Mutation Day Party!

[brain_behind_purple]

Who:  Donatello (brain_behind_purple ) Michelangelo (hot_nunchaku_fury ) and anyone else who wants to attend!

What: Turtles 16th Mutation Day Party

When: September 29th, evening.

Where: Newbie Apartment Lobby

It had taken him a good few hours, but at last Donatello had finished setting up everything for the party. He had gotten everything that he felt was needed, snacks, party favors, decorations, working in a general store really paid off sometimes. He was expecting Mikey to bring the cake and most likely a bunch of other things since it was Mikey and all

Donnie gave everything one last look over, holding Paolo's digiegg tightly in his arms and wrapped in a purple blanket. To be honest, he hadn't planned to do anything for his Mutation Day. Not only because he had originally been alone, but after all that happened with the Black Out he hadn't felt that great. He was also feeling a little under the weather since he woke up, nothing too bad but he wasn't feeling great. He really just wanted to go back to bed.

But now that Mikey was back and since he had practiaclly begged them to, Donnie would go with the party. As long as Mikey was happy, hencould live with feeling a tad sick. That's all that mattered.

She wasn't about to move away from Donatello. This was nice. Too nice for her, she thought, but she was not about to say that out loud. This wasn't the time for her self-pity.

With a contented sigh, she smiled. "Any big plans now that you're sixteen?"

[brain_behind_purple]

Not that I can think of, I'm just going to keep doing what I always do. I might see if I can re-build the battle van that I made back home, if only I can find a subway car to use...

[wall_flower]

"You built a battle van? Really? That's...Donnie, that's amazing!" Her eyes lit up as she smiled at Donatello. With a kiss to the cheek, she added, "I-If there's anything you need my help with, I'll help. Okay?"

[brain_behind_purple]

[And he blushes even more]

Hehe... y-yeah, I modified a subway car to work as a battle van called the Shellraiser. Even Raph thought it was awesome. I'll definitely know if I need your help. Thanks for offering.

[Now it;s his turn to give Marley a kiss on the cheek.]

[wall_flower]

Marley gave a quiet chuckle as she blushed in return. She hoped that she'd be of...well, some help. She didn't have much in the way of talent when it came to technology or machines, but she'd try at least.

"Any time, Donnie. You know I'll help where I can."

[brain_behind_purple]

Yeah, I know. And that's why I love you.

[And you wear yourself out because of it... he thought as he placed a hand on his head, feeling a headache coming on. Stupid whatever he caught.]

[wall_flower]

She was about to respond to Donnie, but she noticed that movement. A frown touched her lips as worry glinted in her eyes.

"Donnie, are you okay?"

[brain_behind_purple]

Huh? Oh ugh... yeah, I just haven't felt too good since I got up. All it's been is a headache and lack of energy, must be because of working over-night. Don't worry Marley, I'm fine. It's nothing serious.

[wall_flower]

Yeah, good luck convincing her otherwise, Donnie. Marley pulled away from the former-turtle carefully, still very much worried.

"You were up all night? Before all this?" She worried her lower lip with her teeth. "Why don't you go sit down and I'll go get you something to eat and drink? If you're not feeling well, you should rest."

[brain_behind_purple]

It wasn't all night, just a few extra hours. Other than lack of energy I feel fine. But... okay Marley, I'll go sit down, but only for a few minutes. I need to make sure that Mikey doesn't do anything too crazy after all.

[wall_flower]

She offered a small smile, seemingly satisfied with the answer she was given. Blue eyes scouted the lobby for an empty seat, and finding a chair, she motioned to it for Donnie to see.

"Go ahead and sit down. I'll be back. Is there anything you want in particular?"

[brain_behind_purple]

No, anything is good. [He sits] Sorry to have to make you do this. You think I'd no better than to press myself to hard by now.

[wall_flower]

Marley waited until Donnie was settled before leaning forward to press a gentle kiss to his forehead. She ran her fingers through his hair before she straightened up.

"It's okay, Donnie. Really. I don't mind helping you. You've...done so much for me, so it's okay..." With a smile and brush of her fingers against Donnie's hand, she walked over to the table to gather up some food for him, as well as a drink. She came back not long after with a plate of pizza and a cup of orange soda.

