Raph lead you into the lair, careful not to make too much noise. It was insanely late, and you were both exhausted. Raph walked you to your room, guiding you through the dark. You opened your door slowly, not wanting to disturb anyone who was sleeping.

"Thank you Raph" you said, your voice barely above a whisper. "I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't saved me" you hung your head slightly, but Raphs hand on your shoulder brought your attention back to his face.

"I'm just glad you're safe. I don't know what I would have done if I had lost you." you blushed, and Raph placed a hand on your cheek, cupping your face. "I'll see you in the morning, okay?" you nodded, smiling slightly.

You felt Raph pull you closer, wrapping his free arm around your waist as he kissed you gently. You let your eyes flutter closed as you kissed back, bringing your arms up to wrap around his neck.

You jumped away from each other as the light in the lounge sprang to life. You turned your head frantically to see who exactly had caught you. Donnie was standing, arms crossed in front of the light switch.

"Glad to see you two are getting along" he teased, smiling wide. "I-it's not what it looks like" you stuttered. Donnie only laughed in response. "I'll leave you two to your devices" he said, spinning on his heels and walking back to the lab.

Raph rolled his eyes, then turned back to you, a smirk present on his face. "I guess you should go to bed now huh?" he spoke in a playful tone. "Yeah, i guess i should" you replied, keeping your voice low.

"I'll see you in the morning," he whispered, pulling your face closer to his. You smiled as his lips collided with yours, wrapping his arms around your waist. You painfully pulled away from the kiss. "Goodnight (Y/N)" Raph whispered as he walked towards his room.

You closed your door slowly, so as not to make any noise, then laid on your bed. You couldn't help but let a small squeal escape your lips. Raphael Hamato, the boy who had opposed the idea of you living here from the start, who kept to himself and kept his emotions bottled up liked you.

He liked you

And you liked him too

You buried your face in your pillow. You kept thinking about that moment in the alley. Raphs eyes had seemed to glow with passion as he confessed his feelings to you and dear God he was a good kisser.

What would April think?
