Work Text:
It was another night, the same as the rest. The boy (turtle) genius Donatello was busy working on his latest invention that would revolutionize the mutant human world. When suddenly the world’s most ugliest, vilest, annoyingest, (boy-that-makes-Donnie’s-heart-skip-a-beatest), human walks in
“Donnieeeeee” he screeched, cradling the side of his face that was being slowly colored purple
Donnie sighed tiredly, he was stolen from his work /again/ for the fifth time this week all because Casey-fricking-Jones can’t not get into a fight at school
Though something seemed different this time
Casey was fumbling back and forth, arms swaying lazily, shoulders hunched, mouth agape, like he’s seeing through it, eyes very red and the prevalent smell of booze
Was Casey drinking?
Donnie rushed over to his side, placing on hand on the human’s back and another taking his gloves hand in his and guiding him over to the make-shift med-bay (that Raph had ruggedly set up just for Casey’s dumbass) to have him lay down on the bed
Casey groaned, snot was coming out of his nose
Stupid Casey and his stupid ideas. He probably went to a stupid highschool party where they snuck in booze and beer and decided it was a great idea to have a drinking game. Something lead to another and Casey was probably in a fight like the idiot he was
“Casey, what happened?”
The boy just stared up at his face, giggling when he saw how worried he was. The giggle turned into a bird-like screeching which hurt Donnie’s ears.
He’s definitely drunk, how long has he been like this?
Well if he was able to walk here, he must be either really lucky, or the drunkenness is starting to wear off. It’s best to keep a close watch
And watch Donnie, did. Like a hawk
Casey tossed and turned, speaking some gibberish only he could understand.
Donnie’s gaze never left
Casey looked at him, square in the face
His still drunk self had his face soften
“Wow”
“Hm?” his brothers never got drunk, what was he to do?
“Come hereeee” he slurred
And come there the purple idiot did, standing by Casey who was laying down
“Closer”
Moved closer, looking down at the human, who put his arms up and grabbed the scientist’s face
“Wow, wow, wow”
“What?”
“You’re eyes”
“What about them?”
“So pretty”
“Oh”
Excuse me, pretty?? Not demonic or satanic or creepy??
The turtle has been called many things, his eyes specially (from his brothers poking fun and humans being human and thinking he’s from the devil or hell or a demon and stuff) but pretty? That one’s not on the roster
“Yeah, your eyes are like rubies… geee”
Donnie’s eyes were filled with anxiety, fear, hope, adoration, all at once
“That’s corny though, huh?” the human chuckled
“N-no, not at all. Anyone would like it. Raph would took if you said his eyes looked like emeralds” Donnie said sheepishly
Casey thought for a minute
“Nah, only yours have a special shine to them”
Donnie felt the air get trapped in his throat, him, his face, being cradled by a man who he is annoyed with (and enchanted by). Softly gazing into his eyes, being complimented
His knees were weak, he had only ever thought about this in the lonely hours of the night or whenever Mikey made him watch Disney Princess movies.
Being loved so gently and so softly, he could-
NO NO NO this is all wrong, for starters, Casey is for 1, drunk and 2, Really does Donnie think that anyone, let alone a human could ever love hi-
Casey tries to reel in Donnie’s face closer to his, Donnie stops it by putting his hands over the ones cradling his face
“Casey stop, you’re drunk”
“Please”
“No, you’re drunk, you’re going to regret this when you’re sober”
Casey’s left hand moved, this index finger glazed Donnie’s lips as Casey shushed him
“Please, D. I really, really want to.”
‘He’s playing games, they all do’ screamed Donnie’s subconscious
“What exactly do you want?”
“Kissy”
“No, Casey-”
“Please, just one”
Obviously, this is a losing battle
“Fine, but only one”
“What if i want two”
“No, Casey, one and only one”
“But-”
“Take it or leave it final offer”
Casey frowned
“Two please?”
Donnie sighed in annoyance
“Fine, but that's it”
Casey grinned, pulling Donnie’s face closer and closer into somewhat of a spiderman kiss
Despite Casey’s oh so chapped lips and Donnie’s well, lack of lips. The kiss was soft, warm, and gentle. It was nice. A quick kiss nothing more, Donnie pulled back, Casey’s hands fell off his face
“One more” Casey slurred with a smile
Donnie rolled his eyes, trying to hide his- WHAT NO HE WASN’T BLUSHING, NO WHAT PFFT NEVER
This time Casey met Donnie’s lips, again a soft sweet kiss until Casey turned his head to try and get a better position. Donnie was shocked at his, his brain screamed to stop. His heart said to keep going
Mind over matter
Donnie pulled back
“Casey- enough-” He was out of breath, “You’re drunk, you’ll forget this, when you’re sober” Donnie stormed back to where he was working initially
He wanted to cry, why why why why why, he knew that Casey was drunk, he knew that it clouded Casey’s judgment, why did he go through with it anyway?
