Note: This one's a little different from my usual fare but I hope you guys like it anyways. It's set in an indeterminate future. Plus it's super short. I wanted to do a bunch of drabbles how the guys would react to April having a baby. The first generator I did was for Raph and April and boy was I surprised...
Raph stared down at his wife with a strange combination of awe and horror.
From behind he could hear Donnie nattering away, but the sound was distant. As though his brother was miles away as opposed to a few feet.
"It's not uncommon," Donnie explained, mostly to himself since Raph was in no way listening, "actually I'm surprised it wasn't more. Terrapins are known for…"
He likely would have continued if not for the dark look April shot in his direction. It reminded him that while she might be incapacitated for the moment eventually she would be back on her feet, and then he would pay.
Oh, how he would pay.
"Well, um, I'm just gonna…go…now." Donnie smiled nervously, eyes flicking towards the door, "You guys call if you need anything."
As the young genius cautiously sidled his way out of the room, assumably to tell the others the good news, Raph took no notice.
Even covered in sweat with long strands of hair plastered to her faces, even with the dark circles under her eyes, even after the mildly traumatizing scene that he'd just witnessed, April O'Neill was still the most breathtaking woman he'd ever seen.
From her place on the cot April looked up at the husband she'd just spent the better part of three hours cursing with every breath she had. Despite her exhaustion there was a wicked twinkle in her eye.
"So," she said lightly, gesturing to the tiny bodies scattered around her, "what was that about wanting more kids?"
Rolling his eyes, Raph knelt down to get a closer look at his own private miracle or more accurately his six private miracles. It was so hard to believe that Raph had to count the tiny bodies again, just to make sure.
"…I think we're good.
