Two months. It had been two months since Donatello and Tamsin had gotten married, and things were going smoothly. It was everything perfect- or at least as perfect as they could get in a Kraang infested world.
It was a normal day, like many of the others in those two months, Tamsin was in their bedroom reading some dusty book Draxum had lent her, a cup of some warm beverage in hand.
On the other side of her was an old computer Donnie had somehow kickstarted, a few things lit up on the screen she was supposed to watch (Donnies rules.)
While she was doing these 'laboring chores,' Donnie was off somewhere with the rest of the brothers, fending off some Kraang before they found the base.
Its funny, sometimes when such a repetitive routine was drilled into your brain, your forgot about the danger outside, the chance something could ruin your little everyday loophole in a matter of seconds.
Tamsins loophole was exactly this: Donnie leaves, she and April watch over the rebellion base. Donnie comes back. Repeat.
Sure, her repetitive days were simple, but she'd never change it for the world, it was just the normal thing she could have in a not-so-normal life.
Until it happened.
As soon as she heard the rushing sound of a portal opening, and Leo shouting for help her heart dropped into the pit of her stomach.
She scrambled up to her feet quickly, not bothering to grab shoes or anything else to add to her appearance. It seemed she wasn't the only one who was on her feet in that moment, as she turned the corner April was right next to her, following the sound of ruckus.
The sight was enough for her to feel her entire world fall apart. Leo and Mikey both had Donnies arms over their shoulders, helping him stay upright. Donnie's overall appearance was a mess, his pants were ripped all the way up to his knees and his jacket was nothing but tangled strands. His tech was destroyed and his visor was cracked, crooked on his snout.
Krang blood and his own was littered on his body, oozing from the horrible gashes along his arms, legs, and who knew where else.
It was obvious on Donnie's face he despised the help from his brothers in this moment, doing everything he could to push himself up and walk without their help- but to no avail as they refused to move.
"Leo-what happened!?" Tamsin’s gasp cut through the air as she hurried over to Mikeys side, reaching out to try and touch Donnie- any part of him, like if this was even real, or some sick nightmare her brain plagued her with.
"Krang ambush. We don't have time to talk- please help us out here." Leo sputtered out quick, hurrying him to Donnie's lab where there had to be some sort of medical items to use.
"Okay, I can handle this, set him down." Tamsin ordered, she herself trying to calm down, placing a hand to her chest to relax her breathing. Mikey and Leo obliged, giving a small noise of understanment and hurrying over to his work table- Leo shoving away any tools or gadgets that Donnie had yet to finish.
This made the scientist huff in protest, looking between his brothers offended. "Exscuse me, if those are damaged you're paying-" He was cut off when he hissed in pain, gritting his teeth while being carefully placed on the table.
"Sorry, Don, right now isn't the time to throw a hissy fit." Leo spoke, trying to lighten up the dread hanging over everything.
"I'm gonna need some room to work," Tamsin walked over, hands held in a position in front of her implying she had just washed her hands and they were possibly still a but wet.
She stared at Leo and Mikey for a moment, both of them looking back a but confused. She huffed out a sigh, ushering them to the door. "Out! Need to space!" She ordered.
That sent Mikey and Leo up, quickly muttering apologize before giving their brother one more worried look, and disappearing, closing the automatic door with a click behind them.
As soon as they had left, Tamsin was to Donnie's side, a rag and a few things already prepared. "I don't know what happened but you're telling me as soon as thus is over with."
There was a shake in her stern voice she tried so desperately to hide- but Donnie stayed quiet, hunched over on the work table with his hand resting on his knee to balance his chin.
She took the arm that wasn't currently busy, placing the rag to the cuts on it. No response, no flinch, nothing. So she took it as a sign to continue working, cleaning out the dry blood and dirt from it, examining her work.
The cycle repeated more and more, and it caused Tamsin to notice the way Donnies knee bobbed up and down anxiously while staring dead-eye straight, not sparing even a glance her way.
