Leo woke up at five a.m. the next day and stretched lazily. Looking next to him, he saw that Raphael was still asleep, a gentle smile on his face. Leo beamed. Raph looks so angelic, so content, so peaceful. This is the side of him no one else gets to see. It's just for me. Raphael stirred and opened his golden eyes. "Ya see somethin' ya like, Fearless?" he said huskily.
"Yes, you. Come here, tiger."
"Ya don't need to ask, twice," Raphael said, moving closer and pulling him in for a long, deep kiss. "So ya feeling okay today?" Raphael asked, when they'd pulled apart.
"Yeah, I'm good right now. Hey, Raph, you know what today is?"
"Course I do. It's the twenty-eighth of May."
"Oh," Leo said in disappointment, hurt flickering across his face.
Raphael couldn't play dumb any longer seeing Leo's expression. He hated causing him pain. "Our Fifth Wedding Anniversary."
"You did remember?"
"How could I forget, Leo? That's in the top three most important days of my life."
"And the other two?"
"The day we first told each other how we felt and when the kids were born. All days involving you. I got something special for you. Wait here." Raphael bent down and kissed his beak. "I hope ya like it." He got up, rummaged in his closet and came back with a huge, wooden box. "This is for ya," he said shyly.
Leo looked at the box on which was engraved Leo and Raph's Keepsake box. "This is ta keep our memories in it. Ya know, of the kids, us, whatever ya like."
"I LOVE it," Leo said, his heart overflowing with love for his mate. "You made this?"
"Don't look so surprised, Leo, I made the babies' cribs and all. Don ain't the only one who can make things," Raphael said almost defensively.
"Raph, no, I didn't mean anything. I love it. It's beautiful. Thank you."
"Open it."
"Inside was a photo of them taken on their engagement evening. Hands wrapped around each other's waists, gazing into each other's eyes. "Mikey took that," Raphael said. "Should have smacked 'im. He knows I hate photos, but truthfully, I love that photo. Ya look so handsome. Here's one of me pregnant with the twins. I look like a damn beach ball. But I thought ya'd like it."
"No, Raph, you look beautiful. So happy, so content."
Raphael blushed. "Can't ya say sexy? It's more manly."
"Oh, stop. You are beautiful to me, Raph. Everything about you."
Raphael blushed harder. "And this one's of us cutting the wedding cake, Leo. That was some cake, wasn't it? Triple Chocolate Irish cream cheesecake and a tower of red and blue macaroons."
"April really outdid herself. It was a fantastic day. Every day is amazing. Being with you."
"That's all I got for now. We can add ta it."
"We will. I love you, Raph." Leo said, leaning in and kissing him deeply.
When they'd pulled apart, Raphael linked his fingers with Leo's and smiled down at the golden rings they wore on their middle fingers customized with a little blue katana and red sai in the centre of them. Neither of them had taken them off since the wedding, other than when in battle. "I have something for you too," Leo said. He got up, reached into his dresser and returned with a small, gift wrapped box. "Open it, Raph." Raphael opened the box and took out a silver heart-shaped locket. "Look inside, Raph."
When Raphael did, his breath caught and he blinked back tears. Leo had a photo of them on their wedding day on the one side and on the other side a photo of them on their honeymoon in Fiji, sitting on the veranda of their secluded beach villa. "I took that selfie," Raphael said. "Oh, Leo. This is awesome. Now I can keep you with me all the time."
"Let me help you put it on," Leo said. "There," he continued, when the locket was around Raphael's neck. "All done."
Raphael fingered the necklace and a few tears ran down his cheeks, unable to contain his emotion. "I'll never take it off, Leo."
Leo smiled and gently thumbed his tears away. "Happy Fifth Anniversary, Raph."
"Happy Fifth Anniversary, Leo," Raphael said, pulling him close for a passionate kiss.
A baby squawked. "Reality," Raphael grumbled, frowning. "Ya have bad timing, squirt."
"Want me to go?" Leo asked.
"No. I got it."
Raphael turned his attention to the crib. Both twins were awake and were flailing their little limbs around. Raphael bent down. Pride shone in his face, as he picked up his precious babies and cradled them to his chest. "Mornin' boys. Time ta change ya." Raphael placed them on the changing mat, changed them and handed them to Leo. "I'll be back with the formula in a few minutes, Leo," he said, bending down and kissing his cheek.
Leo beamed at his babies. "Aren't you two the sweetest, most adorable boys?" he cooed, kissing their chubby cheeks. Daddy and I love you very much. Did I tell you about the time Daddy and I told each other how we felt?"
FLASHBACK FIVE YEARS EARLIER, JANUARY 2
"Leo, stop bitchin' like a mother hen," Raphael said angrily. "I told ya I just wanted ta take the bike out for a bit."
"But it's storming and snowing out there, Raph. The weather bureau said we should stay indoors."
"I'll be fine. Let me go."
"No, Raph. What if something happens to you?"
Raphael snorted derisively. "Why would ya care? Ya'd think ya'd be happy anyway if somethin' did, seeing as I'm such a liability and concern ta ya."
"That's not true, Raphael. You're my brother and I love you. I don't consider you a liability."
"Move out the damn way, Leo."
"I forbid you to go."
Raphael laughed. "Forbid me? I ain't twelve anymore, Leo, in case ya forgotten. Ya can't do that."
"No, but ya act like it," Leo hissed. "Challenging me, taunting me. Why do you have to be so damn infuriating? No one else gives shit like you do."
"Yer halo's about to burst, Splinter junior. Ya said a swear word. Now fuck off, Leo, and let me pass."
