(When ur kiss with them turns into a full-blown make-out until someone walks in) (Romantic, gn reader)
It was accidental kiss. But then, one second you’re just catching your breath — next, you’re pressed up against a wall or couch or the floor, and their hands are everywhere but respectful. And of course… someone always walks in.
Leonardo
The kiss deepens. It’s slow, burning, as if he was waiting too long for the perfect moment. The embers of a fire that’s been waiting forever to ignite. You’re gripping the edge of his plastron, pulling him closer. He’s got one hand on your waist, the other trembling on your cheek
And then — boom.
“…Leonardo.”
He freezes. Back stiff. Lips still ghosting over yours. You slowly look past his shoulder—
Splinter is standing in the doorway. Dead silent.
Leo practically teleports away from you.
“SENSEI—! I—I was just—”
“Yes. I saw.”
“It wasn’t— I mean, it was, but not—!”
Splinter sips his tea.
“Train harder. You’ll need more focus next time.”
And walks away.
You snort. Leo dies inside, not being able to look at you this time
Raphael
It’s intense. Hot. He’s got you against a wall, your hands tangled around his neck, his grip rough on your waist. He’s kissing you like it’s the last time he’ll ever get the chance. You can’t breathe — and you don’t want to.
And then, suddenly
“RAPH—?! What the actual—”
Raph turns his head, lips still slightly on your neck.
“What?! I’m busy!”
“I can see that! In the middle of the dojo?! Really?!”
“You walked in. That’s your fault.”
You hide your face. Donnie flees. Raph just smirks and goes “Now where were we?”
Donatello
It was supposed to be one kiss. Maybe two. Now you’re both sitting on his bed, your legs over his, his bo forgotten on the floor. You’re straddling him, and the way he’s kissing you —careful, desperate, like you might disappear —is enough to melt every inch of you.
Then—
“Dude—WHOA—SORRY—!”
Donnie gasps so hard he headbutts you by accident.
“OW—Donnie!”
“I DIDN’T MEAN TO—WAIT—GET OUT—!”
“I’M ALREADY GONE BRO GOOD LUCK!!”
You both collapse in laughter. Donnie’s face is red for days.
Michelangelo
You’re laughing, lying on the couch, and suddenly Mikey’s on top of you, kissing the air out of your lungs. It starts fun —then it gets heavy. Hands. Tongue. Teeth.
You moan his name once, and he loses it. He kisses you like he’s starving. And then—
“WHAT THE—”
“OH COME ON, NOT ON THE COUCH—!”
Mikey doesn’t even stop. He just yells:
“CLOSE THE DOOR OR JOIN IN, GUYS!”
“MIKEY—!”
He throws the nearest pillow at them
Been felling sad and wanted something super fluffy, so decided to write dis. And yeah, for everyone who requested, I’m so sorry, I didn’t have energy to do ur request, but I hope I’ll get better lately🙏 it might be a little short guys. So yeah go kiss ur turtle!!
can you please do tmnt 2012 hcs of how they are when they are crushing on somebody? Gn or fem reader is good with me! Sorry if it’s vague
Yes I can, I didn't know if you just wanted the turtles or April and Casey too, so I added them just in case. Requests are open!
Tmnt 2012 crush head cannons
Picture this, you're walking home with your new best friend, April O'Neil, you haven't had too many friends in school this year; whether it being a new school you've just moved to or some sort of drama pushing your old friends away, it doesn't seem to matter now. Now you have April!
Until you're cornered in an alley, dead end behind you, these weird, identical men in suits with high tech guns before you. You're sure you and April are dead... Until a group of mutant turtles — descended from what seems to be the sky — begin to attack them...
What a day!
But at least you have a few new friends now?
Leonardo
• He would 100% be such a big dork
• Seriously, every time he catches you even glancing at him, he will try — and fail, miserably if I can add — to aura farm and impress you
"You're going down to the ground Raph! Prepare to fai-"
^ he immediately got floored by Raph btw
• He'd try and fail to be nonchalant, bashful as all hell he is
• Obviously, he'd be able to be level headed when needed, he isn't that hormonal
• But unless there's an enemy right in front of him?
• He's fumbling, hard.
• And lowk? It's adorable
• Everybody knows he's got the hots for you, and if you don't then you must be legally blind, deaf, and mute because jeez Louise he is not covert at all!
• There is no way that he wouldn't try to indoctrinate you into becoming a space heroes fan too, he wouldn't say it but if you did show an interest in the show he'd genuinely be over the moon!
• Doesn't need to be as extreme as his is, just a small bit is enough.
• I think he'd be protective, but he'd try so hard to be subtle about it
• He would refuse to let you go on missions, check up on you after you've left the lair, want a full debrief on your day, etc
• He wouldn't necessarily push for any of these things (minus the first, he would NOT be pleased if you went, wouldn't be able to stop you, but wouldn't be happy)
• He would really like them though
• His brothers would tease the life out of him for this, since it isn't as harmful as the last one he had, they don't really have anything against it
• So they weaponise it as they see fit
• honestly this goes for all of them on this list
Donatello
• Another dork here!
• I don't particularly have much to say on Donnie as we've already got a very well detailed case of what he's like when he's got a crush!
• Very obsessive, hyper focused on you for the first few months he's crushing on you
• A little stalkery even
• You know how he celebrated when April gave him her number? Yeah, that times ten if you ever give him yours
• Genuinely was close to actually throwing a party over that
"Yes, yes, YES! I got her number, I got her number~!"