"Here we go. I hope this is okay."

[brain_behind_purple]

Oh it;s better than okay, it's perfect. He placed Paolo gently on the floor and still within his range of sight before taking the items from Marley] You spoil em to much, you know that?

[wall_flower]

"Says the guy who carried me up a flight of steps." She wrinkled her nose at Donnie with a grin before kneeling down to check on the Digiegg. She readjusted the knitted wrap.

[brain_behind_purple]

I was only doing what any good boyfriend would do... that is what one would do, right?

[He slowly drank his soda after asking that. He wasn't sure how well he was doing as a boyfriend, although he felt like he was doing horribly. But if Marley said otherwise than he'd feel a bit better at least.]

[wall_flower]

Marley stopped her quiet fidgeting to look up at Donnie. She couldn't believe he was asking that sort of question. He really was worried about that? Really? After all he had done for her? What he was willing to do?

She smiled and stood up. She made sure that she wasn't going to knock his soda or plate out of his hands before she leaned forward and brushed her nose against Donnie's. In an attempt to reassure him, her lips met his in a gentle kiss.

"Donnie...you are a wonderful boyfriend. Okay? You care so much, and you do so much for me. So don't...ever think you're not. Please..."

[brain_behind_purple]

[The kiss took him by surprise, but he quickly gave into it. As he listened to Marley speak, a wave of relief washed over him. He was doing good. She thought that he was doing wonderful. It made any doubt in his mind die in that instant.

He placed the plate and cup on a nearby table before standing and wrapping his arms around the other teen. He kissed her on the cheek before resting his head on her shoulder.]

I love you Marley.

[wall_flower]

Marley slowly snaked her arms around Donnie, and she held him tight when his head touched her shoulder. Her nose nuzzled into his hair as she sighed, content to just hold him like this.

"I love you back," she whispered into his ear.

[brain_behind_purple]

[Donnie remained as he was for a minute or two, just savoring the moment. Out of everything, this was the best thing that he could have gotten for Mutation Day. Just getting to be with the girl that he loved, that was plenty for him.

When he felt his head throb harshly, he reluctantly puled back to sit down and place a hand on his temple.]

Dumb headache. Sorry Marley, maybe I'm worst than I thought...

[wall_flower]

A frown touched her lips as Donnie sat back down. "Donnie..." She reached out to take his hand in hers. "Maybe you should go lie down?" Marley didn't know what else to do really. She had some ibuprofen in her room. Would that work?

"I could go find some medicine. I'm sure I have something in my room."

[brain_behind_purple]

[Donnie stared at the outstretched hand before looking around at the partygoers. He didn't want to leave Mikey alone and he especially didn't want to ruin things for him due to feeling sick. But his head was feeling worst and he felt tired...

He sighed before reaching down and grabbing Paolo. He held the egg in one arm and grabbed Marley's hand with his free arm.]

Okay, I guess your right. I mean I took a pain reliever a little while ago, but i guess it's not helping...

[wall_flower]

"It could be you're just tired and sleeping will help. Come on. You can stay in my room, okay? It's closer, and if Mikey wants to check on you, he'll know where to go." She offered Donatello's hand a gentle squeeze as she led him up the stairs to her apartment. Hawkmon heard them enter and left the room, keeping his distance without a word while Marley got Donnie settled in her bed.

"Here. I'll get you a glass of water and some medicine for you."

[brain_behind_purple]

[Although still reluctant to go and leave Mikey like this, Donnie allowed Marley to lead him to her room. He noticed Hawkmon keeping distance form Marley, but he chose not to bring it up as he was eased down onto the bed. he made sure that Paolo was right beside him.]

Okay, whatever you say Marley. [Sighs] I just hope that Mikey isn't going to be too worried.

[wall_flower]

She brushed her fingers through Donatello's hair before moving about to gather up a bottle of water and a couple of ibuprofen.

"Don't worry, Donnie. I'll go back down there when we've got you settled and taken care of, and I'll let him know." She sat down on the edge of the bed next to Donnie, holding out the two pills and the bottle. "I need to tell him hi, anyway, so I will go and talk to him. If you need anything, you can have Hawkmon call me, okay?"
