~One-Shot Story~
"…Jazz what is this?"
"It's a present for you Prowler!"
"…What am I suppose to do I do with it?"
"It's got energon treats inside!"
"…I see…"
"Aren't you gonna take it?"
"…What is it again?"
"Prowler~"
Jazz whined from across Prowl's desk with servos still out stretched, in his servos was a large metal box shaped in a heart and painted pink. "Haven't you noticed the decorations?"
"Of course, I authorized them even though I didn't see the point to them."
"But its Valentine's Day Prowl~" the saboteur pouted, "it's a day to celebrate love, friendship and togetherness!"
"I still don't see what it has to do with the box you're trying to give me."
"On Valentines your suppose ta give treats you da bot ya love! And I love you Prowler!"
"I know that Jazz, we've been bonded for vorns now, I just don't see the point to these…gifts…Is it a human tradition?"
"Yup! Bots around the base are giving gifts to dere bondeds, deres also gonna be a party later in da recreation room." The saboteur then took a treat out of the box; offering it to the hesitant police bot, "try it! I made it myself! With love!"
"If you made it then I think I should be worried-" Prowl was cut off when Jazz shoved the treat in his mouth abruptly, frowning at the grinning saboteur he silently ate it before speaking again, "I think that was unnecessary."
"You were hurting ma feelings, not taking any." Jazz pretended to look wounded, "they taste yummy yeah?"
"…They were alright."
"I know someone else who tastes yummy too."
"JAZZ!" Prowl yelped smacking Jazz's wandering servos away, "that is inappropriate and someone could walk in!"
"I know…wouldn't that be kinky?"
"JAZZ!"
The saboteur laughed at the blushing police bot waving his hands in defense, "just kidding Prowler, you gotta lighten up."
"Jazz…thank you for the gift, but I have some data pads I still need to complete." The black and white bot said picking one up from the pile, for it to only be snatched away, "Jazz I need to complete those!"
"Nu-uh Prowler, today's Valentine's day and everyone has the day off, so your spending it with me!"
"Jazz, Valentine's day does not stop the Decepticons. I also need to reschedule some patrol shifts to fit the upcoming party."
"…You don't want to spend Valentine's with me?"
Prowl froze knowing that tone anywhere, being bonded for vorns left him with that knowledge and the knowledge of the consequences that happens after if the saboteur is denied after using that tone. Not daring to look the saboteur in the optics he cycled air before caving in, "…Alright I will take time off and spend Valentine's with you."
"Yay! I knew you would Prowler, cause you love me."
"…Yes I love you very much…Please stay away from the roof of the ark."
"Oh Prowler, that was just a joke."
"You were on the roof for half the day; playing sad romance songs and throwing black paint bombs at everyone who passed by screaming 'love is dead!'"
"Funny wasn't it?"
"…You even scared the Decepticons away that day."
"Anyway~ Lets go!"
The police bot sighed as he was dragged away from the safety of his office and was forced to head to the recreation room by his pushy bond mate, this was going to be a long day. Walking down the hall, he was barraged with brightly colored posters advertising the special day and even more bots walking around with more decoration in their servos, everyone was getting into the spirit it had seemed. Entering the recreation room, Prowl was almost blinded by the brightness of all the decorations; covering his optics Prowl rubbed them and blinked trying to make sense of all of it. "How is this possible? I only allowed all this a few orns ago."
"Funny thing bots can do when it's for love."
"Hello Prowl, hey Jazz what do you think of the decorations?" greeted a yellow minibot carrying a box full of even more decorations.
"Looking good Bee! How is it all going anyway?"
"Nearly done, just a few more hallways and we'll be ready for the party."
"I hope you're all not going overboard, I thought this 'Valentine's day' only has a duration of one cycle." Said Prowl dryly only to get a jab in the waist by a smiling saboteur.
"It does Prowl, but it's our first Valentine's and bots around here want to go all out for it."
Does this 'all out' include blinding unsuspecting meches with neon colored material?
Prowler be nice, they worked hard on those!
That's why I didn't ask it out loud.
"Good job Bumblebee, I think this will pick up moral around here, been low lately with all the Decepticon attacks," said Prowl to the minibot while Jazz gave another blinding smile, Prowl could sense the silent threat the visor mech was sending him through the bond though if he dared to say his thoughts out loud.