• You're obviously going to get plenty of gifts, some genuinely useful and well thought out
• But most being useless at best and creepy at worst
• He means best, it just so happens that he learnt NOTHING from April
• An absolute mess if you ever even hinted at a reciprocal feeling
• Blushing, stuttering, complete and utter system failure
• Can not handle you dude!
• On the sweeter side, he would truly always have your best interests at heart
• Even if he's occasionally blinded with his nature as a teenage boy to be ignorant and hold a level of emotional unawareness towards those around him
• He would a million percent try and minimise that gap if asked!
Raphael
• Honestly, the chilliest one in this list
• Again, We've seen how he acts, but just very briefly!
• So — on that note — I think that it would take a bit longer for him to feel any sort of romantic pull towards you
• As the show states his type is someone strong and incredibly capable
• And you weren't really all that when he met you
• Not being rude or anything, but you were just stood there shaking like a leaf!
• Now, of you want to catch a Raph? You'd need to show that you can give a beat down, whether that be on him, a villain, or just one of your opps
• That's when the real fun begins!
• He is, funnily enough, the most nonchalant of all his brothers
• Which is funny because he isn't!
• He is kinda like a temperamental puppy, he wants your attention but isn't willing to show it much
• Very occasional tsundere moments
"I'm not sitting here because I think you're cool or anything! It's just because this spot is comfier and has a better view of the TV!"
• He will be trying to impress you though, with a slightly higher success rate than Leo and Donnie!
• He is also quite protective of you, but he's never **over** protective, if he's got the hots for you then you will have proved to him that you're a capable fighter
• I also think that he'd be super soft with you, way softer than with anyone else
• His sarcasm and brash remarks are toned down by like 70% when he's talking to you!
• It's genuinely incredible
• In full honesty, I don't see the crush stage lasting very long for Raph, he's emotionally obvious and socially oblivious enough that I think after maybe a week to a month of crushing and he'd confess
• In the end he's not the worst to be crushed on by,
• very sweet puppy love type vibes!
Michelangelo
• Mikey, Mikey, Mikey
• Where do I start?
• Well first of all, if Raph was a puppy? Then Mikey is some alien because he legitimately trails after you and whined for attention
• You know that scene where Casey asks Mikey to hang out with him?
• He is constantly like that when he's around you
• Big, watery eyes filled with such immense hope and joy that it actually looks slightly painful.
• Also very, very flirty
• And forward
• The crush stage with Mikey lasts the least amount of time out of everyone
"Hey mamas! How about; you, me, this rooftop, and a whole load of pizza. Alone, tonight?"
^^while wiggling his eyebrow muscles the whole time
• He's the most emotionally intelligent of his brothers so I think this would manifest in him trying to do impressive romantic things to make you like him back
• It's rate of working is..... Debatable
• One thing I can imagine him doing is trying to get a big bouquet of roses!
• However he is a mutant turtle living in the sewers so he only managed to find some withered up tulip....
• And he spilled mutagen on it.....
• And he spoke about you so much to the tulip it got jealous and went to try and kill you.....
• Yeah, so, total turtle luck with this guy's romance
• Also, unless you have watched him prepare and complete each step;
• DO NOT EAT HIS COOKING!
• This rule should just be universal, even if he likes you
• his cooking isn't magically just going to suddenly cook well!
• What a joke
• I think that's about it with Mikey,
• Just very sickly sweet, fun, puppy love. If a puppy has access to ninja weaponry and years of professional ninja training.
April
• So, so, sorry for throwing you into this lifestyle
• Especially without any sort of warning
• You seem to like it, but she isn't sure if you really grasp how serious this all is..
• She'll let you play about for now
• At least she can see you even more often!
• I do think she'd be extra anxious about liking you because of Donnie's whole thing for her
• I think that if she had a serious sit down talk with him, he would back off a bit
• Especially if she told him she likes you~~~
• He'd deffo be hurt, but this isn't his head cannon section so I'm not going into anymore detail
• Once that obstacle was out of the way...
• She's also a dork
• She rivals Leo with her dorkiness
• She is so nervous she starts whipping out white people phrases
• One time Mikey asked her to get more pizza, you agreed and she responded with an awkward chuckle, a strained smile — blush dusting her cheeks, chin, and forehead a bright red;
"Okie dokie artichokie! I'll go get those in!"
• Raph still makes fun of her for it
• She is also protective of you, of she has her psychic powers when she falls for you then she definitely keeps an eye and ear out for you at school.
• Any attempts to spread rumours, bully, backchat, or any other petty teenage bullshit is met with a very angry April O'Neill
• And on the streets as well, hanging out or tagging along on patrol, she makes sure any large or dangerous foe's are taken out before they even glance in your direction!
• She also helps you study, also in turn, you help her study!
• It's a win-win situation!
• She hangs out with her crush, you get good grades and vice-versa
• She would also give little romantic gifts, leave a rose or two — maybe some chocolate, or a bag of sweets — in your locker with a note from a 'mysterious admirer'
• You both know it's her, but it's fun, why ruin it with words?
• I think April's crush stage would last the longest, she is anxious and awkward about moving into anything more serious!
• So she procrastinates.
• I think she'd have one of those dramatic confessions in a life or death situation of which is leaning towards the latter!
