Chapter Text
The weatherman said today was going to be a scorcher. You sat at your desk hoping he was just exaggerating. Looking out the window of your classroom, your hopes were crushed. Out the window sat a row of singed pigeons slightly smoking...as if they were being cooked.
You inwardly groaned while remembering your mom wasn't going to be able to pick you up from school today. She was out of town on a business trip and wouldn't be back until next week. Walking home was your only option.
The last bell of the day rang and thus signified your doom; you were going to die of heat exhaustion. You gathered your school supplies and slowly made your way out of the school attempting to stall for time.
~Time skip because you basically whined all the way home T_T
When you finally stumbled into your apartment you immediately dropped all your things and stripped off all of your clothes. The apartment's AC unit was broken and the repairman wasn't coming to fix it until your mom came home from her trip. It was just too hot for clothes and it's not like there was anyone was going to see you because no one else lived with you and your mom. You hopped into the bathroom and took a cold shower to cool you off.
During your shower you thought about all the places you could go to stay cool on such a hot day. Staying here was just out of the question. By the time you finished your shower, you had made up your mind and decided to go see your favorite kitty ever: Ice Cream Kitty!! She would have something yummy and chilled to snack on. You could also hang with the guys and maybe even start a water balloon fight with Mikey.
You got dressed in shorty shorts and a tank top (not thinking about what a bunch of teenage guys would be thinking with you showing more skin than usual) because it was just too hot for your normal attire. Which is a hoodie and jeans. After packing an emergency stay overnight bag, you messaged the guys letting them know you were coming over for a visit, locked up your apartment and made your way to the turtles lair.
~Time skip
When you finally entered the lair you were surprised to find the living room empty. Normally when you told them you were on your way, they would wait for you in the living room. You made your way to the dojo and it was also empty.
Hoping Mikey wasn't pranking you, "Mikey? Hello guys? It's me! Where are you guys?!" you called out.
...
You creeped into the kitchen assuming they were going to jump out and scare you. You checked to see if the coast was clear before cautiously opening the freezer. You were relieved to find Ice Cream Kitty being adorable as usual.
"Hello wittle baby," you cooed and pet her strawberry flavored head.
"Meow," she greeted while nuzzling into your hand.
"Where is everyone?" you questioned.
"Leo took the team topside to work on stealth in the daylight."
You gasped, "Ice Cream Kitty! When did you learn to talk?!"
"It's me ding dong, the cat can't talk."
Realizing it was Raphael you felt your face heat up from embarrassment.
"Oh, hai Raph," you turn your head to look over your shoulder and see him with a slightly annoyed look on his face.
You noticed his eyes wandering up and down your figure. You never showed off this much skin.
Feeling self-conscious you give Raph a shy smile and turn back around to face Ice Cream Kitty. Letting the cold air from the freezer cool your pink cheeks.
"I guess that's why no one messaged me back...When will they be back and how come you aren't with them?" you asked attempting to break the awkward silence and because curiosity is getting the best of you. Although, you knew it probably had something to do with Leo and Raph bickering again.
"I did go with them. Lamenardo sent me home 'cause I wasn't followin' orders or whatever," he mumbled the last part under his breath.
"That sounds about right," you giggled as Ice Cream Kitty handed you a green Popsicle on a stick. "You want one too?"
"Nah, could you get me a Ramune?"
"Sure thing Raph. Bai Ice Cream Kitty!" you say as you close the freezer door and open the refrigerator.
Raph eyes you as you bend over to get his drink. He raises an eye ridge and slightly smirks enjoying the view.
Reaching to the back of the fridge you pull out a strawberry flavored Ramune.
"Here ya go~" you sand handing it to him.
"Thanks [Y/N]" he smirks again as you lightly kick the fridge door closed.
"Looks like it's just you and me tonight...or at least until your brothers return"
You skipped over to the living room with Raph following you. You plop down on the couch and Raph sits in the bean bag chair. He watches you open your popsicle and pull it out.
(Raphael's POV because this is what we all came here for am I right?)
I popped the cap of my Ramune and looked over at [Y/N].
She giggled and held up her popsicle, "Cheers!"
I rolled my eyes and groaned, "It's gonna be a long night."
I took a sip and watched [Y/N] take the first lick of her popsicle. She licked from the base of the popsicle to the tip, then proceeded to swirl her tongue around the tip.
"Mmmm sooo~ good," she murmured.
I almost did a spit take, "*cough cough* uh...wanna watch something?" I flip on the TV before she can answer.
"Sure, also do you think it would be alright if I crashed here tonight? The AC is busted at my apartment and it's really hot over there."
An image of her curled up on my bed made its way into my head. I'm sure I could make things hot over here too.
