With TMNT, A Lot Can Happen (TMNT 2012 One-Shots)

'Come Back To Me' (Leo & Ella)

Request from @moonstone727;

This one features Ella. She is secretive, determined, loyal, trustworthy, kind, sarcastic, outgoing/adventurous, funny & daring. She secretly thinks Leo to be her best friend, as he thinks the same way towards her, in return. But, they try not to show it as more than good buddies. They're also at the farmhouse, when this happens!

Hosea 14: 1

O Israel, return unto the LORD thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity.

~Used , for reference!~

The turtles, Ella, Casey and April are at the Farmhouse for a while. Not much was going on, except for whatever separate activities, they each were participating in.

Right now, Leo and Ella inside of the kitchen. He was moping about his injured leg, and Ella was quietly enjoying her snack.

As they were each doing so, Ella turned towards Leo, "Hey Leo, you okay?" she asked him.

Leo quickly cocked his head upwards, to face her, "Y-yeah, I'm okay. Thanks for asking, Ella."

However, Ella wasn't really convinced with Leonardo's answer. She was able to tell, that he was lying, just by the sullen expression on her face, and the less-than-confident body posture.

Ella then shook her head, "No, you're not okay Leo! Don't lie to me!"

This then caught Leo's attention, as if offended, "What are you talking about, Ella! I told, I'm fine!" he argued, before clutching his injured leg in pain.

Ella then sighed, before telling Leo more calmly, "Look, Leo. I just wanted to let you know, that I'm here. You know, in case you need to tell me anything at all, that's on your mind and bothering you."

Leo then quickly shot Ella, some sort of dirty look, and told her as if he were bothered, "What even makes you say, that there's anything bothering me?!"

Ella then replied, calmly yet firmly, "Because I'm not blind towards the signs that you're showing me, Leo. Cuz' unlike you, I know when the ones that I truly care about, aren't feeling like themselves."

Leo then huffed angrily, before getting up to leave the room. However, Ella wasn't going to let him get away, that easily.

"I'm not done speaking with you, Hamato Leonardo. Get back here!"

Leo then stopped, but only to turn around scowling at Ella, and saying to her, "Fine then. And you know what? Just cuz you won't get off my shell about this, maybe you shouldn't even be here!"

Ella was shocked by Leo's words, as if she was rammed right into a brick wall of insults. However, she kept up her tough demeanour, before retorting with, "Then, maybe I shouldn't be in this world, either!"

Right after that happened, Ella ran out past a shocked Leo, and outside of the farmhouse and into the incoming fog.

Quickly noticing this, the others ran after her, calling her name.

But Ella kept on running, and only turned back as Leo burst through the fog. He looked at her desperately, before yelling "Ella!"

But, Ella was already out of their sight, and deeper into the fog.

What had he done?

Ella then eventually ran into the woods, and spent the entire night there, trying to think of why Leo got mad at he, like that.
