Maddie almost fullyĀ leapedĀ out of her spot on the bed her and her husband shared as she suddenly awoke, her eyes darting around the room before taking a deep breath, relaxing herself.Ā
She didnāt need to use the bathroomā¦
And she madeĀ sureĀ all of the kids (+ Ozzie) were in their bedsā¦
So why did she feel soā¦uneasy?
Tom broke through his sleep at the sudden movement from his wife, holding her hand as he rubbed it with his thumb gently, āEverything okay, love?ā He mumbled out groggily.Ā
Maddie couldnāt help but let out a small chuckle at her husbandās sleepy voice, giving his hand a quick kiss as she got up from the bed, āIām fine, babe. I justā¦I-I justā¦ā She trailed off.
The cop yawned, raising a brow, āHaving those random feelings of uneasiness again?āĀ
The woman in purple pajamas nodded.Ā
āGonna go check up on our kids?ā
She nodded once more.
āM'kayā¦ā The famous Donut Lord yawned, drifting back to sleep, āJust call me if you need anythingā¦ā He mumbled as he closed his eyes and snored like no tomorrow.
Maddie rolled her eyes fondly, putting on her fluffy purple robe that was hoisted on a clothing hanger as put on her house slippers, going upstairs to the attic.Ā
The nurse quietly made her way to the attic, her heart racing with a sort ofā¦adrenalineĀ as she made her way to the bedsā¦
ā¦Although, she didnāt knowĀ why.
First, she made her way to Tails' bed, who, was soundly sleeping peacefully underneath his blankets. Maddie kissed his forehead, adjusting his noise canceling headphones on his ears as she further tucked him in as she made her way to Sonicā¦
And ohhhhhh, Sonicā¦
The kid was basicallyĀ sprawledĀ along his bed like a used upĀ rag-dollā¦
ā¦Which, Maddie didnāt know whether to mark it off asĀ concerning orĀ impressive.Ā
Maybe both.
The adult wrapped the blue hedgehog in his favorite blanket, kissing his forehead and subtly giggling as she saw him smile in his sleep at the kiss.
Lastly, she made her Knuckles' bedā¦
ā¦That was missing, wellā¦Knuckles.Ā
The woman took a deep breath, taking her phone out of her robe pocket as she tried to calm herself.Ā
He was going to absolutelyĀ GET ITĀ if he went out 'adventuring' again.Ā
Maddie couldĀ notĀ handle another week asking random people in Green Hills of the red echidnaās whereaboutāsā¦
ā¦Her heart just could not take that amount of stress anymore!
And if Wade was even theĀ SLIGHTESTĀ bit responsible he was going toĀ GET ITĀ too.
The brown eyed human made her way downstairs, relief washing over her as she saw the back quills of a familiar red fellow sitting at the bottom of the stairs that led to the kitchen.Ā
āā¦Knuckles?ā She quietly said.Ā
The echidna swiftly turned around at the womanās words, his pupils sharpening before softening upon realizing who was behind him.Ā
As he met her concerned yet loving gaze, he looked away, focusing on the wooden floor as if it was the mostĀ interestingĀ thing as of right now.
Wellā¦at least it wasĀ justĀ Madeline.Ā
Or 'Pretzel Woman' as the red themed teenager liked to call her.
It honestly could have beenĀ wayĀ worseā¦
ā¦The blue themed hedgehog could have awokenĀ insteadĀ of Maddieā¦
ā¦AndĀ thatĀ would have been a wholeĀ otherĀ problem Knuckles did not have the timeĀ orĀ patience for.Ā
The teenager forced himself to relax slightly, his shoulders still tense in case of anything orā¦anyonedeciding toā¦surpriseĀ him.
Because he was anĀ echidna warrior!Ā He simply just didĀ notĀ get sneaked up on.Ā
āPretzel Woman.ā He hummed, āI would not have expected you to be awake at such hoursā¦āĀ
āI wish I could say the same for you, sweetheartā¦ā The 'Pretzel Woman' in question chuckled lightly, coming down and sitting on the stair the small teen was stifly sitting on, āWhat are you doing up, love?ā
āI am keeping watch.ā Knuckles stated simply, his seating spot remaining on the steps but his eyes darting in every which way around the house, seeming to look for a nonexistent threat.Ā
OrĀ grapes.Ā Those he willĀ alwaysĀ look out for.
āDidā¦I wake you?ā His violet eyes morphing into one of guilt, āI am sorry if that is the caseā¦I tried to be as silent as possible whilst scouting this evening.āĀ
āNo no!Ā Not at all.ā Maddie quickly assured, āI-I justā¦had a certainā¦feelingĀ to get up, y'know?āĀ
But Knuckles didĀ notĀ know, only quietly nodding his head as he tried to make sense of what the chocolate eyed human was stating, āā¦I see.ā He hummed once more, now looking up as he peered on the outside door, his eye ridges creasing together.Ā
Maddie fiddled with her fingers anxiously, not appreciating the sudden silence as she tried to collect her thoughts to think ofĀ whatĀ to say next.
Because, truth be toldā¦Knuckles has been doing thisā¦'guarding'Ā business ever since he came to live in Green Hills.Ā
And it was somewhatĀ niceĀ the first weekā¦
A tad bitĀ jarringĀ the second weekā¦
But now it was theĀ thirdĀ week.Ā
And Maddie cannot recallĀ oneĀ time she has seen Knuckles shut his eyes for more than aĀ second.
āYou are distressed.ā The short teenager concluded bluntly, observing Maddieās facial expression and body language, āAre you perhapsā¦cold?āĀ
The woman let a small smile strech to her features at that, āIām not cold, sweetheart. But thank you for your concern.ā She said gently, resting her hand on the teenagerās shoulder but drawing it back as the teeanger in question stifened further at the sudden contact.Ā
āButā¦IĀ amĀ worried.ā The purple cladded woman stated, wellā¦worriedlyĀ as she put her hands on her lap.Ā
The fifteen year oldās eye ridges knitted together in slight confusion, letting out a small: āOh.āĀ
He looked up at her, āWhy is that?ā
The nurse started, āYouāve been staying upāā
āScouting.ā Knuckles politely corrected.
āāscoutingā¦ā She corrected herself, āā¦forĀ three weeks straight, Knux. Arenāt you tired?ā
āNo.ā The violet eyed teen uttered, āAn echidna warrior is only tired when theyĀ needĀ be. Which, I am not.ā He stated, ironically burying back a small yawn that was bubbling in his throat.
