Alexis patted her dog with its injured leg and gently stroked the other surviving dog from the bear attack that was getting some well-deserved rest. As she did this she let her warm fir roar and just gazed up at Starscream who had placed himself next to the barn where she had the camp fire. The fire flickering off Starscream's tanish metal made him look very mysterious, but at the same time . . . very strong and protective. Alexis smiled as she gazed into his ruby optics and just kept in silence.
She looked down at her dogs and that were recovering quite well and just sighed. She had never though silence could mean so much, but it did. She knew Starscream was watching her and she didn't mind. She wasn't going to say anything for she wanted this.
She liked him watching her for she knew that when he did she was the safest person on earth and it was all because he was so protective over her and strong. He was her guardian angel that had just some problems with flying that's all.
"Don't worry about the dogs," smiled Alexis looking back up to Starscream who kept a close optic on her. "They should be fine. All they should need is some good rest."
"It's not the dogs I am worried about," said Starscream tilting his head to her.
Alexis fluttered her eyes looking down and away from him so he could not see her blush. The fire light hid her red cheeks quite well, but Starscream could see everything. He did not have to look for color to know her heart had just skipped a beat. Starscream cocked his head at this and so wondered if he had said something to hurt her.
"Did I say something to make your body change so?" he asked.
Alexis placed a hand on her flaring cheeks and tried her hardest not to look at him so much.
"No . . . not really. I'm fine."
"Good," said Starscream leaning back against the barn and just watching the fire slowly die down.
Alexis didn't want to leave her dogs alone and so she stayed all night out with them. She fell asleep as the fire died out. Her dogs cuddled up against her but it was not enough to keep her warm and so she woke up and looked around to perhaps find something to warm herself. As she found the right thing she smiled and moved over to it.
Starscream awoke as he felt his hand move. He looked down and found Alexis wrapping up in it and go to sleep. Why was she doing this? he wondered. He watched her as she fell asleep and this gave him a smile seeing her lay her head down on his finger.
Right before Alexis let her dreams take her feelings and mind over she felt the movement of Starscream's grip tighten to warm her a little better and keep a good hold on her. She looked up at Starscream who seemed to be sleeping, but at that moment she saw him smile. Alexis smiled back even though she knew he didn't see her, but she could tell he knew. She could feel it.
When morning came Alexis awoke to find herself gently placed on the ground. She looked around fearing Starscream had left again, but when she saw him standing just over the dogs who were jumping and wagging their tails at him she was glad. She got up and wiped the dirt off her hands and came to him as he played with the dogs a bit. She smiled as she looked up at him and said-
"I'm glad you got them to play."
At seeing Alexis awake he stopped playing with the dogs and walked away from them.
"Um . . . glad to see you're awake," he said walking away from the playful dogs.
The dogs would not leave him alone though. They wanted him to play with them some more, but Starscream did not want to.
"No animals!" he said halting them.
Now they would not stop barking at him and so Starscream sighed. Alexis just smiled and looked at Starscream. She saw how well he was healing, but she knew she had to fix those boosters of his.
"Come on," smiled Alexis. "Let me at least fix your boosters while I'm still dirty."
And so Starscream let her work on his boosters and when she had finished doing all she could she wiped off the grease and said-
"Well you can try and test to see how well you can fly now, but I don't know how well it is. I'm gonna go take a shower to get cleaned up so I'll meet you later and wait for you to come back if you want to."
And so Alexis left to go get cleaned up. She took about an hour long shower just getting refreshed up. After she dried herself off she decided on what to wear. She couldn't tell as she looked through her closet.
As she looked at her closet she saw something that caught her eye. She took it out and gazed at the beautiful white dress that only came down to her knees with no sleeves. It was her mothers when she was younger and so she smiled at seeing it again. Her mother always wanted to see her wear this dress one day when she found that special someone, but she can't now so perhaps she could make her mother proud by just wearing it for the special someone.
