Raphael was dozing when his phone rang. He fumbled for it and said sleepily, "Hi?"

"Hey, Raphie," a high pitched female voice said. "It's Alex."

"Alex!" Raphael said, instantly awake.

"Did I wake you?"

"Uh, no. I was just… Wow. This is a surprise. I didn't think ya'd call."

"I love your voice! It's so sexy and your accent. It's making me go weak at the knees."

"Really? Some people think it's uncouth."

"Well, I think it's frigging sexy. Just like you are. How are you doing? Leo been bothering you?"

"Not really. I talked ta him and we made plans ta go out later."

"That's nice. I'm glad you patched things up. No matter what happens in life, Raphie, family is everything and you and Leo need one another."

"So, what ya got planned today?"

"Just talking to my gorgeous, sweet boyfriend." Raphael flushed, feeling all gooey inside at the compliment. "Hey, Raph, tell me something about yourself no one else knows."

"I'm a romantic. I love poetry. If someone wrote me a love note or poem, I'd treasure it forever. I'm afraid of dyin' alone."

"I'm a perfectionist and if I don't nail something, I'm down for months. I have to get it right. It annoys my brothers, who don't understand."

"Sounds like my brother, Leo. Ya guys could be soul mates," Raphael teased. "Ya know, Alex, it's okay if ya don't nail everythin'. I mean, look at me. I'm far from a perfectionist and I'm okay with that. Ya gotta loosen up."

"You're helping me to, Raph."

"Good."

"Your turn."

"I'm scared of cockroaches. My brothers tease me and Mikey puts them in my bed, in my dresser and everywhere I can see them."

"That's terrible, Raph."

"Yeah. Doesn't make the phobia go away. I know that sounds nuts. Me, a big, strong, macho guy afraid of bugs. Ya must think me silly."

"Just human, Raph. We all have fears and I don't think any less of you. Another secret. I want to go to Japan, but I don't want to leave my brothers, who are dependent on me."

"They could go with ya."

"Japan isn't for them. They're happy here, so I'll probably not go and spend my life here. Your turn."

"I'm intersex," Raphael blurted out. "Oh, crap. Forget I said that! Look, I know it's weird and I'll understand if ya don't wanna be with me no more. I'm a freak!"

"You're not, Raph. God made you and you're perfect as you are and I…I still want to be with you. I like you for you."

"Yer not disgusted?" Raphael said in amazement.

"No way. Here's a secret no one knows. I'm curious about BDSM and I want to try it."

"Me too. I'm kinda kinky. Maybe too kinky for ya."

"I doubt it. Tell me a fantasy of yours, Raphael."

"I wanna tie ya up, so yer powerless, ram my thick cock into yer pussy and fuck ya so good, that ya yell my name over and over. I'm feelin' excited thinkin'bout it. And I wanna fill ya up with my seed and ya ta carry my babies. Wanna be a daddy someday."

"Stroke your cock, Raphael. I want to hear you moan and say my name."

Raphael pressed the speaker on his phone and turned his attention to his slit, stroking it rapidly until he dropped down with a loud churr, his semi erect cock leaking precome. He rubbed his cock, closing his eyes and chanting Alex's name, while she encouraged him to continue. He soon came, with a deep rumble rolling up his throat, his salty and sticky essence coating his plastron and the bedsheets.

"Ah!" he panted into the phone.

"Feel good?" Alex asked. "Nothing like cyber."

"Yeah. It was hot, but I wish ya were here with me. Hey, send me….Send me….Sorry if it sounds rude, but send me a photo of yer boobs."

"You're a boob man."

"Yeah," Raphael said, tucking his cock back into its slit. "Just wanna see what yer melons look like."

"Fine, but then I want a photo of your dick."

"Of course."

Raphael waited and a couple minutes later, a photo of the biggest boobs he'd ever seen appeared in his inbox. "Whoa," he said. "They're impressive. Upper D's? For yer small frame, didn't think yers were that big! They real?"

"Au natural, Raph," Alex said and giggled. "All yours and yes, 38 double D's.

"God, yer makin' me horny again!"

"Your turn."

Raphael went online, found a photo of a ten inch cock and sent it to her mail.

"Holy cow, Raphael," Alex said. "That's yours?"

"Sure is. Now imagine that in ya. Right now."

"I'm feeling wet picturing it sliding right in!"

"Oh, yeah, baby. Gonna pound…."

There was a knock at Raphael's door and he groaned in frustration, as Don said, "Raphael, I'm hearing noises. Are you okay?"

"Go away, Donnie!"

"But…."

"Now, unless ya want a fist in yer face!"

"All right. Sheesh! Hey, Usagi will be here in a bit. Please be ready."

"Sorry, Alex," Raphael said. "That was my bro. His lame-ass boyfriend is gonna be here soon and I have ta get ready. Can we talk later?"

"Sure, but don't you think you were a bit rude to your brother? He was just asking if you were okay?"

"Yeah, maybe. I'll tell him I was busy with a call. I'll phone ya later. Love ya."

"Love you too, Raphie."

Raphael disconnected the call and smiled. Wow, he thought. She loves me even though I'm intersex, but would she feel the same way if she knew I was a turtle? Nah! What the hell am I gonna do if she wants ta meet up? I wanna meet her, but I'm so scared she'll run away. I can't handle another rejection.

Raphael grabbed a towel and went to the bathroom.

