Frostfall (Leonardo X Female Reader)

Plans unfold

"What the hell are you doing here?" April asked, clearly shocked to see you in the lair with the turtles.

"We needed her for something." Raph replied.

"How it is good to see you, April." Splinter greeted with a warm smile.

"It's good to see you too, Master Splinter. I hope we can continue our training soon."

"Whenever you wish."

April then turned to the turtles. "Guys... I'm sorry for everything." she apologized, ignoring you for a bit so she could say what she came here to say.

"You're sorry? But we're the ones who screwed up." Leo contradicted.

"I get it. It was an accident, I know you guys didn't mean it. More importantly, you guys are my friends and I promise to never hold a grudge against you ever again." She finished before walking up to Donnie. "Thank you for always being there for me, even when I didn't want you to." She then hugged him and kissed his cheek, making his eyes turn into hearts and giggle like a 5-year-old.

"You're the best April!" Mikey beamed, giving her finger guns. He then turned to you and wrapped his arm around your shoulders. "We met your adopted sister! She's so cool! Literally, hehe."

Drops of sweat trickled down your forehead as the tension in the room arised. April glared at you and clenched her fists. Splinter noticed the tension but decided not to say anything for now.

"Sis, I can explain!" You started and she crossed her arms, still keeping the glare.

"Oh please, do enlighten me." She sassed.

"I accidentally stumbled into Leo when he was fighting the Kraang. Days went by and the guys asked me about Holbein and how he might be working with the Kraang. I helped out, yadda yadda yadda and now we're here." You explained rapidly but her look didn't change.

"Did you know I was friends with them?" April asked, rubbing the bridge of her nose and you nodded. "And you didn't tell me because?"

"I was going to but lately, you don't want to talk to me."

April huffed, rubbing her temples next, trying to ease the headache she was experiencing because of the stress of her father and now the anger that you kept this secret from her. You were about to speak but your phone rang, so you picked up to hear Michael's distressed voice on the end of the line, asking you if you'd seen Jeremy. With a heavy sigh, you told him no and you suggested that you both play Apocalypse of the Damned to relieve him and he agreed. You ended the call and turned to the turtles, Splinter and April.

"I gotta shoot, my friend needs me." You sighed but managed to flash a smile at them. "I'll see you all... whenever I'm free I guess."

"Need a lift? I can take you there in the Shellraiser." Leo proposed and you nodded.

"That would be nice, thanks."

Leo led you to the large vehicle that looked to be a subway car that was heavily remade and painted. You both went inside and you were amazed by how it looked. There were four stations; one with a computer, keyboards and video monitors, one with a map, one with levers and buttons and finally the driver's seat. Leo sat down and you stood next to him, looking around for some kind of seat.

"Uh yeah no there aren't really any seats. It's made for us to patrol and fight enemies." Leo explained, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.

"It's okay, I'll hang on the handles." You replied, wrapping your fingers around the handle above you.

You gave him the address of Michael's house and he drove the car away. The Shellraiser went through the dark subway rails of the underground until Leo pushed a button which opened a secret gate that led to the outside. He drove through and you were both in the night streets of New York City. It was too bad there was no window on the Shellraiser, the city lights are beautiful in the night. You looked over at the blue-eyed leader whose eyes were fixated on the monitor that showed the road in front of him. You snapped out of your trance upon realizing that you were staring at him for too long which made your cheeks warm up. Leo's eyes glanced at your blushing face and cracked a small smile; this was nice. Just you and him in the shellraiser on your way to Michael's house.
