Chapter 3) Partners Again

"Flames…. I'm so sorry!" Lockdown embraced her.

"You remembered," Flames smiled.

"Why didn't you say anything?" the tattooed mech growled.

"Because you didn't recognize me!" Flames smacked him softly.

"I'm sorry," Lockdown looked down into her optics.

"It's okay, but…. Did you really mean everything in that flash back?" Flames asked slowly.

"Every single bit," he replied.

"I shouldn't have had left," Flames hung her head.

"I should've stopped you and told you how I felt," Lockdown sunk down with her.

He cupped her cheek and brought their lips together.

It was a passionate kiss, glossa's intertwining, embracing one another tightly.

"AWW!"

They broke apart.

Diablo was standing in the doorway.

"D!" The two yelled.

^^^^^^^
"So, we're partners again?" Flames smiled.

"Partners," Lockdown grinned back.

Flames put a combination mod on her arms and merged the Death's Head with The Black Dragon.

"Holy slag….." Lockdown was amazed.

"Yup! A combination mod! It was expensive, but totally worth it!" Flames smiled.

"HEY! WAIT!" Diablo called.

"What, D?" the couple snapped in unison.

"Here! Some highgrade!" Diablo handed them a box full.

"For what?" Lockdown asked.

"Ya' know, just in case ya'll wanna get freaky, it feels good, especially when you're tasting it from your mate, to-"

"D!" Flames smacked her friend.

"How come you have a problem with the idea, but Lockdown doesn't!" Diablo rubbed his cheek.

"Lockdown does have a problem with-"

"No he doesn't," D pointed to the black and green hook-handed mech.

Lockdown's face was red, blissful sighs were escaping his mouth, and his optics were full of love.

Flames blushed, took the box of highgrade, and went to the ship's cargo room.

"You take care of 'er, ight?" Diablo patted Lockdown's back.

"Pit yeah I will," the bounty hunter replied.

"Okay, stop by once in a while, and don't forget to call me so I can help plan for the wedding," D laughed.

"All right, I'll be sure to do that," Lockdown bid his farewell.
