Donnie | Leo | Raph | Mikey

"Hey ____, Have you seen Dee. Dinner is ready and I don't want him skipping dinner." Mikey calls out behind his shoulder to you who was setting up the table. The mention of Donnie made you perk. "No. I haven't seen him for a while." 

Mikey then sighs while he dishes everyone's plates. "That turtle, He's properly in his lab doing his projects. You don't mind getting him?" 

"Sure big guy." You nodded, giving him a smile while everyone started to come into the kitchen but no Donnie. Weird. You quickly waved to everyone and made your way over to Donnie's lab. As you marched your way over, you couldn't hear the tinkering or whirring of any sorts, you took a peek in and saw no one. Not every Donnie who is usually in here 24/7. 

Your eyebrows furrowed in confusion then looked behind you to see if he was anywhere else. Then you remember the last time you saw him was when he was making his way to his room right after you came to visit. No response or "Hello" or "Salutations". Nothing. He looked completely out of it like he was about to burst. 

His eyes did look distant as he walked passed you. But you didn't want to make things worse and leave space for him. 

Now you were standing in front of the curtain that covered Donnie's room. You could hear whimpering and quiet little sobs. Immediately you slowly opened the curtain and knocked three times like how you and Donnie both do when entering a room. Not wanting to frighten him as you looked around. 

His battle shell placed against the bed, looking slightly up to see Donnie holding a pillow around his head, trying to cover the noise of any sorta as he cried. This instantly broke your heart, your eyes softened then spotted a glass of water and some Ibuprofen. 

Headache. 

You know Donnie hated his headaches. Making it hard for him to concentrate and the constant noises making it far more worse than it already was. 

"Hey Dee, Mikey wants to see if you want dinner?" You spoke, seeing if your voice could reach him from where you were standing, Donnie slightly twitched. You let out a little wine yourself, you didn't like seeing Donnie like this, so you walked quietly towards him. 

"Oh Dee..." You cooed as you crouched at the edge of the bed, Donnie then turned around, his hands still gripping onto the pillow as he weakly looked at you with tears in his eyes. Your eyes held worry. "Hey... it's just me.." You quietly started to whisper. 

"Headache?" You asked Donnie to nod. 

"Looks like you took the pill already... you just need to wait until it kicks in..." You whispered gently, moving your hand near his but not touching to see if he would pull away. You looked over to the entrance for the room, wondering if anyone was asking about you and Donnie now until you slightly jolted at the sudden touch. 

Looking down to see Donnie's finger touching yours. 

You let out a small huffed laugh. Then hummed. "How about this.. while we wait, I can give you some shell rubs? Would that be okay with you..?" You quietly spoke, hoping that you could help your boyfriend in any way. Donnie whimpered while giving you a slow and short nod, a little smile tugged his snout. 

"Okay.. Make some room so you can lay on my lap, Okay Hun..." You smiled.

Donnie now laying comfortably, his head placed on a pillow you have placed on your lap to make sure his headache wasn't going to get worse. His arms wrapped around your waist while he laid on his stomach. 

His shell now presents in front of you while you gently and slowly traces circles on his soft shell. 

The current churrs came from Donnie as he relaxed, his purple bandanna slightly sliding off his face while his eyes were closed. You were thankful you could help Donnie with his headaches. But you need to make sure that it doesn't happen again, not when he's overwhelmed. 

You could see Donnie slowly breathing, his back rising up and down with each breath as you continued with the shell rubs. You could also see his little tail wagging in appreciation of you helping him. Slowly but surely he starts to drift off to sleep. His grip on your clothes relaxing, you smiled and giving his head a little pet with your free hand. 

You hope that next time, Donnie would ask for help instead of dealing with it himself. You hate seeing him overwhelmed and sensitive. 

You look over to see his phone on the table beside his bed, you carefully reach over and grab the phone, making sure you weren't to wake Donnie up. You then unlocked his phone and went to his messages and started to text to Mikey about what happened. 

'Hey Mike, this is ______. Donnie had some trouble with something and won't be able to attend dinner with you guys, but make sure to leave some leftovers for him and me. :) He's resting so no need to check in until later.' 

Sent.

Placing his phone down on the bed nearby, you looked down to see a more calm and relaxed Donnie while he slept peacefully. You let out a gentle hum, leaning down to give him a gentle kiss on his forehead. He seemed to scrunch his snout and nuzzled more closer into your stomach or pillow you should say. 

You let out a huffed chuckle and continued with those gentle shell rubs. 

Your over working turtle boyfriend definitely needs it.
