author's note: it took a hot sec but here’s the gift fic for @/casualjagodek!! thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to write this adorable fic, i hope u all enjoy!
“That’s it?” You squint your eyes.
Raph looks at his phone screen then back to you. “Is the brightness too low or somethin?”
You breathe out a chuckle. “It’s just that I didn’t know you were getting all worked up over…that.”
It was some kind of stuffed animal of indeterminable origin. It had the head of a cow and the ears of a rabbit. Unconventional, but cute.
You knew Raph had a large collection of stuffed animals. Some from childhood, some he bought only months ago. Recently, he had been subtly dropping clues about how excited he was about something. He’d frantically check emails and ask you what the date was occasionally. Asking him about it outright just made him retreat back into secrecy.
Just last week, you caught him on your way out of the lair. The two of you passed each other in a particularly narrow subway tunnel. You stared expectantly at him while his eyes were glued squarely on his phone screen. You’d never seen Raph this…distracted? Whether he liked it or not, you paid attention to stuff like this. He was your best friend, acting cagey and suspicious for no reason.
You try clearing your throat and kicking at a random piece of trash on the ground to rouse his attention. “Texting someone hot?” You joke.
“Yeah.” Raph responds nonchalantly before blinking his eyes down to you. “Wai— No! No, I wasn’t—“
With a quick wave, you turn to head out again. “See ya.”
You figured even Raph kept a secret or two of his own, so you didn’t pry after that. Living with four brothers and Splinter, you’re sure he never got to have much of a private life.
When he finally (inevitably) let you in on the secret thing he’s been obsessing over, you tried to go in with an open mind. It could have been anything, so the potential of Raph confessing that he had been texting someone hot was miniscule. Maybe they were only sort-of attractive, or better yet, less attractive than you.
You didn’t know why, but the possibility of this hot mystery person existing just didn’t sit right with you.
“Let me see—“
Grabbing his phone from him, you scroll through the webpage. The image of a strange stuffed animal made you mildly more interested. The quality was actually really good, as far as stuffed animals go.
“What is it?”
“It’s, y’know…” Raph hums to himself, trying his best to cover up his embarrassment. “I just thought it was cute.”
“Huginn and Muninn.”
Your eyes widen as you scroll to the top of the page. The logo proudly displayed little gargoyle mascots that you knew you recognized from somewhere. Excitement replaces the jealousy that was festering in your mind just a few seconds earlier.
“Yeah! They started their own company a couple of years ago. I didn’t think they were still around either.” He shrugs.
“That’s crazy!” You hand the phone back to Raph and ramble on enthusiastically. “Well, now I see why you were so nervous. It’s expensive as hell.”
Without thinking, you grab at Raph’s wrist and use your other hand to zoom in on the plush. Once Raph got to the third digit, his heart dropped into his stomach. You were right. Even for his budget, it was steep. Raph didn’t like to splurge too often on himself, but this was a rare exception.
“You’re right, it is crazy,” he chuckles. Your grip on his wrist was also starting to dampen his spirit.
Not because he didn’t like you holding his wrist, or his phone, or his hand for that matter. He actually liked it a lot.
Which was the real problem.
Raph has been massively infatuated with you for months. He lost track of just how long it had been. Whenever he was around you, he felt off. Usually it just involved a lot of fumbling over words, being generally clumsier. He knew he wasn’t as confident as Leo, or smooth like Donnie, or even as honest as Mikey. He was just him.
While Raph anguished internally, you were practically none the wiser. You don’t seem to notice how sweaty and flustered he was all of the sudden, but you go back to innocently staring at him.
You raise your eyebrows. “So?”
That familiar, playful lilt in your voice makes all time stop for Raph. It really wasn’t fair— the amount of power your smile and your presence had over him.
Raph tosses his phone away into the far reaches of the lair before crossing his arms defiantly. “No, don’t try to convince me. It’s literally the most expensive one.”
As you calmly move your head to miss the flying phone, you smile to yourself. “Come on. This is what you’ve been obsessed with for months now. When was the last time you did something just for you?”
