Hello everyone of this Fanfic universe. So this is my first story and I thought I would do a transformers story. I was inspired to write this by a fellow writer of mine, CyberKia. If you really want an awesome Transformers Prime story, I would suggest the story, The Plan. And also its sequel. Anyways. I have been reading her story's, but she hasn't been able to read mine since I didn't have any up yet so here it is.

The thing with this chapter was that I was wracking my brain trying to find a good topic for Optimus and Rafael to talk about kind of like a mother, son talk. And what would you guess I saw on a TV show the other night. So that is an explanation as to where this plot bunnies cam from. And if it has slipped your notice, this is a Fem-Optimus Prime story so you may turn back now if this is not your cuppa tea, I suggest you turn back now. As for the rest of you, here are some disclaimers:

Disclaimer: I do not own Transformers Prime or Hasbro. (Sorry if I spelled their name wrong.) If I did, the series would continue after a third season.

Hope You all enjoy, Eve Prime.

Rafael was feeling under the weather on a Wednesday. His mom and dad had gone to work leaving him at home alone. He was really quite lonely just sitting at home playing video games. Though it was his favorite pass time, he would rather go the base and hang out with bumble bee. But him and most of the team were out looking for energone. He stood up to go and grab something to drink. As he was walking by the his front door he saw a blue and red semi parked out side. He jump up in excitement which sent him into a coughing fit. Once he had recovered he ran into the kitchen and grabbed a juice box and went out into the street in his pajamas.

"Rafael. I thought that maybe you might want to go for a ride? Is that fine with you?" Raf thought for a moment.

"Ya sure. I would love to go for a ride." Optimus opened the passenger side door so that Raf could get in. He climbed into the seat and buckled up and started to drink on his juice box. Optimus started forward. They drove for a couple of minuets in silence before Raf shivered.

"Are you cold?" Optimus turned the heat up and pointed it towards Rafael's small body.

"Thank you Optimus." After a few more minuets of silence Rafael broke it. "So um. Can I ask you something?" They had just reached the edge of the town.

"Anything you want. If in turn I may ask you a question?" Rafe squirmed in his seat a little. He seemed to have a very pressing question that he didn't know how to go about asking. Optimus was able to seance this from the feelings he was giving off. Humans were very expressive if you were able to read them. "Rafael. I find that when you want to ask a question, just to get it out."

"Ya. Ya your right. Um. Have you ever liked someone, who you really shouldn't like, but you do any ways?" Optimus suddenly stopped and the air went cold.

"Um. I, um-" Optimus started again and the air went back to normal. She searched for the words to explain. She knew Raf felt very awkward because he had asked.

"Sorry I asked." He went back to drinking his juice as they went up the winding path up into the mountains.

"No it is alright. But, let us wait until we reach our destination. If that is fine with you?" Raf nodded. And finished off his juice box. After about another five minuets they arrived at the top of a mountain. Raf got out and went and sat on top of a rock while Optimus transformed into her Autobot form and sat next to him with her legs dangeling off the cliff. They sat in comfortable silence for a moment while Optimus decided on what to say to the young human.

"Once, Quite a long time ago on Cybertron, I thought I harbored feelings for someone who I really should have know was not in love with me." She paused for a moment to let that sink in. "May I inquire why you ask?" Raf had to take a moment to snap out of his trance and pick his jaw up off the ground. Optimus Prim, In Love?! He looked down at his shoes so as not to seem rude.

"I asked because, well, Bumble Bee never liked, or loved someone, and it felt strange asking Arcee or Bulkhead, or even Ratchet. And since your the leader I thought you might have some advice to give me, or, I just, don't know why I asked." Rafael trailed off as Optimus gave a small oh. She didn't know what it was, but she new that there was something more that he wanted to ask her so she decided to give him a gentle nudge.

"Rafael, is there someone that you would like to know better then as a friend?" She gave the little human a faint smile.

"Ya. Well kind of. She is in my class at school, but she is already in a relationship. Or something."

"You know. At such a young age, you are really just making friendships, and not relationships. I think unless you really like her, then you should just ask to be friends." He thought this over for a moment.

"Well then how do I know if I really like her or not?" Optimus thought about it for a moment.

"Well, tell me what like about her."

"She is pretty, and, uh funny, um. Well, um." Optimus gave him a knowing look. "I guess I kinda see what you mean."

"See. All that you like about her his her looks, but you like something of her personality. You have what you need for a friendship. When you get older you will find someone who makes you laugh, who is there to protect you and will help keep you safe as you will her. All you must do is wait." She gave Raf an awkward smile. He felt a little pride rise in his chest. He knew that she wasn't really used to these kind of things. She had a far off look as she looked off into the sunset. Raf shivered a little and Optimus noticed.

"Raf. Would you like to sit with me?" He nodded as Optimus moved her hand and Rafael moved into it then went and sat on her thigh leaning against her middle. He felt her turn up her internal temperature as he snuggled into her. She placed one of her hands behind her and the other over Raf as he fell asleep. She looked out at the sunset. Even if she didn't always show it, she truly loved all the children as her own. She would do anything for them.

"Oh Optimus? Didn't you want to ask me a *Yawn* question?" She looked down at the tiny little form that was huddled up. It brought one of her rare smiles to her face.

"I just wanted to inquire why you were acting a little different, but I think this has answered it." She felt him relax back into her and fall into a restful sleep.
