Donnie takes hold of your arm and pulls you in the direction of the others. "Hey!" you snapped. You could feel your arm turning red and it burned. "Let go of me!" Donatello lets go of your arm while the three brothers looked on in confusion. The first to speak was the blue one. "Who's the girl~?" You felt uneasy as he leaned in close to your face.
Donnie intervened to put you and his brother at odds. "Hey! She is unimportant. Just a lost girl, that's all. She won't be around for very long." He turned to face you, emotionless.
Despite the fact that he was saying the absolute truth. The words stabbed like sharp daggers.
You mustered the confidence to speak up and put on your prettiest smile. "I am (y/n), not a 'nobody'. He is my protector. Aren't you darling~?" Your smile widens, and Donnie throws you a mean look. He mumbles, "I told you not to call me that." The other three brothers raise an eyebrow as they observe the friction between you two. Once more, the blue one speaks. "I bet Donnie told you we were quote 'dumb dumbs' unquote." You give him a shocked look. How was he aware? It took you a minute to realise what the answer was. It's likely that Donnie tells everyone he encounters that and names them that to their face.
His arm rests on your shoulder. "I've got news for you hermana, while Don's got his book smarts we've got our social smarts. We really know how to please people. Especially me~." He smirked at you and spoke in a flirty manner. Your cheeks started to get hot, but you just laughed it off. "Haha- I'll pass."
"Well, that's your loss." With his hands up and a sneer on his face, he retreats, and the orange one clears his throat. "Please excuse Leo he doesn't understand personal boundaries" He gives Leo a stern glance before turning to face you and radiating happiness. "My name is Mikey. You've obviously met Donnie and Leo." He points at the twins and then at the huge red one, "and he's Raph." It was surprising to see him wave and smile so quietly for such a large man. However, you supposed you were just being cliché.
Raph filled the room with a fatherly spirit. You can sure that his brothers trusted him with their lives because he was the biggest and unquestionably the eldest.
"If you guys are done with the introductions, I'm going to head to my lab." Donatello gets up and walks towards a purple tech looking door and walks into his 'lab' leaving you and the other three alone. "Is he always like this?" you ask. Genuinely curious. Mikey and Leo nod. "He never really leaves his lab. Always tinkering on something" Raph rolls his eyes as he says this, then claps his hands together. "Now, you guys want something to eat?"
It makes your (e/c) eyes shine to think of eating. You were unable to recall your most recent meal. Considering how healthy and active you appeared, it was probably not too long ago. You say, "Yes please," trying not to seem impolite.
They lead you into an unexpectedly spacious kitchen that has pizza boxes resting on the counter. You noticed that there were abandoned pizza boxes all over the place. Did they eat nothing except pizza? Surely not.
Soon after you finished your fair portion of pizza, you made the decision to give Donnie some before everyone else ate it all. "Can I have a plate?" You asked. Reaching up to the upper shelf, Raph took a plate and gave it to you. You turned back to the pizza and nodded gratefully to him. You grabbed a peperoni and a meat lover as they were the only ones unfinished, then you went to his room.
You swing the door open, not even bothering to knock. "Hey, nerd emoji. I got you some dinner." Without seeming amused, Donnie turns around in his chair and faces you as he removes the plate from your grasp. "A thanks would be nice you know-." You become irritated as he ignores you more and more.
You give a frustrated sigh. "You're welcome." He doesn't answer once more. "You don't need to be so timid you know." Arms crossed; you recline against the wall. "It's okay to actually feel emotion."
"I do experience emotion," he responds.
"Not in the past hour or so I've been around you, you haven't."
"Maybe because you're just intolerable" He gives an eye roll before returning to his task. You scoff and then peek around his lab/room; everything was tech-related, and the space was a vivid purple. In an attempt to get him to talk to you again, you ask, "Did you make this?"
He responded "yes" in silence, getting back to work. A drone that was purple descended towards you. "Hey, dudette! You must be the girl Donnie was talking about under his breath! " He circles back and forth around you. "I'm Shelldon, but you can call me Shelly."
"Go away Shelldon." Donnie spoke sternly while averting his gaze from you. You grin and raise a brow. "He's already talking about me when we've only just met?"
"Hey, princess, don't get used to it. No one declared them to be positive things." He spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"But nobody said it was terrible either." You glared at him with a smirk.
He muttered something, but it was difficult to pick up what he said. It was Donnie who broke the stillness after a moment. "Are you able to leave? You're preventing me from working." You turn to face Shelldon as he floats back down close to you. "What nerve this guy has. Am I right?" Shelldon nods in affirmation.
As you exit the room, you see Mikey and Leo performing tricks on the skateboard ramp. As you were watching them do their antics, Mikey caught sight of you. "Hi (y/n)! Would you like to join us?" He walks over to you after getting off the skateboard. You pause for a moment before taking a look at it. What are you doing? You never learned. But there was something about this kid's energy that prevented you from saying no.
"Move out of the way Miguel. She's hoping to hitch a ride with Blue Justice." Leo moves his sibling aside with a shove. "Besides she's way out of your league." Though Mikey didn't perceive it that way, his tone was lighthearted. "I was just trying to be nice." How sweet the little bean is. Leo really didn't need to push him, so you couldn't help but feel horrible.
"Oh Mikey! Don't cry No quise hacerte daño." Although you don't know what he just said, you couldn't help but smile at the two boys. There was something about them. About all four of them. That made you feel like you were safe. But safe from what exactly? Probably nothing that bad.
...
Probably...

No quise hacerte daño- I didn't mean to hurt you.