• She'd be a sick girlfriend though!
Casey
• Casey's an interesting one
• To me he reads as being quite a bitch-less player
• Meaning, he gets no huzz but he always seems to have a new crush every two weeks
• So you'd have to be pretty interesting for Casey to like you for more than that two weeks period
• Keep that in mind!
• But I think he would be infuriating for the first little while!
• Always acting like gods gift to mankind, like you should be grateful for him liking you
"Yeah, I know babe! I rock! No need to tell me."
• Like you should practically grovel and praise him for the bare minimum of like, remembering stuff or buying flowers from Walmart!
^^ I'm not American so I'm guessing that Walmart sells flowers, if they don't then tell me, I'll fix it!
• Eventually, though, his tone shifts and he becomes slightly softer with them, and you!
• He becomes more grateful for YOU!
• A shock to the system for sure!
• He is still creepy and overbearing, that won't change unless you beat it out of him
• But he gets softer around the edges, he notices more, is more outwardly caring
• Probably the second longest crush stage because when Casey genuinely likes you? He doesn't want to rush it and ruin it
please could you write about the 2012 boys x a reader WHO THINKS THEY'RE SO CUTE AND LOVES RUBBING THEIR CHEEKS AND PETTING THEM? seriously they look like green gummy balls, i want to eat their heads and chew them forever 🙏
tmmt 2012 x gn reader
Leo blushed and tried to ignore you. Couldn’t you see he was busy watching a TV show? You threw yourself over his lap, staring up at him with heart eyes. Your hands pet down over his arms down to his hands.
You were so distracting… He forced his gaze onto the screen even when you traced over his plastron. He couldn’t let you win.
“Leo…” You whined for his attention, wanting to look at his pretty eyes. “Look at me, please?”
“You’re so cute.”
“Will ya stop it?!” Raph growled out as you tugged on his cheeks. He did nothing more than gently smack your hands away each time you went to grab him, knowing if he put any more effort into his movements, it would hurt you. “You’re so annoyin’.”
Yet, despite his words, he leaned into your one hand that stroked the sharp angle of his cheek, eyes fluttering shut somehow in angry manner. You giggled at him and he shot you a halfhearted glare.
Donnie tries to act like he doesn’t crave your affection, but in reality, it’s all he can ever think about. When he’s working on the shellraiser, he thinks of your hands on his cheeks and on his neck. He thinks of you pressing kisses to his face while he works. He’s a lovesick fool.
He thinks about it so much that he ends up doing it to you when you next see each other. He cups your face and looks down at you, all affectionate. It fries your brain immediately.
Mikey nuzzled into your hands, happily staring up at you. He loved it when you got affectionate like this. He flopped on top of you, enjoying the feeling of your fingers tracing his face. He had even taken off his mask to give you more access.
“Don’t stop!” He’ll whine when you pull your hands away, grabbing your wrists and giving you his wide-teary eyed stare that always gets him what he wants. Even when your arms grow tired, you keep it up.
Hiii <𝟑 .ᐟ can you write 2012!TMNT boys with a fem!reader who is like MaoMao from the Apothecary Diaries?
If you don’t know MaoMao is a girl who is very into science (more specifically chemistry,toxins,and poisons) has a dead-pan personality,VERY sarcastic,and is like SUPER detective smart.
(It’s okay if you can’t though) 𖾕𖾝꙼ᩚ𛲕𖾟
2012 TMNT x MaoMao like!Reader Headcannons
Leonardo
At first, Leo is… concerned. Not because you’re dangerous, but because you treat danger like a hobby.
“You drank it,” he says slowly.
You shrug, setting the small vial down. “It’s diluted.”
“…It was glowing.”
“Yeah, that’s how I knew it was interesting.”
Leonardo pinches the bridge of his nose like he’s already developing a migraine. But here’s the thing, he respects you. Deeply. You’re observant and calculated. You notice patterns he misses. While he’s strategizing battle formations, you’re casually pointing out:
“By the way, that guy has nerve damage in his left arm. If you hit him there, he’ll drop his weapon.”
“…Noted.”
You become his unofficial 'intel analyst.'
He’ll come to you like:
“Can you analyze this substance?”
And you’re already halfway through it, muttering,
“It’s a synthetic toxin. Sloppy work. I could make something better.”
“…Please don’t.”
You glance at him. “No promises.”
He trusts you. But he also absolutely watches you like you’re one bad day away from licking something radioactive.
Donatello
You two are insufferable together. In the best way. Donnie finally meets someone who matches his intelligence and instead of being thrilled, he’s like:
“…Why are you heating that chemical over an open flame?”
You don’t look up. “Because I want to see what happens.”
“That’s not a method, that’s chaos.”
“It’s called curiosity, an experiment if you will.”
“It’s called BAD SCIENCE.”
You side-eye him. “You built a dimensional portal in a sewer.”
“…That’s different.”
“It’s really not.”
But then you start actually working together. You handle toxins, compounds, biology. He handles tech, engineering, machines. It becomes this terrifying duo energy. April walks in once to see both of you hunched over a table, whispering intensely.
“…Should I be worried?”
Donnie “No.”
You: “Yes.”
You also casually drop things like:
“I made a poison that mimics natural heart failure.”
Donnie freezes.
“…Why?”
You shrug. “Bored.”
