Tmnt Generations-- Chapter 4: Good, new days.
Raph looked at Mikey like he was some dark turtle "Mikey... I thought I was the only one with feelings towards a turtle, I never expected you to also... this is weird." He said, his golden amber eyes scrunched as he had taken off the beanie "God, I do not know what to do, do you Mikey?"
"Just shut up and tell them raphie-boy" Mikey said, smiling goofishly "hey, remember what bishop said in 2105? The day aliens and mutants would become accepted on earth?" he asked. Raph nodded "that's 45 years from now mikey" Mikey shook his head "we messed with the future, so I don't think it's set in stone" he said.
Raph frowned, again "one day we can walk without hiding" he said. He smiled "but not near this future" he said. He sighed as Mikey grinned "First things first, Leo is your first thing to do" he said. Raph nodded "And yours is Donnie, what is he doing? Do you know?" he asked.
"Oh, I don't know. I'm going to ask him about hologram thingies that make us look human, i don't know. I don't think it's something we won't need" raph laughed at that "your right, we need that, time for you to go Mikey, I'm going to wait for now" he said, Mikey's ocean blue eyes sparkling "ok!" he ran out, obviously joyous.
Raph chuckled at the sea green turtle as he ran out "no doubt he is up to something. But that hologram idea, hmm... wonder how it works." he said. He sighed "at least living a normal life for now can work. And as normal as it can get" he said.
He stood and looked at the sai's he had set down "heh, almost forgot about you guys" he picked them up and frowned, he couldn't exactly carry then like he used to. "this is going to take time to figure out" he said, thinking deeply.
Leo POV
Leo was training in the basement turned dojo with Donnie "Leo, have you noticed that raph has been acting, I don't know, not himself?" Donnie asked, spinning as he jumped, sending two kicks at Leo, which were dodged "yeah, I got that too. When did it start?" he asked as he blocked some punches "after you went into a coma..." Leo stopped dead in his tracks "After I was comatized? That's weird..."
After the training Leo frowned as he saw Mikey run up to donnie "Donnie! Lab! Great idea" he litterally dragged Donnie away, which made Leo chuckle "I better go ask sensei what's wrong" he said heading towards the stairs and to the master bedroom, which has been turned into a japanese room. Mats and the sliding doors. 'master splinter works fast' he thought.
He knocked on the door as a "come in " was heard. Bracing himself, he inhaled deeply before going inside "Leonardo, what troubles you my son" master splinter asked as he sat cross legged on his bed, walking stick in front of him "Sensei, I wanted to ask about Raph, he has been acting... odd. I ask, do you know what's wrong?" splinter didn't answer for some time "Leonardo, Raphael will talk when he is ready. Give him time before confronting him." he said
Donnie POV
Donatello looked at Mikey as he was going in about human disguises "Mikey, it is a good idea, I'll see if I can figure it out. Is there anything else?" he asked, although don was to shy to admit, he loved the orange cladded turtles presence, and loved the turtle himself. He just couldn't confront him about it. He would have second thoughts each time he tried.
Mikey smiled "no, but I don't mind sticking around" Donnie looked him in the eye "just don't break anything, or your hologram will be an old man" Mikey chuckled nervously but nodded. Donnie had loved Mikey since they were 12, Mikey loved Donnie since they were 8, but both had not realized about the other.
Time ticked as Donnie worked, the sound of Leo leaving the master bedroom and walking into his own was heard. Mikey sighed and took a chance, he was starting to realize that he couldn't take it anymore. "Donnie...?" he asked after some moments passed.
The word hung in the air, Donnie was a little afraid to answer "... yes Mikey?" he asked. His heart was beating in his suspenseful state, hoping for something amazing.
Mikey looked at him "well... I think it's best to show you..." he said as he moved with great speed, their lips connected into a kiss.
Eyes filled with joy, Donnie kissed back, tears leaking off his face. He had dreamed if this day, but thought it was just that, a dream, except here they are, kissing. It only felt right as don rapped his arms around Mikey's shell while the orange cladded turtles hands were on his plastron. it was a minute until don broke the kiss, but the feelings lingered, Mikey blushed like crazy, his sea green skin darkening on his face "Donnie, what now? I don't know what to do now..." he said. Don, being the shy one, was also blushing "we see where it goes, no other way to go but forward..." he said. Mikey kissed the turtle once more before getting up "I'll go make lunch" he said as he waved and walked out, leaving Donatello to his thoughts and machines 'what will everyone think... god, what will master splinter say' he thought imagining three instances.
One instance involved disapproval and banishment. It was the worst case scenario. Another was giving his blessing with them to Persue happiness. The final one made him cringe, advice from splinter's soap operas, good advice, just horribly embarrassing.
