Don't own Transformers.

Unsure if I will continue this. I know this is rough, but a friend of mines likes this pairing.

In one of those rare instances it felt like for, Marissa, she was on Earth sitting next to this lake, just munching on a sandwich and enjoying the silence and beauty around her for now. Being stuck in space, her view was of the darkness around her along with the stars. Oh she didn't mind her job, she in fact loved it, but she did sometimes miss seeing this. She will enjoy this day off.

Finishing her sandwich, she placed the wrapper back in the bag to later dispose of, drank a bit of water, and sighed with contentment as she laid on her back to enjoy this beautiful day. Hair fanned back she listened to nature. She missed listening to it.

"Hello baby girl. What are you doing here?"

Snorting some laughter back, she opened her eyes to look up at Ultra Magnus smirking down at her. "Well I'm waiting on you to come down here and answer my dreams, honey bear." She joked back at him.

Placing himself gently on the ground, he sat near her. "Is there more that you want sweet cheeks?"

"Hmmm if you are gonna call me sweet cheeks then you better be laying some sugar on me now." She replied with a wink.

Chuckling now at that, he viewed her attire to assess the best thing to say next. "Well with long legs like that you are aching for a stroking."

Laughing hard at that last one she curled over just imagining him being a 100% Mr Suave. She doubted he would ever do this with one of their femmes before, so this was amusing to her, but not really in a mean way.

"This shows you, we watch Criminal Minds way too much, Magnus. It's rubbing off on us." She mentioned as she wiped a tear away from her face.

"I won't talk this way in front of the others though."

"No because you have a stiff rigid rod stuck up your aft, to not do that."

Quirking up his eyebrow ridge, he pointed out. "You are the same way yourself except for that one time you kissed that guy in front of the other Autobots in front of a cactus."

"Wait! You heard about that?" Face heated up from that memory she looked away from him.

"It was confusing behavior for them to see. They thought you had some sort of meltdown." It was funny seeing her embarrassed. He noticed it wasn't easy to do that.

Putting her hands on her hips, she said indignantly. "Well maybe I did have a meltdown. Maybe I haven't been with anyone for a long time and I just felt lonely." Turning to look at him she ventured to ask him, "Have you ever felt lonely?"

"Never thought about it. I'm always busy."

"You never wanted to company of a femme?"

"I'm in the company of you right now." He answered, but seeing her purse her lips he knew that wasn't the reply she wanted. "Honestly I've been too busy to think about that."

"You aren't busy now." She pointed out.

"Then my earlier answer stands, baby girl." Magnus quipped again.

Scratching an imaginary itch on her knee, she thought about how many femmes they really had that was operational. Mostly Arcee. Perhaps there are some in the dark recesses of space even she didn't really know about. She enjoyed talking to him in their brief down times. She turned him on to watching some shows with her. Not a lot due to their schedules, but enough to satisfy. Other than them being similar in some respects, she really didn't know that much about him. Especially age even though he hinted he is really old.

"Why are you frustrated with me, Marissa? I'm in the company of my friend. We normally share messages, and see one another during one of our missions, but why are you frustrated with me?" He queried tapping the ground next to her to get her attention from her reverie.

"I guess I'm feeling you are holding back on me, and that when I think about it... My personal life is pretty sparse." Marissa spoke candidly. "Don't you feel like you have a pretty sparse personal life at times?"

Shaking his head and frowning. "No."

"Not even a little?"

"Marissa, you and I are friends, and I've made a few friends since coming to Earth. So I believe I am progressing more than I used to be which was just this emotionless robot." Seeing her smirk a little at that, he quickly added. "Kup's words, not mines. Although I do have to agree with him on it."

"I guess you have." She smiled sweetly at him. "Do you have to go back on duty soon?"

"No I don't. Why do you ask?"

Approaching him she placed her hand on his. "Well my dear honey bear. Would you like to hang out with your baby cake for a while longer?"

Smiling down at his human friend, he nodded his head. "It would be my pleasure."