He is both horrified and impressed. He also likes how blunt you are. No guessing. No games.
Just:
“That idea is inefficient.”
“…Oh.”
“…But fixable.”
And suddenly he’s smiling again.
Raphael
Raph thinks you’re weird. But not like bad weird.
“You’re freaky.”
You’re crouched over something questionable.
“It’s venom,” you say.
“…From what?”
You glance up. “Do you want the long answer or the interesting answer?”
“…Those should be the same answer.”
“They’re not.”
He squints. “…I don’t like that.”
But here’s where it shifts, you’re fearless. Not in a loud, reckless way like him, and he doesn't call you that to mock you like he does Leo. You’ll walk into a situation, observe everything, and go:
“There are three threats. The one behind you is the most dangerous.”
Raph turns, immediately throws a punch, you were right.
“…Huh.”
You shrug. “Pattern recognition.”
He starts trusting your instincts more than his temper. And that’s saying a lot. Also, you don’t react to his anger the way others do.
He snaps once—
“Why do you even mess with that stuff?!”
You blink. “Because it’s useful.”
“…You’re not scared?”
“Of chemicals? No.”
“…Of me?”
You look at him, completely neutral.
“No.”
And that? That hits him harder than anything. You’re one of the only people who doesn’t flinch around him. And yeah, he’d absolutely wreck anyone who messes with you.
Even if you insist,
“I could poison them.”
“…Yeah, well, I could punch them and it's faster.”
Michelangelo
Mikey is OBSESSED with you. Like you are literally his best friend forever and you're not going anywhere.
“YOU’RE LIKE A MAD SCIENTIST NINJA GIRL.”
“I’m neither a ninja nor mad.”
“You drank poison yesterday.”
“It was controlled.”
“That’s not comforting :(”
He follows you around constantly. You’re working quietly and suddenly:
“What happens if I drink that?”
You don’t even look up. “You’ll throw up.”
“…Worth it?”
“No.”
“…Okay.”
But he’s also weirdly good at keeping up with you.
You’ll mutter something like,
“This compound reacts faster under heat-”
And Mikey’s already handing you what you need. He doesn’t always understand what you’re doing, but he supports the chaos. Also, he’s one of the few who makes you laugh. Not loudly. But a small, unexpected sound. And he FREEZES.
Leo’s type is someone calm, patient, and emotionally steady.
He carries so much pressure as the leader, so he would be drawn to someone who makes him feel like he can finally breathe. He likes someone who supports his goals but also reminds him that he does not have to be perfect all the time. A partner who is kind, mature, and understanding would mean a lot to him.
He would love someone who listens to him talk about training, missions, or even Space Heroes, even if they tease him a little for being dramatic about it. He likes someone who respects responsibility but also helps him loosen up. Deep down, Leo needs a partner who sees the boy underneath the leader.
His ideal partner would be someone who says, “You can rest now,” and actually makes him believe it.
Raph
Raph’s type is someone honest, loyal, and not easily intimidated.
He acts tough, but he would fall hard for someone who can handle his attitude without taking it too personally. He needs someone who understands that his anger usually comes from fear, worry, or wanting to protect the people he loves. A partner who is patient with him but still calls him out when he is being unfair would really earn his respect.
He would like someone with a little fire in them, someone who can banter back and make him smirk. But he also needs someone gentle enough to notice when he is hiding hurt behind sarcasm. Bonus points if they love animals, because his soft spot for Spike/Slash says a lot about him.
Raph’s ideal partner is someone who makes him feel safe enough to be soft without making a big deal out of it.
Donnie
Donnie’s type is someone curious, thoughtful, and emotionally patient.
He would be drawn to someone who actually listens when he rambles about science, inventions, or random facts. He does not need them to understand everything, but he would love someone who asks questions and makes him feel appreciated. A partner who respects his intelligence but also reminds him to take breaks would be perfect for him.
Donnie also needs someone who is clear with their feelings. He can overthink a lot, especially when it comes to romance, so he would do well with someone kind and honest. He would love a partner who supports his inventions but also reminds him that he is loved for who he is, not just what he can create.
His ideal partner would be someone who makes his brain quiet down and his heart feel understood.
Mikey
Mikey’s type is someone fun, affectionate, and accepting.
He would love someone who laughs at his jokes, joins in on his silly ideas, and does not make him feel stupid for being playful. Mikey has a big heart, so he would be drawn to someone warm and sweet who lets him be himself completely. He needs a partner who sees that behind all the jokes, he is actually very caring and emotionally aware.
He would love someone creative, spontaneous, and a little chaotic in the best way. Movie nights, pizza dates, random dancing, and playful teasing would be his favorite things. But he also needs someone who comforts him when he feels left out or underestimated.
Mikey’s ideal partner is someone who makes life feel brighter and never makes him feel like he has to become “less Mikey” to be loved.
—————————————————————————
Hii yall I just wanted to send this one out for yall a few more are coming out 🙂↕️
In an argument, he says something so harmful, you go non verbal
٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥◎٥
Leo
You and Leo were arguing because you protested one of his orders on a mission
It was a recon mission, just get info and get out
But when the foot came in, you thought it'd be a great opportunity to weaken their ranks
Leo on the other hand, thought you should all go back to the lair
It was the first time you two had fought this much, and in public
When you got back to the lair, you and Leo continued fighting, Leo was always calm during your fights, talking to you in a condescending tone, he finally said "I can't argue with you, you're acting like a child. We can talk about it later when you're done being immature."
