Ch.8 Raph's Ex; First Kiss:
Raph took Leo to a drive through movie. He had a feeling that Leo never been to a drive through movie and he wanted Leo to have a great time.
"Wow! I've never been to a drive through movie. What movie are we going to watch?" Leo asked with excitement in his voice that made Raph smile at his boyfriend.
"Yeah I had a feelin' that ya haven't been here. We're seein' a movie called "Nightmare on Elm Street." It's supposed ta be scary. My friend said it was cool so yeah." Raph said smiling at Leo.
Leo smiled a little bit but he was a little nervous. He never cared for scary movies but he's gonna try to tough it out.
Raph just smirked at Leo. He heard from April that Leo is pretty scared of horror movies and April told Raph that he could use it to get closer to Leo.
Raph rubbed the back of Leo's neck which made Leo shiver and look at Raph. Leo just blushed under his gaze.
"Ya know if ya get scared…ya can cuddle up next ta me." Raph said with a husky voice that sent shivers down Leo's spine. Leo has no idea how Raph makes him feel like this.
"Ah…why do I have a feeling this was a set up?" Leo said with a knowing smile that made Raph give him a sheepish smile.
"And what would ya say if it was?"
"Nothing…At least I got your shoulder to hide in. Let me guess…April told you?"
Raph smirked wider which gave Leo his answer. Leo just shook his head with a smile on his face.
"Ya ain't mad right?"
"Not at all. In a way…I think it's pretty sweet April told you. She wants us to get closer. Never thought my sister would turn into a matchmaker hehe." Leo said with a smile that made Raph's heart flutter yet again.
"Heh…She does want ya to be happy baby. She's just like my sis in a way." Raph said with a sad smile.
Leo just looked at Raph with a sad look. Leo hates seeing Raph get so sad, just like Raph hates seeing him get sad. Leo grabbed Raph's hand and gave it a squeeze to calm his nerves.
Raph just looked at Leo and gave him a smile. He raised their shared hands and gave Leo's a kiss.
"Hey Raph…" Leo asked quietly not sure if he should continue with his question.
Raph noticed Leo's hesitation and he squeezed his hand to give him some confidence to asked his question.
"What is baby? Ya know ya can ask me anythin'. So what the matter?"
Leo just smiled at Raph and took a deep breathe to ease his nerves.
"Did…D-Did you ever had…another boyfriend or girlfriend…b-before me?" Leo asked looking Raph in the eye.
Raph's eyes widened. He was surprised by Leo's question and he threw him off for a moment.
"What made ya asked me that babe?"
"Well…I uh…I was just wondering is all…I mean…you are h-handsome and could have anyone you want…" Leo said as he fiddled with his shirt to calm his nerves.
Raph just smirked at Leo's actions.
Raph then reached over to Leo's head and lifted Leo's chin to look at Raph and he made Leo blush.
"So…ya think I'm handsome do ya?" Raph said as he got a little closer which made Leo blush even harder.
Leo nodded his head not trusting his voice. He kept his eyes on Raph wondering what he was going to say or do.
"Hmm…ta answer yer question baby…yes I did have a girlfriend recently. But she was just with me because I'm the leader of a gang and thought if she had me, she can get feared and get fancy shit. Pfft! Stupid bitch, don't know why I was even with her in the first place." Raph said mostly to himself.
Leo looked surprised and he didn't feel bad for the girl he called a bitch because it's not right to use anyone for their own game.
"I'm sorry to bring up a bad past again."
"Don't be silly. That ain't too painful. In fact…I'm glad I broke up with her…cause if I didn't…I wouldn't of met ya." Raph said with a serious look on his face as he looked at Leo.
Leo blushed under Raph's gaze. He wanted to turn away but he kept his gaze on Raph's beautiful green eyes.
"Raph…"
"Leo…"
They're face gotten closer and closer that their months almost touched. Raph rubbed his beak to Leo's beak which made Leo blush a bit. Then Raph lowered his month to get closer to Leo's when they heard a tap on Raph's side of the window.
Raph growled at being interrupted and he turned to see who was bothering him. To his surprised it was Raph's ex-girlfriend Jasmine.
'Are ya fuckin' kiddin' me right now?!' Raph thought in anger.
"I, uh, take it that's your ex-girlfriend right?" Leo asked in a worried voice as he saw Raph's ex glare at him.
"'Fraid so, yeah…" Raph said as he moved away from Leo to lower his window down and he gave Jasmine a glare.
"What the fuck do ya want Jasmine?!"
"What the hell are ya doing with that bitch?! I thought ya loved me Raph?!" Jasmine yelled putting her hands on her hips.
"Pfft! Like hell! I neve'a loved ya Jasmine! And don't ya EVER call him that ya understand! Get the hell outta here now! Yer interrupting my date!"
"Ha! Whatever! Yo, blue eyes, ya better enjoy spending time with Raph cause he'll just toss you aside like he did me and all those other girls. And I'll be laughin' at cha when he does!" Jasmine said with so much venom that made Leo shiver and he looked down to the car floor to escape her heated glare.
