More Than You Think

21

I woke up with the bed feeling heavier than it did a few hours ago. My face heats up thinking about what we did just a few hours ago. The moans and grunts that filled this room, the touches and biting in my sweet spots that made me cry and beg for more. Of course I sat up turning over to see that the figure next to me was no longer Raphael it was Rebel. I cover my mouth to suppress any noise that was about to escape. I was still naked so I know I didn't dream of Raphael and I. Carefully I move over to his side and saw Raphael's clothes and a watch him and his brothers alway wear on the ground. Quickly grabbing the watch I enter my bathroom and examine the watch.
Looking closer at it, it was clear to see this wasn't a normal watch it showed a digital clock but the widgets on it was a different story. It had a normal and mutant setting on it and even how much juice it had left. Which meant that Raphael and his brothers are mutants that found a way to appear temporarily normal. Turning it over I see that the reason the watch is bulky is that there's a tank filled with a greenish ooze. I'm assuming that's the chemical that turns them temporarily human. How I'm not completely sure, more likely injection because a gas would possibly affect anyone around them. Looking at the sides I see what looks two needles. I hope they're replacing those constantly. Peeking out my bathroom I go up to him. "Raphael." I say unsure how to feel about all of this. I feel so betrayed and lied to, but who wouldn't do this in their situation.
"Morning Angel." He smiles until he sees it in my hand. As he look his hand he realizes he has a lot of explaining to do.
"(Y/n) let me explain." He stands up quickly.
"I think I figured it out." I stop him, "Just go home. I need to process this."
"Please don't be mad at me. I wasn't sure how to tell you and I had a whole plan with Donnie to explain it to you." He begged with tears swelling in his green eyes.
"Raphael please. I need time." I say to him pulling his face to my level I give him a kiss he scoops my naked body and sets me on his lap as he sits on my bed. Pulling away for air, "Go home." I tell him before getting off his lap. He stops begging and only nods before I hand him his watch back. He changes into human in front of me. Walking away from him I left him to change into clothes from yesterday while I pick out my clothes for today. After he got dressed he left without saying another word.

"Was that Raphael that left?" Johnny entered the kitchen after me.
"Yea." I simply answer unable to look at him.
He forces me to look at him, "What happened?" He ask me seeing my red puffy eyes. "Raphael is Rebel." I say unsure how else to put it.
His anger vanished with confusion taking its place. "What?"
"Raphael is a mutant he has this watch thing that makes him look human. He might have accidentally taken off his watch since we were drunk last night." I explain to him.
"So Rebel is actually Raphael, and Raphael is actually a mutant turtle..." it sounds crazy even when he says it.
I nod unsure how to feel about all of this, "I don't know how to feel about all of this." I whine to my brother who probably just as confused as I am.
"Okay well on the bright side you don't have to chose between the two of them." He tried making light of a weird situation, "He lied to me." I tell him angrily.
"Okay okay, but how do you feel about him. You still like him right? I mean is that why you're confused on how to feel or why you're crying." I hate it when he's right, "Yes." Begrudgingly admit to him knowing lying won't help me.
"Then try to understand his situation, he probably panicked when you met him as a mutant scared you would tell your friends then it would spread to the school, or he could have been ashamed that he's mutant and lied because he wasn't ready for you to know the truth."
I myself onto him, "Why are you so fucking wise sometimes." I grumble out knowing he has a point and I thought of that, but the confusion I felt still out weigh any logic I had left.
"Could you take me to the pharmacy?" I ask.
He looks at me confused as to why, "To get some sweets?" Looking away from him, "That and a morning after pill." Biting on my cheek I wait for his answer. He sighs, "Again really?"
"Okay we were drunk." I tell him.
"At least it's with him and not some sleaze bag." He says.
I couldn't help but ask, "You really like him that much for me?"
He turns facing me, "The second I met him and saw you two together it reminded me of me and Vanessa. The way he went after your attention. Don't forget Vanessa was the one who kept bothering me and honestly I enjoyed it when she did that I made sure she continued to annoy me." With that said we leave to get me my favorite snacks and sweets and a pill.
"You know what's going to hard about all of this?" I ask my brother.
He starts the car, "What?"
"Having to explain this to our friends especially when Erica and Amy are dating mutants as well."
"Crap." Johnny says realizing that this might be harder than he thought. "One thing at time." He says for the both of us.