He soon finished his own, shaped like a wrist watch. He sighed "I am slightly annoyed at this complicated tech, but 2105 gave me a large amount of knowledge" he said as he continued on the other 3.
Mikey POV
After the life changing moment in the lab, Mikey was in the kitchen 'boyfriend...' the word drifted on his head as he cooked. He was more preoccupied with his relationship. Course, he always wanted it, but it seemed to him that it was going to get harder, of course, LGBT society was finally fully accepted, the flames aimed at occult, anarchy, and terrorism. Two years ago was when LGBT society was accepted, of course, homophobes existed, but had dwindled significantly.
Being the carefree one, he really had no opinion in that matter. He was joyous that hopefully one day, they could walk without discovery, it appealed to him because he could do the relationship fully. Movies, dinner, the works. He sighed as he was almost done, in his thoughts he thought the time was going slow, but it went pretty fast.
He wondered what being human would feel like, even of it was just a disguise. So many thoughts, so many ideas. He sighed as he looked around, he was finished, now it had to sit. He had forgotten to wear his favorite 'kiss the cook' apron. He chuckled at the thought if it, but he sat to think over some things.
Raph POV
Raph had decided. He was going to go through with it. He stood, looking around, before walking out of his room. The sound of drama flowed from splinter's room, indicating his soap operas were on. Sighing in relief, raph went over to Leo's door, softly knocking on it "come in" was heard, and he obliged.
Inside he found Leo, meditating on his bed "hey" raph said "hey" Leo said back. 'god dammit to hell, this went a lot better in my head' he thought irritably. His sai, which he would never leave without, sat hidden in his large jacket pockets. He gripped them for comfort.
He looked at Leo "raph... I have something to say..." Leo began, but never finishing "Leo, it's me who has something to say. I have to say, I'm... dammit, why I'd it hard to say it... ugh!" he yelled. He looked at Leo and sighed "I like you, more than a brother, more than a friend, can we try this?" raph finally pulled out, hoping not to sound like a complete idiot, he had no type if experience with this and it pissed him off.
Leo blinked "umm... wow, I thought I was prepared for this. We have to go very slow with this. I'm not sure what to do yet. It's all too new. Great, I'm blabbing like an idiot" he said, a slight blush on his face. "nah, it's cute" raph said, smiling. Leo chuckled "ok then. Raphie" he said using the pet name Mikey gave raph. Raph smiled a little bit "fearless" he said. The word held no offense in it this time, which surprised Leo.
Leo stood, and raph walked closer "umm... raph.... this is my first kiss..." Leo said. "yeah, it's mine as well, don't be embarrassed" he said. They came closer, this time their heads closed in, Leo's arms rapping around raph's neck while raph rapped his arms around Leo's...
The door opened and splinter walked in. Both turtles shocked and pulled away "master splinter!" both yelled. "my sons. You were doing it wrong. Rapheal, you are to tightly embrace Leonardo. Leonardo, you are supposed to give a passionate, I love you, then you both of you are to share a deep loving kiss, Like in my soap operas." with that he left the room "what kind of soap operas has he been watching lately?" raph asked. Leo shook his head "I don't understand them, so I couldn't tell you raph"
Raph smirked "now where were we?" he asked as he tightly embraced Leo by surprised. Leo blushed "I love you raphie" raph leaned down "I love you too fearless" with that Leo tilted his head and lips met. Time seemed to slow as they shared the kiss.
Leo's and raph's hearts stopped as they kissed, they weeds filled with a feeling they couldn't quite explain. But it felt great, better than greats actually. Soon the kiss was broken "that was..." Leo started "fucking awesome" raph finished. "lets just hope splinter doesn't get any ideas about the... talk" he said, Leo clearly grimaced "or worse, his thoughts on how it should be done, like his soap operas" raph shivered "don't remind me" he said.
Soon Mikey voice rang "LUNCH!" he yelled, and the two turtles headed through the door, raph's arm around Leo's shoulders as Leo rapped his around raph's waist.
Mikey having seen the two walk out gave a knowing smile as the two sat beside each other. "finally" he said as Donnie soon joined them, giving Mikey a quick kiss "what's for lunch Mikey?" he asked, a bag in his hand "what's in the bag?" he asked, but already knew the answer, a wide grin spread "and for lunch we are having..." he was cut off as master splinter joined the four "your homemade pizza smells delicious Michelangelo" he complemented as the turtle set two pizzas down "would you like something with that master splinter?" he asked. Splinter shook his head "no my son, I will be quite alright" he said.
With that, everyone began eating, Mikey ate more than the others like usual. When they had finished master splinter looked at each if them "now we all need to have a talk, my sons" he said.
