Learning to Love (Raph)

Part 1

It was nearing night when you get a text from one of your friends. It was Raphael and the text read, "We're heading out to patrol, wanna come?" Your heart leapt when you read the text. You were really excited you were able to go on patrol with the guys, now that you've had enough training. You were even more thrilled that Raph was the first to text you. You had a huge crush on the hot head and it wasn't going to change anytime soon. Just a simple text would send your heart racing. You know he must like you back since he shows his soft side to you way more than anyone else. He just doesn't have the guts to admit to his feelings and that frustrates you too much. You would rather him confess to you first. So, for now, you suck it up.

You grabbed your stuff for the night and waited on your roof for the guys to meet you. You stood on the hard, cold concrete floor of the roof in silence and patience. It was quite a while they left you waiting there until you felt a familiar presence behind you. You smirked and threw your leg around to kick whoever was behind you only to be stopped by a two fingered hand. You and Raph both smiled at each other as the others emerged from the shadows and Raph let go of your ankle. "You're too loud," you teased him and he retorted with, "You're too slow." You made no excuse but couldn't peel your eyes away from his until Leo cleared his throat and spoke up about tonight's patrol. Leo decided that we split up, but the bad part is you didn't get to go with Raph.

You were with Donnie, Raph went with Mikey, and Master Splinter called Leo back to the lair for some reason. The streets were pretty quiet except for you and Donnie's encounter with some Purple Dragons robbing a jewelry store nearby. You took your bunch down rather quickly but you didn't walk away without a mark. One of the thugs sliced your arm from your elbow to your shoulder in an awkward diagonal line. Thank goodness Donnie was there to patch you up. He always had an emergency medical kit in his duffel bag and anyone who was as careless as you, is lucky to have Don by your side. Donnie had told you it wasn't anything serious but he would have to stitch it up when you would get back. You didn't feel anything until he point it out; then it started to sting.

It wasn't long until Donnie and you both got a message from Leo saying to call it a night and head back to the lair. Donnie lifted the manhole cover for you to climb down; just like a gentlemen. You were moving silently through the sewer when Donnie suddenly asked you something a little personal for your taste. "Hey, (Y/N), Do you like my brother," you both halted in your path and you stared at him with wide eyes like he just figured out the world's biggest secret. "Which brother are you referring to?" your voice is jumpy and you look everywhere but his face with an innocent smile. You swore you began to sweat. "Raph," he knew that you knew what he was talking about and was probably getting annoyed with you avoiding eye contact. He sighed like he was going to give up after saying one more thing, "Look, I'm not making a big deal out of it if that's what you're afraid of, but I'm just saying that you are both obvious and wanted to see if my observations are correct." You're ears perked up when something he said sounded like intimation.

"Both?" you started to smile brightly as your cheeks flushed. You could feel the butterflies in your stomach flutter wildly and your heart was warmed by the fact that Raphael might like you back. Donnie nods slowly and gives you a smile of encouragement. He had his answer, now he was going to play the love doctor.

Part 2

When you and Donnie got back to the lair, Don went straight to his lab to get the items he needed to fix your arm and you sat next to Raph. You flushed when he gave that cocky smirk of his, asking where've you've been. His smile didn't stay for long; he noticed the slash mark on your arm faster than you thought. He took your wrist, mindfully scanning the injury. He looked deeply in your eyes, expecting an answer. You failed to answer, lost in the fact Raph was technically holding your hand but fortunately Don came over just in time to explain for you while he started stitching your arm back together. Although Donnie was trying to fix your arm, Raph never let go of your hand. You were becoming stolid and you could only register the warmth around your hand. Donatello felt a little awkward, thinking he should probably just leave you two be. Luckily, he was almost finished and would leave the place he wasn't very welcomed in.
