Description
You weren't really sure what brought you here, you awkwardly stood outside of Raphaels door at 2:34am and lifted your hand to knock. You pause, what would you even say...the two of you had shared a moment...a moment of weakness, a moment of need, a moment of want...you weren't really sure what it was. You lower your hand, "I should just go back to bed" you think and you take a step away from the door. Suddenly it swings open, "You've been standing there for 20 minutes now, you know that?" An agitated Raph asked, "Get in here" he grips your arm roughly and pulls you into his room as he shuts the door behind you. "What is your problem?" He demands, "It's almost 3 in the morning, why aren't you in bed?" He growls in frustration, "You know, I don't get you" he crosses his arms as he tries to tame the fire burning behind his eyes, "You walk into my life as if you're walking into a candy store" he takes a step towards you, "You become my best friend, and then you makeout with me" his cheeks tint pink as he says the last part, "And then you just leave me!?!?! Now here you are at my door in the middle of the night, refusing to speak a word to me" he growls angrily, keeping his voice down since the others are sleeping,

"Maybe that's because you haven't given me a chance to speak" you reply narrowing your eyes at him

"Do you even care about me?" He continues not even acknowledging you, "Am I just some FREAK to you?" He snaps, his icy tone stabbing daggers into your heart. "I am aren't I...I don't need this, I don't need you, I don't want you!" He growls, he's so close you can feel his hot breath on your face, "I hate the way you're making me feel, just tell me what you want!" He throws his hands up, you flinch a little. That small action brings so much pain into his eyes and he goes from enraged to hurt in an instant. "Why do you flinch?" He says quietly, the malice gone from his tone, "Why do you do this? Why are you loving me one moment then scared the next, why can't you just tell me how you feel! You can't just pretend we didn't kiss...it doesn't work that way, you can't deny you didn't feel something!" His tone is dangerously deep and low, he's showing amazing control by not screaming right now. His cheeks tinted a deep red, his anger bubbling over, but his eyes stay hurt, "I hate what you're doing to me" he growls, "I can't stand it, it makes me crazy-"

"Youre such an idiot" you growl as you finally interrupt him, he's taken aback,

"Excuse me?" He narrows his eyes, "That's all you have to say? After all of that, that's all you've got in the insult department?" He chuckles, his face inches from yours as his eyes are consumed with rage again, "You never cared did you, you just felt bad because I'm a freak, you're right I am an idiot for thinking someone like you would-" you cut him...you couldn't listen to him anymore, you couldn't see the anger in his eyes anymore...you couldn't do this to him so you did the only thing you could think of to shut him up...

You kissed him...

As you pulled away you saw the confusion lace his surprised features, "You're an idiot because I really really care about you you hothead!" You snap in a whisper scream, "You think I don't care?" You pull him back into another kiss, "You're the dumbest turtle I've ever met!" You snap, "I am in love with you, and you dare to accuse me of not caring?!?" Your harsh words did not match your soft touch, "I love you..." You finally whisper in a broken tone, "I came here because I...I don't really know why...I...I just had to"

He looks at you then as if he's seeing you for the first time, without hesitation he pulls you into a deeply passionate kiss, "I'm so sorry" he breaths against your lips and kisses you again, "I'm so so sorry"