“Donnieeeee, Commeee bacckkkkk”
He can’t deal with this, he’s going to bed. Raph can watch Casey
/////////////////////////
Donnie for once, actually went to bed at an alright-ish time. No thanks to Casey or Raph who once together would never shut up (especially not when Casey was drunk, perfect time for black mail). But he did manage to get an alright amount of sleep before waking up to the sound of Mikey calling them all for breakfast. The sewers were cold, like always, Donnie got out of bed reluctantly, draping his favorite blanket over his shoulders and making his way to the kitchen.
His sister, Leo to the side of his older sister, Karai. Talking about something or another, it was early Donnie’s ears didn't work. Raph, sitting next to Casey who is sitting next to Mikey, who was sitting next to April. Donnie wedged himself between his older younger sister and his older brother, blinking trying to get the sleep out of his eyes. The table was loud, go figure with how many people were sitting all at the same time. Mikey made his favorite, blueberry pancakes, eggs over-easy and some orange juice to wash it down. The sounds all felt like waves that kept crashing against each other, looking around he saw the faces of his family, enjoying eachothers company eating. Yet one pair of eyes was trying to hide his glances at him. Casey Jones’.
Donnie was a quick eater, he was efficient. He washed his plate, before quietly excusing himself from the table. God it was early (bro it's like 10) he should get more sleep.
His plan was interrupted by a warm tapping hand on his shoulder.
Low and behold, Casey Jones wearing a sheepish smile and a blush of embarrassment? That's a first
“Hey, D. I- uhm”
Damn and Donnie had just forgotten what happened too
“I’m sorry about the thing- uhm” Donnie spoke
“What- No! No, not that- I mean, no. Let me start over” The human gathered his thoughts “Don’t be sorry, oh god how do I make this sound not, uh weird?”
Donnie arched a brow
“It’s okay, because I really wanted to kiss you anyway” Casey said, nervously, blushing
Donnie’s eyes widened, yeah no he wasn’t expecting that
“Y-yeah, i remember everything… I did want to kiss you, ya’know”
“I- oh” Donnie stammered
Casey put his hands up clutching his face “Sorryyy!! Was that weird?” he groaned
“Hah- uh no not really?” Donnie looked at the ground “I liked it”
Donnie looked back up and Casey was star-struck
“Oh- oh, oh, oh wow”
“What?” Donnie was now flustered
“I- uhm- uh” Casey was once again struggling to find his words
“Want to do it again?” Casey blurted out
Donnie was now the one star-struck
“I- uh- okay”
Casey put his hands on the sides of Donnie's face, inching them closer, and closer and closer until their lips met and melted in a soft kiss. It only lasted a few seconds, but it was a few seconds of heaven
They were both love-struck, then Donnie broke their silence
“Uhm, thanks for that. I’m a bit tired still, I’m going to go back to bed now”
Casey removed his hands from Donnie’s face.
“Oh, okay, okay then, uh have a good sleep” he said bashfully
Donnie chuckled “Thanks, I will, see you in a few hours”
“Yeah, see you in a few”
Donnie walked over to his room, closing his door, flopping down on his bed as he entered.
Yeah no, he’s definitely going to need a long sleep

Extra:
“Coast is clear, the lovebirds are gone. Everyone check it” Raph whipped out his phone, playing a video of a drunk Casey lying on the makeshift med-bay bed
Raph’s voice rang through the video “ Oh yeah, what happened? ”
Video casey replied “ I kiss your brother~” teasingly
“Huh, is that so?”
“Yeah, and his super cute red eyes lit up. He’s amazing, so cute, smart, he’s just mm”
“Uhuh, yeah, of course Casey”
“Raphie, would you let me marry your brother?”
“I think you’re thinking a bit too far ahead for that one, shit head”
“Nooooo, i’ll get him a ruby ring so it can match his eyes”
“You’re stupid, you think he’s going to marry your ugly mug?”
“Mmmm but i love Donnie”
“You love Donnie?”
“Yessss, i love love love love love Donnieeeeeee~”
“What the hell are you guys watching??”
