Trust (Rottmnt Mikey x GN Foot Recruit Reader)

Chapter 5: Home

3rd person POV 

You just woke up to see Mikey sleeping right next to you, his head on yours. You looked around it was already night. How did I sleep for that long int he afternoon, you thought. Then you looked at the turtle in orange and blushed. 

You realized you had he had put a blanket on you so you would be comfortable. That's sweet, you thought. You slowly got up and moved his over so he would fall over and wake up. You thought that now that everyone is winding down for bed nobody would notice you were gone. 

You quickly check where they all were to make sure they were occupied. You looked into Donnie's lab to see him focusing on his work. You left unnoticed and headed to find Leo. "He'll be in there for a while." You thought. 

Leo was in his room, he was reading his comics and didn't even notice you were there looking though the curtains. You made your way over to Raph to see him training unlike everyone else.

You checked one more time to see Mikey was still asleep, and he was, but you couldn't help but feel sad as you looked at his sleeping face. Sure they were forcing you to stay here for not very unreasonable reasons, but you couldn't help but think that he was the only person who has ever really been nice to you.

You made your way over to the ladder and hesitantly climbed it. You lifted the sewer cover and climbed up the fire escape on the side of an apartment building. Once you got up you looked out at New York. You took a few deep breaths and started jumping from building to building. 

You stopped once you realized what alley way you were at. You climbed down the fire escape and walked over to a little tent made out of sticks and dirty old blankets. The place had some battery powered fairy lights that never seemed to stay on and a mini shelf with 3 old books on it.

In the corner you could see the beanbag you would sleep in every night and the small blanket that was clean or warm, that you would cuddle up with too. You sighed remembering the place that you call home. You hated it but it was your home whether you liked it or not. 

You looked at the little tent for a little longer. How come this place doesn't feel like home anymore? Do I really want to stay with the turtles? 

Lots of thought were going through your head. I can always go back and if I don't like it there I can escape again, you thought. If I go back they might not even notice I was gone.

You decided to go back to the turtles. Yeah it was the sewers and nobody really liked you except for Mikey but it was better than the streets. You started climbing back up the fire escape and headed to the sewers.

Donnie's POV 

I was making a few upgrades to Sheldon when I started to lose my train of thought. I could figure out the programming and it was driving me crazy. I was tired and I needed to go get some coffee. So I left my lab to make some. 

When I left the brightness caught me off guard sense I've been in the dark so long sure it was night but it was still way brighter.

I was headed to the kitchen when I heard the manhole cover open. I hid because I didn't know who it was. I don't think anyone said they were going on patrol or anything like that. 

Then I saw Y/N climb down the ladder. Where did they go? I thought. And why did they come back? They headed to Mikey's room and went in. The second they did I went over to Raph's room to tell him what I saw. I entered his room, pulling the curtain.

Y/N's POV

I walked into Mikey's room to see him there drawing on the floor. "Whatcha doing?" I asked. "Just drawing. Where did you go?" "What do you mean where did I go?" I responded. 

"You left the sewers when you woke up." He stated as you looked surprised.

"How did you-"

"I woke up when you moved me, so I wouldn't fall over."

"But I checked again to make sure you didn't wake up."

"I wasn't really asleep. I woke up and noticed you were checking on everyone else which I thought was weird. So I rushed back to the couch pretended to be asleep and saw you leave." He said. You looked stunned and then confused.

"How come you didn't follow me?" You said.

"I trust you. Simple as that." He said happily. 

"But how do you know you can trust me? I was planning to leave and escape. How-" You were cut off.

"You came back didn't you?" 

"Why?" You said.

"What do you mean why?" 

"Why do you trust me? You barely know me." 

"It doesn't feel that way. It feels like I've known you my entire life." You sat down on the floor in front of him blushing a little. Then you realized he was blushing too, looking away from you.

"Yeah" you said quietly. He looked at you and noticed you were blushing too, just like him. 

Just then you heard the curtain open and you both are wide eyed. Donnie was there with Raph. "We need to talk Mikey." Donnie said in a sturn voice. "Sure what's up?" He replied. "Alone." Raph said. 

You noticed that was you're que to leave.
