RAPH'S POV
It's been a week since I saw her. It left a mark on me. It was the first time I fell in love, and I don't think I'll forget it any time soon. Well, my brothers say it's love. I don't know, she just gave me this feeling in my stomach, I felt dizzy and like I wanted to kiss or hug her. I just couldn't help but want her to stay when she had to leave. Her name was Y/N, she was amazing and pretty! God, that sounds so weird coming out of my head...
I really hate to think about it, but my brothers might be right. I don't want to be in love though! I don't want to become like Leo, a weird simp who swoons over a girl. Just the thought of me being soft and swooning over a girl just makes me shiver. But at the same time, I want to be in love. I want to swoon and go soft over a girl. What am I saying? Who would date a freak like me, let alone love me?
Maybe she would. I really don't want to be rejected the first time I fall for someone. But I can't say I blame her, I mean, I'm a mutant turtle! It sounds weird to say 'Yeah, I'm dating a human-sized mutant turtle who knows ninjitsu!'. The worst part is, she goes to my school! So, if she does say no, I'm going to have to see her face every day, that's awkward! But if she does say yes, I'm also going to have to see her face every day, that may be awkward too!
I'll just have to find out for myself her answer.
I left the sewers to Y/N's house. I got nervous when I found myself standing outside her front door. I thought about what I wanted to say and how I wanted to say it to her while walking over here. I closed my eyes shut and tried to ring the doorbell but pushed the doorknob because my eyes were shut, I opened my eyes and actually rang the doorbell.
"Y/N can you get the door?" I heard Y/N's mom yell from inside. After a minute, Y/N answered the door and smiled at me. I felt my face heat up, I shook my head and cleared my throat, beginning to speak.
"Y/N, I've been thinking about you for a while now and... I wanted to know if you maybe wanted to go out sometime. If you say no, it's fine. I mean, I am a mutant turtle." I looked down a bit in shame until I heard a giggle coming from Y/N's mouth. I looked up and faced her. She smiled big, her face also red.
"Raph, were you trying to ask me out?" She asked, still smiling and giggling. I thought she rejected me, so I turned around and began to walk away until I felt a hand on mine. I turned around to see Y/N grabbing my hand.
"I never said no!" She spoke, smiling softly. I blushed hard, making her laugh.
"So... It's a yes?" I asked her, she smiled big and nodded.
"Of course, Raph! I've been feeling the same way about you for a while now. I didn't think you'd like me back." She smiled, hugging me. I felt my heart stop for a second before unconsciously hugging her back. I had a goofy smile spreading from ear to ear. We pulled away.
"I feel like I finally understand Leo." I spoke, chuckling a bit. I heard Y/N mom call her name. Y/N looked back at her house then at me. She kissed my cheek and pulled away. Letting go of my hands and walking back into her house, waving goodbye as she closed the door.
Oh my God, that just happened!
Y/N'S POV
I've like Raph for a while, but I didn't think he'd like me back. I mean, he's probably got girls all over him because of how strong he is. But I like him not just for his looks, but his personality. He's so sweet towards me, he tried to be tough but miserably fails, which I love, then he gets all red. I want to think that he likes me back, but I didn't want to get my hopes up. What if he didn't like me back? I didn't want to feel so hurt, thinking he did!
I walked into my room after eating my mom's spaghetti. I sat on my bed and went on my phone, staring at me and Raph's texts. I wanted to call him, but I shut my phone off and turned-on F/S (favorite show). After a few episodes, I heard my doorbell ring.
"Y/N can you get the door?" Mama yelled from the kitchen.
"Yeah Ma!" I yelled back, getting up from my bed and walking to the front door. I opened it to see Raph. Why was he here? I thought. I smiled at him, and he turned red again. He cleared his throat and opened his mouth to speak.
"Y/N, I've been thinking about you for a while now and..." He began. I felt my heart beat faster, my face heating up. Oh God, is he...? I thought. I felt so excited, I wanted to scream with joy but kept it in.
"I wanted to know if you maybe wanted to go out sometime. If you say no, it's fine. I mean, I am a mutant turtle." He finished. I turned as red as his mask- no, even more red. This was it; this was the moment. I smile and begin to giggle like a dummy.
"Raph, were you trying to ask me out?" I asked, feeling like I was going to explode with happiness. All of the sudden, he turned and began to walk away. I ran to him quickly before he got away, grabbing his hand. He stopped and turned around, looking at me.
"I never said no!" I said, still smiling like an idiot. He blushed hard, which I laughed at how adorable it was.
"So... It's a yes?" Raph asked, I smiled bigger than I already was, nodding profusely.
"Of course, Raph! I've been feeling the same way about you for a while now. I didn't think you'd like me back." I said, hugging him. After a second, he hugged back. We, unfortunately, pulled away after a few seconds.
"I feel like I finally understand Leo." Raph said, chuckling a bit. I was about to speak but I heard mama calling me from inside the house. I looked back at my house then back at Raph. Without thinking, I kissed his cheek and let go of his hand. I turn around before he could see my red face, walking back to my house. I waved goodbye as I closed the door. After I did, I pressed my back against the door.
I just did that...!
