Candy pov
I lay on the cement block and let out a deep sigh. So much had happened in the last 3 hours. I was chased by bad robots. I was found by good robots. And now I had my own room. It was a good thing no one would notice my absence. Looking around, I was surprised by a small computer in the corner. Clicking on it curiously, I was pleased to find it held files on every autobot on base.
It took about 30 minutes of reading through the files before I got bored. I walked to the door and peeked out. There was nothing but a very big,empty hallway. I took one step, and then another, and before I knew it, I was dashing through the halls. I didn't know what I was running from, but it felt good.
I was jerked back to reality by a giant door. It towered over me, and was solid metal. Strange letters were in the front of it. I stopped to take my breath, and before I knew it, two giant, red, feet stomped on both sides of me.
"Hey Sunny!" A voice yelled above me, as I collapsed to the ground from fear.
I looked up and saw Sideswipe towering over me, looking over his shoulder, shouting at some unknown bot behind him.
"Don't kill me." I whispered.
The bots must have had some kind of super hearing because he looked down and spotted me right away. Scooping me up in one motion, he brought me to his grinning face.
"Hey fleshy!"
I trembled like a leaf. My heart pounded in my chest, due to my near death situation.
When I didn't respond, Sideswipe looked worried. "Hey, you okay?"
I felt bad for worrying him, so I tried to respond. " I-I-I-I'm fine. J-j-just a little surprised."
Relief crossed the bots face when he heard that I was okay.
"Great! Cause' me and Sunny were on our way to prank good old Hatchet."
I swallowed. "Y-Y-you mean, R-Ratchet?" I asked nervously.
"Yup!" Sideswipe confirmed, before turning around. "Hey Sunny! I've got fleshy here!"
Something about that made me a bit offended. "Candy." Sideswipes head whipped towards me. I repeated myself." Candy. Not fleshy. Candy."
Sideswipe just stared at me for a few seconds, but then changed his expression. "Of course. It's Candy. Hey, what's your last name?"
"Sweet. Candy Sweet."
Sideswipe seemed to think about it before repeating.
"Candy Sweet...I like it!" Sideswipe said happily.
Sideswipe pov-
I was so worried when I saw Candys alarmed face. But when she reassured me that she was okay, I was so relieved. I could feel the pull of her femme spark, so slowly, without her noticing, pulled her closer to my chest, where my spark was thumping.
I was surprised when I heard her annoyed voice correct me on her name without stuttering. But her voice either way was melodic. A very pleasing sound to the ears (whats a autobot ear called?).
"Why do we need her anyways?" Sunstreaker said grumpily.
I shot him a look. He got the message and shrugged. But even from here I could hear his fans turn on, and I inwardly smirked.
"Hot!" Candy suddenly yelped.
She jumped and I cursed myself for heating up. My fans chose that time to kick in, whirling loudly. I looked at Sunstreaker and glared at him as he gave me a smirk. Fine, see him hold Candy without reacting.
"G-guys!" Candy stuttered helplessly as I threw her to Sunstreaker.
"Sides!" Sunstreaker said, catching Candy easily.
"Nice catch!" I said cheerfully, already turning around to head to Ratchets lab.
3rd pov
Sunstreaker sputtered as he carefully held Candy as though she was a China doll.
"Sideswipe!" He called again, looking lost as he tried to avoid eye contact with the femme in his hands.
Sideswipe just grinned. Not turning around, he kept walking. Sunstreaker gave a sigh as he followed after his brother, spray cans in one hand, and Candy in the other.
Avoiding contact with the yellow bot, Candy twiddled with her thumbs nervously. Sunstreaker wasn't the most friendliest of the autobots, and it puzzled her on how two very different bots could be twins. After reading up on their files, it stunned her how they could have shared a heart. Or was it a spark? Candy still wasn't sure about anything, and was clueless to if they came from somewhere else, or if they had been made by someone.
It was hard to believe that anyone could have made robots so capable of different personalities, so she went with the first thought.
"Wait!" Candy said.
