This is for TimeLordBud. It's time for June Darby everyone! Hope you like it!

June stood next to Cliffjumper's memorial with a heavy sigh. Her mind was drifting a lot lately, especially after meeting the autobots. It wasn't the fact that they were giant robot aliens, it was that their leader reminded her so much of Jack's father. She pulled out a locket, always hidden in her pocket, and opened it to see a picture of her family before the accident. Tears formed in her eyes at the memories it held. She heard metal footsteps and quickly put the necklace away. She looked up to see Optimus Prime approaching.

"Hello Nurse Darby." The red and blue autobot greeted. "What brings you out here this evening?"

"I've just been thinking about what happened last night." June answered. She looked back down at the locket. "You know, Optimus, you really remind me of Jack's father."

**Flashback**

June Windhowser (later on known as June Darby) sat down in her seat with a sigh. The fifteen year old ran a hand through her long black hair as she stared down at the homework she was about to turn in. Teenagers surrounded her chatting about random stuff, completely ignoring her. She never really fit in with the "popular" crowd, or any crowd at all for that matter. Her dark eyes looked up when there was a tap on her desk. In front of her stood a new student, one with blonde hair and dark blue eyes. He had sort of a shy smile but it was a smile. He seemed unsure about who to sit by so he decided on the outcast?

"Hey, my name's John, John Darby. Can I sit next to you?" he asked. June shrugged with a small smile.

"Sure, I'm June Windhowser. Lame last name huh?" she chuckled. John smirked and sat down in the empty seat next to her. They passed notes during the class, even after they had been caught. June told him of her dream of becoming a nurse and he was hoping to be a mechanic. He'd talk about how every machine is like a life to take care of. June couldn't help but snicker at how excited he'd get over it. They were living in Jasper, Nevada. There wasn't a single auto mechanic shop in sight at the time and John would fix up people's cars for free so they could leave the dead-end town faster.

"June, John! Pay attention!" the teacher snapped. June blushed and looked down at her desk as people snickered. When the bell rang she gathered her stuff and headed for the cafeteria. John caught up to her with a worried look. He didn't like how people were laughing at her for talking to him during class and getting caught.

"Hey June, you okay?" He asked. She set down her stuff on a table before grabbing a tray for her food. He grabbed his own and got in line behind her. "I mean, you looked upset when everyone laughed."

"It's nothing. I've dealt with this since junior high. That was nothing." June mumbled as she sat down at the table. John frowned but let the matter drop…for now. They enjoyed their lunch and talked about random subjects.

**Time skip**

It was graduation day, and guess who was the valedictorian? June Windhowser of course! She was at the top of her class that year even though she had been distracted by John most of the time. He said that he had a surprise for her after the ceremony at the party at her house. When they finally got home there was a big party with their families. June sat on a tree branch waiting for John to walk by, and when he did she sprung out and tackled him to the ground. He laid there in surprise for a moment and flipped so he was on top of her. He laughed as she pouted.

"I win!" he exclaimed. June pushed him off and stood up. They climbed back into the tree and watched the party in silence. "So, what are you planning on doing now that we've graduated?"

"Well…I need to talk to you about that. I was accepted into the NYU Florida College of Nursing…full scholarship and everything. I'm leaving Jasper." June admitted. John froze and was silent. "I'll come back, I promise. But this is my dream, John. Wasn't there something you needed to tell me?"

"It doesn't matter anymore." He sighed. June gave him a curious look, but didn't press more. They just enjoyed the night and the time they had together before she had to leave Jasper.

**Several years later**

June sighed in relief when the familiar town of Jasper, Nevada came into view. It was nice to be home, even though her parents had moved to another city nearby. She smiled when the taxi parked outside of the house she hadn't seen in forever. The old tree was still standing and she couldn't help but feel excited. She didn't carry the bags with her when she ran up to knock on the door. When John opened the door he was taken off guard by a girl tackling him in a hug.

"June?!" he gasped. He hugged her back tightly. "You're back!"

"Of course I am! I'm moving back into my parents' old house now that they've moved." June exclaimed. Did I forget to mention they had been neighbors since they were little? Well they were. "And I already have a job at the nearby hospital."

"That's great! You finally get to live your dream!" John smiled at her. They grabbed her things and went over to her house to catch up on what's happened. Apparently John had also been living his dream, he now had his own auto shop. John pulled something out of his pocket that he had been holding onto since their graduation. "Hey June, remember at the graduation party how I suddenly changed my mind about talking to you about something?"

"Yeah, it was right after I told you that I was moving away. Why?" June asked as she put something away in a desk. John stood from his chair and turned her so she'd face him.

"I've been waiting years to ask you this and June…" he knelt down on one knee and opened the box in front of her to reveal a diamond ring. "Will you marry me?" Tears welled up in June's eyes and she couldn't find her voice for a moment.

"Yes! A million times yes!" she exclaimed.

**A few years later**

June lay in the hospital bed with a happy smile as the nurse handed her a small bundle in a blue blanket. June looked down happily at her newborn baby boy. The door opened and John followed a nurse inside the room. He grinned joyfully at the sight of his son. He sat in the seat next to June and looked down at him. June, without looking away from the baby, leaned against her husband.

"What should we name him?" John asked. June thought for a minute then handed her son to his father.

"How about Jackson?" she suggested.

Their lives only went downhill after this.

**Ten years later**

A ten year old Jackson Darby watched in worry as his parents fought. He gasped when John slapped June hard across the face and called her a word that Jack refused to repeat. John then left the house in a rage and never came back. June knelt on the ground and began to cry as the love of her life left her as a single mom. Jack ran up and hugged in hopes to understand what was going on.

"Momma?" he asked. June looked at him and petted his hair. "Where's daddy going?"

"I don't know, and I'm afraid daddy might not be coming home." June answered. Jack didn't understand, why would he leave them forever? Had he done something wrong? June realized in fear that she had to raise Jack alone and support them on a nurse's salary.

**End flashback**

"John only returned to get an actual divorce. Since I got custody over Jack he's supposed to pay for child support, but he never does. I could take it to court but I don't want to see his face again. I don't know what sent him over the edge like that, but that was the first time he's ever lost his temper." June sighed. Optimus was mortified at the woman's story. At first he wondered what was so upsetting, seeing as she seemed so happy at the beginning. The way he treated her was out of line and the man showed no mercy on his family. Optimus knelt down and used a finger to gently lift up her chin.

"You did a good job at raising Jack. If there's anything you two need do not hesitate to ask." The Prime stated. June smiled and put her hand on his large finger.

"Thanks Optimus."
