***Leo's Pov******************
H

annah just kept staring at me before she moved away, letting go of my hand. Confused, I walked closer to her, reaching out again, but she kept moving away. "You okay?" I asked. She didn't respond, she just looked at the ground with a blank expression. I decided to move closer to her again and gently cupped her chin, lifting her face up so our eyes met once again. "Hey, what's wrong?" I asked. She stared at me again, searching my eyes as if looking for an answer of some sort before moving her face away from me. I watched as she hugged her arms with her eyes closed. I cupped her cheek this time and made her look at me again. "Hey, it's okay. Whatever's wrong, you can tell me"I said, softly. She shook her head and pulled her face away from me again. "It's nothing, I'm fine..." she simply said. "Hannah, I know you. I know when something's bothering you" I said. She stared at me, clearly upset. "You don't know me" she said.

I stared at her, confused. Where did that come from? I reached for her, but again, she stopped me. "Leonardo, listen to me. I can't stay"she said. I stared at her. "What? What do you mean you can't stay? You're back home" I said. "No. No, I'm not. The only reason why I'm here is because you brought me here" she said, with her arms crossed. I was surprised. She wasn't staying? "But... why won't you stay? I don't understand" I asked. "I have my reasons" she simply said. After saying that, she started to walk away. At an instant, I grabbed her arm and pulled her back and yet again... our eyes met. "Hannah, please.... don't leave again. Let's talk about things, it's been three years"I said, nearly begging. She looked away to avoided my eyes. "....I'm sorry..." and just like that, she walked out of the dojo. I stood there, not knowing what to do. Hannah. She's changed. She isn't who she used to be. What happened to the girl who could always tell me anything? What happened to my best friend? What happened to the girl... I once loved and still probably do...?

Time had past and April left because she said she had to study for a test she had on Monday with Casey and another friend of hers. So after she left, Hannah walked out of the dojo but Leo wasn't behind her. Then Leo appeared and looked around. I was watching TV, Donnie was in his lab and Raph was punching the Punching Dummy. I looked back to catch Leo staring at Hannah, who was leaning against the wall at the enterance of the lair with her arms crossed. A sly smile appeared on my face as I got up from the floor and walked over to Leo. I remembered about the huuuge crush Leo had on her when we were kids. I think he still has them. So... TIME TO TEASE HIM!!

I walked up behind him as he kept looking at her."Ya know, if you take a picture it'll last longer"I said, smirking. Leo quickly looked at me. "What?!" he said."If you take a picture of her, it'll last longer. Then, you can put it in your scrapbook of all the pictures you have of Hannah!" I said, loudly. Hannah quickly turned her gaze toward us when she heard her name. Leo's face instantly turn red and he glared at me. "I do NOT have a scrapbook of her!! That's just plain weird!! I am not Donnie!"he said. "HEY!! I heard that and I do NOT do that either!!" Donnie shouted from his lab. I smiled at Leo and nudged him."Come on, bro! You know you want to~" I said. Leo's face grew into a darker shade of red as he growled at me. I sweat dropped and ran away, with an angry Leo chasing me.

I know he's gonna kick my butt after this, but it was totally worth it!!

•••••Hannah's Pov••••••••••••••••••••
I watched as Leonardo chased Michelangelo around the lair. I shook my head as I facepalmed. They REALLY haven't changed at all. I looked around and memories started to flow into my mind. It's been about three years since I last saw this place and I get a feeling that if I don't leave soon, the guys and Master won't let me go sooner or later. I sighed and looked away from the lair. Why did I even help them out when the Kraang were attacking them? If I hadn't, I wouldn't be in this place again. But... then again, at the same time.... I'm happy. But, I'm not going to show it. I have to be strong and continue my search. I swore that I wouldn't stop until I found them again and that's what I'm going to do.

No matter what it takes or how long. Although, it's been three years and I've yet to find anything at all that can help me find them quicker. I swear to God, if those slimy blobs of brain have them, then I will stop at nothing to get them back. I know I made a promise to her, but I miss her and the others so much. I have to find them and I'll die trying if that's the case. Because I was so lost in my thoughts, I hadn't noticed the person standing behind me. I felt someone put the hand on my shoulder and I turned my head around to look at them. A turtle with ocean blue eyes stood there. Of course, it was him. Leonardo....

****Leo's Pov******************
I had noticed Hannah lost in thought about something after I was done chasing Mikey. I'm still gonna kill him though. Anyways, I walked over to her but she didn't notice me. So, I put my hand on her shoulder. When I did, she instantly turned her head to looked at me. I could tell by her eyes that she was too deep in her thoughts and she was worried about something. But soon, she replaced that look with a serious face again. "What do you want?"she snapped. "Are you okay? You seem worried about something" I said. She looked away. "I'm perfectly fine, Leonardo" she simply said. I stared at her before something popped in my mind.