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker turned to her, piercing her with their blue eyes.
"S-shouldn't we, um, k-k-knock first?" Candy said, shrinking under their gaze.
Sideswipe grinned, while Sunstreaker laughed. Surprised at the bots laughter, Candy looked up at him.
"No." Was Sunstreakers amused reply, before cracking the door open quietly and tiptoeing inside, as much as giant metal robots can tiptoe.
Candy looked around in what seemed to be a room. A large desk stood at one end, and several data pads were laying around. Sunstreaker suddenly closed his hand slightly around her in his excitement, as a sleeping Ratchet came into view.
With a sinking realization, Candy watched as Sideswipe Evily grinned at her before taking a spray can and spraying it on Ratchets face. Candy rolled her eyes silently, before taking a sharpie out of her pocket and jumping onto Ratchets chest lightly.
She giggled as she doodled all over his frame, scribbling in the smallest nooks and crannies.
"One of us." Sunstreaker whispered into her ear, surprised but pleased that Candy joined them.
Sideswipe had written "An oldie but a goodie" and Sunstreaker had impressively super glued an old car light onto Ratchets forehead.
And Candy, well she had drawn Optimus Prime on their victims whole frame. It was detailed, and had a large heart circling it. Candy's face was flushed with hard work, and she smiled as she began to enjoy herself. She wasn't making a good first impression, but Candy shoved that thought to the back of her mind.
"Damn you're goodddd." Sideswipe said, too loudly.
Ratchet stirred and his optics were beginning to open, but Sideswipe and Sunstreaker were out in a flash, grabbing Candy hastily as they stumbled out laughing. They burst into the twins room and quickly shut the door behind them.
"That was, too good." Sideswipe gasped, laughing hard.
The twins high fives each other, before looking at Candy, who stood on a desk beside them. She had seemed to loosened and didn't cower or flinch. Instead she grinned mischievously.
"Can't wait till he walks around the whole base with his new makeover." Candy giggled, eyes sparkling.
Sunstreaker snickered, and plopped onto a chair behind him lazily. Flinging his hands behind his head, he smirked at Candy.
"Guess you aren't just a boring fleshy." He mused, patting Candy on the head with a large digit.
"Whats that supposed to mean?" She responded in mock offence. "Not all humans are bor- wait, nah all humans are boring to be honest."
Sideswipe sat on a chair as well, propping his legs up on a stool.
"Hm? You're human and you aren't so bad. At least you didn't run screaming when you met us."
"Gee thanks." Candy said sarcastically.
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker both stared at her. She had been so timid, but now talked without a care in the world. She sat on the edge of the desk and dangled her feet in the air, mere inches from falling. Her hair fell in front of her face, and Sunstreaker had a strong urge to brush it behind her ear.
Suddenly Sideswipes optics dimmed with an oncoming com. He slumped as he heard his order. He got up and sighed.
"C'mon Sunny, monitor duty." He said dully.
He glanced at Candy and watched as her face fell, then brightened with a new idea.
"You can watch Ratchet from the cameras! And see everyones reactions." Candy said cheerfully.
"Oh yeah! This is gonna be hilarious." Sunstreaker said, feeling a little lightened.
"Oh and um," Candy suddenly grew nervous again. "Can I stay here a while?"
Sideswipe smiled at the request.
"No problemo, sweetspark." He said before heading out the door with Sunstreaker.
Candy was once again left to silence, and she simply lay down and thought, as her eyelids grew heavy. Then she was asleep.
~outside~
The twins gazed upon Candy's sprawled figure as she peacefully slept on their desk, unaware of the feelings she was causing.
Sideswipe slowly closed the door and looked at Sunstreaker in the eye.
"Do you feel it too?" He asked.
"Yeah."Sunstreaker replied quietly.
Damn fleshy. Why can't she be normal? Sunstreaker furiously thought.
But he knew. It wasn't just her femme signature. He wasn't just lusting. Her laugh, smile, eyes. He knew.
He was in love.
