Lover Of My Mutated Heart

I shook my head and sat at the table and took his hand. "Raph, if you do exactly what we say, you will be able to train before you know it. All you have to do is rest for four or five weeks, and we'll take care of the rest. So do not argue with him or it'll be even longer, do you understand?" By now everyone, including April and Casey, was standing at the entrance of my lab. Raph saw them and looked away from all of us. I took on a motherly tone and sternly said, "Raphael Hamato, I asked you a question and I expect you to answer it!" I grabbed his face, gently squishing his cheeks between my fingers. "Yeah, I undeahstand you's." I smiled and patted his head like he was a little kid who couldn't have their way. I turned towards the others and sighed. "He has a broken leg," was all I said as I looked at their reactions. Master Splinter widened his eyes, Leo, Mikey, and April looked concerned and worry. Casey only looked away guiltily. "Casey?" He snapped his head to look at me and I saw remorse and love in his eyes. "I need you to stay, everyone has to go," I emphasized has so they could leave immediately. Donnie looked at me in confusion. "Something is going on between them, Donnie," I thought to Donnie. He glance at them and then looked and nodded. "What do you think is going on between them?" He thought back. I mouthed to him, "A relationship." His eyes widened and nodded as if believed it was possible. "Guys?" We both started. They looked at us. Donnie nodded towards me and they both looked at me. I raised an eyebrow and looked them both with a warm smile. "Are you two in a relationship?" I asked them as they looked at us uneasy. A minute passed and then another. I nodded and asked Casey, "How did this happen? I need the truth, and if you want I can send Donnie out for a few minutes," They looked at him and nodded. Donnie looked at me and then back at them and then smiled. He left without a word and I looked back them. "You guys are dating and don't want anyone else to know, right?" They nodded and Casey held his hand protectively. They both blushed and looked at each other with as much love that I have for Donnie. "Now, what happened to that leg?" I asked. They blushed but Casey answered, "Well, he told me he loved me, then ran so I chased him. We fought and wrestled, and then we um......" He looked at Raph and he smiled, nodding his head. He continued, "After a while we started to um......kiss and I asked him out. When we came back he was limping but he told he was fine and that I should get home because it was late. So yeah," He said the last part quietly and chuckled. I nodded and wrote a note for Donnie explaining that it happened when they were wrestling. "Okay, this happened while you were wrestling. Casey would you like to stay for the surgery?" He glance at Raph and nodded. I nodded and called for Donnie. He came in and rubbed his hands together. "Should we start?" We all nodded.