Which, didĀ notĀ go unnoticed by Maddie.Ā
āEveryone gets tired eventuallyā¦ā The human said, āItās not healthy to justā¦skip sleep,Ā hun. Itās not good for you.āĀ
āOnlyĀ IĀ know what is good and what isĀ notĀ good for me, Pretzel Woman.ā The red echidna huffed, completely brushing off the otherās concern, āI will sleep when my duty is done.ā
āYourā¦'duty?'ā Maddie repeated.
Knuckles nodded, putting his right fist on his chest as he spoke, āI have promised you, the Lord of the Donuts, the loud hedgehog and the anxious fox to guard the Master Emerald, yes?ā
āWell,Ā yes,Ā butāā
āAnd I haveĀ alsoĀ promised to protect you all.ā He announced proudly and matter-of-factly, āA protectorĀ neverĀ rests.āĀ
āHunā¦I think weāve proven weāre more than capable at protecting ourselves.ā The human lightly joked as she almostĀ immediatelyĀ regretted her statement and tone as she saw the teenās expression shift from proud toā¦distress.Ā
And there it is...
ā¦You haveĀ suchĀ a wonderful way of words, Madelineā¦
ā¦SUCHĀ a wonderful way with wordsā¦
A flash of hurt made their way through Knuckles' eyes, though, he tried to hide it as we looked away, glaring at the floor slightly he hugged himself, which made the human feel evenĀ moreĀ guilty, āā¦Iā¦I am aware of that fact.ā
AndĀ immediatelyĀ the adult started to backtrack at the teenagerās now almost distraught and downtrodden expression, āI-Itās not that we donāt appreciate itā appreciateĀ you,Ā love. I just donāt want you collapsing randomly one day because youāre staying up every single night keeping watch of us and the house.ā
āI doĀ notĀ collapse.ā The kid said in an almost defensive-like tone, āAnd when I eventuallyĀ will,Ā I would gladly do so knowing I have protected you all to the fullest.āĀ
And right then and there Maddie could haveĀ swornĀ she felt her heart stop at that, feeling the smallest twinge of lightheadedness as she curled her fingers, forming fists on her lap.Ā
āNo!ā The human shouted, lowering her voice as she realized she yelled aĀ tadĀ bit too loudly, making Knuckles flinch slightly at the sudden exclamation, āNo noĀ no!Ā Knuckles, where is this coming from?!āĀ
The nurse pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to stay calm but found itĀ reallyĀ difficult due to the fact one of her kids openly stated he would be fine literallyĀ DYINGĀ if it meant he would fulfill his 'duty', āI donāt want you staying up guarding, scoutingāĀ whateverĀ you call it!Ā I just donāt want you doing any of those things!āĀ
The echidnaās face morphed to a frown, āButāā
āNo,Ā Knuxā¦ā Maddie said, her tone leaving no room for argumentā¦
ā¦TheĀ 'Mother voice'Ā if you willā¦
āThis is theĀ lastĀ timeĀ youāre doing something like this. End of story.ā The purple cladded human said, crossing her arms across her chest.
And then again, there wasā¦a small silence that fell between the two.Ā
A silence neither of them likedĀ at all.Ā
But the air was too thick withā¦all of a suddenĀ tensionĀ that they both stayed quiet, in fear they would say the wrong thingā¦
ā¦Again.
But eventually, the red echidna couldnāt take the silence; couldnāt take the tension any longer.Ā
He looked at the figure in front of him once more, fixing his composure to appear more confidentā¦but ultimately just appearing to be straight up panic-stricken.Ā
āThen what can I doā¦?ā He mumbled out meekly.
Maddieās hands dropped to her sides, her eyebrows creasing together, āā¦Whatā¦do you mean?ā
āToā¦To repay you all.ā The violet eyed teenager further explained, mentallyĀ punchingĀ himself for sounding so completely and utterlyā¦weak,Ā āTo make up for what Iāve done previously. T-Toā¦guarntee my stay in the Wachowski clan.ā
And those words alone spokeĀ measures.Ā
The nurseās heart might of well dropped all the way to the floor, because all of a sudden she felt like she could notĀ breathe.Ā
She puts Knuckles' hand in hers, even though the echidnaās hand was obviously and ultimatelyĀ TWICE her hand sizeā¦she didnāt care.
For crying out loud this was herĀ son.
And she wouldĀ neverĀ everĀ forgive herself if after this he would continue to think otherwise.
Thenā¦
ā¦Everything clicked.Ā
āā¦Sweetheartā¦did youā¦d-did you think we were going toā¦kick you outā¦?ā She asked as if she already knew the answer, afraid of what the other would say.Ā
The short teenager picked up quickly that Maddie somehow knew now, guilt almost immediately hitting him like a train as he hugged himself with his free hand, looking down at his lap, āYes.ā He admitted, hugging himself more as he saw the other start to become teary eyed, āBefore coming here to the Wachowski residanceā¦I was responsible forĀ soĀ many casualtiesā¦ā He muttered, āā¦I still am.ā
The teenagerās tail droops, bringing his fist to his face to try and hide his also now tearing up expression, āI helped Robotnik seize control of your town and almost the entireĀ planetā¦āĀ
āā¦I-If I had justĀ listenedĀ to Sonicā¦your house would not still be under repair. You and the Lord of Donuts would not have to call that 'Uber'Ā you always speak of every morning to simply go to your designated jobs!ā He yelled, not really caring if anyone else besides Maddie heard him at this point.
āGrowing up, my Father always told me toĀ neverĀ put my hands on someone else unless they did so to me firstā¦ā He murmured, a hint of fondness in his tone speaking of his as of late Father.Ā Ā
āI broke that promise when I met Sonic.ā He mumbled out, ignoring the feelings of his eyes starting to become more wet, āButā¦B-But above all elseā¦all my Father wanted for me was for me to be aĀ good personā¦ā
Knuckles let out a small sob, harshly wiping his face as his shoulder hung lowā¦
ā¦Out ofĀ hatredĀ orĀ frustrationā¦?Ā
Maybe a little bit ofĀ bothā¦?Ā
Maddie wasnāt sure.
