TMNT Imagines // Leonardo x Reader

Read to Me...

It was quiet for once.

Practice and patrol were over and, with his younger brothers off to pick up dinner, Leonardo had a peaceful moment to himself.

The turtle cherished these moments. No yelling or fighting or stupid jokes. Just him and a good book. He lounged on the worn out couch, a blanket tossed over his legs as he opened the worn out cover.

But the door opening made him paused. At first, Leo thought it was his brothers. But if they were really back, they were being quiet...a little too quiet.

He turned around, blue eyes expecting his snickering siblings. Instead, he saw you.

"Did I sneak up on you?"

He smiled, reaching a hand out.

"Yeah. Sneaking up on a ninja is hard work...our training is paying off nicely."

You smiled at your boyfriend, taking his hand in yours and leaning close to him.

"I just came to return your book."

Setting the novel next to him and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek, you nearly turned and left. But Leonardo could think of no person better to share his quiet moments with and he pulled you back.

"Stay a while," he said, "I'm about to start the second book."

You pretended to think and he gave you a pleading look. Who could resist such pretty eyes and a sweet smile.

"Are you going to read to me?"

"Will you stay if I say yes?"

You nodded and he "gave in". In reality, he loved these moments. When you crawled over the couch and sat on his lap, snuggling under the blanket, his heart back flipped in his chest.

Leo opened the book once more, his voice carrying through the empty lair. He loved quiet moments but, oh, he loved them even better with you.