Alexis smiled as she glanced in the last way she saw Starscream at and so she put the dress on and found it fit her perfectly. Every curve of hers was highlighted and so was her smooth arms and legs. She didn't know why she wanted to look so special for him, but she just wanted to. She found herself hoping Starscream would like the way she looked no matter how odd it would seem.
After she got ready she headed outside and wondered if Starscream would come back. It was nice outside and the sun felt very good on her light skin. It was not too warm and the wind was not too cold. It was a perfect day one that seemed so rare that day.
She sighed and looked up at the sky. She couldn't see him. Had he gone? Had he . . . not even taken off yet? Her question was soon answered.
"Uh-hem," came Starscream getting her attention.
Alexis turned to see an F-22 raptor. It was Starscream.
"Starscream?" she smiled coming up to him. "Why haven't you taken off yet?"
"I was . . . waiting for you," said Starscream as he opened his cockpit.
"Why?" asked Alexis looking at him through and through.
"Well if I crash because you didn't fix me right then you're going down with me," grinned Starscream.
Alexis just chuckled and shook her head. She sighed and looked at him with glittering teal eyes. Her smile was clear. She wanted to go with him.
Alexis got up on Starscream and she got in the cotpit he said-
"Watch your step."
Alexis just smiled at him and placed her hands on her hips and said-
"Aw . . . do you care Starscream?"
"Well if you get hurt then I'll crash alone," said Starscream.
Alexis just laughed as she buckled herself in and readied to take off. She had never been up in the air before and so she couldn't wait. Starscream started his boosters and readied to take off.
"Brace yourself Alexis," said Starscream.
"Okay," smiled Alexis her breathing quick with excitment.
Starscream took off and Alexis was back in her seat at the velocity of speed for his flight. He was fast and now she knew . . . dangerous, but she thanked God that he was on her side and would never hurt her. She could now see the decepticon in him. He was a very strong fighter.
She gripped her seat with the strongest of grips and Starscream could feel it.
"Take it easy Alexis," he said slowing down a bit for her. "You're fine."
"I've . . . never flown before," smiled Alexis with a gasp of small fear.
"So you are afraid?" asked Starscream.
"Not of flying, but of crashing," she pushed out of her mouth.
"Hey . . . are you saying I can't fly?" asked Starscream a bit offended.
"I wouldn't really know," she toughed out a smile.
"Well then it's your day to find out," he smirked as he headed straight up like into space.
"Starscream what are you doing?!" gasped Alexis as her whol body shook as they went up and higher.
"I want to show you something," he smiled. "And plus I have to test my boosters out well."
Starscream went up to near space and showed Alexis the beauty of the stars and when he flew up there it was as if time stood still as she gazed into space and the very clear stars. She gasped in awe at seeing this. It was so beautiful. She loved it.
/Your fear it moves me/
/Your weakness I taste/
/I breathe you, I hate you/
/You course through my vains/
"Oh Starscream," he sighed in awe. "It's beautiful."
/And now/
/And now/
Starscream just smiled as he saw Alexis enjoying herself. She deserved to after all she had done for him. He had to give something in return for all she had done for him. As Alexis placed her hands on the window of the cockpit it was as if she could touch the stars herself.
/You want me. You love me/
/And I hate myself/
/I need you, but I hate you/
/'Cause I want nothing else/
She had never seen them so clear in her life. It was even better than a clear summer day. She couldn't have asked for more than just to be with Starscream right here, right now. It was everything to her.
As they did this something happened that made Starscream jolt upward a bit.
"Whoa!" gasped Alexis feeling it. "What was that."
"My boosters," growled Starscream. "They're acting up again."
/And I bleed you since I've healed you/
/Your pain escapes through me/
/'Cause I breathe you, but I hate you/
Alexis then saw some smoke behind Starscream and new that is was not good.
"Starscream!" she cried wanted back down on earth.
/'Cause they say we could never be/
/They can't see/
"I'm going, I'm going!" he said turning around and flying back to earth before his boosters quite on him like before.
Stascream had to land right where he had fallen before in that large meadow. There he made a smooth landing and Alexis quickly got out of him so that he could transform.