āA-And IĀ promisedĀ him. I swore on myĀ lifeĀ I would live by those two promisesā¦ā The small echidna hiccuped, yanking his arm away from the human as he gripped his arm with one hand until he couldnāt feel it anymore, āA-And I f-failed those twoĀ simpleĀ oaths b-by j-j-just acting soĀ f-foolishā¦āĀ
The taller figure watched the other shake with sobs, swiftly scooting closer to him as she gently held his wrists to stop him from further hurting himself.Ā Ā
āOh, sweetheartā¦ā She mumbled, her heart heavy as she saw the teenager duck his head further, āHeyā¦heyā¦ā Maddie whispered, cupping the echidnaās face in her palms.
And to be completely honest? Knuckles wanted to hurt himself further as he did nothing but melt to the small butĀ impactfulĀ form of affectionā¦
āCan you look at me?ā The nurse carefully asked.Ā
Knuckles quietly looked at her, his face scrunched up to try and attempt to stop the tears freely flowing down his cheeks like a waterfall.Ā
Maddie sighed sadly, wiping his tears with her thumb as she gently rubbed his cheeks, āI need you to listen to me, okay?ā
He shakily nodded.
āYou are a good person.āĀ She emphasized sternly, āOne mistake that you made doesnāt automatically define your worth.ā
āThisā¦ā She said, gesturing to herself and Knuckles. āā¦isĀ notĀ a transaction. We are giving you a room to sleep in becauseĀ we love you.Ā We are giving you clothes to wear becauseĀ we love you.Ā We are giving you food to eat becauseĀ we love youā¦ā
āā¦Even though I would prefer you eat somethingĀ otherĀ than grapes.ā She tried to joke, which ended upĀ finallyĀ working very effectively as she saw a small butĀ genuineĀ smile appear on the echidnaās face.
Knuckles couldnāt help but let out a soft snort, rolling his eyes before focusing on Maddie once again, āMy grapes have nothing to do with thisā¦āĀ
āAnd IĀ doĀ also consume Cool Ranch Doritos from time to timeā¦ā The teen mumbled, āSo saying IĀ onlyeat grapes is inaccurate.āĀ
The nurse gently squished his cheek playfully, āAndĀ this?ā She gestured as she wiped away his tears once again, āIs because I love you. Not because Iām expecting something in return.ā She explained as she now put his hands in herās as if the size meant nothing to herā¦
ā¦Because it didnāt.
āRobotnikĀ trickedĀ you. He tricked you into thinking he was a nice man. ThatĀ isnātĀ your fault.ā The human sternly announced once again.Ā
The red furred echidna shook his head, āBut I endangeredĀ everyoneāā
āāBut you alsoĀ savedĀ everyone.ā The purple pajama wearing woman quickly added, āYou tried to fix your mistakesā¦donāt think I didnāt see you punching those egg robot thingies, hun. YouĀ werenāt messing around.āĀ
āI am not prone to be one whoĀ 'messes aroundā¦'ā He said, his eyes almost jumping out of their sockets as Maddie planted a small kiss on his forehead.
āAnd that?Ā That is becauseā¦ā She gently urged on.
āYouā¦Y-You love me...ā Knuckles finished, almost choking on his own words, before lightly pushing her away in an attempt to get her to leaveā¦
ā¦Because she would eventuallyā¦
ā¦Right?
āā¦Y-You hardly evenĀ knowĀ me.ā The violet eyed echidna whispered, looking up at the taller figure as she gently bumped her shoulder with his.
āDoesnāt mean I canāt love you.ā Maddie exclaimed as she smiled warmly, the warmness somehow making its way to the echidna warrior as his heart fluttered in his chest.
A small, subtle blush appeared on his muzzle as he looked away, trying to hide his expression.Ā
He cleared his throat, āIā¦suppose that is true, Pretzel Womanā¦ā
āJust 'Maddie' is fine, sweetie.ā
The fifteen year old swallowed, wiping his eyes with his arm as he finally looked at the taller.
And if Maddie squintedā¦she was almost 100% sure she saw a small sparkle in the childās eyes.Ā
āAlrightā¦Maddie.ā The teenager announced shyly but proudly, resting his head on the otherās shoulder.
The nurse had to keep in literally every single fiber in her body to stop herself fromĀ squealingĀ like a high-school preppy girl.Ā
āYou donāt owe us anythingā¦okay?ā The brown eyed woman stated, āYouāre apart of aĀ family,Ā Knux. And one doesnāt protect the whole familyā¦we all protectĀ each other.ā She rubbed Knuckles' knuckles gently and comfortingly with her thumb, āYouāre aĀ Wachowski.Ā And the Wachowskiās stick together.ā
And just like that, another silence fell among the twoā¦although, this one was less tense which Maddie could not be more grateful for.Ā
But the nurse couldnāt shake the feeling that something was being leftā¦unsaidĀ andĀ undone.
And if you knew herā¦you knewĀ dang wellĀ those two words were just simplyĀ notĀ apart of her dictionary.Ā
āMay I give you a hug?ā She asked somewhat hesitantly, but couldnāt stop the smile spreading to her face as she saw the echidna perk up at the mention.Ā
The red echidna collected himself, clearing his throat again as he glanced up at her, āYou may.āĀ
The human wrapped the echidna in her arms, her smile doubling in size as she felt the teen wrap his own arms around herā¦somewhatĀ stiflyĀ andĀ awkwardly.Ā
But hey, he was trying.
āI love you, Knux.ā The chocolate eyed woman hummed, āAnd you donāt have to say it back if you arenāt ready.āĀ
The violet eyed echidna nodded, shyly burying his face into the otherās shoulder as they continued to embrace.
āDo youā¦want to go back to your roomā¦?ā Maddie asked in a tone signifying she was alright with a 'yes'Ā or aĀ 'no'.Ā
The warrior only held Maddie tighter at that, shaking his head as he buried his face into her shoulder harder, āInā¦I-In a little bitā¦ā He answered honestly, āI do not want to go just yetā¦āĀ
āThatās fine.ā The human assured, āHow aboutā¦we stay on the couch for a while? I bet itāsĀ wayĀ more comfy than these old stairs.ā
The red furred echidna nodded, āā¦Alright.āĀ
He followed the taller to the living room, sitting on the couch as she did, watching her as she flipped through the channels.
āYou okay with watchingĀ 'F.R.I.E.N.D.S.?'ā The woman asked as she flipped to theĀ Nick-at-NiteĀ channel, relaxing on the couch cushion.Ā
āI am very fond of my companions, yes.ā The young warrior nodded, resting his eyes on the TV as this so calledā¦.'F.R.I.E.N.D.S.'Ā show started to play.
