Leo's POV

Its been four years since the Krang are gone and that the Shredder's dead, so is master Splinter. I miss him, we all do. Ever since he's gone its been my job to take care of my brothers. I became the sensei or the master as Raph would call me, which I do not enjoy to be called that cause every time he does call me master, I remember Splinter and then I'm sad and slightly emotional for the rest of the day but I don't let it show, obviously! April's a news reporter and she's doing pretty well, Casey's a major league hockey player and Karay, I mean Miwa, is the leader of the foot clan. She visits now and then but she moved to Japan after the Shredder was defeated (not to brag but, yeah, I did it! Just kidding we all had a part to do). Bradford, Xever, and stockboy are back to normal, that's all I know about where they're at and Tiger claw went back to wherever the shell he came from. So everybody that got mutated are back to normal, thanks to Don. It took a lot of work and time but yeah they're ok... most of them... I think... Anywho, it has been a while since we actually spent some time as a family. You know away from beating the purple dragons, catching mutants to mutate them back, catching criminals and keeping an eye on the city. I look at Mickey and he just grew up so fast. Its been so long since the last time we were all together having fun. So I decided that this year, we're going to leave the city for the holidays.

L: Hey April!

A: Hey Leo!

L: I was wondering if me and the guys could stay at the farmhouse for the holidays, you know, spend some family time and take a break from the city life.

A: Sure, sounds like fun!

L: Awesome thanks, April.

A: No problem Leo.

D: Hey April!

A: Oh, hey Don, I need a bit of help with some paperwork can you help me out?

D: Sure thing, let's go in the lab, it'll be quieter.

Don and April went to the lab, Mickey was watching a cartoon and Raph was still sleeping... To be honest, he's been acting kinda weird lately but he says he's fine. That and he gets pissed when we ask him if he's okay to many times.

~Timte skip/3 hours~

L: Alright everybody in the dojo, Mickey can you go get Raph?

M: Sure thing bro!

Narrators POV

Michelangelo jumps off the couch and heads towards Raphael's room. He sees that Raph's light is open so he knew that he was awake (when they woke him up he was grumpy all day). Mickey nocks on the door.

Raph's POV

Ugh! Feel like shit. Well, the fact that I had a couple' beers last night didn' help, well, more like 12 beers but at least I got to be drunk with Casey. What time is it? 9:38 am, holy shit I really slept in! How d'I even get in my hammock? Probably Leo dragged me in bed, knowin' him. Casey's spendin' the holidays with us so it's cool. Hope April can too but she's always so damn busy. It ain't no fun without her! *sigh* Wish spike was here. A least I could talk to him. I've been havin' these weird ass feelings lately. Been watchin' a lot of X-rated movies too (what do you expect from a 20-year-old, single, male turtle). It's weird cause I only get those feelings when I'm close to Leo... Idk probably just me. *nock, nock, nock*

R: Ugh! WHAT!

M: It's me, Mickey! Leo wants us in the dojo.

R : *sight* Fine, I'm comin'.

M: Okay, well, hurry up we're waiting for ya!

What does Leo want this time? Ugh, hope it ain't for trainin'. Not in the mood and my head hurts.

Narrator POV

Raph gets out of his hammock and puts on his gear and mask. He heads for the door but waits a moment and remembers his thoughts about Leo and his feelings. He shakes his head and leaves his room. As he heads for the dojo he sees Donnie saying goodbye to April, he gives her a hug and... kisses her... ON-THE-LIPS! What the shell, says the red-clad turtle to himself. He decided to spy on them. (FYI: clad means clothed, for people who didn't know, like me, until now...)

A: I'll see you tonight?

D: Yeah I'll meet you at your place.

A: Ok, don't forget it's at...

D: 10:30, I know! You better go or you're gonna be late for that meeting of yours.

A: Yeah they don't like retards!

D: (-_-)...

A: Oh you know what I mean!

D: HA HA HA HA!

A: Whatever, I love you, smart ass!

D: I love you too baby!

They kiss one last time and go there separate ways. April leaves the lair and Donnie walks to the dojo.

R: What the shell just happened? Is Don, going out with, April???

Once Donatello is out of sight Raphael comes 's out of hiding and walks to the dojo confused but also curious. How long have they been dating? Are they dating? Does Casey know? Why hasn't he told any of us? Why haven't THEY told us? So many questions traveled his mind. Has he walks in he sees Donatello and Michelangelo sitting in front of Leonardo.

D: Um, Raph, you ok? Looks like you've seen a ghost.

R: Uh? Yeah, I'm fine.

He sits beside Donatello and looks at Leonardo. He's getting those weird feelings again. What are those feelings, thought Raphael.

R: Anyway, why are we here "master Leo"?

L: First of all, don't call me that, secondly we are going to be leaving the city for the...

M, D, R: WHAT???

M: Why we leavin' bro?

R: We can't move, this city needs us?!

D: Even if we did, where would we live?

L: SHIZUKANI!!! (means quiet in Japanese)

His younger brothers stop talking and the room is quiet. Leo takes a deep breath.

L: If you guys would let me finish. We are NOT moving out.

The others sighed in relief.

R: Jesus Leo, don't scare us like that!

M: Yeah dude! You almost gave me a heart attack!

L: What made you guys think... ugh, you know what, never mind. As I was saying before I was interrupted, we're going to April's farmhouse for Christmas.

M: AWESOME!

D: That'll be fun!

R: Why?

The others look at Raph.

L: Well, why not?

R: Why would we leave the city to celebrate Christmas?

L: Because, Raph, think about it! When's the last time we actually spent some quality time together, as a family?

D: Two days ago, when we watched the sex movie Raph showed us. You know, the one with the...

L: Yes Donnie, I know, I was there! I was sitting right beside you, remember?

M: So what are we waiting for? Let's pack and go already!

The turtles excited, run to pack up their stuff. They pack up food, comics, money, alcohol and more. Once they're done they put everything in the shellraiser, ready to leave for tomorrow. Don asked if April could come too, Leonardo couldn't disagree, after all, she is family and it is her farmhouse. Leonardo told them that Karai was coming to celebrate Christmas with them. They were thrilled to finally hear that she was coming over. They missed her and haven't seen her in a while, so they really can't wait to see Karai, after all these years! After they were done packing Don made popcorn and Leo suggested another one of those X-rated movies. They all stared at him since it was a very awkward proposal. They all agreed and watched the movie with no complaints.

~Time skip/45min~

After a while, Raphael notices that Donatello isn't present. He looks at the clock and sees it's 10:46 pm.
