleep. But I smelled a familiar vanilla essence wrapped around me. I looked over at my left side to see that Aqua was there! I got off of her, trying not to wake her. But I heard her moan. 'Uh oh...'

~My Perspective~

I woke up due to movements at my side. I rubbed my eyes and Leo was at my sights. "Leo!" I tackled him into a hug. "Thank god you're okay!" I licked his cheek.

He chuckled lightly, then he frowned. "Aqua..."

"Yeah?"

"Aqua, I'm so sorry that I was rough on you. I didn't mean to yell at you, it broke my heart that I did it to you. It made you cry, I didn't like to see you crying. And it would break my heart even more if you got hurt..." he looked down.

"Aww Leo." I hugged him and wrapped my tail around him. "Of course I forgive you. But I could take care of myself you know. But I'll stay by your side, I promise you this."

He wrapped his arms around me. "Mi amor~" he said as he hugged me more as I hugged him more.

~Haylie's Perspective~

I woke up to churrs and purrs to see that Leo and Aqua were awake. They were both hugging. "Aww, cute!" I smiled.

Aqua turned around. "Hey sis." she smiled at me.

I smiled. "Hey sis. You guys made up?"

"Yes we did. And now we're much closer than ever." she rubs noses with Leo.

He chuckled as he rubbed noses back with her.

I laughed and blushed about what Raph told me. I cleared my throat. "Um Aqua? Can I talk to you?"

"Of course sis. You can tell me anything." she said as she was crawling up to me.

"You don't have to be near me, we can talk in Spanish."

Leo grabbed her waist and made her sit on his lap. "Okay good. Because I want her with me."

She giggled and cleared her throat. "De acuerdo Haylie, estoy listo."

(Translation: "Okay Haylie, I'm ready.")

"Está bien, pero tienes que prometer no decir a nadie más. ¿Bueno?"

(Translation: "Okay, but you have to promise not to tell anyone else. Okay?")

"Cruzar mi corazón y la esperanza de volar."

(Translation: "Cross my heart and hope to fly.")

I took a deep breath in and said it to her. "Estoy... embarazada del hijo de Raphael." I blushed.

(Translation: "I'm... pregnant with Raphael's child.")

~My Perspective~

I gasped at the news and clapped. 'Whoo hoo! I'm gonna be an auntie!!' I was internally screaming in my thoughts. I looked up to my sister. "Felicidades Haylie! ¡Estoy tan orgulloso de ti!"

(Translation: "Congratulations Haylie! I'm so proud of you!")

I saw her smiling big and hugging me. "Gracias Aguamarina."

(Translation: "Thank you Aquamarine.")

I hugged her back with a smile. "De nada Haylie."