She paused, holding him by his forearm while she held the rag to a cut, looking at him. He still wasn't paying much attention, which told her he was thinking-or she thought he was.
"... Donnie?" She asked quietly, almost shy like if she said anything he'd just break. His gaze instantly snapped to her, his eyes widening slightly as a way of asking what's up.
"You're quiet... It's worrying me." She stated plainly, removing the rag to check the cut. "Is there any other injury you're not telling Mr about?"
Oh the look of surprise on Donnies face. She found out. Of course it was obvious, how was he so foolish? He was never able to hide or lie his way through things bothering him-or even just trying to be undercover on a mission.
He removed his hand from his face, trying to sit up in discomfort, locking his lips to try and formulate the right words, but nothing seemed to be coming out.
The stinging. He hated the stinging. The way it burned whenever his torn coat rubbed against it or when he breathed the way it seemed his skin just tore farther down. He couldn't fight it, he needed to tell someone.
"Donnie," her warm hand was placed to the side of his face, moving it to look at her. All he saw was concern and love, it cause that funny little flutter in his chest. "What's wrong?"
He couldn't lie to her, she didn't deserve such treatment when she was only try to help. "Shell- it got to my shell. The damn thing tore my battleshell clean off."
As soon as the words left his mouth his demeanor almost changed- it was so unnatural to see the fear on his face, he was always so cool. Sure, he got surprised or alarmed, but this was different. It scared Tamsin.
"Why didn't you tell me?" She whispered harshly, standing up and rushing to be behind him.
She went to hurriedly take the jacket off, but Donnie visibly flinched away, a sharp inhale escaping his lips.
Her hands were mere inches away from his jacket. She could easily ignore this and pull the jacket off, fixing the wound on his shell before it was worse... But she didn't.
Imstead, she slowly pulled her hands waway, falling into her lap as she stared at her feet guiltily.
"R... Right, I forgot. I'm sorry, Don." She couldn't see his face, but she could tell he relaxed, sensing she wasn't close to touching his shell anymore.
Tamsin had never seen Donnie without his battleshell-only once and that was when he was protecting Leo from a Krang attack and his shell was shattered on impact- the same day Leo had also lost his arm. Even if they shared a room together Donnie was always busy working in his lab- so if he did take his battleshell off she'd never see it due to being asleep.
"Im..I'm sorry. I don't think I'm ready." Donnie responded, the sound of his leather jacket squeaking as he hugged himself, hands gripping his arms tightly.
Donnie wasnt... exactly self conscious, he was more paranoid- he had always been with his softshell and it had it had only gotten worse with time during the dangers of Krang.
And now married to Tamsin he found it difficult to even take the thing of without feeling he wasn't providing her enough protection.
"I feel... I'm vulnerable. If I'm not in my shell, I feel as if I couldn't protect you."
The words allowed Tamsin to let sympathetic gaze fall onto her husband. He assumed her silence meant he could continue, glancing back at her and sighing, turning back.
"It's also the reason I haven't..." He stopped himself, suddenly hunching over a bit.
"Haven't what, Donnie?" Tamsin urged, but she tried to be patient as to not pry his kept in issues out of him.
"Made love to you."
"O-oh!" That caught her off guard a bit, blinking stupidly, Tamsin felt a little hot in the face after that statement, the silence not so peaceful anymore, more awkward.
It is true- they hadn't exactly done anything close to intercourse after they were married, but it didn't of course bother Tamsin, given the fact Donnie wasn't a touchy Feely person all that much- so she had gotten used to physical affection being rare or whenever Donnie felt ready for it.
"Well, I'm a little upset you didn't talk to me about this bothering you- and it's been brought up over you being injured," Tamsin said finally a but if a scolding tone in her voice, making Donnie stare at the ground embarrassed.
"Yeah, I know-"
"But, nonetheless, if you're not ready for me to see you in that state, I'll wait. Being married is all about patience, and when you're ready." Tamsin pulled herself away from his back, placing herself in front of him with her arms folded.
