Leo and Raphael had arrived home and the latter had barricaded himself in his bedroom.

It was 3 a.m. when Raphael woke, feeling extremely feverish, hot and a deep desire to rut. Damn it. It's matin' season, he thought in dismay. It's hit me. I gotta fight and not succumb ta my instincts and my hormones. My body wants me ta find Leo and ta mate with him, but my brain's screamin' no, because it'd just complicate things even more. Fuck. I know I'll think 'bout things that ain't sexy and…That'll work. I'll do my best ta avoid the guys and …..I can get through this. I got through this as a boy and I can now. It ain't gonna be different.

He tried to sleep, but his raging hormones wouldn't let him, his body begging for relief, so his hands wandered to his slit. He touched it for the first time since his transformation, bemoaning the fact that he no longer had the ten inch purple cock he'd been immensely proud of. All he had was a slit that when it parted, was velvety, warm and ideal for a cock to penetrate. Ideal for Leo's cock. Raphael thought and flushed, as he imagined Leo making love to him. He missed his cock, but the new genitalia wasn't unpleasant. He liked the silkiness of it and of the soft skin between his legs and on his body. Could he really get used to becoming a woman? There was only one way to find out and what better way than exploring?

Raphael stuck a finger into his slit and fingered himself, picturing him and Leo between the sheets, Leo's rod thrust deep inside of him, as they as came together. He groaned at the sensation, his finger soon slick with his warm juices. He churred in ecstasy, his eyes closed, as he climaxed. Man, that was hot, he thought, and licked his finger. Even my juices taste different, sweeter, but I ain't satisfied. I need more and I want more. I feel kinda empty, ya know. My body's yearnin' for somethin' huge ta fill me and ta stuff me. It wants Leo. I'm tryin' ta fight my urges, but it's so fuckin' hard. How am I gonna resist him?

The door suddenly burst open, as Leo barged his way through it and shoved the chair Raphael had set up as a barrier against the door out of the way.

"Leo?" Raphael said in astonishment, looking at Leo's eyes that shone with lust.
Leo locked the door and said huskily, "You. I'm sorry, but mating season's started and I can't control my urges. Some Master of control I am, but that's what you do to me. You have no idea how irresistible you are."
"Me either," Raphael said, parting his legs. "I want ya so badly and I need ya. I couldn't stop thinkin' 'bout ya. Look, Leo, if we do this, I'll make a deal. We can see how things go, but if my decision is Mona, I'm goin' with her."
"I can work with that," Leo said stared hungrily at Raphael and cupped his cheek, making him shiver and blush at the scrutiny and touch. "You're so beautiful, Rach. I couldn't take my eyes off of you when you were a guy and I still can't. I'll never tire of looking at you. I'm so honored my first time's going to be with you and that whatever happens, we shared this special moment."
"Sap. Are ya gonna fuck me or not?"

Leo grinned and trailed kisses down Raphael's plastron, making him moan and part his legs wider in anticipation. The leader then nipped Raphael's collarbone, leaving multiple love bites he knew would be visible. Marks that meant Raphael was Leo's and his alone, because there was no way he'd share him with anyone and if anyone tried, they'd face his wrath.

Leo kissed Raphael's plump lips, traced his jawline with his fingers and said, "You're exquisite, Rachael, a work of art. I'm going to show you how much you're adored every chance I get. This isn't just primal need. I'm finally getting to show you how much you're cherished. I don't want to rush it. I want to savor each moment, so lie back and allow me that."
Raphael flushed and said, "I ain't patient. Ya know if I want somethin', I gotta have it right away."
"You'll listen," Leo said in his most authoritative tone that made even Raphael listen.
"I will. Even I can't say no when ya speak so sternly. Go on, but I ain't that special."
"You are. I love your curves, your soft skin, your hips are wider now to bear our young and your tail's even cuter. Your lips are so warm and inviting. You're my canvas and I could stare at you forever. You're a dream come true, Rach."
Raphael blushed and said, "Stop it. Yer makin' me shy."
"Mmm. I love that side of you. We both know the real you is shy and a little insecure beneath your rage," Leo said, stroking Raphael's inner thigh and admiring the soft skin. "You were so shy as a kid that you stammered. Do you remember? Then you built up all those damn walls and no one could scale them. Not until now. I've broken them down, haven't I? One touch and you're all mush and only for me. Isn't that right, babe?"
"Yeah, Leo," Raphael said softly and shivered at his touch. "Yeah. I'm yers, Leo, and that's me ta a T. Ya know me so well. I act tough, but I'm just as tender as ya and the others and all I wanna do is be loved. This is heaven. I like it so much."
"Mmm. You smell so good," Leo said and lifted Raphael's foot. Leo sucked his toes, making Raphael's cheeks redden and then he licked the soft skin between Raphael's thighs. "You taste incredible, Rach. Like Jasmine. I wonder if you smell the same there. I bet you do. Are you wet thinking about us and the fun we're going to have? Yes. You are. Your pheromones are going nuts. You want this, don't you?"
"Yeah. I want it and ya. I sound like a needy bitch."
"You sound perfect and you're no bitch. Not really."