The two sat on the couch for a while, small chuckles and snickers being shared as they reacted to the show in front of them.Ā
Knuckles yawned, crossing his arms as he rested his head on Maddieās arm which the older did not pay any mind to, subconsciously scratching his quills.
The youngerās eyes widened, not moving away from the touch but seeming genuinely shocked by it, āWhat are you doing?ā
At that, the human quickly drew her hand away.
Shit.
āO-Oh, Iām sorry, baby.ā She said apologetically, cursing herself for making it seem like she was trying to rush him with anythingā¦
āItās just a thing I do with Sonic and Tailsā they find it calming. Iām sorry, I shouldāve asked. Itās justā¦kind of anĀ instinctā¦ā Maddie said to Knuckles as he looked down, fiddling with his gloved fingers as he looked anywhere but the person beside him, āYou do notā¦haveĀ to stop if you do not wish.ā He admitted quietly, āIt feels niceā¦ā
The nurse triedĀ (and failed)Ā to hide yet another dorky grin that spread to her face as she gently ruffled Knuckles quills once more, cooing on the inside as the echidna subtly leaned into the touch, trying his absoluteĀ bestĀ to concentrate on the television but obviouslyĀ clearlyĀ enjoying the affection as his tail wagged softly against the couch.Ā
As the TV ran, Maddie moved her hand to scratch where Knuckles' ears would be and the young warrior absolutelyĀ meltedĀ at the new touch, his tail wagging faster.
The purple cladded woman fondly smiled at the reaction, moving her fingers to gently scratch the back of the echidnaās neck butĀ nothingĀ would have prepared her for the loudĀ shriekĀ the teenager let out as she did so.
The violet eyed fifteen year old covered his mouth in shock as the human retreated her hand back, her face morphing to worry once more, āA-Are you alright? Are you hurt?āĀ
The echidna swallowed, not evenĀ tryingĀ to hide the small blush that appeared on his muzzle now as he put his hand to the side, āI-I amā¦uninjured.ā He said as calmly as he could muster, āI apologize for startling youā¦I also startled myselfā¦āĀ
āItās okay, sweetheartā¦ā The purple cladded human said, āā¦But what happened?ā
āI amā¦not sure.ā Knuckles explained as he rubbed the back of his neck as if to redo the feeling he just felt, āYou touched the back of my neck and it feltā¦odd.āĀ
āOdd?ā Maddie repeated.Ā
āOdd.ā Knuckles said again.
The nurse raised a curious brow, lightly poking the red furred echidna where she was once scratching him as he burst into surprised and confused giggles.
The fifteen year old shook his head back and forth, scrunching up his shoulders as he lightly tried to pry the otherās hand away.
Whatā¦wasĀ this?
And why did it make him feel soā¦giddyĀ andĀ carefree?!
āC-Cease thihis s-sohorcery ahahatĀ once!ā The violet eyed echidna giggly demanded, hugging himself and falling down on the couch, āCeeheease ceeheease ceeheeheeheease!!ā He snickered as Maddie gently started to spider her finger nails along his sides.Ā
āIt isnāt sorcery, love. Your just ticklish.ā The adult chuckled, putting one and one together.Ā
āN-Nohohoh Ihi ahahahamĀ nohot!ā The red furred teen denied through his chorus of laughs, āAhan ehechidna waharrior woHOULD neHEHEver hahave suhuHUCH AHA c-chihildish weeheeakness!āĀ
āReally?ā Maddie smiled, intrigued as she gently prodded the otherās lower ribs, causing the other in question to automaticallyĀ jerk,Ā throwing his head back as he buried his heels in the couches cushions, āNOHOH thIHIs ihihis CHIHIHILDIHISH!!ā He desperately squealed.Ā
The woman in purple pajamas couldnāt help the small coo she let out at the teenagerās adorable reactionsā¦
ā¦And Knuckles didnāt evenĀ needĀ to look at her to know she found his once-in-a-full-moon flustered expressionĀ veryĀ amusing.
āAwe, Knuxā¦ā The nurse lightly teased as her fingers continued their ticklish torment on the echidnaās ribs.Ā
āNOHOHāĀ snrk!Ā DOHOHONāT!!ā The echidna in question cried as his cheeks started to match his fur color, internally cursing his natural body movements as his tail wagged happily once more.
āDonātĀ what~?Ā Donāt tickle you?ā Maddie sweetly asked, only receiving a small butĀ LOUDĀ snort from the other as she moved down to gently scratch along his stomach, āLooks like I found a bad spot, huh, bud~?ā
āIHIHIT IHISNāTĀ snrtĀ BAHAD!!ā The teen insisted, banging his fists on the couch, āIHAT JUHAHā!Ā SNRT!Ā JUHUST FEEHEELS OHODD!!ā
āInterestingā¦ā The adult hummed, pretending she was pondering something as he dug her handās into the violet eyed echidnaās underarms, wincing slightly as he let out a sharp scream before descending into loud cackles.
āThis feel odd too?ā She asked innocently.Ā
āIHIHATāSĀ snrt snrtĀ EEHEEVENĀ WOHOHORSE!!!ā Knuckles laughed, āG-GEHATĀ snrtĀ AHAHOUT OHOF THERE!āĀ
āGet out ofĀ where~?ā
āTHEHEHEHERE!ā The teen quickly retorted, trying to gesture to his underarm but anytime heĀ triedĀ to the other would just simply make her touches even lighter, āMAHADDIE DAHAHONāT AHACTĀ snrt STUPID!āĀ
ā'Stupid~?'ā The nurse dramatically gasped, āAnd here I thought weĀ bonded!ā She huffed as she fluttered her fingers in the crooks of the teenās neck and under his chin.
And truth be toldā¦Knuckles was absolutely, positivelyĀ embarrassedĀ of this whole ordeal.
And to be honestā¦he could have gotten up anytime he wantedā¦
ā¦But he didnāt.
He hadnāt thought heād ever feel suchā¦happiness and carefreeness ever againā¦
ā¦But itās like Sonic always saidā¦
'Hope is a hedgehogās greatest weapon.'Ā
āSNRT!Ā NOHOH!!Ā STOHOPĀ SNRTĀ IHAT!!!ā The echidna wheezed out, his legs frantically kicking behind Maddie.
