Hello my wonderful readers! I have a few people to thank again. I need to thank CrazyGeekyLove, for the suggestion of You're beautiful by James Blunt. I also need to thank lillyboo18 for the suggestions of Chloe by Emblem3, Hips don't lie by Shakira, and Hey (I love you) by Michael Franti. Last, but not least, I need to thank Iamthatawesome for the suggestion of Best Friend by Jason Chen. Just to clear up some confusion before it starts, the one inspired by I'd lie by Taylor Swift is set in an AU where April has a crush on Donnie, not the other way around.
Chloe (You're the one I want) by Emblem3
"Dudes, Karai is pretty hot, regardless of her being evil and stuff." He heard Mikey say.
"Back off, Mikey. She's mine." Leo defended.
"Both of you are nuts. Karai might be hot, but she would never be dateable. She's evil." Raph growled.
He sighed and shook his head. Just because he was in the lab, didn't mean that he ceased being able to hear. He had no clue as to why his brothers found Karai so attractive. She wore too much make up. You could clearly see it caked on her face and with the unnatural marks she made around her eyes. It didn't help that she had a psychotic personality.
She was no where near a beautiful as his lovely April. She was perfect without make up, and was only a little crazy. Despite the fact that almost everyone else seemed attracted to Karai, April was the one who he wanted. Karai was too flashy, and dramatic. April was more of an elegant radiance.
The worst part was it seemed like April never wanted to believe all of the beautiful things her self. He was attracted to how passionate she was. She should just be herself, with her lovely smile. He wished she would believe in herself like he believed in her. Karai migh seem to have it all, but April had his heart, and that's all that really mattered.
Hips don't lie by Shakira
She had him hypnotized. Their party after beating the Kraang had lasted for several hours now, and Master Splinter had long since gone to sleep. More modern music was playing, and April swayed to the beat. He drank in the sight hungrily, knowing this may be the only time he got to see her like this. Her hips rolled, and he practically drooled. She made a pass by where he was sitting, and he was unable to stop himself from whispering nonsensically,
"あなたは怪我していますか？あなたは天から落ちていなければなりませんので。あなたが見て、天使のように踊ることができ、他の方法はありません。"
"What did you say?" She called from the dance floor, unable to hear him over the music.
"Uhhm, I said you were a good dancer!" He yelled back.
"Thanks Donnie!"
"Liar." Leo hissed from next to him. "You and I both know you actually said, 'Are you hurt? Because you must have fallen from heaven. There's no other way you could look and dance like an angel.' "
"I should have spoke Spanish, or French, or Itallian, or, Portuguese, or even Romanian." He muttered.
"No need to flaunt the fact you're the only one who can speak all of the Romantic languages, we've known it for years.
Best friend by Jason Chen
April was truly his best friend in every sense of the word. They'd only known each other for a few short months, but to him it felt like years. It had started out as infatuation, but it moved deeper, and took root. Every moment spent with her was a moment from some perfect dream. She made him feel like he was on cloud nine.
She was his fantasy. He longed for nothing more than to call hers his. If he had it his way, he would have found a way to propose to her by now, so he could ensure she would be with him, and grow old with him. He'd been there every time that jerk of a boyfriend, Casey, left her in tears. But every time, after she had been comforted and consoled, she went running back to Casey. How could he possibly tell her that he was in love with her, when after she stopped crying, she was so happy with Casey?
It felt like his love life was a really bad romance movie, and he had no clue as to how it would end. He was then doomed to spend all of his time wishing for her love and praying that she would fall in love with her best friend as well.
Hey ( I love you) by Michael Franti
He left her far too often for his liking. The more he went out to see the world, the less he felt he had an understanding of it. He supposed this was pretty accurate, but it daunted him nevertheless. His brothers constantly reminded him to hold onto her as tight as he could, because she was probably the best luck he'd ever had. No matter how insignificant his knowledge of the world began to seem to him, he knew there was one thing he knew for sure, and always would; he loved April O'Neil with his whole heart and soul.
I'd lie by Taylor Swift
Some days she couldn't stop staring at him. Why didn't he ever notice? She was in love with her best friend, and hopelessly stuck in the friend zone. Almost everyday she lounged in his lab, watching him invent marvelous things. She could remember the day she met him, the day her father had been taken. He had been so romantic, and wonderful that she had developed feelings for him almost instantly. They started getting closer, and before long they were best friends. He'd often confided in her that he thought he'd never fall in love; a man of science such as himself simply didn't have time for such things. She really hoped he was wrong.
She could rattle off details about him just as well, if not better, than she could about herself. His favorite color was purple, he was actually born on the seventeenth of June, and he loved to argue about scientific topics. He definitely had Master Splinter's eyes, even though they weren't blood related. Karai, his technically 'adopted sister' was super pretty, not that she'd ever tell Karai that. There were times when she'd seen him fiddling with a guitar, attempting to play it, and most days, she felt like he could figure out anything other than her feelings for him, and how beautiful she thought he was. She was painfully aware of that fact every day when she woke up. She'd put her some make up, hoping to look pretty to him and hope for some kind of a miracle. She knew all of his favorite songs, and she was one of the few people to ever see him cry. But if he ever asked her if she loved him, she'd lie.
You're beautiful by James Blunt
She made him irrational. She turned his brain to mush and short-circuited his every thought. He knew almost every odd was stacked against him. There was little to no chance that she would like him back, but he still had faith, still hoped. If it were some project or invention he was working on, and it had these odds of failing, he'd abandon it, believing it wasn't worth it.
She could have anyone else, other than him. Guys who could offer her a dating in a movie theater during the day, or at a fancy restaurant, when all he would ever be able to do is offer her pizza in a sewer, or show her some science-y project. She was just so beautiful, and he wanted to be the one to tell her that everyday. Although he loved to entertain the fantasy of being with her, and wrapped himself so tightly around it that he almost believed it himself, because it was almost necessary to his ability to function daily that he had some glimmer of hope, he knew really deep down that she would never be with him.
Yay! It's done. I feel kind of sad after writing that last one. Anyways, let me know what you think in the reviews!