“Even if I did have the money, why would I spend it on something so impractical. I mean, I’m not embarrassed about liking stuffed animals or anything.”
While Raph continues ranting and pacing around, you’ve secretly pulled out your phone and looked up the plush. Without hesitation, you add it to your cart and type in your credit card.
“Sure,” you lazily nod. “You’re very secure in your masculinity.”
“Exactly!” Raph spins around to face you again. “I knew I made the right decision.”
“Funny, I was just about to say the same thing. Boom!” You take a confident step forward and reveal the check-out screen to him. At first he seems similarly excited, if a little confused.
“What?” His tone is light at first, before he realizes what you just did. “You didn’t.” A small frown tugs at his mouth.
“I did. Consider it an early birthday present.”
Raph winces, wringing his hands together. “Awesome! No, that’s great. Thank you.”
You purse your lips. “What happened? You were just all—“
What was the big deal? Did you accidentally offend him somehow?
“No, it’s not that. It’s just that the plush is…kinda not in New York.”
“Right. There’s this thing called mail, where people can send you stuff from all over the world.” You smirk, giving him a friendly pat on the cheek. “Don’t worry about it.”
“Didn’t you read it?” He shakes his head ruefully. “It’s pickup only.”
You glance to the side. “Oh. Well, then I’ll just grab Leo’s anime swords— I mean, Leo?”
Shit. You didn’t mean to let that slip out.
“You’ve been using Leo’s odachi to portal places again, haven’t you?”
Feeling cornered, you give a quick nod.
Silence.
You knew Raph must be giving you the most disapproving look right now. You turn around and find yourself to be correct.
“It was just to pick up food! And I am not buying a car.” You huff, trying to hide your shame.
Your shoulders tense up and relax as you give up. “Fine, I’ll just do it the old fashioned way.”
Your compromise doesn’t seem to ease Raph much. In fact, he seemed sad. You stop to watch him fall face-first into the couch. A couple pizza boxes stacked beside it topple over and fall as he lays there.
“Raph!” You frown. “It’s my treat. Is that what you’re worried about? Money?”
With his head buried deep in a pillow, he groans pathetically. “No.”
If only you knew.
Carefully, you kneel down to be eye-level with him. “If you’re worried about travel, it’s fine. I’ll just go to…” You check the email for the shop’s address. “New Jersey.”
Raph shoots up from the pillow with a seriousness that surprises you. “Absolutely not.” Grabbing your shoulders, he gives them a protective squeeze. “I wouldn’t let you do that.”
Because I like you too much.
“Then what?” You mimic Raph by placing a hand on his shoulder and shaking gently. “It’s not that big of a deal, okay?”
“Yes it is! Just—“ He moves away from your hand and sits up.
Don’t make me say it.
Okay, now you were officially worried. You quietly watch, only a little hurt that Raph pulled away from your touch.
Raph sighs, similarly ashamed at how he retreated from you. Slowly, he scooches over and silently invites you to sit beside him. You look at him, then back at your phone.
“I’m sorry. I don’t know what got into me,” he frowns. “It’s just hard to talk about this kinda stuff sometimes.”
Politely, you ease your way onto the cushion next to him. “It’s okay, I get it.”
“You do?”
You finally force yourself to meet Raph’s gaze. As you turn your head to look up, you nearly fall over at the sight of him mere inches from your face.
“Ah, yeah,” you manage to get out. Covering up your bashfulness with a half-hearted smile doesn’t make you feel any less vulnerable though. You really didn’t know what the hell he was talking about, but you want to understand.
You felt lightheaded and nauseous, like the moment right before a roller coaster plummets you into the earth at 80 miles per hour. You didn’t like roller coasters very much.
You also didn’t like it when you were so moved by Raph’s handsomeness and kindness that it rendered you speechless.
Raph searches your face as you sit dumbstruck. “I just don’t want you to go through all this trouble to get me some silly stuffed animal or anything.”