It hurt
But it was also so fucking angering
You're partners. You're supposed to be equals, and you certainly weren't one of his brothers he could talk to like that.
Your heart was pounding out of your chest, and by the look of Leo's face, he knew he fucked up.
Even his brothers were surprised, and immediately went to your side
You didn't pay attention to them though, not answering any of their questions, not even looking at them
You just started walking out of the lair, trying to hold back your tears of both anger and hurt.
You stayed in your home for a week
Leo wanted to go and apologize, but Master Splinter advised him to leave you alone
And April said the same, to give you time
So he did
But a week later, without seeing or talking to you, he just couldn't hold it in- the guilt was eating him alive.
And that's how he found himself in front of your window
Holding your favorite flowers and snacks
Trying to convince himself to knock on it, yet freezing each time he was about to do so
Only to accidentally bump into it
The window creaked open a little bit
"..."
"uhm.... Can... Can I come in?"
You silently opened the window more, moving to the side to give him space
Leo cleared his throat,
"uhm.. look... I'm- I'm really sorry, I was upset and stressed and- and I didn't mean anything I said, you- you didn't deserve that, you're my s/o, not my brother, and I'm your boyfriend, not your leader, and- well, what I'm trying to say is I'm really sorry for what I did and- you obviously don't have to forgive me, I- I understand"
Proceeded by the most shameful, guilty, kicked puppy eyes look ever, one that was almost better than Mikey's.
You just stared at him, your face an unintentional (or intentional) scowl as your eyes glared him down, your lips pulled down into a frown as you just stared at him
Leo panics at the silence, usually you were quick to say something or make a face at his sappiness, but right now you were utterly silent
When your tears finally begin to flow down your cheeks, that's when Leo decides to step in fully, wrapping his arms around you as he pulled you towards your bed, his cold, scaly hands rubbing up and down your arms as his face was a mixture of panic and regret.
Once you've calmed down, you both sat in silence for a long time before you were finally able to get a few words out, though they were barely a whisper "You made me feel small, Leo" you waited another long moment to get more energy to speak more "You acted like- like I was being irrational, and that's...that's not ok. We're supposed to be equals, Leo, partners. You can't just...chalk up my feelings to me being too emotional or immature"
Leo stayed silent as well for a while, your words bouncing around in his head before he sighed quietly, his head doing a small nod* "I know, and...I'm sorry. I think...I'm so used to having to deal with my brother's, it comes out the wrong way with you" he murmured before holding you tighter "but I'll do better"

Is This a Date?
2012!Mikey x Reader
Sorry I’ve been dead for so long. But now I’m back! Maybe. And I’m trying to get through all these unanswered asks to remove my guilty conscience.
Figured I may as well start strong with a Mikey fic, this boy is one of my absolute favourites but I really don’t give him enough love. Well, enjoy!
Edit: I totally headcanon that if Mikey had a regular human partner he wouldn’t tell them the full extent of the kraang’s plans because he wouldn’t want them to be as stressed about the end of the world as he is.
Mikey whooped through the lair, cheering and jumping around. He quickly jumped on the couch causing Leo to drop his slice of pizza.
“Mikey!”
“What’s got you so excited?” Raph huffed with his arms crossed.
“Oh nothing.” Mikey casually spoke before running over and getting Raph’s face. “Just that it’s Friday!”
Mikey kept dancing around the lair while Raph continued to scoff. “Uh huh. And?”
Donnie stepped out of his lab, goggles perched atop his head as he rubbed his eyes. “He gets to see y/n.”
“Oh.” Raph muttered before a wide smirk grew on his face. “Ohh!” So that’s where you’ve been sneaking off to, to hang with you girlfriend.”
Mikey stopped dead in his tracks and sighed, head rolled back so far it was practically touching his shell. “Dude I wish she was my girlfriend! But so long as our little friend-outs keep going the way they’re going I think we’ll get there eventually.”
“Friend-outs?” Leo asked quizzically from his spot on the couch, the previous slice of pizza being long forgotten.
“Yeah! Like hangouts but specifically for friends.” Mikey proudly stated.
“That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.” Donnie groaned. “Just call them what I call me and April’s hangouts.”
“And that is?” Raph hesitantly asked, terrified of his reply.
“A late night one-sided romantic non-explicit almost but not quite date.”
“Yeah I’m good bro.” Mikey frowned, almost put off by his brother’s confidence.
“Look, hangout or friend-out or whatever you wanna call it.” Leo jumped up and stepped forward. “Just make sure you’re home in time before Sensei notices.”
“Notices what?” The aforementioned rat-man stepped into the room with a curious tone.
“Uh nothing Sensei.” Mikey cringed, hoping to god none of his brothers would rat him out. Heh rat.
“Mikey’s going on a date with his girlfriend!” Raph announced, causing Mikey’s face to go bright pink.
“Number 1, not my girlfriend; number 2, not a date and number 3, WHAT THE HELL DUDE!” Mikey screeched in Raph’s face before he was abruptly pulled back by Splinter’s amused chuckle.
“It is alright Michelangelo I had a feeling you were seeing someone given how much you’ve tried to sneak out in recent times.” Mikey’s face fell.
“Oh boy, so you noticed too huh?” He gave a weak smile preying for a gentle scolding.