Leo proceeded to give Raphael a long and sensuous tongue bath all over his body, his leathery tongue driving the hothead wild, as he fisted the sheets and groaned in pleasure.

So this is what love is 'bout, Raphael thought, as his eyes met Leo's. Real love and a deep connection. I love it and it don't matter that I'm the uke. All that matters is this moment and us. Us. I never thought Leo and I'd do this, but it feels so good and so right.

Leo smiled said, "How do you feel, Rach?"
"I got an itch and I need ya ta satisfy it," Raphael blurted out unashamedly. "All this tenderness is awesome, but I want more."
Leo burst out laughing and said, "You may have changed on the outside, but you're still the same inside. Are you sure you want to go all the way?"
"As sure as I got a shell on my back. Make love ta me, Leo."

Leo rubbed his slit and soon dropped down with a growl, his forest eight inch cock oozing precum, the veins pulsating.

Raphael looked at Leo's dick and said, "Yer a huge boy, but ya ain't as big as I was, Leo. I was ten inches. I bet yer eight."
"That's right. It's going to hurt a little, Rach, okay?"
"I know, but that'll pass. Hurry up. I'm gettin' old waiting."

Leo lowered his head and licked Raphael's slit. Then he smiled and said, "You taste delicious, like honey. I love it, Rach. Sweet and scrumptious like you."

Raphael blushed and thought, I can't stop flushin' like a chick, but I love his compliments and I love what he does. I feel so loved and I don't want it ta stop.

Leo stuck a finger inside of Raphael's slit and when he thought he was ready, he plunged his dick inside of him, causing the temperamental turtle to hiss at the burning sensation.

"You okay, Rach?" Leo asked in concern and pulled out.
"I'm fine, Leo," Raphael said. "It just stung a bit. Continue. I'm fine. I promise."
"I'll go gently, okay?"

Leo kept his word and gently thrust back inside of Raphael. He soon formed a steady rhythm that had them seeing stars, Leo churring loudly, as Raphael chirped contentedly, their eyes locked on one another's.

Raphael rolled his hips, so that Leo could go in deeper, his nails raking down Leo's muscular arms, as they rocked as one.

Their hearts raced, as the rocking intensified, both feeling so alive and loved. It was how they'd pictured their first times to be. Gentle and sweet and with someone they loved.

This is pleasure, Raphael thought. I feel like I'm on fire and I'm so full and so satisfied. I belong with him maybe. Not Mona. Damn. I've never felt so loved before. Leo's so considerate, gentle and I could be happy with him forever. Maybe I should be with Leo. I will. I'll pick Leo and see how it goes and then if things don't work out, I could go back ta Mona maybe.

It wasn't long before Leo came, filling his lover up with his sticky and yelling Rachael. He pecked Raphael on the lips, pulled out, flopped down beside him and panted.

Raphael climaxed soon after and tugged Leo close, a huge grin on his face.

"Happy, Rach?" Leo asked.
"Yes. That was my first time and it was everythin' I imagined it would be," Raphael said.
"Mine too. I'm glad it was with you."
"Me too," Raphael said sleepily. "Hey, Leo. I think I wanna be with ya forever. I don't think I want Mona back. Not after this, us. I know I said I was confused, but this unconfused me. I only want ya. It feels so right bein' with ya, ya know."
"Are you sure you're not just saying that, because of what we did? You might regret it later."
Raphael kissed him passionately and said, "No. I want this and ya. Not temporary. Forever. Now kiss me and let's seal the deal."
"I'm glad you chose me," Leo said, his eyes shining with happiness. "I swear I'll love you until my dying breath and I'll always cherish and honor you."
"So will I. Yer so sexy, Leo, and yer a great person. I'm lucky ta have ya."

Leo kissed him, pouring his heart, body and soul in it, never having felt so elated before. He finally had the person he'd always wanted and he'd ensure Raphael never doubted his love.

I think I made the right choice, Raphael thought. Now I can have the family I've always wanted and I know Leo will treat me right. He's everythin' I could ever want in a mate and more and I'll always be faithful and true ta him. I'm gonna tell Mona I've decided ta stay a chick.

Raphael fell asleep, his body as close to Leo as he could get, Leo's scent filling his nostrils, and feeling the happiest he'd ever been in his short existence.

A/N How will the others take the news that Leo and Raph are a couple?