He smiles at you, but you can tell he’s still holding something back. You don’t know what it is, and you don’t know what you could say that wouldn’t ultimately embarrass the crap out of the both of you. All you can do is smile back.
“If that’s what you want.” You reel back and push yourself off of the couch. “Honest?”
Raph pauses, feeling torn. He wasn’t being honest, but now didn’t feel like the right time to crack open that emotional can of worms.
Nodding resolutely, he smiles again. “Honest.”
“So, I’ll just get a refund and we’ll pretend this whole thing never happened?” You feel a bead of sweat fall from your brow, and you pray Raph doesn’t notice.
“Perfect.” Similarly, he gets up and turns to hide the remnants of blush coloring his face. “I gotta go…punch a wall or somethin’.”
And like that, he disappears into the shadows of the lair, leaving you bereft with his departure.
“Well,” you announce to the empty room. “Good thing I’m a liar.”
How bad could Jersey be anyway?
—
It was worse.
“Next stop for Hackensack. All passengers for Hackensack.” A canny voice chimes in through the speakers. They seemed just as thrilled to be here as you did.
Like the genius you were, you decided to go over Raph’s head and book a train ride to the store. You’d used the subway plenty of times before, so slow-ass public transportation was no stranger to you.
But this…this was something else.
What was supposed to be a simple round trip turned into hours of sitting still on the tracks, waiting for other freight trains to pass by. The sweltering heat of the summer also made any sort of travel as slow as molasses. ‘Go to Jersey,’ you said, you’ll get together with Huginn and Muninn, have a few laughs.
A few passengers file down the aisle to exit the train. It takes your brain a few extra moments to register that this was also your stop. As you lean up from your spot against the window, a careless businessman bumps against your knee trying to get out with all his fuck-you suitcases and laptop bags.
You’ll have to apologize to Raph for unfortunately being right.
Oh yeah, Raph. You almost forgot why you came here in the first place. He’d been texting you about this and that today, and you usually responded to his texts immediately.
A frantic buzzing in your pocket makes your heart nearly stop. A phone call? You fumble around trying to grab it and your things as you try and get past a large family blocking the aisle.
You unlock your phone and bring it to your sweaty face. “Yello?”
“What kind of pizza do you want for later? Mikey said you just like plain cheese, but that didn’t sound right, so…” Raph’s voice is light and casual. You do your best to mimic it.
“Oh, yeah. He’s right, I’m kinda boring— AH!” A loud kid from earlier runs by you, barreling right over your left foot. It takes all your willpower not to scream directly into your speaker, but it’s no use.
“Ey, are you alright? What was that?”
After a second of quietly fighting back the manly tears, you recover. “Just…dropped my laptop on my foot. Ouch, ow.” Not your best performance, but it seems to do the trick.
“Ah.”
“Listen, I’m gonna call you back. Now’s not a good time.”
Before you realize it, the train lurches forward in earnest. A cold chill runs up your spine as you nearly trip backwards when the floor shifts again. “Fuck!”
You missed your stop, of course you did! A stern attendant ushers you back to an open seat, and you flip down defeated.
Raph’s voice cries out from your phone again. “Are you okay? Hello?”
“Would you like a complimentary snack?” The attendant’s annoying voice only frustrates you further. “We have pretzels, peanuts–”
“Thank you,” you spit, grabbing at the baggie in her hand. With one last terse smile, she finally leaves you be. You don't even care about the couple of peanuts that explode from the bag as you tear into it.
“Sorry. But actually, I’m gonna be a little late today. Y’know, busy with…” You glance around to try and find a worthy excuse. “Stuff.”
All of the sudden, Raph seemed strangely undeterred by your obvious lie. “Oh, sure. Stuff!”
“Yeah, but I should be back–”
As you turn your head back to the empty seat to the left of you, your heart nearly stops. It seems that in the time it took for you to come up with your phony excuse, Raph had just used Leo’s sword to portal himself directly beside you. On a train. The blue glow of the mystic portal illuminates your shocked expression.