"No," Leo said, stepping closer, so that his beak was close to Raphael's. "You aren't going anywhere." Raphael's golden eyes blazed, but before he could comment, Leo pushed him back against the wall, pinning him. Then he pressed his mouth against Raphael's. Stunned, Raphael's golden eyes went wide and he tried to move, but Leo held on tightly, and soon Raphael was kissing him back. They came up for air a while later, both panting. "What the hell was that?" Raphael demanded.
"You're not a liability to me, Raph. I love you and not just as a brother. You mean the world to me and I'd be lost without you."
"Is this some sick game of yers, Leo, ta mess with me?"
Leo shook his head. "No. I love you, Raph, but if you don't feel the same, I'll understand."
"No, I don't know what ta think. I need some time ta digest this, Leo. Give me some space, okay?"
"Take all the time you need."
Raphael hadn't gone out that night, but had gone to bed. For six days, Raphael and Leo had the barest minimum of contact, while the hothead worked out his feelings. On the evening of the eighth of January, Leo was meditating in his room, when there was a knock at his door. "It's Raph," Raphael said.
"Come in."
Raphael entered and sucked in a deep breath. Then almost shyly, he said, "I wanted ta talk 'bout the other day."
"Have a seat," Leo said, patting the meditation mat.
Raphael sat down and rubbed the back of his head nervously. "I ain't good with feelings, Leo. I'm better with actions than words, but I want ta say this. I've always wanted someone ta love me. Never thought I'd have it happen. Accepted it never would. I mean, how could anyone love a freak like me?"
"You're amazing, Raph. I wish you could see it."
"Let me finish. Truth is, Leo, I love ya too. I've always loved ya, but I never thought ya felt the same, so I buried myself in fightin', trainin', whatever I could ta stop thinkin' of ya. But I know since ya kissed me, I've never stopped lovin' ya. But I need ta ask. Is this a one-shot thing, a fling, what?"
Leo looked at his passionate brother. "I don't want a fling, Raphael. You deserve better than that. I want to see where this can go."
"I do, too," Raphael said shyly. "How do ya want me ta be?"
"Yourself. You don't need to change, Raph. I love you just as you are."
Raphael smiled. "Okay then. Are we dating then and you're my boyfriend?"
"I have to ask this first. Raphael, will you go out with me?"
"Of course I will."
"Then we're boyfriends."
"When will we tell the others? What if they don't approve?"
"Raph, no matter what happens, I will always love you and we'll be together. I'll make sure of that."
"Okay. So what happens now?"
"This," Leo said, pulling him close and kissing him gently on his cheeks, eyelids, jaw, then finally his mouth. Raphael blushed, but kissed him back. The kissing heated up, tongues battling for dominance, as they groped each other. With one hand, Leo reached between Raphael's legs and gently pinched his tail. Raphael pulled back in surprise and blushed. "Leo, I ain't ready for that."
"I'm sorry, Raph. I didn't mean to upset you."
"It's fine, but this is new ta me. I need time for that. I want to have sex with ya, but not now."
"We have all the time in the world, Raph. Take your time. I'll wait as long as you need."
They'd kissed again. Then Raphael had left and gone to bed.
"Two days later, they'd told their family. Nervous and trembling in Splinter's Dojo, they'd been so sure that he'd disown them. But instead he'd given them their blessing. Later that day, they'd gone on their first date.
BACK IN THE PRESENT.
Raphael returned to the bedroom, bringing two bottles. "Earth ta Leo," Raphael said, noticing his dreamy expression. "Ya okay?"
"I was thinking about the time we confessed our feelings for one another and I told the twins."
"Aw, Leo, don't scar them like that," Raphael chided, sitting down and handing Raph jr to Leo. "They're too young ta hear that."
"Relax. I didn't tell them about our first time. That's next time."
Raphael chuckled and fed Troy his bottle. When the twins had finished feeding, he and Leo placed them in the crib and went to breakfast.
Mikey and Don were at the kitchen table and they chatted for a while. Then Don took Raph and Leo to his lab. Raphael stood, with his arms crossed over his plastron. "Be careful with him, Don," he said. "If ya hurt him, I'll..."
Don rolled his eyes. "Raph, I know what I'm doing. I've been looking after you guys for years. Lie back on this bed and let me take a look at you, Leo."
Leo did as he was told while Don examined him and took a sample of blood which he placed in a test tube. "I'll ask April to ask her dad to run the blood test," Don said. "We should have results in a few days."
"Cool. Finished then?" Raphael asked.
"Yes. Happy Anniversary, guys," Don said. "Enjoy the rest of the day."
"Thanks," Raphael and Leo said in unison, staring into each other's eyes.
The happy couple spent the rest of their day with their treasured children. Later after the kids were asleep and they were watching TV, Leo whispered into Raphael's ear slits and grabbed his hand. "Let's go celebrate our Anniversary some more," Leo said.
Raphael grinned and they went to the bedroom.
Afterwards, basking in the afterglow, Leo stroked Raphael's cheek and said, "You can say what you want, Raph, but you'll always be beautiful to me."
"Ugh, Leo. Don't."
"You are. And those eyes of yours shine as brightly as the stars in the sky."
"Leo," Raphael growled, tossing a pillow at him. "Shut up."
His mate only laughed. "And that smile of yours is..."
Leo never got to finish his sentence, because Raphael smashed his mouth onto his in a searing kiss. Leo breathed his musky scent which never failed to drive him wild.
"Up for round two?" Raphael said huskily, pulling away gently.
"Always."
When they'd climaxed, Raphael quickly dropped off to sleep, his head resting on Leo's plastron. This has been the best Anniversary, Leo thought. And Raph and I have so many more to come. How can we top off this year? An idea came to him. He smiled, closed his eyes and was soon asleep, one hand on Raphael's plastron.
