Author's Note: I honestly have no idea where this came from, but I think it's kinda cute. It may suck a little, but oh well. Enjoy!

        Yet another argument. He loves him a lot, but they argue quite frequently. He's starting to question if he really loves him back. He did love a girl in the past, but he's just not sure. He was almost convinced that Casey was over April, now he's not so sure. He was the one to ask him out. There could still be a chance.

        Raph and Casey had just recently became a couple, and besides cuddle and kiss every once in a while, all they've done was argue. Sometimes they've almost crossed the line for each other, but something always gets the other to apologize and they end up either in a makeout session or a nonstop cuddle-death grip. It didn't seem like one of those times.

        This time, Casey accidentally stepped over for all four. By calling Raph a freak, that practically went to all of them. It was the three youngest who were affected most by it. Leo was just offended, but the others were really hurt. Raph and Donnie feeling like they'd never have the chance and Mikey...just being Mikey.

        Raph sat in his room on his bed, questioning if Casey actually loved him back. After it rolled off his lips, he slapped a hand over his mouth, his eyes flooding with sincerity. His flooded with tears, and reused to let them down until he got to his room. Casey was blurting out apologies, but he didn't bother to stay. He was just too hurt to listen.

        His eyes were now bloodshot from crying, the last of his sobs getting softer. There is a knock at his door, in which he jumps at. He wipes his eyes with the back of his hand, hoping whoever it is wouldn't notice. He opens the door, finding Casey standing in the doorway.

        He smiles sadly, his eyes also bloodshot. Raph smiles back, not knowing what to say. "Can I..." his voice trails off, gesturing to his room. He nods, stepping out of the doorway. He comes in slowly, sitting on his bed afterwards. Raph follows, sitting right next to him. They sit in silence for a moment. A short, awkward, uncomfortable, silence. "You know I love you, right?" Casey asks, breaking the silence. Raph didn't look up at him, but he nodded. He could tell the tears were starting up again, in both their eyes. He heard a soft sob from Casey, and he glances over. "How much do you love me?" Raph asks back, hoping he won't chase him off this way. Casey holds him close, as if he and his life would completely fall apart if he ever let go, "More than I could ever tell you."

        They sit I'm silence for another few seconds. A soft sob escapes Casey's lips. He finally looks over at him, noticing that his tears are restarting. He knows it's from guilt, which was probably partially his fault. He turns around, hugging him back. His arms wrap around his neck as Casey's stay around his waist. "I'm so sorry. All I've ever really done to you inn this relationship is hurt you and scare you, and I'm really sorry," he sobs. Raph his him closer, "It's okay. I'm sorry for making you feel bad, I know you don't try to hurt me."

        They sit there in silence for a few minutes, waiting for Casey to calm down. When he does, Raph asks the question he's been wanting to since Casey asked him out. "Case?" he asks softly. He brakes away, his shinny brown eyes staring into his vibrant greens. "Why me?" Casey arches an eyebrow, "What do you mean 'why you?'" He simply shrugs, looking down at the floor, "I mean...everyone is so much better than me. Donnie's pretty much exactly like you, in a way. Mikey is really fun and funny, always fun to hang with. And Leo is just so perfect, he's-" He was cut off by Casey's lips being pressed against his. He pulled away a good ten seconds later. "Raph, I chose you because you're better than anyone else. Like you said, Leo is too perfect. I don't like perfect, which is one reason I love you. Mikey is fun, true, but so are you. And Donnie is just my friend. He's like a brother to me," he replies. He blushes when Casey finishes his speech. He blushes deeper when he realizes he calls Donnie a brother.

        He smiles, thanking him for the reassurance. He smiles back, paving his forehead, "You're welcome."

Author's Note: This also may have sucked a bit. Either that or I'm just really insecure about my writing. Then again, I'm always insecure about my writing. The plot was much better in my head, I tried writing it down. Sometimes I'm just not very good with wording what comes to my head. I can barely even do that when I speak. Hope you enjoyed anyways.