"Ya better get the fuck outta here and quick talkin' lies! I left ya cause yer a goddamn gold digger ya stupid bitch! NOW LEAVE!" Raph yelled which made Jasmine back away and nearly ran away from the turtle couple.
Raph took a deep breath and looked toward Leo with a worried expression.
"Baby…Ay ya okay?" Raph asked as he rubbed Leo's shoulder to stop Leo from shaking.
Leo looked up at Raph with a sad look that Raph didn't not like at all.
"Baby…don't listen ta what she said. She's just tryin' ta get ya ta hate me…baby…please tell me ya ain't mad at me?" Raph asked in a pleading voice that sounded out of character for him which Leo didn't like.
"I…I'm not mad at you Raphie…Just…Sigh I dunno… In a way I know she's making me feel bad…but sometimes I wonder…why did you ask me out, or why am I the one you chose. I'm nothing special. Just an ordinary high school turtle trying to make it through life…So…Sometimes I question it…" Leo said as he looked out his window feeling Raph's heated gaze on him.
Raph was mad. Why did Jasmine come and ruin his and Leo's date and interrupted their almost kiss. And now…he's hearing how Leo feels about their questions.
Raph then reversed his truck to leave the drive through movie theater which surprised Leo.
"W-Where are we going?" Leo asked nervously.
"We're going ta the park where we first met…We need ta talk…and I wanna prove ta why I'm with ya." Raph said with a serious voice that made Leo blush and he just nodded his head and waited while Raph drove.
At The Park:
Raph brought him and Leo toward the park where they first met. Leo decided to take him to his and April's favorite place that their mother always brought them. Leo felt like it be a perfect spot and he trust Raph, even if he asked Raph why he was with him.
Leo laid his head on Raph's shoulder as Raph had his left arm around Leo's shoulder and hugging him closer.
"So…ya wanna know why I chose ya huh Leo..?" Raph asked softly making Leo look up at Raph's face. Raph faced forward not looking at Leo for a moment.
"Yes…"Leo said softly as he looked away from Raph's face to look at his lap.
"Sigh…the funny thing is…I don't know why I chose ya babe…" Raph said finally making Leo's eyes widened but he kept his gaze on his lap.
"When…When I first saw ya…my heart fluttered a bit…And it neve'a did that fer anyone I've ever met, or dated. When ya smiled when ya were talkin' ta Donnie fer the first time…was when my heart fluttered and at that moment Leo…I wanted ta get ta know ya…Yer different from anyone I've eve'a met before…Yer the first person I've eve'a told my painful past too. I've neve'a told any of my girlfriends or boyfriends about my sista…I felt like I can trust ya…Sigh…It's hard ta explain Leo but…Ya mean a lot to me. Being with ya this past month made me the happiest turtle in the world…And I wouldn't change a thing. And…you know the pain of losing someone precious just like I do…And even if ya don't believe me…I'm still gonna chase afte'a ya ta prove I'm serious about'cha." Raph said as he whispered the last part in Leo's ear which made Leo blush blood red.
Raph kissed Leo's red cheek, and it made Leo blush more. Raph just smiled at Leo's blushed face and he continued kissing Leo's face. H then kissed Leo's neck which made Leo moan.
"R-Raph..! W-Wait a sec…ah…c-can you slow d-down…p-please?" Leo asked trying to catch his breathe.
Raph chuckled at him but moved his month away from Leo's neck to give him a serious look.
"Ya agree with me now baby?" Raph asked with a smirk on his face.
Leo blushed and nodded at him.
"Y-Yeah…I agree with you Raph…" Leo said with a small smile that made Raph smile as well.
"Good…cause I ain't gonna leave ya baby." Raph said as he kissed Leo's forehead.
Raph and Leo just looked at each other. Leo never felt so safe, so loved, and so safe. Just looking at Raph's eyes made Leo shiver and feel loved. He can't believe he's here with him now. He actually smiled again like he did when he was a child. He never thought he could ever meet someone that makes him smile.
Raph was also having the same thoughts. He never felt so alive. He actually had a real smile on his face. Ever since his sister died he hasn't really smiled…but meeting Leo…he has a reason to smile. He's willing to show Leo that he's serious about their relationship.
Raph then moved his head closer to Leo's face and Leo raised his head to Raph's. They kept their eyes on each other. Raph rubbed Leo's beak with his like that they did at the movie drive through before they were interrupted, but this time…they were all alone.
And they finally kissed under the stars. They felt electric shook go through them when the kissed. Raph and Leo never felt this feeling before, and they knew where they belonged with each other.
Raph licked Leo's lip to ask for permission and Leo let him but he was shaking when he felt the gang leaders tongue in his mouth playing with his.
Leo gripped Raph's shirt tightly and started shaking with their kiss. Leo then moved his lips away from Raph's to breathe.
"Ah…Ah…Are you trying to suffocate me." Leo said with a teasing smile.
Raph just smirked at Leo's face and voice. He had kissed before, but that was the best kiss he ever had in his life.
"Wouldn't dream of it babe. But I expect more kisses from ya." Raph said with a smirk that made Leo blush and smile as he nodded at him.
Raph kissed Leo again beginning a new part of their relationship. Making them a stronger couple. If Raph has to prove more to Leo he's serious then that's what he'll do.
