chapter four learning to love again
"So we've been here for three months, I've been out that long?"
His voice suddenly sounded seductive enough to make a bunch of fangirls swoon and sigh and even faint
"You had us worried sick leo, raph barely slept"
"Eh it was nothing" as he slurped on his nice hot cup of tea
Aaron walked into the living room with iced tea and walking up to leo offering it
"Thanks, Aaron right?" As he slowly sipped on it
"Yes! My mom told me stories about you the most!" As he waved his hands in the air
He suddenly looked at her while she was cleaning up after the others
Rolling his eyes as he focused on something else
"Oh! Leo me and donnie were working on your mutagen medicine in the shed while you were out"
As Leona grabbed it from by the lamp and pouring it out on a spoon feeding him it
"That.. that tastes like its supposed to come out of me not go into me" in an annoyed tone
"Hey guys I'll be outside if you need me don't stay up too late." As she stood up and began heading outside
Once she was outside she turned to the pipe backed away and ran at it jumping and climbing up it
One leg over and the other, roll over and sit up
Sighing as she stared at the full moon shining upon her
Slowly taking her mask and hoodie off as she closed her eyes feeling the breeze
Hearing laughter inside made her smile a bit leaning against the wood
She pulled out a photo of her with the gang before her life changed and had to leave
A sudden thud made her flinch and turn to see a green figure towering over her
"Can I join you?" Raph suddenly asks
She nodded as she quickly put the photo away and tied her mask back on
He gently sat down criss cross apple sauce
"Leona. You just left last night. Can. You-"
"Tell you everything that's happened? Fine.. I'm only gonna say this once"
Ever since that day I left, it has been heartbreaking and hard but somehow I've managed to live, and found my old farmhouse I used to live with my parents and turned it into a somewhat decent home.
But. Almost every night I missed. You no matter how hard I tried to forget you because I've left you in the past but somehow I felt as if I couldn't accept it, every day every hour every second.
Almost everything reminded me of you for some reason, but I didn't regret my decision because you yourself said you didn't like kids, and you had your anger problems so I told myself it was all for the best
I also felt as if I lost my family, I missed every single one of you guys especially leo even if he still hates me.
When I finally had Aaron he changed my life, made me learn to smile again and laugh as I took care of him.
He doesn't have any friends but he doesn't mind as he likes to be alone like I did
When he turned four it was sad, I can't protect him forever, and eventually he'd leave his mother behind without ever knowing his father or my friends
That's when you guys came around again, it was like the light finally came in and then I saw you, suddenly every memory every smile and laughter we made came rushing back but I couldn't feel the love nor the butterflies
I'm pretty sure I'm broken again since I can't learn to love right now, but I'm just glad he'll grow up with my friends that he can call his friends
So yeah. That's basically what happened while I've been gone these past
"You.. seem to have been through a lot especially alone" as he looked at her
She only stared at the moon not giving any response to him
"Hey. Look at me" as he gently grabs her chin
A sudden breeze of wind caused her hoodie to fall off as her hair flew through the wind
He then gently began to untie her mask falling in her lap
Their eyes meet as he faintly smiles
"After four long years your still beautiful"
Suddenly her heart began to flutter faster as a faint blush washes on her cheek
"Your not broken. You just.. think you've forgotten how to love. But it'll come back to you one way or another"
As he hugged her, she buried herself into his plastorn hugging him tightly
The first time she felt warmth and protected
She missed him, not realizing how bad she wanted him back
"We should head inside." As he stood up lifting her up as well
She used her telekinesis power to open the window to her room
They both stepped inside until one of her lamps turned on
"Mom! Bedtime!" As he held one of his toys
Leona whispered something into raphs ear as he nodded
She held his hand and they both sat in the bed in front of him
"'Hey Aaron.. remember your father?"
"Mommmm I already know everything about him, he was a strong fighter he loved you so much he gave you the world, you and him met by rooftop, me does wish to meet him but must wait till death or in dreams"
"Aaron.. your father.. is still alive"
Suddenly his eyes shot up with glee
"Really?!"
"Yes and.. hes right in front of you"
