AN: just a drabble I put together made after I drew something in Science Class on the back of my research sheet that was supposed to have formula's on it not Turtle's but I found a way to make it work let's just say I am glad Donnie is the smart turtle otherwise it would have led to some awkward questions from my TMNT fan teacher about why Mikey was doing Science. Just a little bit of brotherly love between Raph and Don.

It had been a normal day Raph and Leo fought, Mikey pranked, and Donnie thought… At least that's what Leo thought it was. Donnie had been working on April's science work it was Simple Machine formula's so he was trying to memorize them to possible use for later while using the internet to give him examples and blueprints to build a fancy pulley. Raph was currently doing push up's using his Sai. Leo was meditating in his room, and Mikey was playing video games on the couch.

Finally done copying it off the worksheet, Donnie went to work putting the formula's to the test. Only to have it fail when he tried to make a pulley pick up the TV only to have it weigh too much for it to work like he wanted it to. He sat back and stared at his work before, groaning in frustration, he threw the marker at the board and stalked off, yelling about how he was a failure.

"YO DONNIE GET YA BUTT IN HERE." Following the sound of Raph's voice he found him still doing push-ups in the main room. He looked at Raph with an eyebrow arch raised, and Raph nodded his head towards the white board which now had some erase marks and looked sort of different.

"Try it now Don." He said before continuing his exercises, Donnie looked at the blueprint he had copied onto the board along with the formula trying to find out what was different before shrugging and doing what the directions told him to do, and tested the formula's again. This time it was a success and the TV was lifted up, to Mikey's disappointment, with little effort. Looking at his twin in awe Donnie turned back to the board trying to figure out what Raph had done. He jumped slightly as a hand touched his shoulder and he turned to come face to face with his hot-headed twin looking at him.

"Don, you accidently flipped these two thingies, and mislabeled this, and forgot to account for Mikey's multiple game consoles." Don looked at his brother in shock, Raph rarely ever helped him when it came to science, and Raph always claimed it was useless and impossible to understand. Raph was looking sort of uncomfortable as he continued his explanation on why it didn't work using various versions of the word 'thing-a-ma-bob' to do it. By now Mikey was looking at him in shock and the quiet brought Leo out of his room without anyone noticing.

"Duuuuuude, you actually pay attention to what Don says, bro?" Mikey asked still looking shocked.

"Duh 'course I do," Raph rolled his eyes at his little brother. He got uncomfortable again as he turned to Donnie and said "And Don you ain't a failure and you never will be." Donnie grinned wildly and his missing tooth was obvious, and he reached forward and hugged Raph tightly Raph's cheek turning a bright red as he hugged his brother back slightly. Leo looked on wondering if he was dreaming.

"Thanks love ya big brother," Don said quietly and Raph whispered back.

"Yea love you too little brother," he said softly before releasing his brother and saying loudly, "Yea yea, don't get too chummy, kinda gotta look out for my twin now don't I." Next thing Raph and Donnie knew Mikey was holding two extra Wii remotes in their faces and had a puppy look on his face, soon Super Smash Brothers Brawl could be heard from all over the lair.

Leo shook his head and decided that he must have drank poisoned tea, because he would have sworn that Raph had said, "I love you too." But he could have been mistaken after all he had been watching 12 hours of Space Heroes before meditating. Raph never showed love unless no one else was watching.

'Maybe I should stop watching so many marathons,' Leo thought before looking at the sight of his younger brothers playing the Wii together instead of fighting.

"Or maybe not." He thought as he caught the Wii remote Mikey flung at him and jumped onto the couch.

AN: I know it says Don and Raph are twins, personally I Think Raph is older but it makes more sense this way 'cause it explains why Don is mature and yet Raph feels as protective of him as Mikey, and why he never shows jealousy towards Don's brain like he does Leo's position and why in every series Raph never actually fights with Donnie and Don can say what he feels like to Raph without being worried about being pummeled into the next century. If yall want like a sequel or alternative ending send me some REVIEWS.