“I have. But not to worry, I see no ill intent here so I do not have a problem with it.”
“Wait seriously?” Mikey’s eyes widened in suprise.
“Seriously.” Splinter nodded. “But do not do anything foolish and for the last time, stop revealing yourselves to humans!”
“U huh, yep, you got it Sensei!” Mikey smiled cheerfully, jumping up and down with joy.
“Wait, you’re actually letting him go?” Raph asked in astonishment.
“The last time I snuck out you all yelled at me!” Leo protested.
“That is because you were meeting with a member of the foot.” Splinter calmly spoke back.
Donnie snickered. “He got you there.”
“But how do you know Mikey isn’t doing the same thing?” The blue boy questioned once more.
“Uh my girl is way too good to be hanging around those foot creeps. And look at me Leo.” He pulled the puppy eyes. “Would these eyes lie to you?”
Raph spoke before Leo could even reply. “You know what, I’m just gonna walk away on this one. Have a great night Mikey.” He raised his arms in mock defeat and headed off to his room.
“Thanks Raph! Woah, never thought I’d say that.” Mikey gave a cheesy smile and ran out before he was thrown any more questions. “I’ll be back soon, save me some pizza!”
The remaining family members just shook their heads and sighed as his figure disappeared into the dark.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The night started off perfectly. Mikey jumped across the New York City skyline till he eventually reached y/n’s apartment. Clinging onto the windowsill from the apartment above, he hung upside down and knocked on her window.
When y/n finally opened her window it took everything in Mikey to not fall down from how gorgeous she was. Is this girl even real?
Y/n smiled shyly, cheeks tinted red. “Stop you’re making me blush.” She joked. Dammit, he totally said that last part out loud didn’t he. Never mind.
“What’s hanging sweet cheeks?” He goofed as she leaned out to talk to him.
“Only you.” She smiled, leaning out further to try and boop his nose. Unfortunately her lack of balance betrayed her and she quickly fell out only to be thankfully caught by the hands of her turtle saviour.
“And you. Mikey remarked as he kept her dangling for a second. He began swinging back and forth a little before using the motion to pull his body up and grab y/n properly.
“Thank you for that, genuinely thought I was about to dieeeee!” Y/n’s relief was cut extremely short as Mikey dropped off the edge of the windowsill with her. She snapped her eyes shut, only opening them once she heard a thud and figured they safely landed.
Sure enough. Mikey had easily gotten onto the neighbouring building without a scratch on either of them.
“Alright, no more rooftops for now. How about a walk?” Y/n suggested.
“You had me at rooftops.” Mikey smiled gleefully.
“Wait no I meant-“ Mikey began to prepare to jump and y/n noticed immediately. “Mikey no no no no no oh my gosh please no ahhhhh!”
He leaped and grabbed onto the side of another apartment block before kicking off and landing swiftly on the ground. “I’m just messing with you sugar, don’t worry.”
Y/n heaved and sighed, leaning against Mikey as he finally put her down. “Never again you hear me. From now on we start by meeting up on the ground.
“Whatever you say honey.” He smiled and stepped in front of her, hands behind his back with an innocent little smile on his face.
“Are you ever going to stop with the pet names?” She questioned, walking forwards and out of the alley they landed in.
“Only if you want me to.” Mikey followed. Y/n looked away with a small smile, not saying anything. Mikey wouldn’t admit it but his face made the same expression as he glanced away from her too.
“So, how has the ninjaing been going?” Y/n wondered. “Got any new leads, any shocking discoveries, do I finally get meet your dad?”
“Uh the kraang are doing some super evil stuff, I made friends with an alligator his name’s Leatherhead by the way and how bout we meet at my place next time, then you can see the whole lair!” He excitedly spoke.
“That sounds awesome!” Y/n agreed. “Not the evil kraang part but Leatherhead sounds cool and I’d love to visit your home!”
“So what’s been up with you?” Mikey asked, arms now relaxed behind his head.
“Ugh nothing that exciting. Passed my math test, hung out with a couple of friends after school and I learnt how to make simple jewellery.” She perked up.
“What? That’s so cool!” Mikey shouted, hyping her up like there was no tomorrow.
“Oh also.” He stopped in his tracks as y/n halted to pull something out of her pocket. “I made you this.” She smiled brightly holding up a small pink beaded bracelet.
“Aww! No one’s ever gotten me something like this before.” Mikey’s eyes began to water as he accepted the gift, holding it like the most delicate thing in the world before slipping it on with care.
“Not just that, check it out.” Y/n smiled, holding up her wrist to reveal her own orange bracelet. “No way!” Mikey cheered as he bent down to inspect hers.
“I know we don’t get to see each other a lot and I’m constantly reminded of the fact that your world is terribly life risky and dangerous so this can be like a little bond between us. Together and apart.” She smiled up at him, holding out her fist for a little bump which he eagerly returned.
“How are you so perfect?” Mikey sighed.
Y/n covered her mouth to hide her smile, cheeks glowing, before dropping it to speak. “I dunno, how are you so amazing?”
Mikey chuckled. “Well now you’ve given me a gift, it’s only right I give you one in return.”
“Mikey you don’t need to do that.” Y/n smiled.
“Uh uh! I insist.” He bowed slightly, holding his hand for her to take. “Well, what are you waiting for?”
“You’re not gonna throw me onto the rooftop are you?” She cautiously asked.