Bumblebee smiled and stood up straighter, proud for getting a complement from the second in command. "Keep up the good job Bee!" added Jazz with a thumbs up.
The couple then walked over to the energon dispenser, walking pass the various couples that were helping with the decorations, "Prowler why don't we help out too?"
"I thought you wanted us to spent time together?" asked the police bot trying to work out the logic on creating colorful collages.
"I do! We can do it together!" replied Jazz not noticing Prowl's furrowing brow.
"Together, to stick up tacky and brightly colored pieces of paper…Are you sure that would be 'romantic' as you put it?" Prowl might not be well versed in the topic of 'romance' as most bots, but he was 95% sure that this was not it.
"Prowler~ I'll be fun!" Ah so it fell more into the category of 'fun' then; this the police bot was hopeless in, everything that bots said were 'fun' made no logical sense and most of the time the police bot would put into the category of 'insane'.
"If you say so then." This didn't fall under category of 'insane', but 'fun' really?
Once finished drinking a cube each, they began helping bots stick large hearts on the walls and creating more posters, Prowl was calmly sticking them up while Jazz has his servos full of glitter paints to decorate a large sheet, "Prowler look!"
Prowl stared calmly at the large pink paper with red hearts and the words 'Prowl X Jazz 4evers!' surrounded by random stickers and little drawings, "lovely Jazz." Turning back to the wall, he fought his processors which was trying to find the logic in such activities, why did it not come with an 'off' buttons at times like this?
"I think it's the best of dem all!" Prowl was reminded of a sparkling staring at his mate.
"And I'll stick it on the wall for all to see," Jazz pouted at the sparkling thought passed through the bond but passed the poster over anyway.
"Prowl!" the sound of his name caused Prowl to turn around and blink, hard.
There in front of him was what he had hoped was Bluestreak; if one tried really hard to look pass all the pink hearts painted onto his door wings, the red heart that was now his chevron, the stars that randomly appeared on his chassis and the balloons that were tied onto each of his servos. Prowl fought the urge to just let his processors crash when he noted how happy Bluestreak was, he could deal with this; he had dealt with worst. "…Bluestreak what happened to you?"
"Oh this? This is just for fun! A way to show the Valentine spirit! Do you like it? Bumblebee, Mirage and Hound helped put them on me, that was really nice of them. Look I have hearts, stars and balloons and I made them all! Well, Wheeljack made the balloons and is handing them out for everyone but I colored and cut out all the hearts and stars myself. We also have energon treats somewhere and they taste really good! I haven't had energon treats in ages and they taste great and they come in different shapes-"
"That's nice Bluestreak, they look very nice on you," the police bot has dealt with the twins for Primus sake, 'keep a straight face' Prowl kept chanting to himself.
"Thanks Prowl, would you like some too? I came over here cause I wanted to ask if you wanted some stars and hearts too! I made them myself a few orns ago and everyone says they're really good. You want some too Jazz? I think they'll look really good on you, really anything on you looks good cause you're so cool and calm and all-"
"Sure Bluestreak I'll love one, gimme a star to put on ma chest here," Jazz was use to the babbling bot, sometimes you have just got the let the little Datsun go when he works himself into a frenzy.
Looking at Bluestreak's cheerful expression when he helped paste the star on Jazz's chassis, Prowl cringed with two bright blue optics turned to him but couldn't say no to those puppy optics when they stared right into his. "Alright Bluestreak, you can decorate me however you like," said the police bot reluctantly while Jazz gave his mate a thumbs up and a blinding smile.
"Oh Thank you Prowl! You'll look really nice! It's nice to see you get in the spirit of things Prowl. Every ones excited about today and are doing all they can to get ready," Bluestreak happily chatted away, pasting hearts on both of Prowl's door wings carefully knowing how sensitive they can be, "but some won't even do anything to help, all they're doing is just sitting around and playing games. I mean how mean is that? We're all working hard to get the party ready and all those twins want to do is play games till the party starts, something about a new racing game. Someone should really do something about that I mean-"
"Oh you look smashing Prowler!"