“Ha! I knew it!” Raph points an accusatory finger as he ducks through to sit across from you.
“Uh– I…” Your voice stops in your throat. You wish you could say this wasn’t what it looks like. He doesn’t seem to be angry, more so just vindicated. You imagine he probably knew all along.
“Wait. You just used–”
Raph, for a brief moment, becomes sheepish. “W-Well, Leo was out doing–” He waves at the air. “Not the point. You’re out getting that plush, aren’t you? You lied.”
Raph clutches at his chest with both hands in a purposeful show of melodrama. He knew from the second you two parted ways that day. Sometimes it got a little frustrating dealing with how stubborn you could be. But then again, he was just as bad. Maybe even worse.
In all honesty, he wasn’t even mad. Mad that you lied to him, sure. But ultimately, it just made him flattered. It almost made him want to confess right then and there, but he holds his tongue.
After mulling around your answer, all you can do is shrug. “I’m…sorry?”
“Wow,” Raph smirks, leaning back against the uncomfortably tiny seat.
“What?” You blush. “You want me to apologize for getting you a gift? A gift that’s all the way over there now?” You point vaguely into the space behind Raph before burying your face in your hands. You don’t really know if it’s more from the embarrassment of getting caught or the fact that there was no denying it anymore.
You liked Raph. You liked him enough to travel to the most wretched hive of scum and villainy there was, apparently. You didn’t really mind Jersey, but at this point it was sort of a weird in-joke. You’re sure if you and Raph just took a trip out here yourselves, without all the deceit and unspoken awkwardness, you’d have fun.
Just tell him. It’s so obvious, isn't it?
“What, you mean…?” Raph turns to follow your hand, and puts all the pieces together. “Oh, Y/N. You didn’t have to–”
You interrupt. “Didn’t have to what? Buy a stupidly overpriced train ticket to get a stupidly overpriced stuffed animal? From some stupid little gargoyles? For some stupid, dumb…” You stand up suddenly, trying to get out all the pent up energy you evidently had bubbling just beneath the surface. You pace around the empty area at the back of the train for a second, ranting and babbling to yourself.
“For some stupid, dumb turtle dude. For a turtle dude!” The slight absurdity of the whole situation seems to dawn on you, and you can’t help but smile a little. The small smile widens into a grin and you start to chortle. You turn back to Raph and finally collapse back into your seat, absolutely spent from just that momentary show of emotion. Life would be so much easier if feelings didn’t get in the way, or turtle dudes. But, here you were, a pathetic, bumbling human trying their best not to make their amazing, strong, talented, funny, sweet best friend know what’s so blatantly clear.
You love him, idiot!
While you fall back down into your seat, Raph takes the opportunity to really analyze the situation from all angles. Leo was always better at this kind of stuff than him, but he needed to think carefully about this. He was usually prone to jumping headfirst into everything, for better and worse. Right now, his gut feeling was telling him the same thing as yours.
Just tell them. They went through all this trouble for you, so what’s the problem? What a loser…
Absent-mindedly, Raph picks up the bag of snacks you had and starts popping a couple into his mouth. Eating usually helped his brain slow down enough for him to focus up again.
You look up and stare out into the rapidly-changing environment outside of the train. You always liked sitting near a window whenever you traveled. To stay still while the world moved at a break-neck pace, it felt euphoric to watch the trees and buildings zoom by. It made you calm for a moment. After a charged couple of seconds, you catch your breath again. You didn’t realize you hadn’t been breathing.
“I really am sorry. I just wanted to do something nice–” You force yourself to turn your body back to Raph, and you look up in slow motion. You stare on in horror for what feels like hours as you watch him swallow a singular peanut.
Raph looks down at you curiously. It seemed like you were about to say something important. He leans down instinctually to get more eye-level with you. “What? What is it?”
He bites at the inside of his cheek, waiting for you to say what was just sitting at the tip of your tongue.
In a panic, all you can think to do is slap the bag of poison from his right hand and scream. “AAAH–!”