She tried to hold back a laugh-he looked like a toddler being told off- husband head down and she could have sworn there was a small pout of his lips.
He shifted his gaze to look up at her a bit brows creased together and giving him a sad gleam in his eyes- it broke her heart.
"Don, don't look at me like that," she cooed, cupping his face as a small, sad laugh escaped her lips. "You have no reason to be guitly, this is about you and your choice."
Donnie nodded slowly, closing his eyes while leaning into her warm touch, allowing himself to exhale the tight weight on his chest, anxiety melting away.
"Okay, now that's taken care of, I'm going to leave it to you." She stood up, removing her hands away-much to Donnies dismay, who huffed a bit in dissatisfaction.
She grabbed the bloody rag, leaving Donnies side and dipping it into the warm water bucket on the floor. Unaware of Donnie watching her the whole time.
"I'll get Mikey to come help you, since he's usually helping out with your shell, right? It will take me a bit but-"
'Flap.'
The sound of a jacket hitting the floor echoed through the lab, making Tamsin freeze, the only sound now was the water soaking the rag dripping back into the bucket- that and her heartbeats that sounded way too loud for comfort.
She slowly crazed her neck toward where Donnie had sat.
Back turned, still sitting hunched over, his shell showing for all to see. Donnie didn't say anything, only give a firm nod. 'I'm ready.'
quickly wringing the rag out, she hurried to his back again, staring at the large slashes into the soft shell.
Besides the slashes, Tamsin stared at the shell, every spot, every curve that led to his plastron, the way it framed his large arms. The purple markins had started spreading one he was older, so there were a few on his back.
"It's beautiful." She whispered softly holding up the rag. She watched Donnies shoulders slack slowly, allowing her to continue.
She placed the rag to the cut, earning a visible flinch, to which she shushed him softly, placing her hand on his shoulder as she continued.
"You should be glad... The cut isn't too deep, I just need to clean it and patch it up."
Another nod. She cleaned the cuts as best she could, as to not hurt the poor turtle anymore as he was already uncomfortable, she in doing so, she found herself touching a few other parts of his shell, tracing the marks out of habit, earning a shudder from Donnie.
"I'm doing the bandages now." She remarked, then he heard the sound of bandage tape being pulled.
She pulled it tightly around his wait a few times, before going over his left shoulder and under his right arm to get the diagonal cuts.
She watched as fresh blood already slightly shown through the clean white bandages already, causing her to frown, but thankfully it wasn't heavy flow.
"Almost..." She had herself up against his back as she finished off the bandages, her arm over his shoulder as she placed the end safely secure under his arm. "Done! See? Now you're as charming as before!" She joked, giving him a grin.
Donnie took her hand that was over his shoulder, turning his head to look at her hands.
She watched him carefully, feeling hi warm breath against her fingers as his eyelashes slightly fluttered against her fingertips, tickling her.
He pressed his lips to her hand, peppering a small kiss to the back of it. "Thank you." He whispered meekly.
"I know I don't tell you that enough."
She just felt herself melt, beaming brightly as she placed a kiss to the back of his neck in return. "You don't need to tell me, I already know how much you love me." She said placing her chin on the crook of his neck.
"You Do Love Me, right?" She asked in a joking manner, a small laugh at the edge of her voice.
But Donnie took the question a but to literal, turning to look at her with such admiration and love as he could muster. "More than anything."
Oh boy, sappy Donnie got her blushing up a storm, hiding her flustered state by pulling away and giving him a but of space, but still close to him.
"Like I said you don't need to tell me, you hopeless romantic." She playfully edged, folding her arms lazily while staring at his back.
"No... I don't think you do." He said quietly, fumbling with his hands before he turned himself to face her fully. She only looked back, brows furrowed in confusion.
He hesitated a moment, but he carefully placed a hand to her hip and one to her back to hold her in place, watching his she visibly tensed, eyes widening slightly as that red blush littered her cheeks.
"I want to show you how much I love you."