"You think so Jazz? I made these hearts and stars really carefully cause I wanted them to be perfect and I was really hoping they were. I spent a lot of time on them and everything-"
"He looks great Bluestreak, just a star on his front and on his legs and he'll look completely eatable."
"JAZZ!"
"Oh it's alright Prowl he's your bond mate I understand, and I think you would look really nice with those stars" Bluestreak giggled at his blushing mentor, he's had vorns to get use to Jazz's teasing about his mate. "There all done. Jazz was right Prowl, you look really good with those on you and everything! Now you really look ready for Valentine's day! So what are you planning to do till the party? There are still some hallways that we have to decorate but we have some bots already on it. Maybe you should walk around and see them, some are really good with all the colors and all-"
"That's a great idea Bluestreak! Prowl and I will do that! Hey why you don't go around and offer those hearts to some other bots? I think they will love them." Jazz adored the kid but even he had his limits, he stopped listening about half way through.
"I agree with Jazz, many bots will be grateful for you to decorate them Bluestreak. How about Ironhide? He is already the right color, he just needs some shapes to go with his paint job." Bluestreak looked surprised at the black and white bots suggestion.
"You really think so Prowl? I think Ironhide would look good with them too! What about Ratchet and Wheeljack too? Oh I could offer them to everyone! Spreading the love yeah? Do you know where he is? I checked the shooting range but he wasn't there and I think he's not in the med bay or anything cause no one has gotten hurt yet-"
"Ironhide is on monitor shift in the command center, I think he would approve of your company."
"Oh thank you Prowl! I'll go give it to him now, he'll love them."
With that the happy Dustan wandered off in search of the weapons specialist. "That was mean Prowler," stated the grey mech after Bluestreak turned the corner.
"I really do think Ironhide would appreciate the sentiment," stated the black and white bot with a calm face.
"And you didn't hear how he shouted about how slagging annoying this celebration was? and that he would rather propose to a Decepticon then have anything to do with this holiday?" Jazz rose a brow.
"Oh that must have slipped my mind," Prowl feigned innocence.
"You're devious Prowler," grinned Jazz after a chuckle.
"If you say so," Prowl waved off the accusation, "did you not want to go and look at the other decorations Bluestreak had mentioned?"
Jazz just laughed locking his arm with Prowl's, "away we go!"
Both couples walked out of the rec room and down the halls following the streams of papers and balloons, both were talking quietly to each other making comments and small talk before a laugh caused them to stop short. Turning around Prowl scowled seeing the two twins pointing at their general direction and laughing, the door wings perched higher to showed that; Jazz patting the rising wings only slightly caused them to lower. "Calm down Prowl, think about Valentine's day and its meaning."
"Is it not all about your loved one rather then about annoying twins?"
"Friendship is a type of relationship Prowler." Prowl scowled while Jazz gave him an encouraging smile.
"Is something amusing Sideswipe? Sunstreaker?"
"H-H-holy P-primus" Sideswipe could barely stay upright as he laughed, "w-w-what are t-those on you?"
"Bluestreak had made these for the occasion," Sunstreaker was holding onto his brother laughing muttering something about how the colors matched his personality, "it is the celebration of Valentine's day and I see no problem with them."
"Yeah, I know it's Valentine's day but I couldn't ever picture you in them Mr. Lives-by-the-book-bot." Sideswipe laughed tracing the heart on Prowl's door wing causing it to twitch and smack the servo away, "I think it really matches you Prowl, you gonna wear it all the time now?"
"Now, now bots. I think Prowl looks dashing in them," Jazz added, not helping the situation at all.
"I agree with Jazz the additions brings out Prowl's more sensitive side," Prowl scowled harder at the yellow bot, "I'm impressed Prowl, I would never allow those to be placed on me, so brave of you."
"Oh yeah! Thanks for the love Prowl, I knew deep down you loved us," Sideswipe snickered trying to reach for the heart again, "have we been wrong all along about you? That deep inside, you're a deep and sensitive bot who all but wants is the love and acceptance of other bots? Oh Prowl you have that and more."
"Don't you two have something else to do?" Jazz sent calming waves at the police bots while trying to smother his own snickers, his bonded was a traitor.