āGuess this is your sweet spotā¦ā The woman smiled brightly.Ā
āNAHAHAH!Ā SNRT!Ā NOHAHOTHINGĀ AHABOHOUTĀ SNRT SNRTĀ MY NECK IHIHIS SWEEHEEHEET!!!ā The young warrior cackled loudly, tears welling up in his eyesā¦
ā¦And for the first time inā¦well,Ā foreverā¦they were happy ones.Ā
āAHALRIGHT!!Ā AHAHALRIHIGHT!!!ā He relented, lightly pushing on her hands, āIHI SURRENDER! IHIHIHI SURRENDER!!āĀ
And just like that Maddie immediately let up, sitting back as Knuckles let out a couple more aftermath giggles.
āYou okay, baby?ā The human asked, wiping away the rest of his happy tears.Ā
āY-Yehes. I ahamĀ snrtĀ fineā¦ā The red echidna hummed, sitting back on the couch as he layed his head on the figureās shoulder again.Ā
āThank you, Moāā Knuckles' eyes widened, quickly catching his slip-up, āM-Maddie.Ā Maddie.Ā Thank you, Maddie.ā He exclaimed quickly, quietly praying to his echidna ancestors that the purple pajama wearing woman didĀ notĀ catch his mistake.
But judging by her wide eyes and agape mouthā¦she most likely did.
āUhmā¦I-I must go to my sleeping quarters nowā¦g-goodnight.ā Knuckles stammered under his breath quickly and quiety, not waiting for the other to give an answer as he basicallyĀ sprintedĀ to the attic, quietly closing the door to not disturb his brothers whom were soundly fast asleep.Ā
Maddie slowly got out of her state of shock, her heart basically leaping out of her chest as she fondly smiled, shutting off all the lights in the living room and kitchen before taking one small glance at the closed attic door.
She feltā¦soĀ warmĀ andā¦soĀ fuzzyā¦
Instead of her heart droppingā¦she honestly felt like it just soared to heaven.Ā
āGoodnight, son.ā She whispered, wiping her eyes as she slipped into her and Tomās bedroom, going under the covers next to her husband and going back to sleep.Ā

School is what you make of it.
It could be absoluteĀ hellĀ wrapped in a box to make itĀ seemĀ entertaining, or it could be a box full of oppurtunities and dreams awaiting youā¦but end up being hell either way. Do with that information as you will.Ā
And for April right now? School wasĀ definetlyĀ becoming a living hellā¦more than it alreadyĀ wasĀ anyway.Ā
It was near the end of school. LikeāĀ the veryĀ lastĀ week of school. The students have cleaned their lockers, they were done with finals and basically everything was completed in order to leave.Ā
So it still raises the question as toĀ whyĀ April was still obligated to be here. She had one more week left of this torture called school, but it was starting to feel like anĀ eternity!
And her last period classĀ wasnātĀ making it any better either.Ā
It was Math.
Fucking.Ā Math.Ā
And if you knew anything about Math periodsā¦they took aĀ centuryĀ to finish. Plus, it was alwaysĀ soĀ boringĀ because their teacher wouldĀ never. stop.Ā yapping.Ā
āI want to goĀ home.ā April grumbled quietly, resting her cheek on her palm at her desk as their teacherā Ms. Millerā explained bullshit she didnātĀ knowĀ norĀ care about.Ā Leo snorted in amusement at the comment, turning his head slightly at his friend who was beside him.
āOh? Are you not enjoying Ms. MillerāsĀ wonderfulĀ insight?ā The teen in blue asked teasingly. Although, it wasĀ abundantly clearĀ he too was not enjoying their teacherās well known yap-sesh.Ā
The older teen just sighed in response, slouching in her chair as she crossed her arms across her chest, āThis class is going to be on my suicide note.ā She muttered under her breath. Leonardo put his hand over his mouth at her grumbled comment, looking down on his desk as he was trying not to laugh.Ā
Ms. Miller, who was at the front of the room smacked the whiteboard sternly with her ruler, causing the whole class to stiffen in surprise and look at her.Ā
āShe goin' get meā¦ā Mikey mumbled under his breath, causing the entire class to try and hold in their giggles the best they could.Ā
The teacher sighed tiredly, rubbing her eyes before looking at the class, āSince itās the end of the school year and IĀ literally cannotĀ waitĀ to not seeĀ anyĀ of you for a good two to three months, letās just do a Math activity for the remainder of class.ā
āAwe!!! Your letting us play a game because you love us???ā Mikey asked.
āNo.Ā Iām not giving you all a 'game' because I donāt feel likeĀ gradingĀ anything.ā She responded.Ā
āFair enough.ā The turtle in orange mused as the teacher passed around sheetās of paper with equations on it. āYou can partner up with someone to completeĀ all thirty questions.Ā The first pair to answer all thirty questions and get them allĀ rightĀ gets Dum-Dum lolipops.ā She finished explaining as the kids gave knowing looks to each other, telepathically communicating with one another who would partner up with who.Ā
āā¦I feel like youāre trying to imply something with those lollipops, Ms. Millerā¦ā Raph said as he raised a brow. The teacher let out a small laugh in response, sitting down at her desk as she went on her phone.
Okayā¦so perhaps this day wouldnāt turn out as bad as AprilĀ initiallyĀ thought.Ā
The girl in glasses gave her blue cladded mutant friend a knowing look, which he gladly reciprocated as she scooted closer to him and started to work on the problems together.Ā
āWe are going to absolutelyĀ dominateĀ every single fucking person in this classroom and win that candy.ā The older teen said as she cracked her knuckles, taking out her pencil case and taking out a pencil.Ā
Which was theĀ TiconderogaĀ No. 2Ā pencil of course.Ā
āā¦Are you sure?ā The hazel eyed mutant asked as he looked over the problems, āIām not that good in Geometryā¦ā
āPffāĀ am I sure?Ā Sure Iām sure! Your girl right here got anĀ AĀ in Geometry.ā April smiled as she slung an arm over the otherās shoulders, āDonāt worry your pretty little head, Leo Lazilee. Iām going to absolutely carry our team to sugary sweetĀ VICTORY!āĀ
The younger slightly blushed at the nickname, rolling his eyes fondly, āI told you to stop calling me thatā¦ā He mumbled out but the other could tell he did not mean itĀ one bit.Ā
The girl in glasses grabbed her pencil, ready to start solving the problems beforeĀ really andĀ truly looking as to what was in front of her.Ā
āTheĀ fuckĀ is this shit?ā The girl questioned, looking at the paper as if it grew ten heads out of nowhere. Leo mentally facepalmed, looking at the sheet alongside his best friend as they both looked at it in confusion.Ā
āā¦Why does the Math problem have shapesā¦?ā The leader in blue mumbled to his friend beside him.Ā
āā¦Okahay, weāre bothĀ officiallyĀ stupid.ā The girl in glasses chuckled out, putting the pencil on the table as she leaned back on the chair.
