a door to you (Donatello X reader)

Kitten-Chapter 8

Sorry 🫶

"It's ok y/n, I completely understand.
Please don't cry."

He held you close as you silently cried in his surprisingly warm arms. He smelled weird, not bad weird but still. Weird. "So you're not mad?" He sighed and rested his head on top of yours.
"Of course not, you can't be mad at someone for not feeling the same way. Feelings are something you can't control, if I were to be mad at you then you might as well just punch me to death."

You giggled softly and let out a breath before letting go of him and smiling. "Thank you." You both got to your feet and he dusted himself off before breaking the awkward silence. "I think Mikey made breakfast, you wanna go eat?" You paused. You thought this would be awkward but he wasn't being weird about it and you didn't feel weird being near him even after saying you didn't like him.

"Sure Donnie, I'll join you guys." You all sat and ate Mikey's homemade pancakes, everyone was very chatty with each other and you enjoyed it. A lot. You didn't eat very much and kinda just talked. You all hung out the rest of the day until night came around and they went on their patrol.
You sat on the couch and watched an old cartoon. Until you got bored after about 20 minutes.

You lay sluggishly upside down on the couch before flopping down onto the ground.
"I have never been more bored" You got up and studied your clothes. These were yours? You thought about it for a moment. Wait how did Donnie get my clothes? Ding just then April had sent you a message reading: "Can you come by my house later tonight and please take back your stuff that you left here and never took back." Considering the fact that you and April had been bffs for years you never had really thought about how many things you left at her home during sleepovers.

Because it gives you something to do you texted back agreeing then made your way out of the sewers. You made sure no one saw your face as walked to April's apartment complex. In the alleyway in saw a cat limping around. "Aww poor little baby" You quickly made your way to it and crouched down to look at its hurt leg. Its skin was pierced with a sharp blade of glass. You brushed its head softly as you slowly pulled the glass from its leg.

Successfully you slid the shard out as the cat let out a loud meow. As you set down the glass a smooth flow of blood dripped down. You didn't move. The familiar feeling of hunger swirled in your stomach and saliva filled your mouth. The cat scurried down the alley like a mouse but this time you were the cat. You leaped like a feline onto its small body pinning it onto the concrete.

You wiped the red from your mouth and onto your pants before knocking on her door. She opened it a few seconds later and handed you a cardboard box then shutting the door in your face. You rolled your eyes and walked off back to the lair. You entered the still-empty lair and set down the box in the living area before putting a show on and sifting through the box. It contained clothes, books, jewelry, a blanket, and a lot of socks.

At the bottom of the box was a hoodie folded very neatly. When you picked it up it had a large amount of weight to it. You unwrapped the hoodie to reveal a small brown wooden box. As you went to open it you heard the guys come home from their patrol. They all threw themselves on the couch and let out a hard sigh.

"Ugh, you're still here? Y/n" Raph looked over at Donnie and flicked his arm "Ow! What was that for!" Sigh "I'll be in my lab." Donnie walked off along with Leo leaving you, Raph, and Mikey. Eventually, Mikey fell asleep, you assumed Raph was gonna leave but as soon as Mikey drifted off he spoke to you. "Hey y/n?" You turned around confused and you guys locked eyes. "Yeah?"

"Why is there blood all over your leg?"

You quickly looked down to see your thigh covered in blood. You panicked and ran to the bathroom locking yourself in. You turned on the sink and washed it all off with your shaking hands, Once you finished you sat yourself on the floor and cupped your face with your hands until you felt better.
~•~

You walked out into the empty living room to get some clothes to change into before heading into Donnie's room. You laid on his bed trying to fall asleep for a while but you felt incredibly guilty from earlier and couldn't manage to get your brain to shut off. "Maybe Donnie's still up, he's always up to talk." Gracefully you slide off his
Bed and silently into his lab, "Donnie?"

...

He wasn't there? You peeked back in the living room and kitchen but he wasn't anywhere to be found. You tried to go back into his room but you ran into Leo. "Oh uh sorry Leo!" He looked down at you clearly a little panicked. "Do you know where Donnie is?" Now getting a little worried for him you pulled out your phone and sent him a text.

"Any answer y/n?"

"No."

Leo sighed and got raph then they both left to find him. Leaving you and a very much asleep Mikey, well I guess also master splinter. Bored, you walked into the kitchen and opened the freezer to see if they had anything but you were now face to face with an ice cream cat? That is also living? "This world is taunting me."