“Wha–?” Raph’s hand opens up. Lying on the ground, he reads the letters slowly, speaking them aloud. “Honey roasted…peanuts.”
“YOU’RE GONNA DIE! RAPH!”
“Spit it out! Throw up!” You don’t really know what you’re saying at this point. All you see is Raph and the panic in his eyes. “Stop the train!”
“S-STOP–! Choking–!” His voice comes out broken and frantic. “The pen!”
His hands move immediately to his belt, fumbling around for the epipen he’s never had to use until now. How could he be this spectacularly dumb? Not only were you probably about to pour your heart and soul out to him, he was about to do the same. In the background, a small crowd of confused employees and passengers turn to look at the weird scene unfolding at the back of the car. The same passive-aggressive attendant creeps up slowly next to you to try and de-escalate.
“Excuse me, is there a problem folks?” Her sickly, saccharine smile makes your blood boil.
Without thinking, you turn and snap back. “Yes, there’s a problem– My boyfriend’s freaking dying and you’re standing there handing out peanuts? Are you insane?!”
Raph’s eyes somehow go wider than they already were.
Glancing back down, you realize that he’s been trying and failing to communicate to you that you need to stick him with the pen. You snatch Raph’s belt clean off of his waist and riffle through all the annoying little pockets until you find it.
“Here! Here it is Raph!” You nearly cry from relief. Smiling, you grab ahold of his right hand and close his fist around the pen. “You’re not gonna die!”
Thankfully in doing so you release Raph’s neck, allowing him to speak again. “G-Great! Thank you…”
In the background, you can already hear the employees start to circle around you and Raph. You might not ever get to ride a train again after this, but you didn’t care. Fuck trains.
Raph’s hand stills, suddenly overcome with fear.
“Raph?” You frown at him.
“I’m scared.” He peeks over at you, his face twisted with shame.
“UGH! Fine!” You take the initiative and grab the pen, removing the cap with your teeth like a badass. With all your strength, which you figure you’ll probably need to fully pierce Raph’s thick, leathery skin, you reel back and stab it into his upper leg.
You close your eyes, content with having finally ended the nightmare. “Phew…”
Meanwhile, Raph waits rather impatiently. “Sometime today would be nice!”
Oh, you didn’t actually do it. “Right.”
You repeat the same motion with your hand, pulling back before jamming it in. Surely you didn’t chicken out a second time.
“Y/N!” Raph shouts, exasperated and confused.
“Goddamnit!” You grit your teeth and pull back again, looking at him tearfully. “I can’t do it! I’m a liar and a coward.”
Looking at your utterly terrified face, Raph can’t help but comfort you. Even as he feels his throat begin to tighten up, he takes his free hand to lay it over your trembling one. “No you’re not, you’re–”
“No, I am a liar. I lied to you, I’ve lied to Leo and Donnie and Mikey, I’ve lied to April and Splinter.” You try to wipe away the tears before looking back at Raph’s leg. “I lied because I was scared.”
While nobody’s come to you per se and asked you to your face, you know they knew. They all knew. Maybe you could have gotten over yourself for once and just come clean to everyone, but you knew you couldn’t. The idea of potentially ruining a friendship that’s been built for years with one awkward confession or less than charming moment, it made you absolutely terrified. You thought you would rather die than confess.
But, if all this secrecy and denial was going to literally kill him, that terrified you even more.
“Raph…” You swallow your pride and steel yourself.
To both of your surprise, the train comes to one final stop. The breaks screech to a halt, making the car lurch forward and back with incredible force. You lock eyes with Raph just as the train launches you forward, forcing your hand to push on the epipen’s plunger and jam it into his leg.
“Woah–!” Raph then catches you as you land squarely on his broad chest.
The pain of the needle didn’t even phase Raph. Though the effect of the pen took an immediate effect, his throat still felt tight. His heart was thundering in his chest, his hands felt cold and clammy. Was this still an allergic reaction?
“Sorry for the delay folks. We just have a minor…mutant medical matter to…mediate.” The canny voice of the speakers makes everyone else on the train groan in annoyance.