The hazel eyed teen rolled his eyes at the automatic acceptance of defeat from his teammate, āYourĀ no help.ā He huffed out, turning around in his seat to face the person behind him.
Which, if youāre wondering, was none other than his big beautiful brained little brother Donnie.Ā
Oh, and Raph was here too, I guess.Ā
āPsst, Don!Ā PSST!!!ā The leader in blue whispered to his brother although he wasĀ literallyĀ aĀ centimeter away from him. The purple cladded turtle in question looked up from the worksheet to meet his older brotherās gaze, āNardo, why are you whispering soĀ loudly?ā He questioned.Ā
āI need your answers for the worksheet thingie!ā Leo said.
āAre you crazy?ā The hoodie wearing turtle asked as he huffed out a laugh, āMe?Ā Dona Tello?Ā Give youĀ myĀ answers?Ā HA!Ā Sorry, dear brother of mineā¦you expectĀ waaaayĀ too much.āĀ
Raph was sitting next to Donnie as the two teammates went shoulder to shoulder and barricaded the worksheet with their arms so Leo couldnāt see the paper.Ā At all.Ā The eldest huffed, turning back around and slumping in his chair with his arms crossed.Ā
Well, since his brain and brawn brotherās didĀ notĀ want to help him and April through these dire times, perhaps his youngest brother would be of aid.Ā
Leonardo got up, walking a couple seats down to where Mikey and Mondo were. The two friends were just telling jokes to each other and doodling all over the back of the paper. The hazel eyed teen didĀ nothave the patience and/or stamina to evenĀ askĀ the two if they knew it was a worksheet in the first place and not some coloring page.Ā Ā
Besides, from what Leo heard, the two seemed to be having a meaningful convo about the Trump vs. Biden presidential debate, MLP, Helluva Boss, amusement parks andā¦grass.Ā
How do those topics all correlate in a conversation? Leonardo has absolutelyĀ no clue!Ā
But the two were making it work, so he wouldnāt question it.Ā
The eldest turtle went back to his seat, letting out a defeated sigh as April patted him on the shell comfortingly. āSeems like weāre going to have to do this the old fashioned way...ā The leader in blue muttered out as he sat up straight,Ā Ā looking over the problems again.
After a couple minutes of Leonardo justĀ aimlessly staringĀ at the paper, April got impaitent and just grabbed the worksheet, looking at the problems for a split second before jotting down random answers.Ā
āUhā¦Prill? You know IĀ neverĀ question your unorthodox way of doing thingsā¦but I amĀ 100%Ā questioning it right now.ā The younger teen said as he peeked over to look at the questionsā which April was halfway done with.
āTrust the process, Nerdo. Iāll have us swimming in candy inĀ no time!ā The girl grinned, going into her pencil case to sharpen her pencil. The blue cladded turtle took one more good look at the paper and examined it thouroughly.Ā
Look, Leoās only been in school for about a year now, but heāsĀ 99.9% positiveĀ Geometry answers shouldĀ notĀ be just question marks.Ā
As the chocolate brown eyed teen was ready to write down another answer to the worksheet, the other snatched the pencil away from her quickly, glaring at her playfully as she glared playfully back.Ā
āOho, Leo~!ā The girl sang in a sing-song voice, āI would be ever-so grateful if you could give me back my pencil. MyĀ TiconderogaĀ No. 2Ā pencil to be exact.ā She exclaimed with emphasis and whimsy.Ā
āSoho yohou can wrihite quehestion marks ahall over the paper? Yeheahā¦noho...ā The mutant remarked.Ā
āJuhust gihive me my pehencil!ā
āNoho!āĀ
April almost automatically poked Leo in the side due to his statement, causing the turtle to shriek in surprise as he flinched slightly from the touch. The random noise that escaped his mouth got a couple of concerned looks from his other classmates but they soon deflected and went back to doing their own thing.Ā
The slightly taller teen clutched the pencil to his chest like it was the last piece of pizza on Earth and he was fighting for it with every single fiber in hisĀ body.Ā He scooted his chair slightly away from his friend but she easily and gladly followed, raising a brow in amusement and delight.Ā
āWhy are you soĀ nervousĀ all of a sudden~?ā She asked innocently as the other avoided her gaze, looking to the side of him as he was trying not to literally grab his backpack and sprint all the way back to the lair in complete terror.Ā
āNardo~! My pencil, please!ā The other smiled sweetly as she extended her hand, awaiting her fellow teammate to give back what was rightfully herās. āAhand ihif IhiĀ dohohonātā¦?ā Leo meekly asked, letting out a soft and tiny squeal as the older pinched his side again.Ā
āYou know whatās going to happen, you goof. I haveĀ noĀ problemĀ doing this in front of everyone.ā April said as she now squeezed Leoās sides with her fingers. The slightly taller teen snorted, slightly sliding down in the chair as he tried to avoid his best friendās attacks.Ā
āS-Stahahap!!ā The blue cladded turtle giggled, batting at Aprilās arms with his arms weakly. The girl chuckled at the adorable sight, booping Leoās nose before squeezing his sides once more. āYou donāt reallyĀ want me to stop though, do you?ā She mused as the younger stomped his legs on the floor, trying his absoluteĀ bestĀ to keep his reaction to a minimum.
āYour brother and April need to get a room, brahā¦ā Mondo chuckled in amusement as him and Mikey watched the scene unfold. The youngest turtle sighed knowingly, leaning back on his chair, āTell me about itā¦ā
The leader in blue weakly thrashed in his seat, hugging his middles whilst still having the pencil in his right hand. āAhaā *snort* AhaHAPRIHIL!ā He giggly said.
The girl just smirked in response, sneaking her hands to the otherās underarms and resulting him to let out loud giddy cackles and snorts. āOho~? Snorting already?ā She asked.