"Oh but Prowl, I thought you loved us," Sunstreaker smirked a wicked smirk while pulling Sideswipe along before his servo got smack again by an agitated bot, "come on Sides, Prowl no longer loves us."
"Aww but we love you Prowl! We'll catch up later, we gotta get ready for the party." Sideswipe sent Prowl a kiss as he walked away, "get ready for the best high grade tonight Jazz cause by the look of Prowl he's ready for some love tonight."
Jazz was left standing with Prowl, snickering to himself as he rubbed the hitched up door wings, Prowl was fuming at the Lamborghini twins. "Aww Prowl don't let them spoil your mood, they we're just playing."
"Great now how am I supposed to expect them to listen to me when all they will think about is the hearts and stars next time they pull a prank?"
"Oh Prowler, think of the spirit of the day, they were just having a little fun, they mean no harm."
"Spirit of the-" with a sudden look of realization Prowl's door wings swooped down to their normal levels to the surprise of the saboteur, "your right Jazz it is Valentine's day."
With that the police bot started marching down the hallway away from his standing mate, "Prowler? Where you going? Weren't we gonna see the decorations together?"
"I'm sorry Jazz but something important has come to mind that I must work on it now."
"But Prowler~ we are supposed to spend time together!"
"We will Jazz, later, I have to finish this."
"Prowl! Don't make me go to the roof like last time on Valentine's day!"
"You'll like it I promise!" With that Jazz was left behind as Prowl rounded the corner and out of sight, pouting he walked off looking for somebot he could cry on, how could his bond mate leave him for work? oh he was going to pay, after Valentine's though, he didn't want to ruin the day for other bots.
Prowl was busy rummaging through a box while everyone was preparing for the party. With a smirk on his lips he stood up, carrying the box and walking out of the room, "helping to decorate Prowl?"
Prowl jumped and looked over to see Optimus peering over his door wings, "oh sir, I did not see you… Yes I'm helping to decorating things."
"Shouldn't you be spending time with Jazz right now?" Even Optimus was fearful to go outside on that 'Jazz rooftop' day incident.
"…I'm preparing him a surprise."
"Really? That's wonderful Prowl, I hope he likes it." Prowl rose his brow at the leaders relived expression, it wasn't like he was the one who had to handle it.
"Of course, everyone will." With those ominous words Prowl left the room leaving Optimus with the feeling that the second in command was planning something, 'I don't know anything' with that last thought as Optimus continued walking to the recreation room hoping to see how the preparations were going.
Later when the party was beginning, the third in command saboteur could be seen sitting with Blaster crying out his woes of having such a single minded and hard working bond mate. "And he just left me saying that he had some work to do."
"Oh how could he? Doesn't he know what today is?" replied Blaster not even looking away from the dance floor, the grey mech has been whining to him for orns now.
"Yes! I explained it to him and everything- and he just took off. A little teasing from the twins and he's dashing off to his office, you think with how long Prowl's been dealing with them."
"You know how sensitive Prowl is about his reputation, the twins barely listened to him before."
"He couldn't even suck it up for one day? On the day of LOVE?"
"I guess, where is he now?"
"Oh I don't know, when he ran off he blocked the bond, all I can feel is that he's generally happy where ever he's at."
"Prowl did never like parties," seeing Jazz's scowl Blaster reiterated , "but it is Valentine's day and all."
"I know, why do I have to have such a workaholic bond mate who won't even spend the time to hang around with his love? Is that really asking so much?"
"Err Jazz?"
"I mean, I know his work is important and all but I need some attention to ya know?"
"Jazz behind-" Blaster tried waving his servos but Jazz was well into his angst mood.
"But noo, I have to have a mate who rather spend time with all the data pads and reports then me, I'm not being selfish here, lately we haven't even had time to do some downright satisfying interfac-"
"Jazz! Behind you!" Some this Blaster did not need to know about his best friend.
Turning around Jazz yelp in surprise when he was attacked by something vibrant red, moving back till he did the table to see it better, Jazz saw it was a bouquet of a couple hundred roses to make them more transformer sized, visor optics following the arm that held the roses to blue optics that met blue visor. "Happy Valentine's day Jazz."
