Request: I had to work up my nerve to do this for like 20 minutes 🤣 Hi, hope you’re having a good day/night (timezones are weird). I’d like to request something with #23 for 2014/2016 Donnie where the fem reader and he don’t talk much so he assumes she doesn’t like him but one night when she’s at the lair she catches him having a bit of a breakdown in his lab and comforts him?. I hope that isn’t dark, I did make sure to read your rules before requesting this. Thank you loads! 💜


                          
A/N: Howdy! I'm having a great day, but it'll probably be night when I post this XD Don't worry it's not too dark and I hope you enjoy!


                          
Prompt: 23.) “How long have you been standing there?” “Longer than you’d like.”

Was it the red wire or the blue wire? Ooor it could be this black wire Donnie just found. Said reptile huffed out an exasperated groan, dropping the wires to the ground in frustration. Palming his eyes, he leant back in his chair and kicked his legs out so he spun in a circle, "I'm never going to get this right," he groaned. 


                          
"Hey, D?" Mikey asked, his head popping in front of the flimsy curtain separating Donnie's lab from the rest of the lair, "Yes, Mikey?" he asked, although his tone was utterly bored. Mikey smiled in a guilty fashion, choosing to step out completely from the curtain, a hand scratching the back of his neck, "So, er, for some reason the controller for my game stopped working again, no clue why. Thought maybe you could take a look at it?"


                          
Donnie looked back down to the previous job he had yet to finish, some new wiring on the radio in the shellraiser. For the life of him he couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work, the damn thing had new wires was attached to a new battery but still couldn't sputter out a tune. With a sigh, he looked back over to his younger brother, "I'll give it a look," Mikey waltzed off with a grin across his face, "Thanks, D!"


                          
A few minutes later and the spunky turtle was back in Donnie's lab with the busted controller in hand. Donnie plucked it from Mikey's grip and closely examined it, the plastic was sticky and smelt like orange "No clue why, huh?" he mused. Mikey laughed uncomfortably taking small side-steps back to the entrance, "Ha ha, yeahh no clue. You can fix it though, right?"


                          
"I'll see what I can do, Mikey."


                          
"Awesome! Oh, erm, before I forget; (Y/N)'s coming over today for movie night, you in?"


                          
Donnie's mind seemed to wander at the very mention of your name, god what we would give just to have a conversation with you. I mean it's not like Donnie was that great at starting conversations, but for you, he read so many articles online, watched YouTube videos, listened to podcasts; yet he still had never spoken a word to you. There were the brief "Hi"s and "Bye"s but they were a rare occurrence, whenever you came over the genius made himself scarce. 


                          
It's not like he hated you, quite the opposite actually, Donnie was infatuated with you. He wanted to know what you did when you woke up in the mornings all the way to your last thought before bed. The thing was -the real stake in the heart- was that you didn't like him back; you rather hated him. It was no surprise for Donnie, I mean, he was a giant, talking, mutant turtle; why would you want to talk to him? But then he noticed how friendly you were to his brothers, you'd laugh and joke with them, train with them, cook with them.


                          
But never him.


                          
He had formed a sort of resentment for his brothers, loathing in the fact that they get to hang out with you, talk to you. Jealousy was a dangerous thing and Donnie thought he could keep it under control, keep it on the down-low from the others, only Splinter and Leo really seeing Donnie's true self. Why didn't you talk to him like the others? Was it something that he did when you first met? Acted a certain way that scared you off?