Raphael had a long, scalding shower, savoring the warmth, as it cleansed him of his jizz. Thinking of Alex, he found himself aroused again and began beating off, only to immediately stop, as the hot water became cold, quashing his arousal. Fuck. I've used all the hot water, he thought in dismay. Leo's probably gonna bitch 'bout it. He sometimes likes a shower in the afternoon. Raphael quickly dried himself and exited the bathroom.

"Hey, Raph," Leo said, approaching him. He wore a blue towel and nothing else and Raphael couldn't help feeling tight in his shell. Leo was still so damn sexy. Fuck. Think of Alex, Raphael thought.

"Hey," Raphael said casually. "The bathroom's free."

"There still hot water?"

"Afraid not. Sorry."

"Oh. That's all right. I'll grab one later."

"Yer not mad?" Raphael said in surprise.

"Nope," Leo said and smiled. "The water should be warm after dinner. I'll snag a shower then. Hey, you okay? You've been in your room all afternoon. Still upset about Mona? Did you call her?"

"I'm fine, Leo. In fact, I'm on top of the world."

"That's nice, Raph," Leo said, placing a hand on his shoulder and squeezing it gently. Raphael tried not to flinch at the contact. "We still on for later?"

"No, bro. I, uh, have plans. Rain check?"

"Of course. See you at dinner."

"Yeah."

As Raphael wandered to his room, he thought, Leo's usually pissed if I take all the hot water? Why's he so damn blasé 'bout it? Ugh. Gotta stop thinkin' 'bout him. Can't wait till me and Alex talk later. Maybe she'll send me a pussy pic.

Usagi arrived and the meal was uneventful and dull in Raphael's opinion. The rabbit was rambling about some adventure that he'd been on and Don was fussing and attending to his every need. The couple were also so lovey-dovey that it made Raphael want to hurl. Curling his lip up in distaste, Raphael dug into his spaghetti and prayed dinner would be over soon. "And what about you, Raphael?" Usagi asked.

"What do ya mean, Usagi?"

"Have you found someone? Will there be little turtles?" Usagi asked, a twinkle in his eyes.

"Maybe."

"Oh? You mean you actually found someone willing to put up with you?"

"Usagi!" Don warned. "Please."

"Yeah," Raphael said. "Her name's Alex and I..."His green eyes shone with happiness and he added, "It's early days, but man, I've fallen for her. Don't make fun of me."

"Never," Don said. "That's awesome, Raph, but take things slowly. I'd hate you to get burned."

"Yeah. We are. She's so special and sweet and makes me laugh."

"So, when are we going to meet Alex?" Don asked, as Leo tried not to choke on his dinner.

"Ya okay, Leo?" Raphael asked.

"No. I'm feeling a bit sick. Going to lie down."

"Ya need me ta walk ya ta yer room?"

"No, no. I'll be fine. See you guys later," Leo said, and left.

Don excused himself a few minutes later and went to Leo's room, where he found him sitting on the bed, head in his hands. "You okay, Leo?" he asked.

"No!" Leo said, raising his head and looking at Don. "He's in love with "Alex".

"I don't understand what the problem is. Isn't that a good thing he's found love?"

"I'm Alex."

"Explain." Leo did, and Don said furiously, his arms crossed, "How could you lie to him, Leo, and give him false hope? Have you no shame? Poor Raph."

"Look, I feel bad, Don, but Mikey said…"

"Mikey and his hare brained schemes rarely work, Leo! You know that. I'm so mad at you. You owe Raph the truth and if you don't tell him, I will. Poor guy thinks he's in love when it's all been a lie."

"Everything I said was the truth. The photo just wasn't of me! How I do tell him, Donnie, that Alex doesn't exist and that it's me who loves him? Earlier, I shot the idea of him as a mate down, so he'll feel doubly pissed."

"With good reason. As Alex, ask Raph to meet you somewhere and then tell him the truth. Just be open and frank. He'll rant, yell at you, maybe hit you and maybe never trust you again, but he won't hate you forever. You're still brothers and have that bond."

"And my plan?"

"Well, I wouldn't want to be with someone, who lied to me, but who knows, Leo? I don't know what Raph will do once he's cooled down. Time will tell. Goodnight."

After dinner, Raphael was lounging in his hammock, when his phone rang. "Hey."

"It's Alex, Raphie. Want to meet up tomorrow?"

"Uh, I…"

"I really want to see you, Raphie, and meet the guy I'm nuts about. I know it's soon, but I…I just feel…What do you say?"

Raphael sighed, knowing he finally had to be honest and, expecting rejection, he said, "There's somethin' 'bout me ya need ta know. Somethin' that'll freak ya out."

"Tell me when we meet up."

"Ya might scream."

"Nothing about you would make me run for the hills, Raph. I love you so much. So, we on? We can meet on the roof top on twelve Hudson Avenue. It's a huge block of apartments."

"I'll be there. What time?"

"Nine."

"I'll be there. Hey, ya wanna play?" Raphael husked.

"Not now. I'm kind of feeling a bit sick. Early night."

"I'm sorry ta hear that, angel. I hope yer better soon and know I love ya. I told my brothers 'bout ya and how amazin' ya are. Ya'd love them. Maybe after the meetin', ya can come home and meet them."

"Yeah. Night, sweet Raphie."

"Night, princess."

Fuck, Raphael thought, his heart hammering after the line went dead. I'm so happy I'm gonna meet her, but what if she does run and calls me a monster? I think my heart would shatter.

A/N Thanks for all the reviews and follows. How will Raph react if he learns the truth?
