Prowl sat in his room trying, but failing, to meditate. He couldn't stop thinking about what Sari told him. He couldn't believe everyone knew about what he'd been doing with Bumblebee, and the yellow mech didn't tell the him about what happened with Sentinel, he didn't even tell the cyberninja he was upset. Everytime Prowl saw Bee before he seemed fine. Could it be he had faked being ok? Or was Sari mistaken? Prowl tried to talk to Bumblebee before when he was in his room but the yellow mech didn't respond. If Sari was correct then Bumblebee probably didn't want to talk to Prowl because he didn't want the 'secret' to be exposed.

Prowl let out a groan, he didn't want to confront Bee and make him more upset, but he didn't want Bee to be upset and get the wrong idea about his feelings for him.

'If I see that bastard Sentinel again I'll-' Prowl cut off his own thought and sighed.

'As much as I hate Sentinel right now I can't do anything... If I did I'd probably get into a lot of trouble... Not like I wasn't in trouble in the first place though, now everyone knows I've been sleeping with Bumblebee. Jazz was right, it is wrong to have feelings for Bee like this, to fool around with him, he's practically a child for Primus sake!' Prowl knew he needed to try and make these feelings for Bee go away.

'I can't put Bee through this... I can't do this to him... I know this feeling is wrong but then why is it still here? Why do I still want to do this to him? Why do I want to be with him? I shouldn't keep doing this, he deserves better, to be with someone his age... who won't put him through all this... Just if that happened, if he was with some one his age, some one other than me... I don't know what I'd do... I love him.' Prowl stood up from where he was sitting.

'If what Sari says is true, that Bumblebee has liked me this whole time, then that means that it wasn't the whole friends with benefits thing that made him like me... He actually fell in love with me for me... He chose to like me... Even if I stopped what was going on between us it wouldn't change anything, I would still love him and he would still love me.' Prowl now made his decision, even if it may be wrong he was going to be with Bee, he couldn't stand to be without him for one more day.

Prowl left his room looking for Bumblebee, no one else was at the base at the moment, they went into town earlier, so it probably would be easier to talk to Bumblebee alone about all this.

When Prowl entered the living room he saw someone on the couch crying, obviously upset. Prowl stopped in his tracks when he realized who it was. Bumblebee. The yellow mech was curled up on the couch covered with a blanket. Prowl was shooked he never saw Bumblebee cry before. There was a sharp pang of guilt in his spark, knowing he was the reason why Bumblebee was crying.

After a couple of minutes staring in shock Prowl walked over to the couch and sat next to Bumblebee. The yellow mech quickly realized someone was there and shot up from where he was sitting and looked over at Prowl.

"Prowl?" Bumblebee asked a little shakily as he wiped away his tears, not wanting Prowl to see him cry, but it was probably too late for that.

"Why didn't you tell me you're upset?" Prowl asked softly, he wasn't mad at Bee for not telling him, just a little dissappointed and sad that the yellow mech hadn't opened up to him.

"I... I don't want to talk about it Prowl..." Bumblebee said not looking at the older mech, trying to hold back tears.

"It's about what Sentinel said to you isn't it?" Prowl asked. Bumblebee stiffened a little and after a moment of silence he finally looked Prowl in the optics. The cyberninja hated Sentinel even more when he saw the yellow mech's oil stained optics.

"How did you find out about that?" Bumblebee asked surprised.

"Sari told me." Prowl told him. Bumblebee sighed.

"Of course..." He said looking away from Prowl again.

"Why did you let him get to that? Why... Why did you listen to him?" Prowl asked grabbing Bumblebee's servo. The yellow mech quickly yanked it away.

"I don't want to talk about it." He stated again, closing the older mech out.

"Why won't you talk about this?" Prowl asked Bee, starting to ge upset.

"Because what he said was true... And..." Bumblebee cut himself off and covered himself in the blanket again.

"Can't you just talk to me about it?" Prowl asked trying not to sound angry since at the moment he was pissed with Sentinel.

"I'm just your interface toy..." Bumblebee whispered. Prowl's spark sank when he heard this.

"You were right Prowl, okay, we shouldn't have done any of this, because now I'm in love with a bot I really shouldn't like, and he's never going to like me back! I-I'm breaking apart, Prowl, because... you don't love me back..." Bumblebee said sinking back into his blanket. Prowl put his arm around the yellow mech.

"Have you ever thought about talking to me before you assumed I didn't love you?" Prowl asked, the yellow mech turned to face the older mech.

"What?" Bumblebee asked as he searched Prowl's faceplate. The cyberninja grabbed Bumblebee's servo again, this time it wasn't yanked away.

"I think I said something about me loving you." Prowl said slyly, he laughed when the younger mech started to blush.

"Are you just messing with me?" Bumblebee asked, not wanting to let his gaurd down.

"No Bee, I love you... I really actually love you. And I..." Prowl started, Bumblebee leaned closer to him.

"Yes?" He asked the stuttering mech.

"I-I, uh, I was just wondering..." Prowl started scratching the back of his helm, he knew he had to get this over with, no matter how humiliating it may be it would pay off, he'd finally be able to know Bee was his.

"Will you be my mech friend?" Prowl blurted out, Bumblebee smiled.

"This is really happening, you're really asking me this?" Bumblebee asked Prowl just nodded in responce. The yellow mech then tackled the cyberninja in a hug.

"Yes!" Bumblebee said cheerfully. Prowl smiled and kissed the yellow mech, happy to finally be with the yellow mech. The cyberninja had a feeling things around the base would now be a lot more interesting, he doubted Optimus would be happy about this though. The leader didn't want things like this going on between two team members, he even objected to Sari and Bulkhead going out together at first. The two together may be unwelcomed to the leader, Prowl's second in command position may even end up at stake, but the cyberninja didn't care, as long as he had Bee he'd be happy.
