Stitches (TMNT)

#1

AN- welcome to the dark side of the Internet! I wanted to try writing something dark cause why not.

( TMNT )

God....

There was a moment, that day where he couldn't fully comprehend what he was truly saying, every moment battered against his skull, his pulsating headache being bared with obnoxious laughter sent him into a rage..

Oh dear god..

The bold, rash, venomous words he spat out of irritation, the way his gripped fists trembled and his voice gravitated- in return he got the soulful face of a heart broken boy that stared right back at him

What drove him to do something so fucking disgusting..

It was just a joke

Oh god, how he wished he kept his own mouth shut

"Mikey!" He remembered yanking his body off the couch to glare at him "Would you just shut up already!? God, I wish I could sew your mouth shut!"

How he wished ....

**************************

Mikey stayed up that night.

Replaying Raphael's exact words to him over and over again, till the sentence had little to no meaning.

"Mikey! Would shut up already!? God, I wish I could sew your mouth shut!"

Mikey hugged his middle, brushing his shell against the sweet coldness of his bedroom wall, he hummed, rocking slightly back and forth.

Had raph really meant that?

Mike knew he talked a lot, maybe even too much- but that was just because he had so much to say, no lock on his brain, everything from skateboarding tricks to amazing pizza recipes to conspiracy theorys on mutant pizza- in his mind, was okay to say

Aparently not

They were his brothers, he reasons, they had to listen to him, no matter how stupid his idea's were! That's always the impression he got from being the youngest.

Leo's always listened to cause he's the leader and he's gotta, y'know- lead

Donnie's listened to cause he's the smart one

And Raph... well Raph's to loud not to listen to him.

Why had raph suggested he'd shut up?

No wait .........

Why had raph suggested that he'd sew his mouth shut?

What was wrong with his mouth?

Did he really talk too much?

Did raph really mean that?

Did his big brother really want him to shut up? To sew his mouth shut? To never speak again?

The turtle stood up, the silky bed sheets rolling off his shoulders.

Michelangelo gave a little smile..

He had been always trying to impress his big Bro whether it meant copying his rough housing ( even just a little ) or making fun of donnies crush on April

Just to get him to smile.....

To make him happy.......

To make raph call him his ' baby brother '

Though it wasn't just raph....

He wanted to great in front of all his family..... April and Casey included