The two of you continue to stare at one another. Weirdly enough, neither of you feel the anxiety or weight of the unspoken words you both felt before. The feelings you both shared that forced you to stay silent, to laugh off the odd comments or blushes that threatened to expose you to each other. There was no fear anymore.
There was just you and him.
–
Raph gives one last ‘thank you’ and ‘sorry’ to the conductor and the ambulance people who were brought in just in case. The train dumped the two of you off at a random stop before moving on, leaving you both in the empty indoor waiting area of the train station.
You stare blankly ahead as you feel Raph sit next to you again. The bench you’re both on feels cold on your hand as you drum your fingers against it.
You guess you’re the one who needs to talk first. “So…”
“I like you,” Raph finishes.
You blink, raising your head up slowly. “I...like you.”
For a moment of silence, you each look off into the distance and melt into laughter. It’s an enormous relief to finally realize that the two of you have been harboring the exact same feelings and being afraid for the exact same reason.
But at the same time, it all seems so silly now.
“Why did we wait this long?” You chuckle, feeling the tears coming back.
Raph bumps your shoulder affectionately as he tries to fight back his own. “Why was I such a coward?”
You gather yourself and look up at him. “I can just see the obituary. Raphael Hamato, death by 1 (one) peanut.” You hold up your index finger.
Raph guffaws and breaks out into a full-belly laugh, and you can’t help but egg him on.
“I should’ve known. Only in Jersey.”
The two of you exchange a heartfelt smile as you unintentionally lean in. Raph’s concentration gets interrupted however when a couple of unexpected figures fly by outside. It looked like a weird, fat bird or something.
“What the…” Raph stands up to investigate.
As he pushes open the doors to look around, he almost trips over a mysterious bag sitting on the ground. He leans down and picks up a sticky note attached to the handle.
Here you go Red! Hope this makes up for all the times we helped Draxum try to kill you and your family. Also, how’s he doing? He won’t answer our texts, calls, or letters. Love, Huginn and Muninn <3
Raph smiles and shakes his head. “No way.”
Sure enough, inside the bag was the weird cow-rabbit plush that kicked off this whole crusade in the first place. He supposed he should be happy to finally have it.
Sneaking up behind him, you peek around Raph’s shell. “Wow, what service.”
“To be honest, I don’t really know if I want it anymore.” Raph smiles down at you warmly, putting the plush back in the bag and handing it to you.
“Oh no, don’t do that.” You grin and push the bag back to him.
“Come on, you deserve it.” He hands it back.
“You almost died from a peanut.” You push it again.
Raph’s sunny disposition doesn’t falter. “I want you to have it.”
Your eyes darken and you give the bag one final push into his stomach. “Just take the damn plush.”
Raph’s pouts bashfully before he relents. “You really are stubborn, you know?”
Smirking, you grab your bag and sling it over your shoulder. “And you’re so perfect? I sure know how to pick ‘em.”
Before reaching for his phone to text Leo, Raph watches on curiously as you change your mind and grab for the plush. “Hm?”
In an impulsive move, you hold the plush up to your face to give it a good once over. It was even cuter in person. You close your eyes and give its snout a tiny smooch before handing it back to Raph. You don’t try and hide the deep red your cheeks have turned.
Picking up on your invitation, Raph gingerly takes the plush into his hands and plants a kiss of his own on the same exact spot.
Though his heart felt full to the point of bursting at the seams, he didn’t mind the feeling. He felt bigger, more complete.

OH YEAH i’m almost to 200 followers!! if anybody has any ideas for how to celebrate (a oneshot fic giveaway or something, idk) lemme know!! ✨✨ i’ve never done a raffle online before but that might be fun…im open to any and all ideas
life has been rough/busy lately so apologies for no updates but my hiatus should be over by the end of this month..thank u all for sticking around and reading!! 💖💖
do you ever feel victimized by fanfic authors when you make them fanart and then they give YOU compliments and you try to give THEM compliments and its a vicious cycle??? ♥♥