“I’m totally gonna throw you onto the rooftop.” Mikey grinned.
Y/n sighed, tilting her head to the side. “Fine.” She relented, placing her hand in Mikey’s. The second her hand touched his she was thrown onto his back as he jumped up onto the roof of the nearest building and began to parkour.
“We’re never gonna hang out just on the ground, are we?” Y/n leaned over his shoulder with an amused grin.
“Nope, never. Better get use to it sweetie pie cos this guy belongs in the sky.” He smiled proudly. Y/n leaned on his shell, head tilted in amusement as she watched his beaming face. She may as well have hearts for eyes.
“Ooh wait stop!” Y/n called out, getting Mikey to screech to a stop. “Look!” She happily pointed to a seemingly empty intersection where a man stood on the sidewalk with a cart. Bags of cotton candy hung from the top, a little odd instead of just doing it with the machine but ok.
“What is that?” Mikey asked as he let her slide off his back.
“It’s cotton candy!” Y/n cheered as he gave her the most confused expression of all time. “You don’t know what cotton candy is?” Y/n gasped, astounded that someone like Mikey of all people hadn’t experienced this delight before.
“What exactly is it anyway?” He asked, peering at the man over y/n’s shoulder.
“It’s basically just fluffed up sugar with a little colour. Disgustingly unhealthy but deliciously good.”
“That sounds awesome!” Mikey screamed forcing y/n to cover his mouth with her hand in fear they’d be spotted.
“I’ll go grab us some, you wait here alright?” She patted his shoulder.
Mikey‘s smile dropped.
“Aww but why can’t I come with you?”
“You really think a street vendor will react well to seeing a giant turtle guy in the middle of the night?” Y/n questioned, arms crossed.
“No.” He pouted. “But I’ll be here if anything goes wrong. I don’t know what it is but that guy gives me the heebie-jeebies.”
“I’ll be safe, I promise.” Y/n smiled assuringly.
“Alright, I trust you.” He gave her a half anxious smile as she headed over to the building’s fire escape.
Mikey watched, perched on the rooftop, as y/n walked over to talk to the vendor.
“They’re a dollar a piece.” He spoke in a raspy tone making her internally cringe.
“Great! I’ll get 2.” He gave an airy chuckle, snatching two bags and handing them to her as she laid out the cash.
“You got a boyfriend to share that with?” He smiled. Creepy y/n thought as he began walking out from around the cart. Mikey frowned and feircly gripped his nunchucks, ready to attack.
“I mean sort of. A friend but still, y’know.” Y/n jokingly chuckled though her smile was clearly strained as she took a step back.
“No I don’t know.” The man smiled more, following her lead by taking a step forward. “Why don’t you explain it to me?”
Y/n took another careful step back, voice caught in her throat. Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh. She closed her eyes tight, waiting for the man to approach her more until-
CLANG!
She opened one eye followed hesitantly by the other as she stared at the unconscious man on the floor in shock. She looked up and saw Mikey standing tall with his nunchucks in hand.
“Mikey…” She began. He puffed out his chest with pride expecting a thank you. Maybe a hug or a kiss or- “What did you do!?”
“Nothing!” He defended. “Just taking out the trash.”
“Is he- oh my gosh is he still breathing!?” Y/n’s panic grew more and more but she wasn’t willing to touch the body to check.
“I dunno probably.” Mikey shrugged. “I already called the guys, they’ll be here to take him to the feds or whatever don’t, worry about it.”
“Don’t worry about it?” She chuckled nervously. “Don’t worry about it!? Mikey there’s an half dead man lying at my feet and you want me to not worry about it!?”
“Here.” He snatched the two bags of cotton candy from her hands, handing one back to her. “Just take this, we’ll head back up to the rooftops and never think about this creepo ever again.” Y/n looked down at her bag of fairy floss with uncertainty before meeting his eyes again and smiling.
“Fine you win, to the rooftops we go!” She cheered. Mikey happily scooped her up in his arms making her squeal slightly as he jumped up onto the roof of a nearby building.
“You seriously gotta start warning me before doing that.” Y/n held her head and smiled at him in a daze.
“But where’s the fun in that?” He retorted making her give out a small giggle.
“Have I ever told you you’re the best?” She sighed. “Noooo.” Mikey drawled out with a sneaky smile. “Well you’re totally the best!” She laughed and jumped into giving him a hug. Mikey sighed and smiled, resisting the urge to nuzzle into her neck.
Their peace didn’t last long though as his chaotic personality caught up to him and he quickly came up with another idea. “Oh! I have this awesome place to show you, follow me!” Technically there wasn’t really any following involved as he scooped the poor girl up into his arms once more and began leaping over rooftops.
Every jump had y/n squealing and clutching onto him more. Partially out of fear and partially out of excitement. At one point he took a big leap and let her go, making her scream as she tumble towards the next building before he swiftly caught her in his arms again.
“Gotcha.” He playfully teased while the girl looked up at him in disbelief. “You’re insane.” She muttered, eyes wide in shock.
Mikey let out his own set of giggles and tossed her in the air a little (totally not showing off at that point) and caught her once more. “Don’t you know it!” He announced with joy before going back on route.
The skyline seemed to sweep by as each building passed. If the lack of stars in the sky was disappointing then the city lights certainly made up for it.