The mutant shook his head back and forth, covering his mouth with his hands to try and muffle his laugh. The glasses wielding teen scoffed lightly at the action, digging harder into the otherās underarms. āOhhhh no youĀ donāt,Ā Leo Lazilee. I amĀ notĀ allowing you to hide your precious giggles from me! Drop your hands~!āĀ
āFAHAHā *snort* *snort* MAHAKE MEEHEE!!āĀ
āHave it your way.ā The elder teen said casually, effortlessly holding the leader in blueās arms up as her fingers scribbled all over his stomach and sides.Ā
Leonardo threw his head back, stomping his feet on the ground as he tried to squirm away from April. āTickle tickle tickle~!āĀ
āPFFTā *snort* NAHAHA!! D-DOHONāT EHEHEVEN *snort* *snort* DOHONāT *snort* SAHAHAY THAHAT!!!āĀ
āHm? Donāt say what,Ā Lee-o~?Ā Tickle~?ā April teased as the mutantās laughter raised an octave. āNAHAā *snort* NOHOHO STAHAP IHIT!āĀ
āHow aboutā¦no?Ā Tickletickletickletickletickletickle~!āĀ The girl continued to tease as she watched her best friend turn into a giggly puddle of snorts and squeals. āIs someone too tickle tickle ticklish~? Does thisā¦tickletickletickletickletickle~?āĀ
The hazel eyed teen snorted loudly, āPRIHIHILLIE!!! PLEHEHEASE STAHAā *snort* NONONOHOHOā *snort* *snort* NAHAHAH!!!āĀ
āNoĀ what~?Ā Are you too ticklish for this~?ā
āSHUHUT *snort* UHUHAHAP!!āĀ
The chocolate brown eyed girl stopped her attack altogether at the sudden and very rude comment, glaring teasingly at her friend as if to say: 'Your about to get it.'
Raphael shook his head in mock dissapointment, eating a bag of Doritos as he was watching the one sided tickle fight right in front of him āSaying 'shut up' to April is absolutleyĀ wild.Ā And doing that literaly four months after Womenās History month?! For shame, brother.Ā For.Ā shame.ā The tallest turtle said dramatically.Ā
āAnyways,Ā try aiming for his lower stomach. It drives him batshitĀ crazy.ā The second oldest turtle casually said, grinning as he saw the eldest giving him the nastiest stink eye.Ā
The girl smiled in awaiting triumph, āOkay then. ThanksāĀ wait a sec.Ā Raph, where theĀ hellĀ did you get Doritos from?!ā
āMyā¦backpack?ā The red cladded turtle said as if his answer shouldāve been obvious.Ā
āDude, this isĀ literallyĀ our last period.ā Donnie laughed, still solving the last couple of problems on the worksheet.
āSo?Ā Last timeĀ IĀ checked, this was aĀ free country. Iāll eat Doritos any time and at any class period.Ā Period.ā Raphael announced as he ate more of the Dorito chips from the bag. The girl in glasses just rolled her eyes fondly, keeping her friendās wrists in a hold as the other hand wiggled slowly to his lower stomach.
āN-NAHAHā *snort* *snort* NOHOHOH!!!ā
āGihive me my pehehencil yohou buffoon!āĀ
āIHIHIāLL *snort* STAHAB *snort* YOHOHOU *snort *snort* WIHITH IHIHIHIT!!!ā
āYou wanna see howĀ thatāllĀ end~?āĀ
āN-NOHO! NONOHOHO WAHAā *snort* WAHAIT IM SORRY!!ā Leo cried out, being too tired to writhe or pry so he was just stuck laughing his shell off. The slightly older teenager payed him no mind, raising his arms a bit higher as she scribbled her nails all over his plastron and lower plastron.Ā
But ladies and gentlemen? Nothingā¦absolutelyĀ nothingĀ could have prepared anyone in that classroom for what unfolded.Ā
The leader in blue let out a loud, genuine scream before descending into screechy cackles. April soon bursted into loud laughter along with Leo, wondering justĀ howĀ insanelyĀ ticklish a ninja turtle could possibly be.Ā
āEEEEEHEHEHAHAH!!!Ā PLEHAā *snort* *snort* *snort* STAHAHAP!!! IHI CAHANāT TAHAKE IHIā *snort*!!ā Leonardo squealed as his laughter went up an octave or two. April was honestly genuinely surprised no teacher from the classrooms came to check up on them to make sure no one was fatallyĀ dying.Ā
The teachers arenāt really payed enough to care that much but still!
āTAHAKE IHIT! TAHAHAHAKE *snort* *snort* *snort* IHIHIT! PRIHIHILLIE PLEHAHAā *snort* *snort* PLEHEASE!ā As the blue cladded mutantās laugh and gasps became more frantic, the slightly smaller teen stopped tickling him, grabbing the pencil from his hands as she pat his shoulder comfortingly.
āI just wanted my pencil back. You took my property and I used self defense.ā April said teasingly, reaching for the paper and erasing her previous answers to start again. āIhiām *snort* gohoing to fihile aha *snort* *snort* complaintā¦ā
āOho yeah? To who?āĀ
āTo Daharth Vahader soho he cahan use thehe force on your ahashy ahassā¦ā Leo grumbled through his giggles, sitting up in his chair as his best friend continued to finish the last of the problems.Ā
As the chocolate eyed teen finished up with the remainder of the problems, her and Leo got up to give the worksheet to the teacher. āHere you go, Ms. Miller! All thirty problems 101% completed.ā The girl grinned.Ā
Their teacher raised a brow, pulling up the answer key on her computer as she looked over the twoās work.
āThatās incorrect.ā Ms. Miller said.
āMs. Millerā¦exactlyĀ whatāsĀ incorrect?ā Leonardo asked.Ā
āā¦All of it.ā The teacher explained. But before she could give the two partners some insight onĀ whatthey did wrong andĀ howĀ they could improve, the two were pushed aside by Donnie and Raph.Ā
āEat shit, suckers.ā Raphael snickered as he handed their teacher the paper (he had sanitized his hands prior due to him eating Doritos earlier. He wasnāt anĀ animal).Ā
āI donāt get paid enough for thisā¦ā Ms. Miller sighed, looking over the brain and brawnās worksheet as she compared it with the answer key, āGood job you two. Everything is correct.ā She said, pulling out one of the drawers on her desk to take out a big jar justĀ fullĀ of Dum-Dum lollipops.Ā
She handed the huge jar to Raph who gladly accepted it, sticking his tongue out at Leo and April teasingly before directing his attention back to their teacher. āThanks, teach.ā He smiled, going back to his desk.Ā
Donnie on the other hand, started crying from pure joy, dramatically wiping a tear, āMs. Millerā¦? Can you get my fellow classmateās attention? I need to say something important.ā He mumbled out meekly. āHere we goā¦ā The leader in blue grumbled as him and April went back to their seats in defeat.