I smiled and looked at her. "Don't move! I'll be right back!" I said before running off to find my brothers. I found all of them in Donnie's lab. "Hey guys! I have a great idea!"I said. "What's up?" asked Donnie. I smiled. Next thing we knew, we were in front of that door I saw earlier. I opened it and we smiled once we saw what was inside."Okay, let's get to work!"I said. They nodded and went in the room and closed to the door behind us. Hannah is going to love this surprise!

------Five hours later----------------------

•••••Hannah's Pov••••••••••••••••••••
I was sitting in the living room, looking at the ground. I was so confused. I need to leave but.... I want to stay at the same time. Ugh, I should have just left the minute I had the chance. I soon sensed someone walking towards me and I looked up to see Hamto standing there. I stood up and bowed my head before looking at him. "Yes, Sensei?"I said. He cleared his throat before speaking. "I know it's been three years since we've last have seen you and I know you're still on your search. But, perhaps if you were to tell them..... maybe they can help you" he said. "They still don't know... do they?"I asked. "No, I have not told them because I promised you I would not. But, because you also said you would do it"he said. "When the time was right..."I muttered. "My dear child, that moment happened years ago. It is time they knew" he said as he placed a hand on my shoulder.

I sighed. I never told the boys about my secret because the day I was supposed to tell them was the day I left. On my thirteenth birthday. "I know you are scared, but I trust me, they will not stop trusting in you or see you any differently" he said. "I know, I just.... need a little more time before I come clean... "I replied and he nodded. Then the boys came in, looking like they had something planned. Leonardo walked over to me with a smile."Hannah, I need you to close your eyes for us" he said. "Why?"I asked with my arms crossed. "Please? We have something to show you!" said Michelangelo, excitedly. I sighed and closed my eyes but then felt someone go behind me and put their hands over my eyes. "Leonardo!!"I said, trying to get his hand off my eyes.

"Nope, Donnie. But nice try. Anyways, I'm going to make sure you keep your eyes closed. Also cuz, uhhhhh... Leo told me to" he said, laughing nervously and I could hear Leo laugh softly. I groaned in protest but Donatello didn't remove his hands. Soon, I felt someone else grabbed my hands and lead me away. My guest, Leonardo or Mikey, because Rapheal wasn't the physical type. Soon, we stopped and I heard a door open. Then, Donatello took his hands off my eyes and right in front of me was... my old room. "Surprise!!" They yelled. I stood there, speechless. "Wha--- H-How did you---" I started but was cut off by Donatello. "We found your old room and cleaned it up for you! Well, actually, Leo found it" said Donatello. I stared at Leonardo, who just smiled at me.

He then walked over to me and held my hands. I looked up at him and our eyes met once more. "Welcome home, Hannah. I mean it" he said with the sweetest smile before hugging me gently, but firmly at the same time. Soon, his brothers joined in the hug. I looked over to see Hamto, smiling. I honestly didn't know what to say or what to do. They soon let go of the hug. I looked at them before clearing my throat. "Thank you" I simply said. They frowned. "You're not happy?" Michelangelo asked."No no, I am!" I said. "You have a funny way of showing it" said Raphael, crossing his arms. I growled and glared at him and he glared right back. Soon, my satchel started to move and a black and white female cat popped it's head out of my bag. "A kitty cat!" Michelangelo said. The cat jumped out of my satchel and hopped from my old bed to onto my shoulders.

"I don't suppose you all remember my cat, Delilah?" I said. Michelangelo became even more excited and happier. "Delilah?! Last time I saw you, you were a kitten!"he said as he petted her. Delilah purred happily. Donatello and Raphael laughed. "No way! You've had her all this time?" Donnie asked, smiling at the cat. "She was asleep" I said. "During a battle with Kraang bots in a bag?" Raph asked. "She's a heavy sleeper" I admitted as they all laughed. Leonardo walked up to me, smiling. "Just like the good old days" he said. I stared at him and he just smiled. I couldn't help the small smile that escaped my face. "Alright my children, it is getting late and you will need your rest tomorrow. Off to bed" Hamato said. We all nodded and he and the others left my room. "Wait, but-" "You will stay here for the night. After all, the boys fixed it up for you" Hamato cut me off before leaving. Delilah hopped off my shoulder and landed on my bed. I looked at her before looking at Leonardo. He rubbed the back of his neck.

"So, I guess this is goodnight?"he said, chuckling nervously. I stared at him before nodding, rubbing my arms. "Yeah, I guess so..." I said. We both stared at each other before Leonardo moved a bit closer to me. I moved back a bit but he kept moving closer until I felt my back against a wall. He moved closer until our bodies flushed against each other and our face were a few inches away. We kept looking into each other's eyes and I felt Leonardo moved his face closer to mine. I felt my heart skip a bit and I just....waited. But nothing came. He blinked his eyes a few time before stepping back. "I, uh....I-I'm sorry I-I didn't to.... I'm just gonna...."he said, nervously as I just stared at him. "Well, uh.... goodnight!" he said and walked out of my room, closing the door behind him. I stood there before sitting down on my bed. Delilah brushed against me as I stroked her back. My heart was racing and I felt my cheeks warming up. What had just happened?
