Brown eyes
Pairing: Raphael x OC
This is the final chapter! Thank you for reading.
Raphs POV:
Several hours later and still nothing had happened. After I spoke to her I couldn't look at her again. It just brought back the feelings of loneliness and abandonment back. After 8 nearly 9 years she crashes back into my life without so much as an explanation as to why she didn't tell me that she loved me or what made her leave in the first place. I had to get away from her, from the anger that was threatening to escape from deep within me.
Katelyns POV:
After Don had finished doing his medical stuff, I'd yelled at Coco and Kimmi for their stupid idea, the girls had been introduced to the guy and told the story of their life and my dad had been informed as to what was going on, me and the sugar monkeys were told that we would have to stay in the lair until :
1. The guys had found out who had attacked us
2. Why they did it
3. And our injuries were healed
This Donny said would take at least A MONTH and at most TWO MONTHS. I was dead, kill me now coz if someone doesn't I would do it but not before I killed Raph! We hadn't been hear more than a day when the fights had started.
They weren't even about anything worth while. It was always about the stupid things like who had the TV remote or how long the other would spend in the bathroom. Stupid things but we always managed to hurt each other. I don't think ether of us really won, we both ended up hurt and slinking off to lick our wounds somewhere the other wouldn't see. No no one won not ever.
Raphs POV:
I was sick of the yelling and the name calling. It wasn't helping. In fact it was doing the opposite. With every fight a new wedge was driven between us and each new wedge made it more difficult to ask the one question that I had been wanting to ask for over 8 years ...
Do you love me?
Because I love you Katelyn and no matter how much time passes by and no matter how many times I tell my self that I'm not in love with you, that is just one big fat lie. Because a girl like you is impossible to find.
There could never be another girl like you. Not for me anyway and I would be damned if I was going to let my stupid pride get in the way!
Best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core
I knew that I would have to do something big to try and some how get her to answer my question.
Katelyns POV:
After 3 weeks Donny said were almost ready to go home. No one was really looking forward to this as the guys had become good friends with the sugar monkeys and non of them wanted to lose this new found friendship.
There was one thing that I had noticed about tonight. Me and Raph hadn't fought one. Not one today. I suppose I should be glad about this because it meant that I wasn't hurting him and he wasn't killing me verbally ether. But even though I say that I miss the fact that we weren't interacting at all I hadn't seen Raph all day.
I had finally worked up the courage to tell Raph that I still love him that I am still in love with him and he's no were in sight. Bloody typical.
But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Raphs POV:
Tonight was the night. I was going to ask her tonight. I had purposely avoided her all day so that we wouldn't get into a stupid argument and my pride prevent me from asking. I couldn't spend another day wondering.
I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find
Katelyns POV:
I was starting to get anxious. As the day wore on I started to doubt what I was doing. What if he doesn't love me? What if he's found someone else? What if he's with April? What if...
I began to get jittery and on edge. The girls noticed and one by one took it in terns to try and get me to tell them the reason why I was like this. I was falling apart, something that I had sworn I would never do again.
This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start
Raphs POV:
I had an hour before my plan would be put into motion and I had a dilemma, H ow in hells name was I going to get her onto the roof?
That is when I get an idea. I would ask one of her friend to help. I couldn't ask Chloe (A.N: that's Coco BTW) because she basically hated my guts for some reason only God knows. Kimmi was not an option because although she didn't hate me it was clear as day she couldn't lie to save her life. And I most certainly couldn't ask Lois because she can't keep a secret to save her life! So that left only Ruby the only sane one in the whole lot of them.
Oh But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It's impossible
Katelyns POV:
At around 10 O'clock Ruby finally snapped. She said that she was sick of my bad energy dampening the mood. She than promptly dragged me out of the lair and into the sewers. After a few minutes of walking, or being dragged in my case, we finally surfaced in an alleyway. It seemed familiar but I couldn't quite place why.
By the time I realized we were already nearing the top of the building next to the alley. This was our roof top, mine and Raphs. How did Ruby know? Or was it just coincidence that she had picked that manhole to come out of and this roof to clime to. I doubted that.
When we reached the top I was surprised and somewhat disappointed to find that the roof top was deserted. Ruby told me to stay where I was until I was in a better mood and then left in the same way we had come. And for some reason I did as she told me.
After a while I started to get cold and decided to leave. That is when I noticed I was not as alone as I had first thought. Stood only a few meters from me stood Raphael looking directly at me. How long had he been there?
As I opened my mouth to say something he indicated to me to stop by putting one of his fingers to his lips. Then he pointed up to the sky. As I looked up I saw that the night was clear and a million stars shone. I was filled with awe, this was a sight rarely seen in a city as large a New York. And just as I thought the view couldn't get any better it did. Shooting stars flew across the sky in there hundreds filling the sky with there celestial light.
So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I'm yours to keep
And hold onto your words
'Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When you're asleep
Raphs POV:
I knew she would like it. I header about this a few days ago, a meteor shower that would bee seen in New York, of all places. I knew that the others would be out as well, somewhere, they had planned this to be a leaving gift in a way as the girls would be going back home. It wasn't as though we would never see them again, we knew we would, it just wouldn't be the same as it was now.
After the light show was over I knew I had to ask her the question.
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
"Do you love me?"
Third Person POV:
"Do you love me?" Raphael asked
At this Katelyn seemed to falter she opened her mouth but the words wouldn't come out. Just as the mutant turtle turned to leave thinking that he had his answer she finally regained the power of speech.
"Yes!" she said looking at his shell
Raph stop in his tracks and then with the lightning speed of a ninja he pivoted and ran straight back to the girl who was almost in tears. When he got to her he pulled her into a passionate kiss that conveyed both of their bottled emotions from the previous 8 years in a way that all the word in the world could never do. They were finally where they needed to be and sad brown eyes changed into blissful brown stars that showed a love that would never be extinguished, not if they had anything to do with it.
SOMEWHERE ACROSS TOWN
They, the turtles, the girls, April, Casey and Master Splinter, stood watching the last to the meteorites fade from view. Ruby looked upon her friends ,and thought about friends that were not there for what ever reason, and smiled.
"This" she thought as she watched the people in front of her "is how living is meant to be!"
THE END
That's it, done. I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it, and bashing the plot bunnies over the head with a frying pan when they gave me better ideas AFTER I had posted. Pleas let me know if you liked it.
Lots of love