With one eye covered over with her thick hair, she squinted at him with her other eyes, and smiled. "I still want to know more about you."

"Well here is what we can do. For each question you ask me, and I answer, I in turn am allowed to ask you a question myself. This will go on until we both get tired of one another, or simply run out of things to say." Magnus suggested.

"Unlikely for you since you are way older than myself."

I may be older than you, but as everyone says, I never truly lived before." Leaning closer to her, he added. "To be quite frank, they are correct there." He said with a wink of his optic.

"Hmmm alright then. Have you ever wanted a spark mate?" She started out with.

"What? You assumed I never been sparked?"

"You have admitted to it pretty much before." She countered.

"I was simply mocking you, but no I never thought about it." He replied. "My turn. Ever been in love?"

"Never. Ever at least mated?"

"I'm sensing this will be a theme. Yes I have."

"Woo woo!" She winked playfully.

"Alright smarty pants. Have you mated?"

"Yes. Um did you like humans at first?"

"Oh you took some getting used to. Magnus chuckled, mostly at the memories of him coming here the first time. "Some I like and some I want to get away from. Did you always just want to do what you do for a living?"

Smiling proudly, she nodded enthusiastically. "I know you didn't want to be a leader. You expressed that one to me. Ever thought of mating with a human?"

"Again with the mating? You have a one track mind." He guffawed. "Once."

She was expecting a 'No' answer and not this. He was looking upon her with total amusement. Afthead, she cursed silently.

"Ever thought about a mech like some others?" He challenged.

Humming for a while, she finally replied. "Um yes. Who was the human?"

"Just someone. What about the mech?"

"Hey if you aren't going to confess then neither am I." She smiled as she mockingly placed her head in the air. "How did it feel when you were human briefly?"

Thinking of that whole adventure, he placed his hand on his helm. "Odd to say the least. Ever pull a prank on anyone?"

"Actually no. I've had a prank pulled on me. Well mostly it was a panty raid in the academy. Those guys had so much cleaning duty dealt to them, well the ones that were at least caught." Besides the adventures she had in her career, she honestly did have a boring life. She felt like such a stick in the mud.

Examining her downturned expression, he tapped near her with his digit. "Marissa? You alright?"

"Yes. Just thinking how really I haven't done too many exciting things in my personal life."

"Did you wish to pull a 'panty raid' yourself?"

"Hey you already asked your question, but no I didn't." She playfully slapped his digit. "Alright, have you pranked anyone?"

"Yes, yes I have." Waiting for her to at least say something, but instead both her eyebrows went up. "I once stole the panties from this captain I knew, and..."

"Shut up you afthead!" Laughing at the thought of him even participating in one of those would have been priceless, in her opinion.

"I heart robots was written on them. Why would you buy something like that? Is it because you were thinking of that mech?" Magnus teased.

"Hey! I heard two questions there and yes because I can't get enough of him." Leaning towards him, she playfully stroked her leg. "In fact, I hope we can make out in front of a cactus one day."

Now both laughing, they both wanted to inquire more of one another, but it felt like it would get to a place no one can escape from. Magnus looked beyond both of them to take it all in. It was nice to do this for once. Once in a while he would take a glance down at her to see her just soaking in the sun with a faint smile on her face. Smiling down at the enigmatic woman he felt he should make up an excuse to leave suddenly. This was now bordering on unfamiliar territory for him, but he couldn't be rude to her.

"Ultra Magnus! Come in, Ultra Magnus." Blaster was overheard on his com, making Marissa look up to him.

"Yes, Blaster?"

"Your presence is requested by Rodimus at once."

Standing up immediately, he informed him he would be there right away. "Well it has been brief, but pleasant."

"Yes it has." She agreed smiling. "I'll talk to you when we both get the chance."

Nodding his head, he walked away from her before transforming to roll off to Autobot city. Marissa, watched him leave, and as soon as he wasn't seen anymore she turned her attention back to her surroundings to try to enjoy her day in peace and quiet.
