Promise (Raphael X Reader)

9

Jason Todd. Yes, part of his hair is white the picture makes it look like it is grey.

"(Y/n), " his deep rough voice breaks the trance. I bit my bottom lip, scared of what he'll say? Scared of what I'll do?
Inching closer toward the mutant in front of me, he follows my lead.
Only a breath away, "Go for it (y/n)." I froze as if time stopped. A lifetime passes the distance closes, I feel tough but soft lips connect with mine. He kisses me gently, but as I melt he goes further. Deepening the kiss, pulling me on to his lap until we are chest to chest. I don't want to pull away yet, I anchor myself by wrapping my arms around his neck. Following my lead, his muscular arms wrap around my waist locking us in the kiss.
Pulling away from each other lips, we rest our foreheads onto each other, gasping for air.
"Would you be mine?" He then finishes.
Once again I close the distance between and collide my lips against his. This drug. I knew I wanted to try, but now I'm hooked. It felt like everything you ever heard, electrifying, infinite, and like you're complete.
"Yes." I answer after I pull away. Is this what my mom felt with my dad or with Ivy? Despite the differences, and the risk they each held.
My phone rings, a notification pops up saying I have a new message from Damian. The only thing that concerned me was the time. It was late once again making this moment I was anxious about, gone.
"Raph, it's getting late." I stay on his lap but lock my eyes on my phone knowing if I look at him I wouldn't want him to leave.
Picking me up as he gets up he walks up the stairs to my bedroom.
Once we enter my room we go through the windows that lead to the balcony.
"I'll be back tomorrow." He kisses my forehead before letting me down. Then he left, jumping onto the roofs and disappearing into the night. I lean over the railing, I may have not made the first move at least by the end of the night I was able to say 'yes' and I got to kiss him. Sighing, there's a knock on my door frame. "How did it go?" I turn to Damian leaning on my open door wearing sweatpants.
"I have a boyfriend, so I say tonight was successful. Although he did make the first move." I answer him.
"Nice. So does that mean no more you and Jason?"
"There was barely anything there with me and him." I shrug.
"Good, don't need any boy drama. Sadly for you, I am hungry."
I laugh "What you think I wouldn't make anything for you? There's a plate waiting for you in the kitchen."
Damian excitedly pushes off the door to head downstairs, "After I finish we're playing Mario Cart!" I hear him exclaim from the stairs. I shake my head before heading down to the living room to set up the Switch knowing Damian will shovel everything down.

I woke up on the sofa with Damian on the one adjacent to mine. We both passed out playing last night. Making it Saturday morning. Checking my phone I see it is nine twelve in the morning. Standing up I go towards Damian to wake him.
"Damian come on wake up." I whine slightly.
"We can go work out." I suggest hoping it'll wake him.
He stirs, "alright, but after that, we're finishing our project." He mumbles.

"Ugh, finally finish." I flop onto the living room rug. I hear Damian chuckle slightly. "And all before everyone wakes up."
"What are you doing tonight?" He then questions me.
"Not sure, I know I'm seeing Raph later but that's it. I don't know what we're doing." I sit up.
"Maybe he'll take you out instead of you two hiding in your room?" He smirks at me. "Really?" I roll my eyes.
Jason comes out of his room yawning wearing only his gym shorts. "Long night?" I ask him.
"Shut it." He grumbles. Getting up I follow him to the kitchen. "What's wrong, Jason?" "(Y/n) do you and Damian ever want to go back? Helping civilians, beating up bad guys?" I grab his hand. "You know damn well we miss it. It's just not safe yet, plus the second someone sees us we're screwed and... You know people are scared of us being here since that means something is going on. You see how freak they are now with foot clan attack."I answer.
He squeezes my hand, "Right, but... If it were safe, would you join me?"
I smile at Jason thinking back to when we used to spar, how we all played in the backyard. "Now Jason, how much have we gone through. You think I'm going to let your grumpy ass have all the fun?" We laugh.
Damian walks in "You guys want to spar like we used to?" Before anything could be said I ran to the sparring room we have. There's some equipment there but not for a gym. Beating them to the room I hold the door close. "Open up, (y/n)!" I hear Jason.
"What's the password?" I sing.
It was quiet, I knew they we were going to charge the door. Running away from the door. I head to a rock climbing wall that we use to practice climbing buildings.
Climbing up I take my seat on a fake ledge. They charge at the door and stumble onto the floor. I try not to laugh, "You know it's open." Climbing down I join them on the mat.

Alright, my beautiful readers, I'm ending it here. Next chapter we shall see what Raphael does for you. Do you go on a date? Do you join Jason even though it means breaking the promise you made to Bruce and Richard.
