You've been seeing Mikey for five months, unbeknownst to his family, and they catch the two of you dancing on your rooftop, lovingly, and realize Mikey had never looked so happy.
But can they push aside the fact he's been sneaking out and now you could be in danger for knowing they exist?
It was a good evening, you determined as you watched your boyfriend try to fix the skateboard he'd given you. You'd wiped out pretty hard on it, lightly damaging the wheel somehow in your solo crash. The two of you were sitting on the rooftops, silently between Mikey's comments and small stories. Though work had been particularly rough on you today and school had been excruciatingly long, Mikey had made it better.
Mikey always made things better.
While watching the clear night sky, you thought of something that could make this even more relaxing and pulled out your phone, connecting it to the little speaker you'd always brought up with you for when you watched rooftop movies or just simply listened to podcasts or something random.
Mikey heard you shuffling and glanced back at you, smiling as he did so, catching sight of what you were doing. "Another podcast, Angelcakes?"
"Nah, I was thinking more of a music vibe." You flipped through your music and started a playlist of popular songs. Laying back, you continued watching the sky, your feet twisting and turning to the beat of the music.
You found yourself humming to a familiar tune as the next song began. Leave Before You Love Me by Marshmallow and the Jonas Brothers, one of your favorites. And judging by the noise that came from Mikey, even without looking at him you knew he liked the song as well.
Suddenly, a three fingered hand came into your line of sight. Following the hand back to its owner, Mikey was holding out his hand to you, a clever smile on his face. "Can I have a dance?"
You let out an airy laugh. "I don't dance, Mikey."
"Cmon, it's easy. You don't even have to think about it," he took your hand and began to help you to your feet. "And if it's falling you're concerned about, I'll catch you."
"Promise?" You quizzed playfully. He nodded sincerely add the question.
"Promise."
You bang slowly moving around with Mikey, laughing at the little faults in your steps. For someone who's you assumed never danced with anyone before, he was good. Better than you, at least. He moved confidently, as if practiced.
I see you calling
I didn't wanna leave you like that
It's five in the morning (yeah yeah)
100 on the dash
Mikey spun you into a couple of circles, gently bringing you back in, taking in your giggles. He brought you closer, careful to not step on you as you moved around. You looked up at him as you began to match his pace, suddenly growing more confident.
Cause my wheels are rolling
Ain't taking my foot off the gas
The two of you smiled and began dancing across the rooftop faster, more carefree. Giggles filled the air, the two of you only seeing each other, bodies only feeling each others next move. You were moving in harmony. It looked practiced, felt practiced. You fed off of each other's energy. You were one.
And it only took me one night, to see the end of the line, staring deep in your eyes (eyes)
Any other day, you would've never done it, but it felt right, so you did it. Mikey would catch you if it went wrong, you reminded yourself, and took off across the roof, jumping onto the edge, Mikey right beside you, hand grabbing yours, spinning you into a circle and brining you closer.
It looked like a scene from a romantic movie you had no doubt. Standing on the edge, dancing with the man you were absolutely in love with, you felt so free.
Dancing on the edge 'bout to take it too far
It's messing with my head how I mess with your heart
The two of you danced back and forth on the edge, carelessly, Mikey twirling you, bringing you back in and...
If you wake up in your bed alone in the dark i'm sorry
He brought you into a dip, laughing at the surprised look on your face and the sound you made, your hands grabbing at him until your arms found themselves looped around his neck.
Gotta leave before you love me
As the song stopped, the two of you looked soulfully into each others eyes, even in the silence completely understanding what the other was saying. Mikey breathed slowly. You were in a pant, a smile still lighting up your face the way he adored.
"I'm already in love with you." His confession struck you off guard, but even so, you somehow found a response.
"I'm in love with you too."
Mikey brought you in for a kiss, definitely not the first one you'd had but it still gave you intense butterflies. You both quickly separated when someone cleared their throat, both heads snapping to the middle of the rooftop.
You gasped at the appearance of three other mutant turtles, which you instantly knew was Mikey's brothers even without having met them before. Mikey quickly brought you back to your feet, a nervous laugh leaving him as the two of you stepped back onto the rooftop.
"Oh, hey bro, Whatcha doin' all the way out here?"
"Could ask ya the same thing." The red one, Raph you knew, sarcastically commented. You felt nervous for a whole other reason now.
"Mikey, who is this?" Leo asked, motioning to you. "What is this?" You saw him motion to the entire roof.
"This, this is Y/n, and she's my girlfriend." He took your shoulders and brought you in front of him. His brothers looked somehow even more perplexed than they had been.
"So let me get this straight, you have a girlfriend that you've been sneaking out to see for who knows how long?"
"Yeeaaahhh, about that..." Mikey trailed off before stopping, then shot a look at his brothers. "Wait, how did you even find me?"
"We were just taking a patrol, but-" Donnie began, but Raph cut him off.
"It's pretty hard ta miss a giant mutant turtle tap dancing on the edge of a building, don't ya think?"
Mikey pretended to look offended. "It wasn't tap dancing."
"We will discuss this at the lair, Mikey." Leo stared hard and made a motion for Mikey to come join them. He then looks to you. "I'm sorry for the sudden intrusion, but I must take my brother back home. I'm Leonardo, that is Donatello, and that is Raphael. But I am sure we will be seeing you very soon." He motioned to the brothers as he spoke. "And if we find out that you've told anybody about us, and we will find out, there will be consequences."
You quickly made a zipper motion to your mouth, pretending to walk it and throw away the key. You didn't miss a slight smile coming from Raph, right before he replaced it with a more intimidating look. Even in the dark, you noted the way that Leo's shoulders slightly sacked just by the carefree antics you were displaying.
You waved to your boyfriend.
"See you around?"
He nodded. "See you around, Angel."