"I am so sorry Starscream," she apologized flicking part of her bands back behind her ear.
"It is fine," smiled Starscream flicking the boosters. "We can always try again."
Alexis felt horrible though and Starscream saw this. He saw that she was blaming herelf for his malfunction and she hated not getting him fixed better. She was going to say something, but she was too mad at herself to do so and so she left Starscream.
"Hhh, Alexis," sighed Starscream as he watched her leave.
He then lookeded up at the sky and saw that some rain clouds had begun to hover overhead and so he knew it was time for the rain to fall. As it did so he looked back at the last place he saw Alexis and so just decided to leave her alone and let her get it out.
Alexis went back inside her house just hitting herself for #1 screwing up his boosters and #2 ruining that nice moment they were having. Alexis got all dressed up for nothing. Did he even notice to begin with? Why did she even think . . .
Alexis looked out her window and saw the rain begin. This only cast her mood down more. She just sighed and fell on her bed thinking of many things. There were so many things running through her mind at the time.
It almost brought tears to her at her thinking she could . . . she was a human and he . . . what was she thinking? Alexis closed her eyes and just wished it all to go away for ever she was embarrassed. As she tried to make it all go away only thoughts of him errupted in her mind and so she soon fell asleep thinking of him. She had not known how much time had passed, but she slept.
/I know I shouldn't love you/
/There's just too much to fake/
As there came the sound of a thunder clash Alexis awoke in a strange kind of sense. It was like she was still dreaming . . . was she? Well if she was there was no harm in going outside. She walked outside and felt the rain fall upon her skin.
It felt good but everything was still dream-like. She didn't mind at all this dream. Alexis then ran out into her forest and later found herself soaking wet and standing right before the wide meadow starring at Starscream who just sat against a tree. She saw him turn his head to her and she could barely see his ruby optics through the pouring rain.
The rain made her so wet that her dress showed the color of her skin underneath it, but Alexis didn't care. She still could not tell if this was a dream or not but to her it was a dream. Alexis came up to Starscream soaking wet just starring at him saying no word. He had done the same as he watched her come up to him.
/But you see me/
Alexis gasped as the cold ran fell upon her chest soaking through her white dress. Starscream wondered what she was doing as she came up to him. He bent down just watching her face movements closely when he had not noticed her hands being placed upon the sides of his face. Alexis had also not noticed Starscream's hand move to the side of Alexis' body feeling her smooth curves.
/And I feel you/
There were no words shared between the two just one thing . . . a kiss.
/And I'm not afraid/
Starscream leaned his head into hers and pressed his lips against hers and she wrapped her arms around his head.
/I'm not afraid/
This had to of been a dream thought Alexis as they held onto one another. Starscream would never do this for real . . . would he?
/And I bleed you since I've healed you/
/You pain escapes through me/
/'Cause I breathe you, but I hate you/
/'Cause they say we could never be/
Alexis woke up to find herself in her bed. She shot up at the rememberance of her strange dream. She looked around and so it appeared it had been a dream after all. This sadened her a bit, but it was better it to be a dream anyways. Alexis just sighed a sad, but understanding sigh.
/It seems the pain's been traded/
/Since I pulled you through/
/And now my mind's been so jaded/
"Alexis," came a familiar voice.
Alexis turned immediately to the sound of his voice and saw him at her window. She didn't know what came over her, but her body acted on her emotions and it was too late to think. Alexis ran to her open window where Starscream had pushed his face up against and wrapped her arms around his head in a flash and pressed her lips against his making Starscream's optics widen quite a bit.
/And I would kill myself for you/
/I'd die for you/
When Alexis had finally noticed what she had done she found herself taken out of her window and in the grasp of Starscream. She pulled back from him and only her heart sunk into nothingness seeing his face. She couldn't tell if it was shock or surprise or what. She was so embarrassed.
"Oh Starscream I am so sorry!" she cried throwing her face in her arms to hide her expression.
