"Poly?" Raph said looking at Mikey. He was shaking, holding back tears.

"Really? Uh what is that exactly?" Leo asked getting up.

Mikey let out a sigh. He went over and over in his head of what he was going to say. He knew he was most likely going to have to explain it, because his sexuality isn't exactly commonly known.

"Well, is means I'm attracted to more than like two genders but not all. You see there are like a lot of genders out there and I'm only attracted to a few." He began to explain.

"So you're like Pan?" Leo asked.

Mikey shook his head. "No. I mean yeah it has some similarities but it's different. If you're Pan you like attracted to anyone, however if you Poly I'm only attracted to a few, ya know? I like girls, guys, and certain nonbinary people like Demi's. I hope this doesn't make stuff like weird between us."

"Don't worry, this doesn't change anything little brother it doesn't... it's ok." Leo said comfortingly. Raph brought him into a hug and everyone else joined in.

After a couple minutes they broke away. "Thanks guys for excepting me. I'm sorry that my sexuality is confusing and-" Mikey said  but was cut off by Leo.

"You shouldn't be sorry! A child can understand this stuff if they just played attention. I'm happy you told us" Donnie smiled.

Mikey smile got bigger. "Here, let's have some cake."

Between the four of them they were able to eat all but one piece. I mean what humanoid turtle doesn't like cake?

"And don't worry about us believe those stupid stereotypes about this stuff. We known that they aren't "all the same" and stuff. We love you for who you are. Don't let anyone bring you down because of this, okay?" Donnie said

"Thanks D" Mikey replied with a smile.

"So, you got a crush or something?" Raph said half joking. Mikey blushed and said he didn't. Then Raph went on a rant about how he'll beat the life out of anyone, girl or guy, that'll hurt him.

"So, have you told Sensei yet?" Leo asked, cutting off Raph from his rant. Master Splinter was in the dojo meditating as usual.

Mikey shook his head. "No I haven't but I have a plan, just trust me."

"Uh, ok?" Donnie said raised a brow. "I'm a bit skeptical but ok. Who, when and how you come out is completely your right."

"Thanks guys, you're the best." Mikey gave a giant smile, relieved and happy that he was loved and accepted for who he was. Now let's just hope Master Splinter will take it the same way.