The pair had fallen into silence but the rush of the wind and the jumps and the leaps kept up the energy. It did give y/n some time to think, going over the nights events. As she pulled herself closer to Mikey she began to get a boldness she’d never really felt any other times they’d met up. Maybe it was stupid or maybe it was fate who knows but in that moment y/n made a choice.
They were nearing the spot Mikey had in mind and it was just as he took his finale leap that y/n made up her mind. Everything seemed to slow down as the two were briefly suspended mid-air. Y/n pulled back slightly and they locked eyes making a second feel like eternity. It was in that moment y/n chose to make her move. She quickly leaned in, eyes closed and heart pounding, and gave Mikey a small peck to the lips.
He landed smoothly, sliding back a little on the concrete. At that point y/n had already pulled back leaving the two staring at each other in shock.
“I- uhh.” Mikey was at a loss for words because ain’t no way that just happened!
Y/n swiftly leaped out of his arms and looked away. “So, this is the place you wanted to show me?” She asked, clearly trying to shift the focus.
“Uh yeah! Yeah. This is the place. Best sightseeing spot in all of NYC baby.”
The two plopped down next to each other, feet dangling over the edge of the rooftop. Jeez why so many roofs? Oh right, turtle ninja.
Y/n dipped her hand into the bag of sugar she only just remembered she had, stuffing her face while gazing out at the vast city
“Ifs beautiful.” She smiled.
“Yeah.” Mikey breathed, cheeks still burning from that last second kiss.
“So uh.” He awkwardly smiled and glanced her way. “Wanna give me another kiss or?”
“Mikey!” Y/n shoved her face in her hands out of embarrassment. “Sorry, I don’t even know why I did it. It was stupid really just don’t worry about it, won’t happen again I swear I-“ She was quickly cut off as Mikey pulled her in for another kiss. He reeled back slightly and gave her a dopey smile.
“I don’t mind, you can kiss me all you want.” Y/n giggled from his little flirt and pushed his face away before instantly looking back again to meet his gaze.
“You’re ridiculously amazing you know that?” She smiled.
“Same goes for you honey bun.” He leaned forward with his head in his hands. “We should keeping meeting up like this.”
“How’s Sunday at 10?” Y/n suggested.
“Make it Saturday and you got yourself a deal.” He grinned.
“Deal! It’s a date!” Y/n smiled but her joy faltered into curiosity as a thought crossed her mind. “Wait, was this a date?”
“I don’t know.” Mikey sat up and began to think. “Was it?”
“Have our other hangouts been dates?” Y/n spoke again. The two locked eyes.
“Oh my cheese.” Mikey gasped causing the two to bust into laughter.
“So wait!” Y/n giggled, tears practically brimming in the corners of her eyes. “Have we just been going out this entire time and neither of us noticed?”
“I guess.” Mikey laughed with a stunned expression. “Man, we should’ve kissed way sooner then.”
Y/n wrapped her arms around his neck, shoving her face into his chest as the two locked eyes again.
“Well given we’ve already been on soo many dates.” She held back a laugh. “I must ask, Michelangelo, would you do me the honour of becoming my official boyfriend?”
Mikey was practically beaming with joy. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in closer.
“Why of course, m’lady, there’s nothing I’d want more.”
The two smiled giddily and rested their foreheads against each other, briefly nuzzling their noses together before pulling back once more.
“As much as I’m feeling the energy right now, you should probably take me home before my parents completely freak out.” Y/n smiled meekly.
“Good call.” Mikey stood and picked her up again, this time twirling her around before fulling securing her in his arms. “Don’t want your parents hating me before we even get a chance to meet.”
“Oh my gosh Mikey!” Y/n laughed before resting her head back against his plastron.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally back home, y/n leaned through the window of her bedroom to talk to Mikey who was very delicately perched on the windowsill.
“You know, if we really have been going on dates this whole time I gotta say, no complaints.” Y/n sighed, smiling at her now boyfriend as he returned her grin.
“Me neither. I love-“ He was suddenly cut off by a buzz and quickly snatched his T-phone, opening up the call without a second thought.
“Mikey, where the hell are you!? We need you right now!” Raph screamed on the other end forcing Mikey to stretch the phone away from his ear.
“Relax dude I’m hanging with my girlfriend.” He replied sassily.
“Wha girlfriend!? Mikey right now is not the time for jokes!” Raph screamed back.
“I’m not joking dude I think you guys gave me like a good omen or something cos now I got a smart, hot, funny lady in front of me who’s waiting for me to kiss her goodnight!” He sent y/n a little wink in the middle of his speech making her heart soar.
“Ain’t no way.” Raph muttered on the other end. “I can’t believe this. Well, just get here asap alright? We’re getting pummeled out here!”
“Will do!” Mikey cheered before closing the call and tucking his phone away.
“So, how about that goodnight kiss?” Y/n smiled, head in her hands as her fingers tapped her cheek. “I’m waiting.”
Mikey gave a goofy smile and slowly leaned in only to get quickly pulled in by the top of his plastron. Y/n broke the kiss a moment too soon and gave him a half stern look.
“I’ll see you tomorrow. Now go save the city!”
“Yes ma’am!” He smiled brightly. “Duty calls!” He jumped down from the windowsill as y/n leaned over to spot him. She watched as he ran away into the night but not before turning back and blowing her a quick kiss.
Hope you liked it. Have an amazing day/night wherever you are!✨