Starscream just used his slim finger to lift her chin up so she could look at him. Alexis couldn't tell why he was smiling so. Starscream just said-
"Next time just warn me when you do that again."
He then pulled Alexis to himself and kissed her.
/And I bleed you since I've healed you/
/Your pain escaped through me/
/'Cause I breathe you, but I hate you/
/'Cause they say we could never-/
Alexis fell limp in his grasp as he did this. It was as if she didn't control her own body. He did and now she knew she was all his.
/And I bleed you since I've healed you/
/But I hate you, but I breathe/
/And I see you/
/And I feel you/
/And I hate you/
/But I'd die for you/
Starscream then glared at Alexis with that smirk of his and so said-
"You know how much I hate you for making me feel this way."
"How much?" smiled Alexis.
"I loath you," smiled Starscream kissing her again.
"And I hate you more," smiled Alexis just falling on him.
/I'd die for you/
Alexis got very uncomfortable being in Starscream's metal grip, but she tried not to complain. Starscream could tell her uneasy body as she tried to get more comfortable and so Starscream knew what to do. Starscream went into the barn and placed her softly on the hay and there he had his way with her. Alexis liked the feeling as they kissed each other.
She had never really kissed anyone before. She had kissed a little boy when she was little, but then again . . . she was little when she did it. This was very different though. Even though he was not human he was different.
There was a sensation she got from kissing him that made her body fell tingly all over. It made her giggle but she liked the feeling very much. When Starscream kissed her softly it was like warm waves from his spark errupted in her body, but when he decided to kiss her harder the sensation made her body jump more. She liked it.
"I hate you so much right now," grinned Starscream between kisses just playing with her.
"No I do," smiled Alexis as the sensation she got from kissing him gave her goosebumps.
As they, in a way, made out in the hay they heard something come up to the farm, but what was it . . . or who was it?
"Starscream," came out a deep booming voice.
"Who is that?" asked Alexis as they turned to the doors from the barn.
"I might know," said Starscream leaving Alexis and heading to the doors.
"But be careful Starscream," said Alexis siting up.
Starscream turned to her and just smiled. He placed a finger on her lips and said-
"Aren't I always human?"
"I don't know robot," smiled Alexis.
Starscream then gave Alexis one last kiss and headed outside to see who it was. Alexis came up to listen just behind the door and so heard their conversation.
"It has been a long time Starscream," smiled Barricade placing his fists on his hips.
He then looked at Starscream, somewhat, repaired wounds and so said-
"What . . . a human fix you?"
"Very funny," said Starscream. "Did you send the signal?"
"Yes, as you said, Now it's time to get out of this place. How could you stand living here?" asked Barricade.
"This place isn't that bad Barricade," said Starscream. "Are you the only one that was left alive?"
"No, Skorponok should be coming as well," said Barricade.
As Alexis listened to them she felt the ground move under her feet and then out from it came this mechanical skorpion looking transformer. It looked at her and tried to attack her. Clearly it did not like humans. Alexis screamed and ran out beside Starscream alering everyone.
"Alexis!" said Starscream seeing how frightened she was.
"What . . . a human?! Kill it!!" said Barricade taking out his blades.
"NO!" growled Starscream blocking them both from hurting her. "You shall NOT harm her. She is under my protection."
"But Stascream," said Barricade.
"She is the one who tried to fix me, and she did a better job than any decepticon could to him eons!" he growled turning to Alexis and picking her up.
"Oh I see," grinned Barricade seeing the way the two were acting.
"Just mind your own business Barricade!" growled Starscream. "For now we shall wait for the others here and you two shall do as she says, do I make myself clear?!"
Barricade and Skorponok looked at Alexis in Starscream's grasp and so sighed and knew they had to obey him and so her as well.
"Yes my lord," sighed Barricade. "But when the others come we shall take revenge on the autobots for what they had done to Megatron."
"Yes we shall," said Starscream looking down at Alexis who seemed a bit confused and concerned about things. "Yes we shall."
Alexis soon knew Starscream was going to tell her many things when the time came. She was ready. She had to be.
