Donnie's Thoughts: Someday

Wow...

That was all I could think at the moment. Usually, I'm a man of many words. But now I was left standing speechless! Everything around me started to fade. I was no longer aware of my surroundings; I was oblivious to everything. All of my undivided attention was on HER.

When I first laid my eyes on her, I was stunned by the vision of beauty before me. In that single moment the wind was knocked right out of me.

I know this is corny to say but I never believed in "love at first sight" till now. "She was," and I quote, " The most beautiful girl I've ever seen!" She had fiery orange hair which was pull back into a small ponytail with short bangs and a yellow headband upon her head. She wore a yellow t-shirt, shorts with black tights underneath, and old dark grey boots. She looked around the age of 16, just a year older than me. And her eyes. Her dazzling and gorgeous ice blue eyes were glistening in the night. Her cheeks were tinted a light shade of pink with light freckles above them and on her nose. If pictures are worth a thousand words, then she is a priceless work of art.

I felt like I was in my own world. And she was there with me.

But of corse all good things must come to an end. My older brother just had to interrupt my train of thought.

" Isn't she, like, the only girl you've ever seen?" He said in a know it all attitude.

That's my brother for ya. He's a hot headed, mr know-it-all, macho man who is too tough to be messing with. He always picks on me and my other brothers.

"My point still stands." I replied with a bit of annoyance.

I turned back to watch her. She was like an angel. But that's when I noticed a white van pull up to her and her father. Men dressed in black suits started to pile out of the van. They all look so similar to one another, and they were all headed towards the girl and her father. That's when I realized what was about to happen. They were going to be kidnapped.

I had to do something, anything, to help her. I looked on and saw how scared she looked. It broke my heart. I turned to my brothers with a pleading look on my face. That was when we all decided to save her; when our lives changed forever.

April....Her name is April...

To this day I feel awful for letting the Kraang get away with April's father. My brothers and I were only able to save April that fateful night. But I made a promise to April that I would find her father and return him to her.

Since then April became our best friend and for me, my first crush. I was glad that she even wanted to become our friends. I was more than glad, I was ecstatic! I took this as a sign, maybe I'll have a chance with her. Maybe she'll fall for me. Maybe we'll go out and become a couple. Maybe, just maybe. But then again, maybe not.

I don't know if I've mentioned this but I'm a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle! I don't think anyone could fall in love with a monster like me. Not even a sweet, kind, brilliant, independent, fun, and beautiful girl like April O'Neal. But that doesn't stop me from trying to win over April.

I'll do whatever it takes to make her see a different side of me. Make her see that I am the perfect guy for her. I'll do anything to make her happy. Take any hit so she wouldn't feel an ounce of pain. Make her laugh to see her bright and shining smile.

The only problem with making April my girlfriend is I'm afraid of asking her. I'm ashamed of my fear of asking her out. But that doesn't stop me from coming up with ideas to impress and win her over. But until that day comes when I overcome that fear, I'm going enjoy every second I have spending time with April; while slowly gaining confidence. Because someday, I will ask out April O'Neal......Someday.