"If you don't like your destiny,Ā don't accept it.Ā Instead, have theĀ courageĀ toĀ change itĀ the way you want it to be." The purple cladded turtle said whenthe class settled down.
āTHATāS A QUOTE FROM NARUTO, YOU COPYCAT!!!ā A kid in the class shouted.Ā
āSHUT UP, BRANDON!!! NOBODY ASKED YOU!!!ā Donnie basically screeched at his classmate, his voice rising and being similar to the noise of nails on a chalk board. The whole class cringed at the voice crack but no one dared mention it.Ā
āA-And I just wanted to thank my manager! A-And my parents and colleaguesā¦ā The purple cladded mutant listed.Ā
āā¦Donnie has aĀ managerā¦?ā Mondo whispered to Mikey who merely just shrugged, āIām just as confused as you are, broskiā¦ā
āAnd likeĀ big-mouthedĀ BrandonĀ over there mentioned, Naruto says you need to change things the way you want it to be.ā The hoodie wearing turtle said wisely.
āSo you guys should change the wires in yourĀ brainsĀ because there was an answer key to the worksheet at the back. ButĀ noneĀ of you imbeciles noticed.ā He grinned, his smile widening as his classmates jawās dropped.
āAnyways,Ā thank you all and to all a good night.ā The purple cladded teen announced as he bowed dramatically, going back to his seat as him and Raph fist bumped, immediately digging into the lollipop jar.Ā Ā
āI hope they get diabetes.ā Leonardo grumbled as the bell rang. The quintet (group of five people in case youāre wondering :3) packing their bookbags and leaving the classroom along with their classmates.
This dayĀ definitelyĀ didnāt turn out as bad as April initially thought.Ā
She still wouldāve appreciated winning, though.

Summary: Leo was obsessed with a rocket ship toy Splinter got him. But.. whatever happened to it? Donnie may know. This takes place when the turtles are young. Raph is 6, Donnie and Leo 5, and Mikey 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Date is July 25. Don't know if that's Leo's actual birthday, but it may or may not be mine.)
"Whoa! A video game! Lou Jitsu!? Thanks Raph! And a basketball hoop? Awesome, Mikey! And a... UNICORN ONESIE!? Your great, 'Tello!"
The blue-cladded 5 year-old thanks all of them. He makes it to the final present. "Hmm.. from Dad!"
Opening it, is a rocket ship with light-up effects.
"Well? Ya like it?" Raph asks.
"You better. That's a lot of money we spent from chores." Donnie mutters.
Leo yells. "I KNEW IT! Does it really fly like in the commercial!?"
Splinter explains. "Well no, but you can make it."
The SECOND he finishes, Leo THROWS it across the room. Not wanting it to break, Donnie jumps and grabs it.
"You idiot! If we could make stuff fly away by throwing it, I would've thrown you 5 years ago!" (G-get it? C-cause he's f-five here and... yeah I'll shut up now.)
"It'll fly... I just know it!"
Those words.
Later, when Leo goes to bed, Donnie doesn't. He sneaks into Leo's room, grabbing the rocket ship. He heads back to his lab.
"Oh it'll fly alright..."
The light flips right on. "What are you doing?" Raph's voice.
He's screwed. "N-nothing! I... fine. Leo's been less annoying, so I was gonna see if I could make his rocket ACTUALLY fly."
Raph's heart melts. "Aww... that's adorable! Just don't explode it."
Donnie works on it for a while. "Alright. This should be it... aaaand... go!" The rocket flies up, but it explodes into teeny pieces.
"NOO! SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT... LEO'S GONNA BE DEPRESSED!"
The next day.
"Hey Einstein! Have ya seen my rocket?"
The softshell stammers. "W-what rocket? OH! T-that rocket? I-IHI UH... Leo... it broke. I-I accidentally broke it... AAAAAFTER A BEAR IN THE WOODS BROKE IT IN HALF!"
Gullible little Leo believes it. "NO WAY! C-can you fix it?"
"W-well no but... aw man... Leo, you can't seriously be crying."
Indeed he was. He was gonna explode.
"G-gone?" The tears fall.
"Leo, I- awman- come here."
The twins hug. Donnie nuzzles his head into Leo's neck INTENDED for comfort, but instead gets a bunch of giggles.
"H-hehey! Stahap!"
Donnie pauses. "... 'Nardo, what the- OOOOOHOHOHOHO..."
The scientist makes quick work, mercilessly attacking his ribs.
"N-NAHAHAO! NOHO! S-STAHAHAP, NEHERD!"
Donnie teases him. "Really? Iiiii don't see a reason too. Unless your too ticklish to handle it."
Says the second most ticklish turtle, cough cough.
"NO-NO IHIHIM NAHAT- STAHAHAP! NOHOT THEHEHRE!"
Too late. Donnie has already started tickling his stomach.
"Why's that? Cause you can't haaandle it?"
Putting his mouth on, he blows a big ol' raspberry on the blue-cladded turtles stomach, earning loud shrieks and cackles.
"O-OHOKAY! IHI GIHIVE UHUUUP!"
Donnie lets him go. "But don't worry 'Nardo, I'll fix it soon."
"NARDO. COME HERE!" Yells the softshell.
Leo comes in, arms crossed. "Whaaaat?"
Donnie lowers his goggles. "Your rocket is finally on it's way to being fixed. I'm almost done with repairs."
Leo raises an eyebrow. "Don Tron, it's a children's toy. Haha, whys it taking so long?"
"...dont ask questions."
"...alright. pizza?"
FINISHED!! Now. Fic after this ends the rocket ship saga, lol.
Heres how it's been going- Leo got it for his b-day, Don broke it trying to upgrade, Leo got upset, Don cheered him, worked many years later aaand its almost done, which is why Leo kept pestering him.
Fic order for ROTTMNT so far-
This one, "Rocket Ship Prequels"
Next- "Stop Touching My Stuff!"
And finally, "You gotta take a break!"
And tomorrow we get "Its Finally Ready, Calm Down"
Really?? Dude I feel so honored to even be able to talk to you- let alone be a mutual ššššš
Thank you broski- that means so much!! š¤§šš
but sir thatās my emotional support mutual whoās way cooler than me that i canāt believe actually follows meĀ
