If i did things wrong w ask manners or something pls let me know :))
Youāre chillen dude, yours is the first ask Iāve had since I got back on tumblr! So I tried to make something to your liking.
Donnieās no idiot. Quite the opposite actually. He can tell by any standards, mutant, human or otherwise, that Aprilās an attractive girl.
Heās been sweeping his thoughts about her under the rug for just that reason. Sure, he never thought before that a girlās eyes could literally SPARKLE like hers do. And sure, her freckles and her soft skin were somewhat alluring. But any bonehead could see that April OāNeil was beautiful.
He and April were friends. That meant more to Donnie than anything else. He could resist the initial butterflies of what he believed to be inevitable physical attraction, if it meant he could keep hanging out with her. So he dismissed the lurching in his stomach whenever she brushed past him, and dutifully ignored the way his heart palpitated when she smiled at him. And he blamed the stupid teenage hormones and being stuck in the sewers for his developmental years, as the reasons he was suddenly speechless around her.
But late one night, when Donnie pops by the kitchen to refill his mug with some motivation juice, heās caught off guard by April waiting next to an already-brewed pot of coffee.
He can tell she hasnāt been sleeping. Since Splinter forbade her from going topside, until Kirby was found, Donnie had her traipsing around the lair through his lab door when the others had all turned in.
She slides a mug over to him, prepared just the way he likes it. How could she not have the sugar-milk combination memorized by now, theyād spent so many late nights together gabbing about school or mutants or ninjutsu.
This moment, this unbearably easy, natural, and almost stupidly domestic moment, is when Donnie figures out heās toast.
From this point forward, he stops dismissing his feelings as simple physical attraction. He starts wondering what it would be like to have coffee with April every morning. What it would be like to hug her without worrying about crossing a line, comfort her and hold her and not have to rely on his stupid words to tell her itāll all be alright.
April OāNeil was beautiful. She was clever, with a biting humor and a tenacity thatās unparalleled to anyone else heās met before. But as he slides onto the stool next to her and they begin whispering about the next training session in hushed tones, Donnie realizes her heart is genuine, and undoubtedly good. And he wants to protect Aprilās heart, no matter the cost.