"Huh? Wah? A-are these for me?" Spluttered Jazz staring at said mate he had been whining about for half the cycle.
"Of course, you are my bond mate, it is Valentine's day after all and I researched that roses were needed for the occasion." Replied the mech acting like he heard nothing, wishing that his mate would stop talking about their interfacing habits in public though.
"But how did you get that many?"
"I have known about Valentine's day for a while now Jazz, it was easy to research it and find out what it includes and ordering enough from different sources."
"You mean when you left before it was to- Oh Prowler thank you!"
The saboteur took the roses and hugged them with a flourish, showing all the other bots what he had gotten as a present from his bonded, congratulated for them with Blaster slipping away into the crowd finally free, he turned back to look lovingly at his bond mate. "Oh Prowl I would have never guessed."
"I did want it to be a surprise," Prowl nodded to Blaster causing the cassette player to nod back and change the music, "would you like to dance?"
Jazz gasped as his favorite song played throughout the room, "Oh Prowl of course."
Taking the police bots hand both rose to go join the other dancing bots, wrapping his servos around the police bots neck he sighed happily as he lay his head on the others shoulder. They both spun in circles around the floor holding each other contently, "Oh Prowl this is perfect, I should have never doubted you, running off to get roses for me. I love you."
"Oh you mean before? I had the roses delivered and hid them in a storeroom so you wouldn't find them cycles ago."
"…" Jazz thought about it and realized that if this was true Prowl wouldn't have been gone for so long, "Then where were you?" suspicion laced his words.
Prowl could feel Jazz tense up again, sending pulsing waves of love he waited till Jazz relaxed again before answering, "I was not getting the roses, no, but I was helping with some decorations; a surprise decoration." Prowl gave Jazz a knowing look when he saw that Jazz was about to protest that they could have done it together.
"Really? What was it?" asked Jazz flatly pouting at his mate.
"It's a surprise, for you and the rest of the ark," hearing this Jazz brightened up, it was one this to celebrate because Jazz wanted him to, it was another to do it for the ark.
"Aww Prowl that's so sweet."
"You did say friendship was a relationship."
"When are we gonna see it?"
"Oh…in about a few clicks," Prowl's smirk was down right evil.
The song was then abruptly cut out as everyone heard two screams of horror, being battle bots, everyone ran out of the room and down into the hallway towards the direction of the screams; thinking that it was a Decepticon attack. Getting to the scene, a few hallways away, everyone couldn't help but stare at the twins for an astrosecond before breaking down in laughter clutching at each other.
There was both the Lamborghini twins standing in the hall ways staring at each other in horror.
Why?
Because they were both dripping with bright pink paint that was already drying in some places, showered with glitter which stuck to their bodies, attacked by magnet hearts, stars and smiley faces and were then covered in paper confetti.
Bots clutched each other in laughter and joy, some kept taking pictures for future blackmail and revenge, some crashed because to was all too much, some jeered and cheered and some just threw more decorations at the twins. The twins were not happy bots, standing there pouting and glaring at the rest of the ark cheered and hooted, especially Ratchet who was crying from laughter.
"Happy Valentine's day Jazz."
"Oh Prowl I love it, best present ever," Jazz let out only last snicker before hugging Prowl, "Best Valentine's day ever love."
Bots then began to cheer louder at the police bot when they realize who had pranked the twins, to their surprise, and let out whoops as Jazz and Prowl came together for a kiss. Best first Valentine's day for the Autobots indeed.
"I wonder if the Autobots are suspicious why we didn't attack them today."
This came from a tricolored seeker staring at the monitors in thought, "who cares about them, this is fun! Who knew fleashies can come up with stuff like this," interrupted a voice.
The tri colored seeker turned to look left to see a black and purple seeker covered in pink hearts and smiley faces. "Indeed, now if you excuse me, I have to go scare the slag out of Megatron by declaring my fake love and admiration for him."
"Best Valentine's day ever! We'll see you in out berth afterwards yeah?"
"Of course, with all the effort it took us to tie Thundercracker there with hot pink rope and all it would be a waste."
"Oh yeah! Best first Valentine's day EVER!" Cheered the black and purple seeker warping to pulloff more pranks and a second in command humming as he existed the room to find where his leader was hiding.
End.
