raphael x shy reader

It's been about 3 months since you met the turtles. You were more comfortable around them, but still extremely shy all the same. Mikey, despite the odds, is your best friend. You were sitting with him on the couch playing video games when Raph came and passed you both to go to the kitchen, you almost immediately stopped what you were doing and got distracted by the passing turtle. Yes, you had a HUGE crush on the hot head. but, he could never love someone like you, right? I mean, you can't even speak without stuttering! Let alone fend for yourself, you always needed help from one of the turtles, you were weak, you needed one of them to open the freaking PICKLE JAR! 

Mikey noticed you staring at Raph and his eyes went wide, you coked your head to one side and said, "What?"

"YOU LIKE RAPHIE!!!" he half whispered half screamed.

"W-what? N-no I don't!"

"OH MY GOSH, YES YOU DOOOOO!"

"Shhh! Mikey!!!"

He stopped teasing you and you had as ENORMOUS blush on your face. You stated to stare at the adorable hot head once more, and this time, it wasn't Mikey that noticed... IT WAS RAPH! Your eyes went wide once again and you quickly turned your head, hoping that he would just shrug it off, nope... He came over to you, good going (Y/N)! (That means your name) 

He looked at you with curious eyes and placed both hands on either side of you and his face got quite close to yours, so close you could feel his breath, making you shiver. 

"Were you looking at me?" he asked very intensely with a slight smirk. 

"N-no" you stuttered looking away.

"You stuttered." he said eyes still locked with yours.

"I-I always s-stutter!"

"Yes, but you're blushing." he said, his smirk getting bigger. You blushed even more, of course you were blushing!

"I-I uh..." you stopped and looked at his beautiful emerald eyes then quickly looked at your lap, ".....I'm sorry..."

He looked at you confused, "Sorry?"

"Y-yes..."

"Oh, um... Y-you don't have to be sorry (Y/N)." he paused for a moment, the spoke again, "Here," he held out his hand, "Come with me." You took his hand as he lead you to his bedroom. He shut the door behind him then sat on the bed, he patted a space beside his, signaling you to come sit.

You did so not knowing what would happen. You sat there for a couple of minutes in awkward silence, until he finally spoke. "(Y/N)?"

"Y-yes?"

"Why were you starring at me? Please be honest with me, whatever your thinking right now, just stop and answer me truthfully, I promise I wont think of you any differently."

He spoke so softly, he was just so... nice. It was so unlike him, it was... sweet...

"I-I uh... um... I really like you, but i'm weak and really shy and I know you could never like someone like me, so I just gave up on having a chance of you liking me back  because I know you could never like me. I'm too shy and i'm too fragile to be loved. You're so strong and you deserve someone like you, not me. but, I love you so much and I can't stand it anymore!" you blurted out really fast and Raph just sat there shocked by your sudden outburst. You have never said so much to him in your life.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.."

You started to walk off, but he grabbed your wrist and sat you down on his lap and hugged you. Not only that, but he was... crying. Raphael Hamato was crying. 

You reach up and wipe the tears from his face, and say, "Shh, Shh. It's okay. What's wrong?"

He nuzzles his face in your hair more, and said, "I was so scared, I didn't think you could love me. I though you were afraid of me and you thought I was a freak, I was so scared. I love you too. Please, don't leave me."

You give him a kind and loving smile as you wipe away the tears from his face, your hands on his plastron, still close to him. He gave you a smile too, a genuine one. You wished you could see that smile more often. "I promise."

With that you kissed his beak and he kissed your nose, you scrunched it up after and he thought it was adorable. He giggled as your nose scrunched up. He lied down taking you with him and you fell asleep with him lightly tugging at your hair playing with it. He smiled, and you felt so safe in his strong arms. you loved him, and noting could take that away from you. Your hot head, being a softy, just for you.
